What Does the “O” mean, if anything?

    Here’s a discussion topic nobody has brought up yet. When the trailers and posters show the fancy title for Acolyte, the letter “O” is blue and glowing. What does this represent? A time portal? A round window? A magic ring of power? Got any ideas?

    In the past, there has been strong visual/artistic significance for title choices. For example, the Ahsoka tv show featured a background image of a map (which obviously featured a map in the show’s plot.) Andor’s title featured a hidden image of the Rebel Alliance symbol.

    You know, it stands out that even in the Korean trailer released this weekend that the O is prominent. My Korean is a little rusty( ok, non existent...) But is that character the proper one in the Language? It stands out as different...

    Just because I'm a big nerd...

    The "o" letter is a natural occurrence in the Korean name, 애콜라이트, possibly signifying an "ng" sound or a no-sound (stop?). But I have no clue beyond what little I understand from what Wikipedia tells me :rolleyes:


    As for what the fancy circle means, I haven't an inkling... But perhaps there's some "(coming full) circle" motif going on here?
