In order to help Haruo reunite with Oono, the Game Characters (High Score Girl) transcended their fictional state, allowing them to...
...physically effect reality to prevent any obstructions, obstacles, or people from stopping him, and....
...even physically manifest and appear in reality itself in front of everyone, despite originally being confined to fiction and people's imagination.
Jot (Plucky Squire) transcended into the real world once Humgrump expelled him from the picture book he originated.
