(This can still be\nbroken as is the case between Minato and Kushina.)\n\nIt seems though, that in the final chapter, all the Ninja of the 'Konoha 11'\nseem to marry outside of their clan, like Naruto and Hinata (Uzumaki and\nHyuuga) or Shikamaru and Temari (Nara and Sand). I understand that this was\nmore of a fan service chapter, but is there any in-universe explanation as to\nwhy none of the Ninja of Naruto's generation decided to marry in-clan?\n\n",

"body": "\n\nIt is true that shinobi clans married within their respective clan so that\ntheir Kekkei Genkai would remain in the family. But it was around the time\nwhen all the nations were at war with each other. Once Hashirama Senju decided\nto distribute all the tailed beasts among the hidden villages, the majority of\nattention (of bad people) shifted from obtaining bloodline limit techniques to\nobtaining/controlling tailed beasts.\n\nAlso, in case of interclan marriages, it was not sure that the offspring would\nawaken his/her Bloodline Limit. It was evident in the case of Tsunade's\nparents who were half Senju and half Uzumaki because very little is known\nabout them, but it was certain that they were no shinobi.\n\nThe concept of not having interclan marriages was high when nations were at\nwar and having a technique unique to only one family/clan meant that their\ncountry would have an advantage over the enemy. Like in the case of Kimimaro's\nClan. But since it was evident that every offspring couldn't awaken their\nbloodline limit, interclan marriages were often held.\n\nIn the case of the Uchiha, there was never any protocol to marry within\nUchiha. Because their Kekkai Genkai was not easy to awaken, even for those who\nwere descendants of great Uchiha shinobi. Even if someone from outside their\nclan awakened the Sharingan, it would do a great deal of damage to one's body\nand eventually lead to death (as in Kakashi's case where he was paralyzed for\nan entire week after using his Mangeky Sharingan to save Gaara. Luckily by the\nend of Kaguya's Arc Obito helped him control his Sharingan but it drained out\nhis stamina quickly).\n\n",

What\nmakes him strong are his dangerous assassin techniques which allow him to\nmanipulate time and space\n\n * Even during the first fight between Goku and Hit during the Universe 6 vs Universe 7 arc, we need to realize that both of Goku's very powerful attacks didn't actually touch Hit. Hit's timeskip allowed him to dodge both the attacks which is why he managed to survive.\n * Even during the rematch between Goku and Hit, we see Goku capable of tanking multiple blows from Hit and even surviving a shot which almost killed him. However, one powerful Kamehameha in his improvised SSJB form, was capable of taking out Hit (a double K.O), during the match. \n * Even during the match between Hit and Dyspo, we see Dyspo's punches actually hurting hit a lot at the start. We see Goku on the other hand taking 2 back to back punches from Dyspo like it was nothing. \n\n \n\nIf I were to distinguish the current strongest characters(mortals), I'd put\nthem on the God Tier and the High Tier Scale :\n\n# God Tier\n\n 1. Jiren: He is the strongest mortal in the anime at the moment and his power is said to rival that of a Hakaishin. He obviously possesses a lot of techniques and experience like Goku but ultimately, what makes him unbelievable strong is just his brute strength and power. We do know that technique can sometimes counter power. (We see hit being able to do this with goku), However, Jiren's power rivals that of Beerus (at 100%). So his power is off the scale and even Hit's best technique wasn't sufficient enough to subdue him. \n 2. UI Goku: This transformation is Goku utilising a skill which the Gods strive to master. At the same time, it certainly does act as a power multiplier which makes him very strong and he's definitely not in his base form or his attacks wouldn't even touch Kefla or Jiren. One's he manages to attack perfectly in this state, and match Jiren's power, it would bring him closer to the power of the gods\n\n# High Tier\n\n 1. Goku SSJB + Kaioken*20\n 2. Kefla SSJ2 \n 3. Toppo\n 4. Vegeta SSJB = Golden Freiza\n 5. Hit\n\nIn terms of power, Hit is a lot weaker than the rest of the high tier\ncharacters. He is certainly very powerful, but even a mid tier character like\n17, gohan or dyspo (Fighting at full power) might be able to give Hit some\ntrouble if they manage to counter his special abilities which they very likely\nwouldn't be able to because of Hit's superior experience and complex level of\nskill. Also, you need to realize that Goku wouldn't struggle with Hit's time\nskip anymore in his UI state. Unlike Goku who needed some time to adjust to\ntime skip, Jiren was able to completely dodge all of Hits attacks and even\ncounter most of the time initially simply because of his amazing reaction\ntime. The UI transformation makes Goku's reaction time perfect, so\ntechnically, Goku would be able to dodge hit's time skip and overpower him.\n\n",

Goku and the others are struggling to even perceive the strength of\ntheir opponents. Other techniques and skills throw a monkey wrench in the idea\nof \"more power = stronger fighter\". Time skip, ultra instinct, and the energy\nof destruction are all examples of technique trumping raw power.\n\nThe new anime is changing power scaling and what it means to be a powerful\nfighter. _DBZ_ and _GT_ relied on transformations to show a character was at a\nhigher level. _Super_ , like the original _Dragon Ball_ , is pivoting to\nstrategy and use of different techniques to show a fighter's skills are\nadvancing.\n\n",

"body": "\n\nI am going to present my personal viewpoint regarding this question.\n\nFirstly, there is a common assumption that just like Whis serves Beerus,\nDaishinkan also serves Zeno and therefore by this analogy, just like Whis is\nstronger than Beerus, Daishinkan _\"could\"_ be stronger than Zeno. The problem\nwith this analogy is it doesn't consider the differences regarding the\nservices provided by the Angels and the Grand Priest.\n\nWhis serves as a mentor trains Beerus in combat. But Zeno is not a fighter. So\nthere is no need for Daishinkan to train Zeno. Thus Daishinkan plays a role\nwhich could be considered akin to a **_secretary/butler/advisor/minister_** to\nZeno.\n\nNow since Daishinkan is Whis's father and much much stronger than Whis, the\nquestion is **Why would Daishinkan serve the Omni-king if not to train him?**\n\nThe only plausible explaination then would be that he was created to serve\nZeno in an advisory role _(that is the Grand Priest's purpose)_.\n\nSecondly, nowhere in Dragonball Super it is mentioned that the Angels are\nindestructible or free from Zeno's wrath. It is only mentioned that _the\nangels will not be wiped out after the TOP._\n\n**Why?**\n\nMaybe because, Zeno didn't feel like it.\n\nOr maybe Daishinkan talked him out of it.\n\nMaybe the other angels are also related to Daishinkan and he doesn't want to\nsee his kin erased like the previous 6 universes, so he persuades Zeno.\n\nMaybe the angels have been kept alive because there is a chance Zeno might\nressurect all the wiped universes.\n\nWe don't know. We only know that there are too many maybe's here and no\ndefinite answer. The only safe option here is to assume that the _previous\nangels were also probably erased along with the previous 6 out of 18\nuniverses_ but this time the remaining angels have been spared this fate.\n\n",

"body": "\n\nI highly doubt it.\n\nFirst of all, we have no evidence to suggest that any slayer magic is of a\nhigher tier than any other slayer magic. Wendy and Chelia were about equal\nwhen they fought, and Natsu actually defeated Zancrow in combat despite\nZancrow's God Slayer magic. Therefore END's Demon Slayer magic isn't\nnecessarily better than Natsu's Dragon Slayer magic.\n\nSecondly, Natsu is END. That means that we don't have any evidence to suggest\nthat END is anything more than Natsu wielding Fire Demon Slayer magic as\neffectively as he wields Fire Dragon Slayer magic.\n\nSo looking at the matchup, I would argue that Natsu is actually better suited\nto 1v1ing Acnologia as a Fire Dragon Slayer than as a Demon Dragon Slayer. You\nsee, slayer magic is designed to defeat the entity they are named after. That\nmeans Fire Dragon Slayer magic is more effective against dragons than Fire\nDemon Slayer magic. (Chapter 301, Zealconis states that humans were given the\nmagic to slay dragons. That's logically Dragon Slayer magic, and you can\ndeduce that X Slayer magic means magic to slay X).\n\nThe reason Zeref designed END is because he wanted to get hit with the most\npowerful Demon Slayer Magic that existed, since Demon Slayer magic is more\neffective against his demon body.\n\nAt any rate, if Natsu with his super-effective-against-dragons magic can't\nbeat Acnologia without the power of friendship, I doubt he could do so with\nless effecive magic.\n\n",

I believe it’s possible for E.N.D could beat Acnologia. Though, not a lot\nof information has been stated about END but he’s happened to break through a\ntime freeze. Assuming he’s using curse power since most demons do, it would be\neasier on Acnologia. Also, the reason gray was able to go toe-to-toe with\nnatsu was because he had demon slayer magic. A magic that was made to deal\nwith those type of demons and curses. It’s been shown when gray mange to\nfreeze curse power and he was immune to the ‘thorn curse that removes your\nexistence.” Also, the reason Igneel didn’t kill natsu wasn’t because he wasn’t\nstrong enough. It was because he wanted to raise him. If you wanna add ‘dragon\ncry’ which some people say isn’t canon even though it’s mentioned in the\nmanga, he uses E.N.D form to slay a dragon. So yes, I believe it’s possible\nfor E.N.D to slay Acnologia. Also, a lot of people keep saying that Acnologia\nover used Dragon slayer Magic which caused him to turn into one but that isn’t\ntrue. That was a side effect of dragon slayer Magic which was shown with\nErza’s Mother. Igneel and the other dragons created the anti-bodies which stop\nnatsu the rest of the slayer from transforming. The reason Acnologia is OP is\nbecause he slay hundreds of dragon and bathed in their blood. It’s been stated\nthat dragon slayers power could increase by bathing in dragon Blood. It’s been\nsaid by rogue and stings dragons. Though it’s not been said why or how he’s\nable to eat magic and is immune, but my theory is that he’s so op that he’s\nnow able to eat any element also because he absorbs dragon souls too. The only\nreason why natsu and the slayer beat Acnologia was because they used Fairy\nspheres while he was on a boat. A dragon slayers weakness. Anyways, E.N.D was\nsupposed to be strong than Zeref and I’m sure they’re gonna release more of\nhim in the 100 year quest. But in my opinion, yes, E.N.D could beat Acnologia.\nHe was able to break through frozen time, slay a dragon (dragon cry) and even\nburn almost everything in his path. Plus, it’s stated that demons have another\nform so we probably haven’t seen full E.N.D\n\n",

"body": "\n\nThe main concept of Ultra Instinct, is cutting down reaction time\n**significantly**. We know this based on Whis's comments while training Goku\nand Vegeta. Also, Vados's comment during Goku vs Kefla. \n \nIt was also stated by Vados, that **Jiren's** reaction time is near to\nperfect. We can conclude the same based on the last comment she made when Hit\nattacked Jiren after Jiren defeated Goku. She said that most warriors are open\nimmediately after fighting an enemy and Jiren didn't even have that weakness\nand he reacted immediately to block hit. We also see Jiren being able to dodge\nthe first **Kick** from **Ultra Instinct Goku**. \n \nWe also see in the Ultra Instinct state, Goku was doing fairly well with Jiren\ndespite Jiren's physical power being significantly higher compared to Goku's.\nSo in other words, the transformation made Goku's reaction time better than\nJiren which is why Jiren had trouble landing attacks. However, Jiren's\n**reaction time** is extremely good enough to easily react to **Hit's time\nskip** and his attack which Goku couldn't that easily. \n \nI believe every **God Tier fighter** , ie God's of destructions and Jiren have\nrequire very minimal time to react and hence have UI mastered down to an\nextent. However, it is not to the same extent as that of Whis and the other\nangels and Goku has possibly mastered the dodging part, to the same extent as\nWhis. The reason why I believe Jiren hasn't perfected it as much as Goku has\nis because of something said by **Whis during the UI Goku vs Kefla fight**.\nWhis said that Goku's attacks were pretty weak and this was even after he\npowered up. During his fight against Jiren, we know Jiren in terms of raw\npower is comparable to a God of Destruction's power. Hence if **Jiren's\nreaction time was better than Goku's or even equal to Goku's** , he wouldn't\neven have struggled a little against UI Goku. \n \nThis brings me to my conclusion that Jiren **has not mastered self movement**.\nI believe he has a reaction time which is very comparable to that of a God.\nHowever, Goku is ahead of him with regard to that. Jiren's raw power on the\nother hand, is superior to Goku and comparable to Beerus and the other Gods.\n\n",

In response to the Madara attack, the first Hokage put the Kyuubi into\nhis wife, Mito Uzumaki. We also know that it was directly given to Kushina\nUzumaki from Mito. This means it never left Mito because she would’ve already\nbeen dead. While Kushina was in possession of the Kyuubi, it was extracted by\nMadara again, the second attack. Immediately after, it was given to Naruto,\nand 12 years later the events of Naruto began.\n\nThus, we can conclude that the Nine Tails was used to attack the Leaf exactly\n2 times.\n\n",

As for the other angels, the reason you see\nthem being linked as sisters on the wiki page is because of this\n[image](http://www.imgrum.org/media/1538779276920221160_2128220734)(linked\nhere) posted on Instagram by Toyotaro listing **Vados, Whis, Cus, Maracarita\nand Marinu** as siblings. \n\nThe post translates to **\"4 Beautiful Sisters\"**. \n \nPersonal Opinion: I personally believed at the start that it was very likely\nthat all the angels are kids of the grand priest. However, after episode 118,\nmy opinion of the same has changed. After Universe 6 is erased, we see Vados\nimmediately going towards Whis as seen in the picture below. We also know that\nthis isn't temporary as Vados is seated next to Whis in episode 119. We don't\nsee any of the other angels joining another Universe or being seated next to\nanother angel once their universe is erased. **Please Note** : There is a very\nhigh possibility that this doesn't mean anything and it was only because\n**Vados and Whis might be very close since they are from parallel universes**\n, or they might be two siblings **who get along and don't get along with the\nothers** or **only the two of them might be siblings** and we don't know for\nsure. \n \n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/Hj9dd.jpg)\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/Dri43.jpg)\n\nHence, there is no actual answer to your question and it's personally up to\nyou to decide what you believe in.\n\n",

"body": "\n\nBoth Comiket and COMITIA are _doujinshi_ conventions held in Japan. Both\nconventions are generally the same event with several differences. See [What\nevents usually happen at\nComiket?](https://anime.stackexchange.com/a/22858/2869)\n\n## **Main Focus**\n\nWhile both Comiket's and COMITIA's main focus is socializing and exchange\n_doujinshi_. COMITIA is the largest _dojinshi_ convention focused completely\nfor the exchange of **original _dojinshi_** in all genres. So unlike in\nComiket, any **_doujinshi_ based on an existing work are not allowed** in this\nconvention. And unlike in Comiket where there are large numbers of cosplayers\nparticipate, there is **no cosplay** at COMITIA.\n\n## **Frequency and Location**\n\nComiket is held twice a year in Tokyo, in August and December. Generally\nreferred as NatsuComi (Summer Comiket) and FuyuComi (Winter Comiket), in Tokyo\nBig Sight convention center. While COMITIA main convention is held **four\ntimes per year located in various convention sites** in Tokyo depending on the\nsize of the edition in question. And associated COMITIA cons are held in other\nparts of Japan as well. There are smaller editions are held throughout the\nyear, 2 times per year in Osaka, Nagoya, and Niigata.\n\n## **Participant**\n\nComiket is way larger than COMITIA. In Comiket, the number of circles that can\nparticipate is limited to 35,000 where there are more than 30.000 circles\nparticipants in recent years. Where in COMITIA, **about 2000 to 3000 circles**\nhave participated in every COMITIA in recent years. The hundredth edition of\nthe main con, is set to welcome about 5000 circles.\n\nSome professional mangaka also participate in COMITIA, selling their pro works\ndirectly to fans. But they must participate as individuals; **company booths\nare not allowed**. While in Comiket there are more than 100 companies, ranging\nfrom manga publishers to anime production houses to dojinshi resale shops and\nother fan-oriented companies, like Pixiv, can participated in Comiket. These\ncompany booths are located on a separate floor and have a separate catalog.\nCompanies at Comiket generate publicity for existing and upcoming projects,\nand sell goods, often limited editions that are distributed exclusively at\nComiket.\n\n## **Inaugurated Date**\n\nThe first Comiket was held on 21 December 1975. While the first COMITIA was\nheld later on 18 November 1984.\n\n* * *\n\nSimilar to Comiket, the number is the identification of the n-th edition of\nthe COMITIA. Currently they have COMITIA122. The hundredth edition of COMITIA\ntook place on 5 May 2012.\n\n* * *\n\nSources\n\n * <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C5%8Djinshi_convention>\n * <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comiket>\n * <https://fanlore.org/wiki/COMITIA>\n * <https://fanlore.org/wiki/Doujinshi_Convention>\n * <https://fanlore.org/wiki/Comiket>\n * <http://www.comitia.co.jp/>\n\n",

The Shandorians were unprepared as they\nweren't as technically advanced as the Warriors of Skypiea. But they had more\ncombat experience. Despite the leader of the Shandorians, Kalgara, terrible\ndeath at the hands of the Warriors, the war still ended in a tie with all\nSkypian Warriors dying or being stolen by Eneru/Enel/Kami but the Shandorians\nnever got back Shandora. Fast forwards a few years and the Skypian Warriors\nare back with a more powerful Leader, ensuing a new war. Then, after centuries\nof this sky battle, Luffy and Company appear, starting the Skypiean saga we\nall know and love. Their use of dials wer just stolen equipment from their\nenemy used in a way only for combat.\n\n",

"body": "\n\nTL;DR Was the ancient Shandorian civilization technologically advanced? Likely\nalthough not confirmed.\n\nTo understand the ancient Shandorian civilization there's a lot of lore that\nneeds to be understood about the One Piece timeline, the moon peoples, their\nsuccessors and the void century.\n\nOver the course of the cover story \"[Enel's Great Space\nOperations](https://onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Enel%27s_Great_Space_Operations)\"\nspanning Ch 428-474 we learn of the ancient moon civilization, the Birkans\nincluding their history, impressive technology and the reason they eventually\nhad to leave. To summarize, long ago there was a civilization of winged moon\npeople called the Birkans whose technological feats included sentient robots\nand ships capable of interplanetary travel. Running out of resources on the\nmoon they used these aforementioned ships to carry them down to the White sea\nwith one particular group making it all the way down to the Blue sea.\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/tW83N.png)\n\nThe descendants of the moon people can be identified by the wings on their\nbacks which include the White sea civilizations of\n[Skypiea](https://onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Skypiea) and\n[Birka](https://onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Birka) (Enel's homeland, not to be\nconfused with the ancient moon civilization), and the Blue sea Shandorian\ncivilization on the island of Jaya. When did the moon people come down to the\nBlue sea? We do not know exactly but according to the tombstone for the city\nof Shandora Robin translates in Ch 261\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/fIM9t.png)\n\nthe city of Shandora prospered in the year 402 (~1100 years ago) meaning it\nwas settled by the moon people some time before then and fell ~800 years ago\nwhich places its fall around the tail end of the Void Century. In Ch 272 Robin\ntranslates some text inside the city of Shandora written in the language of\nthe Poneglyphs,\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/KcPM4.png)\n\nThe text refers to how the city of Shandora fought to protect its Poneglyph\nagainst an enemy and as a result, their civilization was destroyed and their\nhistory erased. While some people survived and became the\n[Shandians](https://onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Shandia) the Shandorian\ncivilization was gone, their golden city fell to ruin and their history and\nliterature was lost in the void.\n\nSpeaking of the void and the fall of Shandora, what happened in the Void\nCentury? I have no idea and that's kind of the point, just about nobody knows\nwhat happened in the Void Century. What we do know is that it was a period of\nhistory that started ~900 years ago and lasted around 100 years. While\nhistorical records exist of the time before and after the Void Century, what\nhappened during these hundred years can only be found on the Poneglyphs.\nResearching the Poneglyphs/Void Century is forbidden by the World Government\nand punishable by death. In Ch 395, Professor Clover of Ohara reveals a basic\noverview of what he thinks happened,\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/wBufF.png)\n\nWe do not know if the great civilization he was referring to was Shandora but\nwe do know the World Government is entirely capable of suppressing all\nknowledge of a once great civilization and that Shandora fell during this\ntime. Meaning Shandora was once a powerful civilization and may or may not\nhave been technologically advanced but due to being erased from history we\nCANNOT know if this was the case.\n\nIn the main story of One Piece, in the year 1122 (~400 years ago and 400 years\nafter the fall of Shandora) we are introduced to the Shandians through the\nfirst hand accounts of Mont Blanc Noland (Ch 287-293). The Shandians are\ndescendants of the Shandorians but are a rather low tech society bearing none\nof the hallmarks of the ancient Birkan civilization (robots and flying ships).\nThey live in a village quite far away from the ruins of Shandora. In 1127,\nthey are launched along with half of Jaya by the [Knock Up\nStream](https://onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Knock_Up_Stream) into the White sea\nisland of Skypiea.\n\nOne thing to note is that while the Shandian's don't seem to have much of the\nmoon people technology, Enel's flying ship he uses to reach the moon is\nreminiscent of the moon peoples ship and given he's from Birka they may have\nhad the blueprints/knowledge of interplanetary ships inherited from the moon\npeople.\n\n",

"body": "\n\n**For _Abyss of Hyperscape_ , the manga is an adaptation of the movie.**\n\n[Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodacious_Space_Pirates#Manga)\nmentioned about this in a brief,\n\n> A manga adaptation of the film illustrated by Chibimaru began serialization\n> in Media Factory's Monthly Comic Alive from February 2014.\n\n* * *\n\nHowever, the confusion between the continuity between the manga and the anime\nmight arise because the anime overtook the original source (light novel)'s\nprogress.\n\nFrom [Japanese\nWikipedia](https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%9F%E3%83%8B%E3%82%B9%E3%82%AB%E5%AE%87%E5%AE%99%E6%B5%B7%E8%B3%8A#%E3%83%86%E3%83%AC%E3%83%93%E3%82%A2%E3%83%8B%E3%83%A1),\n\n>\n> 原作の第3巻がまだあらすじしかできていない時期にアニメ化の企画が動き始めたため、第1話から第18話までは原作の第1巻から第3巻までに準拠した内容となっており、第19話以降は時系列的に現時点ではアニメオリジナルエピソードとなっている（原作10巻巻末時点で、まだ2年目の6月末）。また、当初は2011年後半に放送が予定されていたものが2012年にずれこんだ。そういった時間的余裕もあり、第1話の放送前に全26話の制作を完了した。制作に余裕を持てた状況も、前述のような異色の展開や実験に寄与している。原作のスペースオペラ的側面はやや薄められており、異星人的な種族などは登場しない。ただし最古参の海賊が存命しているなど、原作の要素は残っていたり、アニメ版からの逆輸入設定も有る。\n>\n> Since the anime's production planning was about to start when the 3rd volume\n> of the original source (light novel) had only a summary, episode 1-18 would\n> be based on volume 1-3, and episode 19 and later would be anime original\n> story based on the present time chronologically. However, while the\n> broadcast was planned to start in the second-half of 2011, it was delayed\n> until 2012. Because of the time allowance, the production for the whole 26\n> episodes has finished before episode 1 was broadcast. Moreover, the time\n> allowance made it possible for the production to contribute to the different\n> plot development and experiments. The \"space opera\" feeling from the\n> original source was reduced, and alien-like races were not introduced.\n> However, regarding the oldest pirate being alive and more, some plot from\n> the original source still remained, but also some of the settings from the\n> anime got adapted into the light novel too.\n\nTo summarize:\n\n * The light novel was adapted into a manga, and partially into an anime.\n * The anime continued with an original story while the light novel was still in progress.\n * The movie continued the anime, and a new manga adapted it.\n\n",

Him not\nbeing able to the first time, when he found out that Vegeta had gone off\ntraining on his own makes sense because Vegeta had gotten a lot stronger and\nit was stated that his ki was completely different. This time around, it\ndidn't. It's obvious base Vegeta was a lot stronger than what Gohan powered up\nto during the ROF arc.\n\nTo top it all off, once Bulma contacts Vegeta and Goku regarding Future\nTrunks, we see Kid Trunks turning SSJ and barely powering up which was\nsufficient for Goku to find. Kid Trunks wasn't obviously stronger than Gohan\nor powered up to the extent Gohan did during the ROF arc. Which again doesn't\nmake sense.\n\nMany might argue that this is because Goku is now used to travelling to and\nfro and he wasn't then but you have to realise that instant transmission has\nnothing to do with being familiar with the place. It has to do more with\ndetecting ki.\n\nIs this in general bad writing and inconsistencies? Or is there a particular\nreason for the above listed events?\n\n",

At the end\nof the same episode they catch all but one of Piccaro Calvino's crew (since\nRoco died in the shootout and even if he hadn't, there was no way Spike was\ngoing to turn him in).\n\nNext was episode 10 with another two bounties. First was Baker Poncherero\nwho's already tied up on the Bebop at the beginning of the episode, and then\nat the end of the episode, Jet turns in Rhint Celonias, his ex's new\nboyfriend.\n\nThe next bounty they get isn't until episode 15 when they turn in Faye's old\nflame Whitney Hagas Matsumoto, though they're disappointed by how small the\nreward was.\n\nThe final bounty we see them catch is in episode 22 when Faye and Jet catch\nTeddy Bomber while he's fleeing away from Spike and Andy's fight.\n\nAlthough those are the only ones we actually see them catch through the whole\nseries, and let's be honest, a show about bounty hunters who only actually\ncatch bounties in 4 out of 26 episodes (AND don't even catch any in the movie\neither) doesn't SEEM that impressive, it's pretty heavily implied that they\ncatch a lot more offscreen. In particular, Teddy Bomber singles out Spike\nSpiegel as one of the most feared bounty hunters in the whole solar system, so\nI would have to think that they're a lot more successful in the times where we\ndon't see them. But the show honestly is much more humorous, entertaining, and\nrealistic in showing that anything can happen and failure is something that\nhappens often when tracking low life scum across dozens of planets, asteroids\nand moons, and when they fail, all there is to do is move on to the next\nbounty.\n\n",

"body": "\n\nVegeta has surpassed Goku on a few occasions! Only for a short duration\nthough. Here is a list of all the times Vegeta surpassed Goku.\n\n* **Android Saga(When Vegeta First turns SSJ)** : It was mentioned by Picollo when Vegeta turned SSJ that he was notably stronger than Goku. This was the same time Goku was infected with the heart virus. \n* **Cell Games(Post HTC)** : Once Vegeta and Future Trunks came out of the HTC just before Goku went in with Gohan, Vegeta was obviously stronger than Goku then.\n* **Battle of Gods(vs Beerus)** : This is notably the highest margin by which Vegeta has surpassed Goku. Base Vegeta was definitely as stronger or weaker than Base Goku at this time. The SSJ2 transformation is a 100 times multiplier while the SSJ3 is a 400 times multiplier. Vegeta surpassing the same with his rage boost, made him a lot stronger than SSJ3 Goku.\n* **6 Months of training with Whis** : We do not know this to a certainty, however, it was stated by Goku once he went to Beerus's world to train with Whis that Vegeta might be as strong or possibly even stronger than him. \n* **Rematch against Goku Black(Note: Kaioken is not considered here because it is a special technique)** : While Goku was mastering the mafuba, Vegeta trained in the HTC and surpassed Goku. Vegeta overwhelmed Black until he converted his ki blade to a scythe.(Black was slower, yet his power had surpassed Vegeta's again). Also, note that this might not be very accurate because we see Goku pushing back a holy wrath from Merged Zamasu and fighting him on his own while Future Trunks(SSJ Rage)+SSJB Vegeta together struggled to push back a beam attack from Merged Zamasu. My only explanation for the same is that Goku got a Zenkai Boost which made him as strong as Vegeta was by the end of this arc.\n\n",

{
"body": "\n\nAnswer your main question, Does Freiza have God ki? **The answer would be\nNo**. However, only **God Ki people can feel other people's ki is incorrect**.\n\nGod ki is mainly perfect ki control. You could compare it to something that\nhappened back in dragon ball where they were capable of masking their ki and\nused to power up while engaging in battle with a foe. This is a much more\ncomplex version of the same where Goku and Vegeta have mastered energy\ncontrol.\n\nWhile Goku is in the God transformation, since Frieza couldn't **directly\nsense his energy,** we see him strike Goku in his final form and tells him\nthat he was gauging his power. Even after he turns to Golden Freiza, Freiza\ncould feel the pressure of Super Saiyan Ki and managed to gauge the difference\nin strength based on that.\n\nFreiza is a very experienced fighter. He's also a fighting prodigy. So him\nassessing Goku's power based on the **Pressure** from SSJB, is not something\nimpossible. Also, Freiza **wasn't able to gauge Goku's power exactly** both\nduring their first fight and a later on fight. Goku initially was holding back\nagainst Golden Freiza, **(Not by a substantial amount. Also please note that\nFreiza was holding back as well)**. Freiza hence didn't use enough energy to\ndestroy Goku when he had the chance. It was after Goku figured out the stamina\ndrain that the two of them powered up to full power. During their second\nfight, Freiza was shocked when he realised **Goku in his SSJB state was as\nstrong as Golden Freiza**. We see this by the expression on his face when the\ntwo of them exchange punches. When Goku fought Krillin and When Vegeta fought\nFuture Trunks, they both stated that they could feel an immense amount of\npressure even if they aren't able to sense the exact amount of energy.\n\nNow take Caulifla and Kale during the tournament of power. Since they are\nneither aware of God ki and are very experienced as fighters, they were more\nstartled by the Super Saiyan 3 transformation than any of the God\ntransformations despite those being a lot Superior.\n\nFinally, let us consider the mighty **Jiren the Gray**. We know Jiren doesn't\nhave god ki as his energy is felt by all the other contestants. Yet, in the\nstart, when Goku punched him in his SSJ forms, he didn't move. When Goku\nturned SSJG at struck him, how did he **detect the power of the transformation\nand raise his finger**? His experience as a fighter allowed him to sense how\nstrong Goku was. Jiren was holding back immensely against SSJB Goku and even\nSSJB+ Kaioken*20 Goku. If Jiren couldn't sense Goku's energy, he probably\nwould've sensed more energy from someone like **Maji Kayo** and attempted to\npunch Goku out using the force of his fist. Very experienced fighters can\ngauge the amount of power a user has while he or she is utilizing God Ki. We\nalso know Goku only attains God ki during his SSJB and SSJG transformations.\nHowever, when Goku fought **Beerus in his base form aka(Monaka), **Goku said\nthat his ki felt like Beerus's ki.\n\nI believe utilizing God ki is a lot different from being able to sense it. God\nki basically involves energy control where you mask your ki a lot. Even\nfighters who do not possess god ki can do the same. We see Hit doing the same\ninitially during his fight with Vegeta and even his rematch with Goku. Even\nJiren does the same until his fight with Goku as the Universe 6 Kaioshin was\ncurious about Jiren's' power and wanted to Maji Kayo to help reveal the same.\nEven Goku knew he was strong but didn't know he was that strong as he was\nsurprised with Jiren being able to push back SSJB+Kaioken * 20 and push back\nthe spirit bomb effortlessly. Even the gods and Angels obviously can guage a\nfighters strength when god ki is being utilised. We see this based on Whis's\nsuggestion that Goku and Vegeta would need to fight together to defeat Freiza\nand Vermouth suggesting that Jiren was a lot stronger than the SSJB\ntransformation.\n\n# Some Snaps of the events described earlier\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/yowH4.jpg)\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/QbiCL.jpg)\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/rPMxs.jpg)\n\n**Pressure felt while facing off against SSJB:** I believe this can be\ncompared to a scenario where a fighter is in the gravity chamber but doesn't\nknow where he is. He feels this unmeasaurable force of power against him. On\nthe other hand, when energy can be sensed, you can compare it to the fighter\nsetting the level of gravity in the chamber and this would allow him to know\nhow strong exactly his opponent(Which here is the gravity) is, and use\nsufficient amount of energy necessary.\n\n",

The girl hates mundane things, is a huge mystery geek and\nwished for something exciting happens instead (supposedly, Kyoto is a Japanese\nmystery shack in her eyes).\n\nThen they stumble into 'Enma-kun's Lodge', a shop where the mascot of Mutsuji\nvillage resides in the city. There, they met the triplets. They see the\ntriplets struggling with foreign visitors due to their lack of English\nspeaking ability, and Sara lits up thinking she can do something interesting\nby helping them. Her moment, however, was stolen by Takaya. Yes, _the Takaya_\n(the formerly dead-dude Takaya).\n\nSara senses something is off with Takaya's vibe. Takaya decides to help the\ntriplets with their 'Trip to Enma-kun's Hometown, a Day-trip to Mutsuji\nvillage' travel guide job. That's when Sara said \"I finally find something\ninteresting\" and thus forcing Rui to embark on her mystery journey as both\nHolmes and Kindaichi towards the mysterious Mutsuji village.\n\nAfter watching Takaya's interaction with the triplets' twin younger sisters,\nSara confirms aloud to her brother that she does find Takaya's aura suspicious\nand sensing there are incidents in Mutsuji village, while her brother\ncomplained about her character inconsistencies.\n\nUpon arriving, you'll find places that's an Easter egg for the other manga, as\nSara sense Takaya's wistful aura while they're sightseeing. the group arrived\nat a cave (those Japanese creepy caves), and Sara's mystery senses went\noverboard, Takaya then said \"I wonder... It's possible, isn't it? For there to\nbe a corpse or two.\" (is both teasing Sara and subtly hinting manga trivia)\n\nTakaya then ask about the roads which the triplets explain about villagers\nbelieves that there is a god living in the cave that protects Mutsuji. The\ntriplets then wish them to have a break and stop by Mutsuji's famous local\ncafe, while Sara on the other hand, shamelessly address that Takaya has some\nsort of revenge plot, and try to interrogate him. Takaya bluntly said he has\nno means to play along with her plot and states that he's here simply to meet\nhis girlfriend.\n\nSara is deflated and utterly discouraged by the revelation that her 'mystery\njourney' was in fact a mere romance or fantasy story. The triplets then after\nsecuring seats in the cafe by phone, proceed the group to the infamous cafe\nMutsuji.\n\n",

Gary's characterization of Hisoka as a bloodthirsty hedonist\nfits well as a description of this alignment. (Note that one can be evil\nwithout being bloodthirsty; but Hisoka is certainly that.)\n\nThe **chaotic** part of his nature is shown in the way he does what he wants\nwhen he wants. He feels no need for subtlety or lies. In his mind, the world\nmust adapt to him, not he to it. He will conform to rules when they serve his\npurpose. Otherwise, rules are made to be broken. He has a sense of honor,\nwhich is seen in how he joined Gon's team and assisted them in the dodge ball\ngame on Greed Island. He could have betrayed the team at any point, or get\ntired of it and not care any more. That would have been dishonorable, however.\nPlus, he was having fun.\n\nHis **evil** is shown in the manner in which he defeats enemies. He doesn't\nincapacitate temporarily, but humiliates them, usually resulting in painful\ndeath. He is driven to break them to a point of hopelessness, to see the look\nof defeat in their eyes, before finally disposing of them. At the same time,\nhe desires a challenge, which is why he allows Gon and company to continue to\ntrain and improve. They are \"unripe fruit\", and will not be devoured until\nsucculent.\n\n",

They\nsettled on the Duel Monsters because apparently the readers really liked the\ncard game. Duel Monsters was originally only supposed to appear twice: both of\nthem duels with Kaiba in the original series.

His **body is extremely hard** and he has very high defenses. Hence he's strong enough to tank those powerful attacks from Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan.\n 2. You missed something out with regard to the beam struggle between Goku-Vegeta and Koichiarator. Goku and Vegeta didn't go all out and only bought Gohan some time to charge up his Kamehameha and strike. It was stated from the start that Gohan wanted Goku and Vegeta to **save their stamina** to square off against Universe 11.\n 3. With regard to Gohan's Kamehameha, Koichiarator **didn't actually fire a beam attack** against him. He is designed to resist strong attacks which is why he managed to survive so long.\n 4. Also, Paparoni used his special abilities to give Koichiarator an attack, speed and defense boost. So in other words, you could compare it to **Basil being given the special drug** during the Zen Exhibition match.\n\nNow to answer your question with regard to its strength, you can't really\ngauge or compare its strength and this is why. I want to refer to an incident\nwhich happened in Dragon Ball Z where Gohan was training on the Kai's planet\nwith the Z-Sword. We see Gohan struggling to use the Z-sword at the start and\nto even pull it out. Neither Kibito nor Shin was even strong enough to Pick it\nup.\n\nHowever, the **Block made of Katchin** was strong enough to break the sword\ninto 2. That doesn't imply the block of Katchin is stronger than Gohan.\n\nIn terms of strength, as, in actual power, I'd say it's at the level of Super\nSaiyan 2 Goku at max. **(Assuming it didn't have those special features\ndesigned to help it in combat)**.\n\n# Some pictures Supporting what I said\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/8o9z5.jpg)\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/jfRVO.jpg)\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/r2HzV.jpg)\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/MsN2y.jpg)\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/Ftg2S.jpg)\n\n",

Quoting the \"Reception\" section,\n\n> Chris Beveridge commends the OVA for \"good character designs, some good\n> eroticism\". He further comments, \"While we get a fair bit of upper body\n> nudity, there’s no genitalia involved for those that are looking for that\n> aspect of it ... it’s not hiding the sex, but it’s also straddling the line\n> in a way to try to appeal to more people while not going all hardcore.\"\n\nWhile the _Aki Sora_ Wikipedia page doesn't actually say if the manga was\nhentai, the [_A Wish of my\nSister_](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Wish_of_my_Sister#See_also)\n(Wikipedia, **NSFW warning** ) under \"See Also\" says:\n\n> Aki Sora - another hentai manga by the same author, which characters (Sora\n> and Aki) are similar in appearance and actions with Keisuke and his older\n> sister\n\nAnd while I haven't read it myself, a friend who suggested it to me\n\n> (for the shoujo-ai/yuri elements in it at the end)\n\nsaid that the graphical nature of the intercourse isn't like that if what you\nwould expect from H doujin and in fact you don't actually see genitalia much\nlike the OVA.\n\nHowever, neither one of these are a spin-off like the first example you\nsuggest. Generally, a hentai adaptation comes from an adult source like [Beat\nAngel Escalayer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_Angel_Escalayer).\n\nIn the opposite way, a Visual Novel with adult content generally gets it\nremoved such as with _Fate/Stay Night_ , _Utawarerumono_ and _Tears to Tiara_\n, though all of these had all-ages equivalent releases and future releases\nweren't eroge ( _Fate/Extra_ , _Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception_ , _Tears to\nTiara 2_ ). The closest I have ever seen is in the _Tsukihime_ which had H\nscenes1 in it with the heroines yet in the anime which adapts only the Arcueid\nRoute\n\n> shows a scene where it's implied that Tohno Shiki and Arcueid had\n> intercourse (Arcueid is covered but you can tell she's naked) and its place\n> in the plot lines up to when the H scene involves them would take place.\n\nBut with series like _Bleach_ and _Naruto_ where it's evident that characters\nmust have had intercourse to have their children (ie, Naruto and Hinata having\nBoruto and Himawari), as these series are generally aimed at younger\nreaders/viewership, the creation of hentai anime/manga to bridge these gaps\nfor when children were conceived can't be marketed to the same demographics of\nthe original works.\n\n* * *\n\n1: I am unsure if this is retained functionality or new functionality, but the\ninstaller of the Mirror Moon English Patch for _Tsukihime_ had an option to\nremove the H scene which was also in-game. The same trigger was also found in-\ngame in its sequel _Kagetsu Tohya_.\n\n",

"body": "\n\nIt certainly comes from the fans who have played the visual novel (VN) and set\nthe expectation too high for the anime adaptation.\n\nSome background, the original _Tsukihime_ VN was stated as an exceptionally\nbig hit for a _doujin_ game in Japan and drew big attention when an anime\nadaptation was decided. The VN itself also seemed to receive global\nrecognition. Note that it also consists of multiple endings and many\nbackstories and may take more than 30 hours (according to\n[VNDB](https://vndb.org/v7)) to finish all the routes.\n\nPutting aside opinions, the anime was broadcasted for 12 episodes based on a\ncertain character's route:\n\n> \"Arcueid's True End\"\n\nHowever, due to the limitation on episode counts and the staffs having\ntroubles in trying to incorporate _all_ elements from the original source,\nmany unimportant settings were left out. Some settings and characters'\npersonality were also changed partially. Moreover, some voice actors were not\nexperienced in anime voice acting, including Nabatame Hitomi (Arcueid's voice\nactor) making _Tsukihime_ as the debut in TV anime voice acting. Additionally,\nall of the voice actors were different compared to the _[Melty\nBlood](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melty_Blood)_ which had been released\nbefore the anime.\n\nOn the other hand, the manga adaptation following the same anime's route was\nalso released at nearly the same time and _was serialized for 7 years_. While\nthe story development was interwoven with multiple routes, the manga also\nintegrated some references from _Tsukihime Tokuhon_ and _[Kagetsu\nTohya](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kagetsu_Tohya)_ without feeling out of\nplace and losing the original source's atmosphere. Even words of acclaims from\nthe original author were written on the\n[_obi_](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obi_\\(publishing\\)).\n\nNow, back to the fans' opinions, there were many reasons why they didn't want\nto \"acknowledge the existence\" of this anime. To summarize it:\n\n> \\- Plot development: all over the place, slow pace, wrong focus,\n> under-/unexplained details, bizarre use of flashbacks \n> \\- Bad presentation: too many non-subtle dialogs instead of actions \n> \\- Characters: modified personality and roles \n> \\- Visual: too many close-up shots of faces/upper torsos, stiff/stilted/\n> motionless, unremarkable action scenes \n> \\- Audio: over-the-top sound effects, poor translation & dub\n\nand many concluded that it's okay as a standalone work but terrible as an\nadaptation.\n\nInterestingly, _Japanese fans also didn't want to acknowledge the anime's\nexistence_. Most of them assumed the anime as \"a dark history\" and \"there's no\nanime adaptation\". Since they had the same opinion as with the global\naudiences, it's probably safe to say that it has spread since the original TV\nbroadcast in 2003.\n\n* * *\n\nSources:\n\n * [Japanese Wikipedia](https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%9C%9F%E6%9C%88%E8%AD%9A_%E6%9C%88%E5%A7%AB)\n * Reviews: [AniTAY](http://anitay.kinja.com/grexs-lunar-legend-tsukihime-review-1780509201), [MyAnimeList](https://myanimelist.net/anime/169/Shingetsutan_Tsukihime/reviews), [the escapist Forum](http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/jump/326.142352.3191327), [FinalCrosMayCry's WordPress](https://finalcrosmaycry.wordpress.com/2013/01/02/tsukihime-anime-review-i-wish-it-didnt-exist-either/), [anime-planet](https://www.anime-planet.com/users/roriconfan/reviews/32293)\n * [Japanese Typemoon Wiki](https://typemoon.wiki.cre.jp/wiki/%E7%9C%9F%E6%9C%88%E8%AD%9A_%E6%9C%88%E5%A7%AB#.E8.A9.B1.E9.A1.8C.E3.81.BE.E3.81.A8.E3.82.81)\n\n",

A\nreality marble, being somewhat literally the user's internal world (which is\nthen made manifest upon the world in some sense and extent), changes in\nresponse to changes to that internal world. As such the reality marble becomes\nthe channel through which memories and personality changes are conveyed and\nimposed upon the stored hero and subsequent summons.\n\nThis is how Archer becomes distorted and warped, and develops a plan to try to\nend his own existence by paradoxically killing himself should he ever be\nconveniently summoned into the grail war in some alternate timeline. He was\nfrequently summoned as a pawn devoid of the ability to enact his own will to\nmop up the messes of humanity, and to kill and destroy as demanded. He had\nmade his pact with the world thinking he would _prevent_ suffering and tragedy\nand death, not simply be a murderous janitor that comes in after the fact. His\nreality marble effectively records these things and it results in twisting the\npersonality of the heroic spirit.\n\nSo in such a case, yes, a spirit can remember \"prior\" summons. Though exactly\nhow the \"order\" of summons gets determined when the throne itself exists\noutside of time, I don't know; clearly the Fuyuki HGW we see occurs after many\nother summons for other purposes.\n\nIn principle this could apply to any other hero with a Reality Marble, such as\nthe 4th War's Rider. Indeed, some people felt they saw an adult Waver in his\nreality marble's army in the Fate/Zero animation, but this seems fan\nspeculation at best and may have been someone else with a similar look.\n\n",

"body": "\n\nThis all probably bogs down to Nero's whimsical nature and \"padoru\" is just\nsome mumble jumbo that took on a life of its own as a meme. As some may not be\naware the Saber-class servant Nero Claudius is a bad, off-key singer, much\nlike the Lancer-class Elisabeth Bathory.\n\nNero herself has no particular skills or feats that would qualify her to be a\nSaber class servant and only has any sword skills as a [direct\nresult](https://www.tmdict.com/book/#fate-extra-material) of her Imperial\nPrivilege skill.\n\nNero's feats in bad singing is [derived from](http://www.factfiend.com/nero-\nbad-singer-audience-pretend-dead/) historical fact. Nero's off-key singing in\nthe Type Moon Ace Fate/Extra short is a direct play off of this.\n\nThe [so-called](http://www.mahoroba.ne.jp/~gonbe007/hog/shouka/jingleb.html)\noriginal wording of the \"Jingle Bells\" lyrics go something like:\n\n> 走れそりよ 風のように 雪の中を 軽く早く (かるくはやく, karuku hayaku, more or less with gentle\n> swiftness)\n\nNo official explaination has been provided in canonical material, but a\ncertain FGO Summer racing even, Nero is [seen and\nheard](https://i.stack.imgur.com/XmQJN.jpg) singing a similar song, but with\nroses (bara/バラ/ばら) in place of certain words for no explained reason. \"Bara\"\nand the \"Pado\" in \"padoru/パドる\" use katakana, normally used for foreign (loan)\nwords, instead of hiragana, normally used for standard Japanese words.\n\nRose in Japanese is written as 薔薇 (ばら), which is notorious for how hard it is\nto remember, so it is typically spelled out using kana as バラ.\n\nA characteristic in Japanese that is not well understood or articulated is how\nthe Japanese use katakana and hiragana as a literary device. It's not easy to\narticulate the nuisance if something such as an foreign accent or emphasis on\ncertain words in Japanese writing as there are set pronunciations for each\ncharacter. The nuisance of using katakana for a name can express the\nforeignness of the name or boldness) harshness of it's pronunciation or tone,\nakin to using UPPERCASE vs. lowercase can put emphasis or create the nuisance\nof shouting in written dialog. The lack of kanji in written text can also\nconvert the simplicity of one's character or dialog. For an example, to convey\nthe nuance ifca child talking vs that of an adult, a child speaking might only\nuse hiragana, while a adult mixes hiragana and kanji when talking.\n\nA simple example can be seen in the Yotsuba: [](https://i.stack.imgur.com/E7wIi.jpg)\n\nThe use of different fonts also helps add emphasis to the nuance between how\nthey speak.\n\nWhile there are no lyrics for context in the Type Moon Ace short, the FGO\nSummer event provides some context that we can infer thru how it is written\nand the literary intend from whomever authored or oversaw the dialogue.\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/XmQJN.jpg)\n\nRoses and padding make very little sense in this context, especially is land\nracing.\n\nOnce interpretation can be that what is likely being conveyed is the whimsical\nand child-ish tone of Nero's bad singing and the fact that she doesn't\nremember or intentionally ignores the proper lyrics and (indirectly on the\naudience) asserts her Imperial Privilege to insert whatever she fancies into\nthe lyrics, and establishing them as the proper lyrics as no one bothers\ncorrecting her.\n\nIn essence \"padoru\" has no real meaning us is just a bit if a filler that the\noff-key Nero probably misheard and went along with.\n\n",

If you recall,\nthey don't have just one snail and it changes facial expressions and clothes\nhidden in its shell or something. If you recall, Doflamingo had like 50 snails\nand they all looked like someone else as in they are linked specifically to\nthe other person and only them which is why they look like them. He isn't the\nonly person with multiple snails.\n\nWhat I wanted to know is if they dress their snails like freakin barbie dolls\nor do the snails somehow transform. What was contradicting was how the navy\nwas able to listen in. That would mean they must be linked to specific snails\nand know who they belong to.\n\nThey have snail numbers so you can call someone else's snail specifically\nwhich as I said, contradicts the previous statement. Also if you recall the\nstart of Punk Hazard, they got a call from a random person on the island, also\nhow do Big Mom's tracker snails work where they call the ship upon entering\ntheir space?\n\nI really don't know what to think. It's all confusing and changes at any given\ntime. Another strange thing is why did they become straight snails when they\nused to be round ones. They used to be in their shells and now their in bamboo\nshoots or something. I think it was Dressrosa where it first happened.\n\nIMO, it's one of those things, don't worry how you got there just enjoy the\nride.\n\n",

With Boruto's gale palm he makes wind element come from his palm and it\nlooks very similar to the gentle fist but it's not. If your like oh he can see\ncharka points, well his jougan can see charka points, portals and many more\nthings. Even if he can see the points he can't really do the gentle fist\nbecause in the hyuga fighting style they infuse charka into their hands\nmeaning Boruto will have to learn the hyuga fighting style and infusing charka\ninto his hands. Now I remember seeing one person say that he got trained by\nhis grandpa and mother in the hyuga fighting style. I believe that that's\nfalse because he seems to be using a fighting style very similar to that of\nNaruto's.\n\nFor Boruto's rasengan, Boruto has done 5 different rasengans so far in the\nanime. The first one he made is the vanishing rasengan which is when he adds\nlighting element to his rasengan, and he does so without knowing. The second\none is when Naruto helped Boruto do a very super big rasengan simliar to the\nsuper odama rasengan. The third one he has done is the normal rasengan which\nyou all probably know about. The fourth is Boruto's wind style rasengan which\nis different to the rasen-shuriken because the rasen-shuriken is basically\nmore of a shuriken then a wind style rasengan. The fifth one he has made is\nthe high compression rasengan(since boruto didn't have vast amounts of charka\nthat Naruto did he couldn't make his rasengans very big. So what he did was\ncompress his rasengan to make the impact even stronger.)\n\n",

Hence they do not have ki\nlike a normal human being. The robots, on the other hand, have ki which can be\nsensed. We know this when **Dr Paparoni uses his staff and the androids begin\nto powerup**.

Also, we see Goku using the **instant transmission to save android 18**\nand the instant transmission mainly requires **finding someone's key**.

{
"body": "\n\n_What is ki?_ \nIt's a form of life force energy used by characters in the Dragon Ball\nUniverse. \n \nWe consider the aura to be a form of ki and yes it is! Rather than ki, you\nshould look at it as energy. They might both sound very similar but look at it\nthis way. The ki blast fired by a character is different from the ki used\nwhile flying. So the aura has to do more about powering up and using energy. A\ngood way to look at the same is if Android 17 were to have unlimited ki in\nterms of strength, he would technically be stronger than even the Grand Priest\nbecause of his unlimited strength, however, the androids only have unlimited\nstamina(life-energy source).Think of Android 17's power up to him using all\nhis strength. \n \nWe know all living beings in Dragon Ball have ki. We also know that the amount\nof ki can be increased or by **training** and altered by **transformations**\nor special skills like the **Kaio-Ken**. We also know that this **Ki** is not\nunlimited irrespective of who the being is. There have been many instances\nwhere a character ( **Didn't have enough energy to fight** ) or didn't have\nsufficient amount of energy to power up etc which is why they consume **Senzu\nbeans**. \n\nAndroids, on the other hand, have a special or unnatural energy source such\nthat their ki capacity is unlimited. Unlike the other species(All species\nshown on Dragon Ball as of now). Due to the same, androids also have\ndifficulty in sensing ki the way other species do and need special\nmodifications to help locate a particular fighter.\n\nThere is not definite available answer but this is what I believe. I think the\namount of ki associated with stamina and energy has nothing to do with one's\nstrength. In other words, when Goku uses his Super Saiyan transformations and\nalters his ki, I don't think he gains more life support or more stamina(as a\nmatter of fact, he loses more stamina), yet his ki is altered. The same\napplies with regard to the androids. The only difference is, the androids have\nan unlimited source of life-energy(Stamina associated ki). We know Android 17\nand even 18 obviously have gotten a lot stronger since the android saga. If\nthey had a fixed capacity of strength ki, they wouldn't have been able to get\nstronger. \nAlso, Koicherator, Aniraza, and the Androids shouldn't be confused with.\n\n* Koicherator is a robot. They are 100% mechanically designed. They can power up or gain energy only by physical manipulation i.e(By designing them that way or by using a special power-up like the one Dr.Paparoni used).\n* Aniraza is a fusion between Paproni and the Robot. It is not technically a modification like in case of the androids. I would compare it to the Potara fusion and fusion dance. We know Kefla's ki increased both strength wise and even stamina wise after the Potara fusion. Aniraza could be compared to that.\n* Finally, Android 17 is a cyborg. He was a human-modified with mechanical parts. He has a special modification in him which gives him unlimited stamina. Since he's part human, he does have an unnatural source of Ki and also has the ability to get stronger with training, unlike Koicherator and Aniraza. \n\n",

At this point, he looks\nunbeatable and probably a Shichibukai by then.\n\nMihawk is lonely and looks like he wants to be left in peace in the country\nwhere he resides, so my conclusion is that: he became a Shichibukai to be left\nalone, and also what [Shifty's answer\nstated](https://anime.stackexchange.com/a/44807/2516) that he also seems to\nwant to freely move and why not obtain assets from the title.\n\n",

"body": "\n\nTwo reasons: Rarity and plot.\n\nExodia is supposedly the strongest monster and summoning him means you win. In\nnormal circumstances, summoning Exodia is very hard, and decks that can are\nhard to pull it off: You draw a starting hand of 5 cards out of a minimum deck\nof 40 cards. This means you need to draw 5 specific cards in the entire deck,\nwhich is roughly 0,00000152 or a 0,000152% chance to pull it off in the\nstarting hand.\n\nDecks that can achieve win safely by turn 1 need to resort in some sort of\ntutoring and drawing out those 5 pieces. Cards that used to help were Pot of\nGreed and Graceful Charity, the first drawing 2 cards (a 2:1 ratio) and the\nsecond drawing 3 but forcing you to discard 2 (1:1 ratio), yet they were both\nway too powerful and eventually got banned, forcing Exodia to be a random\nwinning condition for certain rare decks.\n\nAnd that's only if you actually OWN those 5 pieces. The Rare hunter owns\ncounterfeits, and the other owners of the cards opt for other ways to use\nthem, such as Exodia Necross.\n\nThe difficulty alone is why Yugi was most likely the first person in the\nfuture world known for summoning Exodia.\n\nThe other fact is that it is a plot point. Yugi needs to become notorious in\nthe card game community by being essentially a rising star that is strong\nenough of a challenge for many. This draws more people towards Yugi, like Seto\nKaiba (who was considered the strongest duelist), Pegasus and pretty much\neveryone else that challenges him in the series.\n\n",

"body": "\n\nThere are a few things to consider about the game in the _Yu-Gi-Oh!_ universe\nand why people couldn't play Exodia:\n\n 1. The game was still not that popular even in it's own universe when the show began. There where many people who didn't knew anything about the game and it was only successful because Industrial Illusions was sponsoring the tournaments and was creating the cards, while KaibaCorp provided dueling fields which would make the game more entertaining for the players and those who watched the tournaments on the TV. Ratings probably skyrocketed when people started to watch other people who summon monsters and battle with them. As time progresses, the game started to become more and more popular. Kaiba is the main reason the game became as popular as it did in the DM universe. Which is why when GX begins, there are schools that train people who want to become professional duelists. Kaiba was directly responsible for the creation of such schools, because he realized that many people didn't play their cards properly during tournaments. Which is why the PRO league was exclusive only for strong duelists and it served to further promote the game to the world and make it more popular. \n\n(Anyway I got a bit off-topic)\n\n 2. Game shops, like the one Solomon Muto had, where the only places where you can find and buy cards, and no one was selling cards online like we do now in the real world. So players in the anime only had 2 options: buy boosters to find strong cards, or trade with the people available around them.\n\n 3. If you have read carefully the stuff I wrote above, you should now have a better understanding as to why not many people had the pieces of Exodia. Especially the entire set. I figure that many people didn't want to trade or exchange the Exodia piece they had, because they themselves wanted to find and have all pieces and didn't wanna give away the pieces they already had. And those who where petty about it would not give someone their piece because they wouldn't wanna help someone gather the most powerful monster in the entire game.\n\n 4. Rare cards are rare for a reason in the show. They are hard to find and only have limited numbers of copies released. For example, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon only had 4 copies **in the entire world.** This tells you the possibilities of finding rare cards and building a strong deck. Rich people like Kaiba could use their connections and resources to track down the cards they needed. This is how Kaiba found the three Blue-Eyes White Dragons. And Leon von Schroeder wrote to Pegasus and requested an entire archetype of fairy tale monsters to be created for him. Pegasus liked the idea so he granted the request. But he probably didn't grant other requests, like releasing more copies of rare cards. Which is why in the _Yu-Gi-Oh!_ universe, there are not many people playing with the same decks like in the real world. The rare hunter called Seeker, who beat Joey with Exodia, used fake pieces of that monster since he probably couldn't find the real cards.\n\n 5. Even if someone did have Exodia in their deck, the probability of drawing all five pieces was very low. A player's entire deck must be build on cards that prevent your opponent from attacking you, and cards which allows you to draw and search the pieces. Seeker used three (fake) copies of Exodia to increase the chances of drawing a part, and he used cards that allow him to draw, to speed up that process.\n\nOther characters like Gozaburo Kaiba and Adrian Gecko used alternative\nstrategies with Exodia, because drawing the parts was not efficient and fast\nenough to win a duel. Gozaburo decided to dump the parts in the graveyard\ninstead of drawing them, in favor of playing Exodia Necros, which may not give\nyou an instant win, but the monster couldn't be destroyed and it became more\nand more powerful with each turn.\n\nAdrian, meanwhile, used Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord, and he could\neither defeat his opponents with attacks from Exodius who becomes stronger and\nstronger with each normal monster he sends to the graveyard when he attacks,\nor automatically win when he sent all 5 pieces of Exodia to the graveyard by\nthe effect of Exodius.\n\nSo this pretty much sums up why no one was able to summon Exodia until the\nfirst duel between Kaiba and Yugi. I hope that this was useful and fun to\nread.\n\n",

The extent of the problem was not understood\nimmediately. I believe Kite was the best hunter to face the ants originally.\nThe other hunters tended to be new, such as Gon, Killua, and Pokkle. That ...\ndidn't go well (for the hunters).\n\n> Kite and Pokkle were killed. Nen information was gathered from Pokkle's\n> brain, and Kite's reanimated body was used for training of the ants.\n\nAfter that, new hunters were kept away, and more experienced hunters were sent\nto gather information and make a plan. They seemed to have been led by Morel\nand his crew, Knov, Knuckle, and Shoot. Gon and Killua were not allowed to\nreenter until they could prove themselves to Knuckle and Shoot. I think they\nwere given a month. In the end, those four and Palm were allowed entry.\n\nA plan was accepted and modified by the Hunter Organization, and we saw what\npart the aforementioned folks did within the ant-claimed territory. We didn't\nsee the whole plan, though. Not even Morel knew the full extent of the plan.\n\n> Netero prepared himself with a poisoned nuclear device (\"rose\") implanted\n> within his body, and he hired Zeno Zoldyk to make a grand entrance with him\n> at the ant King's castle. Netero probably knew he would have to use the\n> rose, although I'm sure he hoped he could beat the King without it. Netero\n> intentionally gave up his honor in his fight. The only honorable thing he\n> did was tell Mereum his name. Mereum made multiple attempts to discuss co-\n> existence with Netero, and in their fight he only acted defensively. Netero\n> ignored that for fear of losing his resolve to win at all costs.\n\nI don't believe members of the Zodiac would have been helpful. They were\nindeed powerful, but their talents did not fit the plan. Ging may well have\nbeen rejected from consideration outright, being thought a loose cannon. He\ncould not be depended on to follow the plan as events on the ground evolved,\nespecially if a peaceful resolution should present itself.\n\n",

I don't think Netero could agree with Meruem and then\nreport to the world governments like \"Meruem is a good guy. I made a contract\nwith him, but 99% of the human population will die, only the 1% whose Meruem\nvalue will be saved.\"\n\nNetero _did not have_ an option. Don't get me wrong, I love Meruem a lot. I\ndon't even blame the ants at all, but I hate when fans have a misconception\nand say things like \"Netero is evil, he did not want to listen to Meruem\". No\none was wrong, there was a conflict of ideologies and even if ants and humans\ncould cooexist, it would not be 100% sure.\n\n> Netero intentionally gave up his honor in his fight.\n\nPeople think like that because of the tone the author decides for Netero's\ndeath. But Netero fought Meruem alone, respected and thought he lived only for\nthat moment, and in the end gave up his life for humanity.\n\nPeople need to realize that you can't decide which one is wrong or right\nbecause of sentiments, there was a real implication for the outcome of the\nbattle. And humanity is not only about flowers and love, but there is also\nnihilism, war, weapons, poverty.\n\nThe whole point of the arc was about surviving. And in the end, humanity\nsurvived even if it cost their own humanity.\n\n",

"body": "\n\nWell, the answer to the same would be very opinionated and not factual. Some\nof these may be interesting reasons why the same is popularly used.\n\n * Toriyama wasn't sure as to what to name his Kame attack and it was his wife who came up with the same and it was named after the Hawaiian King.\n * Also, the same attack is very iconic and it was introduced even early in the Original Dragon Ball Series by Master Roshi which was immediately mastered by Goku in a few seconds. Unlike the other mentioned attacks.\n * Also, this attack has always been considered as a signature move of the main character Goku.\n * The _Dragon Ball Franchise_ is indeed very popular and even those who haven't watched the franchise have an idea as to who Goku is. Hence it makes a lot more sense for people to remember the signature move of the main character.\n * Another fun fact is that Akira Toriyama did a lot of different poses until he finally decided on something which he considered cool and I think the hand movement made while launching this attack is also very iconic and popular and emulated by a lot of Dragon Ball fans. Hence this attack is easy to identify by simply looking at the hand movement which is probably why it is used a lot.\n\nSource: [Dragonball Wikia -\nKamehameha](http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Kamehameha)\n\n",

"body": "\n\nThe answer to the same would be both **_Saonel and Pirina_**.\n\nWe don't know for sure as to **which of the two is stronger** as they fought\nas a team more or less. However, I think it's fair to assume they are\n**equally strong as superior to Picollo in strength.** There might have been a\ncouple of instances or statements made in the episode where Picollo might have\nappeared to be stronger than the two, which mustn't be confused with.\n\nHere is a list of my supporting arguments: (Please Note: We don't see Saonel\nand Pirina fighting at full power in their first match against Picollo which\nis why I'm going to only make reference to the second episode they fought\n_(Episode 118)_.\n\n* Once Picollo fires **multiple Ki Blasts at Pirina** , he is complete unfazed by it and pushes back Picollo with ease. We see Picollo struggling to **push back Pirina's hand with both his hands, while Pirana doesn't even seem to be trying.**\n* Picollo is **terrified of their strength** as he senses a lot of absorbed namekians.\n* Gohan turns _Ultimate Gohan_ to save Picollo. Also note that despite Gohan training for a brief period, based on the recent episodes, I think it is safe to assume that **Ultimate Gohan is definitely significantly stronger than he was during the Buu arc. He's most definitely stronger than Super Saiyan God Goku and around the same level as Android 17 who is very powerful indeed.**\n* Gohan fights at full power and seems to be doing very well. However, what made **Pirina and Saonel a lot more powerful** was their **teamwork** and combinations.\n* Gohan also stated that since the two of them were very strong, they would be able to tank the **Special Beam Cannon** which is more of a killing move.\n* We see **Pirina tank the first attack** which shocked Picollo. An argument might be made that **Picollo didn't charge the attack enough**. However, he did have a decent amount of time to charge the attack.\n* Making a reference to an old nostalgic moment in the Dragon Ball Z, where Raditz fought Goku and Picollo, we see Raditz impressed by the attack the first time around when it shatters his armour and barely dodges it. The second time around it was strong enough to both kill him and Goku. I'm not stating that this attack is unblockable. Some of the high tier fighters like Goku, Vegeta and obviously the God tier characters like Jiren wouldn't have any trouble. We see Jiren even block Hit's killing shockwave which was strong enough to almost kill SSJB Goku in one shot.\n* In the end, it was obviously because of Picollo's attack which gave Universe 7 the win and one of the two Namekians after getting hit by the special beam cannon said **\"So that's the true power of a Universe 7 Namekian\"**. Many might assume this implied that Picollo was stronger. However, this was just a **remark made on the powerful attack** which Picollo had enough time to charge his attack without engaging in battle. This can be compared to Goku and Vegeta's beam struggle with Koichierator and Gohan's attack after. **Goku and Vegeta didn't give it their all and didn't charge up their attack enough** while Gohan charged his attack enough and his beam attack was stronger than the combined attack of Vegeta and Goku, which again doesn't imply Gohan being superior in strength to the two.\n \n\nHence if it wasn't for Gohan and Picollo had to face a Namekian by himself, I\nwould say Picollo wouldn't stand a chance.\n\n \n\n# Images supporting the arguments made.\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/LGcZU.jpg</li)\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/eakaM.jpg)\n\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/kcfwN.jpg)\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/y3Sey.jpg)\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/uxp7H.jpg)\n[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/t5XRL.jpg)\n\n",

The best\ndefinition I can come up with is:\n\n * Having something worth dueling for besides yourself (e.g. friendship)\n * Having faith that your cards will come through for you when you need them to\n\nIn _Yu-Gi-Oh!_ 1x22 \"Face Off, Part 1\", Seto Kaiba comes to an understanding\nof what the Heart of the Cards is, focusing on the first definition.\n\n> Kaiba: Yugi, you said you won [last time we dueled] by tapping into the\n> Heart of the Cards. And for a long time, I didn't know what that meant. But\n> now, I think I do. And it took Pegasus to show me. _[Kaiba pulls out a\n> necklace with a picture of Mokuba as a kid]_ He gave me a reason to put my\n> heart in the cards. […] For the first time, Yugi, I can duel with fire and\n> passion in my heart.\n>\n> Yugi: I can feel it. _[Yugi thinks to himself]_ Kaiba has changed. I can\n> sense it. He's fighting for more than just himself this time. There's a new\n> belief…in the Heart of the Cards.\n\nI'm pretty sure that Kaiba later mocks Yugi for the Heart of the Cards, but in\nthis scene at least, Yugi flat out agrees that Kaiba is believing in the Heart\nof the Cards.\n\nIn the _Yu-Gi-Oh! GX_ two-parter \"The King of Copycats\" (1x18 and 1x19), Jaden\nYuki duels a copycat duelist who steals Yugi's deck and pretends to be him.\nNaturally, the copycat starts talking about the Heart of the Cards.\n\n> [Draws a card] Perfect! The Heart of the Cards has served me again!\n\nJaden starts lamenting that he can't beat a deck with the Heart of the Cards\nbefore he gets insight from Winged Kuriboh.\n\n> Yugi's deck is just so powerful.

Oh! Wait a\n> sec, that's it! That's Yugi's Deck! There's no way the heart of the cards\n> can be on Dimitri's side! The Heart of the Cards come from believing in your\n> own cards, not someone's you stole!\n>\n> _[Winged Kuriboh nods in approval]_\n>\n> And I believe in my deck. So if the Heart of the Cards is on anyone's side,\n> it's on mine!\n\nHe then draws the card he needs to turn the duel in his favor.\n\n* * *\n\nMy interpretation of these events is that the Heart of the Cards does work for\nanybody, but not everyone has an equally strong faith in it, or is attuned to\nthem using it. There have been cases where the person dueling for the right\nreason wins, and there have been times when someone draws the one card they\nneed without necessarily relying on the Heart of the Cards. Heck, I even saw\none fan theory saying that Mai's supposed psychic powers was her using the\nHeart of the Cards and not realizing it.\n\nBut given that apparently anyone can use it, even Seto Kaiba, I think that\nyes, anybody can use it.\n\n",
