Could Future Trunks's future be saved?
One of the recurring questions in the original Dragon Ball Z manga was if Future Trunks's future could have been restored somehow.
Obviously the story was carefully made to remove the Earth Dragon Balls from the picture, but that would still leaves the New Namek version as an option. "Lucky" since Goku is dead that also removes the possibility for Trunks to know that New Namek exists in the first place.
But then Trunks comes to the present timeline. And everyone in that timeline knows that Namek still exist, with its set of Dragon Balls.
This in turn creates a question: is there any reason Trunks couldn't just get the information about Namek new location from the present timeline, get a spaceship from present day Bulma and get present Piccolo or even Dende to come with him to the future Namek and ask them for help?
Notice that this becomes even weirder if you consider that in Super Trunks has somehow made contact with the Kai but he still hasn't tried using the Namek Dragon Balls to resurrect everyone.
Dragon Ball once implied some weird time limit for resurrection, but that seems to apply only to evil people (because after a while their soul is cleansed and reincarnated).
Is there any other reason I am missing or is this a case of "we don't care, the cursed timeline is an useful plot device so it stays that way"? (which is kinda odd since thanks to Xenoverse 2 even Akira should be aware that "most time patrolers want to keep the happy future timeline going").
Also worth noticing that Team Four Star did reference this in the arbriged version: Bulma tries to find the new Namek but fails. Why she couldn't just ask to the past Z Fighters is still an open question. Even better, by the time Super was released, a simpler version of this scenario has been made canon. Gohan and Bulma try to use the Earth Dragon Ball to (do something, probably wishing Goku - who is clearly shown with his body in heaven - back )only to be fooled by Pilaf who just wasted the wish on a GT reference. And this is even forgetting further issues like Yemma having no issue deploying "Halo Vegeta" during Buu saga but obviously preferring everyone dead this time, Jaco doing nothing (an entire planet turned to ruins should raise some alert, especially if one of your closest friends live there), no one warning the Z-Fighters from afterlife (remember, Goku still has his body and should be able to reach King Kai) etc etc etc...
Therefore, to summarize: is there any actual reason Future Trunks could not have learnt the position of new Namek from the present timeline Z-Fighters and then used a spaceship from present Bulma to reach the planet (maybe with some of the present timeline characters tagging along to be recognized) and ask the Namekian for help, either to restore the planet or resurrect the people killed by the androids?

For the Cell Saga
Future trunks could've traveled to Namek, using Vegeta's spaceship. Since Trunks was born and raised on Earth implies Vegeta came on Earth, and he could've easily used his spaceship or Bulma could've repaired it if needed since she's depicted as a brilliant person when it comes to technology, to travel to Namek, if Kami wasn't there on Earth for some reason. Trunks could've easily gotten Namek's location from Picollo or others from the present day.
For Zamasu's erasure as well
Z-fighters could gather Super Dragon Balls from their timeline and revive Trunk's universe. As Super Dragon Balls have been shown to revive universes, not sure about Earth's Shenron's power regarding this.
He could've used present-day's Shenron as well, to recreate the same, as reviving the planets and dead is within reach of Shenron's powers.
One more thing is that the concept of timelines isn't straight in Dragon Ball, as changing the past, just creates a new timeline, which doesn't follow the space-time continuum.
I think Future is left as is, just in case new arcs are required (like they created Cell Saga in Z and Goku Black in Super), as having a similar timeline would remove that possibility, like which Goku to shine in that case.

you have one mistake here: Goku get to know new Namek position from King Kai after he discovers a planet similar to Namek. At that point the Namekian get wished on that planed and from there onward the main cast / Goku know where they are.
It is plausible that Goku does not know the exact coordinates of the plane but Bulma could probably map those out. It is also credible that since he died in the Future timeline no one has a way to travel to New Namek there and know its position. The point is that that info should be available in the past timeline so Trunks should be able to use it.

Considering that Goku never resurected King Kai despite being asked to (see Super) it is in character for him to not telling Trunks that he could try to reach New Namek in his timeline but Bulma (his mother ) should be much smarter than Mr. FightFightTrainTransformFight

As for the Super Trunks timeline, I always assumed that even if that is not canon in any way, the disappearance of the timeline was made so that the fan theory that the videogame Xenoverse Trunks is the Future Trunks after he went away with Mai and Chronoa "spirited away" him would work

Haha, you're right, also in the past time anything is possible using Dragon Balls, also it is highly possible that the location of New Namek was asked by Picollo or Gohan who actually cared for them, but the focus was mostly on others then, so it might have been missed in the story. And dying of illness (Goku) is a silly reason in Dragon Ball verse, where even death itself is a joke. And don't mind the Super, Mai was seen as a woman  (similar to Bulma) in the original Dragon Ball when Goku was a kid, but in Super, she's the same age as Trunks. LOL

Mai is kinda explained. Kinda.

Ohh, I might have missed or forgotten about this scene.

Notice that said scene makes the issue even more egregious since it proves that future Bulma had planned to use the Dragon Balls, so the fact she does not try to use the Namekian ones can only be justified if she has no way to track New Namek. Which means that her past self should be able to provide the missing info (and a spaceship, foods for months etc)

Yeah, that also goes for the reason, that Dragon Balls existed in their timeline, Bulma had the tracker, and they could've used it to kill Cell and revive others.

This interview from volume 4 indicates how the authors view Trunks's timeline. Mainly, they do not view it as possible to revive anyone who dies, since the earth's Dragon Balls are gone, and they view it as a point to make the story more tense:

Would Trunks "Save" His Future?
The answer is most likely no. Too much time has passed. Both those who died and those who survived have grown to accept the deaths. This is not a foreign theme to Dragon Ball. Think, for instance, of when Goku tells everyone not to revive him after his death in the Cell Games. Interestingly, he does this partly because he believes his presence attracts trouble to earth. He may be onto something, because Trunks's timeline has minimal problems with Buu, and Zamasu is actually caused by Goku in the present timeline. At any rate, Future Trunks and Future Bulma decide to accept what has happened--all the destruction and the deaths of their friends. They endeavor to move on with life and rebuild from there.
Another very important thing to note is that the time machine serves a function very similar to the Dragon Balls, and thus their wish has already been granted. Namely, a timeline now exists where the Androids were defeated and the dystopian future did not come. They can rest easy knowing there is a timeline where their friends and family are living peacefully. This is enough for them.
Can Trunks "Save" His Future?
There are some key problems in the Future Timeline.

There are no Earth Dragon Balls in the Future Timeline due to Piccolo dying.
It's possible the Namekian Dragon Balls may be unreachable due to infrastructure problems (there's reason to believe spaceship fuel may not be available in high enough quantities). The situation with the Super Dragon Balls is much worse since they're so big, and I do not see any way Trunks could gather them.
Wish limitations on the Namekian and Earth Dragon Balls mean that Trunks probably could not fully revive his world. There is a rule that mass revivals cannot be done if more than a year has passed. Due to Frieza's revival in Dragon Ball Super, however, it seems highly likely that Trunks could still revive individual friends as long as they haven't already been reincarnated or anything like that.
A lack of knowledge is also a problem. Trunks likely doesn't know of the lifted limitations on the Namekian Dragon Balls (since they weren't able to do mass revivals before). He also probably doesn't know where New Namek is. And Trunks also likely does not know about the existence of the Super Dragon Balls (before his time traveling in Dragon Ball Super).

Infrastructure Problems

In Dragon Ball Super, it is shown that Trunks and his mother struggle to get enough fuel for their time machine, and only make enough for a one way trip. In the present timeline, Bulma has only just invented the fuel for the time machine, but is able to more easily make enough fuel for Trunks to use. Most likely this is due to the androids decimating the infrastructure of the whole world back in the future timeline.
Extrapolating from this, I would think it likely that the remaining infrastructure would not be able to accommodate space voyages. In their blind rampage, the androids may have destroyed all the space ships. Even if not, the fuel would be a problem. Bulma decided to put all their efforts into the time machine, and they barely scraped by with that. Even after the androids are gone, they struggle getting enough fuel, suggesting the infrastructure problem is not solved. They probably do not have the ability to make a spaceship and the fuel it would require. This is an especially daunting task if they do not know where New Namek is.
The Super Dragon Balls are not really an option for Trunks, given how big they are. He could ask the gods to help him, but the Destroyers are unlikely to do so, and the Supreme Kais have not been shown to be able to collect them (as far as I can recall). Post Zamasu (post here refers to the time period after Zamasu begins his plot, where he is active, and before Zeno kills him and everything else), all the gods in the multiverse are dead, including the Destroyers. It seems a safe bet that the angels and Zeno would not help Trunks here due to their neutrality stance and the lack of a personal relationship Trunks has with Whis. So though the Super Dragon Balls are the best shot Trunks has at fixing everything, he doesn't really have any chance of being able to use them. I think we need to rule them out.
Post Zeno, the whole multiverse is destroyed. There's a chance that the Super Dragon Balls are gone too, though they might be indestructible, so who knows (It is stated that Zamasu destroyed the Super Dragon Balls after making his wishes). At that point, the only option Trunks has is to get help from the other timeline. Beerus and Whis might be able to collect the Super Dragon Balls for him, but they don't. Whis instead offers a different solution which puts Trunks back into the Zamasu phase. Though there's no rule stated as far as I'm aware, I doubt the other Dragon Balls would be strong enough to affect a different timeline. I believe we can infer this from the interview from volume 4 (see beginning of this answer), where the authors state that no one who dies in Trunks's timeline (mainly referring to Vegeta and Goku) can be revived.
Help From the Present
Even establishing these problems, there are obvious workarounds for Trunks. For getting a spaceship, he could simply ask for one from his mother in the past, where that's no problem. And with capsule technology, the limited space in his time machine is no problem, so he can easily take them back. He can also ask Goku where New Namek is.
So, Trunks should be set. But only if he can even think to ask. It's actually a bit doubtful as to whether he could conceive of this plan, for reasons explained in the next section.
Lack of Knowledge
At the point in the story where we first meet Future Trunks, nobody knows about the lifted limitations on the Namekian Dragon Balls. This is not revealed until after the Buu saga. Thus, Goku and Future Trunks would both be limited to thinking that these Dragon Balls cannot restore everyone killed by the androids.
If we move to Dragon Ball Super, Trunks still has no reason to inquire about the Namekian Dragon Balls. Thus, someone from the present would have to suggest it. It's very plausible they'd just not even think about it, and thus not mention it. Particularly as they and the story tone often don't seem to take Future Trunks's problems as seriously as he does:

(This is more of a Dragon Ball Super thing than Dragon Ball Z thing)
And given that even more years have passed, there's a great chance that it's impossible to revive everyone due to the limitations on the Dragon Balls, as explained in the next section.
Limitations on the Dragon Balls
Not really a source, but I was using this to verify two rules I remembered.
https://screenrant.com/dragon-ball-shenron-wish-rules-change-explained/
I think it's true that it's been stated that people cannot be revived if too much time has passed (one year). Given that Frieza was still revived even though more time than that has passed, it probably has to do with souls being purified in the afterlife or something. In Frieza's case, his stubbornness prevented him from being purified. Given that this limitation rule is stated as a general rule, and not directed solely towards evil characters, I think it likely that ordinary people's souls are also purified and reincarnated, thus making them unavailable for revival. If this is the case, then Trunks cannot revive his world at the point in the story where he is introduced or any point afterwards since too much time has passed.
Just going solely off my memory of the series, I'm not entirely confident on those previous points on that limitation, simply because I don't remember it being stated in canon (the linked article states "In a conversation with King Kai in the Frieza saga, Kami claims that the Dragon Balls can only perform mass resurrections when the subjects have been deceased for under a year, drawing another red line under Shenron's abilities."). What I'm quite confident on, however, is the limitation on being unable to revive someone who died of natural causes. I recall King Kai contemplating this while considering resurrecting the Grand Elder Guru, so this is definitely a rule. Thus, at the very least, resurrecting Goku would be impossible since he died of natural causes (a disease).
Conclusions
Post Zeno, the only shot Trunks has is the Super Dragon Balls. But even in the other cases, it's doubtful the Namekian Dragon Balls would be enough, given the one year limitation on mass revivals. Trunks could potentially revive individual friends and family members one by one (excluding Goku), but a mass revival couldn't happen without the Super Dragon Balls.
Since Trunks has no hope of collecting the Super Dragon Balls in his timeline, going to the present timeline would be his best chance. He could ask Beerus and Champa to help him, but they are unlikely to do so, especially since Whis already gave him a solution which the gods thought was already too generous and too much time tampering.
Probably the best chance Trunks had for a mass revival was to have participated in the Tournament of Power in the present timeline and taken the wish granted to the winner. In that case, he probably could have even fully resurrected the multiverse in the timeline Zeno destroyed (as long as it is really true that the Super Dragon Balls have no limits).

Back in Dragon Ball we are shown that Uncle Gohan still lives in the afterlife as a spirit, despite the fact that quite a lot of time has passed after the incident that got him killed. Goku is never reincarnated after his death in the Cell saga and based on Gohan age during the Bu saga many years have passed. You may argue that this is an honor reserved to good fighters that helped in the past, but even in that case they should be able to resurrect Goku & most of the Z fighters without issues.

So, the alleged time issue should not be a problem (I think the only actual time Shenron mentions something like that is when Kid Goku first climbs Karin's tower, afterward it never really comes up again). It is also worth noticing that during Bu saga when everyone dies... they all end up in the same place.
I also don't get what you mean by "nobody knows about the lifted limitations on the Namekian Dragon Balls"... What limitations? The "one time resurrection" thing? That is the reason Goku becomes SSJ on Namek - he thoug Krilin couldn't come back. What happened next....?

@SPArcheon The Namekian Dragon Balls were originally not able to do mass resurrections of people who died under similar circumstances (all killed by Buu, for example). As far as I'm aware, Goku and everyone else didn't know this limitation was lifted until the Buu Saga, when it became necessary to use them due to the Earth Dragon Balls being destroyed along with the planet. Thus, at the original time of Future Trunks's arrival in Dragon Ball Z, they would not have suggested using the Namekian Dragon Balls to him for the purposes of reviving everyone killed by the androids.

I only remember that detail because I forgot it. https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/38349/is-the-intersection-of-people-killed-by-cell-and-majin-buu-still-dead

Are Devil Fruits attracted to a specific user's will?
I know that many Devil Fruit in the One Piece manga have been documented and catalogued in universe. For example Law's fruit abilities were already know before he ate the fruit  (and the very reason Flamingo was searching for that fruit in the first place).
At the same time I am wondering if the fruits are somehow attracted to a specific person since in many cases the fruit seems a good match for the user personality, even to the point it would be far less effective or useless in the hands of anyone else (Boa).
Some examples that come to mind:

Luffy's Gum Gum Fruit or Nika Fruit, gives him flexibility/freedom which is Luffy's desire and will.
DoFlamingo's String String Fruit, as he liked to puppet/control others.
Boa Hancock's Love Love Fruit would probably be useless or at least far less effective for anyone else
While Alvida undergo a radical change due to her fruit, it is strongly implied that she saw herself as beautiful even before (or at least she wanted to). It is possible that this is also true for Ivan (we don't know if the hormone based powers of their fruit was something they wished for before)
Big Mom's Soul Soul Fruit, because she wanted the company of people/souls who'd also obey her. Considering how she found herself alone this also matches the theme of consuming other persons life.
Whitebeard's Tremor Tremor Fruit, because of his will to be strong enough to protect his family.
Marco Bird Bird Fruit (Phoenix), gives him both offensive and healing abilities considering his need to be the protector of his fellows being first commander and doctor.
Blackbeard's Dark Dark Fruit because of his evil nature.
Sakazuki's Magma Magma Fruit, for his extremely fiery behavior and will to burn away evil.
Buggy's Chop Chop Fruit, he likely wished for Shanks to be a strong swordsman (as they were best friends at that time, probably now as well).

and a lot more.
While this can easily be justified as a plot device (having some user be a match for his power helps to write a better character) I was wondering if it could be an hint at something more.
I am therefore asking if there is any proof in the manga/show that some fruits are attracted to specific individuals based on some sort of compatibility or will power.

Notice: when helping you with the edit I took the liberty to remove you example about Blackbeard's crew sniper since in that case it looks like Blackbeard crew hunted down the fruit as oppose to finding it by chance

Yeah @SPArcheon, I had noticed, no worries

In the Tournament of Power had anyone planned in advance to use the wish to restore the other universes?
In the anime version of Dragon Ball Super we can clearly see how every single universe is mad at Goku for being the one that with his proposal to Zeno brought forth the Tournament of Power, and with it the risk for every single creature in 7 whole universes (8 universe took part in the tournament but the winner one would be saved) to simply be erased from existence.
Yet, despite Goku apparently triggering the biggest genocide in Dragon Ball history no one seems to really think of a way to save everyone, only focusing on their own universe survival. Later we actually discover that out of sheer luck the Tournament actually worked in favor of the 8 Universes because Zeno was planning to erase all of them anyway but initially no one was aware of that detail.
For this reason, I always wondered if someone actually realized the simple opt-out loophole in the rules. No universe needed to win to save themselves - they simply needed to fight at their best (since refusing to battle would make Zeno angry and result in immediate deletion) while working to ensure that the winner had at least a bit of ... moral? ethics? to actually use their wish for the the only decent thing to do and save everyone else. And apparently at least in the anime that was what Zeno expected since it is afterwards pointed out that had a selfish wish been made instead, he would have erased the winner too.
In the end, 17 wins and uses the wish to restore all the other universes that were erased during the tournament. Before that during the battle Vegeta had also pointed out that he intended to wish back at least the Saiyan race from Universe 6 (he promised that to Cabba). But.... had anyone else planned anything similar?
It seems something pretty basic to realize, and I am kinda baffled that at least the likes of "Maiden of Love" Ribrianne or "Warrior of Justice" Toppo wouldn't have that figured out...
Is there any indication that anyone in the tournament had planned  in advance to use the wish to save all the universes?
It is worth noticing that even Frieza apparently handwaves that the wish could be used to bring back someone from another universe when he tricks Frost into a fake alliance (at least in the anime version he offers his alliance to other universes if they use the prize to wish him back afterward). Yet it should also be mentioned that in the manga 17 only uses the wishes to save the other universes in order to spite Zeno and their rule, unlike the anime version where he does that out of compassion showing a personal growth as a result of his new life.

If they had, the tournament mightn't be as interesting and Zeno might have destroyed everything because he wanted the tournament for entertainment. And Goku would've disagreed as always because he would've wanted to fight everyone at their strongest as if their survival's at stake.

Which would then finally show him as "evil" or "chaotic-lawful" at best. Genocide "for fun" when you have another option. Eeek,  in most other shows a decent hero would have been crushed by the realization of what they started, Goku is fine and does not care. Good.

@Zero just try to imagine for fun Midoria in the same situation. Even on a smaller, non lethal scale. Imagine him triggering a school tournament where each class but the winners will be expelled. His mind would be utterly destroyed. Goku doesn't care about 7 universe being erased. Obviously in all those universes there isn't a little Pan that just wanted to grow up, there aren't friends who wanted to live, there isn't anyone worth fighting again if he already beat them in the tournament, so why keeping them around?

Goku "purity" is similar to Zeno: there is no need to keep around universes with a low mortal level, there is no need for people that aren't worth to fight to live anymore.

Exactly, there's no line between Evil and Chaotic-Lawful in Dragon Ball verse, you might have already seen it before Zeno, Beerus was destroying planets for food and spared the earth for the very same reason.

In my honest opinion, Dragon Ball verse has prioritized power more than basic humanity, and common sense.

Which really makes you wonder about Zeno reprising him when he arrives at the Universe 7 and 6 tournament. Whis says something along the lines of "Beerus being lazy and ignoring work" but no point is made about the fact that Beerus was destroying worlds without any specific reasoning at all. Therefore Zeno is perfectly fine with death being not a punishment but something given out at random because your food is not good enough.

I agree, in most of the other anime, the main characters wouldn't trigger wars just to have fun.

In the anime version of Dragon Ball Super, it's not explicitly stated whether any of the participating fighters had planned to use the wish from the Super Dragon Balls to save all the universes. However, it's possible that some of the fighters may have had this in mind as a possibility.
Vegeta does mention that he intended to wish for the restoration of the Saiyan race from Universe 6, but it's not clear if he had any plans to extend this wish to include the other universes as well. It's also possible that some of the other fighters may have had similar thoughts, but it's not mentioned in the anime.
Ultimately, it's up to interpretation whether any of the fighters had considered using the wish from the Super Dragon Balls to save all the universes. However, it seems that the ultimate outcome, with 17 using the wish to restore all the universes, was not something that was planned or expected by any of the fighters. It was more of a fortunate coincidence that resulted from Zeno's decision to spare the winning universe.

Does Anyone Contemplate Using the Wish to Save All the Universes?
Neither the anime, nor the manga show any of the fighters contemplate using the wish to save all of the rest of the universes, nor is there any sort of collaboration to this end. There are a few instances of the wish being discussed. Most notably, this one in volume 7 of the manga comes closest:

It's very telling that the wolf guy says they need to figure out a way everyone can survive. This suggests that he does not currently know a way all the universes can survive. Even though it may seem obvious to us to use the wish from the Super Dragon Balls, it evidently is not to this guy. Piccolo does not have a response either.
There are several other times when a wish is discussed. 17 for instance, wants a yacht. And it is confirmed in the manga that Jiren would wish for the revival of his master. In exchange for his cooperation in fighting for Universe 6, Frieza asks Frost to use the wish to revive him (this is later shown to be a deception). In the anime, Vegeta suggests that he will use the wish for Universe 6.
Nobody says anything about saving all the universes.
There are four plausible conclusions here: either the fighters cannot even conceive of the idea of using the wish to save all the universes, the fighters cannot think of using the wish to save all the universes as a good idea, the fighters don't care about any universe but their own, or the narrative of Dragon Ball Super simply refuses to show us any fighters thinking about saving all the universes.
Thesis
Having established no one was shown to contemplate using the wish to save all the universes, it makes sense to try and determine why. As I will soon show, using the wish to undo the destruction of the universes is not as obvious as we might think.
There are many reasons why:
Out of Universe

The narrative does not show anyone thinking this, even though some people might be thinking it, in order to retain tension during this story arc.

In Universe

Making this wish would mean opposing the will of Grand Zeno, who wishes to reduce the number of universes.
The majority of fighters are unfamiliar with the Dragon Balls, so they might not be capable of thinking to use them to restore all the universes.
There is no trust amongst the universes and the fighters.

Out of Universe Explanation
A lot of the tension in this arc hinges on the fact that the universes are being culled. Up until the first one is completely obliterated, we wonder if Zeno is actually going to do it... and then he does.
As far as suspense goes, Dragon Ball Super inherited a very big narrative problem in the Dragon Balls. Time after time, the heroes have used their wishes to undo all the damage done by the bad guys. If that's the case, why should the audience worry about anything? The Dragon Balls make suspense very difficult. But the writers shouldn't totally give up on suspense, right? Thus, does it make sense to show any character contemplating wishing to restore all the universes ahead of time?
The answer is no. Once the audience is cued in that this is a possibility, the main source of tension is gone. The audience might wonder about it themselves, of course, which will make it frustrating to watch the tournament when the writers are deliberately avoiding talking about it at all. Still, whether or not it is truly a shock, the writers have to at least try to make 17's wish a surprise.
In Universe Explanations
Respect/Fear of the Gods
As the question points out, this whole situation doesn't seem to make sense. With some reasoning and examination of the story, I will try to provide a framework where this situation makes sense. Perhaps this is just my opinion, but I believe we should try to believe a story makes sense until the author blunders and contradicts themselves so badly it cannot be rectified and is undoubtedly a plot hole. Thus, if there are frameworks where a story makes sense and frameworks where the story does not, then we must reject the frameworks where the story does not.
Thus, what it comes down to is this: while it would seem that a wish to restore all the universes should be obvious, under close scrutiny, it is not.
Zeno is the highest level god in the Dragon Ball multiverse. He is so powerful that all of the Destroyer Gods are afraid of him. And if Zeno truly is a being of which no greater can exist, then what he says is absolute and infallible. Whether or not this is actually true is not important. What is important is that many of the combatants will believe this.
The head angel (speaking on Zeno's behalf) states many times that the universes are going to be culled, that it is necessary, and that it is Zeno's will. Now, what does making a wish to undo Zeno's will amount to? It amounts to a rejection of his words and actions. Isn't that clearly the wrong thing to do? And if Zeno is the being who decides what is right and wrong, wouldn't it be immoral?
Consider the real world Abrahamic religions (Christianity, Islam, Judaism, etc), for instance. According to the tenets in these religions, there are no circumstances under which it is acceptable to defy the Abrahamic God. In their stories, God asks Abraham to sacrifice his son to him. The correct answer is not to say, "Hey, this is wrong, I'm not doing that." Rather, the correct answer is to comply, and in the end God will say, "Okay, you can stop; I was just testing you."
Apply this logic to the Dragon Ball multiverse. These two cases offer answers that are exact opposites. So Zeno wants the winner to openly go against his will to destroy all but one universe? How can he expect that when even the Destroyers are afraid to speak out against him? And how can that possibly be what's right when Zeno is an infallible deity? The angels stated multiple times that Zeno wished to cull the universes because there were too many. Honestly, if I were in the position to make that wish, I would simply assume if I used the wish to restore the universes, Zeno would just blow up every single one all over again, and this time the winning universe would be included.
I don't think it's an exaggeration to call Zeno a being of whose will is absolute. He can blow up an entire universe in an instant, so what else could he be, at least in the eyes of the mortals? Some or maybe even the majority of the fighters from the universes must think of him as an unstoppable and immutable force that shouldn't be tested. In fact, this very idea is stated over and over again in the manga and anime.
It is not unreasonable to think most of the fighters would think restoring the universes with the Super Dragon Balls was a bad idea. Over and over again, the deity characters state that Zeno is insurmountable. Going against Zeno is thus futile. And in the manga, we get this conversation between Whis and Goku from volume 6, page 68:

Goku: Yeah... Maybe I'll ask the Lord of Everything to call off this whole erasure thing.
Whis: I wouldn't do that if I were you. The Lord of Everything and the Grand Priest decided this. If you offend them, you'll just be erased.

What else do we know about Grand Zeno? Namely, that he thinks managing so many universes is a pain, and the endeavor seems pointless especially on account of their mortal levels not going up; thus, Zeno wants to get rid of some of the universes. This is shown directly in the manga between a conversation between him and the Grand Minister.
All this gives us these assumptions:

Zeno wants to see a fighting tournament.
Zeno wants less universes.
Zeno cannot be opposed.
If Goku suggests stopping the tournament or the erasure of universes, Zeno will be offended and destroy him.

From these, I would extrapolate this conclusion:

If you undo the destruction of the universes, Zeno will be offended and destroy them all again, because as stated in 2, he does not want to manage so many universes.

At the very least, it is not unreasonable to think that the fighters are worried about this enough to think restoring the universes is not a viable option, or too risky. We should also question whether the fighters care enough about the other universes to risk their own in the event of their victory.
At best, Zeno's challenge is a riddle. To figure out what the correct wish is, one would have to put together the pieces: first, that perhaps the reason Zeno isn't the one saying anything is because the angels are not actually stating Zeno's will. And two, the reason that there are no restrictions on the wish is to use it to defy the destruction of every universe. But considering the destruction is in the first place being caused by the top-level god, who is supposed to determine what is good and moral, I don't think the answer to the riddle is obvious at all.
So to answer the question, I believe it is exceedingly likely that the majority of fighters did not plan on making a wish to restore all the universes if they won. Unless they have zero respect or fear for the gods (like Goku and 17), it would have been a difficult idea to even conceive of.
Evidence
I will preface with the following: fiction is a reflection of reality. Author and reader alike make default assumptions about a fictional world. Thus, ideas, even religious ones, will inevitably creep in. And indeed, though I started from a place of comparing Dragon Ball Super to real religions, I found plenty of the specific ideas I examined present in the work itself. Toriyama and Toyotarou's own views on the gods in their work can also be gleamed from this interview at the end of volume 4.

It's notable that they write the deities are just. This view would likely be reflected in their writing as well.
Since it has been rightfully questioned whether the people in the multiverse of Dragon Ball hold the proper reverence for their deities, I will try to examine the matter.
What I have is this: whether it's King Kai, Supreme Kai, or Beerus, the deities are constantly shocked at Goku's lack of respect. When Goku talks to Grand Zeno casually like they're buddies, Beerus has a total flip-out. This constant shock can only lead one to conclude that Goku's behavior is completely aberrant. The majority of the people in the multiverse would understand not to question gods.
Consider Vegeta and King Vegeta as well. When Beerus shows up, they both become groveling cowards to the point of becoming comic relief.
Another example comes from the manga in volume 9. We see the Namekians praying to their Dragon Ball, saying

It is thanks to the protection of the gods that we may live in peace. We mustn't forget to be grateful.

A quote from volume 8, just before Universe 10 gets obliterated:

Lord Gowas! I'm satisfied just to be carrying out the will of Universe 10's gods.

This all seems like a general adherence to the gods to me.
And here's a quote from Zamasu I found on https://dragonball.fandom.com/wiki/Zamasu

"You give corruption far too much credit, evil does not inform good. It sullies it, like how the Babari sullied their world with violence, or how that arrogant Goku sullied this sacred ground by swinging his fists at a God. Mortals receive the divine gift of intellect, the potential for wisdom, but they misuse it to destroy the beauty of creation. Mortals do not succumb to evil, they are the evil. They create it, and spread it with minds they shouldn't possess. How can we call ourselves gods if we watch this plight and do nothing to stop it?"

Here's a similar quote from chapter 19 of the manga (volume 3, page 152):

Zamasu/Goku Black: "In this universe right now... I reign supreme! Draaah!!!"
Vegeta: "We don't need a god who forces his own twisted sense of justice on us."
Zamasu/Goku Black: "Silence, you filthy mortal!! My reign is absolute! Every action that I, the supreme god, make... is justice!"

And from volume 4:

Zamasu is a bad guy, but these quotes and Zamasu's disgust with Goku shows that the idea that mortals are bad, and thus that gods are good and determine good, is not foreign to the world of Dragon Ball.
Additionally, in volume 4, the Supreme Kai gives some indication towards thinking it's a particularly egregious crime to kill a god:

Now, consider the fighters at the Tournament of Power. The most fervent believers in justice and love, such as Ribrianne and Toppo, have been questioned for seemingly not thinking of restoring all the universes with the wish. But oftentimes, the ones most dedicated to justice can be the ones most susceptible to blind obedience to higher authorities, including gods and angels, so I don't see this as contradictory. If Zeno is approving of what's happening, they might see the tournament as just, or they might simply see opposing Zeno as futile. Such thoughts will lead them away from contemplating this kind of wish.
We can see a bit of their trepidation in these panels from volume 7, so we know that their gods have told them enough about Grand Zeno.

Examining the final episode of the anime, Krillan and some others were shocked by 17's wish. It isn't really explained why, but we can assume either it was a surprising wish (nobody else could even conceive of it) or it was a dangerous wish (Grand Zeno might get mad).
Perhaps further evidence is the reason 17 makes the wish in the manga. As per volume 9, page 83:

Mostly, I just didn't want those little imps to have their way with things.

17 changes his wish to spite the two Grand Zenos. We see none of the "good" and "just" fighters even think of saving all the universes. The one person who actually makes the wish to restore all the universes is one with no fear or respect for the gods. And the Grand Priest bumps up Universe 7's mortal ranking for this, so evidently it is a good thing.
First Time Seeing Dragon Balls
We have to consider that for many of the fighters, this is their first time being told they can get a wish. Without the years of experience with Dragon Balls that Universe 7's heroes have, it might be difficult to even think of what that wish can be used for. I don't really have much to say about this reason, and the evidence is just that nobody seems to think of saving all the universes (see the picture at the beginning with the wolf guy).
The tournament also goes by pretty fast and is chaotic (at least in the manga, we get this impression), so a lot of the fighters might not even have a chance to stop and think. The spectators are enthralled in the match as well due to the fate of their universe being on the line.
One last point though: it is stated that there is no limitation on the wish, but there actually is one. It will be filtered through the Grand Priest, since it needs to be spoken in the language of the gods to Super Shenron. This is just another reason to be cautious with any wish. Did you want to wish Zeno destroyed to stop this from happening again? Whoops. Now you're in trouble.
Distrust Amongst the Universes
Another thing to consider is the level of trust between the universes. The gods and destroyers are all squabbling for survival, and not cooperating at all. It doesn't follow that the mortals would trust anyone from another universe to use the wish to restore theirs. Their distrust may even extend so far as to make them not want to restore any other universe. Regardless, there would be no cooperation; even someone contemplating making the wish, would not trust anyone else, and they would fight all the harder to make sure it's them who gets the prize.
We see Frieza making deals, but that's just him playing mind games, and it ends in backstabbing; that's because in the end, Frieza isn't going to trust his survival to the chance another universe would follow through on using the wish to revive him. It would be so easy not to once he's gone, after all. And that's true for any kind of deal regarding saving all the universes.
Some Frieza quotes from the manga:

Entrusting the fate of your universe to another? I've never heard something quite so pathetic.

Oh of course. In the heat of the battle, I forgot to mention some key advice. Never trust anyone!

Why even hesitate? This is a survival game, and our very existence is on the line. It seems I'm the only one here with a clear idea of how this is supposed to work.

The last one continues from the picture I included of Piccolo and the wolf guy. It just goes to show that even if some of the participants are willing to work together, it only takes one Frieza on the team for things to end in betrayal.
And a quote from Vegeta too:

Need me to hold your hands, child? Don't forget--in this arena, we're foes, so don't look to other universes for aid!

@SPArcheon Hmm... I don't find that criticism valid because everyone present at the tournament has been informed that Zeno is a god, and no doubt the Kais and Destroyers emphasized how scary he is. Plus, as the tournament progresses, they've seen him wipe out whole universes. At that point, he's clearly very far above them.  And sure, they can ask him if they're allowed to make that wish, but after the tournament starts, the only chance to do that is after someone has won, which makes the question of whether they planned in advance to make the wish moot.

Anyway, if anyone finds anything in the text of Dragon Ball Super that shows someone contemplating a wish to restore all the universes, I will gladly upvote it as the correct answer. I suspect there is no such content, however, due to my (admittedly flimsy) memory, as well as to the fact that the story seems to necessitate it coming out of left field from 17, to surprise the audience.

"the only chance to do that is after someone has won, which makes the question of whether they planned in advance to make the wish moot." I don't see why that would be a thing. I could have "planned" that idea and yet decided to "check the water" after seeing what Zeno did during the tournament. To put that in context, Frieza is implied to have planned to use the wish against some god - probably Beerus - if he had the chance to do so. Yet... I doubt he would blindly make that wish before trying to confirm the consequences.

@SPArcheon You specifically mention morals and ethics in your answer. Thus, I would contend that there is a difference between planning on asking if it's okay and planning on wishing to restore the universes. Is verifying the god's wishes what is right or is defying the god what's right?

BTW, had some time looking into some of your examples. You compare an anime to real world religions (something imho is not fair in the first place). You mention Abraham. It is worth noticing that in the New Testament letter to the Hebrews,  11:17–19 states: "It was by faith that Abraham offered Isaac as a sacrifice when God was testing him. Abraham, who had received God’s promises…. reasoned that if Isaac died, God was able to bring him back to life again…". Basically, he though that since God had promised him that Isaac would have given him descendants Isaac had to live somehow. [cont]

[cont] The same Abraham would later pleaded for Sodom and Gomorrah since in that case he feared that God destruction would be definitive. If you really have to try to justify Goku action by comparing Dragon Ball world to real religions, then "Abraham Goku" should have asked Zeno to "spare the other universe if they had at least one good person"...

I never said anything like "Goku is Abraham". You misunderstood something. 2. The idea that gods are supposed to be obeyed is so common it's pretty unlikely Toriyama didn't hold it himself or know of it, such that it would seep into the story of his manga. Indeed, much of Dragon Ball's humor stems from going against this established norm, by having Goku be rude and/or super causal with deity characters.

In my opinion and going by the Dragon Ball story, if any of the universes would've planned to revive other universes using super Dragon Balls, they wouldn't fight for their survival, making the tournament boring, whereas Zeno started the tournament for entertainment.
Also, multiple characters would've disagreed, like Goku who gave the idea to Zeno for the Tournament of Power, and would participate to fight everyone at their strongest as if their survival is at stake, and would've disagreed with this proposal. I am not sure about Vegeta or other people having pride though, if they'd choose their pride over survival.
Also, there were a few people who would've used the wish to save a few like Vegeta and Frieza to revive Universe 6 (for having soft spots for their races in Universe 6), and there would've been other fighters from other universes too (For example Cabba, Toppo, Jiren, etc.), but their stories weren't focused in detail. I highly doubt Toppo would've revived other universes, especially Universe 7, where Goku exists who started the whole idea, because of his sense of justice and thinks of him as evil, whereas Jiren's wish would've been debatable.
But 17 wished to revive all erased universe because of his humane side as he was not a fighter and has moved on from his past, whereas most of the other participants were seasoned fighters.
There are a lot more things to be noted about Tournament of Power rules though.

Zeno and Grand Priest told universes with low mortality rates would be wiped out, yet they allowed dead fighters to participate e.g. Frieza. So, universes could've brought out their best fighters from any timeline, which would deviate from its original purpose.
There were rules regarding a few forms of fighting styles, like weapon-based fighting and Ki attacks using nature's energy.
Killing was not allowed; Zenos wanted fighters to kill anyone with a few exceptions, which is absolute nonsense when it's a battle for survival, and the fate of their respective universes is at stake.
Each fighter will fight at their native gravity level, so if a person lives on a planet with a million times more gravity, they should defeat others fighting on low gravity, this is very confusing though, trying to explain this with an example here, when Vegeta and Nappa first came to earth, they were powerhouses because they lived and trained in 10 times more gravity and going to a planet with low gravity made them exceptionally faster and in turn stronger. So, fighters who would've been strong became weak due to this.
Since the Dragon Ball verse makes no sense due to the existence of Dragon Balls, Universe 7 could've simply wished Shenron to wake up Buu, as Buu was considered one of the strongest in the universe, 2nd only to Beerus.

And there are a few events in the tournament itself as well.

Caway from Universe 4 seduces Roshi and later he groped her, which was considered fine. (Episode 105)
Roshi used a bottle for Evil Containment Wave, whereas weapons weren't allowed, but Zenos thought it was cool.
Goku used Spirit Bomb, but Ki attacks using nature's energy weren't allowed.
Zenos said if the winner would've made any wish other than to revive other universes they would've wiped all universes, yet they let them live because of the wish. So, there wasn't any point of mortality rate or multiversal balance here, for which they started the tournament.

Other than this, possibly due to plot armor, no other race except Saiyan showed any growth, Goku took a spirit bomb and unlocked a new form, which would've killed most of the others.
So, in my opinion, it is most likely poor plot writing, where everything is about fighting and battles, not common sense.

point is, there is no evidence that Goku thinks that only a fight to the death is fun, otherwise he would behave far differently at many points of the story. In this case the out-of-universe answer is simple: they didn't want to make the already blatant deux-et-machina way out even more blatant.  It was evident that the Super Dragon Ball would be used to erase the effects of the Tournament, but they tried to hide it until the end. And in the process they made an horrible story telling.

A far better option would have been removing an universe at the start of the fight because the fighters weren't playing seriously after they remarked that the winner should use the Balls to wish back everyone while also planting a red herring by making it unclear if Zeno erased them because they weren't fighting seriously or because of the proposed wish. That would make 17 actions at the end even more awesome because he would also think that he is risking erasure too in order to save everyone else.

@SPArcheon, if you're referring to 'they' as an author, yes, the author wanted to hide the fact that dragon balls can be used to revive others but if you're referring to Zeno and Grand Priest they didn't explain because it was a possibility and there could be multiple possibilites with super dragon balls.

Yeah, @SPArcheon, your second point is also correct, there was a lot of room for improvement in the writing, and I also updated my answer with several details to highlight the same. Also, the fact that universes can be revived is a basic point though, as every time a supervillain comes to the story, and destroys a planet Z-fighters revive the earth or revive the population, like they did on Namek and with Buu.

some of the other added point are interesting, if you want to discuss some just find me in chat. Fell free to ping me in the anime room.

As for Majin Bu, that is not because he is strong or anything. The issue with Bu is clearly shown during his arc. The Author doesn't know how to handle Bu because he is basically an amorphous mass of pink stuff. Bu does not get damaged most of the time: he is either unbeatable because he constantly regens or is defeat in one strike because you owerpower him. He is similar to a final boss in a game that has regenerating hp and can only be killed by a ohko move. Basically, he is a bad character for writing extended battles because of his defining characteristics.

Yeah, right, Buu could've made the tournament a lot easier for universe 7 compared to some of the other participants, but it's as you said, poor writing. And I'd love join discussions on anime, can you ping me the chat link please?

Is there any specific reason behind Lum's eye color being different in the Urusei Yatsura 2022 remake?
In the 2022 remake of Urusei Yatsura, Lum is given red/orange eyes.

In the original version of the anime/manga, she always had blue eyes.

It's a well-known fact that the hair color "change" thru the original 1981 serie is indeed deliberate - Lum was always intended to have rainbow-like, multicolored hair with a subtle color-changing effect as she moved, but since it was too difficult to animate at the time she was given simpler green hair. As animation techniques improved, her hair started to feature multiple shades and a subtle color changing effect but where kept green to not confuse fans - see later episodes or the "It's a Rumic World" commemorative video. (*)

Yet, over all the years, Lum's eyes were always blue.
So the question is simple: do we know the reason behind the change in the remake?

(*) at least until the remake started to reference that and gave her different hair colors in some scenes.

maybe the same reason raiha and fuutarou uesugi got different eye colours for s2 of TQQ?

What is the name of the Doraemon episode where Nobita is very intelligent?
Once I saw an episode of Doraemon on TV, in which Nobita is a genius.  He always scores full marks in the tests.  His mom is happy with it.  When he tells her that he is going out, his mother allows him by saying that he often does extra studies etc. I can't remember the episode's name.
Can anyone name the episode? Thank you in advance.

I guess this. It is not making Nobita intelligent, but going back to childhood with 'current' memory.

@sundowner thank you. But I could not find the video. Can you please mention the episode's name, so I can watch?

Generally it is the same as the tool's name. According to googling, it is Doraemon 137 誕生日は計画的に / 人生やりなおし機.

Possibly "Escape From Score Zero" in here. I've no idea which episodes are aired abroad.

@sundowner thank you for your efforts. But sadly, this is not the episode I am talking about. It was one of the old episodes (when the animation style of Doraemon was not changed to the current style). I can't find it anywhere. Can you please name the episode?Thank you by the way.

@sundowner sorry, but it is not the one I am talking about. Thank you by the way friend.

What's the plot of 'Anata no Shiranai Kangofu: Seiteki Byoutou 24 Ji'?
NSFW Warning: this question is related to hentai anime.
The synopsis of Anata no Shiranai Kangofu: Seiteki Byoutou 24 Ji that can be found in a random anime or visual novel site is

The main character has been hospitalized for medical checkup. As nurses take care of him kindly, his sexual desire gradually becomes bigger.... "If they took care of my sexual desire as well, it would be great...." One day, he receives an email from someone unknown. "Do you know what will happen to the girls who have been sexually insulted completely?" The email arouses his sexual desire, and he finally starts raping the nurses....

But this synopsis doesn't help at all. After watching the two episodes anime, I felt at sea about what had happened. Let me write down the mysterious points chronologically below.

Ep.1

At the very beginning, the normal outside of a hospital is shown, then in the next second, it change into a glimpse of that deserted hospital, which is one of the creepy things in this anime.
Does this mean when the MC is taken into the hospital, it's already deserted?

Then a purple-haired nurse is shown. And it, too, is follow by a glimpse of her body, a dead one, in a pool of blood.
Does this mean the nurse is already dead and therefore a ghost at the beginning of the anime?

Then there's a dialogue between the MC and the nurse.

MC: Why am I here?
nurse: It's because I called you?
MC: Why?
nurse: I want you to know our true self.

Exactly why is MC in that hospital? What does the nurse mean by "called"? How did she get MC there? Why does she want MC to know their true self? I mean, why is MC the chosen one? Is it because MC has something to do with the nurse rape incident three years ago?

MC receives messages in his phone.

The nurse became like this because of her mistake. (A picture of a disheveled nurse after being raped is shown.) The people being hunted down won't change. Don't forget what happened three years ago to nurses from Himegaoka! Himegaoka hospital nurse escape incident. The hospital and nurses that have been raped left. Ayanuma Chitose, the head nurse at that time, knows everything.

Who sends the messages? Does "the people being hunted down" refer to those raped nurses? Why does it tell MC to "don't forget"? Is MC involved in that incident?

Ep.2

Right before the epilogue, there's a voice-over.

You can't reach the thing you desire if you drive it. Your true self. Your suffering is the same as mine. Your true self is my world. Are you the one who will save me?

Then MC's phone receives a message.

Are you the one who will save me?

What does "the thing you desire" refer to? What does "drive it" refer to? What's "your suffering"? How is the voicer's suffering the same as MC's? What does she mean by "your true self is my world"? Why does she think MC could be the one that will save her? What exactly is needed to save her? I mean how can one save her? Besides, what situation is she in now? Why does she need salvation?

The epilogue is the creepiest stuff I've ever seen in an anime. MC is found dead by the police in the hospital. Then, in MC's eye, that purple-haired nurse appears!
How can that nurse appear in MC's eye? Is she a ghost haunting that deserted hospital?
Besides, the last scene before the previous voice-over is MC laying in the bed in the same position as when he's found dead, then the purple-haired nurse appears before his bed, and later a glimpse of her being eyeless and disheveled is shown. Does this mean it's she who killed MC? If this is the case, why did she do that? If not, then why did the murder kill MC?
Also, it seems that only a body is found in the hospital, that is, MC's. But in earlier scene, there is a gang rape with many men involved. Where are they in the end?

Last Questionable Point
Is the name of the hospital, Himegaoka Central Hospital, related to some ghost or horror legend in Japan? This may be a clue in clarifying the whole plot. Is the story based on some urban legend?

Who's the mastermind behind the MK virus in World's End Harem?
In the anime, when the Minister of State Kihara heard that Chloe was inspecting the secret lab where MK was developed, she became stressed. It seems like it's her idea, or at least she's supported it. Also, she and her headquarters were accused of spreading MK when they're arrested. This confused me.
MC's girlfriend, Elisa, said on the TV that a manager of the company which spread the virus has become a high rank leader in UW. Doesn't this mean it's UW's plot to spread the virus?
Also, the top-tier doctors in Japan were sent to UW, which seems to imply UW had always supported the manufacture of MK. What did Minister of State Kihara stressed over when she learned that someone's looking into the hospital where the first victim was treated?

What's the first badass standing against the moon scene in anime?
Many anime use this type of scene to give off a badass vibe. This works quite good. I wonder who is the first to come up with this idea. Which is the first anime to use this type of scene?

Added Content After Edition:
Gotta edit to state more clearly since people seem to miss the point. What I was asking is the scene used to build up the typical (MC/villain) badass vibe. This kind of scene is at night where the surroundings is dark, with the full moon being the sole source of light while the character is barely illuminated. It's supposed to hype up the audience and make them say, 'oh, that's sick', after watching the scene. Just as you can feel in the pic I gave earlier, these scenes, especially the Zenitsu and Night Raid ones, serves to manifest the powerfulness of the characters. (The Luffy one is a parody though.)
Yet another similar example (not standing tho) is when Akame showed up at night to duel with Zank. She jumped high up into the sky and was silhouetted by the red full moon.

I believe this trope was first used on a Live-Action movie, "E.T. the Extraterrestrial" (1982), if I'm not mistaken. Because the iconic shot became the logo of Steven Spielberg's production company Amblin Entertainment. The trope is called "Full Moon Silhouette".

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FullMoonSilhouette

As far as anime goes, I'd say that Sailor Moon is the most iconic. But not until later seasons. In the beginning they preferred to use a half moon.
1992, Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon

1993, Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon R

1994, Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon S

1995, Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon Super S

Then there's..
2000, Zelda no Densetsu: Mujura no Kamen

Sorry, but the Sailor Moon thing is not what I asked tho. I edited the question to make it more clear what I was asking.

That's what popularized the moon in the background, though. And I fail to see how it's any different from your examples. In Sailor Moon it also hypes up the audience and makes her look like a badass. Same with the Zelda picture.

Reposting what Henkyo commented so that it can be seen as an answer:

I believe this trope was first used on a Live-Action movie, "E.T. the Extraterrestrial" (1982), if I'm not mistaken. Because the iconic shot became the logo of Steven Spielberg's production company Amblin Entertainment. The trope is called 'Full Moon Silhouette'.

This would make sense as I'm sure many people writing manga are from a generation that would have watched E.T. All it takes is one person to use it and then it gets repeated over and over. Not sure what the first anime to do it is though.

OP said "in anime." E.T. is not an anime.

It's more likely to be inspired by classical Japanese art than such a movie. What specifically is unclear, but there are ukiyo-e block print art depicting silhouette against the moon from as early as the Edo period. Baisotei Gengyo being a notable artist for the work, Crows in Moonlight as well as those from after that period

What are all the evidences that may suggest Doyakonga is Minase?
A few months ago, some people observed that the infamous Twitter account Doyakonga is probably Minase Inorin, the well-known seiyuu who dubbed Rem from Re:Zero in Japanese. As someone who can't read Japanese, I found those Japanese blogs on this matter not of much help.
What are all the arguments, strong or weak, for this statement? Please be as comprehensive and detailed as possible.

Anime Hunch and Fiction Horizon have both posted English-language articles on the controversy. Summarising their contents, the evidence suggesting Minase ran the Doyakonga account appears to be the following:

On 3 April 2024, Minase quote-tweeted someone who had posted photos of her without permission, calling them "An idiot who can't read Minase's warning". The tweet was criticized for its tone and swiftly deleted, with Minase's representatives later tweeting on her behalf to claim her account had been hacked. Doyakonga was known to have made similar tweets in the past towards people who posted Minase's photos without permission, leading to speculation that Minase meant to post the tweet on Doyakonga but tweeted it to her main account by mistake.
At the same time, the Doyakonga account was deactivated. Many believe that if the account really was run by a fan of Minase's, it would have stuck around to defend her - the timing of the deletion instead implies that Minase knew she'd been rumbled and deleted the account to hide the evidence.
Doyakonga "was known for being extremely knowledgeable about Minase and getting its hands on unreleased information about the voice actress" - I'm unsure what that "unreleased information" was exactly, but obviously the person who would have the greatest access to such information would be Minase herself.
The account "consistently praised" several voice actresses that Minase had collaborated with in the past (such as Aoi Yuki and Saori Hayami) while making defamatory accusations towards VAs who had not (such as Yui Ogura and Maaya Uchida).
Doyakonga's writing style was very similar to Minase's, and their profiles listed many of the same interests and hobbies.
When Minase performs live shows, her fan club restricts attendance to only one performance per person, yet Doyakonga was able to attend several performances, implying they were not an ordinary fan.

I heard that Doyakonga's posting times never overlap with Inorin's working times. Kinda like how L deduced Kira was a student in Death Note.

What happened or where are the seven Deadly sins in Nanatsu no Taizai: Mokushiroku no Yonkishi?
I've watched the first episode of Nanatsu no Taizai: Mokushiroku no Yonkishi. They didn't show, and as far as I could tell they didn't mention, any of the seven Deadly Sins.
What happened to them or where are they ?

The Four Knights of the Apocalypse (4KOA) takes place 16 years after the Demon King's defeat, i.e. roughly 6 years after The Seven Deadly Sins (7DS) chapter 346 and Special Chapter 6.
As of chapter 124 only two members of the former Seven Deadly Sins have been shown in 4KOA and one more has been mentioned without appearing in person. In short:

Gowther has gone incognito while protecting a village of Demon stragglers in the human world (chapter 39).
Melodias still rules as King of Liones (chapter 51 and after).
Merlin seems to have had a falling out with King Arthur; her whereabouts are unknown (chapter 91).
Bam: no update, therefore we must assume that he is still ruling the Kingdom of Benwick (7DS Special Chapter 6).
King: no update, therefore we must assume that he's ruling the Kingdom of Fairies and Giants with Diane (7DS chapter 344).
Diane: no update, therefore we must assume that she's ruling the Kingdom of Fairies and Giants with King (7DS chapter 344).
Escanor: no update, therefore we must assume that he's dead (7DS chapter 333).

Is Vegeta stronger than Beerus?
During the Tournament of Power, Vegeta did overpower Toppo, who had destruction power. Beerus is similar to him, so maybe Vegeta is stronger than him too?

As of Cell Max Arc, that is definitely not the case. Beerus was still able to toy with Vegeta as late as their last recorded clash in DBS Manga chapter 69. Vegeta powers up during Granolah Arc, but it would be far-fetched to claim a major breakthrough.

Did Light know L's real name?
In Death Note, Light picked up Rem's notebook after he/she died by writing L's name in the notebook.
Does it mean that Light knew L's real name, after that?

The part of the answer that matters on SE was given by yourself, the rest is speculation. He had the means to learn the name. Did he read the names written by Rem? That's speculation territory. (But obviously, he did! Light would never give up on information.)

It's likely that he did as he had access to the death note left by Rem, but whether he did learn it or not is not important to the rest of the story, nor it is officially revealed.

Maybe he did not bother checking his rival's name or something. I guess he saw the name, but maybe it was of no significance to him. Also, in one of the early episodes, Light says that he is terrible with names and faces.
So most probably, he saw the name but forgot it, or he saw it but it was not revealed to us whether he now knew his actual name or not, or he simply didn't bother to check his name.

Yes, Light knew L's name, however neither in the anime nor the manga is it revealed to us watching/reading it what that name is. I expect it's supposed to remain a mystery to us. In the anime, light kills L using a death note and in order to do that one must know their name and so by that logic he knew his name, even if only temporarily...

"In the anime, light kills L using a death note" - no he doesn't, Rem kills L.

In Girls' Last Tour, why is the stone cube more damaged on the ending extra panels?
At the ending chapter of Girl's Last Tour, we can see the stone cube being a little bit damaged, but on the extra panels, we can see that the stone has something that looks like a hole.

At first, I thought it was because many years have passed, but it seems that's not the case since we can still see their footprints on the snow.
Any ideas?

There are some possibilities to consider.
Time could have passed, but the footprints could still remain because it is not snowing
Consider for a moment why footprints in the snow disappear. More snow falls and covers them up, or the wind blows more snow onto them. Or the sun melts the snow. If none of these are happening, then the footprints could remain there indefinitely. Initially, I thought this theory was sunk as soon as I saw the cover and with Chito and Yuuri covered in snow, but this is clearly the result of their snowball fight in the last chapter, as it is only after that point that they are shown to have snow on them. During the last chapter, I had some difficulty figuring out if the pictures were showing snow or stars, but on pages 136-137, where the sun is rising and Yuuri and Chito are looking out at what's below them, we can see it is not snowing, so it is indeed stars. There are wispy clouds, but no snow. Also, though the picture is kind of difficult to decipher, Yuuri and Chito say they're going to the edge, so I think many of the clouds are actually below them, and they're looking at the layers beneath them.
So, it is not snowing on the top layer at any point during which we observe. Additionally, even though the sun comes up, it does not melt the snow. What possibilities can we infer from these things? Let us remember for a moment how high up the two of them are. Any atmosphere or weather up here might be artificial. And given the decaying state of the whole world, it wouldn't be strange if the weather was broken, and thus it isn't going to snow anymore. Would it be completely unreasonable to think that footprints would last for a very long time?
Now, one problem I have with this theory is that some of the footprints actually do seem to have disappeared. There should be some that go all the way back to the stairs, since that was their arrival point. To defend the theory, I would suggest wind and the sun may have removed some footprints, but that the cube is shielding the remaining footprints we see.
On the other hand, the cover picture of volume 6 does not show footprints to the staircase, even though it appears to be just after their snowball fight, so perhaps we don't need to go to such lengths to explain why those ones disappeared. The two may just not have left any noticeable footprints in the snow until they got closer to the cube.
Some amount of time passed, but it wasn't as long as we expect
We suspect a very long amount of time has passed because the degradation of the cube has increased by a large amount. But why? All of that could have happened at once, as it simply reached its breaking point and just fell away. Chito and Yuuri may even have purposely chipped away at it or used their last explosive on it (it is quite conspicuous that Chito mention their last explosive, but we don't see them use it). On the page after what you've shown in your question, we see a close up of the damaged spot, and there are some symbols on the black part. Maybe they wanted to see that. Or if it is a hole as everyone seems to believe, maybe they wanted to go inside to have a little bit of shelter from the cold.

We cannot determine how much time has actually passed just from the damage to the cube, and we cannot conclude whether it is unreasonable that the footprints would still be there (especially when you take the previous theory into consideration).
As far as Chito and Yuuri causing the damage, there is a fan theory that the cube transported them to the world of Shimeji Simulation. Not having read that manga, I can't speak much to it, but here's what tvtropes.org says:

Call-Back: Shimeji Simulation, being a work created by Tsukumizu, features a few references from Girls' Last Tour:
The first page of Chapter 1 features what looked like a wheat farm, and with Shijima's neighbours, who turn out to be identical to Chito and Yuuri, sitting at a bench on the top-right corner. This was almost identical to the final page of Girls' Last Tour's Volume 6, where Chito and Yuuri were standing at what looked like a wheat farm, as well.
Both Shijima and Majime later encounter a mysterious black cube on Chapter 8, when Majime comments about it having a modern feel. This is a reference to the almost identical black cube that Chito and Yuuri encountered after reaching the highest layer of the megacity in Girls' Last Tour's Grand Finale.
In Chapter 13, Shijima's neighbours look like Chito and Yuuri, as seen in Chapter 1's first page. There were many speculations and fan theories in regards to both of them being alive in Girls' Last Tour after their Big Sleep, and somehow got transported into this world through the mysterious black cube.
Chapter 42 has both Shijima and Majime wearing what appeared to be suspiciously identical helmets that Chito and Yuuri wore.

Though none of this is very relevant here, it is interesting that the cube is also in that story. Thus, if you want to see more of this cube, you can try reading Shimeji Simulation, and see if that helps with figuring out its secrets. Regardless of Shimeji Simulation, it is possible Chito and Yuuri used their explosive to damage the cube for some reason.
Scrapped Theories
While thinking things through, I came up with some alternate explanations, but decided against them for one reason or another. Since it's very unlikely we'll get any sort of canonical explanation, I'll include them anyway, since they might be of interest regardless of their faults.
This could be a different side of the cube
I'm fairly confident we do not see all sides of the cube, but for instance on page 138, we see a different side, and it has some different damage.So could we just be looking at a side of the cube we haven't seen?
Probably not, actually. I do not think this possibility is very likely, because we see Chito and Yuuri's stuff is still there. They could have moved it, but continuing from the preceding scene, it is very likely the intent is to convey a continuity of the same space. The staircase is also shown, the positioning of which should help us determine whether it is the same face of the cube.
The Cube Is Covered in Snow/Sleet
This theory requires a reinterpretation of the picture above. My first impression was actually that the black part was a material, due to the odd texture, rather than shadows showing the inside of the cube, and that's what led me to this theory. The cube is described as "black slate" by Yuuri and Chito, so it struck me as odd that the cube is simply depicted as white in a black-and-white manga when it's described as black. Thus, I wondered if the white parts were sleet or snow covering the actual cube, and that's what came apart. I furthermore noticed that in the picture I've included, the white pieces that fell off the cube are actually melding into the snow. And I should probably mention I interpreted the symbols as being drawn on top of the black part, rather than being glowing symbols inside the darkness.
In the case that this were the true interpretation, snow is obviously more fragile than slate, and thus it wouldn't require a whole lot of time to pass for the degredation we see to happen. Yuuri and Chito may have even just chiseled it off themselves (perhaps in order to see the slate and symbols underneath).
With regards to this theory, however, I trust everyone else's interpretation of the cube more than my own initial one, so I suspect that the black part being shadow is probably correct. Furthermore, looking up pictures of slate did actually show me some odd light black colors in some cases.

As can be seen, the shininess could lead one to depict this as white. I don't know much about shading a manga or about slate, so I'll leave it at that.

In Bleach, where did Nel's name come from?
If the Espadas were named after the architects (or Architecture Designers) just like this link says so, does that mean that Neliel Tu Odelschwanck is named after an architect too? If so, then who is Nel named after?
Does anyone have any idea where Nelliel's name originated from?

What writing system are they using in "Yu-Gi-Oh!"?
What language or writing system are some of these cards using in Yu-Gi-Oh!?
For Example:

Spellbinding Circle

Seal of Orichalcos

Rank-Up-Magic Escape Force

Phantom Knight's Spear

Megamorph

Ichiroku's Ledger Book

Dark Contract with Errors

Admiration of the Keepers

Are they just made up languages and writing systems or are they based off of any existing languages and writing systems?
I believe the symbols on the "Seal of Orichalcos" are called Enochian Alphabet if I'm not mistaken. But I don't know the others on the rest of the cards.

Looking for a scene where Jet Black applies a chokehold to a man and asks "tell me some more"
I am looking for said scene. Already tried downloading all the subtitles and searching, and also asking chatGPT, but no success.
I believe the scene exists, and is the one on the first image of from this page:

Anyone remembers it?
I watched the show multiple times, and will probably watch it again some day, but right now I am looking for this specific scene to make a meme, so an episode number and timestamp would be rather helpful

Have you tried watching the show?

What's the question here?

I do not view this question as being unclear in what it is asking. You want the episode number and a timestamp of when this scene happens in the episode, presumably?

Yes, thank you. Will add the clarification to the question

ChatGPT is pretty bad at these things. I tried to search on trace.moe but it didn't identify correctly.

This moment occurs around the 11:10 to 11:14 mark in the first episode, Asteroid Blues. For the time reference, I was using the English dub episode on Crunchyroll.
The scene: Jet walks into a ransacked saloon, takes a bottle of alcohol, but hides when two men enter. After listening to the two talk about the guy using Red Eye drug, Jet assaults the two and puts one in the choke hold with the broken bottle to his throat, and says, "Tell me some more."
I also seemed to recall this moment being used in promotional material by Toonami, and this compilation video would seem to indicate my recollection was correct: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIYX401Ubjc

Is Goku an irresponsible person, who always puts other's lives in danger?
Leaving power levels aside, is Goku if not worst, one of the worst anime characters?
To support this question, I have several examples:

He has put everyone in danger many times, just to have fun fighting.
He spared Piccolo, who was the manifestation of Kami's malice (later he turned out to be a good character), but that was a huge risk comparing Piccolo's power to humans.
He let go of Raditz and Vegeta in their fight, who could've destroyed the planet, as it's Saiyans' job.
He gave his energy to Frieza, who later came to destroy the earth, which would've been destroyed if not for Trunks.
In Cell Saga, he gives Cell a Senzu-Bean, as if fair fighting is more important than the survival of the planet.
He wasn't seriously fighting with Beerus when all of the Z-fighters were requesting him to save the planet.
He messes around Beerus and Zeno who can destroy planets or universes in a jiffy.
He kickstarted the Tournament of Power, putting the entire multiverse's existence at stake, just because he wanted to fight someone.

Other than putting other's life at risk.

He didn't care about his own family, he spent most of his life training rather than spending it with his family.

EDIT: Changed the question title (Villain -> Irresponsible) to better relay my question.

He did not let go of Raditz: he actually enabled his murder by sacrificing himself. Then Piccolo screws up by boasting that they a magical wish-granting dragon, which Nappa and Vegeta overhear, prompting them to come to Earth.

for Raditz, it was when he lied that he'd surrender, and Goku let go of his tail after catching him. That is only one of the points though.

"He didn't care about his own family, he spent most of his life training rather than spending it with his family.", well, that would need some measurement. If we take DBZ, I'd say say he spent most of time dead. He married at the end of DB, he reappears 5 years later with a son (which he has lived with), then he's dead for a year, then he goes to a hospital, then he goes to Namek, then he takes 1 year to come back (could have done it sooner), then he stays with his family for 3 years while training (because he has to), then he would be dead for good, if not for the events 6 years later.

@Gae.S., you're right, I mean for the family part, he can ask others to call Shenron and revive him anytime, but he only comes back when there's a strong opponent.

It sounds like bad judgment and not a villain

@JoeW, I am not talking about his character, I am talking about putting other's life at risk.

@Zero Well, he gives his reason for staying dead, which you may or may not agree with, but having the option to be resurrected doesn't really make you a dick if you stay dead. Death is still a part of life in DBZ.

Again that sounds like bad judgment and not a villain. People can make stupid and dangerous choices but that doesn’t mean that they are a villain

You're also missing a passage about Frieza: 1) Goku gives him energy. 2) Frieza says "Don't pity me" and attacks him. 3) Goku makes his best, and to his knowledge successful, attempt at murdering him. 4) Unbeknownst to him and everybody else, Frieza managed to survive and be rescued by his father.

Out of curiosity, if I were to write an answer for "irresponsible" (and I might not have the time to do it) by arguing that "reckless" is a better adjective, are you going to change the question once more to "reckless"?

Nope, @Gae.S., I just couldn't find the exact words in my first try.

@Gae.S. to be fair, for the most time he wanted to stay dead.... in order to freely train without Chichi interference. He later pulls out the excuse "it is better if I stay dead because I attract villains" only to not care about that as soon as he can participate in a tournament (and wonder what? they cause the return of Majin Bu). In Dragon Ball getting out of afterlife is as simple as making a "phone call" to Shenron (even the time to get the spheres has been powercreept ), if he cared he could have asked to be wished back.

Alaz, Zero, imho the real problem is that Goku has very distinctive traits of a Mary Sue and Author Pet. Nothing he does is ever considered bad, even the Tournament of Power is hand-waved at just him being silly. The other universes are mad at him... but the show portraits them as if THEY are the one at fault (how DARED Bergamo an Top say Goku is bad?). In the meantime it is kinda implied that Goku never even considered using the Super Dragon Balls to try to save someone - something that VEGETA himself had planned (at least for universe 6)

That was exactly my point, @SPArcheon

Compare Dragon Ball's kid Goku with Dragon Ball Z's Goku - you go from someone that wanted to improve himself but was not fond of violence to someone with a single track mind "fightfightfighttrainfightgetpowerbostfightfightfight". BTW, you forgot that he also wanted Golden Frieza to leave and return "for a rematch", maybe after murdering a planet or two for training. He gets shot, Vegeta comes and tries to do defeat him but since he only exist to show that "Goku is Best in anime universe" he fails and Goku saves the day again. Because Goku can. He is Best.

@SPArcheon I'm familiar with chapter 417, DBZ episode 192 and DBZ KAI episode 92. I'm unaware of a source where Goku's reasoning is laid out in the order you said, i.e. him lying about his belief that Earth would be safer without him in order to slip away from his family and train. If you have one, please indicate it to me. I stand by my point that, despite availability of miracles, death, even if by violence, is the final condition for the living in DB world, and by the conclusions that I've drawn from that.

@Gae.S. In KAI ep. 97 (92 is simply too early) he states that "it is better if I stay dead since I seem to attract bad guy". In the same episode he should also say this  soon afterward, which betrays another reasoning. Or at least he does in the manga as you can see in the linked panels.

It is also worth noticing that while he MAY think that Gohan is strong enough to protect the world while he is not there this is also the same arc where someone future was turned in hell and his son mutilated then killed because he died and could not help. And in the present era his son was almost NOT able to kill Cell alone, it took some weird "Father&Son Kamehameha" to save him. Then the same son would no longer train, with Goku aware of this (he points that out in Bu saga) and he still does not come back to ensure that the new "hero" will be able to defend earth.

That was very much possible because Gohan was way stronger than anyone else during Cell Arc, and even Vegeta and Trunks had surpassed Goku. Which also explains why he wanted to train more while staying dead. Your second image clearly states that he was looking forward to getting stronger and Gohan is there to protect earth, and there's no point about family anytime though.

@SPArcheon I must have mis-counted the KAI episode. Leaving aside for a second your personal disagreement with Goku, I think you must agree that in the source you have (chapter 417) Goku 's full statement is: 1) He believes Earth to have a better shot a safety with him dead; 2) That he is not to be grieved over, because he is going to be in his personal paradise; 3) That he leaves Earth in Gohan's capable hands, who is now ready to succeed him. Moreover, it seems to me that you should also agree that the sanity of his reasoning is unchallenged, if not agreed upon, by the people around him.

If we're talking about fiction, acting irresponsible and stupid does not disqualify one from being a hero, nor does it make one a villain. Being incredibly monstrous or neglectful to your own family does not automatically make a character a villain either. Just consider the story of the Greek hero Heracles. As we all know, he killed his whole family. He spends the rest of the story doing crazy tasks for a selfish king as penance. Heracles was considered a hero by the Greeks and he's still considered a hero now. Where parenting is concerned, Goku seems pretty harmless by comparison. He may have gotten his sons and wife killed, but he never killed them himself (not in the current timeline anyway, though the whole Zamasu thing is actually quite analogous to Hera sending madness down on Heracles).
Whether a character is hero or villain all depends on the framing of the story, as well as the heroic traits that are valued in the culture the story comes from.
Oftentimes in fiction, the terms hero and villain are synonymous with protagonist and antagonist (not always, but often). In Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, and Dragon Ball Super, I think it's pretty clear Goku is the hero and our protagonist. The story does not portray him as a villain - just a careless idiot who sometimes gets carried away wanting to fight strong opponents.
As to addressing your specific matters in your bulleted list:

Goku is a warrior and he likes fighting. These are not inherently villainous traits. Look at all the heroic warrior stories we have: Beowulf, Heracles, Achilles, etc. Achilles's selfishness gets his friend killed, but he's still considered a hero in spite of having this negative trait.

Mercy and forgiveness are not considered a villainous trait. They are considered heroic traits. The consequences of the forgiveness don't really matter for determining a hero. Batman is still considered a hero even though he keeps showing Joker mercy, which results in more people dying.

Giving Cell a Senzu Bean was idiotic and irresponsible. Those traits don't make Goku a villain. 6. and 7. are just Goku being stupid and/or irreverent too. Doesn't make him a villain.
I have more to say about the Tournament of Power below.
"He didn't care about his own family." This is not true. You could say he is neglectful, though there are some who would contend this too. I won't, though. It doesn't matter whether he's a good father and husband or not, as I've already explained.

Definitions
Let's look at some definitions of hero and villain from Merriam Webster.
Hero:

a mythological or legendary figure often of divine descent
endowed with great strength or ability
an illustrious warrior
a person admired for achievements and noble qualities
one who shows great courage.
the principal character in a literary or
dramatic work

Nowhere in there does it say Goku has to take only good actions, or that he is not allowed to take evil actions. And note that with how ambiguous the world is, it would take a philosopher to figure out what is good and evil anyway. For instance, is it really evil to give Frieza a second chance? We have the hindsight of knowing he won't reform, but Goku doesn't.
Villain:

1 : a character in a story or play who opposes the hero
2 : a deliberate scoundrel or criminal
3 : one blamed for a particular evil
4 : villein
5 : an uncouth person : boor

These ones are worth going through, which is why I've kept the numbers in. Goku definitely is not 1, because he is the hero of the story. He is not 2 either, because none of the evil he does is deliberate. But for 3-5, there is actually a case for each one that Goku is a villain.

Many of the other universes blame Goku for the Tournament of Power.
We've seen Goku do some farming in Dragon Ball Super, so go ahead and call him a villain. He most likely does not actually have a lord though. Or maybe the land he lives on actually belongs to the Ox King.
Goku has been shown to have poor manners at times.

Conclusion
Is Goku a villain? It depends on what you mean. There are some who considered him a villain for a time, namely those from the other universes forced to participate in the Tournament of Power. As you say you believe Goku is "the worst", however, I do not think this is what you mean by villain, in which case, I think we have to conclude that he is not one. We can reasonably conclude he is a hero though, as he fits most of the definitions provided.
If the question is whether Goku is a boorish peasant though, then the answer is yeah, kind of. Though he probably doesn't fit the literal definition of a peasant, he fits the bill enough that it makes sense to use that as an insult against him.

Your answer has valid points backed by good examples, and I agree with most of them. I think I should have meant something other than a villain, as my point was that he's irresponsible, even when other's lives are at stake. So, can't say if giving Senzu beans is kind or foolish.

Reading direction for non-Japanese manga
I know that this is a question leading to subjective answers, but I am hoping to find out if there is some wider consent.
My 13yo daughter is a great fan of different mangas, and she is really a great drawing artist. Apart from drawing manga characters as stand-alone pictures, she also began writing her own mangas. She invented manga-style characters and is now writing and sketching a story with them. In style, she has been inspired by Spy Family, Demon Slayer, Pokémon and the like. Since she doesn't speak Japanese, she writes her own mangas in her mother tongue, which is German, which unlike Japanese is a left-to-right (LTR) language.
Since I do not have any overview of how many and which non-Japanese mangas there are, I wonder how non-Japanese mangas are arranged, especially regarding the images and the speech bubbles. Cluelessly searching around with DDG/Google did not give me a definite answer.
I can think of three possible answers:

If the original language is LTR, then the manga should be arranged LTR.
A manga is only a true manga if it is arranged RTL, independent from the original language.
A manga has to be written in Japanese, originally. Otherwise, it is not a manga but a comic, even if the drawings are manga-style. As a comic in an LTR language, it should be arranged LTR.

Edit:
To the comment of @sundowner: I did not know the term bande dessinée. By Googling it and taking a look at the drawing style, I don't count bandes dessinées as mangas. Although some come close, most of them remind me on the style of Asterix or Les aventures de Tintin (in German Tim und Struppi), which is just different.

Welcome to Anime & Manga Stack Exchange. While this site is about anime & manga, please note that questions about creating your own manga are off-topic unless the topic can be generalized to existing industry. In this case, instead of focusing on how readers should expect the arrangement, a valid question might focus on how existing non-Japanese manga were made.

Possible answer: If you count Bande dessinee as a genre of manga, then YES/NO/NO. Otherwise perhaps -/YES/YES. I suppose it boils down to the definition of manga. This artist creates manga, presumably in English, then translated and published in a Japanese magazine. I think there are a few of others (not many to my knowledge though).

This seems to be a "define manga" question, with the points about your daughter as a pretext. The answer is that reading direction is entirely determined by the conventions of the language. Manga (very generally defined by purists as created in Japanese for a Japanese audience) is printed RTL because traditionally Japanese is read RTL, though, that is changing over time. If the content is being written in German, it should be LTR following the conventions of the language; whether it's really a "manga" or not is entirely irrelevant. Manga are not printed RTL because they're manga, they're printed RTL because they're printed in Japanese. Translations usually follow that pattern out of operational expediency, not conformance to any specific properties of manga.

I've heard rumors of Comiket pamphlet-manga being printed LTR even though they were in Japanese, so the basis of this answer being "because Japanese" isn't quite strong enough IMO.  If you had sources, maybe that'd help.

I don’t think I indicated in any way that manga cannot be printed LTR in fact I believe my answer infers the exact opposite. I also noted that LTR printing of Japanese is becoming more common, so the rumors you’ve heard are not surprising. As to sources, the question in and in itself is premised on a subjective matter, as I said, the question really is “define manga” and the reading direction is a pretext.

Manga is just an inherent style of manga, the reason certain works read in a certain direction is based on the language it's written for (it applies to their non-illustrated literature as well). In Japanese (and other Asian countries) they read in one direction, while in the west they read another way. There really is no inherent rule one must follow, so don't think too hard about it. There is no "true" manga. Manga and comics are just a form and style of expression, much like how the work of Hokusai had an influence on Western Impressionist artist such as Monet, Manet, Renoir, and Van Gogh. Don't confine yourselves to arbitrary rules, encourage exploration and expression, let her find her own style. Manga is a good stating point if she's taken to it, but it shouldn't be a stopping point if she is an inspiring artist. Manga, comics, manhwa, manhua, bande dessine, fumetti, etc are all are different names and expressions comics. It's a big world out there, so take some time to explore it. Manga isn't everything...

Why does Luffy's Conqueror Haki at Marineford not work on everyone?
When Luffy used Conqueror's Haki at Marineford, not all the people there fell down. I noticed that only the powerful ones like Whitebeard, Sengoku, Garp, Ace etc. were left standing. While the weaker soldiers as well as pirates fell down.
Why were only the weaker people affected ?

If you want to dispute your question's closure, you need to actually edit it to explain the difference. Making a worthless edit that only adds an unnecessary space, and explaining your objection in the edit summary, isn't going to help. It's worth noting that the linked question seems to cover Haki in general, not just Armament Haki; if you think that it doesn't cover Conqueror's Haki, and/or that the answer would somehow be different for Conqueror's Haki, you need to edit the question properly to explain why.

That's literally how conqueror's haki works: it's a big sign that says "You must be at least this tall to fight against me".
