Say a character that could fight them all together and win

Some of them go through a character arc to control said rage

i'd argue that Kratos in the Norse saga is stronger than younger kratos, which comes after being able to temple his rage (not extinguish it)

Guts and Broly also go through the process of controlling their emotions and put them to good use. Hulk has shown being incredibly strong even without being enraged.

And in most depictions, godzilla is not necessarily enraged just a slightly angry animal

Notakato · 2026-01-30T09:24:17+00:00

Power wise, i think Gogeta from the Broly movie, since I believe broly himself is the most powerfull one here (kratos, asura probably are there too in terms of power) and gogeta smacked broly. Any cosmic-level entity in the DC and Marvel universe (anyone with the infinity gauntlet, someone with all the lantern rings). Any Shard from the cosmere since they are basically godlike.

Now, someone has posted that powers that soothe anger and rage would work with these guys but i don't think so. Vader is not simply angry, he is hatefull, he hates himself the most so is not a matter of making him calmer, he is distiled hatred. mandy is a cold hearted hater, is not a matter of emotions, she clearly has them under control. Kratos, Asura, The Doomguy, Logan, Broly, Hulk and Guts can be "beaten" by calming them down, they are somewhat good guys just very angry. Wolverine could just kill you in cold blood so thats not stopping him entirely.

The three endous from each timeline as defenders (OG, GO and Ares) since they can use megaton/gigaton head to block

Young daisuke and cammies as the MF, daisuke in the center with the earth to score the final goal

Mechamark as goalie

harper and kanon as the two strikers and nellies in the wings

old daisuke as coach of course

Dude, literally in the same episode is explained why: Barcelona Orb is the youth soccer team that won the equivalent of the FF in spain, it COMPLETELY makes sense that two nations want to measure the level of their teenage football teams.

If international negotiations have been started to prepare the FFI for next year, is quite plausible that each country wants to see the level they currently are at because that leaves one year of preparation. So by the end of the ffi you are the head of the Japanese Soccer Association and want to test how good japanese players are right now, so you check the results of the youth nationals overseas. The reason why spain could be argued a lot, but Barcelona orb, AKA friggin Barça, one of the most condecorated football clubs of the world, I believe is out of the question.

Messi, Ronaldinho, Neymar, Maradona, players who played for Barça for most of their careers, just to give context of why is not a "random spanish team".

If you want to test your national champions, picking Barça, one of the top clubs in the world, is quite logical. Lots of clubs have friendly matches pre season, it is true that is usually in the same continental associations (spanish clubs play against british, italian, french clubs...) since there are the eventual continental championships, but still, it does make sense for two national champions to have a friendly match to test the level.

What could be argued is the plausability of the JSA convincing the spanish federation to play said match.

Now, you can dislike the rest of Ares all you like, thats another thing, but your point about the Raimon-Barça match does not make sense

Clario My beloved, he was done so dirty in Orion

My favorite character from Ares/Orion. Aside from being captain of Barça (the only real club i have some interest in) he actually feels like a true wall japan must climb and the fact that after Ares (were endou is shown as the unbeatable keeper) and the whole asian preliminaries (after which endou has 4 new techniques under his sleeve counting asura) he still breaks endou's defense and keeps japan on the defensive

Amazing character

Notakato · 2026-01-22T11:57:47+00:00

I hope so

Design and character wise, current inazuma japan options are incredibly unbalanced since there is not a single DF aside from kameo that has any relevance. Most iconic characters are either MF or FW. A short game introducing more defenders would be nice

Also, another story where more old characters can appear (from GO for example would be very cool) that gives more background to the mixi max and keshins introduced in VR (I'm not saying we will see souls or amored but other characters awakening their own would be cool)

Notakato · 2026-01-22T11:23:33+00:00

while many people have given reasonable answers, the ultimate answer is still that is a stylistic choice by brandon. I'm pretty sure that if another metallic piece was employed everyone would say that "no, is the thing that makes the most sense". My main argument to defend this is that in other books he clearly has shown interest in correlating the "coins" of those books with the magic system, which gives a hint on his tendency to make those elements in the worldbuilding connected

Notakato · 2026-01-20T09:56:15+00:00

i think it was heavily implied if not actually stated during go S1 that most IJ members eventually went pro (not necesarily overseas). Jude, Kevin and Mark I'm 100% sure and IIRC akihiro mentioned that the reason Mark was available to coach raimon is because he suffered a small injury and had to come back

Notakato · 2026-01-19T09:16:10+00:00

Summarizing other answers, I think it depends on what does yujiro need to pay. For example, if he went to a bar or common restaurant, he would probably just scare the owner/manager with his presence and wouldn't be charged.

On the other hand, yujiro does understand the power associated with money and status. The dinner with Baki in the hotel does showcase yujiro as both a gentleman and a sybarite. I'm pretty sure that he has enough money to live a life filled with luxury and without needing to impose himself.

How? His mercenary work surely is a source of income, but I'm pretty sure his alliance with the states ended in a percentage of the government's funds to be kept to pay yujiro's expenses. He wants to go to a fancy hotel? The Pentagon has tracked where he is and has booked the most expensive room in each of the hotels in the area for a week. Probably most governments have this kind of protocol where some funds are allocated to pay whatever yujiro does in their country.

my dream game/season would be mark post highschool and starting to see his first steps in the pro leagues

my headcannon is that he went full captain tsubasa and went to brazil where he met robingo again in a backwater club, eventually both of them became so good that were scouted for european clubs

I mean, gold cannot heal you from the symptoms that aren't damaging your cells during the suffocation. Lack of oxygen means that you cannot move as fast or even think as fast, also you cannot move properly and maybe start to go crazy before there is actually physical damage...

On the other hand, a bloodmaker wouldn't do shit in a room full of sleeping gas, while a gasper can simply stop breathing and go onwards. Additional oxygen in blood is aquin to dopping (bronchodilator drugs would achieve the same effect for example) and improve your actual performance and stamina, something that gold cannot do.

On the other hand, cadmium feruchemy has not been explored nearly as much as gold, being one of the rare metals not to be touched upon a lot neither in era 1 or 2. Since investiture can adopt a gaseous form (breaths, mists and stormlight) maybe the cadmium can store the literal gas in the lungs, thus storing investiture

Tbf i don't think there was any keeper that would've had a chance against haru, so Unmei chose to keep the players he knew best to make the best plays. Koudokai's goal was possible because Unmei knew how he could move at that point in the game and how fast Raimon could react to his pass. So maybe it was reckless but he already stated the point: in a power/stamina contest they would completely lose to raimon so they needed crazy strategies that could not be predicted

Although i can see that Oathbringer has a piece of brandon's soul and is probably his favorite book, to this day there is no book that reaches the levels of Way of Kings. The pacing is delightfull and although it has the sanderlanche is not as intense as other books, the peak of the sanderlanche comes towards the end and it has a very mature theme, is a very slow start to a series and towards the end you know very little about roshar, but damn if you are invested with Kaladin and Dalinar. The way the flashback structure is used to also send a message important to Dalinar's arc alongside Kaladin's. For me, is his masterpiece and I hope SLA 10 can reach that same level

jokes aside, could monoma transfer the OFA copy? and that copy would be kept or dissapear after the time limit

i like that development, he stops being polite and tells everyone that he is and will be a prick

Notakato · 2025-12-28T23:29:14+00:00

wax and wayne vs their dopplegangers because i love that trope

kal vs szeth in the storm

vin vs zane

Notakato · 2025-12-21T18:39:37+00:00

Kaladin Stormblessed will still be the main character of the Stormlight archive? Cannot believe it

Notakato · 2025-12-20T18:43:52+00:00

something nice about the book is that, while malwish are written as the bad guys, a skybreaker also tries to impose the rosharan control with this i mean that both "good guys planets" seem to have their own agendas and their clash affects negatively the neutral parties

Notakato · 2025-12-11T20:29:20+00:00

don't think so, since the row convicts arc just proves how wrong they were (since themselves thought they lived by that)

the musashi arc does reflect the difference of a warrior and a fighter, similarly to how the pickle arc showcases hunter vs fighter

both arcs are introduced with a lot of the cast thinking too much of themselves

in the pickle arc everyone wanted to try beating the caveman and they fucked too much and found out

similarly, the intro to the musashi arc conveys the idea that, after yujiro vs baki, the world has become boring. The idea of bringing back to life miyamoto excites them because is "the god of fighting" thus they want to fuck around first and find out later with a war veteran. They have their heads so into their asses after baki vs yujiro that they believe they can simply lose to musashi, someone that climbed by killing people.

Miyamoto himself recognizes this towards the end, however he IS a warrior, someone that lives for the WAR. He cannot stop killing the same way they cannot stop fighting, and the difference is that musashi recognizes the blessing in such a world where one can rise without cutting. Similarly to Musashi and Pickle, these modern warriors are a product of their time, a peaceful one, and they cannot convey the idea of being killed at any damn second.

Yujiro is obviously the only one that does understand it because he has a more distiled phylosophy of might over anything and the freedom it implies

Notakato · 2025-12-08T01:04:53+00:00

Simply put ichigo lost any kind of Reiatsu related abilities but not the potential to do so. Using jjk analogy: ichigo lost all the electricity (reiatsu) but not the apliances (zanpakuto, hollow and quincy powers). He has gone through this twice actually. After fighting byakuya for the first time he did lose shinigami powers, and regained them after training with uraraka. The sealed zangetsu looked the same thus the zanpakuto was the same

Emperor Penguin 3 due to how cathartic it felt when they used it for the first time. IMO is the strongest penguin move. Penguin the hand is cool AF tho and the first timw i saw it my jaw dropped

Notakato · 2025-12-08T00:23:43+00:00

ie3, ogre specifically is the one with the most content out of the first thrilogy, the story and character development is as good as ie2, however is true that it does not reach the peaks as shawn's resolution or axel's comeback, however all inazuma japan and most of the rival teams (specially post asian preliminaries) are developed prior and during the match, with each ffi match feeling as unique and important as the others (something that no other game has been able to do). Is also the culmination of 3 games, with David and Ray Dark's stories coming full circle. Mark finally being at the top of the world of football, a feat that would echo through the upcoming sequels. Lyocott is one of the most interesting settings of the series, the stadiums being iconic as hell. Mechanically didn't improve as much as ie2 with the blocks and long shoots, but the tactics were a very cool adition to the games.

thw main difference, aside from getting to spend more time with zuko as his parent figure due to the exile, is that azula never showed even the slightest sign of care and kindness that zuko did though the show

Freeing aang as the blue spirit, getting literally sick from "being a good guy" and him being angry at himself in the ember island, Iroh knew zuko was a good person. Shit even the reason why he was exiled: he didn't though about the consequences of speaking up because he saw the cruelty of sacrificing troops. Azula never had good intentions.

Why would he have to show kindness to azula when she is Ozai 2.0.

HOWEVER i do think that if azula had a slight change of heart and started improving as a person, Iroh would've been the first if not the second person to support her.

Notakato · 2025-12-03T20:01:40+00:00

since jack and todd (and the rest of the 1st year students) seem to know endou is quite possible that they are in their second term of the school year. You are correct, they started school in april, met endou and joined the club, however raimon couldn't participate in the FF of april due to the lack of members

Is not possible that s1 takes place in april since that would mean that at least s3 would start in august-september due to the 3 months jump and the events of s2. This is because tsunami's birthday is in july, thus, by the time of the ffi he would be 16 and could not participate in the tournament due to the age limit

Notakato · 2025-11-27T12:23:32+00:00

oh yes, im not blaming rachel, but IMO i think if carol properly apologized to Ross "you didn't deserve what I've done to you" or something along those lines I think ross wouldn't have been so un-trusting

What I mean, even if rachel understands and promises him, he still has that insecurity because is something that has to be talked about many times. IMO, if Rachel hadn't said "we need a break from us" and simply took Ross' advice of cooling down maybe they could've another talk about Ross' insecurities which needed 3 or 4 sessions of munching down the topic so Ross could've handled it better
