Fake Arle (EntityTopic, 13)
From Compile Worlds
Not to be confused with Doppelganger Arle, Dark Arle, or Zeta.
Fake Arle is exactly what it says on the tin, a fake version of Arle Nadja. She first appeared in Episode 16, where she appeared out of nowhere while Lagnus the Brave was trying to confess his love for the real Arle. Out of universe, the only way to tell it wasn't the real Arle was that her surname was not displayed. Lagnus, however, seemed to know which one was the real one anyway, and Fake Arle took off with Satan in a rocket retrofitted with a giant cake. Sometime before the rocket broke the atmosphere, Satan also realized she was fake, and left her stranded on the rocket.
Many, many arcs later, in Episode 40, Fake Arle appears as a decoy for the real Arle during the epic battle with Satan's team, tricking everyone into thinking the real Arle entered the arena and was disqualified before she actually was. After scoffing at Satan and attempting to sway him again, she takes off in her cake rocket. She hasn't been seen since, and presumably was in space when Ecolo blasted Primp into itty bitty pieces. Mysteriously, she appeared in a miniepisode recently. Here she asked Strigina Reuiss to tell Mikki and her party to rendezvous with Camus at the Dragon Temple in order to seal away one of the Puyo Spirits. She also passes along Clocger to the would-be magic teacher, to pass along to Mikki. She exits the scene calling Stringy a scapegoat.
She later appears in yet another, as of the time of writing undocumented episode, where we flashed back to the Ekoro Arc. Here, it is revealed that she suggested that Omega had a flaw in her design. Further more, she called the original Zeta, "Dark Amitie", a "vessel", revealing at least one of the clones was commissioned by her. Ekoro promptly apologizes for the destruction of the original Zeta, blaming it on Alpha, though Alpha claims to have not sabotaged it. Fake Arle then deals with Ekoro to make a new ultimate clone, Perfect Arle, to make up for it. Ekoro assures her that he will personally ensure the quality of the new Zeta vessel. She then mysteriously vanished.
