I call imposters, the Biolabs party are First/Trans classes. =V
Unless of course they got to take and pass the 3rd class tests over in jRO.
EDIT: Oh god they did pass their 3rd class tests. Run for the hills. Σ(゚Д゚ )
They passed their tests both in jRO and kRO, since that update exists on kRO, too... it's the profiles/personalities that are jRO canon-only! ;p
It's pretty weird, either way - up to this point, the lore seemed to imply that the purpose of the experiments conducted in Regenschirm was to find an artificial way to transcend. What's the point, if they were 3rd classes already...?
And thus was born the kRO canon and the jRO canon. Take your pick.
With one being actual content, and the other pretty much *cicada noises*... I think it's not too hard to choose.
