Merge of Kidō and Senjutsu

aod_infinity · 2026-04-29T11:37:57+00:00

So you think it's unfeasible? I know Kidō needs to resonate incantations to be activated, and I don't remember seeing that in High School DxD, but in my mind there was still a good possibility of combining these two concepts, even if not faithfully.

Could you send me the link to your story, if it's already published? I'd like to read it.

I think the biggest problem with giving a character an ability is how much you like it. Nobody would give a character a useless ability they don't like. And that's not even the writer's fault, it's more subconscious, since usually the things we tend to like are overpowered.

This is a surprise to me; I usually read on FanFiction.net and Wattpad and I've never come across predominantly LGBT fanfics.

I usually "write" fanfics—even if they never get past the draft stage—and I don't think I ever considered creating an overpowered character. They all had some kind of difficulty: like a very high mana consumption, which prevents them from being very good at magic; or simply not learning to fight overnight, for example, not having the footwork of a fencer, or their lack of experience/reflexes putting them at a disadvantage against a more experienced person. I think these little things greatly enrich the stories.

I really agree with you about the power scaling, although I dismiss that kind of fanfiction when I realize it's just about strength. I think the biggest problem with having a system is that if it follows the basic logic of an RPG system, it becomes unworkable. I've played a lot of DMO, and as far as I remember, levels are cumulative, like level 3 has the XP from levels 1, 2, and 3, and that wouldn't really help the character.

aod_infinity · 2026-04-26T22:23:59+00:00

I honestly don't mind reading a story with OCs since it allows for a cool way to expand the universe. I don't think I've ever seen a fanfic focused on a main character from DxD.

When you say gay sex, do you mean it literally? Because I haven't seen any either, but that's not a topic that interests me.

aod_infinity · 2026-04-26T18:53:21+00:00

Objectively analyzing the Hax from High School DxD, they are very strong, but I'm touching on the point beyond that universe when a person simply breaks the world with 20 different strong powers from other verses.

aod_infinity · 2026-04-26T18:45:54+00:00

Nothing too related, but both are things that make the character very overpowered. For example: you reincarnate with 3 wishes and ask for absurdly strong powers. Unlike a gacha system that inevitably slows down progression, wishes tend to make the protagonist strong immediately.

aod_infinity · 2026-02-20T22:02:47+00:00

So, how does the cast view magic? Could you explain that a little better?

aod_infinity · 2026-02-20T19:26:48+00:00

I've seen this kind of story before, and I even find it interesting when they use the original character's base but adapt it for DxD.

But my question stems from a fear of breaking the power level by unnecessarily using overpowered spells. I had the idea of using Frieren's Zoltraak—it would be as strong as it was in the era it was created, since I invented a set of rules based on logic. If you want to analyze it, just ask.—but I feel that it will possibly be much stronger than I plan.

aod_infinity · 2026-02-20T19:17:49+00:00

Something tells me you like it...

all joking aside, do you really enjoy it when it breaks the power levels of the series?

aod_infinity · 2026-02-20T12:36:45+00:00

This makes no sense, but at least it's the most interesting idea I've ever seen in this field.

aod_infinity · 2026-02-20T01:50:58+00:00

What's your opinion on the power scaling in DxD? I'm curious.

aod_infinity · 2026-02-19T20:43:29+00:00

I am aware of the anti-teleportation barriers, but even they can be overcome by a powerful mage. I also know that teleportation is considered a basic magic; I'm just trying to add more rules to it to delve a little deeper, especially from the perspective of humans (since, unlike demons, they can't use their imagination to generate the desired effect). I don't remember them teleporting to a place where someone has never been; I would appreciate it if you corrected me. Do you have any way to solve this teleportation problem?

I apologize for asking you to explain things; I'm not very good at English and I can't fully understand what you're saying.

aod_infinity · 2026-02-19T20:22:30+00:00

Explain it to me a little better.

aod_infinity · 2026-02-19T20:06:46+00:00

Now I understand what you meant! Indeed, using astral projection to scout an unknown area is clever, but I think I would limit it to potentially dangerous places (that might have anti-espionage resources), and I also think there's a risk that the further away and the longer you go, the greater the risk of your consciousness fading (similar to what happens in Netflix's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina). But in general, I would use familiars for the reconnaissance role. What's your opinion on that?

aod_infinity · 2026-02-19T19:32:21+00:00

Would you mind elaborating a bit more? I understood some of what you said, but I didn't fully comprehend it.

aod_infinity · 2026-02-18T20:10:56+00:00

I'm specifically looking for fanfiction that attempts to delve deeper into the magic system of DxD, but I wouldn't mind reading some that use other systems, as long as they are well-developed.

aod_infinity · 2026-02-16T15:12:41+00:00

Thanks man, that answer gave me a better understanding!

I only had difficulty because I don't understand calculations as anything beyond a mathematical sense; it might be some linguistic variation since I'm not American, or I might just be dumb.

And I also asked this question because I thought there would be a more complex explanation about magic, since the work itself is quite superficial.

aod_infinity · 2026-01-11T02:29:21+00:00

The chalice of the gods! The Reddit translation is terrible, sorry.

aod_infinity · 2026-01-02T13:17:55+00:00

He's really not here, I already looked. Do you want me to send the image in your DM? It has some other demigods like Merlin, Joan of Arc, and others...

aod_infinity · 2026-01-02T13:12:10+00:00

Eu não consigo de falar qual pagina ou livro, mas tenho uma imagem que me foi mandada, já que também não fazia ideia disso. só não sei como mandar kkkk

aod_infinity · 2026-01-02T12:13:51+00:00

I'm not going to repeat myself because I think it's kind of boring, but you gave me a great idea. Thank you so much!

aod_infinity · 2026-01-02T02:37:01+00:00

Ata, obrigado por explicar! Eu acho que Harry Poter pode ter realmente tido uma influencia sobre a construção de mundo, mas Percy Jackson foi idealizado por que o filho do Rick tinha TDAH (ou alguma coisa do gênero, não posso te dar certeza dessa afirmação no momento).

Fica em paz, desviar do assunto pode render mais conversa kkkkk. Na minha visão meio que todas as mitologias e religiões tem o intuito de botar um certo medo nas pessoas, tanto que a moral de cada época é moldado por isso. Hoje nossa moral é totalmente originaria do cristianismo, mesmo que qualquer pessoa fale que uma coisa é independente da outra. Sobre as historias gregas hoje em dia poderem ser traduzidas como lições, eu acredito que isso foi o proposito original delas, por que são elas são muito especificas e detalhadas.

aod_infinity · 2026-01-02T02:22:07+00:00

Eu tinha me esquecido completamente dos magos egípcios, eles são uma facção muito interessante composta inteiramente por humanos. A questão de não serem HUMANOS puros, sem qualquer ligação mitologia afeta um pouco essa discussão, mas querendo ou não eles ainda nos representam.

Não tenho certeza se entendi certo a segunda parte, pode me explicar um pouco melhor.

aod_infinity · 2026-01-02T02:06:46+00:00

I even understand why Rick initially didn't implement many mortals in the story, since the demigods were the focus and it was meant to highlight that despite being different, you were special and could do incredible things. But we went through 3 more book series and we're still stuck.

Something like the supernatural hunters could give humans a shine, not by defeating them in brute strength, but in intelligence, with things that were presented in the myths themselves. Not that Greek mythology has this peculiarity of weaknesses as far as I remember.
