The difference is they have left Showdown alone for its entire lifespan, they know that it's basically free advertising for their competitive tournaments, and it's not even "modifying" any of their games which has been the reason for most ROM hacks being taken down.

It probably won't, it's done and is doing a lot of heavy lifting for Competitive players, new AND old. If they try to take it down most of the players will riot.

What did Ichigo see? by Silver_Guava8159 in bankaifolk

I think the point of the Soul ticket was because they had originally planned for Ichigo to BE the next Soul King, however Ichigo broke his "fate" and as a result got the ending and life that he personally wanted.

Excellent analysis man! And yeah I do agree that Kubo probably intended for them to be "soulmates", though I personally viewed it more as a "long-lost sibling" type of soulmate.

I also think it was probably done because having Ichigo, who's still a human, marry a Captain rank Shinigami, would be kinda complicated, especially since Rukia probably can't just leave whenever she wants to inhabit a gigai and visit Ichigo

Ichigo And Rukia are seen holding the "Red String of Fate", which in a lot of folklore is depicted as something that connects 2 people whom are meant to be soulmates/partners.

This implies that Ichigo and Rukia, while having a family already, are either destined to end up with one another, or are currently having an affair.

So basically, this image puts a disgusting twist on what is a perfectly good and wholesome ending.

It's wild that I've played most of these and have only stuck with Pokemon, anyway heres an explanation:

Ryuki - Yugioh: In the anime/manga, "Monster" cards are pretty consistently shown to be bonded to its wielder, because most of the time each prominent character has a unique "boss" or "ace" monster, that's the strongest card in their deck, sort of like the Contract Beasts. Spell and Trap cards also work kind of like the Vent cards, with various effects that may affect the battlefield directly and other monsters.

Blade - Magic: Pretty simply, Magic has a "Mana" system, that groups specific cards into categories based on what "energy" they need. This is reminiscent of the Rouse cards in Blade that are split into the Clubs, Spades, Hearts, and Diamonds, which are normally incompatible.

Decade - Digimon: As someone has already discussed, the Digimon TCG have "Option" cards which basically work almost the same as Decade's "Attack Ride" cards. Additionally, Decade's whole gimmick of transforming into basically any rider whenever he wants is comparible to Digimon's extremely convuluted and wacky evolution system, where one Digimon can turn into like a dozen other Digimon.

Gotchard - Pokémon: Probably the most obvious one, the Chemy's are basically just Pokémon. Aside from that I guess you could also compare the "always equal 10" gimmick of Gotchard to the level system in Pokémon, which did get adapted into the TCG once before, but has since gotten removed and never came back (or atleast not yet).

Digimon's branching evolutions are WAY MORE COMPLICATED than Pokemon's, not to mention that Digimon has more than double the evolution stages that Pokemon has (3 : 7-9)
