[ { "body": "\n\nIt is never mentioned exactly how long a Cursed Child has to live, however the\ncorrosion rate increases even if a Cursed Child does not explicitly use their\nGastrea powers.\n\n> The Cursed Children were constantly taking massive doses of corrosion-\n> inhibiting medication to control the Gastrea inside their bodies, but it\n> still only inhibited and did not stop the corrosion completely. Because the\n> girls carried the inhibiting gene, they did not turn into Gastrea\n> immediately like normal people\n>\n> _Kanzaki, Shiden. Black Bullet, Vol. 1: Those Who Would Be Gods (pp.\n> 211-212). Yen Press. Kindle Edition._\n\nFrom the passage above it is clear that Cursed Children are naturally immune\nto the Gastrea virus' corrosion, however without the help of the corrosion\ninhibiting medicine it is clear that they would succumb to corrosion even\nsooner which is even truer for Initiators who actively use their powers.\n\n> At first glance, it seemed like she had just caught a cold, but Initiators\n> were protected from a variety of illnesses in exchange for the corrosion\n> rate that bound their bodies, so of course that was not the case.\n>\n> _Kanzaki, Shiden. Black Bullet, Vol. 4 (light novel): Vengeance Is Mine (p.\n> 125). Yen Press. Kindle Edition._\n\nThe Gastrea virus is always active, even when a Cursed Child is not actively\nusing their powers and as such the corrosion rate will continually increase as\nthe virus it \"used\" in a passive manner (healing wounds, preventing illness,\nfighting toxins etc.) Beside the passive \"usage\" it is also clear that the\nvirus works on it's own, so while it is held back by the inhibiting gene and\nthe corrosion prevention medicine the corrosion rate increase never stops\ncompletely.\n\n> Rentaro picked up the syringe that had fallen in the crack by the dresser.\n> Inside it was cobalt blue medicine in liquid form. Realizing that she hadn’t\n> taken her medicine, he became very sad. Nothing would happen if she skipped\n> it for a day or two, but if she didn’t take it for a while, the corrosion\n> rate of her body would gradually rise.\n>\n> Kanzaki, Shiden. Black Bullet, Vol. 1: Those Who Would Be Gods (p. 95). Yen\n> Press. Kindle Edition.\n\nThe piece above is after Enju ran away and while she will not be using her\npowers for fighting it is clear that her corrosion rate will still rise.\n\n> She was probably around seven years old, and she peered at Rentaro with a\n> puzzled look on her face. Her eyes glowed red.\n>\n> _Kanzaki, Shiden. Black Bullet, Vol. 1: Those Who Would Be Gods (p. 98). Yen\n> Press. Kindle Edition._\n\n.\n\n> Which meant that even Tina must understand that she needed to hide her red\n> eyes.\n>\n> _Kanzaki, Shiden. Black Bullet, Vol. 3 (light novel): The Destruction of the\n> World by Fire (p. 44). Yen Press. Kindle Edition._\n\nFrom the above it is also clear that hiding red eyes is a skill a Cursed Child\nmust learn, presumably (this is speculation, but probably valid) the cost of\nhiding red eyes means a slight increase in corrosion rate as the virus\nprobably has to be suppressed in some way to achieve this result.\n\nNow, the only corrosion rate ever mentioned (beside the over 50% for\nInitiators like Kayo) in the light novels is for Enju. At the start of Black\nBullet Enju is 10 years old and she already has a corrosion rate of 42.8%. At\nthis point in time she has known Rentaro for a year\n\n> “It’s been almost a year, hasn’t it?” she said. “Since you became a Promoter\n> and met Enju.” “It’s only been a year,” he replied. “We’re still not even\n> halfway to our goal.”\n>\n> _Kanzaki, Shiden. Black Bullet, Vol. 1: Those Who Would Be Gods (p. 33). Yen\n> Press. Kindle Edition._\n\nSo, to actually answer your question... \nGiven that the oldest Cursed Children are only 10 years old, from in universe\nthere is no way to know how old a Cursed Child can get, however if we\nspeculate it is fair to say that no Initiator is likely to reach more than\n10-12. At the end of Volume 2 Enju is given around 560 days to live (about 1.5\nyears) which would put her in that range. Cursed Children that are not\nInitiators are a bit of a wild card, but given that Enju probably started with\na corrosion rate of around 30-38% it is fairly save to say that no Cursed\nChild would survive to be older than about 20. Even with corrosion inhibit\nmedicine, which the non-Initiator children are unlikely to get, it is doubtful\nthat any would survive into their late 20s\n\n", "comment_count": 1, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2018-08-14T16:29:42.100", "id": "48345", "last_activity_date": "2018-08-14T16:29:42.100", "last_edit_date": "2020-06-17T09:17:53.303", "last_editor_user_id": "-1", "owner_user_id": "23590", "parent_id": "48320", "post_type": "answer", "score": 5 } ]

[ { "body": "\n\nThere's probably more, but the one symbol I'm aware of is the parents turning\ninto pigs.\n\nOne thing to understand about Spirited Away is that in Japanese media, the\nworld of kami, spirits, etc, is often depicted as a traditional Japanese city,\nmuch like the look of the buildings Chihiro and her parents stumble upon in\nthe beginning of the movie. (Other examples I can think of are Kamisama Kiss\nand The Morose Mononokean) Therefore, it's like they stumbled on the Japanese\nequivalent of the gingerbread house. It comes off as similar to Hansel and\nGretel, if instead of being threatened to be cooked, they were turned into\npigs for eating the house.\n\nBut furthermore, as I recall, there might have been some dialog about it being\n\"an abandoned amusement park.\" This is a reference to the Japanese bubble\neconomy of the 1980's. It was a time of explosive growth in the Japanese\neconomy. People indulged in their wealth, and one of the things they built was\na ton of amusement parks. Eventually, the bubble popped, and those amusement\nparks were abandoned left and right, sometimes still to be found in the\ncountryside, rotting away. <https://www.tofugu.com/japan/japanese-abandoned-\namusemnet-parks/>\n\nThis all ties in with Studio Ghibli's intent that the parents gorging on food\nand turning into pigs is a symbol for greed and consumerism.\n[https://www.boredpanda.com/spirited-away-chihiro-parents-become-pigs-meaning-\nstudio-ghibli-hayao-\nmiyazaki/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=organic](https://www.boredpanda.com/spirited-\naway-chihiro-parents-become-pigs-meaning-studio-ghibli-hayao-\nmiyazaki/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=organic)\n\nAlso possibly related, is the fact that Miyazaki commonly uses the image of\nthe pig in his art. He often draws people, and even himself, as a pig. In\nanother of his movies, Porco Rosso, the eponymous protagonist is in fact a pig\nfor most of the movie. It is implied that the reason he is a pig is that he\nprefers it to being human. Thus you might also read the pig as a lowly animal\nthat is still in some ways preferable to a human. That Miyazaki is also known\nto be a staunch environmentalist only supports this interpretation.\n\nThe theme of greed pops up in other places in the movie as well. For example,\nNo Face offers Chihiro gold, which she rejects, as she rejected the food\nearlier, and for that she survives, where the frog, who took the gold, ended\nup getting eaten.\n\n", "comment_count": 0, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2018-08-14T22:59:15.650", "id": "48351", "last_activity_date": "2018-08-14T23:28:32.513", "last_edit_date": "2018-08-14T23:28:32.513", "last_editor_user_id": "3734", "owner_user_id": "3734", "parent_id": "48347", "post_type": "answer", "score": 0 } ]

The amnesia is like most amnesia, strong enough that it takes time or extraordinary events to break it. Erin had both. After years, he suddenly wakes up after believing he died, with severed limbs regrown, and cannons pointed at him with people asking if he is a Human or a Titan. That is an incredible stress, adrenaline rush, and also directly related to the memories forgotten around the key. Upon seeing his fathers key after thinking about him being a Titan, he then remembers his father talking about the key and titans, as well as the drug that was injected into him, which is what caused the amnesia to begin with. \n\nIt could be a combination of both as well.

[ { "body": "\n\nI personally feel this is _illogical, inconsistent & terrible writing_. Even\nif one were to lowball Goku completely and consider Roshi to be the strongest\nhuman, there is absolutely no justification as to how one can scale Roshi's\npower to even Base Goku, let alone Super Saiyan Goku. Scaling him to Super\nSaiyan Blue Goku in terms of power again is just absurd.\n\nHowever, with an obvious degree of difficulty, it is possible to justify the\nsame for the following reasons.\n\n * Firstly, Roshi is definitely not using Ultra Instinct. If Roshi has any notion of Ultra Instinct which even Beerus can barely use, it would make no sense. I believe, Roshi has watched and studied Jiren's attacks during the course of the tournament and is simply countering his moves similar to what Vegeta did in _Episode 122_.\n * In terms of power, Jiren is nerfed in the manga. In _Manga Chapter 37_ , where Mastered Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta fights Beerus. After Beerus one shot MSSJB Vegeta, he said that Vegeta was strong enough to be a God of Destruction in another Universe. Also in the God of Destruction tournament, Beerus's suppressed attacks were supposedly strong enough to kill Multiple Gods of Destruction. Hence, that would already bring Goku and Vegeta to God of Destruction Tier and hence, the power difference between Jiren and Goku/Vegeta, might not be as big as it was in the manga. _Note: I know this still doesn't justify the fight with Roshi, however, I thought it might be an interesting point to include_.\n * Jiren is not as skilled of a fighter as he seemed to be in anime. He only possesses brute strength and raw power. This might be hard to believe based on what we see in the anime, however, it would be a logical explanation as to why someone like Roshi is capable of dodging Jiren's attacks. We see a worn out Goku being able to do the same while fighting Kale and Caulifla. Hence, Roshi might be a superior Martial Artist and has the edge on Jiren.\n * _In Manga Chapter 29_ , where Toppo mentions Jiren, he stated that _Jiren surpassed Vermouth in terms of Battle Power Alone_. Also, in _Manga Chapter 36_ , when Toppo fights Vegeta, he stated that in terms of sheer power, Vegeta was on par with Goku. Although I'm making an assumption here, I think one could logically use this to argue that Toppo perhaps meant while _Jiren had the raw power superior to Vermouth, he possibly isn't superior in terms of skill and the same applied to Vegeta with regard to Goku_. This could perhaps be used to defend Roshi's fight with Jiren \n * In the anime, when Vegeta keeps persisting and pushing back Jiren in Episode 122, Vegeta stated that Jiren was using less power and speed than what he used against Goku. Also in the early phase of their fight, Jiren did seem very uninterested in fighting Vegeta and kept considering him to be persistent and annoying. This technically lead to Jiren lowering his guard enough for Vegeta to land 2 solid blows. Jiren might possibly feel the same way about Roshi and substantially lets his guard down. If you watch Episode 122, Jiren initially treats Vegeta like a fly and simply just swats him away twice. He might be possibly trying to do the same against Roshi who obviously is putting a lot more effort and trying to capitalize on the same.\n * Even if you look at the scans, Jiren doesn't really seem hurt or injured or anything as such. He seems more annoyed than anything and is obviously uninterested in fighting Roshi and simply trying to knock him away(While completely underestimating his fighting experience).\n * Finally, I highly doubt this is a reason, however, Jiren might possibly be afraid of killing Roshi and possibly finding it hard to suppress himself to a level capable of knocking out Roshi without killing him. \n\nIn Conclusion, characters in the Manga are power scaled significantly\ndifferent from the anime. I think it would be best to not compare the Manga\ncharacters with the Anime characters anymore. I believe the 2 best possible\nreasons to Justify the same, first in favor of Roshi, is that Jiren is nerfed\nin the manga; probably not in terms of power but in terms of skill at least\nand Roshi might hence be a better technician. In favor of Jiren, he simply\nconsiders Roshi annoying and has no interest to fight him and simply wants to\npush him away without hurting him(Hence, severely underestimating his skill)\nand Roshi is capitalizing on the same.\n\n", "comment_count": 0, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2018-08-18T05:43:43.980", "id": "48406", "last_activity_date": "2018-08-18T05:43:43.980", "last_edit_date": null, "last_editor_user_id": null, "owner_user_id": "31104", "parent_id": "48403", "post_type": "answer", "score": 4 }, { "body": "\n\nThere's nothing too technical about it, other than he is using his own\nInstinct, Master Roshi has fought and trained for a longer time, so his muscle\nmemory and intuition is at work.

And once\nKakyoin figured The World's secret ability, it dawned on Jotaro that Star\nPlatinum might have a similar skill.\n\nOf course, he couldn't trigger it easily. At first he was merely able to see\nglimpses of the stopped time, then he's able to move in it for a moment and\nonly at the very end does he finaly manage to stop time on his own.\n\nNot all stand abilities are known to their users instinctually. Even Dio\ndiscovered the _Time Stop_ by accident while training. He also had to train\nhis ability to extend its length and his movement in it.\n\nWhile never actually explained, the most likely reason their stands are the\nsame type is their macabre family connection. Jotaro shares a bloodline with\nthe body Dio currenlty posesses (through the world's first vampire to human\nhead transplant).\n\nTo put it simply: \n[![Dio \\(in for of the devil\\) telling Jotaro that he had the talent in\nhimself all\nalong.](https://i.stack.imgur.com/GTYHI.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/GTYHI.png)\n\n", "comment_count": 4, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2018-08-22T18:53:18.670", "id": "48494", "last_activity_date": "2019-06-20T08:39:11.830", "last_edit_date": "2019-06-20T08:39:11.830", "last_editor_user_id": "11083", "owner_user_id": "8182", "parent_id": "48479", "post_type": "answer", "score": 4 }, { "body": "\n\nThere are two explanations. A in universe explanation, and a meta explanation.\n\nThe in universe explanation, is that when Jotaro realized The Wolrd's ability\nof time stop, he thought that maybe since his stand's ability is super-speed,\nthe next logical upgrade from super-speed is time stop, and so he tried it\nout, and it worked. I'd like to add that it is possible that Jotaro inherited\nthe stand from Dio, through Jonathan's body, just as Joseph inherited Hermit\npurple, from Jonathan. However this is speculation, and no-where is it\nconfirmed. Furthermore, some fans argue that Time-Stop had been foreshadowed\nthroughout part 3, especially in situations like the Darby fight, where he\ndemonstrates Star Platinum's insane speed. Some theorize that Darby knew The\nWorld's ability, and so he was so panicked by this demonstration, he thought\nStar Platinum is the same. Once again, I clarify that these are only\nspeculations.\n\nThe meta explanation is that Araki had thought of The World as the very first\nstand to be conceptualized, followed by Star\nPlatinum[1](https://pastebin.com/Eh5C3ENT). This could mean that he intended\nStar Platinum to have the ability from the start, to fit the the 'fight fire\nwith fire' trope.\n\n", "comment_count": 0, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2022-01-21T14:39:00.573", "id": "66250", "last_activity_date": "2022-01-21T14:39:00.573", "last_edit_date": null, "last_editor_user_id": null, "owner_user_id": "56091", "parent_id": "48479", "post_type": "answer", "score": 1 } ]

Sasuke's powers are Amaterasu\nand an unamed power I will call Amaterasu Control that let him control\nAmaterasu as if it was Gaara's sand, and put the inextinguishable flames out\nat will. We see this power clearly in that Itachi only ever shot Amaterasu out\nlike a gun from his eye, hitting whatever he was looking at. We see Sasuke not\nonly do the same, but also put out the flames and shape them, such as into\nspikes, on his own hands like Chidori, or even to coat Susanoo in them and\ncreate a shield so that they spread to the attacker.\n\nAfter Sasuke obtained the EMS, he still used Amaterasu control to the same\ndegree, but he never used Tsukuyomi because he couldn't. In Chapter 585,\nduring Sasuke's fight against Kabuto,\n\n> he and the Reanimated Itachi cast genjutsu on eachother to break out of\n> Kabuto's Genjutsu. Itachi used Tsukuyomi, while Sasuke used regular\n> Sharingan genjutsu.\n\nIf Sasuke was able to use Tsukuyomi, that would have been the time to use it,\nbut he didn't. Instead he keeps on using Amaterasu Control for precisions\nattacks using Amaterasu. The best example I can think off right now, In his\nFinal fight in the main series\n\n> against Naruto, Sasuke uses Universal Pull to bring in Naruto and his few\n> Shadow clones, and then surrounds himself in Amaterasu flames. Then he\n> creates spikes around his whole body made of the black flame just before\n> Naruto and his clones reach Him, piercing all the shadow clones, and Naruto\n> barely dodges by using his Chakra cloak to grab onto the flames.\n\nTL;DR he still uses Amaterasu Control after obtaining the EMS, but genjutsu\nwise only ever uses Sharingan Genjutsu. Thus the most likely answer is that\nthey keep their origional powers. The unique special powers of the other\nindividual are most likely lost, replaced with the other perks EMS has.\n\n", "comment_count": 2, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2018-11-29T18:24:10.863", "id": "49907", "last_activity_date": "2018-11-29T18:24:10.863", "last_edit_date": null, "last_editor_user_id": null, "owner_user_id": "20610", "parent_id": "48526", "post_type": "answer", "score": 1 }, { "body": "\n\nAFAIK Due to overuse of the Sharingan the eye loses its light(i.e The user\ncan't see).

[ { "body": "\n\nFirst thing: A common theme in the Fate franchise is \"Rules? Screw your rules.\nI'm a mage/servant/noble phantasm/whatever.\" The true competition is not in\ncompeting in accordance with the rules (no matter how much Ruler tries to say\notherwise), but in breaking the rules better than the others. In this vein,\nShirou forcibly activates the greater grail. It is a system that was designed\nto be interacted with by outside forces, and he uses that to his advantage.\n\nSecond thing: The condition to granting a wish is not \"only one servant\nremains,\" but rather \"sufficient energy has been collected through the\nexpiration of servants, and other servants are not currently getting in your\nway to stop you from activating the grail\". The (greater) grail basically\nworks as follows:\n\n 1. Draw magical energy from a ley line.\n 2. Use that energy and the promise of a wish to cause Servants to coalesce.\n 3. The servants have their own magical energy which is (much) greater than what you used to bring them there.\n 4. When a servant dies, they are \"filtered\" through the greater grail system. The grail claims their magical energy for itself.\n 5. Grail now has way more magical energy.\n\nIn the first war they only summoned three servants, one for each of the\nfamilies involved in its construction, but they couldn't achieve much with\nonly that much power; especially not their goal of reaching the root. So they\ndecided that to ensure that the Grail got a large enough supply they would\nneed around 6 \"average\" servants to expire, so they adjusted it to summon a\ntotal of 7.\n\nIn the Apocrypha grail war, the Clock Tower is able to activate a safety\nroutine that causes a double-scale war to be initiated. It was designed to\nonly need to summon 7 average servants, but now there are 14. This then\ntriggers another safety routine, which summons Ruler. So in fact only 6\nservants of average strength needed to be eliminated for the Greater Grail to\nhave enough power to grant a wish, up to 14 are available (counting Ruler),\nand fewer will suffice if there are exceptionally powerful servants (Black\nAssassin would be below average, but Red Rider is well above average, etc.).\nCombined with a forced activation you don't need to kill everyone, especially\nin a double-size war.

While she is shown to have Mother Caramel's ability soon after eating her, she ate a lot during that event. It is probable that, if there were any fruit in the area, should would have eaten that too (devil fruit or not). We know the devil fruit transfer was shown to be immediate with the salamander fruit so timing makes sense.\n\nLet me ask you these questions to consider:\n\n * How did Bartolomeo, the cannibal, get his devil fruit?\n * Have we ever seen any other cannibal or creature eat someone with a devil fruit? If a Sea King would eat a DF user, he would almost immediately die.\n * What constitutes eating? Luffy has been bitten and/or swallowed on a number of occations.\n\nWe do, of course, know that if you eat Luffy, you will get food poisoning (Oda\nsaid so).\n\n 3. We definitely don't know.

Whenever she rages, she's like godzilla and stomps on everything and eats food. But she doesn't eat people. In all the story's test scenarios she has killed her own children and enemies and giants in rage but never eaten them (she'll slow down and eat their life force instead). IF you believe cannibalism transfers devil fruit power, THEN you have to accept that being a devil fruit eater and eating another devil fruit eater comes with the same consequences - ie, death. A devil fruit eater can't eat 2 fruits.\n * funny but in popular mythos, it is giants who eat people, and LinLin ain't even a proper giant. She doesn't even seem to like meat - you only see her eat candy and sweets.\n * Someone brought up Bartolomeo. His \"the maneater\" is a play on words in Japanese, similar to english's phrase \"what's eating you\" ie, he teases people a lot, he doesn't literally eat them.
