    Yeah, it’s kind of like someone (presumably the light novel author) said, “Hmm, should I just put a timeskip here until the next big bad comes along? But then the series will be shorter and I’ll lose money . . . oh, wait, orphans in these stories always turn out to have some kind of important background, right?”
