No. 17 official status
Be aware that this question contain spoilers from episode 127, 128 and 130.
So in episode 127 it was shown that 17 self sacrificed in order to save Goku and Vegeta. This resulted in referee saying that they could assume that he self destructed which resulted in Jiren getting no penalty. Is this correctly translated from japanese? Hence meaning that the referee indicates that 17 wasn't officially eliminated. In the godpad he was also never removed by the Zenos.
In episode 128 when Vegeta dropped out we were only shown a part of the godpad, the top row. 17 is on the bottom row, meaning there is no official status about it yet.
In episode 130 he makes a return. Were the previous episodes made like that in japanese as well (text wise) in order to indicate that 17 is still in the tournament? Or was he officially eliminated making his current status exactly what?
I find this extremely confusing as in the past there had been some translation errors meaning that a sentence can hold a different meaning from the original intended one. As far as I can tell he was never officially removed, meaning referee and Zenos were aware of this and didn't remove him. Or are they surprised and were they perhaps unaware, meaning that there was an error of judgement on their side?

Firstly, The Omni Kings marking off fighters on the Godpad is only a formality and doesn't really have to do with a fighter being completely eliminated. The reason I make this argument is because of Episode 110. After the Spirit Bomb  clash between Goku and Jiren, Goku was presumed to be dead and there was a scene where the Omni Kings were right about to push the button, the world of void began to shake because of Goku. If Goku was a few seconds late, the Omni Kings would've pushed the button and would have to redo the same if Goku hadn't actually died because it was an error on their parts and not the contestant's part.We also know by this that a contestant doesn't necessarily have to only be knocked out to get eliminated. If he or she is either disqualified for violating a rule or dies or is in any position where the fighter cannot continue to fight in the tournament of power, the fighter is considered to be eliminated.So to answer your main question. Yes! Android 17 was presumed to be dead just like Goku was which as a result, meant elimination.As for the other questions, The Omni Kings and even The Grand Priest were under the impression that Android 17 did die during the self-destruction. We know this based on what he said right after, where Jiren wasn't going to be disqualified because Android 17 chose to kill himself. Even in Episode 110, the Grand Priest initially assumed that Goku died after the Spirit Bomb Struggle as he clearly stated that Jiren wouldn't be disqualified as Goku died as a result of his own attack. With regard to them not showing the official elimination of Android 17(ie Marking him out on the God Pad), is something only the staff and writers would know. Perhaps there wasn't sufficient time in the episode to include this bit of animation or maybe because Android 17's death was confirmed by multiple characters(Based on Goku's, Vegeta's, Universe 7 fighters, Jiren's, Grand Priest's etc comments) and there wasn't really a reason to indicate the same or perhaps they left this out because of what which happens in episode 130.
Based on my Initial Argument, I personally believe it honestly d wouldn't make a difference if they were to have marked Android 17 out. It would've just been considered an error in judgment which they would have redone. It would only matter if pressing the button on the Godpad causes the character to get erased or creates some form of restriction that prevents them from fighting in the tournament of power. As of now, it is solely there for the entertainment purposes and as a list for the Omni Kings to keep track of the fighters remaining.

Which powers/skills does Noumu have?
It's mentioned and shown in the anime that Noumu has shock absorption, regeneration and it's as strong as All Might. Are those all the powers it has? Or does it have other powers?

There hasn't been any other demonstration of their powers other than what was shown the USJ fight, which includes what you've mentioned above, so we can't assume that they have anything else. We know that they're artificial beings that have been experimented on to have multiple quirks, so we may end up seeing other powers at some other point.

 As of the recent chapter, 143, though this has not been expanded upon

Assuming you are an anime-only viewer of the series. For that "noumu" yes those quirks that were demonstrated can be interpreted as the only quirks it posses. You will see later down the line if you follow the series in the upcoming season a deeper explanation of what/who Noumu is and who/what Noumu/s were before as well as any quirks they may have and how they derived them. However, if you can't wait for the next season feel free to read the manga and you will come to understand it much faster than the anime.

Welcome to [anime.se]. It's better to include any info that answers the question directly even if it could spoil the asker. You can always [edit] your post, also to put a spoiler, start the paragraph with >!, e.g. >! this is a spoiler. Note that the Q&A here should be useful to anyone, not only the asker.

Power of M.U.I transformation
So in DBS (now that the last episode has aired). Where exactly does mastered Ultra Instinct rank?
We know that Jiren is a mortal with god level strength. And we know that Mastered Ultra Instinct matched and overpowered Jiren until it's end state.
But where does it classify? Greater than god or something? I know trying to understand power rankings in Dragon Ball is quite a pain but I am curious as to if any interviews, trivia, video game etc. Have shed any light on this.
Previously, it was established that the power of ultra instinct is in unconscious attack and defense but it's clearly shown that it's power goes beyond kaiokenx10 ssb. So now that everything is set in stone.
Where does it rank?
This is related: Power of Ultra Instinct

So, In case of Goku, just like you said, the Mastered Ultra Instinct Transformation is not just a skill but also a power multiplier which is immensely greater than SSJB + Kaioken*20. We know this based on Jiren's fights with Goku using this form and Mastered Ultra Instinct.In terms of where it stands, we cannot arrive at a definite answer but we can scale his power relative to other characters the following ways.It has been established without a doubt both in the Anime and the Manga that Jiren is God of destruction tier. At the same time, All Gods of destructions are at different levels of strength. We know this based on Vados's comment in Episode 28 where she stated that Beerus was stronger than Champa. We also know this based on Manga Chapter 28 where Beerus manages to overwhelm multiple Gods of destruction.It has been hinted in the anime by Whis in Episode 110 and stated definitely by Toppo in Manga Chapter 29 that Jiren is stronger than Vermouth, The Universe 11 God of destruction.In Episode 92 Whis implied that Vermouth might be stronger than Beerus and there exists a mortal even stronger than Vermouth,  to which Beerus replied that he only beat him in an arm  wrestling match. However, in the Manga, it was indicated that Quitella, The God of destruction of Universe 4 was the fighter who beat Beerus in an arm wrestling match. At the end of the fight in Manga Chapter 24, we see Quitella , Beerus and Vermouth were more or less the Gods with the least amount of damage on them and still able to stand. So I think it is fair to assume that these Gods are the strongest and Jiren's power is indeed relative to High tier Gods of destruction.When Goku was transforming to Mastered UI, one of the magazine spoilers the week before indicated that Jiren was going to concentrate all his power into a single punch and attack Goku. This attack was flicked away like nothing by Goku in Episode 129. We also see Goku initially completely overwhelm Jiren in Episode 130, until Jiren uses his limit breaking power where he slightly had the upper hand until Goku powered up furthur.Based on this, it can be established that Jiren's limit breaking power puts him above God of destruction tier and the fact that Goku with that level of stamina  remaining, managed to beat Jiren, makes him greater than God of Destruction tier.The High Tier Gods of destruction like Beerus cannot be underestimated. So based on my argument, I think it is fair to assume. Hidden Power Unlocked Jiren at full power at the very least is relative and if not stronger than High Tier Gods of destruction and the fact that Goku managed to beat him also with a skill Gods struggle to attain, makes him superior to God of destruction tier.The characters above Gods of Destruction shown on the show so far would be the Angels and the Grand Priest(Maybe even the Omni King's body guards considering how terrified Beerus was in Episode 41 or maybe he was afraid of Omni King in general also note: Omni Kings cannot fight). I think it is fair to assume Goku hasn't reached that level of strength. This is because we know Whis is able to knock out Beerus with just a tap on his forehead without any effort and at the same time, the angels have all mastered Ultra Instinct for a long amount of time before Goku. So it is fair to assume Goku is no where close to an angels level of strength considering he didn't destroy Jiren with that much easeSo, based on my argument I would rank Mastered Ultra Instinct Goku this way.Grand PriestHigh Tier AngelsLow Tier AngelsMastered Ultra Instinct GokuJiren and High Tier Gods of destruction(Jiren could be stronger but not substantially)

What is the Music called which is played when antagonists are plotting something?
I am not a fan of questions like this myself, but I am really curious and I couldn't find any answers. I searched through the whole OST myself.
I am looking for the music which is often played when the antagonists are plotting something. A good example is Season 1, Episode 19, directly after the Opening, when Raijuta is introduced.
It is quite fast-paced, with a repeating melody, kinda synth-like.

You may be looking for Kokoro no Hadaka. It's typically referred to the Raijuta theme. It's by Ueda Yuji.

Super Dragon Ball Wish in Finale Open-Ended?
In the recent Dragon Ball Super finale episode for the Tournament of Power saga

 Android 17 wishes back all the universes that were erased.

However, it does not seem clear which ones this wish encompasses.
According to the lore in much earlier episodes, there were originally 18 universes not including the World of Void, 6 of which were already erased by Zen-Oh long before the Tournament of Power began.
Is there any evidence to support whether or not these 6 other universes were also revived by the wish?

I believe the wish was pretty cleverly worded as it gives the show a lot more options in the future. Then again we can't be sure whether it was done on purpose. It could be for one of 2 reasons:For Future Arcs: Since we already got a taste of 8 Universes in the tournament of power, they could perhaps introduce even more powerful characters from those erased universes. Perhaps a very powerful evil villain, or a God who has gone rogue. We won't know the same until a future iteration of Dragon Ball. To save out on time/ dialgue: Perhaps, viewers might be thinking too much of it and considering the fact that there was very little time remaining in the last episode, maybe it made a lot more sense than Saying Revive all the Universes that were erased during the course of the tournament of power. Considering it had to be said twice by both 17 and the Grand Priest. As much as I like to believe it was intentional, I have a feeling it isn't considering the fact that 8 new Universes have already come into the picture that can be explored. Especially Universe 6 and Universe 11. Also, there exists 4 more Universes that didn't take part in the tournament of power which could be explored. Considering the abundant number of characters present, I don't see why they would want to bring more Universes into the picture. Then again, Dragon Ball has been pretty unpredictable in Super. We all thought Android 17 was dead but he ended up winning the tournament of power! So we won't know until release up the next iteration of the Dragon Ball Series.

Perhaps I'm being optimistic, but there were similar scenarios where the ambiguity of Dragon Ball wishes led to future events, like in Dragon Ball Z where Captain Ginyu was discovered much later, and it was revealed that the wish made on the original planet Namek during the battle with Frieza had brought him to earth along with everyone else.

@Patrick Roberts Either way I honestly don't think it matters because there are already many Universes left to explore in the series. Universe 6, 11 seems promising.  Also, there are four Universes which didn't take part in the tournament of power so hence those 4 too and if they really want more Universes, they could more or less have them use the Super Dragon Balls to wish them back again as well. So if there is a new series and they want to go that route, I'm pretty sure they'd try to cough up a reasonable excuse as to why so and so was possible.

What is the significance (or lack thereof) of Nausicaa's broken sword?
I just finished reading the first volume of Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. There was a scene that confused me in an earlier part of the book. I don't remember the page numbers.
When Princess Kushana lands her gunship in the Valley of the Wind, Nausicaa rushes in and challenges one of the soldiers to a duel (essentially). After the situation is defused by Master Yupa, Kushana asks if she can see Nausicaa's sword. Nausicaa hands over her sword, Kushana admires it for a moment and then cuts it to pieces with her own sword. There doesn't seem to be much of a reaction from Nausicaa or her people when this happens and the fact that Kushana destroyed the sword is never mentioned again.
What I don't understand is, why is the act of Kushana breaking the sword not more significant? Apparently the sword was made of ohmu shell, which is supposed to be tougher than the ceramic blades used by most soldiers (evidenced when Nausicaa chips her ceramic blade on an ohmu shell in one of the first scenes of the book). Furthermore, ohmu shell swords must be incredibly rare, considering that Kushana (who is the princess of a large empire) would be carrying an "inferior" ceramic blade. Wouldn't that sword be like a family heirloom or something?
The only explanation that I can think of is that the scene is purely intended to set up what a badass Kushana is and that Nausicaa is not upset because it is a small price to pay to get the Torumekian forces to leave peacefully.
Note: I have only read the first volume, which ends shortly after Asbel gets shot down by Kushana's gunship. I don't care about spoilers if you need them in your answers, so fire away. I have not watched the anime either.

First off, I think your instinct is generally correct: This scene is meant to establish that Kushana is a very physically strong character with excellent martial skills. This becomes more relevant later, especially when more is revealed about Kushana's physical body.
There's also truth in @kumagoro's answer. Breaking the sword is a partially symbolic act, of breaking the will of the conquered.
That said, I don't agree that "There doesn't seem to be much of a reaction from Nausicaä" to the sword's destruction. Kushana drops the sword in one panel and breaks it in another; the panel between the two shows Nausicaä's reaction, which does indeed look like shock to me. We don't particularly get to see the reactions of other Valley natives, but Nausicaä's seems appropriate to me.
I think we can combine that reaction with the above concepts to formulate the following hypothesis:
Nausicaä attacks Kushana's soldiers, and Uncle Mito defuses the situation by forcing both sides to stop.
Kushana appears and is faced with a delicate situation. On the one hand, someone just killed her own soldiers, and even though that's paused for the moment, the rest of her soldiers aren't necessarily going to be satisfied if Kushana just brushes it off with no consequences. Justice needs to be seen to be done. On the other, she doesn't want her soldiers slaughtering everyone in the Valley; she needs their manpower to handle the God Warrior egg.
So, Kushana destroys the weapon used to kill her soldiers. This demonstrates her role power -- she can destroy things in the Valley at will and nobody in the Valley can stop her -- as well as her physical power to break such a strong blade. It's an act of dominance.
Nausicaä is dismayed, but to the regular people of the Valley, that sword is a tool used by royals more than a historically or culturally significant artifact, as far as it seems to me. Yes, it's a rare object, but the people of the Valley are going through a pretty darned traumatic day; Kushana destroying a royal sword is a relatively minor incident.
All that said, this scene also involves Nausicaä demonstrating a psychokinetic power that never shows up again, either, so Hayao Miyazaki may have just been making stuff up and seeing what stuck. :-)

To understand it, you also need to think that nausica killed a person in kushana's team.
As kushana's aspect, she shoud be angry about that.
Because she is good manager.
If she is not enough smart, she may revenge like kill nausica.
But if she do it, it means the war will start between kushana's side vs nausica's side.
That's not good strategy for her because her only have small team in here.
Then she doesn't start the war.
But she is still very angry, then she brake the sword instead.

I understand why Kushana broke the sword. I just don't understand why this is not significant, i.e. it is never mentioned by any of the characters later. I thought the sword was made of a vary hard-to-get material. In fact, when Master Yupa steps between and Nausicaa and the soldier, he catches the sword with the side of his ohmu-shell gauntlet. Later he says [paraphrased] "if my gauntlet was ceramic I might be dead/severely injured". Again this suggests that ohmu shell is a rare and valuable material, even more so when it is used to make a useful object like a sword.

What exactly was Roswaal's role within Re:Zero?
I have just finished the anime, and althugh given that the show did a really good job at tying up loose ends with the plot, I still do not get Roswaal L Mathers' purpose within the plot. According to my memory, he was/did the following:

 - Head of the mansion and the Mathers Domain
 - Helped with the fight between Subaru et al. and the majuu packs
 - Sponsored Emilia for the election

 ...But then he wasn't seen within the show afterwards (for the latter section, at least).

Did his character play a bigger role that I overlooked? (Or potentially in a later release of the manga that has not been anime-tized?)

afaik, he's a powerful magician, but had to go for an inspection in a faraway region of his Domain. The cultists took advantage of this to stage their attack on the village where his mansion is located. This is why he's not shown after the events in the Castle.

Roswaal has an ulterior motive. It has not been shown in anime yet. As of now, the anime covers only the first three arcs of the light novel. His motive is fully explained in arc 4.

 His goal is to meet Echidna, Witch of Greed. This is why he helps both Emilia and Subaru.

Roswaal is one of the main mastermind in the settings of Re: Zero world.
He is The first Roswaal named Roswaal A Mathers (A = Arthur). He wants to meet his teacher Echidna once again and that's why he has been possessing his successors. Current Roswaal is the 12th generation Roswaal. He brings Emilia to his mansion and assists her to stand as an ruler candidate. He hired Elsa (Crazy Assassin) to steal Emilia's emblem. Though it wasn't revealed why (Maybe I don't know). But it might have something to do with Echidna.
He surely is a madlad

What are Mutation Class Quirks?
In one Boku no Hero Academia Wikia Wikia they mention Shota Aizawa can't erase Mutation-Class Quirks. Which are these Quirks?

Mutation type quirks tend to be irregular body quirks.
Think of Toru Hagakure's transparency quirk
.

Mutant (異形 Igyō?)-type Quirks can have a wide variety of features and abilities depending on the individual, but the common similarity seems to be
  that these Quirks are a part of the user's physicality, causing the user to exhibit irregular bodily features that generally have some sort of purpose to them. As a result, Mutant Quirks are passively active and, at a glance, are the most identifiable. source

A much more obvious example is Tsu! Her body has imbibed the physicality of a Frog

What exactly is the problem with Yukinoshita Yukino being dependent on Hikigaya Hachiman?
During the last several episodes of Oregairu Season 2 (Volume 10 in LN I think), Yukinoshita's sister was warning Hikigaya about this "sinister" relationship building up between him and Yukinoshita, and she said that their relationship is in no way genuine and that Yukinoshita is just depending on Hikigaya.
My confusion is: What is this dependency problem exactly? Clearly Yukinoshita has developed feelings for Hikigaya in the last few episodes, so isn't relying on each other a symbolism of trust? What is the exact thing that Yukinoshita Haruno seem so worried about?

If you haven't noticed, your question is actually very difficult. Firstly, because OreGairu is probably the most psychologically intelligent anime ever in my view. But secondly, because there are actually so many aspects which everyone misses unless they watch and rewatch and understand symbolism that any answer is never completely correct.
Haruno is not evil nor is she bad. Instead, she's extremely strong willed, and Yukino has said countless times she wants to be like Haruno and be the upstanding member of her family. Alas, she's not... Haruno is. However, Haruno has always looked out for Yukino and wants her to be self-dependent but come back to their family at the same time.
Yukinon has always tried to be like Haruno. But by doing so, Haruno believes that she'll never be her own person --which is true-- while Haruno has always been her dependent. Yukinon wants to break out of her sister's shadow and be her own person, but she can't do that by relying on Hikigaya because their methods are so different and Haruno can see that Hikigaya is ridiculously intelligent which is why he gets results every time.
One problem with OreGairu right now is the lack of previous information. We don't have perfect access to everyone's background which makes sense in a way as we are able to build a picture of the characters as they are now. However, it also means we don't know exactly what happened to Yukinon as a child and Hayama and therefore, some references are really just take as they are. Yukinon has been bullied in the past as she has said and Hayama didn't help her, which is obvious. However, we don't have details around these instances so how they've affected Yukinon is opinion only.
Regardless, Haruno's words should not be taken at face value. Her saying she believes Yukinon is using Hikigaya isn't correct because everyone can see they care for each other and both would work in a relationship. However, she may believe that Hikigaya may influence Yukinon in a certain way that would affect her future and therefore doesn't want that.
Like I said, it's a difficult question but the main answer would be: Haruno has been like a mother to Yukinon for years and believes it's not in her best interest to start following Hikigaya and becoming dependent on him instead of her.

Spoon feeding. There is absolutely no problem being dependent, but that wasn't just dependent, it was akin to spoon feeding.
During the Christmas fest at Destinyland, Yukino had cold feet before the ride, then she tells how she didn't know what to do, she didn't know how to act. This is because she had always looked up to Haruno, living in her shadow. So, things that Haruno didn't have to face or things she didn't see Haruno face, yet the same things she has to, she just doesn't know the right way to. There is this signature expression she has in these scenarios.
It was this same expression during the cultural fest. Knowing Haruno, she was always loved and probably never faced the trouble of being neglected or left out. Haruno orchestrated this scenario by manipulating the Cultural Committee president. She was bringing up these challenges for Yukino to grow as an individual. You see then as well, Yukino doesn't know how to act, she should have tackled the problem of being underhanded first, but she just kept a blind eye there. They were by no means a big task for Yukino but she still couldn't act and overburdened herself, but Hachiman's interference solved it for her. As I said, this is akin to spoon-feeding. This kind of dependency isn't helping her growth at all. Now knowing Yukino's convictions, she isn't really proud of being rescued this way. That + all the other times, she really didn't have any means or answers and left it to Hachiman for solving. Our man Hachiman would solve it in the most repulsive, morally degrading, and self-deprecating way possible, but this latter part has little to do with this codependency thing Haruno brought up because this part was resolved back when Hachiman requested for 'Something real' and Hachiman started becoming mindful of how he resolved things, and in fact also got them closer. Keep this point in mind, it will be useful later.
This all is Yukino's independence struggle in the codependency of a relationship in the service club.
Yukino isn't codependent though, she is a normal troubled child as Haruno said.
Now moving to the codependent:

Hikigaya Hachiman.
According to Haruno, Hikigaya finds forbidden pleasure in helping Yukino, and that he acts as a bad guy (making himself the enemy, self-deprecation, etc). Apparently, this is him being codependent. What I want to say is that the codependency Haruno speaks of here is a relationship dynamic, but Hachiman being the grand loner, would frankly be happy when helping anyone. Logically speaking, you wouldn't be helping anyone if it didn't appeal to you, I bet Zaimokuza and Saika would agree with me here, so does this mean it isn't codependency? No, it is codependency because this dynamic affected them negatively, just not the same as the usual kind Haruno mentioned, The symptoms may be the same, but not the cause.
The not getting drunk part of Hachiman is also a kind of codependency (but not just a club relationship dynamic). It's more general. He, like Haruno, wears a mask. Unlike Haruno whose mask brings people closer to her, his mask keeps him away from people. It is the culmination of all his past experiences, the trauma, the reason for his reluctance in involving with someone, the reason why he needs an excuse to help someone, the reason he deceives himself into thinking 'we are not so close to being considered friends', also the reason why he comes up with bullshit like 'a man's pride'.

Yuigahama.
Every reason Haruno says about Yui being codependent is true.
She puts up with all the nonsense Yukino and Hachiman do, she knows about their thoughts, she is selfish and wants it all, and the things she does affects the dynamics in their relationship in a very bad way.
But as I said, just because the symptoms are the same doesn't mean the underlying cause is too. Haruno came up with this another generic codependency definition which more or less goes like 'codependents find value in being needed by someone' or 'feeling happy when helping'. That's more or less what Haruno said, but Yuigahama counters it with how bad it hurts her, if doing so hurts her, but she still does it, certainly, there is more to it than just codependency.
I have mentioned a couple of times how the relationship dynamic was affected negatively, but how exactly.
You see after that confession request, there was growing resentment and animosity towards Hachiman's actions, then how Hachiman treated Yukino and Yui as fragile dolls, indulgence in shallow talk, and never changed the weather of the club room. This ended awkwardly with Hachiman's 'something real' req. I call this the conviction trouble phase.
So what's the deal now? It's the relationship trouble phase.
Immediately after that, there was just so much fluff, so much happiness, and beauty, but where there is beauty there is also beast (I don't mean Hachiman).
Hachiman tried to understand Yui and Yukino more, and certainly, they did too. Consequently, they were growing each other closer, their feelings deepening, but they still didn't re-evaluate their distances, and they still didn't update their interpersonal relationships. The resentment, dude!
Imagine having to give your lover Valentine's cookies on a serving tray, all the while you carry a pouch of handmade cookies you wanted to give him/her but couldn't. The club was going to bits inevitably. They were just playing pretend. By the time high school comes to an end, it would vanish as if none of it ever existed in the first place.
Sob when Yukino saw that fact on penguin relationships from some questionable source (joke), she thought it's best if she just left, at least Yui would get her wish.
That time during the Destinyland Christmas ride, Yukino said Haruno and Hachiman have something that she doesn't. What is it that Haruno and Hachiman have that she doesn't, it's that convenient fake persona that they both have. It helps them act what they are not. Hachiman can act like a villain. He just feeds himself that he is alone, so it doesn't matter if he does this, it's not going to affect him anyways, and Haruno is that ideal girl who is perfect at what she does.
But Yukino doesn't have this 'fake persona', so she wanted something else. That something else being 'something real' (opposite of fake is real).
When Haruno says after the prom ended, that this prom was just a consolation prize for not getting what Yukino really wanted. My intrusive thoughts at this point went on like Yukino did all this because when it's their time to graduate, she could remember all these memories for the one last time and move ahead. I think so because they could have just forced the prom to happen, but Yukino didn't want that, she wanted it to be a thing in that high school.

Haruno Yukinoshita.
After saying all this, I would feel bad if I don't say this.
Haruno is the most common kind of codependent you would see anywhere, it's so relatable that anyone with an abusive parent would know. The fake persona is so real, like when you speak to your parent who doesn't like when you reply in a way that strikes him in a bad way, so you speak in a predictable manner, and go along with all the nonsense they utter, with time it almost becomes a habit, you don't even know why you become that way, how did it start, you don't agree with it, somewhere deep down you really hate it but you can't help it, it happens spontaneously. Every other codependency thing was almost fictitious except Haruno's.

What's the right english translation of the name of Hit's new technique in the manga?
In the Dragon Ball manga, Hit shows a new technique, but it's been translated different in different sources. Some calls it "time shift", and other calls it "time lag". What's the right english translation of the name of Hit's new technique in the manga? Apparently the japanese name is Toki-Zurashi.

Both are technically correct translations for 時ずらし (Toki Zurashi), as 時 (Toki) means time, and ずらし (zurashi) seems to mean a shift or delay (based on the verb ずらす, to shift or to delay). As the technique slows an enemy's time to slow the enemy, it stands to reason that either definition would work. Time lag seems like a somewhat odd way of translating it, because the phrase generally means a period of time between one thing happening and the next, but it could mean the time lag between what is happening for Hit and what is happening for the enemy.

Does Tomura have other powers aside decay?
Does Tomura have other powers aside decay? I mean, it doesnt make sense that he can be a powerful villain if the only power he has is decay. How could he face people who fire things from a large range, people who moves faster than a normal person, he wouldnt able to make them any damage if he can't touch them. Is he supposed to be faster than normal or something? How about resistance to attacks, does he have the resistance of a common person?

Tomura- Wikia
Tomura is indeed a powerful villain, and there is a reason why he is the leader of League of Villains.
Keen Intellect:
Tomura possesses a sharp mind and is analytical, being able to quickly realize Eraserhead's weaknesses in combat and taking advantage of them. He is able to deduce the workings of his opponents' abilities simply by observing them in action.
Enhanced Strength:
Tomura seems to be stronger than his build suggests, as he was capable of holding Izuku by choking him with only four fingers. While doing so Izuku displays visible difficulty in trying to fight back.
Enhanced Durability:
Tomura was able to take a point-blank blast of Katsuki's Quirk, sustaining little to no damage.
Enhanced Speed:
Tomura appears to be able to move very quickly, as he was able to appear before Asui in an instant. He was even able to see Izuku after the latter had jumped at a speed that rivaled All Might's speed, and even reacted to it by immediately moving his hand to Kurogiri to warp the hand to reach for Izuku before Izuku's attack could make contact.

How long before the events of Dragon Ball were the balls last used?
Several lines of dialogue in the first few episodes of Dragon Ball indicate that the balls have not been activated in several years, such as Roshi being unaware of their power, one of the balls being in a family for "generations". So approximately how long before Dragon Ball were the balls last reunited?

Well, there is no concrete information about when and how the dragonballs were used before the story in the manga began. The only info i know we got is from the first chapters, where Bulma explains to Goku what dragonballs are and why is she collecting them.
She also mentions then that the last person who used the dragonballs wished to become a king and after that the dragonballs disappeared for few centuries.
Bulma found a dragonball in her basement and since nobody knew what it was, she started to research it and stumbled  on a story about them. That is basically how the story started( all this is referenced in the first chapter of DragonBall).

What's the crater in the mountain shown after Izuku talks to Kota in season 3 episode 3?
In My Hero Academia last episode, after Izuku talks to Kota, they show a sort of crater in the mountain. Does the manga say anything or help to guess what this could be? Does this have any relation with Kota?

I guess it's kind of a landing mark left my the villains who came to attack the summer camp. Will have to wait for the anime to show it, or maybe someone who has read the manga can answer this...

It's his quirk,

 water creation.

He doesn't really do much with it.

Why if Endeavor solved more crimes than All Might, he isnt considered the number one hero?
In the anime version of My Hero Academia it's said that Endeavor solved more crimes than All Might, but he isnt considered the number one hero in spite of this. Why it is so? What does it make people to consider All Might the number one hero and not Endeavor?

Hmm I don't remember it, can you refer to the season and episode number?

I don't remember the episode, I'm almost sure it was the first time he was introduced in the anime. Here in this spanish wikia they mention the same http://es.bokunoheroacademia.wikia.com/wiki/Enji_Todoroki . Close to that info, they make a reference to the manga chapter 25, but not sure if it is in there

In this english wikia they mention the same http://bokunoheroacademia.wikia.com/wiki/Enji_Todoroki

If I had to guess: marketing.

The way they make it sound, it sounds like a popularity based ranking rather than the no. of cases a hero has solved.

Actually, Endeavor is the number one hero now.

I don't think there is a clear reason stated for that, but I think it has to do with what heroes are supposed to be in the MHA world: they're not just cops, they're something more than that.
They're supposed to inspire people
In MHA, most children hope to become professional heroes themselves, which mean that, most likely, heroes are idolised, and many people see them as much as heroes as they see them as public figures.
Their behaviors, the way they treat their fans, all of that will play a part on how a hero is perceived, if he is better or worse than another hero. And as we have seen multiple times, Endeavor's behavior is not that great. I can see why some people would not see him like a great hero (Heck I'd even say that he is closer to a villain than to a hero).
They're supposed to do other things than just resolving incidents
When Tsuyu goes to do her internship, we can see that heroes can be doing other things that doesn't always involve apprehending villains, patrolling water, patrolling streets, etc etc.
Rescues is one other of the major points of being a hero, and, with Endeavor's ability (and personality) I'd wage that rescuing people from a disaster is not what he's the best at (fire isn't really suited in most disastrous situations), while All Might is known to be able to save tons of people quickly.
Number of incident, against gravity
While he solved the most incident in MHA, we don't know the severity of those incident, while we have seen him at work, and we know that he is not weak at all, he could very well have solved hundred of small incident involving petty criminals.
So in short, the reason why he isn't the number 1 hero, is because he is the best in only one area of his work, All Might is better everywhere else.

its because publicity Endeavor is seen as more dark and serious about his job, which isn't bad, but the world would rather be saved by someone who generally looks like he cares.

Did Yggdrasil players have an extradimensional space to use as an inventory?
Every MMO I have played gives the player an inventory to keep the items they find on themselves, however, I am not sure whether that was the case in Yggdrasil as it was a VRMMO which meant the players could actually carry the stuff they collected rather than having to stuff it somewhere. So did Yggdrasil players from Overlord have inventories?

Ainz at least has some kind of Inventory pocket dimension. Throughout the anime, he is seen pulling stuff out of thin air, like the potion for Enri, or the hourglass in his fight against Shalltear.

Who are these two people in the third opening of Attack on Titan?
In the third opening of Attack on Titan we see a man and a baby holding hands. Does anyone know who these two people are?
I can't remember seeing them in the manga.
Or -if they are not "real" characters- what does this scene want to allude to? I can't think of any symbolism in this picture...

AoT openings often contains a lot of symbolisms rather than actual scenes. In this case, it is only a symbolic picture, as far as I know

Yeah, that's what I thought. Any idea on what this picture could mean?

Same with the women holding the baby in the beginning. We don't know who they are.

While I agree that symbolism is rife in all three openings, and that a lot of the animations in all three openings are not actual scenes, I also think that the content in the openings tend to have some basis in reality or in the very least give us additional insight into the story. As for this image, that definitely looks like a military uniform on the left. It could just be there for symbolism or it may be a concept that is later revealed in the story.

Thanks guys. I asked out of pure curiosity. I thought that I may have missed something or that there was sone kind of hidden symbolism I didn't get.

As for the women that seem to appear at each of the openings, at least in openings 1 and 2, both women were the representation of a wall. In the first opening it was Wall Maria, in the second opening it was Wall Rose, and in the third opening, it's likely it is still Wall Rose but another representation.

Most probably. And regarding the child she's carrying in her hands... the only representation of a child I can think of are the children of Ymir. Maybe it means the woman protects her child just as the walls protect the children of Ymir? Idfk... The ending is much easier to analyze haha

@Ryota: Here's another interpretation: Eren's key (to his father's basement) has been somewhat absent. However, the first time we see Eren in season 2, he talks to himself about the key. Likely, this is a way to keep reminding viewers that the key still exists. It is related to his father, so it's possible that the image you linked is Eren and his father. This may serve both as a reminder of his father's (basement's) important to the story, and also a foreshadowing of a scene that will be explored later in the show, maybe in connection to Eren's dad's involvement with the show's plot.

Here it is in October, this has been bumped. But I am commenting to push it back up. Does anyone know about this?

@kaz Comments don't bump posts, only edits and answers do

This scene is depicted from Shingeki no Kyojin manga chapter 86, "That Day".

 Grisha Yeager and Dina Fritz got married during the rise of Eldia and had a baby. This baby was named Zeke, which further betrayed whole Eldia and joined the Marley Forces.

Welcome to Anime.SE! We hope you can enjoy and participate further on this site. Meanwhile, I decided to add a proper spoiler block using >!. Feel free to [edit] and improve it, or rollback if it doesn't suit your style. Thanks!

While that seems legit, do we have any evidence that the baby on the opening is this one?

@Ikaros SNK have some easter eggs like this in OP/ED. If  you have watched the season 3 ED, it has some major spoilers of upcoming season 4. Trust me, this kid is zeke(the half blood prince) and in next season they will reach the basement.

I am not disproving your answer, just asking if there are any solid evidence about the identity of the baby. Yeah, I am reading the manga and I agree that the ED is a big easter egg.

I'm afraid @Ikaros is right. Although it seems plausible, there is no evidence at the moment.

Grisha and Zeke seem likely to me. Incidentally, I'd like to add that we see another picture of a baby holding their father's hands in chapter 99, namely Karl Fritz (King of the Walls) and his unnamed child. However, it's unlikely it's them because this chapter came out after season 2. Furthermore, Karl Fritz wears a robe and not a suit.

Probably this is not totally explicit, but, according to this Website (and many others): http://aminoapps.com/page/shonen-amino/4316391/alerta-spoiler-primera-parte
These are hands from Grisha and Zeke.

This is the hand of Eren Yeager and his son/daughter with Historia Reiss/Fritz, could be Historia Yeager in the future. Though this theory cannot still be supported yet by the manga, but I assume that this is where it leads, the future, based on what the manga is currently potraying.

I don't know man. Seems kinda far-fetched if you ask me...

Is Killer Bee still alive?
In Boruto: Naruto the Movie we see Hachibi being extracted out of Killer Bee, and he is presumed to be dead. Killer Bee's chakra resulted in much less pills than what was anticipated. I didn't give it much thought as it was clear that Momoshiki was used to consuming much more chakra pills.
But this time in the anime, Hachibi was sucked in by Momoshiki completely in tailed beast form .
TL;DR
Could Killer Bee have slipped past Momoshiki and Kinshiki like he did to Sasuke in Shippuden, considering that Kinshiki is somewhat of a sensory type?

Yes. Killer B is still alive.
If you watch the full movie, including the credits, you'll see Gyūki (8-Tails) pulling him out of the water. As also mentioned on Wikia: Killer B: Boruto The Movie

After they finished extracting Gyūki's chakra and throwing an unconscious B into a river to let him drown, Momoshiki commented that he was unimpressed with the tailed beast's power, as he could only produce a few small red pills with it.

The little size of chakra pills foreshadow that the attempted extraction of Gyūki failed and hence Killer B lived. This is confirmed during the credits.

Killer bee is most likely alive because Momoshiki didnt extract all of the 8 tailed so therefore Killer bee is still alive

I'm pretty sure he is still alive because if he died they probably would have made it clear since Killer Bee is an important character. So, I would assume he is still alive since it didn't say anything about Killer Bee dying...

Why All Might had to punch over 300 times Noumu to defeat him, if it was the last "plus ultra" punch what sent him flying high into the sky
In the battle between Noumu and All Might, All Might says that if Noumu is made to fight him at 100%, he will have to punch him with over 100% of his strenght to defeat him, and that if Noumu's quirk is shock absortion and not regeneration, he might have a limit to how much beating he can take. After he sent Noumu flying, he said in his prime he would have needed 5 punches to defeat him, but he needed over 300. But what sent Noumu flying was only one punch, his "plus ultra" punch. Then, why didnt he just punched Noumu with his "plus ultra" punch from the begining? What were all the other punches for?

I can think of a few reasons.
Out-Universe

Its a Shonen Anime. The supreme rule in Shonen is Rule of Cool. Other than this, tropes like Special Attacks, Limit Break, Finishing Move among others also apply.
As the flagship fight of the season 1, it was required to be longer than "1-Punch". (Though One Punch Man shows it can work. Lol)

In-Universe
Since it was the battle between almost equal opponents, the 300 punches were required because,

To put Nomu off balance so he couldn't defend against the final "Plus Ultra" Punch. If it were the first punch, Nomu may have successfully defended against it. If you look closely to the battle you'll see Nomu starts off matching All might punch for punch, than his frequency decrease as All might gets more hits and finally it becomes one sided as All Might pummels him around.
Since All Might knew that Nomu is not nullifying the damage and regenerating it, the speedy punches gradually chipped away his strength until it was down enough to finish in one blow.

All Might new he had a fixed amount of time until his "Super" form lasted, hence to make it count he went head to head with Nomu right until the last moment releasing all his power in the last punch.
If you go and read the manga (and hopefully in the current airing season) you'll see he does something similar

 When he goes against All for one, he uses the last embers of One for All in his body to deliver the killing blow. Does that mean the previous punches were meaningless? I think not!

When All Might discovered that Nomu's Quirk was Shock Absorption and Super Regeneration, All Might quickly figured out that he must have some upper limit to his Shock Absorption abilities.
Thus he punched him so many times so that Nomu would've been overwhelmed by the sheer number of punches (and the shock from them) his body had to handle.

They literally explained it in the show. All Might knew his quirk was shock absorption not nullification. With this in mind All Might just kept punching him over and over again (draining Nomu of his stamina) until he was weak enough that his punch would work vs him.

Why Super Saiyan Rose eyes are sometimes pink and sometimes grey?
Super Saiyan Rose eyes are shown to be pink sometimes and other times grey. Is there any reason for this, or it's a design mistake?

To add to the answer, the eyes are pink when powered up because his aura is Pink. Hence the eyes reflecting the pink aura leads to the eye color being animated.

The coloring of Goku black's eyes is pretty inconsistent. It could be a design mistake however, I do not believe it is. My reasoning for the same would beThe Grey Eyes are similar to that of Zamasu's. Since Goku Black is basically Zamasu, Goku black's eyes would've intentionally been colored grey.If you look at even the Super Saiyan transformations, the color of Goku's eyes are Green, blue or red and it depends on the animation/animators of that episode.  Whenever Goku Black's eyes are pink, it is when he's powered up(In the sense, his aura is glowing). So I personally believe it was just incorporated by animators for visual effectThere isn't any factual evidence to precisely answer this question. However, this is the most logical reason I could think off, based on the amount of information available.

Now that you mention it I've seen regular super saiyan eyes to be blue or green sometimes. But I've never seen them red. Do you have any screencapture or link to a photo where they are shown to be red?

In toriyama's earlier sketches they were read. Even in some of the Japanese commercials for movies like Cooler's revenge. If you look at one of the early Manga chapters (http://i.imgur.com/UCm5UsX.jpg) , we see Goku's eyes colored red.

Why Katsuki Bakugo was so mean with Midoriya when he didnt have any quirk?
When a child, Midoriya didnt have any quirk. And at some point he considered Bakugo his friend. Why then Katsuki Bakugo felt threatened by Midoriya? This makes sense when Midoriya already had the One for All quirk and could be an obstacle for Bakugo to become the greatest hero (which is Bakugo's goal), but I can't understand why Bakugo was so mean to Midoriya when he was quirkless. Is there any explanation about this?

Katsuki Bakugo throughout all of My Hero Academia has a superiority complex, this is made evident by his lavish demands of not only Midoriya but also his friend group at the start. It's quite simple to tell he has this characteristic, as he is portrayed as being egotistical, arrogant and narcissistic. This kind of behavior has two spectrum's too it in character development winning or losing at the start he's higher in the pecking order thus he strikes down anyone as to show his superiority and fuel his own narcissistic traits. He specifically picks on Midoriya as he wants the admiration of his peers as being the strongest, if he picked on someone else it would be almost like saying they were stronger and he wouldn't potentially gain there admiration. Another take would be that Midoriya being born quirkless is actually kind of rare as there is always the potential for him to suddenly activate a quirk at any time, this unknown factor is a reason for katsuki to be unsure of if he's at the top of the pyramid, thus he bully's him to make sure he also believes he will never be strong.
This question as a whole is interesting because I believe there is a strong psychological meaning behind all of this that adds a whole dynamic to there relationship throghout the story so far.

Update
In the episode Katsuki Bakugo: Rising, Bakugo answers this very question in his own words. Unsurprisingly, it corroborates what I previously said. In a flashback while talking with All Might, Bakugo, speaking of Midoriya, says (emphasis mine):

The thing is, [Midoriya] doesn't think about himself. He never has. Even now, with everything he can do, that still hasn't changed. It always freaked me out. That's why I pushed him away. But as a kid, I didn't recognize my own weakness. So I bullied him.

All Might further points out that Bakugo is so willing to train with Midoriya in order to make amends, though Midoriya likely believes Bakugo has nothing to make amends for, not seeing the situation in the same way. These points might help to combat my own complaints that I levied in my answer below.
Second Update
There is an even better quote from Bakugo in the episode Deku vs Class A, when he apologizes to Izuku:

Our whole lives, I've looked down on you. You were quirkless--obviously way behind me. But somehow, it felt like you were ahead of me too. I hated that. I hoped you'd disappear. I didn't want to accept you. So I bullied you. To make sure you'd stay away. I had to reject you. So that I could feel superior. I needed to win--to beat you. And we both got into UA, where not a single thing played out the way I wanted it to. Every day, I was forced to see how strong you were. And how weak I was. Saying this out loud doesn't change a thing. But that's how I feel... Izuku. I'm sorry for everything.

As can be seen, Bakugo's explanation here still matches up neatly with mine. He initially views Midoriya as inferior. Due to Midoriya challenging this belief when they were kids, Bakugo feels threatened. He goes into denial, gets angry, and bullies Midoriya--both as a means of pushing him away (because he represents something scary) and reaffirming his own assumptions of superiority. And it's only after Midoriya repeatedly proves Bakugo wrong that he is forced to accept that his worldview is incorrect; this is when he finally accepts Midoriya.
Old Answer
This is simple child politics. As someone without a quirk, Midoriya is an outlier (someone different, an outsider to the group) and Bakugo is a bully. This bullying is exacerbated by two causes: First, Bakugo is egotistical; he is vocally conceited and aggressive; he is confident that he's got the greatest quirk ever, and certainly better than all his classmates, and he lets them all know it. Picking on the quirkless Midoriya is a natural way to affirm his superiority and establish the pecking order, with him on top and Midoriya on the bottom. Secondly, Midoriya has the absolutely ridiculous notion that he wants to be a hero even though he doesn't even have a quirk. Even adults like All Might tell Midoriya it's not possible and he should just aim for being a police officer, and kids sure aren't going to be as nice about it. Of course they're going to bully him, and Bakugo, as the top of the hierarchy, is going to lead the pack. In his mind, Bakugo has to beat Midoriya down to let him know his place. Midoriya's dream is actually a threat to Bakugo's world view, so it makes a lot of sense.
And because it's human nature, any deviation from Bakugo's expectations is just going to make him angrier and make him bully Midoriya even harder. For example, we see this during the times Midoriya tried to help Bakugo out as a kid. Bakugo gets angry, because why would he need help from a "loser" who is so far beneath him? Accepting that kind of help would establish Midoriya as having worth and would also diminish Bakugo's self-worth. And it is in these moments when Bakugo's resentment and hatred of Midoriya sprouts and grows, festering until it culminates in the explosions of anger we see during the series when Midoriya proves he actually can be a hero, and thus has worth. At this point, Midoriya becomes a serious threat to his world view, and the natural human response is to lash out in anger and keep on denying reality.
On a side note, I think this question warrants mentioning another thing about Bakugo. He's literally mean to everyone. Is there any point during the series where he isn't verbally abusive? While his classmates often don't seem to mind, he never tones it down, and he's so bad that the teacher's have to warn him that he shouldn't be talking to people he's saving like that.
A better question is why on earth Midoriya considers Bakugo to be his friend in spite of all of this. Midoriya could have some genuine admiration since Bakugo shows leadership qualities and has a cool quirk, but honestly, this isn't a great explanation. I think this break from reality and suspension of disbelief is better explained by this just being typical Shonen genre tropes, in always equating rivalry with friendship. (For example, see also Sasuke and Naruto, who the story suddenly declares to be "best friends" after being antagonistic towards each other for the entire original Naruto series. And more relevantly, Goku and Krillain in Dragon Ball, where Goku is basically too dumb to realize Krillain is bullying him and somewhere along the way they become friends.) The main themes of the Shonen genre are friendship, hard work, and victory, and things tend to be seen through these lenses. And the rival character is a staple of this. Even when they're an outright bully like Bakugo, they somehow get designated as a friend. See Bully Turned Buddy and Rival on TV Tropes, which both use Bakugo as an example.

Are Goku and Vegeta stronger than Beerus?
Goku got a skill making which even Gods struggle to master and even Vegeta managed to defeat God of Destruction Toppo in the tournament of power. Are they stronger than Lord Beerus?

Goku mastered Ultra Instinct, something Beerus can't fully use, it seems he is stronger than Beerus. Vegeta can't user Ultra Instinct at all, he seems weaker. Then again we can't assure until they fight

I can't give you a definite answer with regard to Goku, however with regard to Vegeta, the answer would be a No. These would be my reasons for the same:First with regard to Vegeta:Vegeta defeated Toppo who was a Candidate to be a God of destruction.Toppo was implied to be weaker than Vermouth(The God of destruction of Universe 11), considering Jiren was recognized as the mortal who surpassed the Gods.Jiren's official description indicated he was God of destruction tier and Whis himself stated that Jiren was at the level of a God of destruction.Vegeta in his Super Saiyan Blue Evolution form, was completely overwhelmed by Jiren even while fighting alongside SSSJB + Kaioken*20 Goku and Android 17.Jiren didn't show any signs of exhaustion, wasn't battle damaged and didn't sustain any injuries during their battle.Based on Manga Chapter 28, Beerus was indicated to be one of the strongest Gods across the multiverse. I think it is fair to assume his strength is relative to Base Jiren (Who has been confirmed in the Manga to be stronger than Vermouth and also vaguely in the anime by Whis in Episode 110. Hence, I can conclude without a doubt based on this evidence that Vegeta isn't stronger than Beerus.With Regard to Goku (Note: Episode 131, made it clear that Goku couldn't utilise his Mastered Ultra Instinct Transformation through will. Hence, I will be assuming that he's able to tap into it, either through will or being overwhelmed by Beerus like Jiren.):There was this magazine Link at the Time of Episode 129 here where Beerus states that Goku might be stronger than him in Episode 129. However, I do not think this is the case.When Goku utilises Ultra Instinct Omen, we see him being able to hold his own against Jiren but was still significantly weaker than Jiren based on their fight in Episode 129.Once Goku mastered UI, he was completely able to overwhelm Jiren(Whose power is God of Destruction Tier).We know this Jiren is stronger than Vermouth. In the God of destruction tournament chapter in the manga, he alongside Beerus and Quitella were the last 3 standing.Whis in the anime implied Vermouth was stronger than Beerus before the tournament of power, to which Beerus responded that it was only an arm wrestling match. However, this was shown to be Quitella in the manga.Since we cannot really gauge Beerus's power with Vermouth, I think its fair to classify them as God of destruction tier and conclude that Beerus's power is very relative to Vermouth(Not significantly stronger or weaker).This would make Beerus relative to base Jiren who was completely overwhelmed by Mastered UI Goku.Hence, I think it is fair to conclude that Mastered Ultra Instinct Goku and Limit Breaker Jiren surpassed God of destruction tier. So I think it is fair to assume that Goku in his fully Mastered Ultra Instinct State is indeed stronger than Beerus.

I think since vegeta is strong enough to give jiren a few good hits but no real damage. Even after hit how is Probaly blue level was barely able to freeze him. I feel if this was vegeta he done this too he could hold on to the end. Ans since beerus is a God of destruction a one of if not the strongest couldn't get trapped in hit's time cage to the end.Goku on the other hand has UI omen which was still to weak to defeat jiren.After though goku was able to tap into MUI and even the grand priest (second strongest in the multiverse after grand Zeno and future grand zeno) wanted to train goku to get better with his MUI skill.However,in the Moro manga Vegeta was stated to have a power even stronger than gok us MUI.Vegeta also clapped Moro before he abobsored his two hen man than vegeta even goku was able to hold up on Moro when he absorbed vegeta and etc but since vegeta was stated to be stronger than goku MUI in Moro arc. Because of this I think goku is stronger than beerus and vegeta is a tie.

Before the tournament of power, in the opening match/prematch, when Goku went Blue, other gods noted; "power that rival that of gods!" (and no deity declined the statement)
At his Ultra Instinct (not the complete one), even Beerus states that he is probably stronger than him and is implied in many cases during the final moments of the show anyways. After completing the form, Goku is far beyond g.o.d. level. All these are known, Jiren was significantly stronger in comparison to g.o.d. level, he is probably closer to angel level and that was before his final power-up. After that, both Goku and Jiren are surely on par and highly possibly even much beyond mere angels and possibly just below or around grand priest level (obviously this is the reason Goku can't attain that power that easily anyways, it is that much ultra-extreme by any aspect).
P.S. I will never understand the obsession of mortals not surpassing g.o.d.s/gods, in part they have surpassed them already (matter of the fact from BBZ, as see next per example-reminder), Goku even at his pre-ToP (Tournament of Power) base is ridiculously stronger to any Kai (even from Z, which are gods) and Supreme Kai etc. In fact, by the end of the ToP, Goku (yet again at his base) even manages to hold the fully powered Jiren with his energy as a shield. to rewrite this; in his base!
(I think this sums it up/sums all of the above mentioned quite effectively actually, and no, none can say or speculate that Jiren was doing him a favor not eliminating them, it was a matter of survival, obviously the scenario of Jiren becoming ultra humanitarian even over his own life + universe is not just absurd, it's plain stupid. Goku is now a being of immeasurable power even formless a.k.a base).

I think it's an absurd statement to say Goku and Jiren are remotely even a fraction close to the power of an angel. Whis was capable of one shotting Beerus, a high tier god of destruction. Whis has Ultra Instinct mastered down for over 1000s of years and skills such as the ability to bring people back from the death, time manipulation etc. Jiren was stated to be God of Destruction tier(Before he unlocked his dormant power to rival MUI Goku). Also note: Jiren was extremely exhausted in Episode 131 and so was Goku, Frieza and Android 17. It came down to a battle of will power.

If Uraraka can turn weightless anything she touches, why she didnt use her quirk to get out of the debris in the episode where Midoriya saved her?
If Uraraka can turn weightless anything she touches, why she didnt use her quirk to get out of the debris in the episode where Midoriya saved her? Is this a plot mistake or is there another explanation?

I guess she could have freed herself, but at the same time there would not have been enough time for her to escape so Midorya's aid was necessary. Can't think of anything else :I

She was in shock from the explosion. as we see when she was stuck under the debris, she is struggling to get up.
Also, Midoria acted on an impulse and without thinking and jumped in to save her so even if she was able to get out of the danger, she simply did not have the time to react before Midoria.
The scene is not showing her weakness, it is showing that the test is not as easy as we think and anything might happen. in addition, we see that Midoria acting without hesitation to save a person in need is part of his personality and not just a one-time thing and not just for his friends.

How did Kourin copy Aichi's deck?
In Season 1 Episode 6 - "The Mysterious Card Shop!", when Aichi fights Kourin, Kourin appears to have duplicated Aichi's Royal Paladin Deck.
In Episode 23 - "Fateful Encounter" it was the same in the match between Kourin and Ren however Ren was invited to PSY and Kourin had Ren play using a pre-built deck which was the same she used. as Ren noticed it was because Kourin was seeing a person's true skill as a fighter rather than the strength of their deck.
But i don't recall Aichi, Morikawa or Izaki being invited to PSY rather they found it by accident and even if they were invited, unlike Ren, Aichi had never been in any tournaments so there was really no way for Kourin to know what was in his deck via any broadcasts.
So how did Kourin copy Aichi's deck?

@Kozaky not really early days as remember that Aichi was given Buster Blade when he was much younger by Kai so there has to have been a few years (though i can't find how many years it had been)

Can dark shadow be hurt?
Fumikage Tokoyami's quirk is a shadow who can fight for him. Can this shadow be hurt directly or it's impossible because it's a shadow? Does the manga say something about this?

As far as we know, he can only be weakened by light. However, this has never been shown as damage, just his abilities become less powerful and he has less defensive power.
He also can only be outside of Fumikage for so long, after his energy is out he must return.

I saw him getting frustrated and depressed after being hit by lightning!?

Why is Luffy's smile so different in his latest wanted poster?
I don't remember which chapter this started in, but I've noticed that his smile is not as wide as usual.
It's very different from his wide, rubber-skinned smile. Now it looks more like a girl's smile in One Piece.
I know it doesn't matter much but could there be another artist besides Oda who is working on One Piece? Or could this hint to something related to a change in his stretchiness or something?
I've also noticed that he looks younger than pre-timeskip. Both of these could simply be a change in Oda's art style though.

The last poster was shown in the manga too.

The new wanted poster image is also seen in the most recent (chapter 903) wanted poster.
If you are specifically asking for why his smile would become less wide, it could be a hint of him maturing, from the little kid which wants to take on the world to the grown man who... still wants to take on the world, but recognizes that he has limitation.
Of course, this is just speculation and I doubt this will revealed in future work. But maybe Oda gives an interview about this some day...

I actually think it's simply the evolution of his art style. Your theory is tight and even though Oda has been very careful with his little hints, I don't believe that it is actually the case. Truth be told, I have not noticed any changes in his smile even in the latest chapters. As cheerful as always

Did Endeavor ever fight All for One?
I'm watching the anime series and I have no idea what happened in the manga. In another topic here I asked Why if Endeavor solved more crimes than All Might He isnt considered the number one hero . I know All Might defeated All for One (I can't recall if he told that in the anime or if I readed it online).
I wonder if Endeavor ever fought All for One, and if he did, did he do well? That's my question. If that happened that could explain why one it's considered the number one hero perhaps.

The existence of All for One is unknown to most people. Infact, the first fight between All Might and All for one, its reault and the injury to All Might is known to selsect few. Endeavour being ranked 2 is most likely a multidimensional poll, where different factors are majored. I aalmost imagine the ranking similar to how different publications rate Universities these days. So Endeavour may outahine All might in one respect, he loses out in others (Brute Strength, Likeability etc.)

There is no reference in the manga, except maybe for a tiny bit, see edit at the end of post. Manga spoilers ahead. But just as Arcane indicated, All For One is no Gentle Criminal but a serious opponent who goes for the kill if he sees it fitting.
It is explained in the Manga that

All for One has been like the boss of the mafia in the past, distributing Quirks among his underlings and himself as he liked. Not to mention that he set up the kid of the previous power holder of All Might's quirk to want to kill All Might. We basically know that All for One is evil incarnate regarding the series.

He may has no "death touch" like Overhaul, but given the damage he inflicted to All Might and

the previous power owners of All Mights quirk

if he ever would have fought Endeavor, it surely would have been mentioned, as surviving a fight with All for One is a feat in itself and requires a lot of luck.
However,

 since All for One is merely imprisoned,

it is a possibility that he will fight Endeavor in the future.

A prison break would be a typical trope for a series with super villains. (Also that way that the hero killer glanced at All for One gives me hope.) At that point Endeavor would possibly still be #1 hero and see it as his upmost important duty, as the new symbol of piece, to contain him again. I would gamble on Endeavor to die trying.

EDIT: As I was hinted by a comment, there is this one occasion starting around chapter 85

Where All for One, who was still on the run at the time, got apprehended by the heroes. This happens in chapter 93: All for One gets attacked by some of the heroes after he fought a while with All Might and tried to break him psychologically. Other heroes evacuate civilians on the stage that prevented All Might from going all out. In particular, Endeavor unleashes some flames on All for One, which he dispels with ease. Endeavor also encourages All Might verbally. He was, together with the other heroes, just giving All Might a minute to catch his breath and rescue the civilians, All for One didn't even bother attacking Endeavor. I would hardly call this a fight rather than interfering in All Might's fight with All for One.

I havent read the manga, but I found this wikia which claims they did? http://bokunoheroacademia.wikia.com/wiki/Enji_Todoroki  "Endeavor along with Edgeshot and Kamui Woods head towards All Might's location after defeating apprehending the Noumus. Endeavor reaches the location and launches his flames strike at All For One, but All For One uses his blast wave attack to swat away the flames with ease"

@Pablo You are right that Endeavor attacked All for One on that occasion, but I wouldn't go as far to call it a fight. I updated my answer accordingly.

Why is Midoriya considered a "True Hero" by some villains?
In epiosde 43, one of the villain from Vanguard Action Squad of League of Villians prevents another villain from going after Midoriya saying that his action was Stein's personal desire even when Midoriya was on the top priority in the kill list.

The disillusionment that Stain and (some) villains have of the hero society is that too many heroes are only in the business for fame, glory, or money. Supposedly, Stain saved Midoriya from the flying Nomu because he saw that Midoriya exhibited traits of being a true hero and would genuinely risk his life for anyone. Many of Stain's later copycats like Spinner would follow this ideology and also respect Midoriya since the later part of Stain's fight was recorded and streamed (making it somewhat public knowledge that Stain respected Midoriya).

I think it's because of how they notice the likeness of his and All Might's quirk. Stain's reason to kill heroes was because of his past. (Don't want to spoil anything so i'll keep my mouth shut.) Stain himself even said that All Might is the only hero who deserves to live. Whatever reason it is, he had the same reason in mind when he saved Midoriya.

If you're concerned about spoilers but think that the information would improve your answer, you can add the information using a spoiler tag, so that the full answer can be provided.

Why does Tokoyami's quirk Dark Shadow goes out of control?
In the most recent episode of Boku No Hero Academia, we see that Tokoyami's quirk Dark Shadow loses control. What is the reason behind that and what exactly is Dark Shadow?

In my opinion dark shadow is like a physical form of tokoyami's thoughts which sometimes seems like a whole new personality in itself and this is his quirk, that he can give his rage a physical form. Seeing his friend bleeding by the attack of the villian with blades ,Tokoyami's anger goes out of control and so does Dark Shadow.
Dark Shadow being uncontrollable in dark and controllable in light can be compared to vampire weakening in sunlight theory.
Since both are fictional they can have similarities.
We have also seen that Midoriya could not control his quirk at first so we may conclude that dark shadow is so powerful quirk that Tokoyami is still not able to control it properly.

Not sure why this was accepted over the other, better answer with sources that was submitted before this one.

I think they explained it well in that episode. When it's in the dark, dark shadow gets stronger but it's harder to control. The dark plus Tokoyami negative emotions contributed to dark shadow growing stronger and getting out of control. Light in the other hand, makes it weaker and easier to control. It's also mentioned in this wikia

According to Mezo, Fumikage's negative emotions (such as regret and indignation) probably intensify Dark Shadow, making it more unruly and possibly making Dark Shadow stronger as a result, albeit at the cost of Fumikage losing control; Fumikage himself stated that his anger causes him to lose control of Dark Shadow.

What is the Morocco Gate?
In Gintama episode 349, Agomi mentioned that the gate "she" is guarding is called "Morocco Gate"?
What is the joke here? What "Morocco Gate" is supposed to mean?

I don't know for certain, but my best guess is that it's a reference to a Japanese actress called Maki Carrousel, who got a gender reassignment operation in Morocco in 1972.  Back then, gender re-assignment surgery wasn't legal in Japan, so  people wishing to have it performed had to travel abroad, and the most common location for it as first was Morocco.  In fact, it wasn't for another 3 decades that Maki Carrousel had her official documents labeled as female.
I would suppose this gave the public perception of a connection between going to Morocco and changing one's gender.  Put the fact that just prior to this line, Gintoki was just chasing his own testicle and runs into Agomi, the joke (while obscure to us that don't live in Japan) writes itself.
(I found a pretty decent paper that goes into more detail on the history of transgenderism in Japan here for further reading, it's possible I've overlooked some more important details)

I kind of believe this is the correct reference since I found a similar statement on Reddit.

How can Gon be so tough physically when he’s just a child?
Gon is shown too tough for his age.
In the case of Killua, it is understandable as Killua has undergone a lot of physical torture but in case of Gon it doesn't make much sense or is there a reason behind it?

It may be to highlight the fact that he grew up in the mountains where everything he did was a form of training he did unknowingly. This could explain his insane stamina, speed  and perception of the environment, all before he learned to open the gate, or learn nen.
Other that that, I guess you could say it's some genetic benefit?  Because his father was the only other person in the entire island who single-handedly caught the giant fish, and at the age of 7 no less! Besides it may also be the quirk of someone with enhancement type nen.

I like the idea, that a nen type could manifest itself before the nen is opened.

Most likely:

Training. For example, his training to open the gate of Killua's estate
Nen type, Enhancement which is able to strengthen oneself or objects

Gon lived in whale island, which was noted for having a wide variety of creatures. Gon lived like a wolf child, despite having his aunt and older relative to live with. Due to his lifestyle, he gained highly enhanced senses, physical strength, and creature like reflexes.
In comparison, Killua was trained from birth, and has have the much more taxing training. Giving him the more polished skill sets and attributes, akin of a proper transmuter. Gon, however, is the more natural of the two, and is by far the more instinctive, truly an enhancer type.

This has been answered in the anime. The island where Gon lived full with wild animals. So, since he was just a little kid, he was fighting them and hunting to get food. For that, he got strong because he was able to train his muscles everyday.
It is actually real. In my country, people who do live for example in the mountains, they are so strong because they eat natural food and do physical activities all the time, lift heavy things all the time, woods, rocks...

I'm not sure the premise of the question is correct, depending on what precisely is meant by "so tough".  Starting out and through the end of the Hunter Exam arc, we observe attributes of:

a high degree of athleticism
high stamina
above average senses
ability to hold his breath for a long time
fearlessness, and selflessness in regards to his friends and many strangers
ability to comprehend that birds are worried about upcoming storm
ability to conceal his aura from Hisoka (natural Zetsu)
ability to heal quickly, maybe 30% faster than most people

The first five seem well within the norm of a young, highly active 12 year old who grew up in the wilderness.  If you don't stretch the bird understanding of #6, it could have just been him realizing they were worried about something, and at sea, that would most likely be a big storm. He was also smelling the storm, probably due to slightly elevated levels of ozone.
Number 7 is a stretch, at least in our universe.  Zetsu doesn't exist, so we just have to accept on faith that the development of Zetsu by wild animals is a normal occurrence in the HxH universe. The same goes for the fast healing in #8 -- it is not "real" in our world, but in the HxH world it can be seen as very good DNA.
One scene does seem to demonstrate strength beyond "highly athletic".  At the end of the Exam Arc, Gon wakes up with his broken arm, learns what happened, and approaches Illumi with great anger.  He even uses his one good arm to lift Illumi above his head and break his arm through force of grip alone.  I think he could do this for two reasons.  First, his athleticism was being amplified by anger, boosting his strength.  This is a recognized phenomenon in our world, see the Scientific American article When Fear Makes Us Superhuman. Also note that Illumi offered no resistance.  I think this was due to a combination of honest surprise and curiosity, a recognition that Gon was not a mortal threat, and the knowledge that Hisoka had already claimed Gon as his prey.
I therefor don't think Gon started out unnaturally tough.  He had a lot of good qualities from the beginning, including genetics and his friendly, outgoing demeanor.  These were not mystical or beyond understanding.  After the Hunter Exam arc, he does begin ongoing and consistent training and expansion of his abilities, so by the time he got to Heaven's Arena it would be fair to call him extremely tough and getting tougher every day.

It might be the blood. Maybe because his father is one of the best hunter. It's in his blood? Like you know how Luffy got his Haosoku no Haki at by birth as said by his grandfather.

How could Deku hit 1000,000% One for All punch when he had no memory of it?
In his fight against Bloodthirsty Muscular, Deku hits a 1000,000% One for All punch when we haven’t seen even All Might use that much power. How can this be possible?

Duplicate of https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/46793/does-one-for-all-give-unlimited-power/46804#46804

it just felt like that to him so he said it. otherwise if a 100% could destroy his hand a1000,000% would make him explode

It was confirmed by the Author that it wasn't actually 1000,000%. Deku said that to pump himself up.
This is explained in this article, as well as the image below:

To be exact and clarify, the author confirmed this in volume 9, in a page explaining that the "1,000,000%" Smash was indeed just a battle cry fueled by adrenaline.

In the last episode of My Hero Academia (Season 3, episode 8) , they gave an explanation for this (spoilers)

 According to the doctor who cured Midoriya from his battle with muscular, when Midoriya says "100%" he would be using 80% of his power that's the upper limit a person can use in normal situations, and when Midoriya says 1,000,000%, he was using 100% of his power which is a power only a person can use when he is in an extreme situation, something that makes any person (including Midoriya) being bad injured after because no person is capable of using 100% of his power without hurting itself, that's why a person can only use 80% of his power in normal situations for not hurting his own body

How did Homura able to return to a past where Madoka isn't already a Magical Girl?
I just finished watching Puella Magi Madoka Magica and its movie, Rebellion. And there's something that's been bugging me.
On episode 10, Homura's past was shown, and I will re-iterate it so you can understand my question.
Loop 1:
She was still a timid and shy girl, with her hair tied on braids and with glasses. She was then shown to almost become a victim of a witch if not for Madoka and Mami showing up, saving her as Magical Girls. Fastforward, Madoka and Mami were both killed at the battle of Walpurgisnacht and Homura decided to become a Magical Girl too, with a wish to go back in time when she met Madoka, but this time, she will be the one to protect her.
Loop 2: Time did return to the past and upon introduction of her by the teacher, she showed the Magical Girl's ring immediately to them, making Madoka and Mami surprised that there's a new Magical Girl. Fast forward, on the battle of Walpurgisnacht, she witnesses Madoka turn into a witch and realized that Kyubey has been deceiving all Magical Girls.
Loop 3: Homura went back to time and befriends with them again, so that she can warn them of Kyubey's deceit but to no avail. Until Sayaka became a witch too, and they had no choice but to kill her. Mami killed Kyoko as well then attempted to kill Homura, but was stopped and killed by Madoka. Homura and Madoka fought on the battle of Walpurgisnacht. They were both defeated and their Soul Gems are depleting, but Madoka gave a Grief Seed to Homura's Soul Gem, begging her to go back in time again and keep her from being fooled by Kyubey. Then she asked Homura to kill her before she can become a witch.
Loop 4: This is where Homura was convinced that no one will believe her story of the future and the deception and so she tries to prevent it, making her personality more aloof and cold, but stronger.
What I don't understand now is how Homura was able to go back to past where Madoka isn't a Magical Girl yet. See, on those first 3 loops, Madoka is already a Magical Girl. If her wish has something to do with it (returning to the past being Madoka's protector), she could've returned to Loop 2 with Madoka not yet a Magical Girl. I wouldn't think that Madoka's pleads to Homura has something to do with it on Loop 3 (preventing her to be fooled by Kyubey) since she's already a Magical Girl, thus, have already made her wish.
So, I don't understand how can she return to a changed past with a changed Madoka, cause as far as I know, she's the only character possible of change inside her looping timeline. Or am I wrong? Is there any explanation to this?

This is because the date in which Homura returns to is actually before Madoka contracts with Kyubey
Looking at the Timelines Wiki page we see that it's estimated that Madoka makes the contract a couple of days after Homura would wake up in the hospital.
while the wiki page says that the dates shouldn't be taken as canon we can make the assumption that this is close to being correct as we see in the Hospital on Homura's Calander.

according to the wiki

The calendar we see in Homura's hospital room reads "leaving hospital" on Wednesday the 16th and "going to school" on Friday the 25th. March has 31 days with the 25th falling on a Friday in 2011, and is the only such month in 2011.

In the 4th Timeline shown in Episode 10 (the timeline after the one Homura shoots Madoka's soul gem at her request) we see Homura appear in Madoka's window warning her while holding a dead Incubator.
at the end of the 3rd Timeline we also get an indication of this in what Madoka asks of Homura

Madoka: Sorry, I lied. I guess I still have one left.
Homura: But why?! You should've used it!
Madoka: It's better this way. I want you to do something that I couldn't do. You can go back in time, right, Homura? You can go back and change everything... so that we don't end up like this...
Homura: Okay...?
Madoka: Then save me from being stupid, from getting tricked. Don't let Kyubey fool me again.
Homura: I swear I'll save you! I'll do whatever it takes to keep you safe! I'll come back again and again and again! I'll save you! I swear!

this would indicate that at some point in the third Timeline Homura had told the other girls (or at least Madoka) that she could go back in time, not just freeze it like they would have seen. Madoka also seems to imply that she knows Homura can travel back to a point in time before she made the contract which i would see coming up in the conversation.
Since Homura's return point in the past is always the same, this would indicate that between Homura's release from hospital (when she wakes up) and when she'll transfer to school is when Madoka makes the contract as such in the 4th Timeline and beyond that Homura would intercept any Incubator who would try to trick Madoka

I see. I think I missed that the calendar was shown and wasn't able to analyze it. Thanks a lot for the explanation. I think the date between Homura's release and her school transfer was when Madoka made her wish to save a cat. Lol.

Likewise, in the second timeline, when she is rescued by Madoka and Mami, Madoka tells her she's only been a magical girl for a week. This is after Homura has been in school for a few days (she goes to gym class, has difficulty solving a question). If she wakes up in the hospital a week and a half before she starts her first day of school, Madoka won't have become a magical girl for at least a few days if not longer from the starting point; more than enough time for Homura to intervene and protect her from Kyubey.

How was Future Okabe sure that Kurisu's death wasn't a convergence point that would inevitably happen?
We saw in the VN that when Okabe tried to completely isolate Mayuri from danger, she would simply die of a heart attack. So why was future Okabe so sure that it was possible to save Kurisu? Her death could very well have been a convergence point like in Mayuri's case.

HEAVY STEINS;GATE 0 SPOILERS, IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE VN, DON'T READ THIS!
The answer is not that simple, but here it is in a nutshell:

 In the story of 0, Okabe somehow finds himself in 2036. But, as we know, in the Beta attractor field, he was supposed to die in 2025 no matter what. So, him being in 2036 shouldn't be possible at all. However, after being endlessly tortured by a certain someone, he essentially became brain dead. Later, Daru got hold of Okabe's body, which was still functioning. Without letting anyone find out, Daru and a few other labmems maintained Okabe's body in a hidden facility all the way to the point where they could find Okabe's digitized memories that were saved before. The memories were found in 2036 and loaded back into Okabe's body. Okabe was able to walk the (very much destroyed) earth in 2036. He was alive.

So, THE WORLD WAS DECEIVED. And this is why Okabe knew Kurisu could be saved:

 he himself was alive when he was destined to die years before.

That meant that there was a way to save Kurisu, too. Daru deceived the world, so Okabe decided that he will deceive the world, too.

There is also another important thing: Kurisu death/survive is a big turning points that generate alpha and beta world lines, but from Okabe point of view he only see Kurisu in a pool of blood and than he travel to the alpha world line. That's the main difference between Mayuri and Kurisu... with Mayuri he experience the consequence (Mayuri death) in the alpha world line (so it would not be able to avoid it), with Kurisu he travel back to beta world line where Kurisu death is already decided but

he can go back to the turning point and change the fact that he did not experience first hand (since he was in the alpha world line). The only thing that should remain the same is the experience from the Okabe point of view (he cannot change the past or it will go back to the alpha world line) but Okabe did not experience Kurisu death. The world can be deceived not by changing the consequence but by changing the way something happens, Kurisu was "in a pool of blood", Mayuri was "dead" you cannot change those but you can change how.

Deceiving the world can only be done in the beta attractor field because the time machine is complete there. There would be no way to save Mayuri because the time machine can only go to the past. That's why the S;G worldline is still in the 1.00+ (beta attractor field)

Actually, I think Mayuri's death in the alpha world lines is actually pretty important for the world since it became Okabe's reason for firing up resistance against SERN and that makes Daru too and with that, Barrel Titor's time machine was born.

Kurisu was not subject to Mayuri's Dilemma.
Your argument only holds if you assume it would be a convergent point, but Okabe knows more than you about this situation, especially the future one, as he has thought a lot about it. Thus he managed to deduce that it wasnt a convergent point.

That was my question really, How did he know it wasn't a convergence point? It seems that convergence points are random like in Mayuri's case she didn't have to die for SERN to build a time machine. All they had to do was knock her unconscious and Kidnap the other lab members
