Ah.
I'd assumed it was an offhand remark at a con or something.
One too many people asked "What happened to Hikaru, Misa, and Minmay? You know, AFTER Hikaru married Misa and they all left on the Megaroad?" "They all fell in a black hole or something. Can we talk about something else now?"
More politely than that, of course, but...
'Course, the late-80s/early-90s games were all non-canon anyways. Fun though they may be.
Kinda odd that Komillia's only MENTION as something larger than a football is non-canon video games, but...
I've had that happen to me before too.
