The Grand Line, and after that the New World.\n\nThe navy has coverage in all of these areas to some extent but they can't be\neverywhere. Their army is not infinite nor is the bulk of the issue caused by\npirates.\n\nIf you recall in the Sabody island arc (right after fishman island) not only\nwas there a more heavy appearance of the navy but there also were way stronger\nmembers who were in the area.\n\nWhy? Because in the new world there is a higher priority due to several things\n(the tenryubito, the 4 yonkou, etc).\n\nNaturally there need to be marines all over but they can't just set up a tent\nin one place. They need to be dispersed, but in a way where they have the bulk\nof their force where they need it most. Which is why the grand line is\nessentially uncamped.\n\nLastly, recall that it takes great skill to even cross the red-line most ships\neither crash into the mountain side or get devoured by sea kings either\nimmediately before or immediately after crossing. I imagine the risk vastly\noutweighs the reward\n\n",

"body": "\n\nPrimary reason is **because not all pirates are from the 4 Seas**. Many\npirates are hail from the Grandline themselves. If they are weak they leave\nGrandline and make themselves home in other parts of the ocean. A good Example\nis Arlong who left Grandline to conquer East Blue or Lola who escaped from\n\"New World\" into \"paradise\".\n\nNavy also takes into consideration a variety of factors.\n\n * **Pirates eliminate each other**. Luffy didn't fight marines initially except Captain Morgan and then Smoker. He however eliminated other heavyweights of East Blue. Saved Marine the trouble. Thus stopping new pirates from entering the Grand Line may be proved counterproductive.\n\n * **Shichibukai**. The warlord system has worked well for the World Government. Pirates entering the Grandline are young and immature but only the strongest survive to reach the Redline. Thus The establishment of Marine Triangle near Sabaody Archipelago. They can stop the pirates their as well\n\n * **Marines True Purpose**. The true purpose of Marines isn't controlling the pirates. The pirates are dangerous because they are after the \"truth\". It is heavily foreshadowed that One Piece would reveal the details of Void Century and how World Government was formed. Hence the best of these are near the New World\n\n * **Tenryubitto**. The protection of \"Gods\" is also a much more important task. Hence we see Marine captains are of all types some of which routinely oppress citizens, are corrupt and don't care for the average people. Hence, the rise of Piracy and Banditry\n\nThe situation however is not completely like that. The marine implements what\nyou've tried to ask. Try to think of the reason why Smoker was deployed at\nLogue Town. It was because being the last island before entering the grand\nline pirates would flock there to resupply before entering the grand line. We\nalso see how he captures numerous pirates before they even enter grand line. A\nLogia powered captain can easily capture pirates worth 100 Million I believe.\n\n",

Unlimited ki has\nappeared in Dragon Ball before too, Androids 17 & 18 were stated to have such\nan ability. Thus, given the precedence and the dialogue we've seen in regards\nto the form, I can say with absolute certainty that the answer is \"probably\".\n\n",

Also, the narration mentioned how \"normal\" his\ninitial play was, compared to his genius plays in the future, so you can think\nof it as him only starting to warm up.\n\nThat being said, let me explain mahjong a little more. Those tiles aren't\n\"bonus\" tiles, just plain dragon tiles. While it is an easy way to get a yaku,\nstealing a tile also has its demerits, such as the inability to call Reach,\nreducing the worth of your hand, exposing part of your hand and being marked\nby the other players. Nangou's tendency to go with the easiest hand\nillustrates that he is a run-of-the-mill mahjong player, in contrast to Akagi,\nwho has some sort of game plan going in his mind that normal people could\nnever imagine. Perhaps Akagi had a feeling that stealing a tile would not lead\nto victory. I do think that most normal players would've stolen that first\nchun (including me), which means we could never be Akagi.\n\n",

{
"body": "\n\nThe first anime or manga to have all the elements of the harem genre is\n[Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenchi_Muyo!_Ryo-Ohki)\n(OVA anime: 1992). It has multiple female characters pursuing the same male\nlead, a constant presence in his life, in this case living with him in the\nsame house. Like most examples of this genre the main character acquired his\nharem accidentally and doesn't actually want all these women pursuing him.\nAlso like many examples of the genre the female characters are very\nextraordinary, far from ordinary Japanese girls.\n\nYou can see the origins of the genre in other manga and anime series that had\nmany of the same tropes but never put them all together. For example [Oh My\nGoddess!](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oh_My_Goddess!) (manga: 1988, OVA\nanime: 1993) has three goddesses living in the same house with the main\ncharacter, although only one is interested him romantically. [Ranma\n1/2](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranma_%C2%BD) (manga: 1987, TV anime: 1989)\nhas a main character with a number of different suitors over the course of the\nlong series, both female and male, but they don't form a harem as most of\nthese characters only make occasional appearances.\n\nA likely influence of harem genre is the reverse harem genre. While you'd\nthink from its name the reverse harem genre came later, the trope of a woman\nwith many suitors is probably old as storytelling. The [suitors of\nPenelope](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suitors_of_Penelope) in the\n[Odyssey](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odyssey) (ca. 700 BC) were 108 men who\npursued Penelope, the wife of the presumed dead Odysseus, while all living\ntogether in his home. While the Odyssey probably wasn't a direct influence on\nthe genre, shoujo romance series like [Fushigi\nYuugi](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fushigi_Y%C3%BBgi) (manga: 1992, TV\nanime: 1995) and [Hanasakeru\nSeishounen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanasakeru_Seish%C5%8Dnen) (manga:\n1987, TV anime 2009) have pretty much all the elements you'd expect in the\nharem genre except with the male/female roles exchanged.\n\nAnother possible influence would be love triangles appearing various male\noriented series like [Maison\nIkkoku](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maison_Ikkoku) (manga: 1980, TV anime:\n1986) and [Kimagure Orange\nRoad](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimagure_Orange_Road) (manga: 1984, TV\nanime: 1987). Yet another possible influence are dating sim and ren'ai visual\nnovel games were the player can pursue one or more of a number different love\ninterests. While the structure is different, when these games get turned into\nanime shows they're often become harem anime.\n\nAs for why the harem genre is popular it's hard to say. The obvious answer is\nthat it provides the stereotypical shy-with-women male otaku with a sort of\nescapism and wish fulfillment they can't get from other genres. However I\ndon't think it would be as popular if it was just that. I think subverting the\nage old trope of a woman with many suitors is a big part. It provides a lot\ncomedic potential in what in real life would seem absurd: a number of always\nattractive and usually exceptional women all openly pursing the same ordinary\nlooking usually kind of awkward guy.\n\n",

As far as we know Dragon was not\ninvolved in that scenario and the reason why he survived is because of his\nincredibly high luck.\n\nTo answer speculatingly, There is some suspicion that this luck stems from the\nfact that he carries the \"Will of D\" whereas he must be an integral person to\nchange the world.\n\nThe truth is however, given that he series is still in production (and\nprobably will be for some time).

I compared the anime and manga and realized a few differences;\n\n## The Storm\n\nAnime messed the timing, they probably were not expecting the \"Will of D\" at\nthis time. Nami noticed the storm before Luffy was pinned at the execution\nstand (Chapter 98). In the Anime, Nami noticed the storm after Luffy was\npinned (Episode 52). Leading me to consider the storm was either natural or if\nDragon was a fruit-eater (only an one-piece fan would understand \"fruit-\neater\") it was unintentional.\n\n## The Gust\n\nIt is obvious Dragon saved Luffy from Smoker. Anime makes it look like Dragon\ncaused the Gust which freed Buggy, Alvida and the Mugi-wara (Straw hat) crew\n(Episode 53). However in the Manga (Chapter 100), the gust seems to have\ncaught even Dragon by surprise.\n\n## Not-So-Important Detail\n\nWhen Smoker pins Luffy, he tells Luffy that \"Luffy's luck has run out\" in the\nManga (Chapter 100), but Smoker says his own bad luck has ended in the Anime\n(Episode 53)\n\nTherefore I think the lightning which saved Luffy was Coincidental, \"Will of\nD\" or \"Luck\"\n\n",

Whenever Dragon\nis shown, the wind is blowing or there is a storm, meaning he probably\nconsumed a mythical zoan devil fruit of which are said to have the ability to\ncontrol the weather just like sengoku or marco. To further prove this, When\nsmoker found out dragon was luffys father he said “that explains what happened\nat loguetown” most likely talking about when luffy was saved from execution by\na bolt of lightning which sanji called “divine intervention”\n\nDragon is also seen always wearing some kind of robe covering his body\nprobably to protect him from the constant rain or wind\n\nOf course this is all a theory but it makes sense if it were true. Or maybe\nDragon ate another devil fruit which allows him to control wind, or he was\njust strong enough to have his presence change the weather like when shanks\nand whitebeard clashed\n\nIf his name was meant to be taken literally i wouldnt be suprised if he can\ntransform into a dragon like kaido (a blue dragon, dragons powers are green)\n\n",

"body": "\n\nOk, so I will be referring to the boys as the following: Lord Ciel (LC), and\nYoung Master (YM, our Ciel).\n\nSo let me start from the beginning with all of this until when the fire was\nhappening. After discovering his parents' dead body, YM rushes to find help.\nHe finds Tanaka, and Tanaka seems quite shocked. So in the scene where Tanaka\nis telling YM to escape, the translation from Japanese to English is \"Please\nescape, Ciel sir it's too risky for you.\" However, in the Japanese, it reads\n\"Please escape young master! Something has happened to lord Ciel.\"\n\nSo there's that, after YM and LC are taken an auctioned off. Whilst paying for\nYM and LC, the man says \"This is worth more than two people\" This could\nsuggest either YM is rare because he's a noble, or both YM and LC are noble so\nthey're worth more than two people together!\n\nIf we go ahead to the next visual, we had the prison which would be when they\nwere in Germany and YM was cursed and poisoned. If I remember correctly, he\nimagines a scene where he is in the cage, holding his brother's (LC) hand,\nspeaking in past tense saying \"I still had you.\" Eventually, we see LC being\ndragged to the altar for sacrifice, as YM calls out \"Ciel\" proving the boy who\nwas killed is the real Ciel Phantomhive. YM is still in the cage, watching\ndistressed! After witnessing his brother's death, YM knows he has nothing\nleft. This completes the two terms for summoning a demon; a person willing to\ngive up their soul for a wish (YM) and the price to cross the river (LC), thus\nSebastian appears.\n\nThe only reason this was successful, was because the cultists weren't prepared\nto sacrifice their own souls; only the souls of children. As Sebastian states,\nif you cannot sacrifice your soul, you cannot summon a demon. Sebastian takes\nLC's soul that was given to him so he could appear. This is why Sebastian gave\nYM the choice of the contract because Sebastian had already been paid. As\nexpected, YM sacrifices his own soul for power. After all the killing of the\nchildren (classic _Kuroshitsuji_ scene), Sebastian asks YM what his name is.\nYM pauses for a second looking at LC's dead body, with which he replies; Ciel\nPhantomhive.\n\nThe next one isn't easy to explain, but I'm going to try because it really\nproves my point.\n\n\n\nSo remember this boy that was addressed as Ciel. Notice the bruise underneath\nhis eye. If you look through the flashbacks, you will notice this is a\nconstant detail for the altar boy, but the boy who made the contract does not\nhave a bruise under his eye and never did have. That is the only reason we\nknow that YM is not Ciel. Once YM tells Sebastian he is Ciel, Sebastian gives\na slight laugh while saying \"very well\", therefore proving he knew YM was\nlying. Time skip to a bit later, Sebastian calls YM out saying, \"You told me\nnot to lie, but you seem to be quite the liar yourself.\" YM glares at\nSebastian saying \"Shut up, you have no right to bring that up,\" so the\nflashback ends here\n\nSo in conclusion,\n\n 1. LC is killed, used as the price to summon a demon \n 2. With YM also willing to sacrifice his own soul, a demon appears. \n 3. YM is offered a choice because the demon was already paid.\n\nBut that leaves one issue, why would YM take the name \"Ciel Phantomhive\"?\nWell, it's important to note, YM was the youngest twin, not the heir to the\nPhantomhive name, LC was. YM was also sick as a child whilst LC was outgoing\nand healthy, but that alone isn't the reason. LC seemed to get more attention\nthan YM, Lizzy even states \"Madam Red loved Ciel the most out of all of us\"\n(the online version isn't translated correctly), which is a major blow to\nanyone's confidence, so the ideas of why YM took the name \"Ciel\" are:\n\n 1. YM was the son who would never really get anything\n 2. Nobody seems to like him as much as his outgoing healthy brother. Madam Red, Lizzy, Baron Kelvin\n 3. So perhaps he takes his brother's name so people will not see him as weak, and respect him more. \n 4. Or the guilt he feels that his brother deserved to live, not him. YM feels it would have been better if LC came back instead of him.\n\nThere are too many reasons to nail one down right now, we don't have enough\ninformation, but YM does seem to have survivor's guilt:\n\n\n\nFrustratingly, YM is interrupted before we know who he is speaking of, but\nit's most likely LC. In chapter 25, in YM's dream, he states he doesn't want\nthe dead (LC) to forgive him. It shows he _believes_ LC's death is on his\nhands.\n\nThat's all I have right now.\n\n",

As for\nthe powder, probably a custom mix that would resemble pyrotechnic powders.\nAlso: all it needs is a twelve gauge barrels strength and you are good to go.\nAlthough the recoil would force the gun back lightly. The weapon is so\noverbuilt that the overall recoil would be low, as it is many times heavier\nthan even the most overbuilt 12 gauge. Heavier weapon frame=less recoil.\n\n",

To answer the second part of your question I am going to\nhave to say that they used SAW logic with Master Mavis. To explain in more\ndetail in case you aren't familiar with the SAW franchise, it revolves around\na character named John Kramer who is a civil engineer who is very talented at\npredicting human nature and sets up conditions and anticipates how people will\nreact, from his deductions he creates elaborate plans and traps and watches as\npeople make all the moves he predicted. Master Mavis was dubbed the \"Fairy\nTactician\" because she was able to predict human nature giving her a very good\nidea of how people would react to their circumstances and then she formed her\nplans based on how she believed everyone would react to the battle royal and\nfor the most part it played off; we do see, however, that she was not able to\npredict the 3 way battle of Erza, Kagura, and Minerva as she has a mental\nbreakdown that she failed to predict Minerva would interfere however for the\nmost part she predicted where the opponents would head to and when they would\nhead to where they were going.\n\n",

(Shang\nTsung vs Akuma was my first one).\n\nWith that being said, they are wrong on more than a couple occasions about\ncertain capabilities because they don't seperate canon/non-canon when they do\nthese battles.\n\nCanonically, android 17 and 18 do not have this capability. It is a bit of\nconfusion regarding it because it never appeared in any of the anime (I cannot\nvouch for the manga). This is because they are a fundamentally different\nseries of machines designed differently from the others on a core level. I\nwon't spoil what those are but lets just say _they are more human than you\nthink_.\n\nAside from that in Xenoverse and Xenoverse 2 they did add that skill to their\nmovesets for continuity of the android type characters. Personally, I hate\nthat decision. It was a bad design choice and only adds more to the fact that\nyou can't trust games as cannnon to anime and manga.\n\nFact of the matter is, their analysis is ok given that they did (probably, I\nhaven't watched the newest one yet) cite the games as a resource that they\nused. But just because it's cited doesn't make it canon.\n\nLastly, I'd like to give a shoutout to Dbzfan's answer for bringing this\nquestion into more visibility for me. And include some links\n\n1)<https://www.reddit.com/r/CharacterRant/comments/6h9hgy/android_18_can_absorb_energy_even_though_she_is_a/>\n\n2)<http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Energy_Absorption>\n\n",

"body": "\n\nThe existing answers have an element of truth, but let me just clarify\nslightly.\n\nWhy does Hayama Hayato feel inferior to Hachiman? It's actually quite simple:\nhe's a born winner and he hates losing. This can be seen when Hachiman runs\ntogether with Hayama and tries to find out what subjects he'll take. Hayama\nflat out ignores Hachiman and again uses the line \" _I hate feeling inferior\nto you, I'll do things my way and I'll win because that's who I am._ \"\n\nHayama has always won; best at sports, popular, good looks, good academia.\nHowever, what happened after the summer camp is the most important tell-tale:\nHayama came over to Hachiman with a drink and sat down next to him saying \"\n_You were right, I hate to say... However I don't think we could have been\nfriends in school._ \"\n\nWhy is the question? Well, Hachiman proved Hayama's attitude towards people is\nwrong. Hayama believes in the good in people and believed that if he tried to\ndo what Hachiman wanted to \"destroy the children's relationships so they all\nhate each other\", then the plan would fail and the kids would all help each\nother. Sadly, they didn't (well Rumi did but the other kids didn't). Instead,\nthey're throwing each other to the lions and trying to save themselves.\nHachiman proved him wrong and won, Hayama acknowledged that but hates it.\n\nIt's well known Hayama loves Haruno. However, Haruno doesn't feel the same way\ndue to her caring attitude towards Yukino. They were all in the same school.\nHowever, we know Yukino got bullied, Hayama refused to help her, and Haruno\nresents him for that (and therefore will never love Hayama in the same way).\nHachiman did what he could never do: helped Yukino when she needed it. By\ntaking on all the work (which an overworked Yukino was unable to do) he made\nthe festival a success and Yukino applauded his work (which Hayama hated).\n\nSo yeah, it's two fold:\n\n 1. He can't stand to lose in particular when his own attitude towards people is shown to be false and Hachiman's pessimistic attitude is more often right then not.\n 2. He resents Hachiman because he's unable to get close to Haruno due to her resentment over Yukino, whereas Yukino openly applauded Hachiman and accepted him into her fold which Hayama failed to do.\n\n",

I'm talking about how not only do you\nget the knowledge of the clone when it disperses, but you also get the clones\nfatigue. Sure you can make 9 clones and train for 1 hour then disperse them\nand get the knowledge benefit of training for 10 hours, but you also get the\nsudden fatigue of doing 10 hours worth of work in under 1 hour.\n\nNaruto has extremely fast healing and a lot of stamina/chakra due to Kurama\nand his own natural ability (son of Minato and reincarnation of Ashura), but\neven he passed out from having too many clones just cutting 1 leaf in their\nhand then disperse ( _Shippuden_ ep. 73).\n\nDue to the fatigue transfer, I think Sasuke may have been worried that it\nwould affect the lifespan of his eyes before he got the Eternal Mangekyo\nSharingan. Afterward, I think he just felt he didn't need the technique, plus\nhe associated it with Naruto and his fear of loneliness.\n\nWith Kakashi, he just uses so many chakra techniques and would copy techniques\non the fly, so it was almost always a better move to keep his chakra pool as\nlarge as possible to be able to use whatever technique he would need, and he\ndoesn't have the chakra or stamina of either adult Sasuke or Naruto.\n\n",

"body": "\n\nReversing a person's bioelectricity would result in that person's death.\nAccelerator has demonstrated his ability to manipulate bioelectricity several\ntimes in canon. My first example is in volume 5 of the light novels of _A\nCertain Magical Index_ , when he manipulates Last Order's bioelectricity to\nerase the virus. There are also references to reversing a person's bioelectric\nfield.\n\nFrom pages 148-149 of the Yen Press edition of volume 5 (emphasis mine):\n\n> He had so much power, but all he could think of was **blowing people up** by\n> touching their skin and **reversing** their blood or **bioelectric field**\n> \\- \n> ... \n> \n> If he could reverse the direction of somebody's blood flow and bioelectric\n> field just by touching their skin... \n> ... \n> \n> \"Hey, If I can control her brain's electrical impulses, I can mess with her\n> personality data without having to use a Testament, right?\" \n> ... \n> \n> \"There's nothing I can't do. **I killed people by reversing** their blood\n> flow and **electric fields** just by touching their skin during that\n> experiment, yeah? I can reflect stuff already, so it's not strange that I\n> can go beyond and control it.\"\n\nHere, Accelerator confirms that he has killed people by reversing their\nelectric fields, and implies that they exploded.\n\nIn the _A Certain Scientific Accelerator_ manga volume 4, Accelerator\ndemonstrates his ability to mess with someone's bioelectric field(he doesn't\nsay anything about reversing it, however). In chapter 17, Accelerator messes\nwith the bioelectricity of one of the members of Scavenger, Seike, knocking\nSeike unconscious. Accelerator's dialogue from the scene:\n\n> Did you know there's something called bioelectricity that runs inside human\n> bodies? I'm gonna mess with it a little, heh. Enjoy!\n\nThe subsequent panels show electricity radiating from Seike's body. Blood\nerupts from Seike's nose and ears, saliva drips from the mouth, and the eyes\nroll up. The end result is Seike unconscious, with a look of anguish.\n\nFinally, volume 3 of _A Certain Magical Index_ references this ability. From\npage 189:\n\n> Those hands could alter the vector of anything they touched... For example,\n> a simple stroke of the skin would allow him to reverse the flow of blood in\n> [Kamijou's] veins or the direction of the bioelectric field around his body-\n> either way, the person's heart would explode.\n\nHere it is implied that reversing a person's bioelectricity will cause their\nheart to explode.\n\n",

Implying some sort of double entendre,\nlikely implying illicit intercourse.\n\nI can't comment much on the style of writing in particular, but overall such\nan abstruse wording is not uncommon in literary Japanese.

Sukutte Moratte Ii Desu ka?_\n(終末なにしてますか? 忙しいですか? 救ってもらっていいですか?), commonly called **SukaSuka** ) is a\ncurrently airing anime of Spring 2017. It should be obvious from the title\nthat the author is very particular and non-traditional with their word usage.\nAs strange as it sounds, the title of the series fits excellently. The English\nsub translation has flowed very well.\n\nHowever something in [episode 8](http://www.crunchyroll.com/worldend-what-do-\nyou-do-at-the-end-of-the-world-are-you-busy-will-you-save-us/episode-8-slight-\nlight-slight-hope-733689) struck me as odd at time mark 14:00 (if watch, start\n30 seconds earlier for context). Willem, the main character is speaking with\nChtholly, who is in love with him. He is defending himself from light\njealousy. When she counters an argument of his with an alternative case, he\nsays with wit and resignation:\n\n> **Defenestrated in two seconds flat.**\n\nI did not know what\n\"[defenstrated](https://www.google.com/search?safe=off&q=defenestrated)\" meant\n(basically, in this context, he acknowledges she has completely dismissed his\nargument and admits defeat.) It is not often I need to look up a word while\nwatching anime, and on top of that figure out how that word fits the\nsituation.\n\nWhat I wonder now is if the translator used \"defenestrated\" as simply a\nliteral translation of a Japanese word, without any real thought. My suspicion\nis the opposite, that this is a contextual translation which would probably\nseem just as odd (and as oddly appropriate) in Japanese as it does in English.\nWhat kind of translation was it, and does it carry the Japanese intent well?\n\n# Update\n\nHotelCalifornia (HC) further researched this question, and it turns out my\noriginal interpretation of \"Defenestrated in two seconds flat.\" was incorrect.\nI had assumed the meaning to be [My argument was dismissed in two seconds\nflat.] As HC learned in the Japanese SE, a much better meaning uses a\ndifferent subject and adds an object (both absent in the literal Japanese as\nwell). So a translation that better fits conversation flow is:\n\n> I would have thrown Nygglatho out the window in two seconds.\n\n(Nygglatho is the attractive female adult leader of the \"warehouse\", and\nChtholly had just asked what Willem would have done if she had crept onto the\ncouch where he was sleeping, instead of the teenage female who had actually\ndone so.) So the primary meaning for **defenestrated** was the proper one, not\nthe figurative meaning of **dismiss**.\n\n",

The name \"Mr.A\" is in the notebook so it should work but I am\npretty sure that Light or Ryuk called it impossible.\n\nOut of canon I understand that Kira is an OP puppet master even without the\nability of blaiming specific persons for a homocide he commited (just think\nabout what would have happened if one member of the task force shoot another\none and get shot on his own so that light now has a gun and human shilds to\nkill L withuout deathnote or eye witnesses) but in canon there should be no\nreason why it should not work.\n\n",

"body": "\n\n> If Lelouch is still alive after the Zero Requiem (which he probably is\n> because of the appearance of the third season)\n\nWe know now that there won't be a third season, the announced new project is a\nmovie which is part of the alternate universe which was created by the trilogy\nwhich were released during the past year.\n\nAs for Lelouch being alive in that movie, yes that is true. However, we\nmustn't forget the context of this. Lelouch was officially confirmed dead by\nthe show staff, and that's why the name of the sequel is \"Lelouch of the\n**Resurrection** \", because he will be resurrected from the grave.\n\nSo to answer your question about C.C.:\n\n 1. In the original series, she's alive and mourning Lelouch's death, but she comforts herself knowing that Lelouch has died to achieve his goals, the Zero Requiem. This can be seen in [the remade epilogue from 2009](https://streamable.com/d8dji).\n 2. In the new and alternate universe, she's alive and mourning Lelouch's death, BUT it seems she is not willing to accept his fate and will resurrect him. How exactly she will do that will be known once the movie is released in Japanese theaters in February 2019.\n\nIn case you're wondering about Lelouch being dead, this has been officially\nconfirmed many times by the show creators, but not many English speaking fans\nseem to know that because these interviews, the official guidebook, the live\ncommentaries, etc were all in Japanese. [There's a post on Reddit which has\ngathered all the official\nstatements](https://www.reddit.com/user/GeassedbyLelouch/comments/8hklfr/evaluating_code_theory_main_body_index/)\nand translated them, all with links, sources, and pictures. That post also\nshows that the anime itself contradicts code theory, it's impossible for\nLelouch to have the code. Going into detail here is too far removed from your\nquestion, if you're interested you can read the Reddit post.\n\nI will, however, give 1 example of the official statements where they confirm\nLelouch to be dead: the tweets by the show staff.\n\n * \"Before I started writing the story of a person called Lelouch, I confirmed with Taniguchi-director something. That thing was that **the end of Lelouch will be death.** \" \n * \"At least he is aware of his sins and pays for them with **his death**.\" \n * \"This man called Lelouch will pay for his sins by **his death**. The story follows him till he finally make this decision.\" \n * \"Probably this Lelouch we see in the first episode of the series wouldn't **choose death**. He would try something to avoid it. He couldn't **die** , for Nunnally as well. But we see him changed in the last episode.\" \n\nYou can find these tweets on [their\ntwitter](https://twitter.com/ichirou_o/status/998739675895365633)\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/xM45B.png)\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/3pLsQ.png)\n\n",

Characters such as Norah Arendt and Eve\nBoland seem to have their familiar names first. Unlike Lawrence, Norah and Eve\nare both more commonly referred to by their first names rather than their\nlast. My confusion is further legitimized by the third volume of the _Spice\nand Wolf_ manga. In the bonus manga at the end, set in Japan, Lawrence is\nintroduced thusly:\n\n> Young Master Lawrence of the House of Kraft.\n\nThis sidestory is obviously not canonical and not authoritative, but still\nserves to muddy the issue.

"body": "\n\n[This video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ksyHccgEEU) explains why US\nadult animation is almost always comedic. US animation studios transferred\ntheir efforts to television in the years following Hollywood's anti-trust case\n(which meant future shorts were less likely to be assured of theatrical\nreleases), but this was only cost-effective if the animation style was\nsimplified and the content made child-friendly enough for extensive ad-heavy\nre-runs. With the exception of a 1972 series, adult TV animation waited until\n_The Simpsons_. Although this series was a risky investment, lessons learned\nfrom its rapid success allowed a transition from expecting adult animation to\nbe unviable to expecting it to be viable as long as it was comedic, preferably\nin a sitcom format.\n\nClearly, adult anime is in a very different situation and has been for\ndecades. (One need only look at the lists\n[here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Lists_of_anime).) The reason, in\nshort, is that the historical factors mentioned above are unique details of US\nhistory. A similar overview of the history of Japanese animation, both\ncinematic and televisual, would sound completely different and make sense of\nthe diverse range of adult anime that resulted, including in the present day.\n\nSo my question is: what are the key details of that history? (If it's an\ninappropriate question here, I might move it to History.SE instead.)\n\nEdit for requested clarity: I'm referring to work with an adult target\naudience, without specific implications of sexual or violent content (though\nthese could well apply in some cases).\n\n",

Madara never said that it can be a MS ability, nor Zetsu told him\nanything. Also, Kakashi figured about the Kamui much later. How did Obito\nfigure out how to use the ability without training?\n\n",

Obito gave up his life to save both of them from All-killing ash\nbones of Kaguya .\n\nThe major turning point within the battle came when kaguya got hit by the\nNaruto's Rasenshuriken . Taken From Wikia[Naruto Shippuden]:\n\n[code]\n\n After getting hit by Naruto's tailed beast powered Rasenshuriken, the Ten-\n Tails' chakra within her reacted violently to the chakra of the other \n tailed beasts, transforming her into a rabbit-like chakra monster, which \n according to Black Zetsu was a form she couldn't control. \n \n[/code]\n\nNow the battle went downhill after this , when hagoromo and hamura fought\nkaguya there was no concept of the tailed beasts being separate , but during\nthese two thousand years they had spawned from the ten tailed beast and had\ngained experiences and fought in wars . so when naruto hit her with the\nrasenshuriken , she was in the unstable state wherein she was being attacked\nboth from outside and inside [ the tailed beasts started resisting there\ncapture] and it was soon after this weakened moment that they were able to\nseal her .

Through her actions, she formed a bond with\nthem, and the umbilical cord basically serves as a reminder of that exact\nconnection.\n\n**By the way, Sarada's parentage indeed isn't debatable anymore.**\n\nHer true parentage was already officially confirmed, and this happened for the\nfirst time all the way back in 2015 in the manga called _\" Naruto Gaiden: The\nSeventh Hokage and the Scarlet Spring\"_. Following this, the confirmations\nfrom the manga were animated in the anime _\" Boruto: Naruto Next\nGenerations\"_, and after this they were even strengthened in many other\nepisodes.\n\nBelow, there are all the canon panels/moments that serve as confirmations\nabout Sarada's real parentage.\n\n**The confirmations offered by Sakura:**\n\n * In the manga ( _\" Naruto Gaiden: The Seventh Hokage and the Scarlet Spring\"_, chapter 10):\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/t3hoj.png)\n\n * In the anime (first confirmation - _\" Boruto: Naruto Next Generations\"_, episode 23):\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/cUGoO.png)\n\n * Also in the anime (a whole lot more confirmations - _\" Boruto: Naruto Next Generations\"_, episodes 170 and 171):\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/z7xuw.png)\n\n**The confirmation offered by Sasuke:**\n\n * In the manga ( _\" Naruto Gaiden: The Seventh Hokage and the Scarlet Spring\"_, chapter 10):\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/PHcRH.jpg)\n\n * In the anime ( _\" Boruto: Naruto Next Generations\"_, episode 23):\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/ILeJ0.png)\n\n**The confirmations offered by Karin:**\n\n * In the manga ( _\" Naruto Gaiden: The Seventh Hokage and the Scarlet Spring\"_, chapter 10):\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/ICv0f.png)\n\n * In the anime (first confirmation - _\" Boruto: Naruto Next Generations\"_, episode 23):\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/Bxq1a.jpg)\n\n * In the anime (once again, a whole lot more confirmations - _\" Boruto: Naruto Next Generations\"_, episodes 101 and 102):\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/3rXcx.jpg)\n\nSo, everyone needs to learn the **difference** between the aspects of a story\nthat can be theorized on and the ones that straightforwardly can't. **When\nsomething has already been canonically established, there is absolutely no\npoint in making any new _theories_ about that very same fact since it simply\ncan't be altered.**\n\n**Sakura was established as the canon biological mother of Sarada, and that's\nthe end of the matter.**\n\n",
