Is there a continuation to Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children?
Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is a 3D anime movie I watched more than some years ago and it's been a long time I've been searching for it's continuation story.
Is there such a continuation to it?

Final Fantasy VII, as you probably already know, originally started as a game. There have been several installments as either games or animes. With regards to story in chronological order, there is a game set a year after the events in Advent Children. It's called Final Fantasy VII - Dirge of Cerberus. Vincent Valentine is the main protagonist in this game. The story is indeed connected overall to the series, but it isn't exactly that much relevant to Advent Children.

is there a movie before the advent children instead

@bzal there's a Crisis Core anime but this would pale in comparison to the PSP game of the same name. both star Zack during the period before Sephiroth went insane and also shows you the fates of Zack and Cloud before the start of VII. there is also the On the Way to a Smile mini series set after VII but before Advent Children though i havn't seen it myself

@Memor-X, what is the title of the mini series?

@bzal "there is also the On the Way to a Smile mini series"

@Memor-X, :-) I thought that was only an expression

@Memor-X, I checked out what you said but it appears it's only an audiobook series, is it? or are there real episodes we could enjoy watching?

@bzal it may only have been Denzel's Episode to be animated

On the way to a smile is basically a series of novellas.

@bzal to be exact, the OVA adaptation of Crisis Core is Last Order: Final Fantasy VII.

Advent Children(AC), Before Crisis(BC), Crisis Core(CC), Dirge of Cerberus(DC).Coincidence ?

Now all these comments made me even more confuser? So....... what should I see directly after FFVII.(I'm not into games so just movie suggestions please?)

@bzal Final Fantasy is a game series. The main part of the plot is in games, so you're going to have to play games if you want to experience the entire story. You didn't mention if you played the first FFVII game but Advent Children really exists to give closure for its ambiguous ending, and all these other spinoffs are just to clarify some plot points from the game or show fans what happened to their favorite character. If you just want to watch some fight scenes with no context, it doesn't matter what order you take these things in; to follow the plot, you have to play the original game.

@Torisuda is right. The main story of the series is all lumped into the games. The animes are just a really very small part of the whole story. If you just watch those, I am pretty sure the story won't make much of a sense. Though the action is really cool if you're into that.
If you're not into old games, a remake of Final Fantasy VII is coming on the new consoles. It will still take quite some time though to release.

Why isn't Digimon consistent with its rule mechanics per story/season title?
After reading this review about Digimon:

While the general basis of relationships between the show's kids and their digital companions remained constant over the course of the series, almost everything else went through many makeovers.
Some seasons feature seven human visitors to DigiWorld; others,
as few as three. In early episodes, the kids can't get back home; later stories show a new cast of youngsters effortlessly
journeying between the two worlds. And while in most stories each
kid has his own specialized Digimon sidekick, a full season of
episodes featured humans who could transform into the digital
beings rather than just summon them for battles.
Youngsters will certainly find this lack of continuity confusing, and parents may be wary of introducing their kids to yet another marketing conglomerate looking to rival Pokemon. (Digimon boasts a similar assortment of tie-in video games, trading cards, virtual pets, and other toys.) And it's worth noting that although the show's violence is mostly of the flashy, fantasy variety and battles are reserved for the digital beings, those who are seriously injured dissolve into pieces that are said to regroup and reincarnate at a later date.

(Emphasis added)
Anime titles that have certain rules like Pokemon's battling system, Bakugan, B-daman, and Yu-Gi-Oh's Trading Card Game; with every season or arc, those anime change the concept a lot but not the "in-universe rules". See Zoids for example. We see different Zoids titles, but they still stay consistent with the rule that there's an MC that has a Zoid as the Mech Pilot fighting other Zoid pilots. Yu-Gi-Oh battle with cards, and Pokemon with its concept of Gotta catch 'em all, battle with other trainers and wild Pokemon and compete in a league.
However, in Digimon, as a season/title ends, they make these makeovers in the story's scenarios and mechanics of the rules of battle.
For example, in the first season of the Digimon series (Digimon Adventure), we see 7 Chosen Ones who were transported to the Digital World. In there, they meet their seven companion Digimons (one partner for each).
The second season continues the first with the 2 veterans and 3 new Digi-destined. Nothing wrong there, then they throw in Frontier in which the humans transform into Digimons (as armor) and they were the ones fighting instead of the Digimons (Power Rangers style).
Also, in Digimon Adventure and Digimon Xros Wars, the "Chosen Ones" were having difficulties returning to the Real World, but the other titles can cross easily between worlds.
Is this because they were being called Pokemon's "rip-off"? Or is it a marketing strategy because like Pokemon, they also sell merchandise and trading cards? Is there any detailed explanation for this?

the "make over" in Digimon i don't see nearly as drastic as Kaiba making up his own VR game, Duke forcing Yugi to play Dungeon Dice Monsters, Kaiba making new rules for Battle City, the Seal of Orichalcos allowing for 2 rows of monsters, Capsule Monsters or the final Shadow Game between Yami Yugi and Yami Bakura. the only real sudden change i saw in Digimon was Frontier however Digi-Spirits could be seen as the natural progression from the fusion-digivolusion from Tamers

This talks about the "Per Title" basis.. everytime a new title comes up it doesn't follow its own rules and keeps variating unlike Pokemon which sticks to its "purpose".

Other than the Adventure series, the other Digimon series like Tamers, Frontier, Savers, Xros Wars take place in alternate universes with their own respective rules, all they have in common is the name Digimon, so obviously they do not have to abide by the rules of their predecessors though they are all Digimon shows. Also, the core purpose of the shows are friendship, battle and triumph over evil, all that other shounen elements, I do not think it has strayed from that path all that much.

@AstralSea can you post this as an answer I think you've got a point

I am incapable of giving a very good answer for this question, but I will try my best. As I have mentioned in my comment, the Digimon series is rebooted every title except for the Adventure series. The reason for this is most likely due to the fact that they feature a ageing cast instead of a Sazae-san type of show, where the characters never age, Pokemon falls into this category, so they follow Ash around for nearly 20 years.
After a little more thought, there is actually a very logical explanation for why Digimon was rebooted every time, it is mainly to keep it fun. For example, Pokemon has kept Ash at 10 so it is relatable to the children of every generation and thus keep it running for years and years, however, the defect is that Ash can never mature beyond a certain extent. Introduce Ash to new region, tell same story.
In Digimon's case, it is different, in every series, a large world threatening evil appears and the children grow and mature into near adults in their journey that spans the entire Digital World, the entire part is important as that means they are exhaustive, unlike Pokemon, which can just give a new region. Therefore, if it was Taichi and his group just going around defeating world threatening evil in a new region as they age, how horribly boring and awkward will that feel. Imagine a 20 year old jumping around shouting: "Me and Agumon will solve this with friendship!"
Therefore, to keep the Digimon series interesting while keeping the part of a world threatening evil and a journey that covers the entire world still existent and thus attract its audience, innovation is needed, so it is rebooted.
Therefore, with every series, they only thing that remains the same is

Main character: Stereotypical Hot-blooded Shounen Guy
Problem is solved through friendship and all that other rubbish
Main Digimon is also a Stereotypical Hot-blooded Shounen Guy that follows main character's ideals

With every reboot, a new creation mythos is made for the show, therefore, each series features a different Digital World with its own unique origins. The traversing part about between the worlds in the shows is actually fixed, the main thing is you need a key or a great enough power in the form of a portal is required to traverse between the worlds.

Adventure 01: Portals
Adventure 02: D-3 Digivice + digital platform such as a computer = Portal
Tamers: Portals
Frontier: Trains + Portals
Savers: Portals
Xros Wars: Xros Loader + Power = Portal

The thing about Frontier is different  only in the form of having Humans as the Digimon instead but this is most likely to be an innovation for the show in order to attract a larger group of audience, a cheap market trick.
One more thing, the concept of the DigiDestined is not present in the other series, it is only in Adventure that this concept exists as a plot device. The children in the other series is still referred as such mostly in the west only. Therefore, the point is do not think the other main characters are "chosen" like Taichi and his group. They are just a bunch of random  shounen-esque children that had a meeting with the Digimon that forever changed their lives.

Main character & Main Digimon: Stereotypical Hot-blooded Shounen Guy didn't thought about that before.but it makes sense. Taichi and Agumon, and the MC in Xros wars and his digimon Shoutmon has this characteristic.

If you have not watched the other series, all of them are like this. Then, they mature from whiny little kids to serious heroes, this cannot be repeated with the same characters, so they reboot the series and tell the story of new whiny little kids.

Digimon seasons past the first 2 ones (unless when it's Tri and perhaps Adventure Reboot) are more willing to give any human superpowers (Matrix Digivolution in Tamers, Spirit Evolution in Frontier, and so on) as well as having Digital lifeforms when making Digimons no longer only Superpowered Beings that exists in these digimon seasons.

Did Fairy Tail go on hiatus again after episode 277 (or episode 102 after the 2014 restart)?
After episode 277 (counting from the 2014 restart, around episode 102), there are no listed episodes in list of Fairy Tail episodes on Wikipedia. It's due to have some new OVA as well, but the anime did not give a clear indication like the last time that it is going to hiatus.
My questions are:

Is it on hiatus right after episode 277 (counting from 2014, episode 102)?
Did Hiro Mashima gave some indication (like last time) that it will be back and when it will be back?

March 26, 2016 was when episode 277 aired. that was like 4 days ago and if you look at the time between most episodes a new episode is aired every week.

what have you said is true but do not give any incite to what i have asked.there is there is a rumor  that Fairy Tail  will stop temporally to gain more gap between manga and anime ,i'm asking is it already happened or can we expect more episodes before that ?

why is everyone down voting this question ... i mean what is wrong with it ??

I down voted because there is nothing in your question which leads to any sort of indication that the series could be on hiatus, instead it reads as wild speculation just because Wikipedia may not have been updated. while you mention a rumour in your comment this is not in your question nor is there any citation of this rumour (like where you heard it from)

But it is on a hiatus and validity of the question is OK but nvm

a question is evaluated by the question alone, not by any answer that may or may not be given. if that was the case then why do so many very low quality id request which get high quality answers still get down voted while the answer gets up voted?

Yes, Fairy Tail is on hiatus after episode 101

After making its premiere in April 2014, this season is finally coming to an end after 101 episodes, with the final episode to be released on March 26.
(Emphasis added)

Hiro Mashima didn't gave clear indication that it will be back or when it will be back, but fans speculated a 1-year long hiatus just like the previous.

The current season of the anime may be nearing its end, but reports suggest that a new project is in the works, with the publisher of the manga, Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine, slated to officially reveal the rumored project in its 17th issue of the year on March 23.
http://www.hngn.com/articles/190587/20160319/fairy-tail-anime-reportedly-new-project-store-fans.htm
Kodansha did not hint at what the new project will be, but this is not the end for the Fairy Tail anime.  This is most likely a hiatus, similar to the one that was taken in 2013.
http://goboiano.com/news/4176-the-current-fairy-tail-anime-is-ending-on-march-26
They stopped airing the anime in the year 2013 and came back in the year 2014. So majority of fans expect this Hiatus to be a year long.
http://www.otakuvines.org/2016/03/fairy-tail-anime.html

One of the reasons that may have caused it is the fact that the anime is close to the manga and in order to avoid changing the story (see Fullmetal Alchemist 2003 and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood), they've chose to let the manga go ahead in order to have the original source material.

the first quote does not add up, there has only been 12 episodes this year and there are well over 101 episodes. please cite where you got that quote from

Thanks a lot . remember on the last time when it went to hiatus anime gave a notice in the end , but on this time they did not gave a message like that in the end , so i was wondering what was going to happen ..

It was my pleasure to help you.
@Memor-X http://www.hngn.com/articles/190587/20160319/fairy-tail-anime-reportedly-new-project-store-fans.htm
Here is the source. I put it at point no.2  and I didn't thought that I should put it to no.1 too. My mistake.
And the quote reffers to Fairy Tail 2014 which has 102 episodes.
http://myanimelist.net/anime/22043/Fairy_Tail_2014
I did not take in consideration the original series, that run between 2009 and 2013, which has 175 episodes.

they are really going to stop after they get a couple of episodes into a new arc?

@Joe W I never watched Fairly Tail more than a few episodes so I do not really know the action of the anime arc  but I think is better that they stopped the anime and let the manga make some space with the action rather than continuing the anime , unfollowing the manga and ruining a rather good and popular anime series. It will probably start again having more source material to adapt (gained from this break).

But it still doesn't make sense to going on a break right after they start a new arc. I can see going on a break when you wrap up one arc and before you start on a new one.

@Joe W It was either a mistake in the production company in the airing schedule or they wanted to do so in order to create a bigger cliffhanger for the fans  (small chances for this to have actually happened). Most likely they realized that they've been running low on source material and decided to stop the anime at the same time as the Winter 2016 anime season ended in order to keep some kind of season airing symmetry so that they wouldn't stop airing in the middle of the Summer 2016 season (for example) and create even more confussion with a sudden and abrupt break.

Any updates for this?

What about Araragi's weight?
At the end of Bakemonogatari episode 2, Araragi claimed his normal weight is supposed to be 55kgs, but on the weighing scale, it showed 100kgs. He then said something about the crab and the episode ended. There was no sign as to what happened to the weight difference in the entire series.
I've only watched Bakemonogatari, so is there an explanation or something in the later series? Or the anime has mistaken it or ignored the fact of Araragi overweight?

This was also in the novels, but it was thrown in kind of half-jokingly.

At first I thought God was mistakenly return Senjougahara's weight to Araragi. as he said God are careless. Remember when Oshino also said that and gave the explanation about God that cant distinguish the age and gender of person.

I have watched all of the Monogatari series until the one before Owarimonogatari. I can tell you that Araragi's weight difference in episode 2 was never mentioned again. Throughout the entire series, only a few of the episodes (or maybe just one episode, not sure, it's a very long series) mentioned about the crab but only very briefly, didn't even talk about the weight problem.
That said, I don't think the anime made a mistake or ignored that fact. This is just how the Monogatari series is by nature. It tends to leave some stuff open-ended in kind of a humorous way. Though I watched back that episode and in the end, it did say that the reason for his weight increase was because the God was careless (as they don't really care about human's emotions, etc).

The words have a dual meaning.
In the case of Senjougahara, when they talk about the problem of weight and feeling, it is interesting because in Japanese, omoi means "weight" and "feeling" at the same time.
About Araragi, that new weight that he won is a metaphor for his new feeling for Senjougahara.

Actually, in Nisemonogatari ep. 09 (Tsukihi Phoenix arc), there is a scene where Araragi and Karen-chan play Janken, and when Karen-chan loses, she has to carry Araragi on shoulders as a punishment. You can see that he feels uncomfortable by knowing his weight and doesn't want to let Karen-chan know.

In the Bakemonogatari light novel, Mayoi Maimai part 5, Araragi narrates:

Senjougahara and I had gone to [Oshino] just last Monday about her problem--as well as on Tuesday, to deal with loose ends.

Later, in Koyomimonogatari, Koyomi Flower part 2:

With Oshino's help, we'd more or less taken care of her aberration-based malady--that had been just last night, and today we'd gone to see him again to tie up the loose ends, or to deal with the final cleanup, or to take care of the last few minor issues that had cropped up.
[...]
Incidentally, I'd ridden my bike to the ruined cram school the night before, but that day I walked there and back with her.
Circumstances--or inconveniences stemming from the previous night's resolution had ruled out my bike.
Happily, those inconveniences had been taken care of once and for all, so starting the next morning I'd be riding my beloved mountain bike around town again, the thought of which made me want to skip all the way home.

We can conclude with some degree of certainty that the extra weight made biking prohibitively difficult, and that Oshino Meme then cured it some way or another.

My original, anime-only answer:
Originally was going to be a comment on @Euzones' answer, but it may fit better as an answer of its own.
In Nisemonogatari episode 9, Araragi states that he weighs 56kg. The extra kilogram could be some kind of residual effect, entirely natural, or a somewhat silly lie.
Although he attempted to back out of riding on Karen's shoulders on the pretense of having gained weight from "studying too much", he was quite enthusiastic about this only ten seconds prior, with his second thoughts coming after she squatted down in order to pick him up. In light of the director's choices of camera angle, the events of the previous episode, and her later complaint of such, it seems likely that his hesitance is instead because he has suddenly gained an erection which he would prefer not to press against the back of her head. (Perhaps the light novel could clarify this?)
When he does run out of excuses, he awkwardly proceeds to willingly mount her, which would contradict his ongoing concern with protecting his sisters from knowledge of aberrations if he were exceptionally heavy.
In conclusion, at that point he no longer bore most if any of the extra weight.

It’s one of those things he’s just living with. A metaphor come to life or like in jujutsu kaisen patch face says the body is actually shaped by the soul. I honestly love it, I’m doing a rewatch and just tugging all heartstrings.

Are Coco and Jellal (aka Mystogan) siblings?
In the anime, it is hinted that Coco is the daughter of the king, but she does not seem like one, nor does anyone refer to her as one. Jellal (known as Mystogan in Earth Land) on the other hand is clearly the son and a prince and is more than a dozen times called prince. So that would make them siblings, but they don't act like they are siblings at all.
Are Coco and Jellal siblings? If so, why don't they act like it, and how come Coco doesn't appear to be a princess?

Based on what I recollect, I thought Coco was a messenger. When was it hinted that she was the daughter of the king?

Coco and Jellal are not siblings. According to http://fairytail.wikia.com/wiki/Coco, Coco is the Assistant Chief of Staff and she also serves as a messenger. The wiki page lists no relatives. She has a high standing in the royal court, but she is not a princess.

In the anime, Virgo called Lucy a princess so then you could hear Coco say "so she's a princess too", so it might be possible.

Welcome to [anime.se]. Could you mention the related episode to back up this answer?

What are these sea behemoths in One Piece?
In One Piece, the Straw Hat Pirates crew escapes from these behemoths shortly before arriving on the island chain with Bellamy.

What are these sea behemoths?

These are shadows, not monsters. These are explained by the fact that Sky Island is so high up in the air, the distance that the shadow is travelling is very far, making shadows cast very large.
Here you can see the same effect where Luffy's shadow is seen:

Skypiean giants.
I think they are almost the same as the ones from the Florian Triangle. The spear and there is no way a shadow in the sea, and the shadow above is in the air. These were throwing spears unless the things at the Florian Triangle were shadows. But they still may be shadows. Who knows if they had wings?

Shadows do not exist in the dark

What did Kirito say to Asuna while stargazing in the movie "Ordinal Scale"?
I just can't figure out what he said. My biggest assumption is "I love you", but that would be too mainstream.

The only clue we get is at the beginning of the movie where it starts with a star gazing scene. Unless he is inviting her to star gaze next year since the voice is muted I dont believe we are meant to know. Asuna looks down so probably what he said was embarrassing to her.

I believe he said "Will you marry me", kinda got it from reading his lips, but that's all I got.

Before Mikami committed suicide, was he still having faith in Kira?
At the end of Death Note, after Light is revealed as being Kira, Mikami goes on a little rant after their plan failed thanks to Near having switched the real Death Note. After that, however, Light denies knowing anything about Mikami.
After Light is shot several times by Matsuda Mikami then stabs himself with his pen, the fountain of blood and yelling grabs everyone's attention and as everyone goes to try to treat him, Light escapes.
However when Light denied knowing Mikami, Mikami looked depressed as if he had just been betrayed by his "god", but his suicide gives Light a distraction to flee.
So before Mikami committed suicide, was he still having faith in Kira?

Depends on how you see it because the reason is not specified (at least in the anime). It's totally based on speculation. It could be because he's given up on his task seeing that he's clearly outsmarted or because he is ashamed of being the reason Light failed or maybe as suggested in the manga, [SPOILER AHEAD] Near wrote his name in the real Death Note.

As mentioned there's kinda quite difference between the Anime and the Manga, once we will realise what made the the difference we will also realise that there's no difference.
In the Manga, the creators gave Light hell of humiliating death, after Light shout to everyone he knew and trusted (like in the anime) he's asking from Ryuk to write his name in the Death Note and then he's dying begging for his own life, but before the part he's shouting to to Misa and Takada, he's also shouting to Mikami, and he's responding, unlike the anime.

Mikami part in the Yellow Box wear house is ending after this, and in the last chapter it's been said Mikami had been suicide while in jail.
In the Anime on the other hand, to give Light much more less humiliating death, when Mikami sees Light lies in his own blood, he's stubbing himself with his own pen, the part where he talks to Light however is cut, the only clue to see his own feeling is this scene.

Except for Mikami suicide letting Light ran away from the ware house from his pitiful death in the manga, we can assume something much more that that scene - Mikami is so disappointed from Light, he was his god for every meaning, his psychological shock from sees his god roll-in in his own blood, gave him big mental shock - how can be his beloved god can be so humiliated? MadHouse clearly wanted us to understood that from that scene, in fact, his suicide scene in the anime make much more sense in the psychological way than in the manga, he dedicate his life for believing that Light is god and then he sees his own beloved "god" swimming in his own blood, there's no bigger mental shock than this.
To come and say that the anime cutting that scene for make Mikami not disappointed is exaggerate, Mikami sure looked disappointed from Light when he denied him, but after that Light talked to him about his mistake so he may regain his faith in him, but saying Mikami made suicide to let Light ran away is also exaggerating, human that reached to level where he decide to make suicide usually make those awful choices from hating their own lives and depression, not from some kind of "I will suicide to let him ran away", especially not from the look of Mikami before his own suicide, he clearly were not only disappointed from Light, but felt disappointed from his life for dedicating it for that god that swimming in his own blood, and I think it is clear enough.
Conclusion

Mikami did disappointed by Light at the end and didn't believed in him, and not only that but hated himself for following such "god", he killed himself.
Though Mikami's suicide benefit Light to escape, it only made by MadHouse to create different ending than the manga where Light died less humiliating.
It's unthinkable to say that Mikami made suicide to benefit Light to ran away, because even if it is, it's not 100% that Light would succeeded doing this, to risk your life for someone who just terribly humiliatingly lost and disappointed you for such low percentage of running it's too exaggerating, even for Death Note.

He had a lot of faith in Kira. So much so that he was even willing to sacrifice himself because he considered Kira as "god". Like Kira, he also has a strong sense of justice to punish evil.
During the warehouse scene, he had complete faith in Kira's plan. He was 100% sure that Kira would succeed and reign as the "God of the New World". But as all viewers who have finished Death Note know, Near outsmarted Kira.
Near asked one of his colleagues, Gevanni, to replace the Death Note in Mikami's locker. Because Mikami had a very predictable schedule pattern, this in turn, was also the downfall of Kira.
Seeing Near outsmart him, Kira snapped and began to disown Mikami.
Showing his incapability to turn the situation, Mikami began to doubt Kira... that he was just indeed, Human.

Fun fact: Mikami's death is very different in the manga. In the anime, he was shown to stab himself with a pen and died of blood loss. In the manga, he was imprisoned and then suddenly died. Matsuda began to suspect that Near killed Mikami.
TL;DR: Mikami had 100% trust in Kira before the warehouse scene. Kira snapping out/disowning him/being unable to turn the situation made him lose faith in Kira.

In my opinion based on the anime he was desperated but didn't lose faith on the mission, maybe he lost a little faith on Raito/Light seeing his no more as a "God", but a person that can fail as all of us. BUT i think (in the anime at least) he killed himself in a desperate way to buy sometime to outdraw the attention so Light AKA "God" could have time to escape.

Are Pluton and Uranus weapons too?
During Fishman arc, it was told that there used to be three weapons – Pluton, Uranus, and Poseidon.
We already know Poseidon is Shirahoshi, then what about Pluton and Uranus? And if those are weapons, then are they related to Void Century or way past from that time like Garden of Eden time?

You've answered yourself:

During Fishman arc, it was told that there used to be three weapons –
  Pluton, Uranus, and Poseidon.

Yes, they are all (ancient) weapons.
The first time an ancient weapon was mentioned was in Alabasta.
Crocodile asked King Cobra where he hid the Poneglyph containing information about Pluton, an ancient weapon.
Later in the show, we get more information about Pluton: It's a warship with the capabilities to conquer the world. The blueprints for this ship were passed down in a line of shipwrights for centuries, until they fell into Tom's hands - the legendary shipwright. Later they're burned by Franky to prevent the World Gov. (Spandam) from building the ship.
The only thing we know about Uranus is that it's an ancient weapon, nothing else.
We could assume its an aircraft or something similar, according to the other weapons.

Poseidon = Mermaid Princess = Underwater
Pluton = Ship = Surface
Uranus = ? = Air?

Is there no limit to power levels?
Since Jiren and Frieza don't have godly ki, we are able to understand that you can attain the power of a god through regular training; that regular ki can go as high as divine ki.
Based on existing knowledge, how much roughly is Jiren's full power level? (the power he plans to use on Beyond Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta and 20+ Kaio-Ken Super Saiyan Blue Goku).
My guess is based on Super Gogeta's power level of 2,500,000,000 that Jiren's full power level is 189,000,000,000,000,000.

I don't think this question is opinion based. Using comparison of existing power levels, an answer could be concluded. Note, the OP isn't asking for an exact number.

There are 2 questions here: 1) How much roughly is Jiren's full power level?, and 2) is power level limitless? Please focus on a specific question.

There are no power levels in Dragon Ball super. Most of the answers here are based on opinion. Also, Super Gogeta is not canon. Comparing a canon character with someone who doesn't make any sense. A better question would be how strong is Jiren compared to Goku and Vegeta or other acharacters in the T.O.P.

What is this question asking? The question in the body is different from the one in the heading ("What is the limit to power levels" vs "What is Jiren's power level". And all the answers are talking about multipliers instead of either of these.

@ShayminGratitude Just the usual fan obsession about power numbers even though the series recognized it as awful and limiting and so abandoned it entirely ages ago.

This question was closed as "unfocused" because, after a long time, the issue hasn't been fixed: the title and the question body asked 2 different questions, and some of the existing answers were interpreting the question differently due to that.

We have no idea which are the multipliers for super saiyan god and super saiyan blue, and we have no idea which is the current base power level of Goku and Vegeta, so it's impossible to give power levels with figures (numbers).
If we try to determine with a number the base power level of Goku and Vegeta (which seems to be about the same for both of them for the fights and sparrings they had in Dragon Ball Super) we find a lot of incongruences or very hard to fit situations. Also with the other transformations

Fake Vegeta in base form (which is as strong as Vegeta) was able to defeat SSJ3 Gotenks.
Goku in base form was able to overpower Freezer 4th form, Freezer 3rd form was able to almost kill super saiyajin Gohan.
In one movie Beerus says Goku in base form isnt as strong as Freezer (4th form)

So according to some data, Goku or Vegeta base form could be weaker than a super saiyajin, and according to other data it could be stronger than a SSJ3. Situations like those can only be fixed with speculation, no with the dialogue or things said by the authors because they just didnt try to fix those inconsistencies. So, being us unable to give number estimations since they could vary very widely, I believe this is the only thing we can say.
Super Saiyan Blue Kaiokenx20 of Goku, plus Ultra Super Saiyan Blue Vegita which seems to be in a similar level than Goku Super Saiyan Blue Kaiokenx20 , gave some fight but no damage to Jiren. This tells us that Goku (who is using the power of 20 super saiyan blue) plus Vegeta who is using a similar power (who together has a power around x40 super saiyan blue) are weaker than Jiren. Then Jiren power level has to be somewhere between x50 to x100 super saiyan blue.

In my opinion, no.
The multipliers were devised to keep in account how power scaling would work, in case the character undergoes any power up or transformation.
The multipliers assumed are:

Kaioken = x1.5
Kaioken x10 = x10
Kaioken x20 = x20
Super Saiyan = x50
Super Saiyan 2 = x100
Super Saiyan 3 = x400
Super Saiyan God = x15,000
Super Saiyan Blue = x25,000
Ultra Instinct "Omen" = x150 Super Saiyan Blue

The numbers calculated can be assumed to be partially correct because no track of power level was kept after Dragon Ball Z.

Goku (Suppressed) = 50,000,000,000
Jiren (Extremely Suppressed++) = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000
Goku (Super Saiyan) = 2,500,000,000,000
Goku (Super Saiyan 2) = 5,000,000,000,000
Goku (Super Saiyan God) = 750,000,000,000,000,000
Goku (Super Saiyan Blue) = 37,500,000,000,000,000,000 (Qaudrillion)
Goku (Super Saiyan Blue Kaioken x10) = 375,000,000,000,000,000,000
Jiren (Less Suppressed+) = 400,000,000,000,000,000,000
Goku (Super Saiyan Blue Kaioken x20) = 750,000,000,000,000,000,000
Jiren (Less Suppressed+)=1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
Piccolo = 32,000,000,000
Gohan (Suppressed) = 5,500,000,000
Vegeta (Suppressed) = 25,000,000,000
True Form Frieza = 5,000,000,000,000
Krillin = 740,000,000
Goku (Genki Dama/Spirit Bomb) = 900,000,000,000,000,000,000
Goku (Ultra Instinct) = 3,500,000,000,000,000,000,000
Jiren (Less Than 30%)=12,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

yeah, will do the same. Should I post other reference links as well?

if you use other sources to reference your answer then yeh it's a good idea

Could you please point to the specific Wikia articles mentioning this number? I failed to find the multipliers and exact power levels mentioned on this answer.

Jotaro vs Dio: How can Jotaro both move and stop time in road roller fight?
I don't get how Jotaro can launch his "oraoraora" against the road roller (7 seconds since time was stopped) and also stop time at the 9th second of Dio's "The World" ability (i.e. just before getting behind Dio).
From what I understand, Jotaro is able to move for 2 seconds in Dio's stopped time because Star Platinum is also able to stop it and they end in the same "stopped time dimension" together. So, I think Jotaro shouldn't be able to stop time after facing Dio's as he has already used his 2 seconds to stop the road roller between 7 and 9 seconds.
If instead "counterattack" and "stop time" are different ability, shouldn't Dio be able to fight back Jotaro?

You should try reading this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/StardustCrusaders/comments/4le7j4/spoliers_what_never_made_sense_about_part_3s/

Thanks,but still can't figure it out; also I've read these:
link
link

It seems that JoJo's Bizarre Adventure has so many plotholes especially in part 3. Imho, Jotaro having time-stop is like a Deus Ex Machina, there were no signs that he has that ability and it suddenly just appeared.
It seems that stopping time and moving in stopped time is a very different ability. Jotaro moving while Dio was ROAD RORA-ing him was sketchy. But if I have to put my thoughts, he did stopped time that's why he can move.
I think of it like this to simplify this problem in my head, if both time-stop users stops time then only they can move on the stopped time

That's more or less the same i've understood,but in this case Jotaro wouldn't have enought time to attack Dio...

Counterattack and time stop are the same thing. Jotaro had barely enough time. The second between 7-8 is the ora barrage [1.5 seconds] (it seems like 7-9.5 in the anime because the animators had to fit all the text said in the manga in even though realistically it finishes their time stop just talking.)

At this exact moment, at 8 seconds, Jotaro resumes his own time, waiting until second 9 so Dio thinks he's dead, and to save some of his own time. I know this because he said, "I stopped time at 9 secondes" meaning time for him was resumed somewhere beforehand. Then he stopped time again and sneaks out of the roller. This takes a second. So far Jotaro has used 2 of his 5 seconds. Jotaro uses another second to get behind Dio [3/5 sec] and one to walk closer to him and wait for him to completely stop moving [4/5]. By now it's second 11 as he stated, and he only has 1 more second to punch Dio, and do any "badass talking", which he does, also he concentrated his power into 1 kick to the shins instead of a weak ora barrage, this is a strategic move because the last time he punched his stomach/head and Dio managed to escape. This takes up his last second.
Also if you are wondering why Jotaro has 5 seconds and not 2, it's because when Dio got Joseph's blood, Jotaro got mad. It's known that how long the time stop is depends on the user's stamina. Dio is a vampire, so he has lots of it. Jotaro does not, but when people get mad and adrenaline is flowing it's known that they got stronger. There are many stories of regular people lifting cars to help their family members from being crushed, and running extremely fast when in danger. The increase in stamina I believe is something like this, maybe combined with the fact the Jotaro may have gotten the hang of time stop and was concentrating more. Also for further proof, Jotaro has explicitly stated that at his "prime" (which is now) he could stop time for 5 seconds.

I'm gonna try to clear things up a bit better for those who don't understand how Time Stop in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure works.

It's correct that Jotaro can move in frozen time. And by that logic, DIO can also move in frozen time for 2 seconds. (quoted from previous answers)

This is indeed true to some degree. In a technicality, Dio should be able to move like Jotaro can, but this is not the case. Time Stop can allow for multiple stand users to stop time at the same time or at different intervals if they can move in stopped time.

Jotaro can stop time for 5 seconds and he uses it (refer to time stop) in the 9th second of DIO's time stop, and at this moment, Za Warudo's time stop has been replaced by Star Platinum's and DIO can only move for 2 seconds. He ended up being frozen in the 11th second after Za Warudo was activated, but since it has already been replaced by Star Platinum's (refer to time stop), DIO has used up the 2-second that he can move in frozen time. (quoted from previous answers)

There is, however, a theory that Time Stop can overlap if 2 stands use it, thus leading to the effect of Dio being able to seemingly keep moving after his previous limit was achieved. As stated in the Anime, his peak limit of time stop duration was 11 seconds. Seeing as how Jotaro supposedly stopped time for 5 seconds and stopped it at the 9th second of Dio's Time Stop while moving in stopped time, this evidence can support this theory as the visual and audio effects of Time Stop going into effect is only seen when time is flowing like normal.
As for the road roller, I can kinda see why Dio would want to make sure Jotaro is dead by crushing him with the heaviest thing he could find. Like he said, "You can never be too careful when handling with the Joestars." Where he found the road roller is what stumps me.

If that's true, then can all timestop users with enough stamina move in each other's timestops?

It's correct that Jotaro can move in frozen time. And by that logic, DIO can also move in frozen time for 2 seconds.
Jotaro can stop time for 5 seconds and he uses it (refer to time stop) in the 9th second of DIO's time stop, and at this moment, Za Warudo's time stop has been replaced by Star Platinum's and DIO can only move for 2 seconds. He ended up being frozen in the 11th second after Za Warudo was activated, but since it has already been replaced by Star Platinum's (refer to time stop), DIO has used up the 2-second that he can move in frozen time.
I don't really know how road roller work.

What is the name of the guitar song plays in the beginning of After the Rain episode 2?
There's a guitar song that plays in the beginning of After the Rain episode 2.
What is the name of the song?

Welcome to [anime.se]. Since you mentioned "tab", I assume it's a guitar song, but we need your clarification. Also, if possible, please also mention the timestamp to make it clear which song you mean.

The soundtrack doesn't come out until April 18, so you'll likely have to wait until then to find out. (Or at least until previews from the soundtrack become available, which may happen sooner.)

yes. guitar tab and the song starts at the beginning at 0:06

The name of the song is Saka wo Iku Bus.

I want to go through the story as fast as possible so I can watch Shippuden. I watched some of it when I was a kid but I forgot almost everything. However, episode 26 shows the recap, so will I miss anything important if I start there?

Even if it is a recap, you will miss the development of the story

Not necessarily, although you will miss the character building stuff and some content that may be referenced in the future, so make sure you atleast read the synopsis or summary of the episodes.

Are Giftias more intelligent than humans?
In the Plastic Memories anime, Giftias are shown just like humans, showing the same attitude and behavior but they aren't humans. They are retrieved after their lifespan is complete. So basically, those are basically humanoids.
If they're not humans, then why aren't they shown with some high intelligence just like other humanoids which are currently present on Earth?

Please edit your last sentence. Not sure what you are trying to say there

I don't think so. Giftias, however accurate description of human life they may present, they are still just an imitation of how close an Android can be to a human being.
This question can turn out to be philosophical, as we cannot discern what's the true difference between natural and artificial intelligence.
In my opinion, what Giftias can do is all thanks to programming and limited to processing and storage, that still hasn't surpassed human capabilities.

Then what's the purpose of making giftias?

Well, to supplement the needs of human beings. Just like replicants in Blade Runner

What is the music that plays when Juzo sacrificed himself to save Itachi?
In Naruto Shippuden ep. 456 at around 14:48-15:35, there's a music which plays after Juzo sacrificed himself to save Itachi. The music starts at 5:09 in this YouTube video.

It's ep456 @ 14:48-15:35. I can't find it in OST2 or OST3, unless it's a tiny bit in the middle of another track (which it probably is, if it's even been released at all). I'm starting to think that it's not a released track. I've spent all the time I'm willing to spend today, but I'll see if I can find it tomorrow.

It's 100% Sai's Theme Song. The bit you hear in the Juzo death scene starts at 0:27 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enD0LhHJ8Gw

I think it's Sai's theme song or Danzo's or Konoha's root.

Did Kichikuou Rance really save Alicesoft from bankrupcy?
No doubt Kichikuou Rance is a timeless classic and arguably the best in the Rance series (maybe just not as well known to the western audience as Sengoku Rance). I just wonder whether it's true that Alicesoft was on the verge of bankruptcy at that time, so they threw every remaining idea into Kichikuou Rance, whose sales revived the company.
I remember reading that on some Wiki but I can't seem to find it now, at least not via Google. I just found some forum posts on the topic.
Is there any source (e.g. interview with Alicesoft people) that explains the matter?

I expect you heard this on the Alicesoft wiki.  That link in particular claims that Alicesoft did intentionally try to incorporate everything they could think of about the franchise into the game "just in case" they went bankrupt.  Though I don't see any evidence supporting that claim.

What would happen to the offspring of a Sharingan user and a Byakugan user?
If Sarada and Boruto got married, would their child get both Sharingan and Byakugan together, or would they get a fusion of these two instead?

There is no fusion that we know of between the Byakugan and Sharingan. There have been instances where a mixed Hyuga awakened the Byakugan (Himewari) but none exists for the Sharingan. So it's hard to say but I'd put my money on the child have one or the other but not both.

Tbh, if Boruto and Sarada would get married, they'd have an extremely powerful child.
Sharingan + Byakugan + the great Chakra from Ashura would maybe form a new dojutsu/kekkai genkai.

Is there a plothole in Merlin's character development?
In chapter 249, page 5 of Nanatsu to Naizai, it is said:

 The supreme deity bestowed the child [Merlin] divine protection able to nullify any and all manner of dark curses and commandments. (Emphasis of mine).

However, in chapter 121, page 8 and 9:

 We can see that Merlin is getting turned rock solid by Galand's Commandment.

Those two facts contradict each other. Is that a plothole, or is there a reasonable explanation somewhere?

Okay, so basically thanks to fellow Redditors, that sounds like a little plothole. The main reasons expressed there are:

It is not an immunity, it is an ability to nullify Commandments.
She forgot that she had this protection on her (the blessing happened 3000 years prior to the main story), which explains why she still suffered the effect.

As for "Is it a valid reason to explain something that should have not happened", it is an open question on which everyone might have his opinion.

How is the divine tree still there in episode 467 of Naruto Shippuden?
The divine tree eventually becomes the ten tails, and the ten tails gets split into the tailed beasts. So, the divine tree is basically the tailed beasts.
But, how is the divine tree still there in episode 467 of Naruto Shippuden?

anything else I can help you with?

Episode 467 is a flashback episode, where Asura and others go discover about what the God Tree really is.
So there is no reason why the God Tree shouldn't exist, as this episode happens many thousands of years in the past.

Was the figure Aoba found supposed to be Madoka?
in Gakuen Polizi Chapter 3, Sasami Aoba comes across a girl who's looking through the trash, looking for something she lost which she can't buy again, similar to what happened to Aoba herself the day before, but rather than her badge, it's an anime figure phone strap.

Now, given that the girl's description says that the figure had pink hair and we see what the figure was, it looks very much like Madoka Kaname from Puella Magi Madoka Magica with the bows and style of dress

Was this figure supposed to be Madoka?

Yes it is. Pink hair in bangs, dress similar to Madoka's. It is supposed to be Madoka. You can see example of Madoka keychain which serverd as an inspiration here:
Or actual phone strap here:

As close as the similarity goes, we prefer official statements that the mangaka did use Madoka as an inspiration. Otherwise, this is the same case with this question regarding Violet and Saber (with 1 deleted answer without referencing official statement)

Got it now. Sorry about this, didn't know I have to get official statement. Sorry again.

Is Kaoru the first person who had sex with Ritsuko?
I just finished watching its anime, got curious about its ending, and found out by searching that the last 2 volumes are cramped in the last episode (so they skipped some scene).
I got to know that Ritsuko got a boyfriend when Kaoru was in Tokyo, so Kaoru breaks all his ties with Ritsuko. So I'm wondering if the manga stated if Ritsuko has sex with her boyfriend, because in the anime when Kaoru try to have sex with Ritsuko, she refuses (and that's when Kaoru starts ignoring her).
Is Kaoru the first person who had sex with Ritsuko? Is it ever answered in the manga?

How many LN is covered in one manga vol?
I recently watched season 2 of Konosuba and now I want to carry on the story by reading. I was wondering how many LN vol 1 of the manga covered and if the manga is up to date with the anime. Should I read the light novel or buy the manga?

Currently, the light novel has 4 translated volumes (the fifth is slated for release on April 24th) and the manga has 5 (May 22nd for the sixth). The anime (two seasons) covers the first four volumes of the light novel and the first six of the manga-- so the anime has covered all translated material.
If you want to continue the story immediately, you can search for fan translations of the LN, although most translating groups don't do licensed content. Otherwise, you can wait for vol. 5 of the LN, or wait until fall when vol. 7 of the manga is released.
I would recommended starting over from the beginning with the LN, as the anime does skip some parts and you'll likely have to wait some time before reading new content either way.

Where might I buy/stream "Cyber City Oedo 808"?
Cyber City Oedo 808 happens to be a favourite of mine and I was wondering where I might be able to buy such titles, or what online services might host them for streaming?
The last time I tried was some shifty guy (or girl) selling what looked like a real DVD published but turned out to be terrible copied DVDs on Amazon a long time ago.

Good question. I enjoyed this show a decent amount back when I was younger and it's been out of print for a long time and is hard to find. For what it's worth I think this is the real DVD set; the publisher listed is US Manga Corps, which was the real publisher, whereas the other set I found is published by "DVD, LTD.", which sounds like a front for some guy in his basement burning discs from a VHS recording.

Haven't seen that in ages! Because it's a little older you'll probably have a hard time finding a place to buy or stream it these days. In the US it is indeed distributed by US Manga Corps. However, their parent, Central Park Media, filed for bankruptcy in 2009. Some of their licenses were sold off to other distributors, but this one has expired and has not been picked up again so far as I can find.
I don't think I have my DVD any more to give you a product number but an eBay search might net you someone looking to offload their copy. Of course, be careful where you buy from as with anything on eBay. The usual places I would go to buy (Right Stuf, CDJapan) did not have it.

Streaming unlicensed anime (excluding the relatively tiny amount of public domain content) is still illegal in most of the world, and in any event the sites that do it tend to be fairly shady. As such we have a blanket ban on linking them on this site. I edited out that part of your answer. The rest of your answer is fine though.

What sources did you use to check that?  I've never been able to track down things like that.

What would happen if a duelist didn't follow the instruction on the card?
For example, when an opponent used a Spell card: Card Destruction, the instruction on that spell card says:

Each player discards their entire hand, then draws the same number of cards they discarded.

What would happen to the duelist if they didn't follow the instruction of that card? Would they get disqualified for that, or else?

If you're not playing a game by the rules, then the game is invalid. If it's just a tournament game then presumably they'd be disqualified (and their opponent would win by default). If it was a Shadow Game, who knows (and who would be stupid enough to try)?

The duel disk contains an advance A.I. that is programmed to imply the rules of the game and figure out the rulings of the cards. During the battle city tournament, Joey wanted to summon Giltia the D. Knight, however it didn't appear on the field because it was a level 5 monster and Joey didn't tribute a monsters to summon it. Meaning that unless the conditions are not met, the A.I. will prevent certain cards from being played. This is the earliest example of the duel disk preventing players from making mistakes with their cards during a game.
I hope that my answer was helpful and fun to read. :)

Why doesn't Haibara change her hairstyle?
Akai, Jodie, and Vermouth notice the similarity between Haibara and Sherry and I think this is mainly due to her hairstyle which she didn't change after her body shrank.
Why doesn't she change it as a disguise?

I don't think there's in-universe answer regarding this. The reason would be similar with the answer to the question Why do characters always wear the same clothes?
It's so we can recognize her easily with her older self.
Beside, Aoyama is known for using tons of character. Saving one hairstyle means saving one totally different character. Who know if he will use different hairstyle with Haibara's face for new character that intended to be similar to Haibara for plot reasons. (We know he did for Shinichi and Kid)
Beside she did try to disguise her self several times already. Sometimes she use a cap or Conan's glasses

The strongest character in each Dragon Ball series
Excluding Zeno because he is the king of everything, who is the strongest character in each Dragon Ball series, like Dragon Ball Super, Dragon Ball Universe, Dragon Ball GT, ...?
I'm looking for fact-based answers, like using logical based such as comparing Ki and lot more.

Also this is not an opinion answer it can be answer using logical based such as compare Ki and lot more

The question isn't quite opinion-based IMO as the DB series emphasize the comparison of strength between the different characters. I mean, the whole point of DB is to see X lose to Y, then X trains and beats Y, showing that X is in the end stronger than Y.

Each of the series introduces multiple characters of increasing strengths during different arcs so I'm going to answer the question with the strongest character at the end of each series.

Dragon Ball: The strongest character at the end of Dragon Ball was Goku. Piccolo was the next character along with Kami in the race. However, Piccolo addressed Goku as being the only real obstacle that stood in his way and that Kami had neglected too much on his training.
Reasoning: In Episode 148, we see Piccolo and Goku fight where the both of them seemed to be pretty even in strength until Goku finally rung him out. Also, Picollo had wounded Goku to such an extent that he was in a life or death situation and it is obvious that he would've gotten a Zenkai boost after their fight. The only other fighter in the race is Kami but because of Piccolo considering only Goku to be a threat, I think it is fair to assume that he was the strongest.

Dragon Ball Z: Dragon Ball Z saw the introduction of fusions. So the strongest character including fusions would be Vegito which is a Potara fusion between Goku and Vegeta. The strongest unfused character, on the other hand, would be, Ultimate/Mystic Gohan. The other characters in the race would be Super Buu(Who was even stronger with Gohan, Gotenks absorbed), Goku and Gotenks who weren't as strong.
Reasoning: The final antagonist at the end of Dragon Ball Z was Majin Buu and we see multiple iterations of Majin Buu. We know the SSJ3 transformation is a lot superior to the SSJ2 transformation. Majin Buu in his fat form was slightly weaker than Goku in his SSJ3 form who was initially the strongest at the beginning of the series. Then we see Super Buu(The strongest iteration of Buu), who was about the same level as strength as SSJ3 Gotenks (Who was a fused character). Fusions are more powerful. Gohan in his Ultimate Form, was strong enough to Toy around with Super Buu in episode 267. Gohan was also able to hold his own against a Buu with an absorbed SSJ3 character in the following episodes. Finally, we see Potara fused character Vegito, completely Toy around with a Buu who absorbed the strongest unfused character Ultimate Gohan, making him the strongest.

Dragon Ball GT: "Note: This series isn't canon". However, this series also contained fusions hence the strongest character at the end of the series was SSJ4 Gogeta, which is a fusion between Goku and Vegeta in their Super Saiyan 4 transformations. However, the strongest unfused character would be the last villain they had to face, that was Omega Shenron.
Reasoning: This one is fairly easy. Omega Sheron was the last Antagonist of the series. He was strong enough to push back SSJ4 Goku, Vegeta, Majuub, Gohan, Goten and Trunks.It was only after Goku and Vegeta fused into Gogeta, they managed to completely Toy around with Omega Sheron. The last few episodes of the series between 57-63 would indicate the same.

Dragon Ball Super: So this show saw the introduction of Gods/ Angels and took power scaling to a multiversal level. The strongest character in terms of power is the Grand Priest. "Note: The Omni King doesn't have physical strength as stated by Beerus and Whis. He has the ability to erase anything from existence solely out of will which makes him powerful". If I were to consider only mortal's, the strongest character currently is yet to be determined, however will be soon in the next few days between Goku and Jiren.
Reasoning: Unlike in the previous series, this series introduced many characters stronger than the main characters by huge margins, without actually revealing their power in actual combat. We got introduced to Gods of destruction and Angels. Gods of destruction are technically the strongest fighters in every Universe(With the exception of Jiren and maybe even Goku now as of episode 129).
There also exist Angels who are substantially stronger than the Gods of destructions, to a degree that they could take them out without any effort. One such Angel who is friends with the protagonist is Whis. Whis said to Goku in Episode 55 that even he could barely keep up with the Grand Priest in terms of combat. Note Whis himself at that time is strong enough to knock out Goku and even the God of Destruction of his universe Beerus(Who is substantially stronger than Goku at that time) without even trying.
As for the strongest mortal, After Episode 129 and 130, it has to be Goku in his Fully Mastered Ultra Instinct Form with Jiren not Far behind!

Comments are not for extended discussion; this conversation has been moved to chat.

What is the flashback in episode 14 of Ranma referring to?
There's a flashback that starts at 15:45 on episode 14 of season 1. I've been watching Ranma over the past few days, and I don't think this scene was in a previous episode.
As I recall, the information in the flashback came out as part of a comedy routine. Anime back in those days often had continuity errors like that.
Is this flashback referring to a deleted/modified scene, or is something else going on?

maybe add some info what is the flashback about? I read the manga but never finished the anime

I think you may instead be referencing episode 15, as this episode introduces Shampoo and has a flashback to the Martial Arts Figure Skating battle, which was originally planned to be air before this episode.
Two episodes were cut from the first season, Wikipedia notes the reason as there being a sensitive feeling of the title and theme of the specifically the first of these episodes (The Abduction of P-Chan), due to many kidnappings happening in Japan during that time.
These episodes were later inserted into season 2, which is where the clips come from.

Contact info of Shamoe US, a vendor on Anime Expo
I went to buy anime merchandise at Anime Expo this past summer and I bought it from the these vendors. I went to the Asian American Expo and met them again. I forgot to ask them for their website but they said for the upcoming Anime Expo, they will go by the vendor name Shamoe US as stated here on Anime Expo listing page.
I looked up Shamoe US in the Anime Expo 2017 list and didn't find them so I guess they went by a different name this past summer. They were the vendors in the front who for some reason, had to shut down their vendor area and leave at around the 2nd or 3rd day of Anime Expo.
Are there any contact info of Shamoe US, like their official website?

It's clearly on the list (4911) with a url. AX's interstitial thing butchers their url, but the url redirect to their Chinese Taobao site: https://shop34130744.m.taobao.com/

If Maika and Kaho work in the morning, when do they go to the school?
Maika and Kaho both are highschoolers, but they work in the morning. I assume so since when Maika comes to work, she says "good morning" in most of the episodes. It most likely morning than afternoon.
It's confusing as in the first episode itself, Maika doesn't go to school after work and instead went to an arcade.
Watching the last episode, I'm more or less convinced they work in the morning as Maika and the manager bump into each other at the train station and the time shown on the board was 10:23 AM. So perhaps she goes straight to work after homeroom.
However, in one of the episodes, she did say being held up at homeroom and being late for work. So either Maika was skipping school after doping in for attendance or they have a strange curriculum where they let students do jobs during school hours.
So, when do they go to the school? Don't they have daytime school, or is it evening classes?

Well, good question. I don't remember seeing any kind of "open hours" sign and I think most of the time we don't even know what the actual time is. But if I'm not mistaken there were a lot of students among the customers too, so the café might only be open in the afternoon and on weekends.

That's the thing... when Maika comes to work she says "Good Morning" in most of the episodes. It most likely morning than afternoon.

@Mafuyu-Chama In some workplaces in Japan it's customary to say "Good morning" (おはようございます) when you come to work, regardless of the actual time of the day.

Watching the last episode I'm more or less convinced it's morning as Maika and Manager bump into eachother at the train station and time shown on the board was 10:23 AM. So perhaps she goes straight to work after homeroom. In one of the episodes she did say being held up at homeroom and being late for work. So either Maika was skipping school after doping in for attendance or they have a strange curriculum where they let students do jobs during school hours. ^^'

That particular scene on the train station might have taken place on a weekend. Also, some schools in Japan have homeroom at the end of the school day, so she might have attended all classes and still be late to work because of homeroom.

Yeah, possible. The last scene in last episode is similar to scene in first episode where she bumps into Manager around 10 AM as well. I thought it might be a weekday since she was wearing her school uniform in both scenes.

Are Yamato/Tenzo their actual names, or only code names?
I'm thinking that a certain category of Anbu black ops takes children at birth and trains them in codes, deception and subterfuge so thoroughly that they actually don't name the kids and they just grow up with their identities constantly being changed.
My theory is that Captain Yamato/Tenzo doesn't have one. And neither would Sai if my theory works.
Can anyone confirm this?

Yes, Sai and Yamato are code names. In the anime and I believe manga as well, we even watch both of them get assigned those names by Danzo and Tsunade respectively at around the same time right before they go to meet Naruto for the first time.
http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Sai

Sai was orphaned as a child and recruited into Root, a secret branch of the Anbu under the leadership of Danzō Shimura. There, he was raised and conditioned to have no personality, personal connections, or a name; "Sai" being given to him for the purposes of joining Team Kakashi.

and 3 snippets from http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Yamato

He was soon afterwards found by Danzō Shimura. Having lost all memory of who he was, the boy was taken in by Danzō, where he was recruited into the Anbu's Root division under the codename Kinoe (甲, Kinoe)........Later, Kinoe was re-assigned to Team Ro under Kakashi's command. Joining his new squad, Kinoe was given a warm welcome to his new allies and insisted by Kakashi that he go by his chosen name of "Tenzō", which he happily agreed to......... "Yamato" and "Tenzō" are actually codenames given to him, reflecting his time as Team Kakashi's captain and an Anbu member, respectively; his real name is unknown.

Does Wendy Marvell have a couple? If not, why?
Fairy Tail has ended, but I realize that Wendy doesn't seem to have a relationship with a man as a couple.
I think it's logical because she's too young to get a couple.
Is my reasoning true? Otherwise, is there any reason why she doesn't have a couple?

she doesn't have canon couple. And she's supposed to be 12 years old so I think it's logical that she's just too young

i don't know if i can say that they are couple or not but Wendy has Chelia Blendy as friend

@mirroroftruth they're not a couple I'm afraid

[Potential spoilers for the end of the Fairy Tail manga (chapter 545) below.]
Simply put, Wendy is not shown nor implied to be in a canon romantic relationship at the end of the series.
The reason is simply that the author chose not to officially pair Wendy with anyone. However, we as fans of the series are entirely free to headcanon as we like!

Yes she does.
Her relationship is with Mest (Doranbolt)

Could you add some sources/references/proofs that she is really in a relationship with Mest?

Why doesn't King use Fossilization on Hendrick and The Albion?
In the Capital of the Dead, King uses Chastiefol's Form Three, Fossilization on

 Ban the immortal

and it works effectively.
Why doesn't King use Fossilization on Hendrick and The Albion then?

King tried to use Fossilization on Dawn Roar's member, Hugo in manga chapter 54 (anime season 1, episode 14), but Simon just cut the arm off.
Hendrickson would just cut it off then heal himself with his new Demon powers. The Albion probably would just smash its own arm off before it fully petrifies him, since it spreads so slowly. So, petrification wouldn't be all that effective.
In the Capital of the Dead, it worked on him because he didn't care about being petrified. He was smiling the whole time, remember?

How does the blade of the 3DMG get changed?
In Attack on Titan, the blades of the 3DMG weapon are swapped many times. What button/lever do they use ex; thumb button, trigger 1, trigger 2?

I think I found the way of changing the blades. But I didn't find the use of it while changing the blade. So I can't say that this is true.
The description about 3DMG or it working functions has been disclosed in the anime episode as image in the interval part(mid episode transition part). But the working mechanism of the handle which is used to control almost all the part 3DMG is stated as black box and hasn't been disclosed.

For changing the blade, it is the trigger like thing or Thumb button on the left side of pic above which is similar to the one in the rear side of the revolver pistol which is pulled outside to fire.
As shown in gif below, trigger 1 and trigger 2 are for shooting the arrow or hook. And the lever is used for the similar purpose, like releasing the gas to change direction. Combination of Lever and triggers are used for agility.

One more thing that made me think is, In episode 7, around 15 minute while Mikasa return the broken blade, nothing is shown. She simply moving the handle and detach the blade. If that was the case then fighting with titan would have detached the blade many times.
Here is the YouTube video where she removes the blade.

How does Nunnaly get crippled?
From rewatching the Code Geass series, I understand that Charles zi had used his geass to cause Nunnaly to believe that she was blind.
Did his geass cause her to become a cripple too? When I checked the Wikia, it was not made very clear.

I removed the question about the relation between the manga & the anime because it's not related to the current question (anyway, it's been answered here). If there are multiple unrelated questions, please ask each in a separate post so that the community can focus and answer it better.

No, Nunnally was injured by V.V's attack as indicated in her Character Outline

When her mother was assassinated, Nunnally was paralyzed by bullet wounds on her legs, and went blind due to the geass of her father making her believe that she is blind.

and infact her physical injuries were planned but not by Charles but by V.V

When Lelouch converses with Charles and Marianne in The Ragnarök Connection (episode), it is revealed that Nunnally's injuries were orchestrated by V.V., who set her up to be a witness to the murder of her mother. Her blindness, which was thought to be psychological, was actually the result of Charles' Geass, done to protect her against possible reprisal by V.V. Charles then chose to send them both away, arguing that he was doing so to protect them from V.V., whom he felt he could no longer trust.

Source: Nunnally > Character History > Season 2 (4th Paragraph)
also if you look at all the Geass Abilities none of them caused any outward physical damage to their targets.

Charles could manipulate Memories and seal Nunnally's Eyesight (by what we could suspect would be manipulating her memories thinking she was blind)
Lelouch could control people's minds and make them obey him
Mao could read minds
Rolo could affect people's perception of time making them think time had frozen
C.C could make people fall in love with her

as you can see, all of these could actually be linked to only affecting a person's mind or how they thought and ofcause with the exception of Mao's power all of these powers were temporary as such Charles's Geass couldn't have caused any permanent physical damage to any other part of the body

That's actually not addressed by the show.
We know Lelouch's memories of her murder were fake, a result of his father's geass, and we know that V.V. orchestrated the whole thing, and we also know that her blindness was the effect of Charles' geass.
But what of her being crippled?
There are several possibilities.
Perhaps they really crippled her to make the whole thing look real (a horrifying thought!).
Or perhaps her legs were fine and Charles' geass just made her believe she was cripple, and by the time she broke his geass her legs had atrophied to the point of being useless. But in that case, why did her eyes not atrophy as well?
Alas, right now there's no real answer.
maybe the sequel will bring us the answer. Maybe not.

What are the difference between Koro-sensei and other tentacle creatures?
Koro-sensei and tentacle-having humans (e.g. Itona) have a drastic difference in their bodies: Koro-sensei's body is made up of tentacles wholly, whereas Itona has his human body along with a tentacle.
Are there any differences between the no. of the tentacle cells infused? If yes, it's a fact that even a single tentacle cell can cause death like pain, then how did Koro-sensei survive that much pain?

Bonus question- Tentacles do not consume human body (eg itona) , they  form their separate organs(tentacles). Whereas , in case of Koro sensei, the body is devoured to shape a octopus tentacle made body .Where did his human body go ?

Re: your bonus question, isn't it already answered on your own question?

Thanks senpai , I understood the meaning  And thanks alot , you always help me with my queries @AkiTanaka senpai  , good to have a knowledgeable senpai like you .

Koro's tentacle changed his body because he wants to have a weak huggable body,

The most important point is that Koro-sensei told his tentacles that he doesn't want to be powerful, so they became like they now look.
The other tentacle monsters only wanted power and told the tentacles, so their tentacles became hard and strong.

Why do English dubs have a unique dialect?
Something I noticed while watching a number of English dubs is that characters talk... the best way I can describe it is as a dialect. The scripts and voice acting are done by native (mostly American?) English speakers, but use odd vocabulary and turns of phrase that sound like part of its own dialect. It is difficult to describe, since it sounds nothing like any real English dialect I am familiar with.
For example, the English dub of Devilman on Netflix uses the word "human" (and at one point "mortal") instead of "person" or "man" in English sentences where those would be expected instead. The phrase "go to hell, you mortals!" comes across as distinctly stilted and unnatural to my ear (as a native General American English speaker).
Is this an actual phenomenon or am I imagining it? If it is real, why does it exist?

Welcome to [anime.se]! This might be an interesting phenomenon because not all English dubs are done by native speakers, but without any examples off hand, it's kind of hard to be sure. Consider adding an example as soon as you can.

Yes, an example would help us understand what the "unique dialect" might be. More generally, Japan has multiple accents just as has the USA.  So if the Japanese characters voice different accents, the American voice actors generally try to adapt, such as give a rural character a southern accent.

My guess is that it's similar to how most actors in the UK speak the Queen's English, because it's (relatively) easy to understood, even though only something like 3% of people in the UK speak like that. Voice actors want to be easily understood without sounding too tied to any regional dialect.

I think I have a sense for what OP means, and it's twofold - first, I feel that voice actors for English-dubbed anime tend to put on a particular affectatious manner of speech, kind of like how American actors in the interbellum period tended to speak with the Mid-Atlantic accent. This gives us odd-sounding pronunciation/phonology. But there's also the matter that over time, English translated from anime Japanese has tended to develop its own idioms and idiosyncrasies that would come across as weird to ordinary English speakers. (...)

(...) Think of various lazy calques and set phrases like "it can't be helped" (仕方がない), "I won't acknowledge you" (認めないからね); strange sentence structures to accommodate dramatic pauses that work in SOV sentences but not SVO sentences; things like that. There's something going on here, I'm pretty sure, but some concrete examples would definitely be helpful.

YES! And I want to know, why do they omit Japanese words that were still used in the "English" manga? Like "Nakama" is in the manga but never in dubbed anime, and other words too, but this one comes out of my head.

@senshin: I forgot to put in an example, but I recently watched Devilman on netflix and noticed the odd usage of "human" (at one point "mortal") instead of "person", "people" or "man" in circumstances where they would be expected appear in English. I suspect this is because the translation is largely literal rather than idiomatic, since Japanese would obviously have different baggage associated with its vocabulary (as languages do). It distinctly comes across as stilted and unnatural to me.

“I suspect this is because the translation is largely literal rather than idiomatic…” This is most likely the case since literal translations of anything can be done quite quickly and cheaply, but someone with a good grasp of two languages who can convey the subtlety of idioms are harder to find and cost more to retain.

Adapting the Japanese script of a show for an English dub goes through a few different steps and throughout these steps there is plenty of opportunity for the original script to be altered/adapted/interpreted in a way that results in the dub to be noticeably different from the original, but can also still be far away from ordinary english.
First the script is translated. In language, there are many cases where there is no direct translation or where a word can be interpreted in multiple different ways which could lead to a case like in your question. Also, there are many cultural words and references where even after translation, most english speaking viewers would simply not get it which is why it is necessary to have the translations adapted and re-scripted.
In adaption and re-scripting, writers attempt to make the translation flow naturally when spoken in english while keeping in mind the voice actors and the time it takes them to say it and the time allowed for said lines in the animation itself and also ensuring to mention all the essential plot points. This process allows for plenty of artistic interpretation and I think that is really the answer to your question. This dialect you notice is just how the writers adapted the translated script... an unnatural dialect could be due to artistic choice, an attempt to convey something that doesn't really exist in english or it may even just be bad writing. I would say however, that more often than not the unique dialect you notice is not so much unique, as it is Japanese idioms being kept in the english dub. Some examples are "obento", "shiritori" and adding suffixes like "-chan' which to someone unfamiliar to Japanese things, may seem at first like an odd or unique dialect.
For your specific example I would say it was an artistic choice, but I would also say it is not unnatural, and it even fits well with the theme of the show. The word mortal may not be very common in your everyday conversation but it is very common in dramatic dialogue about gods, angels, demons and the battle between good and evil. There are ample famous books, movies, quotes, poems where humans are called mortals and the setting of those books and movies will usually be similar to that of Devilman. (Edit: If this was not the case, and from your comment it seems as though it isn't, then it would be because of one of the above mentioned reasons. Possibly just bad writing?)

When heard in context, the Devilman examples came off as stilted and unnatural. The word "mortal" was only used once in the season, and it was used in a context where it is more believable the character would say "a*holes" or "monsters." These instances do not sound like they were idioms in the original Japanese. Unless you are being very specific (者 "person, agent noun" vs 人類 "human species"), Japanese (and English, honestly) uses the same vocabulary for both "human" and "person."

if you watch modern movies like the lord of the rings series, they also use odd dialect. it adds ambiance to the film and id say modern dubs are going for the ambiance angle on venues that occur in a different time or story universe.
the settings for most anime are not current day normal earth therefore the language helps create that feel.  think of something like the lord of the rings series, they do not speak normal english because it would ruin the story.
you have to note that anime went through developmental phases and the reasons for odd dubs through those periods seems to have changed.
something from the sixties like astro boy or even the early eighties like techno police has a very stilted english dub and as it appears to have been translated by non native english speakers then read by voice actors (reference?), the translation appears to use phrase-book snippets from sources that were thirty or forty years out of date when the translations were made. On the other hand some american cartoons such as minute mouse and courageous kat also use the same odd phrases and stilted delivery. whether it was for effect or to mimic the up and coming japanese animations i do not know. of relevance is the fact that several japanese films from the sixties and seventies also used the same odd idioms and stilted delivery on their english dubs. some of the martial arts related ones come to mind and have become cult films due to the justaposition with the delivery not matching the action and the almost irresistible urge to repeat the line out loud for comedic effect.
it was a successful formula for that time period and success doesnt always know why it does what it does, it only knows it has to.
these dubs are clearly odd because of how they were translated and i believe the stilted delivery was intentional to match the level of realism in the animation or create interest.  later anime with smoother animation used more natural deliveries although as pointed out, the dialect is not colloquial and that is for effect.
i am familiar with these phrase books. on trips to asia  or hosting visitors ive commented on the odd phrases the locals used trying to speak english and in several cases they produced the phrase books and showed me how it was "correct" even though they did not know it was hilariously outdated.
modern english dubs can be at least as good if not an improvement on the original japanese. i cite FLCL as a prime example. over the top voice acting full of expression and the use of current day phrases. in the case of FLCL the odd dialect has been replaced with odd intonations and japanese idioms which have no direct translation are replaced with english idioms that convey similar levels of emotion.  the goal is still achieved: the story is told with feeling and set and setting are clearly other-world.
note that an anime set in the 'real' world such as 'the graveyard of the fireflies' has a smooth dub with normal dialect. no need to provide the setting of an otherworld venue.
on a side note regarding liberties taken with dubs, sailor moon was the first major work that i know of where the practice of trying to follow the japanese script exactly with a dub became less important than trying to tell a coherent story.  in the case of sailor moon, the story presented to the american audience is much different than the one told in the japanese language release.  the japanese language release detailed her attempts to find a boy and had significant sexual overtones.  her magic girl quests were almost a nuisance hindering her from completing her dating task.
such an emphasis on dating and sexuality for a young teen was deemed inappropriate for the christian-conservative north american audience and the script was amazingly re-written telling an almost entirely different story while using almost all the original video.  thats more than just an odd dialect to create ambiance, its an entirely different script.
id love to see interviews regarding this with some of the voice actors and directors from the sixties and seventies while they are still around. if anyone knows of any, please post some links!

Your answer here is actually pretty scattershot; it's all over the place and it's not clear what you're getting at.  You make an interesting point in an effort to answer the question, but extracting that detail is hard to do with all of the other noise surrounding it.  This isn't exactly a forum, so answering a question in the fashion you did is explicitly discouraged.  I'd encourage you to focus on answering the question as stated, and if you have your own question, you can ask that independently.

What is the real title of a piano song "Another Side 02 - Track 4"?
Was wondering if anyone could find the name of the piano song "Another Side 02 - Track 4".

"Another Side 02" is actually the album title, and with this information, it's quite trivial to find a site with the tracklist, such as VGMDB.

Why are Rin's friends still mad over the fact that he is the son of Satan in season 2?
In season 2 episode 1, Rin's friends are still mad over the fact that he is the son of Satan.
Isn't this already over/resolved in season 1?

Related/duplicate: https://anime.stackexchange.com/q/38795/ - season 2 retcons a lot of the stuff that happened at the end of season 1.

Yes, it is resolved in Season 1 but Season 2 is not a direct continuation of Season 1.
To go into further detail: Season 1 of Blue Exorcist becomes anime original starting from episode 17. There was a lot of backlash from the fans and if they wanted to make a Season 2 it would be impossible to continue from Season 1's end. So, the studio completely ignored all the parts from Season 1 that deviated from the manga in Season 2.

Can a god have more than one blessed vessel?
Lord Yato has Yukine (Sekki) as his blessed vessel aka. his exemplar and Lord Bishamonten has Kazuma as her blessed vessel aka. an exemplar.
Can a god have more than one blessed vessel?

Short answer, yes.
I would say that it is possible for a god to have more than one hafuri, because to be a hafuri only means to attempt to sacrifice one's name for their master. I don't believe there is a limitation on that, however as far as I know there can only be one exemplar/guidepost. Exemplars and blessed vessels are different though (as Takemikazuchi reminds us frequently).
In one arc (warning: manga spoiler!),

 Bishamon makes Nana, who was a legendary blessed vessel imprisoned by heaven, her shinki, so it is possible for a god to have more than one hafuri. However, Nana changed and became a hafuri for her original master and not Bishamon, so there is no definite proof.

Is Naruto an awful parent because Boruto is a brat?
I'm only up to episode 5 in the Boruto anime but the intro instantly implied what I thought and after watching the first few episode it certainly suggests that Boruto is a brat.
Does this point/suggest that Naruto might be too blame for this situation?

This question could receive additional valuable answers in: https://parenting.stackexchange.com/

You can also read the manga, which happens after the events presented in the anime, where you can see a big difference in the relationship between Boruto and Naruto, by no means is Naruto an awful parent, it's clear he tries to figure out how to combine family and "family" (the village) and does his best for that (even in the anime, tho only like, twice up until now). Also harsh father doesn't mean bad father.

Yes, and no. Boruto acts rebellious and resentful towards Naruto as he felt that his father being Hokage took him away from his family.

Initially nonchalant in his duties as a member of Team Konohamaru and is resentful of his father and the office of Hokage because it left him with no time for his family

Eventually Boruto and Naruto do come eye to eye in this aspect

Boruto eventually comes to respect and reconcile with his father and his role as Hokage

However, most of Boruto’s arrogance comes from his lineage and believes he is better than everyone else

For these reasons, Boruto has a high opinion of himself and freely brags about his abilities, but his arrogance has made him put no value in teammates or teamwork, believing he can do anything on his own

Then I will wait for the story to unfold :D

Like Father Like Son, isn't it? The real function of bloodline ;)

No, I wouldn't call Boruto a brat. I'd term him stubborn. Being the son of arguably the greatest shinobi/Hokage, Boruto is always known and accepted as his father's son. He feels that he has no identity for himself apart from being the 'Seventh's Son...!!!' which is why he despises his father. Naruto, who can take down an entire Zetsu army, fails at being a father because he himself had no father (Iruka, Jiraiya, Kakashi were close to father figures) and doesn't know how to acknowledge his child. Boruto despises that fact. He wants to rise above than being his father's son which he mistakes to be better than his father. Not only in terms of nature, but also in strength.
Boruto, like any kid, has a lot of love for his mother and Himawari and cannot stand to see them unhappy. So it's natural for him to feel that his father doesn't have time to spend with his family at important occasions like Himawari's birthday. He doesn't understand what it's to be a Hokage, at least until the later episodes where he remarks that he still hasn't understood his father yet.
In his mindset, he feels that becoming stronger than Naruto would be a great way to get back at Naruto. Knowing that his father has only one person who can match up to his level. He tries to learn from him.

What is this picture about in Mirai Nikki?

In the picture, Yuno and Yukki are creating a world together, but what's this about? I don't know if it is an episode from the anime or from the manga.
I'm still searching for it in the internet but can't find anything about it. I'm so confused.

If you watch the OVA ("Redial", which adapts a 2-chapter manga), it'll make more sense. In brief:

 Yukiteru-2 has been deified in world #3. Yuno-3 is initially unaware that Yukiteru-2 exists, the whole Future Diary thing, etc., but Murmur-2 eventually transports her to Deus-3's metaphysical space where Murmur-2 is imprisoned, whereupon Murmur-2 imbues Yuno-3 with Yuno-2's memories. She then goes and finds the now-deified Yukiteru-2. The OVA ends with Yuno-3 and Yukiteru-2 meeting, but I imagine the implication is that they create a new world together afterwards, as at the end of episode 26.

Er, at least, I think I have all the world numbers right, but it's been a while.

The image is in the anime at the end of the 26th episode after the credits roll. That is because Yukiteru is reunited with Yuno.

What is the BGM where Pilaf starts escaping from the fortress in episode 32?
You can hear it in episode #032, "The Flying Fortress Vanished" at around 16:17. It starts at the scene when Pilaf and his servants start escaping (as they start running out the room). You will notice that the previous track stops and the next one start then
I listened to a lot of playlists on YouTube to find this one with no luck.
I will add a screenshot of when the music starts just in case.

You can find it here (unless i heard bad and its a different song :P)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7bVjtScRtQ
The name of the song is  Koroshi-ya Tao Paipai ("killer tao paipai")

Thanks but no unfortunatly, this is the one ending before the one I want :( if you notice in the episode, the track you mentioned finishes just before they start moving out and then a 2-3 seconds silence and the track in question starts

yeah but it seems to be the same track, at least in the english dub (but as i said i could be wrong :P)
