[ { "body": "\n\nAs you've said, this happened in the past, 500 or so years before Nanami was\neven born. So why should it be odd for him to care for another woman besides\nNanami? It doesn't seem an odd situation to me.\n\nBut odd you should ask this question, because the spoiler answer is: Yes, it\nis Yukiji whom he was carrying for in the past, and actually, no, he can't\nentirely tell her and Nanami apart. As implied by the fact that the Dragon\nKing's eye was in Nanami's body in the present, Nanami is Yukiji's descendent,\nand looks quite a bit like her.\n\nBut furthermore, further along in the manga, Nanami goes again into Tomoe's\npast in order to learn about him (for reasons I won't go into here.) After\nhaving seen him with Yukiji in the past, she knows that he believed himself in\nlove Yukiji, and so she tries to not interfere with his relationship with\nYukiji. It turns out that Yukiji hated youkai, and Nanami ends up saving\nTomoe's life when Yukiji refuses. In order to not interfere, Nanami tries to\nhide herself and tells people to tell Tomoe it was Yukiji that saved him. So,\nhe had in fact fallen in love with Nanami, but due to misdirection, thought it\nwas Yukiji. It's implied on some level he's aware that they are actually\ndifferent women, as he seems a little confused when they act differently.\n\n", "comment_count": 3, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2018-06-20T16:34:48.673", "id": "47508", "last_activity_date": "2018-06-20T16:34:48.673", "last_edit_date": null, "last_editor_user_id": null, "owner_user_id": "3734", "parent_id": "47506", "post_type": "answer", "score": 1 }, { "body": "\n\nI would say the lady with Tomoe during the period he went to get the dragon\neyes was Nanami.\n\nYukiji has black hair, but the lady with Tomoe had brown hair.

Perhaps they just wanted\ncompanions and entertainment the angels couldn't provide, and created\nuniverses so that they might produce such beings, and universes that seem\nincapable of doing so can be discarded. Perhaps it is all just a form of\nentertainment, as we have at times seen the Kings of All acting bored and\nwanting something interesting to happen.

[ { "body": "\n\nMy theory is that Kihara Amata indeed bluffs and in reality he actually\nimplanted some subtle bug (perhaps activated by a particular soundwave as IIRC\nAmata mentions something about soundwaves) in Accelerator's power while he\ndeveloped/researched it. We may ask why he did not just implant a bug which\nallowed him to disable Accelerator's powers all together and possible answer\nto that is that Amata could only create a bug subtle enough for Accelerator to\nnot notice while using his ability and the bug could be only extended as far\nas to bypass Accelerator's redirection shield on contact and his \"wind-based\npowers\". This is the only explanation I can come up with which may be in-verse\nwithout just damping it on the authors despair to make a match for Accelerator\nand thus include PIS in his story, though even then I think my theory might be\na bit far fetched considering that it's never mentioned again in the anime and\nas far as I read Toaru wiki, in the source material as well in any form. I\nadmit this might be the only possible theory in-verse.\n\n", "comment_count": 0, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2018-06-23T14:23:04.850", "id": "47549", "last_activity_date": "2018-07-20T11:33:23.250", "last_edit_date": "2018-07-20T11:33:23.250", "last_editor_user_id": "41243", "owner_user_id": "41243", "parent_id": "47547", "post_type": "answer", "score": 0 }, { "body": "\n\nIncidentally, there's a wikia page for this technique. The fans call it the\n[Kihara Counter](https://toarumajutsunoindex.wikia.com/wiki/Kihara_Counter).\n\nAs far as I can tell, the explanation is meant to be taken at face value.\nLater on in the light novels, other people have attempted to replicate the\ntechnique (or at the very least, demonstrated the potential to replicate the\ntechnique) with varying levels of success.\n\nFor example, in volume 19, chapter 3, part 8, Sugitani manages to land a hit\non Accelerator using this technique, although he injures his hand in the\nprocess because his execution of the technique isn't perfect.\n\nWandering more into speculation territory...\n\nThis technique does seem a bit farfetched. However, I don't think the\ntechnique involves any light speed shenanigans. Both Kihara and Sugitani are\nhumans without any special augmentations, as far as I can tell (although\nSugitani does happen to be a ninja), so the technique ought to be achievable\nusing human-level reflexes and speed (or thereabouts).\n\nKeep in mind that although Accelerator's passive reflection may seem\nstraightforward (just reflect all the things, right?) there is lots of\ncomplexity to it that leaves it vulnerable to exploitation. Let's review the\ndetails of [his passive reflection\nability](https://toarumajutsunoindex.wikia.com/wiki/Accelerator_\\(ability\\)#Redirection):\n\n 1. His ability can reverse any oncoming vector that comes towards the field.\n 2. His ability acts passively and automatically. In other words, his ability can reflect high velocity projectiles such as bullets that he obviously could not consciously react to.\n 3. He subconsciously establishes a filter that analyzes everything as harmful or not. This filter reflects any harmful things.\n 4. His filter allows certain non-harmful things to pass through out of convenience. This includes gravity, air, pressure, light, heat, and sound.\n\nThe main vulnerability here is his harmful/not harmful filter. If his filter\ndoesn't recognize the projectile as harmful, then it will get through. For\nexample, Teitoku's Dark Matter wings manage to bypass Accelerator's\nredirection during their fight in volume 15 because Accelerator's filter\ndoesn't recognize the exotic matter.\n\nIf you think about it, all of the harmful vectors that his ability reflects\nare incoming vectors. Bullets that go right toward him. UV rays that go right\ntowards him. Shockwaves, explosion fronts, and so on that all go directly\ntowards him. As a result, Accelerator's harmful/not harmful filter is probably\nvery good at recognizing these sorts of threats.\n\nHowever, a punch that goes right towards him and then _stops_ right on the\nedge of his AIM field and then _reverses_ is a very unusual edge case. I doubt\nhis filter has much experience with vectors that follow this pattern. As a\nresult, it's not implausible his subconscious filter would misclassify the\nfist as \"not harmful\" and then perhaps \"harmful\" again when the hand suddenly\nbegins to accelerate in a reverse direction, and then perhaps get confused\nwith the outgoing direction and cause it to reflect inwards.\n\nIf you're familiar with neural networks, there are lots of models these days\nthat approach superhuman performance in various classification tasks, such as\nthe [ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition\nChallenge](http://karpathy.github.io/2014/09/02/what-i-learned-from-competing-\nagainst-a-convnet-on-imagenet/). However, it easy to construct adversarial\ndata inputs that fool the classifier (for example, see [High Confidence\nPredictions for Unrecognizable Images](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1412.1897.pdf)\nand [One Pixel Attack Defeats Neural\nNetworks](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SA4YEAWVpbk)).\n\nIn a similar vein, with Kihara knowing what he does about Accelerator's\npowers, I think it's quite plausible that with enough computing power, Kihara\ncould figure out an adversarial vector sequence that could fool Accelerator's\nharmful/not harmful filter. Or indeed, as [Moe Epo's\nanswer](https://anime.stackexchange.com/a/47549) suggests, it's also a\npossibility that Kihara implanted the bug/exploit intentionally.\n\nHowever, it should be noted that once Accelerator figures out the exploit, he\ncan easily adjust his calculations to take that into account. He has indeed\ndone so with Dark Matter during his battle against Teitoku in volume 15.\n\n", "comment_count": 3, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2018-06-23T16:14:53.050", "id": "47550", "last_activity_date": "2018-06-23T16:21:21.023", "last_edit_date": "2018-06-23T16:21:21.023", "last_editor_user_id": "18352", "owner_user_id": "18352", "parent_id": "47547", "post_type": "answer", "score": 2 }, { "body": "\n\nAmata is pulling off a [Supertask](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supertask)\nhere.

The Wikipedia page for\n[Team Shanghai Alice](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Team_Shanghai_Alice),\nwhich is licensed under [CC-BY-SA\n3.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/) terms, notes:\n\n> The name \"Team Shanghai Alice\" was chosen to fit the overall theme of the\n> Touhou games. \"Shanghai\", in ZUN's mind, is a multicultural city where the\n> East and the West meet.\n\n \nThere are many examples of western cultural influence in the series. Marisa is\nvery much a western style witch, Alice Margatroid is supposed to be the same\nAlice from _Alice in Wonderland_ , and one of her theme songs is doll maker of\nbucuresti, where bucuresti is an alternative name for Burachest in Romania. He\nmakes references to the moon landing when the Lunarians are involved:\nImperishable Night has a song entitled Voyage 1969, and Clownpiece's costume\nvery much resembles an american flag. Japan has no native folklore regarding\nvampires as we know them, like Remilia or Kurumi. Recently, in Forbidden\nScrollery there was even a chupecabra.\n\nSomething else that needs to be noted is that Touhou means _Eastern_ and\nAmusement Makers also made some [Seihou\nproject](https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Seihou_Project) games, where Seihou\nmeans Western. The Windows era designs of Marisa and Reimu are first shown in\nthe Seihou games, where the characters made cameo appearances as extra stage\nbosses.\n\nIn the music rooms for the games, Zun sometimes comments on how certain songs\nseem distinctly Japanese to him, and [in Lotus Land Story's music\nrooms](https://touhou.fandom.com/wiki/Lotus_Land_Story/Music) he comments\nabout how he was trying to make the pieces feel western. [In the Music Room\ndescription of Song of the Night Sparrow for Imperishable\nnight](https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Imperishable_Night/Music), Zun comments\nthat it was supposed to be a blend of eastern and western styles.\n\nUnfortunately, the closest I can personally find to Zun himself explaining it\nat present moment comes to commenting on this is in [Afterword Correspondence\nVol. 1 for Embodiment of the Scarlet\nDevil](https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Embodiment_of_Scarlet_Devil/Music),\nwhere he acknowledges that his music used to follow the format, but any reason\nwhy is omitted from that observation. However, in consideration of these\nfacts, I think it is reasonable to assume it was done to give the games a\nsomewhat western feeling to them by blending eastern and western languages, to\nmatch the original theme.\n\n", "comment_count": 0, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2019-07-25T14:15:34.987", "id": "53743", "last_activity_date": "2019-07-25T14:15:34.987", "last_edit_date": null, "last_editor_user_id": null, "owner_user_id": "32564", "parent_id": "47611", "post_type": "answer", "score": 3 }, { "body": "\n\nZun haven't explicitly mention this but it is obvious that the titles should\ncontain japanese characters since the actual development of the touhou project\nwas based on the premise that there were few games based on japanese folklore\nat the time (I was looking for the interview where he said this but couldn't\nfind it).

The part before the quotation marks says \"this attack\n> fits into this particular genre,\" and the part inside says \"this is the\n> attack's name.\" That's the format I used to come up with names when I was\n> starting out. The left-hand part is the category of attack, so there's quite\n> a lot of Spell Cards that share a single term. Like, \"this is what kind of\n> attack this is\".

This attack is so\n> special that it doesn't fit into any category!\" The name given to a card\n> serves as part of its dramatic impact as well, after all. I named a lot of\n> cards like this too, but honestly, I don't even know what the rules are\n> supposed to be anymore.

This means that she could\nideally heal any person from any possible mortal damage because her ability\ncan simply reverse the persons body back to a time before such an injury was\nsustained (just like she did with Midoriya Izuku). **_So its possible for her\nto heal the injuries that All might got from various villains._**\n\nThe complicated part is If she can restore All might back to a time where he\npossessed One for all. Before I start with how that question can be answered,\nwe need to understand the concept of paradoxes. Time moves linearly and is\nusually unchangeable, but in Eri's case, her ability affects time very subtly,\nEri can take someones body back to any point before they were born, **and in a\nway, that is a \"time-related ability\"**.\n\nUsually, time related abilities cause a ripple effect which I personally named\nas \"Time relapse\" (the consequent result of an action due to its own distinct\ntime difference). However, Eri's\n\"[Rewind](http://bokunoheroacademia.wikia.com/wiki/Rewind)\" does not trigger a\n\"Time relapse\" and that either shows that:\n\n[code]\n\n (1) The complete nature of her quirk is still unknown\n Or (2) The mangaka has not completely thought up those aspects as of now.\n or (3) I'm just way overthinking things lol!\n \n[/code]\n\n[Paradoxes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandfather_paradox#Variants) are\nlogical possibilities which create apparent contradictions towards already\nknown facts.

If Eri reversed All might's body back to a time where he has [One for\nall](http://bokunoheroacademia.wikia.com/wiki/One_For_All) then that would\nmean that there are 2 torch bearers of one for all.

One For All is not part of the body! It is an entity of power used by one individual at one time! While there is a genetic marker used to transfer this power, anyone could steal it at any point if it was just a DNA thing.

As a matter of\na fact, the whole of Konoha's high ranks were suspicious of them since the\n[Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's Attack](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Nine-\nTailed_Demon_Fox%27s_Attack \"Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's Attack\"), because their\nSharingan was the only thing capable of \"controlling\" the fox.\n\nYou suggested that Fugaku could convince The Third Hokage to take down Danzö,\nbut that has absolutely no feasibility, since Danzö was one of Hiruzen's most\ntrusted counselor and his loyalty to the village was demonstrably great. And\nalso, Fugaku had no knowledge of Konoha's plan to wipe out the Uchiha, he just\nknew they were being segregated.\n\nObito also couldn't do anything beacause he didn't want to. You need to take\ninto account that Obito, under Madara's strong influence, **wanted** to wipe\nout the Uchiha. Madara had a grudge against the current clan because he felt\nbetrayed when they wanted to stop the battles against the Senju.\n\nIn the manga, Fugaku was the prime idealizer of the clans coup d'état, and\nwasn't just \"going with\" the majority of the clan. He also doesn't have the\nMangekyö Sharingan, nor did anyone else besides Itachi and Shisui at that\ntime. Well, Tobi had it, but he wasn't a de facto clan member at that point of\nthe story anymore.\n\nNow, the slaughter probably _wasn't_ necessary to end the conflict with the\nUchiha. Maybe not isolating them to a section of the village would be a better\noption, but that's speaking in real world terms. The manga (and by extension,\nthe anime) shows the Uchiha clan as being cursed with hate. Their döjutsu is\nbased on [chakra mixed with hate](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Curse_of_Hatred\n\"Curse of Hatred of the Uchiha\"), and based on those premisses, they were\nbound to be distrustful, angry and power hungry, so maybe there wasn't much of\na choice.\n\n", "comment_count": 0, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2018-07-12T13:26:22.243", "id": "47805", "last_activity_date": "2018-07-12T13:26:22.243", "last_edit_date": null, "last_editor_user_id": null, "owner_user_id": "22922", "parent_id": "47687", "post_type": "answer", "score": 2 } ]

Note: This was even after seeing Vegeta fight Beerus(Who surpassed SSJ3 Goku) and also taking into consideration his power as Ultimate Gohan and even all the Buu saga characters.\n * One can easily conclude the Battle of Gods arc Vegito would be substantially stronger in comparison to the Buu saga Vegito who easily manhandles Buuhan and once Goku turned SSJG, he thought he had a chance against Beerus making it even stronger.\n\nOne would ask why Xeno Goku doesn't utilize that form over the SSJ4 form.\nHowever, it has been established that one would require special training(Goku\nand Vegeta with Whis, Toppo with Marcarita), to master the usage of this\ndivine ki.

Vegeta didn't really go all out or actually attempt to fight Goku. Once Cumber took control of Goku, he immediately attacked Vegeta and then went after Mai.\n * When Fu sees Cooler, he makes a statement claiming that he was weaker than his brother and Frieza has evolved further. This triggers cooler and he ends up transforming to his Golden form and at the same time was also enraged when he began to fight Goku and overwhelm him. So it is fair to assume that he was fighting a lot more seriously.\n\nWe have seen Vegeta get triggered in a similar fashion multiple times and\nraise his Ki even furthur when enraged and begins to overwhelm his oppoent.\nSome examples would be the Final Flash against Perfect Cell, Jiren and even\nagainst Toppo. Even in the anime, when Kale attains gets her Bereserker form,\nshe effortlessly walked through SSJB Goku's Kamehameha and grabbed him with\nease. Goku at this time wasn't really fighting seriously, just like Vegeta in\ncase of this chapter. \nHence, I think it is unfair to conclude Golden Cooler is superior to SSJB\nVegeta.

[ { "body": "\n\nThere's a comment misinterpretation made by a lot of people with regard to\n_Hit_ in terms of power. While Hit is a very strong character and in terms of\nraw power is only second to Kefla in Universe 6, at the same time, Hit does\nnot have the same level of raw power and toughness displayed by characters\nlike SSJB Goku, SSJB Vegeta, Golden Freiza, and Base Toppo (Note: Jiren is way\ntoo strong to be compared to Hit). At the same time, Hit is considered to be a\nLegendary Assasin who is 1000's of years old and also an experienced Martial\nartist.\n\nUnlike the previous series, Dragon Ball Super has laid emphasis on other\nfactors such as strategy and technique, rather than pure power.\n\n * One good example for the same is in ROF arc where Golden Freiza has the upper-hand in terms of Raw power but ends up losing to Goku on account of his strategy where he managed to tire Freiza.\n * If you watch the fight between Hit and SSJB Vegeta, Hit clearly overwhelms SSJB Vegeta without even fighting seriously. Base Goku on the other hand, catches Hit off guard and lands a few blows on him and forces him to fight seriously. This obviously doesn't imply Base Goku is stronger than SSJB Vegeta. Goku managed to figure out Hit's timeskip and counter it\n * When SSJB Goku began to overwhelm Hit and he powered up, Goku stated that Hit's attacks hadn't become stronger. However, Hit managed to increase the speed of his time skip and made it impossible for Goku to counter.\n * Goku Hence required to use SSJB + Kaioken * 10 to outspeed Hit and knock him out. Before Goku uses his final blow on Hit, Hit stated that he managed to increase the speed of his timeskip again and evade Goku's attack. Hit never really used a powerful attack of his own or took the attack head on and Got back up, like Jiren, Goku, Vegeta, Toppo and Freiza.\n\nA part of your questions asks whether Hit got weaker. This is a definite no.\nWe know this as Goku himself stated that Hit was a lot stronger compared to\nthe Hit in the Universe 6 vs 7. This was because he was free to use his\nassassination techniques which he couldn't use in the Universe 6 vs 7\ntournament on account of the rules. In this match, you can see Goku barely\nlands any attacks on Hit as he mainly uses stealth throughout the course of\nthe fight and hides in a different dimension spawning clones and was landing\non heavy blows on Goku(He even landed a punch on Goku which more or less\nKilled him). Goku on the other hand, managed to end the match as a stalemate\nlanding 1 power Kamehameha by breaking through Hits personal dimension. This\nshows Goku's raw power being superior to Hit.\n\n * Even in the tournament of power, when Dyspo managed to counter Hit and land blows on him, Hit was heavily injured. At the same time, Dyspo's punches barely did anything to Goku and even Freiza was barely damaged by Dyspo(Dyspo managed to overwhelm Freiza only because of his speed, not superior in terms of raw power).\n * Hit was completely down after taking a single eye attack from Jiren while Goku had no visible damage and managed to get back up easily and fire a Spirit Bomb at Jiren.\n\nGoku did get a lot stronger after the Goku Black arc but no way to conclude\nwhether he got 10 times stronger since power levels do not exist anymore.\nHowever, Hit in terms of Raw Power isn't significantly strong. Even Gohan at\nfull power and Android 17 would be able to fight Hit(Solely in terms of Raw\nPower), based on their performances in the tournament of power. As far as\ntechnique and experience goes, Hit is on a whole another level and even the\nmore experienced fighters like Goku and Vegeta would have trouble against Hits\nspecial techniques forcing them to use Raw power with a strategy to try to\noverwhelm Hit(Another good example of the same is where an exhausted Base Goku\nbegins to overwhelm Super Saiyan 2 Caulifla on account of having more\nexperience and being a better Martial Artist).\n\n", "comment_count": 0, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2018-07-11T13:48:05.917", "id": "47789", "last_activity_date": "2018-07-11T13:48:05.917", "last_edit_date": null, "last_editor_user_id": null, "owner_user_id": "31104", "parent_id": "47787", "post_type": "answer", "score": 4 } ]

I might also\naccidentally drop spoilers of varying severity, so be cautious.\n\nKaneki has became half-ghoul after having kakuhou implanted. After this, he\nobtained all abilities available for ghouls, including regenerative powers,\nphysical power, ability to use kagune etc. Which leads me to conclusion, that\nin regards of organs, **the main difference between humans and ghouls is\nkakuhou** (probably as main element to control RC cells, which are ensuring\nthe rest of ghoul abilities).\n\nSo, maybe, we can reverse half-ghoul state by removing kakuhou? Doubtfully. In\nfight between Suzuya and half-ghoul twins Kuro and Shiro, Suzuya heavily\ndamages Shiros kakuhou, and later doctor Kanou mentions, that such damage to\nkakuhou is lethal, and Shiro will be not able to recover (chapter 107 of Tokyo\nGhoul). Which leads me to second conclusion - most probably, **kakuhou\ntransplantation is irreversible**. This also makes sense in terms of RC cells\n- after becoming half-ghoul, persons RC cells level in blood raises\nsignificantly, and most probably, without kakuhou, excess of RC cells may lead\nto [ROS](http://tokyoghoul.wikia.com/wiki/Rc_cell_over-secretion_disease)\ndevelopment.\n\nAlso, one note in regards of transplanting human organs to ghoul. If ghoul\nmother and human father will have a child, it was said that mothers body will\nmistake child for food and consume it. I don't think that transplantation will\nwork in different way - most likely, human flash will be either consumed by\nghoul body, or will be populated by RC cells to ghouls level.\n\nMost likely, to make ghoul a human, it would be better to try to decrease RC\ncells level in their body, but it is not clear how it will affect ghouls\naltered physiology. If I remember correctly, RC suppresants not just suppress\nghoul abilities, but also negatively affects their health.\n\n", "comment_count": 0, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2018-07-17T13:48:21.567", "id": "47887", "last_activity_date": "2018-07-17T13:56:31.777", "last_edit_date": "2018-07-17T13:56:31.777", "last_editor_user_id": "22203", "owner_user_id": "22203", "parent_id": "47869", "post_type": "answer", "score": 2 } ]
