Can you physically stop someone from commiting suicide?
Once you write suicide as the cause of death, the Death Note possesses victim and they commit suicide e.g. Naiomi Misora.
What would happen if you were to physically prevent that person from killing themselves?
For example, if Light were to physically restrain Naiomi before she hung herself, would the Death Note default to heart attack since the victim is incapable of fulfilling it?

Is there any case , any rule that say , if the victim do not die with the reason written in death note will die in due to heart attack

Either, she starves herself to death, or she dies of a heart attack. Basically if something is not possible/plausible of happening it will just default in a heart attack. Unless having a heart attack is impossible.

Second paragraph from "How to Use: LV"

In the occasion where the cause of death is possible but the situation is not, only the cause of death will take effect for that victim. If both the cause and the situation are impossible, that victim will die of heart attack.

So yes, the victim should have a heart attack if they are unable to kill themselves at the specified time.

What are the drawbacks of being possessed by a Loose Soul?
Some of the girls conquered by Keima have issues that seem to be partially solved once freed from their Loose Soul (like Kanon's invisibility), but while Elsie sometimes ponders if it has any relation to the lost soul being inside the girl's heart, it is not confirmed.
Is there any solid reference in canon material of drawbacks of being possessed by a Loose Soul?

The only consistent drawback of remaining possessed is having your first child being the reincarnation of a devil from old hell. The main goal of a loose soul is to be returned, and since they do this through the first offspring of their host (see below), they wouldn't want to adversely affect said host too drastically.

Aside from that, like you say, certain girls that host a Loose soul have a particular "power", such as Kanon's invisibility, or Tsukiyo's shrinking. Even if not having a certain "power" as such, the Loose Soul can still heavily affect its hosts personality (e.g. Shiori, who has no specific power, but reads each book in the library and lives a secluded existence). These are all unique to a particular girl, and even though they vary greatly in severity, they are still definitely drawbacks that would leave less than desirable living conditions if left unchecked.
Deciding on the most potent drawback depends on the girl, I suppose, but there aren't any positives to take away from being possessed!

I once saw it suggested that Shiori's incredible reading speed was a "power" from the Loose Soul inside her. Don't remember the manga, but in her first appearance in the anime, we see her burning through about two pages per second.

What is the Ape Titan's identity?
This man is shown to be the Beast Titan. Who is he? A member of the royal family, maybe?
Spoilers below for chapter 70 of the manga:

The chapter just came out, we can't figure it out yet. We have to wait until August 10th to get the next chapter, that it will may show us who he is.

Since he came from outside the walls, he probably isn't of royal decent. But since it's the first time anyone ever saw him in human form, your guess would be as good as ours.

For anyone voting as off-topic: this is not off-topic, as per this meta. This type of question is not classified as regarding unannounced future events.

The ape titan took mike's gear in the manga.and he said like It was a great invention by humans to defeat titans right.. so I think he is outsider from the walls..Actually Eren's father is a outsider right? he was found by survey cops(Eren's trainer as I remember)..

As of now, the Beast Titan's identity is a secret known to only Hajime Isayama.
This answer is a heavy spoiler, read at your own risk.

 The only things disclosed about him are:

1. His appearance, in both Titan form and human form.

 In his Titan form, he is an extremely unusual specimen, having a distinct, ape-like appearance. His body structure and facial features are like that of a human's; he walks upright like one also. He stands at a previously unseen 17 meters in height. Dark fur covers the large majority of his body, with the exception of his face, hands, feet, and torso. His arms are also elongated, with long fingers and fully-functional thumbs. The proportions of his upper body are similar to those of the Colossal Titan, possessing a massive chest and small head, as well as unusually slim arms. He is also one of the few Titans known to have the ability of sentient communication with humans, including use of the human language while in Titan form.

 In his human form, he has a well toned body, light white skin, shaggy blonde hair and a matching moustache that transcends down into his beard. He was seen wearing no shirt, loose pants, combat boots, and circular glasses. He has a large scar running down his left arm.

2. His ability to converse with humans in the Titan form, implying intelligence.

3. His characteristics.
 He has the traits of a leader, giving orders and telling other people, sometimes even Titans, what to do. If his orders are not followed, he does not hesitate on using brute force, like when he crushed the head of the Titan that was eating Mike when it disobeyed him or when he beat Reiner to make him and Bertolt focus on his plans instead of saving Annie. Also the Beast Titan seems to be a cruel, sadistic and sarcastic individual.

4. His statistics.

5. His Power to transform humans into Titans and to control them.

He could be an ancient Titan for all we know (derived from the fact that he has next to no knowledge of the human language and advancement in technology).
And it's definite that he isn't anyone from the inside of the walls, or else he would have known about the 3DMG and the language of humans.
What is known is that he isn't Grisha, as Grisha was eaten by Eren, and neither is he Marcel (eaten by Ymir). That leaves Kenny Ackerman and Mr. Smith as candidates. As the Beast Titan is from outside, he isn't Kenny Ackerman, or else he would know about the 3DMG and the human language. That leaves Mr. Smith. He was locked up, beaten and thrown in a far off town by the MP. He could be the Beast Titan, but the problem is that since he lived inside the walls, he knew about the human language, thus ruling out the possibility that he's the Beast Titan, even though both look strikingly similar, unless he somehow survived and suffered from a memory loss. Since he (Beast Titan) is so keen on getting the Coordinate, it can be said that he might be somehow related to the royal family.
His identity has been kept as a secret and it will be surprising to know about it.

EDIT : His name has been revealed. It's

 Zeke

And if you're asking whether he is a member of the royal family

 Technically, yes. Because he is son of Dina Fritz.

The ape titan is highly unlikely to be Grisha. The titan didn't really know what the 3 Dimensional Maneuver Gear was, whereas Grisha knew very fondly of them. To add on to that, he wasn't aware that he and humans spoke the same language.

How old is Naruto throughout the show's timeline?
I am curious about Naruto's aging through the series from Naruto to the beginning of Naruto Shippuden. From what I've gathered Naruto's birthday is in October.
Under the assumption that he was 12 at the start of the series. I think it went something like the following :

Age 13 during the Chunin Exams
Age 14 when Sasuke left the leaf
Age 16 when came back from training with Jiraya

Can someone confirm if this is correct?

Naruto's birthday was mentioned to be the 10th of October

From the Naruto wiki (Part II as in Shippuden):
Age   Part I: 12-13
      Part II: 15-17

So by the end of the manga/anime, he's 17 before the larger timeskip.
Also, there was a good answer by Mike Ante on another related question.

I believe he 'celebrates' his 17th birthday during the 4th Shinobi War (not sure if it was 17 but he definitely had his birthday while fighting Obito since it was specifically mentioned)

he is 11-12-13 during the
the first part of naruto after two years time skip he was 15 and then during the five kage summit he was 16 than war arc he turned 17 and then in the last movie of naruto he was 18 or 19 years old

Not correct, the time skip was 3 years long so naruto was 13 at the end of naruto, cause during the pain arc Minato asks him how old he is and he answers 16 and during the war arc at the end when he says goodbye to his dad and the other kage, it's actually his birthday and he turned 17.

Can you include sources to support your answer?

In the Boruto manga/anime he is around 32 to 35 years old. If he had Boruto at the age of 21 like most people would agree with, he would be 33 or 34 years old. He became hokage at the age of 24 and Boruto remembered that day as shown in one of the episodes. But, in the original Naruto anime he was 12 or 13 the entire show cause it never showed any sign of a time skip. So it obviously went through in a few months inside of the show. After the time skip when he arrived back with Jiraiya, he was 15 but turned 16 shortly as shown when he met his dad. He turns 17 in the Fourth Great Ninja War. In The Last, Naruto was 18 and turned 19 in a few days in this movie yet there was another time skip. Hinata was pregnant with Boruto, so Naruto was 20 or 21.

What happens to the pregnant woman's baby in the first episode of Death Parade?
In the first episode of Death Parade, after the first game, the woman's soul is voided, and the man gets reincarnated.

During the darts game, the woman tells the man that she is pregnant. Does this mean that the baby's soul is also voided? This would be weird knowing that the baby probably was reincarnated not so long ago and had no impact on what his or her mother would do.

I imagine that in the Death Parade universe this happens often enough to have a specific arbiter rule about it. Any details of such a rule haven't been revealed yet however.
It is the woman and the man's souls that are being judged in that trial, so I presume the baby either

Has a separate case for review, possibly not present in the woman's body in body/soul during the woman's trial
Is not eligible for trial due to not having enough life experience.

The Rebirth/Void concept that Death Parade uses is based on Buddhist concepts, which means that an opinion-based answer could be highly debatable as it would be based on theological concepts such as the possibility of humans being born malicious, or becoming malicious through life's influence.
References if you want to decide by yourself:
Reincarnation: The Process of Rebirth

On a side note, that would have been a very strange episode if it was a separate trial

What is the size of the crater left by the explosion in episode 26?
In episode 26 of the anime, Silver/Ooguro/Tatsuya annihilated the Chinese fleet in one shot with Material Burst. No wonder his aunt had his ability locked...
What is the size of that crater? It was shown in satellite images to have eaten a piece of the coastline! Estimate from a screenshot if no source exists.
Since it was at the sea, of course the crater is filled with.... duh, seawater.
So by the images of episode 26, how big was the blast Ooguro caused?

It is detonated on the sea, so I don't think there is going to be any crater.

I'me pretty sure any kind of impact like that would leave a crater.

Ok, he created a gulf, bay, you name it. Updated the question.

@nhahtdh I rolled back your edit, because the blast of that spell is not a nuclear (since everyone assumes nuclear is also radioactive) explosion. Tatsuya used relativistic/quantic physics to generate energy, ok. But to leave it as nuclear in the title would be misleading. Even in the novels Japan is cleared of the international backlash of doing that stunt exactly because the inspectors did not find evidence of nuclear reactions (i.e. fallout)

The easiest solution to this would be if the light novels gave us a concise answer, but of course, nothing in life is that easy.
But while the light novels don't give us an accurate size of the crater, they do give us the equivalent energy - 20 megatons (20,000 kilotons) of TNT:

Repeating Kazama's order, Tatsuya pulled the trigger on Third Eye.From within Tsushima Base, across the strait, directly into Zhènhai
Naval Port. Tatsuya's magic transformed 1 kg of matter directly into energy.
In accordance with Einstein's Formula, the heat energy equated to
approximately 20,000,000 tons of TNT.
– Volume 7 - Yokohoma Disturbance II, Chapter 13

Now using this, we can approximately calculate a blast radius.
To get my results, I used this simulation here - http://nuclearsecrecy.com/nukemap/. First off, I ran a couple of tests by plugging in the data from real-life detonations to see how accurate it was:

Test 1: Ivy Mike Test - Actual crater diameter: 1900m Result from simulation: 1680m - 88% accurate

Test 2: Castle Bravo Test - Actual crater diameter: 2000m Result from simulation: 1900m - 95% accurate

Test 3: Sedan Test - Actual crater diameter: 390m Result from simulation: 360m - 92% accurate

Given this information, we can assume that the simulation is roughly 90% accurate, giving an error margin of ±10%.
Setting the yield as 20,000 kilotons, with an airburst of 17m (the beam height of a typical modern Chinese ship, or the height at which the flag would be flying) leaves us with a result of a crater diameter of 2100m, which, accounting for error, could be anywhere between 1890m and 2310m.
As for the blast itself, the simulation lists the fireball as having a diameter of 6400m, which following the previous error margins could be between 5760m and 7040m. These and other statistics are all from the simulation and are viewable upon following this link.
In the picture below, the blast is still only just beginning, and if we assume the ships in the shot are the same length as a typical modern Chinese ship (~155m), these numbers seem definitely feasible.

TL;DR: The crater would be approximately 2.1km across.
Granted, this simulation is for a nuclear blast and not a mass of pure energy, but since the energy released is the same, the results should be more or less equivalent.

What is the origin of the bubble during sleep trope?
A common trope across various anime and manga is the snot bubble trope. I've put an example below:

I can gather what it signifies from the TV Tropes description, but what's the origin of this? Does anybody know where it was first used, or where the inspiration came from?

Could it come from little babies who have running noses all the time and when they fall asleep after a tiring day of running around it might create snot bubbles...

The origin is, perhaps surprisingly, real life! This does occur among children in Japan and in other countries as well.

It looks significantly less appealing in real life D:

+1. It looks like I guess right in the end xp. Although I did not want to be right, this is disgusting lol.

Needs a disclaimer for disturbing content.

Why wasn't Jiraya able to use Sage mode completely?
As shown in Shippuden, Fukasaku, one of the two Great Sage Toads says that Naruto has surpassed his master.
Jiraiya was not able to completely enter into sage mode, and as such only had a partial toad-like appearance.
This is what I read from Naruto Wiki:

Jiraiya didn't like Sage Mode because it gave him a more toad-like appearance, with longer marks along the sides of his face, a goatee, a larger nose with warts, webbed hands and feet and sharp teeth, all of which made him unappealing to girls. This appearance is due to Jiraiya not having complete mastery over the technique.

But I don't think this was the only reason for not mastering such a great technique.
Even though he was one of the great legendary Sannin, why was he unable to master the Sage mode completely? Any reason other than the above.

Two toads are for Jiraya to remain in sage mode continuously and gather natural energy not because he had toad like appearance

for the title question answer is he was not able to master it,but you description doesn't seem to ask the same question, try to edit and add the question you want to ask

Sorry, but it doesn't mean because he is a Legendary Sannin he had to be able to do that. There are some skills about chakra gathering that he couldn't fully undestand as Naruto did. This question it's answered by you
"This appearance is due to Jiraiya not having complete mastery over the technique."

He is a great ninja, but it doesn't mean he have to master every single jutsu perfectly. Besides, him not mastering Sage technique is very likely because Kishimoto-sensei wanted to show that Naruto has passed him. If he mastered sage tech, it would be hard to show that Naruto has passed him.

The title great Legendary Sannin does not mean theat he was the master of all types of techniques. He has sealing jutsus, summonings, body activation, combination techniques and is a pretty darn awesome Ninja. He did master the Sage techniques, he just couldn't perfect it.
Naruto surpasses Jiraiya as a Sage because of the nature of Sage chakra. It has to be in balance with the other two types of chakra in you. The balance was slightly tending towards Senjutsu chakra for Jiraiya and hence the toad like appearance, doesn't mean he didn't master how to use it.
Naruto mastered it too, but with the balance being perfect. Also, his clone training technique gave him 4 times more practice [exponentially more] than what Jiraiya was able to spare during his missions and travels. So it is possible that's a reason he was able to perfect it. Surpassing his master meant the perfect balance of chakra without any frog features according to sage Fukasaku.
They both were masters of Senjutsu, as they were able to use it without becoming a toad, were able to perform Kawazu kumite [excuse me if that's a typo] and giant rasengans.
HTH.

Jiraiya didn't master Sage Mode by plot from Kishi. I mean Sage jutsu is just another technique a bright ninja can master even without large chakra reserves (Minato too had toad sage mode)
In my opinion Naruto never surpassed Jiraiya. I mean, we all know the dynamics of kage bunshin upon which naruto relied a lot during his sage training, and resengan training. The advantage naruto had was his mother's bloodline (Uzumaki) which genetically gave him access to vast chakra reserves. vast chakra reserves are needed to be a jinchuuriki( see conversation between 8-tails and his old jinchuuriki, see conversation between 8 tails and the jinchuuriki that killer-bee succeeded, see conversation between killer-bee and naruto in the tailed beast transformation training arc) with little danger since bijuu chakra has the tendency of 'possesing' the jinchuuriki.

He was simply incapable of Balancing his Sage Chakra with Physical and Spiritual Energy, That's why he's considered an Imperfect Sage Mode User
Naruto on the other hand perfected it because he's capable of balancing 3 Energies

Can Tatsuya use Material Burst in the tactical/strategic scale without the Third Eye CAD?
The "Third Eye" CAD is treated security-wise like a nuclear detonator, and custom made by third division of FLT exactly for him use Material Burst effectively.
Is it feasible for him to cast it at that scale/range without it?

Yes, he can maintain strategic class levels of range and potency, even without the Third Eye.

There are two parts to strategic level magic - range, and strength.
Tatsuya can successfully cast Decomposition on objects with the size and mass of Armoured Personnel Carriers (APC's), and material burst is merely an differentiation of that (the conversion of matter to energy, rather than base elements). A flag of 1kg is the cause of the destruction in Zhènhai Naval Port, so while he would find no trouble in casting Material Burst on something like a car, the destruction caused would be far greater.
Being near the activation point of such a cast would be, as mentioned in Saphiric's answer, suicide. But, this is just hypothetical - Tatsuya has the potential to cast that kind of magic if he wanted to, and that's all that matters for the question.
So his scale, naturally, is still of strategic class even without the Third Eye.

Range is a more awkward matter.
While it's more difficult for him to activate magic on a strategic scale without the Third Eye CAD - mostly due to the necessity of finding a suitable target - it is still possible for him.
It's important to remember that magic isn't bound to the physical plane, instead using a separate dimension where trivialities like distance aren't issues. Since magic is simply a phenomenon rewriting the data of a specific Eidos (information body) that exists in the real world, as long an information body's coordinates are known, it can be targeted.
Only a very small number of spells (such as Gram Demolition) physically travel through the real world, and therefore only those spells are restricted by physical distance.
Most magicians can't perceive a target more than several hundred meters away, simply due to the limits of the human body.
But, this is Tatsuya. With his Elemental Sight, he can perceive things in the information dimension, or the dimension of magic, where distance is no issue:

This was not looking down from a bird’s eye view, he was looking at things from the point of view of the information dimension. It was not an elliptical sphere around the double focal points, it had nothing to do with physical distance[...]
Volume 10 - Visitor II, Chapter 12

Even so, he can't just pick a random target to cast Material Burst on - he has to know the coordinates of the Eidos. This is the main purpose of Third Eye, to pick targets at huge physical distances, so Tatsuya can easily manipulate them in the information dimension.
However, this isn't the only way he can find a target. If he picks out an information body he can perceive at close range and follow it as it travels, he can cast magic on it at any distance:

By his own hands, using the magic he alone could wield, he had decomposed then
  rebuilt the bullets. However far away they flew, he would not lose sight of their information structure.
Volume 8 - Reminiscence,Chapter 16

As proof of this, the first time Tatsuya uses Material Burst is without any sort of CAD, and he casts it at a target 20km away, one of the aforementioned bullets:

Tatsuya stretched out his right hand towards the west, and forcibly unclenched his palm.
The bullet broke down into energy.
In that moment, the mass conversion magic ‘Material Burst’ was used in anger for the first time.
Volume 8 - Reminiscence,Chapter 16

Granted, it's not quite as far as the distance he casts it in Episode 26 of the anime, but it's still a considerable distance that's far beyond the realm of normal human perception. Furthermore, he states that he could cast it at a greater range, but in this instance, he is limited by the range of the sniper rifle's bullets he uses as a medium to cast Material Burst on:

Sanada’s murmur was drowned out by the boom of the sniper rifle.
Tatsuya’s eyes seemed to chase that supersonic bullet which should never have been seen.
At length he shook his head, disappointed.
"……It’s no good. It could only reach 20 km."
Volume 8 - Reminiscence, Chapter 16

So although practically very difficult to recreate without proper planning and requirements, it is theoretically possible in the right circumstances, meaning his range too, is still that of strategic class without Third Eye.

In conclusion, yes, Tatsuya can cast Material Burst unassisted at a range and scale similar to that which he achieves in Episode 26 with the Third Eye, but he would require a very specific set of circumstances, and would need to rely solely on Elemental Sight for targeting. That's the main reason for that CAD - to make Material Burst far more practical to cast.
With or without Third Eye, he's still very much "Strategic Class"

In short, he can do it at the same scale, but not the same range.
He can do it at the same scale, however it would be suicide. Magic, according to the novels, requires setting a target to overwrite its current state, which breaks down to being able to see the object or have acute awareness of its existence and state. Since Material Burst uses Einsteins formula to convert matter to energy, even the smallest thing would set off a massive explosion. Knowing that, it is then safe to assume that without Third Eye, activating Material Burst on pretty much anything within the range of naked eye would cause him to be caught in the ensuing inferno.
Third Eye is not required to activate Material Burst, it is essentially a tool that allows him to use Material Burst at a strategic scale without annihilating himself in the process. Third Eye connects to a satellite that then relays images to Third Eye, allowing Tatsuya to then activate his magic.
The information here is from reading the fan translation on Baka Tsuki, which does better at explaining things than the anime.

As an afterthought, even activating Material Burst by connecting to the information dimension would still be highly risky, but with a small enough object he could still activate it as long as he calculated the force of the explosion.  However it would be nowhere near the scale he can achieve by using Third Eye.

The question is "Can he perform a long range execution of Material Burst without the device"? You only say "He can do it at short range, but will kill himself"

Edited my answer to better explicitly answer the question without the unnecessary details unless they are wanted.  Sorry about that.

I get the feeling that CAD are all backups for him, but I am gonna develop it on another question. Welcome to anime.se, @Saphiric

I would like to add on to the previous answers and make a small correction about the purpose of Third Eye.
The purpose of Third Eye is pinpoint targetting. It does not allow Tatsuya to cast at a greater range, in many sense. Rather, it allows Tatsuya to target a small object accurately from a long distance away. Presumably, Tatsuya can, without the aid of Third Eye, target the sun (and probably fail because the Sun is too big for decomposition).
Sanada, in his evaluation of Third Eye, noted how it was able to target a drop of water many miles away.
Unfortunately, much of the implications of magic and how sight works is not well understood, so the following is just conjecture.
However, it is plausible that he could set a random, far away object as his target. However, he would not be able to know exactly where is the thing he has targeted, or whether or not it actually is far away.

I don't think he could target a "random, far away object" without first perceiving it through the information dimension. I don't know if that is what you meant, but nice answer btw

I agree with what you've said. However, I think he is able to perceive a random, far away object with elemental sight. He won't be able to choose what he is perceiving though.
This is just my conjecture. We know that Tatsuya can use elemental sight to perceive a space 1200 m away during the sniper incident. Magic is not supposed to depend on physical distances, so I am not sure what is preventing him from perceiving a random spot in space with elemental sight.
Of course, the specifics of magic are not completely well explained, so who knows.

Tatsuya did use material burst without the Third Eye.
That scene at the very start of the first episode, was shortly after Tatsuya used Regrowth on Miyuki and co. They even beat his ass for killing people who surrendered or were retreating after he was told to not do so prior. In that case, without the third eye. Material Burst was theoretical, just like regrowth was when he used it for the first time to save Miyuki's life. When he reassembles an object or person he gains an intimate knowledge of it and it's location. During that first battle, he was attempting to disassemble enemy shells from the warships and use them as a way to use Material Burst. Because the sniper rifle they had on hand wasn't enough to give him the correct accuracy and originally he wanted to use the bullets of said gun. Tatsuya also made mention that if he wanted to, he could make his own Third Eye and even improve upon it.

Why can't Devil Fruit users swim?
I've only seen bits and pieces of One Piece, but I know that Devil Fruit users (people who have eaten a Devil Fruit) can't swim. I never understood why, though. How does this work? It doesn't seem to give arm or leg disabilities, so what would keep them from being able to swim?

It is said that the Devil Fruits are the fruits of Sea Devil, so even if most of them provide a great power, they're cursed. Quoting One Piece's wiki:

The sea rejects the new Devil Fruit user and they become helpless
  while submerged in water

Also, Oda said in SBS that Devil Fruit users are vulnerable to all types of water, not just salt/sea water. Basically any type of "standing" water (ocean, lakes, rivers, etc) will affect them, while "moving" water (rain, waves, etc) won't.
Overall, I'm not saying the problem is the sea or something inside the users, what I'm saying is that it's both. And as to why users are affected by Seastone/Sea-Prism Stone/Kairoseki, as stated by Smoker:

It gives off a wavelength that is the same as the sea itself

Basically it's a mini solid piece of the sea so that's why Devil Fruit users are affected by that as well...

Is it only when submerged in sea/salt water or also in fresh water? I mean you mention the 'Sea' devil. Secondly just touching a 'Sea prism' stone has the exact same effect which leads me to believe it's something in the users, not the sea. Maybe their bodies (involuntarily) reject the sea?

Is it explained why the sea rejects them, beyond a generic explanation of a curse?

In my idea, I think it's because the Devil Fruits are the body of the sea devil. So, if we ate one, we can't swim because we have the power of the seas. It's like, we are stealing their powers so they will make us can't swim. That's why people who ate Devil Fruit can't swim.
It's the same as kairoseki (sea stone). Kairoseki is like sea ice but won't melt, and that's why Devil Fruit users can't swim.

To add up to the other answer:
"A person who has devil fruit power experiences a lack of energy when gets into the water!" That means, the user lacks minimum energy to show body movements, otherwise, they could swim.
Without body movement, the person starts sinking down.
It's also evident that a person doesn't lose power immediately but constantly. The longer he stays in the water, the more he'll become helpless.
The Devil Fruit side effects section in the wiki is worth reading:
http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Devil_Fruit

My opinion is that because water as a weakness is commonly seen as a demon/devil weakness, hence the name Devil Fruit. And the user's soul is the polar opposite of the sea, which in turn would create a struggle between the 2. And water ultimately wins seeing as how Devil Fruits are rumored to be a part of the sea, causing its wielder to constantly be drained of their power, or in cases of sea stone, causes their power to drain just enough so that they can't use their power.
This is purely speculation, but it is also a very likely theory all things considered.

Maybe it's because the Devil Fruits have some sort of origin with the Fishmen. I mean, Fishmen are already ten times stronger than a normal human, so maybe someone in the past thought that such power would be too dangerous if it fell into the hands of Fishmen. That's why those who eat it couldn't swim.
Maybe it started out as a feud in the past of the "ancient weapons"- the objects capable of destroying the world. Look at "Noah", the big ship at Fishman island. Maybe it played a part in the Devil Fruits. Or maybe it's connected to the Adam Wood and Eve Tree something which Franky stated.
This is just a guess though.

Weren't the 1st and 2nd Hokage sealed forever?
In recent chapters, all the Hokages that have passed away have been summoned by Orochimaru with Edo Tensei.
Didn't the Third Hokage, during his fight with Orochimaru, in which Orochimaru used Edo Tensei to summon the 1st and 2nd, seal both Kage away in some way, so that they could never be summoned again?

Does this answer your question? How could the four Hokage be reanimated by Orochimaru?

All four Hokage had been sealed with the Shiki Fuujin:

As you said, the First and Second Hokage had been sealed by the Third, in his fight against Orochimaru.
On that same fight, the Third sealed himself, along with the First and Second.
The Fourth sealed himself when he sealed the Kyuubi inside Naruto.

Those whose souls were sealed by the Shiki Fuujin cannot be summoned or reincarnated.
However, as we discovered in chapter 618, the seal can be broken by summoning the Shinigami while using a Shinigami mask that was stored in the Uzumaki Clan's Mask Storage Temple.

Ah! I totally forgot about that. That perfectly explains what would otherwise have been a plot hole. Thank you! :-D

Why didn't the Titans wipe out humanity yet?
It seems like the Titans have a really huge advantage like the colossal, armored, female Titan. They could probably charge at Wall Sina instantly, take it down and wipe out humanity. The female Titan spared Armin's life a few times, when she could take him out in seconds.
So it seems the Titans are capable of killing all the humans completely but they don't. Why is that so?

Likely related: What is the motive behind the Titan Shifters' actions?

Read the manga and you'll know.

As the manga progressing, manga itself is answering your question, if you really want to know the answer, read manga. Reading manga will be good then getting spoiled by reading answer.

Levi. That's why :)

This has no answer yet, and probably will not for a while. The author has stated the publication will run for at least another three years from the date of the linked article (September 2014).
Below is what has been revealed so far:

 The reason seems to be that the Coordinate, which has the power to control Titans, is "lost".  Mindless titans can't be controlled without it.

 It could be said that Colossal Titan only emerged recently to take down the wall since a Titan of that size and power has never been available before.

 Titans are actually used to enslave/control the population (since the royal family seemed to have had the Coordinate power for several generations). They never attempted to use it against the "enemy" before Eren took control of it, which is odd. Bertolt, Reiner, Annie could actually be working for the king, since the royal family "lost" the Coordinate to Eren's father.

I edited the number of years from seven to three, since I can't find any source stating that the publication will run for 7 years.

At this stage, even the mangaka and editors probably don't know exactly how long it will take to wrap the story up. Most likely, it will be determined by (1) how long it takes for the writer to develop all his desired themes and plotlines and/or, most importantly (2) the continued level of popularity. If it stays as popular as it is now, the series could last as long as One Piece! If people start to tire, then editorial decree will mandate winding things up quickly!

The exact answer has not been revealed, but some conclusion can be drawn from different episodes and chapters of anime and manga.
The prelude of several episodes of Attack on Titan stated that:

Over a hundred years ago, humanity suddenly found itself faced with a new predator. They were more powerful than humans. Humanity was immediately pushed to the brink of extinction. The survivors built three walls: Maria, Rose, and Sina.

From the anime and manga:

 The Female Titan spared Armin's life several times.
The walls were built with the exoskeletons of titans.
Colossal Titan, Armored Titan, Female Titan (i.e. Bertolt Hoover, Reiner Braun, Annie Leonhart respectively) and other Titan Shifters actually lived among humans.
Ymir turned into titan and protected her friends from other titans.
Rich people and the top brass who mainly lived inside Wall Sina knew a lot about the titans, the walls and the titan inside the walls.
The titans who broke through the wall and led other titans inside were mainly the Colossal Titan and Armored Titan, and their objective was to search for the mysterious power known as the "Coordinate".

These points lead me to conclude that their main intention is not to destroy humanity, but to find the Coordinate ability for which they may destroy humanity. The relation of the Titan Shifters with human, and their willingness to sacrifice their lives for their friends shows that their main intention was not to destroy humanity. And humans are not as weak as they seem to be; titans need to make some effort to destroy all humans, and those titans with brain know that.

but they could easily found the basement of Jager in 5 years if they searched the town. and if they wanted eren they could have easily got him. so they are not so quick about searching the coordinate too for some reason

Seems you are not caught up in the manga :(

@Quikstryke I am up to date with manga.

The Titans can't wipe out the human race by themselves. They couldn't break through the wall for over 100 years, and still required the help of the intelligent Titan Shifter to break through the wall at all.
I think certain Titan Shifters are on a kind of a mission — maybe they want to show the human race that they can't sit around and do nothing? Or perhaps they have an even bigger goal?
I read somewhere (sadly I can't remember where) that the Titans stopped their mission of attacking because they are afraid of the new Titan Eren. He could be a problem if he finds out the truth behind the Titans.

The technical term for "Human Titan" is Titan Shifter btw ;) I'm not sure what you mean with "the truth behind the Titans". Are you talking about the titans in the wall, about the origin of the titans, about the first king's mission, ...? If you specify a bit more, I might be able to tell you where it was mentioned.

@PeterRaeves "the truth behind the titans" means the true about the normal one, why do they eat human even if they don't need to eat... what do they need to eat... and more
Based on my knowledge which is just about the anime, i think it was after the second attack. On the Wall Rose. Where Eren had his first transformation.

In chapter 18, Ilse did mention what you mentioned and later there were the experiments, which probably mention some of the truth about titans as well. I can't seem to find where it is mentioned that the titans are afraid of Eren though. Afair, it also doesn't stroke with future events, so not sure whether that was part of the reason. I should re-read the manga one of these days

@PeterRaeves probably it's also a slight difference between the manga and the anime. i will have a look too, if i found something. maybe tomorrow, not today.

How old was Hinata when she had her children?
How old were Naruto and Hinata when they had Bolt and later Himawari?
I have just been puzzled by the question and couldn't come to an answer.

related http://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/14910/what-is-the-estimated-age-of-naruto-when-he-became-hokage

Chapter 700 of the manga takes place 15 years after the 4th SWW. During the 4th SWW, Naruto is 17 and Hinata is 16.
So at present, they're 32 and 31 respectively.
Boruto's age is revealed to be 12. There's a confirmed two year age difference between Himawari and Boruto. Therefore Hima is 10 years old.
Since Hinata is 31 years old currently. Therefore, she was 19 when she had Boruto and 21 when she had Himawari.

They would be in their 30's with Naruto at 31-32 and Hinata at 29-30.
At the end of the war, they were 17 and 16. Skip two years to the last movie and they are 19-20 and 18-19. Twelve more years where Boruto is 12, that would make them 32 for Naruto and 30 for Hinata.

Who are the ninjas Team 7 is fighting with in Naruto Shippuden Ending 32?
In the Naruto Shippuden Ending 32, Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi and Sakura are fighting against some masked bad guys.

Who are those people?

As I said in the comments, I have a theory about the identity of these bad guys.
Because this was an ending of a canon episode, I would say they didn't exist in the Naruto universe. But if we take a closer look they are wearing Konoha's clothes and ANBU's mask. So these bad guys, I think they are ANBU's  ninjas (even though some times they don't wear these outfits) who are "chasing" Sasuke.
Also I noticed that these masks are similar to the mask that Orochimaru found in the Uzumaki Clan's Mask Storage Temple.
Anyone with more information, please don't hesitate to change this post. :)

Are all the Initiators/Cursed Children 10 years old? Were there none born after that?
In Black Bullet, the main Initiators are all 10 years old girls. But there are several taller and smaller girls shown in the background.
Are all the Cursed Children 10 years old, or are there others born after that?
Does the contamination of mothers through the mouth still happen?
Do the Light Novels explain this phenomena in more depth than the anime?

It seems to be several questions, but the point is the same. Just different phrasing.

According to the Black Bullet Wiki, the births of the Cursed Children are listed as a single year - 2021 - with Enju and Satomi pairing up in 2030.
So I guess the answer is yes, they're all 10 years old +/- 11 months.
The Initiator page also claims that they're all 10 year-old girls.

No, all Cursed Children are not 10 years old, it is most likely that Cursed Children are still being born.
In the light novel the girl who opens the manhole cover for Rentaro in the Outer District is stated to look around the age of 7

She was probably around seven years old, and she peered at Rentaro with a puzzled look on her face. Her eyes glowed red.

While not conclusive, the following passage also seem to imply that Cursed Children are still being born, which is probably part of the reason the new Gastrea Law is  being proposed

Just a short while ago, it was normal for Cursed Children to be delivered in secret alongside a river, then killed before they could even open their eyes

While "a short while ago" is hard to pin down I doubt it only refers to 10 years ago. This might also be the reason why we see so few younger cursed children, most are drowned shortly after birth. 10 years ago parents didn't know that their children would be born as Cursed Children but in more recent years it is probably expected that a large amount of children would be born that way which probably explain why most parents kill their children before they can even open their eyes.
Edit:
The second light novel again confirms the fact that Cursed Children are not all 10 years old but are in fact also younger

Born at almost the same time as the Great Gastrea War ten years ago, the Cursed Children were ten years old or younger.

Now, the Cursed Children wiki page states that Matsuzaki states that all Cursed Children are 10-years old however I cannot find this statement in either the light novel or the anime so I would take it with a pinch of salt.

How did Jiraiya find out Tsunade's breast size?
Jiraiya stated that Tsunade's oppai size was 106cm.
From Tsunade article:

Despite being known as flat-chested in her childhood, she now has a rather large bust; 106 centimetres in circumference, according to Jiraiya.

From Jiraiya article:

when caught spying on Tsunade in his younger years, she proceeded to break both of his arms, six of his ribs, and ruptured a number of organs as punishment.

Considering the amount of fear and respect Jiraiya then developed towards her, how did he know the measurement of the adult Tsunade?
Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ny7Fni193Jk
(I'm really sorry about the quality of the video)
Below is the image from the corresponding scene in the manga (chapter 406, page 9):

Maybe he just got more experience estimating bust size through clothing?

Sexy no Jutsu sounds reasonable to get the actual size.

It's possible he calculated it based on where she was, the position of the sun, the shade they created.

they are team mates a few decades . . .

@NamikazeSheena that maybe so. But I dont see how that explains the method Jiraiya used to find how the "stuff" is

Maybe Jiraiya transformed into Tsunade using a transformation technique and found the size using traditional measures by measuring himself(!).
He may have used Sexy Technique.

According to wiki Jiraya never used Sexy technique (see in Jutsu column).

Just because he is never show to and never admits to using it does not mean it was used by him. He definitly prefers the real thing though, so he would not want to transform without a good reason (like finding the numbers). the WIki can only use stuff the manga and other major sources provide. for Kakashi, "he is reputed to have copied over a thousand jutsu"  Straight from the wiki, Though it only lists about 40 Jutsu, the ones he actually used in the series.

This doesn't make any sense. Just because he transformed into her does not mean he would have aimed exactly her breast size. He would still have had to measure them.

Jiraiya was a very powerful ninja, and particularly proficient in stealth missions. He was almost the sole source of all information on Akatsuki, and was able to enter Amegakure and defeat several of Pain's bodies.
Jiraiya feared Tsunade after she beat him particularly badly once, but if the mission was important enough he showed himself to be ready to risk death.
I believe that with careful planning and execution, Jiraiya could have and would have done this.

During the time he was training Naruto, Jiraiya was seen fooling around with girls. It could be from the experience with girls that he had gathered for decades, that he was able to measure a girl's breast size based on looking only.

I believe the real reason why Jiraiya knows Tsunade's measurements probably has to do with him being somewhat of a lady's man in his own words. Which can be confirmed as there's an occasion when he's surrounded by women, thus meaning that he is such an experienced lover that he is capable of guessing a woman's measurement by looking at them. Plus he spent a lot of time spying on Tsunade in hot springs!

My best guest is he use his Cloak of Invisibility Technique a.k.a Cloaking Technique. (Synonymous to Naruto's kage bunshin). I just can't remember on what episode of manga the 3rd Hokage mentioned about Jiraiya using it (I think during a flashback of their training).

What happened to the Namekian Dragon Balls when the planet exploded?
When Namek exploded, what happened to the Namekian Dragon Balls?

I answered how I understood your question, but am not sure what you meant by final. Didn't Namek explode somewhere halfway through the manga?

In chapter 327, the Namekians were sent to Earth by using Porunga's third and last wish. As mentioned by Grand Elder, it seemed that at that time the Dragon Balls had followed him to Earth.
Then in chapter 329, after being on Earth for a year, the Namekians wished to be sent to New Namek together with their Dragon Balls.
So basically the Dragon Balls moved about together with the Namekians from Namek to Earth to New Namek.

Why were the coffins of First and Second Hokage not sealed?
In Naruto, we have seen that Orochimaru summons the coffins of both, the 1st and 2nd Hokage, and uses them to fight against the 3rd Hokage. Also in Shippuden Season 2, he tells that he experimented with the 1st Hokage's body to make Yamato. Why didn't the coffins of both the Hokage have any seals on them, so that no one could humiliate their bodies?

Obviously, they did have seals. (rarely, but maybe not?, but I highly doubt it). But do you think they couldn't just "un-seal" them? or break the seals? with there power and knowledge, it wouldn't be to hard.

How you perceive it is incorrect.
The Edo Tensei doesn't summon their coffins or their dead bodies. Edo Tensei uses the body of a live person. Then it binds the soul of the person you want to ressurect to the body of the host. Through this technique, they get the image of their own body and can use their jutsu.

The reason the Fourth couldn't be summoned was because his soul was sealed through a sealing technique he used to seal the kyuubi.

So.. how is it possible that the Fourth was summoned later on?

Because orochimaru sacrificed his life (he went into a new body after) to break the seal of the shinigami,so he could Simon the previous hokage

Why don't the citizens use the underground port and factory to escape the Birdcage?
People can use the lift to go down. The Birdcage wouldn't possibly be deep enough. Also, the cage won't do any harm since it is a port and there is sea-water. The path can be created by any strong character to lead to the uderground place like Fujitora, Chin Jao, etc.
Also the Scrapheap where Kanjuro was held could also be used for refuge!
This is the depth of the underground space:

Why isn't Oda using it?

On a related note, while googling the one piece birdcage, I found that the birdcage has been up for a full year now

It would not make sense for them to go down there. Most of the citizens don't even know about the underground port and everybody also witnessed Pica's strength. If they would go down there they would be sitting ducks. Doflamingo would be able to throw attacks at them and use Parasite until they all die, or Pica would be able to just bury them all alive.
Keep in mind that we know more than the people in One Piece know. Most people don't know about the port and a lot of people don't know about the sharpness of the cage. Normal citizens in general don't know about the port, because it was always kept secret, while those that were turned into toys, have a big grudge against Doflamingo and would be going straight for him to take revenge. There was also a short time period where the citizens believed Doflamingo and wanted to end the game by capturing the criminals.
Dressrosa is a pretty big country and is in a state of confusion. Aside from the fact that they just wouldn't all fit in there, most citizens take the most logical decision and that is running away from the most imminent treat. Those at the suburbs would notice the cage coming closer and would run towards the city center, while those at the city center, would see the Donquixote family being close and would try to run towards the cage as they don't know it is closing in and is as sharp as it is. The citizens are powerless and would just run until this is all over.
Additionally, the tunnel under Dressrosa is filled with water, so they either have to swim out of there, or take a boat. Since there are many people that cannot swim (elderly, kids, even adults, Devil Fruit users), they should all be carried or taken on a ship. Yet most citizens don't even know how to navigate a ship and there just are not enough ships available to carry everybody. So in any case many would have to be left behind.
When they would eventually reach the outskirts of the country, they should go somewhere. Yet they are in open sea, so there is nowhere to go. The only thing they could do is, build a tunnel upwards or make a net to climb the huge boulders and wait until the fight is over. While this on its own sounds very unlikely to be done, when they get out, Doflamingo would just redo the birdcage over the entire island, destroy the tunnel/net and start over from the beginning.

Also birdage might start from some meters under the ground, we don't know how deep it is in the ground.

If they are instructed to run to the center of the cage or push the cage,etc. , why not instruct them to go underground and swim to the edge of dressrosa where they can be out of the cage? Then the likes of fujitora,zoro,etc. can defend them from attacks... Your answer is on a defensive note... Not convincing... Also Oda is a genius! He should have atleast showed that such a trick is not possible because of some reasons you mentioned above! I think he either ignored or forgot the fact of the underground port!

@abhishah901  Your plan doesn't make sense on many levels and would result in the deaths of many, but I'll stick to the main point. Swimming is absurd, because many can't even swim and they would have to swim through the pretty long tunnel and all the way to the next island, which is impossible. So I assume, they should take the merchants' ships. This is also impossible, because there are not enough ships to carry everyone, so again many would be left behind and that is assuming many citizens can navigate ships.Even if they reach the edge of the cage, there is just nowhere to go from there

As you said many are citizens and so wont have any devil fruits(well,most of them).. The others can carry the Devil Fruit eaters like how Sanji,usopp and zoro help Luffy,chopper,etc. when they fall of the ship. And there's no need to go to another island! The citizens just have to be on the same island! the birdcage will have shriken a bit and the citizens just have stay on the outskirts! They have to rely on Luffy and other fighters to beat the shit out of Doffy.. Just like they are doing now but from the outside! That's it! I'm just saying that Oda never considered this possibility and why?

@abhishah901 I was talking about old, young and injured people. Those cannot swim. The tunnel will go out to the sea, so are you saying the citizens will create a tunnel, while swimming in the tunnel all the way to the surface and when Doflamingo sees this he will just ignore it? I dont buy that. The citizens are too weak to build a tunnel and when Doffy sees them outside he will just create a new cage because he wants to kill them all

Was Naruto's design inspired by Goku's?

Comparing Naruto and Goku, we can see that Naruto has the same hair and eye color as Goku from his Super Saiyan form and also, their jumpsuit color schemes are similar.

@LoganM Hey say something man!!

I'm not sure what you want me to say. All I did was remove [tag:identification-request], which doesn't apply to this question because the question isn't asking to identify any particular work.

Well, blue and orange are complementary colors so you'll often see them paired together. If Naruto were a clone of Goku, he would first need to grow some muscles, and then get rid of the whiskers on his face.

Seeing the answer given, I think if you would change the negative tone from your question to something more positive like  "Was Naruto based on Goku" or "Was Naruto's design influenced by Goku's" or what not, I think it would improve the question a lot and get you more upvotes instead.

To be honest, I'm not even sure why you are getting so many downvotes, without even a single comment explaining why.

@PeterRaeves Agreed. I think only the title is misleading. I'm sure it wasn't actually what he was trying ask.

I only see the hair as being the same color, Goku's eyes as Super Saiyen are Teal (like other Super Saiyens) while Naruto's are clearly blue

To put it precisely, no. As @Gao mentions in his comment, the difference in appearance between the two is obvious enough, keeping their clothing similarity aside. Moreover, Naruto and Goku exist in different series universes and hence they're not clones of each other.
However, the similarity between the characters are astonishingly similar.
This is because Masashi Kishimoto, the creator of the Naruto series, was deeply inspired by Akira Toriyama's (creator of Dragon Ball series) works. Kishimoto often describes how Toriyama's works influenced him and encouraged his own works.

Q: When was the first time that you thought of becoming a mangaka, and why?
Masashi Kishimoto: At some point between second and fourth grade I got into Akira Toriyama Sensei’s Dr. Slump anime and Dragon Ball manga. I loved his characters. I was especially attached to Dr. Slump’s Arale and Dragon Ball’s Goku. Also, his art really appealed to me. There was something about his cartoony drawing style that felt right, more so than realistic drawings. I thought to myself, I want to become like Toriyama Sensei.
INTERVIEW: Masashi Kishimoto - Feb 13, 2012

Masashi Kishimoto openly admits that the character Naruto is inspired by the hero of Dragon Ball, Goku.

Kishimoto cites Akira Toriyama's Dragon Ball series as one of his influences, noting that Goku, the protagonist, was a key factor when creating Naruto Uzumaki due to his energetic and mischievous personality.
Art Collection: Uzumaki, page 139

As for the clothing, both the characters are often portrayed in orange-blue color schemes (although it changes series wise). The reason for this uncommon combination is, to make the character appear more active and pop out to the viewers.
From TVTropes:

Basic complementary color theory states that when two contrasting colors are put together, they "pop," so the natural technique is to color films to have a strong, contrasting palette.

Bright color schemes are used so that the character would certainly catch people's attention.

The orange in his costume makes Naruto "pop" and the blue parts are often used as complements.
source: Naruto Uzumaki (Wikipedia)

Also, as I have mentioned above, Naruto was deeply influenced by Goku. Therefore their are very similar (that includes the color schemes too).
For more details regarding the creation and concept of the two characters, check out their Wikia articles:

Goku
Naruto Uzumaki

At lease compare the color schemes their similar

@Daniel I've added a few points regarding the color schemes. And for the sake of it, they are not clones of each other. I've mentioned several times in my answer that Naruto was inspired by Goku. Kishimoto designed Naruto after Toriyama's Goku. So yes, there are similarites between the two. But that doesn't make them clones of each other. It's common for a mangaka's work to be influenced after someone else's.

Name of song in Episode 9 of No Game No Life at around 21:45?
What is the name of the song played in Episode 9 of No Game No Life at around 21:45? I can't seem to find this song anywhere.

Can you give some more details?
From where did you watch the episode?
What are the events happening at the time?
From the No Game No Life episode 9 I have acess to, at 21:45 all the people involved in the game start crying about how they were actually very scared the whole time.
The interesting song that plays in that episode during the game's turnabout when Shiro plays the winning moves is "All of you is all of me".

@Sigfried666 Yes it was that song you mentioned in the former. What is it?

Probably "Gray Sky" from the OST vol. 1, track 02

If it is the end credit song of that episode it is:
Ai Kayano - Oracion

Do you have a source for you answer? It would make your answer better. :)

What chapter is the episode 413 of Naruto Shippuden
I  want to start reading the manga Naruto Shippuden, but I would rather start reading from the last episode that was aired (currently episode 413). Do you know which chapter that episode (episode 413) would be?

Naruto: Shippuden episode 413, titled Hopes Entrusted to the Future, is a filler episode. The entire arc, In Naruto's Footsteps: The Friends' Paths, is a filler arc. Meaning, none of the episodes from the arc has a manga equivalent and is anime exclusive.
However, if you want to check the manga equivalent of an episode from the main arc, you can get the episode details from Naruto Wikia.

Do characters announce genjutsu before casting, like regular jutsu and taijutsu?
In Naruto, they usually announce their jutsu's (i.e. fire style, fireball jutsu), but do they do the same for genjutsu?

When it comes to Sharingan, only once it was announced, before even the jutsu was used. It was by Itachi when he was fighting Sasuke. But When Sasuke was fighting Danzo, he used  Tsukyomi on Danzo, but Sasuke didn't announce it before using the genjutsu.
When it comes to Byakugan, Neji and Hinata announce jutsus before using it.
As with Rinnegan, Nagato didn't announce when he used Gedo Rinne Tensei no justsu to revive the people of Konoha. That might be due to already he was exhausted and on the verge of death. But during the Fourth Ninja War, Madara announced before he used the Gedo Rinne Tensei no justsu.

The only ones that come to mind is the Mangekyou Sharingan. Other than that, I don't recall them ever revealing their Genjutsu. I feel that Genjutsu is much more subtle than Ninjutsu or Taijutsu.

Why didn't Goku think of using Instant Transmission to get out of Hell before trying what Android 17 did?
Android 17 got out by opening the gap between Hell and earth. But instead of doing the same, Goku could have used Instant Transmission to get out. Why didn't he do so? Is it because of the fact that he was turned into a child and he could use Instant Transmission only as a Super Saiyan 4 (taking into consideration that Goku could only be a Super Saiyan 4 for a certain amount of time)?

While some minor copy-editing has been done, I still have no clue what is being asked here. Please edit your question to use clear, standard English  (at least as best you can).

The answer could lie in the way instant transmission could work, the user doesn't just "disappear" and "appear" rather they move at a super fast speed to where they want to be, so if they are in a contained space (like hell) they cannot just "warp" out. (note, this is based on opinion, and I really do not watch DB)

@Denslat and you're wrong. (Why even make such a statement if you don't watch it?) -- it has been discussed time and time again that instant transmission being superspeed was a bad translation. It has been stated that instant transmission is exactly what it is: Instant. This is also why Goku can travel to the other realm (King Kai's planet is in a similar realm as hell is! Note that if you fall off snake-way you get to the gates of hell!). So your comment is simply wrong. Goku could IT out of hell. He could IT anywhere.

Hell can be considered another dimension and you can't go between dimensions as usual. Like King Yama said, once you get there, you can't come back

From the Instant Transmission article on Dragon Ball Wiki:

When Goku became a child in Dragon Ball GT, the ability to use this technique was greatly hindered to the point where he just randomly travels to places a short distance away; however, as a Super Saiyan 4, he is able to use the ability to its full potential. When he is given energy by Goten, Trunks, and Gohan during the battle against Syn Shenron, kid Goku is able to properly use Instant Transmission.

Who wrote the passage on the Poneglyph at Skypiea?
In chapter 507 the Straw Hat crew meets Rayleigh for the first time. It was then that Robin asked whether Roger was able to understand the ancient language used on the poneglyphs, because at Skypiea she had come across a poneglyph with a passage written on it, supposedly signed by Roger. Yet Rayleigh said that they were merely pirates and that Roger could not match the intellect of those of Ohara. So then in the end, who did write the passage?

I have come here, and will lead this passage to the very end. - Pirate Gol D. Roger

I am sorry but this is not a question, because Rayleigh says that they were mere pirates they didn't have anyone from Ohara. Do you remember, in Fishman Arc (not Arlong) that the Sea Kings told each other that Luffy resembles to another pirate that could hear them?? This is exactly the same situation, he could "hear" the language and write something because of this hearing. I think this will be explained further in future arcs.

@pap So your answer would be that Roger wrote it himself? Although this doesn't explain how he was able to write it correctly though. Imagine if you would be able to hear someone speak Japanese, would you be able to correctly write down what was said without having learned the language?

That means you don't understand what I wrote. First of all it's fiction not reality don't mix them up, it's not like learning another language. Let me explain you a little more, what happened to Rogers was that when he touched or not, he could be able not to understand the language but to hear something which we dont know yet, and with that he was able to hear what he wanted to write down. When he passed from Fishman Island and heard the Sea Kings it was about the same, he could understand their language and as far as we know only specific fishmen were able to communicate with Sea Kings.

@pap I understand that he might be able to hear and understand the language, but does hearing and understanding a language make you able to write in it?

I am not 100% sure that this happened, but I think in near future we will find out!

It seems that we finally know. Oda revealed in chapter 818 that...

...it was most likely Lord Kouzuki Oden that wrote down that passage. The Poneglyph were created by the Kouzuki clan and it was confirmed that Lord Oden was able to read the language and write on the stones.

 Later it was revealed that he himself had travelled with the former Pirate King, Roger. So chances are that he travelled along with Roger to Skypiea and wrote that additional paragraph.

This is finally confirmed in the last page of Chapter 966

 Kozuki Oden is the one that read the poneglyph and write a note on the bell

Just like Luffy is stupid and can't understand Poneglyphs, Roger would've have been no good but he might have had a nakama like Robin, probably from Ohara, who may not only be able to read Poneglyphs but also might have a mastery in Poneglyph writing. Seeing Rayleigh mentioning about the Ohara tragedy, makes me think that that Nakama from Ohara was probably separated from others after Roger and with the end of Ohara, Rayleigh would've realised that he even lost another Nakama or maybe Rayleigh just have known the background of Robin (I can't declare for sure). That thing about Rayleigh saying "ability to hear" things is too inexplainary and not adequate to jump to any sort of conclusions but I gues Oda is probably preparing for a new ability for future like he did with Haki. That thing about Ability to Hear is similar to what Zoro had experienced during the Alabasta Arc while fighting Mr. 1. He was able to feel/hear the steel, rock, leaves, etc. But I still can't relate it to this Rayleigh's proposed Hearing Abiltiy theory. So I guess it would've been the work of a scholarly Roger Nakama like Robin.

"Ability to hear" is not referring to Zoro listening to rocks, leaves. Thats referring his haki awakening. This refers to Luffy being able to listen to sea kings in the Fishman Island arc. And sea kings also mention that this is the second human to be able to understand them.

Where did the concept of fighting Nightmares come from?
I know that the Nightmares the Magical Girls fight as a substitute for the Wraiths and/or Witches are born from people's nightmares (as shown when Hitomi returns to normal but is asleep and she was about to go to bed when the her Nightmare first appeared).
However, given the world in which they appear in is a fake one inside Homura's Soul Gem. I am wondering who came up with the idea of fighting Nightmares (Homura or the Incubators) and why a new kind of enemy rather than the Wraiths? (in order to keep the illusion of reality)

Out of universe, I assumed the Nightmares were added because they're more like the minimally threatening enemies of Sailor Moon or Card Captor Sakura, fitting with the tone of the false world.

The wiki page on Nightmares claims without citation that "The nightmares were created by the [sic] Homura's subconscious so the magical girls would have enemies to fight."

There is no canon answer to this question. The Nightmares' form and function appear derivative of the Wraiths (Wraith-lite if you will). Both are manifestations of the negative energies produced by humanity's dark emotions; the Wraiths' original generation from "curses" is now moderated to the much more benign "nightmares".
As to whose mind they came from (Homura's or the Incubators'), there is no way to know based on the information in the movie. The question at heart goes to the underlying basis of the "world" inside Homura's soul gem, which we are never told. While most of it is likely generated directly from her subconscious, there are other elements influencing it, such as the other magical girls who are external persons who became trapped in the barrier, and Kyubei and his comrades who are manipulating the barrier.
Both Homura and Kyubei were familiar with the workings of the real city, and with the real Wraiths, so the idea could have come from either of them.

Lessa The Crimson Knight, weird cover page?
So here is the cover page from Lessa the Crimson Knight.

I don't think I've ever seen this character, maybe it in the future,
but not once. Anyone know if he's from the first manga "Lessa", and I just missed him, or if I just forgot.

... there faces look the same, but he has blue hair, and he doesn't have a sword at least looking like that

That is

 Lessa, from the second season.

and (SPOILER ALERT!)

 he put on a red wig to disguise  himself. He explains about it in the second season.

How did Natsu solve his transportation problem?
In chapter 425, Natsu is seen riding a boar. How come his motion sickness had not kicked in?

He should've built an immunity to Wendy's anti-motion-sickness spell, so why isn't he getting a motion sickness here?

main reason is distraction, he is distracted with many thing , one is Gray, he does not get motion sickness riding animal if he does not think it as transportation medium.

The same as Happy applies. The boar is not a transportation vehicle, it's a living creature.

The reason why Natsu is not getting a motion sickness from Happy is not because Happy is a living creature. It's because Happy is his friend. If it is because its a living creature, then he won't get a motion sickness from Fukurou.

This was actually Natsu's own answer when Lucy confronted him of how he's not sick when flying with Happy. "Because Happy is Happy, and not a vehicle".

I'd forgotten about that one. Well I guess it could be explained by the rockets http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/fairytail/images/c/c8/Fukuro_grabs_Natsu_by_the_leg.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20110601192300. It's a mechanical way to fly so I guess the argument holds (kinda).

@DaMachk I thought that line was in relationship to something that Lucy was doing at the time and was a way of poking fun at her. It has been a while since I read the series so can't say for sure.

@JoeW don't overthink shonen manga/anime :D not everything is logical, not everything is explainable... and probably not even the author knows why he did it the way they did it back then anymore :D

@DaMachk How is it overthinking to have a memory that mentioning Happy didn't count as transport because it is happy and it was brought up as something that Lucy was currently involved in and became a joke?

Natsu gets motion sickness when he is riding a vehicle but he does not get motion sickness riding animals.(Well Natsu is an animal XD)

Subtitles vs closed captioning translation difference on Netflix?(specific to Funimation titles)
If anyone has Netflix in here, I have a question about the difference in Funimation subtitles vs closed captioning, which I'm guessing is provided by Netflix.
Not that I really even use Netflix for anime, but I have tried a few series and noticed Funimation titles have both, a Subtitles as well as a Closed Caption option, with different translations on both... not just the audible sounds and what not. Subtitles always being coded in yellow and CC being encoded in white.
Can anyone shed some light on this? Im guessing the yellow encoded subs are from the DVD localization, and then the white CC are a resub, relicensed through Netflix??

Subtitles are the translation of the Japanese, while CC (should be) what's being said in English.

Closed captioning (CC) and subtitling are both processes of displaying text on a television, video screen, or other visual display to provide additional or interpretive
information. Basically, both are the same. But looking into it technically, CC offers more.
From Wikipedia article on Closed Captioning:

HTML5 defines subtitles as a "transcription or translation of the dialogue ... when sound is available but not understood" by the viewer (for example, dialogue in a foreign language)

and

captions as a "transcription or translation of the dialogue, sound effects, relevant musical cues, and other relevant audio information ... when sound is unavailable or not clearly audible" (for example, when audio is muted or the viewer is hearing impaired).

To put it in simple words, subtitles display the dialogue whereas CC  is meant to replace sound, not just dialogue.
About your question, in most cases, the CC differs very much from the subtitles. This is because, in this case, Netflix, not only focuses on what's being said, but also on pretty much everything thats going on around. Subtitles, like you mentioned in your question, are often DVD localisations. But the CC  available on Netflix could be

made by the employees.
made by Audio Recognition softwares.
submitted by users or volunteers.

Therefore it leaves a significant margin for error. Hence resulting in the obvious difference between the subtitles and CC. I dont use Netflix, but it seems the matter is not exclusive to Funimation series.
And the color of the texts, I guess is just to imply that subtitles will be yellow colored while CC white.

What's the secret behind Eren's key?
In chapter 10, during Eren's flashback, Eren's father gave him a key and told him to embrace the power of Titan transformation if he wanted to protect Mikasa and Armin. His father said that the key is for the basement under their home in Wall Maria where all the secrets would be revealed. I wonder if it's already been revealed in the manga. If it has been revealed, can anybody explain it?

this is an important plot point, which is still unfolding. I suggest you keep reading the manga and enjoy the slow revelations

its a key to unlock the black box.

This has not been revealed yet in the manga but there have been further clues than are available in the anime.  Please note that this contains major spoilers.
Some Titans can turn back into humans.

 This ability can be obtained by eating a human with that ability.  Some other titan powers can be transfered in this way.  Some lineages of humans have special powers and most of humanity is from a single related lineage. Most of the memories of this family were erased by the "true royal family". One Titan has the ability to hold the memories of some past Titans including the Titan who built the walls and erased the memories. This ability can only be unlocked if a member of the true royal family has that Titan power. As this was said by a member of the true royal family trying to convince his family member to eat the current holder of that power (who wasn't a member of that family) this information is somewhat suspect. At one point in time, Eren's father had this ability (though possibly could not unlock it).  In addition, the member of the royal family demonstated the ability to inject himself with a syringe which turned him into a specific titan of his choosing.  Eren's father showed familiarity with this family and that ability.  In the basement, Eren's father has left some information either about the syringes, unlocking the Titan memory, what he learned via the Titan memory, why he betrayed the true royal family, or simply what we have already learned about Titans and the royal family but what Eren wouldn't have known at the time the key was given to him.

It is also possible (with the way this amazing manga preceeds) that the basement pertains to some secret that hasn't even been hinted to us yet.

Literally every sentence in the spoiler marker is a spoiler for someone who has not read the manga.

This has been revealed now in the manga. Please note that this contains major spoilers.

 The basement key... does not open the basement.  The basement contains a modest office that looks ordinary.  The key opens  a hidden drawer in the desk which... is empty.  But the drawer has a hidden compartment which contains three books.  A book contains a photo of a family.  On the back of the photo is a note indicating that this is a photo, not a drawing, and that is proves humanity is alive beyond the walls.  The books give Eren's father's life story and how that relates to their current situation.  That is being revealled in current chapters.

Updating @kaine's answer... The latest manga (Issue 86) has given further info regarding the key. Major spoilers follow.

The book Eren finds in the drawer opened by the key expands the universe in which the characters live on, saying that not only humanity has not been confined (and on brinks of extinction) but that the ones inside said wall are somewhat exiled from the "main", dystopic society. Eren's father himself was exiled after plotting against the rulers of said society alongside with his original wife, after his original son betrayed the couple.

If you do know what the beast titan is, then the following spoiler (also major, so please be careful) will be an upsetting twist of events.

 It has also been revealed that he is the son who betrayed Grisha Yaeger and, conclusively, Eren's halfbrother.

What were the Einzberns planning to do once Kiritsugu won the war?
The Einzberns hire Kiritsugu. Some random mage hunter guy.
As far as I'm concerned, the Einzberns pretend to use the Grail to restore the Third Magic thing.
But, if Kiritsugu uses the Grail for his wish (the world peace thing), won't the Grail vanish?
So the question is, what were the Einzberns planning to do once Kiritsugu won the war? Don't they need the Grail to get the Third Magic thing?

This spoils Fate/Stay Night, especially the Heaven's Feel route.

 There are actually two Grails. The Greater Grail that was created by the three mage families, the one that facilitates the war and is the one that would be used to "perform" the Third Magic. The Lesser one is the one that manifests at end of the war and does the wish magic. Most of the power that gets accumulated from heroic spirits goes to Greater Grail, while Lesser Grail gets only a small fraction for doing actual wish. Simply said, the whole "unlimited wish" from Lesser Grail is a plain lie.

So the Einzbern knew that Kiritsugu would not be able to get his wish granted and thus they knew they could secure the Greater Grail without problem (assuming Kiritsugu wouldn't think of destroying the grail)?


text:
Why did the Einzberns make Illya a master?
In both Stay/Night and UBW, Illya is a Grail vessel.
... and she's also a master.
Why did the Einzbern make her a master? If she wins the war, she will become the Lesser Grail because she is the vessel itself, won't she? And if she becomes the Lesser Grail, then there will be literally nobody present to take possession of the Holy Grail (since all other competitors would be dead / defeated).

An important thing to keep in mind in the FSN stories is that the 3 main families of the grail war--the Tohsakas, the Einzberns, and the Makiri--have all kind of gone insane and lost focus over the hundreds of years since the first war.  The Tohsakas are really the only ones who still remember the goal of getting to the root.  Zouken doesn't even remember why he started doing it, except for faint glimmers in one or two routes.  The Einzberns are mostly just in it to win it out of pride and see it finished.  Note that Zouken (head of Makiri) and Ahb (head of Einzbern) are both unnaturally old.

I believe the plan of the Einzbern's for the 5th Holy Grail War was to obtain the Third Magic on the spot, and not try and relay on a third party to secure it or the Greater Grail (as they did last time, which failed).
My evidence for this is shown in the Heaven's Feel Route, at the very end of the True Ending, Ilya is shown wearing the Dress of Heaven:

The Mystic Code of the Einzbern family, the Dress of Heaven, is the heart that controls the Great Grail that is capable of materializing the soul for several seconds. This allows for the transferal of a soul into another container, such as when Illya places Shirou's soul into a doll in a bad ending.

This is what Ilya uses to materialize Shirou's soul at the end of the Heaven's Feel Route using an incomplete form of the Third Magic, which is later found by Rider and placed in a puppet made by Touko Aozaki. It stems to reason that since the Dress of Heaven is transmuted from the ether that forms Leysritt, Ilya had the Dress of Heaven since the beginning of the war (thus having it in all 3 routes).
Also, Ilya is the strongest Master the Einzbern's could send out. The number of Magic Circuits she has overwhelms that of a typical magus. She has an unlimited supply of mana to supply to Beserker and she also possesses the Mystic Eyes of Binding. After she starts to break down from absorbing Servants, Kinoko Nasu has said in an FAQ that Leysritt and Sella would then aid her:

Q: What is Illya’s capacity as a Grail? Hypothetically, if the Einzbern won the War, Illya absorbed the other 6 Servants besides Berserker, and had some shred of human will left, could she still don the Dress of Heaven and initiate the Grail ritual?
A: That’s what Liz and Sella are for. Ilya can only take up to 4 - I would think that absorbing a fifth Servant wouldn’t allow her to function as a human any longer.

Source: Illyasviel von Einzbern - Citation 6
Now I don't know in what context they mean by "obtained" when referring to Magic in the Nasuverse so I can't think as to what would happen after, but I would assume Sella would play some role in it given that she was to help Ilya wear the Dress of Heaven after Leysritt is sacrificed.
The only other plan the Einzbern's may have had was to either materialize the soul of or extract the current modern time user of the Third Magic, Justeaze Lizrich von Einzbern from the Greater Grail.

There is no information on the original practitioners of the Third Magic. If it can be considered to have any user in modern times, it would be Justeaze Lizrich von Einzbern, who is the core of the Great Grail. Illyasviel von Einzbern also makes use of it in one of the routes of Fate/stay night, although it is an incomplete usage.

Can wizards/magic users possess more than one type of magic?
I've noticed that in Fairy Tail everyone has a different type of magic. But would it be possible to possess more than one type of magic? For example: Natsu being able to use Fire Dragon Slayer Magic and and also being able to use Magic like Gray's Ice-Make spells? Or are there rules for his Dragon Slayer Magic not allowing him to use different kinds of Magic?

Related: http://anime.stackexchange.com/q/20478/6166

Yes, they can. The best example is Makarov Dreyar, Fairy Tail's 3rd and 6th master. He can master many different types of magics:

Fairy Law
Fire Magic
Ice Magic
Light Magic
Maximum Defense Seal
Requip
Titan
Wind Magic
Dispelling Magic
Telepathy

Another example is Ultear. She originally learned Time magic and later learned Ice magic to kill her mother. Magic isn't something you are born with, it is something you can learn. So you can learn multiple magics, but with anything in life, if you stick to only one skill and train it with everything you got, you will become more profound in it, than if you divide your time between different skills.

How does navigation work in One Piece universe?
The navigation devices in the One Piece universe are:

The compass for the Eastblue, Southblue, Westblue, Northblue
The Log-Pose for the Grand Line
The New-World Log-Pose for the New World

Other navigation instruments (in exceptional cases) are:

The Eternal-Pose for Grandline (always points at the same island)
The South Birds on Jaya whose bills always point south.
The Kame-Pose who always points to Mecha

All of these navigation instruments have limitations and disadvantages. The compass, for example, does not work for the Grandline and New World. The Log-Pose can follow only one magnetic wave and takes time to record the next magnetic wave. And the Eternal-Pose works for only one island.
As you can see, navigation in the One Piece universe is very complicated. And this is the point where my question is. Besides the Eleven Supernovas, all other pirates, marines and other ships are free to travel through the whole Grandline and Blues, and to go on any island they want.
In episode 392, Shakuyak explains how hard it is to travel through the Grand Line for the Eleven Supernovas as they tried to get to the Sabaody Archipel. However, the Marines and other pirates commute easily between every island. Do they have an extra expensive Eternal-Pose for every island?
So why is navigation so easy for the Marines and other pirates whereas it is so hard for the Straw Hat crew (as example)?

Navigating is as easy as the goodness of your maps and directional devices. So in general I would suspect navigating to be as difficult for the Strawhats as for any other pirate crew. Pirates usually have the same amount of resources to start with. If anything it should be easier for the Strawhats because Nami has been looking at maps since she was just a child. Although this advantage was never really mentioned in the series and I don't think she was actually able to exploited that knowledge (yet?).
Now you are correct in saying that it is much easier for the Marines to navigate through the world and this makes a lot of sense. The Marines and the World Government have been around for more than 800 years, since the Void Century. Therefore they were able to draw maps of the entire world and would have been able to create many eternal poses for all available islands.
Books with maps are available in local stores or libraries as we can see how Nami's room at Arlong's park was filled with these books. Pirates would be able to obtain these books, but with the WG having much greater funds, I would assume every ship to have such maps available to navigate through the seas. The fact that the Marines travel by map can be seen in chapter 321 when Aokiji takes his map to check the location the Strawhats are about to travel to.

While on the grandline, the Marines use eternal poses to navigate. This can be seen in chapter 128 when Smoker asks for an eternal pose to Alabasta. All they really need to do is contact Headquarters and they will send them an eternal pose, presumably by air similar to the newspaper birds.

With the number of smart scientist the WG would have had over the years, it wouldn't surprise me if the WG would have similar devices for New World. I don't recall there being any mention of such a device just yet though.

Well, part of it is the fact that the Marines won't run into pirate resistance, as they don't get messed up by pirates, not even the strong ones like the Supernovas or the Four Emperors. No one else would think of messing with the Marines if pirates won't (probably).
I'm sure they have many more means of transportation, be it a vessel or navigation instruments, they likely have other technology for easy travel. So I would say yes, they do have other means of travel and even more efficient forms of navigation.
There is also the fact that they know how certain parts of the sea are, and use said knowledge to their benefit and their enemies' disadvantage when traveling.

What are Trebol's powers?
According to the wiki page on Trebol, he should be a Logia user, using the Sticky Fruit's powers. This was verified in chapters 741 and 760, when we could see Trebol completely unaffected after being cut into pieces by Usopp and Law. Now chapter 782 makes me really confused.

 In chapter 782, we could see how he was hit by Luffy, yet remained completely unharmed despite being hit with hardening Haki. Logia users should be hurt by attacks like these. Additionally, later in the chapter we can see Law cut his body open with his sword. This could be defended by the fact that Law could have imbued the sword with Haki, but the appearance of Trebol's shriveled up old body, makes me really think Trebol was Paramecia after all. Although a Paramecia should not have been able to live after having his body severed. Now what's the deal here?

speculation (and therefore not an answer) he could be like Mr. 3 or Magellan and coating himself in the sticky slime.  When he was cut in thirds, he is skinny/contortionist enough to hide in the top slice.

@kaine Yeah, I read that theory somewhere, but I'm not convinced. Oda never leaves plotholes, yet something weird is going on here. You can clearly see how his hand ended up in another slice than his head. That theory would assume that his hands were also just slime in the shape of hands, but that wouldn't explain how such a guy (he is pretty tall you know) would fit inside that small top half. Something is weird here. Even his staff got reassembled, because it should have been cut into pieces by law some chapters ago.

Regarding to your 2nd picture: I think Law used his devil fruit ability to cut him, like he did several times before (without killing his opponent). But you are right, Lysop also cutted him. My speculation: Trebol is logia type. He just wanted to confuse Luffy by asking "Am I really logia?". Logia have two "main abilities": transform their body into their element AND creating their element. So I think the slime which got hit by Luffy was a "created slime", not his "body slime". But, honestly, this would disappoint me if this is the way how a haki user can hit or not hit a logia user.

@Munchkin Well it does make sense though. He created kind of an armor. It is like Monet her wings. If she was hit in the wings she would also not be hurt and could rebuild them, because they are snow and not part of her original body. So in a way it does make sense and pretty smart of Trebol to hide his body like that

Just now I saw this on one-piece wiki
Beta-Beta-No-mi:
In Trebol's particular usage, he made it appear as though the fruit's power is that of a Logia, by covering himself in a thick coat of mucus around his emaciated body, which the opponents would assume to be part of his body and believe it to be intangible when attacking that empty space inside the mucus shell, giving him an advantage over enemies who fall for this ploy.

@pap they indeed changed the type of his fruit. I guess he was paramecia after all and law used his ability to slice him up. That would mean that Usopp missed him... I always thought he completely sliced him up too.

I truly believe he is a Logia user, it just makes sense. I agree that he used his powers to make his mucus outer shell. I believe he activates his full Logia powers when he needs to, thereby making his coat an extension of his body. Then he refrains from using his powers to keep his real body separate from his coat so as not to be hurt by haki users. So opponents never really know what they are hitting.
I compare him to a jello mold with a piece of pineapple in the center. Hard to get to that pineapple by simple means lol.
I also agree that Law's sword was imbued with haki to hurt him. They were in Law's Room after all, so it is quite possible that he was able to gain control of his arm and attach haki.

When I think more about it: A logia user could just create tons of his element and transform his body also into his element - this would give a haki user only a minimal chance to hit the correct body element. I think it's not that easy. Remember Smoker vs. Vergo: Vergo always hit the correct "body smoke". Luck? I don't think so. I can't find a source, but I can remember Rayleigh saying sth. like: "haki user can "feel" the body of logia types". So I think Vergo, who is a haki-master, was able to "feel" Smokers real body. But Luffy, who just learned to use haki, isn't able yet to "feel" it.

Exactly. All Luffy was hitting was the fake body which wasn't an extension of Trebol's real body. Between Luffy punching holes through his body and Usopp cutting him into pieces, Trebol has to be a Logia. I also like to point out that Doffy attacked Law with Full Blight while he was stuck in Trebol. I doubt Doffy would so recklessly attack someone that could put his No. 2 guy in mortal peril.

There are still things to clarify so far.
Right now, he may be  paramecia or logia.
Logia because of how flexible he can be and surviving after being cut by Law.
Paramecia because he may be just like Magellan who produces poison out of his body but cannot transform his body to be entirely made of poison. Both of them just produce the material out of their bodies. He survived Law's cutting maybe because of his very thin and flexible body that he could hide it in his very thick mucus.

I would like to share these speculations from various users:
Why Trebol is not a logia?

SBS Oda said that Logia is typically a "force of nature" which "sticky stuff" is not.
His entire outer appearance is probably created by the goo and has the ability to hide his real body anywhere inside and that makes him looks a logia
He is a paramecia type like Buggy. You could cut up buggy into a million pieces and he can reform again.
Most people in the series tend to have a secondary skill. He could be incredibly flexible and could have hid in one of the halfs of his body when Usopp cuts him to pieces.
Law might have used haki on his blade to severely cut him (but we haven't seen that Haki works like that even when the user part is cut he can still use haki).
Trebol makes a statement "Am I even a logia?"

Why is Trebol a logia?

Ussop and Law cut him into multiple pieces but each time without any haki or room ability being involved, so they didnt damage his actual body which is logia.
Trebol's actual "logia body" is the skinny one. He creates the substance and it clings to his sticky body and wears the huge coat to give the appearance of being a huge target.
Despite being skinny he's incredibly tall with a long limb. He could not possibly scrunch up his limbs in a impossible speed enough to "hide" in his half when Usopp cut him to pieces.
Luffy's haki didn't hurt maybe because he purposefully let the attack pass through because he said  "Logia means nothing to me".

Another Speculation:

Oda committed a mistake on Trembols power. Noticed that he did create a mistake for the power of Moria during the battle in Marineford. Zombies appeared in bandages during the battle at marineford just using shadows of marine soldiers.(Hogback should be at the scene to create those body of zombies and shadows was taken under the sunlight, marines should have evaporated along with the zombies). But Oda just let it slide because Moria will be useless at the Marineford if he doesn't have that power. Maybe the same happened to Trembol.

After reading all discussions about Trebol I came with this conclusion:

Its not clearly confirmed if Trebol is a Paramecia or Logia type. I think this issue will remain ambiguous until Oda confirms the facts.

I changed my answer as its all wiki reference. If you have other speculations whether Trebol is a Logia or a Paramecia pls just leave a message below.

+1 While I don't agree with some, I think this is exactly where the situation with Trebol is at atm. Btw what did you mean with "we haven't seen that Haki works like that". Isn't this exactly the same as when Zoro used Haki to cut Pica?

@PeterRaeves well those are just speculations as its not clearly confirmed yet. Well Zoro used haki with his body complete. While Law cut Trembol with his arm not attached. There is no explanation yet that haki user could do this even if a part of their body is detached.

Many are using the argument that Trebol hid within a piece of his body to evade Usopp's attack and that Luffy missed him because of how skinny he is. Trebol's height never changed. Even after losing his outer layer he was still just as tall. So for him to hide within his body like that would mean he'd have to be a contortionist with mad skills. And the angle and way he was looking through the hole Luffy made would suggest he could move his neck and body in a way that would snap a normal human spine.
In the anime, after Usopp's attack, Trebol reforms himself entirely. You can see his hand reform as it is grabbing his staff.
Trebol's devil fruit type is a mystery so far. Oda will have to confirm which he truly is. If he reforms himself after the explosion then we will have our answer. I still believe he is a Logia user.

I want to believe he is logia too,but the wiki seemed to have updated trebol's type to paramecia. So we might be wrong :(

The wiki is going off what everyone else is: Trebol saying Logia means nothing to him. They originally had him labelled Paramecia months ago, then Logia a bit after that and now back to Paramecia
