Throught the series, I have noticed a pattern used over and over again. It's three circles in the shape of a triangle. It is on the metal band on Kirito's left arm most of the time he is trapped in SAO (even while wearing the KoB uniform), on his shoulder guard durning ALO, and appears on the band again and across his chest during GGO. The shape is also in Sinon's hairclips, and all over the Divine Dragon Alliance's armor and shields.

Is it simply a design that is well liked by the artists or is there a deeper meaning to it? For as many times as it shows up, I feel it has to be a referance to something.

(Also on a side note, does it remind anyone else of a bowling ball?)
