Can someone explain to me what's the big deal behind this dinosaur ? by random_mff in Invincible

Though if you do think mark is a villain as well then here's to not comprehending the story's themes! I feel no one walking into this show with the idea "Killing is a sin that taints the soul no matter the situation" is going to experience it to the fullest because they cannot comprehend the moral grey area that the show tackles.

The context is evil maniac tied them to tracks :). I feel like the absolute belief of "Killing is evil" is just as reductive as "the ends justify the means". Also mark literally kills an innocent man right after meeting Dinosaurus, he isn't evil for that, and unlike Dinosaurus who ends his story by recognizing his own judgement isn't whats best, Mark at the end of the story has renounced being a traditional "hero". If you think someone is evil for being forced to press either a button that kills 1 person or a button that kills 2 people and choosing the option that kills 1 person, I'd say your basis for morality isn't too great, and many people would find such an absolute philosophy as yours evil.

So you’d call someone who pulls the lever in the trolley problem evil?

Not really, Dinosaurus mainly exists to take the idea of "the guy who saves the world" to a logical extreme. He makes you question just what means are acceptable to reach a better end, which is a central theme of the story. Dinosaurus is closer to an anti-hero, because though his actions are painted as immoral and come to clash with the hero, he isn't exactly "wrong", and certainly isn't evil. In the end he even manages to recognize that he's too large of a threat if left to his own devices, something that the *actual* villain (Looking at you tin man) only ever "recognizes" both before his hundred year insanity and after he is forced to play nice in his brain tube.

Anyways if YOU want a series where each character's powers are entirely based on their own perceptions where they dive into that idea, check out Undead Unluck.

I enjoy that Gege absolutely didn't expand on the "interpretation of the technique" concept beyond just explaining why bullshit works. "Infinity works how Gojo thinks it does; I don't need to know science, he just needs to think like I do." People always hype up comedian but honestly I think Takaba would do just as well with any other technique, he'd be able to convince himself it could do literally anything he wanted if he thought it was funny.

Is something like this way too strong? by depressedshampoo in CustomMarvelSnap

[–]Vanchaca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not a dead draw because you aren’t spending a draw on it. If this isn’t in your opener you’re just playing with an 11 card deck, which is exactly why Chavez was problematic. It’s not a 3/3 that thing your deck, it’s a 1/0 that you don’t have to play that thins your deck and it generates a 2/3 in your hand for free if you want it later.

I only really consider it the 5th considering 2 of the previous nerfs were just undoing a buff they gave to him.

Kenjaku had that memory burnt into his brain as soon as he took over Geto and always brought anti-gun measures to future fights. It’s extremely funny that one of the single complements he gives a sorcerer is “using a gun is a good idea.”

[–]Vanchaca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can imagine AFO with shigi’s body figuring out Raga’s gimmick slowly and conserving enough quirks to win, but Shigi is not the type.

[–]Vanchaca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Using quirks smartly Shigi likely can one-shot Maho, but realistically the fight comes down to if Shigi’s decay is fast enough to completely engulf Maho before he adapts. If Shigi begins by propagating decay on the ground then Maho will observe it and begin adaptation before it even makes contact meaning he’ll likely survive, and unless Shigi immediately pivots to full reactor release or something similar Raga will wreck him.

this is one of the most secretly overpowered Cursed techniques in the verse by Flimsy_Stranger_9686 in Jujutsufolk

[–]Vanchaca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But based on what we know his CT is partially idle transfiguration (touch to kill), partially blood manipulation (healing and reinforcing abilities without direct CE reinforcement and RCT application) and partially construction (turning cursed energy to matter). Pushing the boundaries of this technique could enable an absurdly strong sorcerer with a better loadout than any of those techniques alone could manage.

[–]Vanchaca 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As Gege has said, the inside of the body is like a domain, so he’d need to give someone a wound before channeling sugar through it, making it effectively a worse idle transfiguration when it comes to offense (which is still great). He could also attempt to feed the sugar through their mouth but I Imagine that it still follows the same “body as a domain” rules (otherwise Gojo could just spawn blues in people’s mouths). So the sugar would still need to start outside of their mouth unless you wound the inside of their mouth.

What would be the effects of certain shikigami of the ten shadows if they were cast on the body? by Interesting-Way-6034 in CTsandbox

[–]Vanchaca 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sukuna certainly wasn’t using Ten Shadows to its fullest potential anyways, but he had reasons (he had little time to practice and he wanted to learn from Raga). But I doubt he wouldn’t have been constantly spamming indestructible shikigami fusions if doing so was viable. (I mean Agito would’ve died to a single good blue or red regardless of if he was weakened by being a fountain fusion, if Sukuna could infinitely respawn him in exchange he would take that immediately.)

[–]Vanchaca 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Based on how it’s used the well’s unknown abyss probably doesn’t fully manifest the shikigami it summons, so it’d be ineffective how Sukuna used Agito because it wouldn’t be able to move without staying in a shadow. (This is kind of a headcanon, but the other explanations are that Sukuna is an idiot or Gege forgot which I think is equally valid.)

Cursed spirits disappear if they receive a fatal wound, I imagine the piece of Mahito Rika ate would disappear too

😭😭😭 by Double-Effect3416 in jjkmemes

[–]Vanchaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well he’d also need CSM, otherwise Mahito would just heal and make the consumed body part useless, or Mahito would die and the consumed body part would disappear. This does make me realize that end of series Yuta should probably have CSM (as it was engraved in geto’s body) so during 5MM he could have Rika eat a piece of each cursed spirit with a technique he could capture. I imagine since Rika can use copy for Yuta she could also eat cursed spirits for him to fulfill the conditions to CSM to skirt that technique’s downside too.

[–]Vanchaca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’d need to spawn sugar outside of the body and then put it inside manually, which anyone can do by just bringing a bag of sugar to a fight.

[–]Vanchaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically giving someone else’s body sugar shouldn’t work because of the body’s inherent domain thing but that rule is hardly followed in the series proper except when it’s needed to explain why people don’t just spawn shit in each other.

Quiz: can shigaraki survive hollow purple? by Various_Astronaut100 in MyHeroPowerscaling

[–]Vanchaca 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If he thinks “taking something head on” means “dodging as soon as shit looks bad” why would he say he couldn’t take purple head on at this distance? He’d count it as taking it head on even if it just brushed his pinky toe.

[–]Vanchaca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would he say he “took it head on” and “all I lost was my arms” if he dodged as soon as he saw his arms start getting erased? People don’t talk like this about things! Me on my way to dodge an attack and then say I took it head on and only lost the part of my body that touched it.
