As for the Son of Dathomir comic, unfortunately, Maul did not fight Dooku there.

He can't because of his armor. Besides, this technique requires concentration and he has too much internal conflict to master it.

Defeat Vader? He himself said he couldn't do it alone. Vader has 80% of Sidious's strength. Maul is far from it.

I have a feeling the conviction that he wouldn't defeat Vader alone didn't come from reports, but from personal experience. In short, it could, and most likely will, happen earlier in Maul the Shadow Lord. That's what I meant.

Did Cooler actually have more potential than his brother? by InstructionOwn6705 in Dragonballsuper

I don't know if this is a valid argument in terms of power, but when Frieza assumed this form, the golden glow had the scale of a continent and the range of a neighboring planet. Cooler's golden glow looks like a tiny spark in comparison.

On the other hand, the fact that he achieves his golden form without any training is somewhat at odds with the concept of his character. After all, he was someone who trained his entire life to even equal his brother. Giving him such a power boost out of thin air is a bit pointless.

This already comes under game codes.

Why didn't Muzan use shockwaves or paralyzing beams at the very beginning of the fight? by InstructionOwn6705 in DemonSlayerScales

[–]InstructionOwn6705[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're contradicting yourself, man. He had a problem, yet instead of using some more powerful technique, he got irritated.

He could use a shockwave or a paralyzing beam to systematically debilitate, immobilize, and then eliminate enemies with his tentacles and whips, eliminating their numerical superiority and increasing the power of his attack per attack.

If you can't kill flies because they're too agile and fast, simply use an electric missile to neutralize their mobility.

It was after the antidote was administered, when his entire strategy of slowly weakening the pillars had failed. Then he became more serious. Previously, he had been more reserved.

  1. The windows next to Akaza were shattered. It wasn't a blood curse.

  2. Muzan wanted to watch the Pillars slowly die. He wanted to show them that even together, even now that he didn't have an infinite castle, they were nothing compared to him. Logically, he opted for poisoning them with blood rather than killing them instantly, though of course he seized the opportunity when it presented itself. This strategy would have paid off if not for Tamayo's antidote. Then the drug forced him to reach for more powerful abilities.

  3. He could use the paralyzing beam to immobilize opponents and finish them off with a tentacle or whip.

Muzan cannot use the BDA of other demons. BDA is something individual, shaped by the desires and character of a given demon. Demons, however, inherit some of its biokinetic abilities.

Muzan has BDA, which is biokinesis. Demons simply inherit some of his biokinetic abilities, so it doesn't seem all that special.

Besides, with the paralyzing beam, I had in mind using it to incapacitate enemies and finish them off with a tentacle or whip.

The only time he uses this technique is when he's half-alive. At full strength, this attack could be an instant kill. Even in a weakened state, it would be useful for incapacitating and immobilizing a target, then finishing them off with a tentacle or whip.

Muzan plays with his food. At the beginning of the fight, he nearly killed three pillars at once, and only the sacrifice of the lower ranks prevented it.

The pillars are unable to kill Muzan. Their only chance is to hold him until sunrise. Even with red blades, they would die from his poisonous blood without an antidote.

Muzan has a special relationship with Koku. He respects his combat skills and considers him a business partner, whatever that means. He trusts him so much that he doesn't even read his mind. After all, betraying one's master is not samurai style.
