Why I won't verse equalize

  • This is a response video for all of the comments I've gotten regarding verse equalization. Verse Equalization is a fan made condition often used in Versus Battles or Cross verse debates. It is a condition placed on a fight where the different power systems the characters may use are equalized to be the same energy. This way the entirety of a character's arsenal is available in a fight. I don't like using this condition in my VS Battle videos and since I've received many comments regarding this topic I wanted to voice my position.
    Versus Battles are JUST for FUN. These are all thought experiments.

      Naruto post six paths chakra was able to see and beat up madara's limbo clones. Limbo Hengoku lets madara project copies of himself into an alternate dimension thats out of synch with physicals reality. Being able to attack something like that is more impressive than being able to attack some who warps space around themselves to defend from attacks.

Physics would suggest "no" since even in being in an alternate dimension Physics would still apply and Gojo's CE creating Physics and mathematical based feats would make his toolkit nullify almost everything besides Infinite Tsukuyomi

      Eh. There's different levels to verse equalization. In JoJo only other people with stands can see stands. One thing we haven't seen is if someone who can use hamon without a stand can see stands. Till that's shown it's fair to assume someone with "magic" can see stands. When it comes to things like genjutsu from Naruto Chakra is how you defend against but it can be argued any form of magic power that can move through the body can be used to defend against genjustu
      I think when looking at verse equalization it's important to look at if another power system is used in a similar enough way to where the only real difference is what it's being called

    I hate verse equalization. For example, when it's done with haki and chakra, usually biased debaters would use it to not only give someone resistance to Conqueror's Haki, but also try to say that since they'd most definitely have haki and all 3 types it'd be GGs. It's a crude example, but it happens. It's an excuse to take some advantages away while gaining some for your side of the conversation.

    Verse equalization needs to be kept on a short leash. Magic goes with magic. Spirit goes with spirit. Science goes with science. Things like Chakra, which are reliant on extra parts, don’t go with anything. Devil fruits don’t go with anything either (their origins are still shrouded in mystery), but their elemental matchups (like magma > fire, rubber > lightning, etc.) still need to be taken into consideration.

    • @ShesBearynice
      @ShesBearynice 21 วันที่ผ่านมา +9

      W.
      Magic goes with magic. Spirit goes with spirit. Chakra is spirit though, let’s not be stupid. It’s literally just their Ki variant, right down to other stories calling their shit Chakra AND Ki and shit interchangeably.
      The leash that needs to be tightened is on the frameworks of people who pretend that things with obvious mechanical natures don’t belong. Chakra not only involves “spiritual energy”, meaning mental endurance, but it’s literally called Stamina when it’s put together with physical energy (physical endurance). It’s just spirit shit.
      And doesn’t Vegapunk imply Devil Fruits are science? They literally mutate you biologically, so it’s just a quirk. I wouldn’t say things like Quirk Negation would apply to it, or something, but it could. That’s a possibility we should consider and operate alongside, not as a definitive interaction, but as something that CAN apply.
      Ppl suck at using basic reasoning.

      @@emmanueladekunle3088 What they meant is probably not that fruits "are science", but rather that the fruits somehow work KIND OF similar to quirks. Vegapunk was able to reproduce zoan devil fruits and paramecia devil fruits by taking a devil fruit user's "lineage factor", that is, their DNA. We know that in one piece devil fruits at the very least "do" change your DNA (and also do some other thing that we don't exactly know, especially logias are weird as fu-), it's how they affect your body, even though he doesn't entirely understand how they work down to the letter (especially logias), we know that they work at the level of your lineage, similar to how quirks work (quirks are also DNA and lineage related). Personally I think Aizawa could negate devil fruits power, with less effect depending on the user's mastery over their fruit and their haki, since we know that in one piece haki can negate devil fruits (meaning they can be negated) but ONLY AS FAR as the devil fruit user's own haki goes, we saw Aokiji able to use his ice logia powers to not get skewered by Whitebeard's haki-coated stab. I'd call quirk-nullification "a weaker sea prism stone that depends on the difference between the nullifier's and the devil fruit user's power".

    Haven't watched the vid yet so I can make a guess and see how right or wrong I am. First, verse equalizing is done carelessly and used to give unfair advantages to characters or series. Second, the mechanics of a particular power system should not grant characters abilities they do not have, or interactions that should not be possible. Third, it is used to dismiss the discussion on how competing power systems would theoretically interact and is used as a shortcut to get to the meat of the discussion, the actual fight characters and fight itself.

    I love this video, your points are incredible. I just feel like the example you chose at 11:13 was a little poor since we saw in Naruto and Boruto that the Rinnegan cannot absorb REAL sources of fire and lightning etc. That's why Sasuke's Kirin ability is so useful since it creates a real lightning bolt instead of chakra being molded into lightning. The logia users of one piece are all literally the element after all so if Ace were to blast Nagato with a flame fist, he would not be able to absorb it since it is not artificial fire.

    tbh i think both ways to powerscale are ok and can coexist. Both systems of powerscaling have their pros and cons but they also provide much more insight for both sides rather than just having no verse equalization or having every verse being equalized. You can make many matchups with it and without it you can have clearer view and also have more concrete way for fight to play out. In the end i think both should be used in moderate amounts and both sides should give way in some cases.

    The biggest one for me is saying you can break out of Aizen's Kyoko Suigetsu because you can break out of genjutsu. When Aizen's Kyoko Suigetsu doesn't possess the same baseline mechanics that allows people to break out of genjutsu.

      @@Kurotama11 You make a good point. I also remember the statement about Lucci and it was even confirmed that Black Maria and Sasaki had Haki. My only pushback is that I would say that Lucci as a baseline for people that have useable Haki is pretty high. I think Marineford and the showings for the Admirals, and even Return to Sabaody, kinda skewed our perspective on how strong the pre-timeskip guys are.
      For example, you have X Drake who was a former Rear Admiral which is only one rank below Vice Admiral. He has the 4th highest bounty among the Supernovas and we even assumed that Law, who is worth less than him, was stronger than him let alone Luffy. Here we have Lucci who could match Luffy blow for blow so Lucci himself is on the high end of Rear Admiral if not above it. We even a Buster Call Vice Admiral giving respect to how strong Lucci is and considering it impossible for a pirate, definitely referring to those in Paradise, to defeat him. And then we have "Captain" Koby who was proficient in Haki, but he was soon after promoted to Rear Admiral and he along with Helmeppo and others are considered by Garp to be the "Future of the Marines" so they don't follow the "normal" scale for Marines.
      Even if it was common for regular captains to have use of at least 1 haki type, then that's still a ridiculously small number of the over all population of the Marines especially considering Captain is the rank directly under Rear Admiral with a dozen ranks below it.

    Honestly I have always hated VE (verse equalization), as well as BL (blood lusted) fights. The reason it because in both example you take away from what its meant to be. In VE it's stupid because chakra, and reiatsu are meant to be spiritual in nature, atleast to a certain degree, so I'm fine with that. However when u try to equalize haki with the other 2 u then have stupid arguments, because they share almost nothing in common. Similarly in BL its stupid because people use it as a crutch to let their favorite characters win. Example I always see is goku. People always say goku is BL and instantly speed blitzes the fight when goku never does that in a fight. If u want to say frieza blitzes and instantly wins that is perfectly fine, because it's in character.

      My argument for equalizing haki with reiatsu and haki is that their both energy, more speciifcally a kind of life energy. In fact if you go to the roots of what these energies originate from, the aincent Chinese concept of Qi is basically what your getting. WIth that context in mind, equalizing all of them make sense as their all effectively at their roots, the same kind of energy. If you want to take it further, its all literally just "energy", the type of energy doesn't matter all that much. Diffrent form or shape, but if you strip things down to the very fundementals (atoms, subatomic particles, ect) its matter, and energy.
      Energy can interact with energy, matter can somewhat influence energy, but energy can affect other forms of energy. In a multiversal setting, wither its magical or not are just additional properties given to it, but its still just energy with stuff added on top. In my mind at least, differing diffrent kinds of energy feels silly as outside of like, energy wavelengths, they all operate at the same level if you want to be technical about it.

    I think there's a lot to talk about this topic, I personally preffer when there IS verse equalization, and even there could be "spectrums" of it. One of the biggest problems is that Verse equalization is not treated the same as Speed equalization.
    Speed equalization is best defined as "The character's speed is not the determining factor of who the victor is", this means that we are ignoring speed in the discussion, not that characters have equal speed, because that involves things such as the slower character suddenly gaining several speed based abilities they wouldn't have before.
    Verse equalization is treated the wrong way, in which "energies are equal in capability", when it should be closer to "characters being from different series shouldn't impact their performance", obviously there's nuance and discussion to be had there, but its along the lines of it being quite sad that a character like Itachi , who is famously an illusionist, has to constantly rely on imperfect susanoo and amaterasu, two of his most flawed powers, in VS discussion, when it would be significantly more fun to let him use his full tools, tsukiyomi, yata mirror included.
    On a similar note, I think there should be more talks about constructing better verse equalization, if at all to have a good alternative to no equalization, and having both discussions can be added to the fun.
    a problem that arises a lot with One Piece is that Haki is not exacly an internal energy system the same way Mana, cursed energy or chakra are, while it can be "depleted" and you can use "a great deal of it" to fend off certain abilities, it's a stretch to say that it's used to "power" things, while it's more appropiate to say that it "conditionalizes" attacks, like, yes, it makes them stronger, but it's pretty clear in text that it's more of a factor of "is your willpower stronger, which makes your haki more effective" rather than "if I put all of my haki units into this attack, i can bypass the enemy's current haki unit's in defense, but then i'll have 0 units". this turns into more of a personal definition but for any interested, I consider Haki to be more of a unique powerset, where Haki users have a form of intangibility or durability negation, but its specified towards hitting targets that have had their forms altered, so for example, Juvia from Fairy Tail is essentially a water logia, she uses magic to transform into water, but her original self is human, so Haki works on hiting her as normal. instead, a character who was born made out of water already (like certain Stands such as geb or Aqua Necklace) would be immune to haki in a similar way Prometeus the Homie is, since he was born AS fire.

      I completely understand where you were coming from and truth be told you seem to have a good idea of what verse equalization could be, but the problem where the fan-made definition like this is that it ultimately will always come down to whether or not people agree with said definition. It's not like there's a definition that you can just pull out of the dictionary. Which is ultimately one of my biggest problems with it.
      That's why I really don't care for the charm as a whole or battles that involve it because it then becomes A subjective clash where one person may think that certain abilities will interact one way and another person will leave me that they'll interact another way. Too many questions are brought up that over complicate a debate or conversation and It ultimately just leads to non-answers.

    I have mixed feelings. I agree that verse equalization can be applied in ways that give characters incredibly unfair advantages that negate their opponents abilities. Similarly, though, i feel that not equalizing runs into a different but similarly frustrating problem: character's arent able to fight at all like we expect them to, so the versus battle feels like an unsatisfying "what if" where none of the characters get to fight in-character.
    For example, if I was curious about the results of a Vs. Battle between jjks Jogo and bnhas Todoroki, I'd personally find it really underwhelming as a Todoroki fan if the answer was "Todoroki instantly loses because he cant see or perceive curses in any way, so Jogo sneaks up on him and ends him without any contest", even if this is true to the established context of both settings. Similarly, it would be very underwhelming as a Jogo fan to be told "domain expansion wouldnt work on Todoroki, as he has no cursed energy and the barrier wouldnt recognize him as a target." This is also true based on the context of the settings, there is no cursed energy in bnha, but it feels like the most boring outcome, since in both cases the characters arent able to fight as we usually see them doing, because of the differences between their settings.
    Fights with Jojo characters in-world and as we the audience experience them are of characters with mythical avatars using them and their abilities to fight each other, balancing their respective Stands stats, ranges, sizes, abilities, etc in order to win the fight. But if characters from other settings were to fight Jojo characters, they would be met with enemies wielding invisible, impossible to see or telegraph abilities, with avatars that are completely indestructible regardless of what you hit them with. The strongest Kamehameha from dbz should be effortlessly tanked by Hierophant Green (a syand thats characterized in part by its low durability), since "stands can only be hit by stand users."
    Vs. Battles are supposed to be a fun thought experiment, and i feel like not verse equalizing certain things actively makes the fights less fun, as we can end up in situations where neither character is able to act in ways that are recognizable to the fans who put them in the situation. When watching Megumi fight in JJK, im not usually thinking "oh man I love Nue, with its abilities of flight, lightning, and invisibility that although not applicable to any of the characters he fights in the setting, is a core part of its moveset as it is a shikigami and you need to meet a certain threshold of cursed energy in order to see it," even if thats technically true. I'm not saying there's a way you should do it. it's just a consideration.

    • @ivantheenigma577
      @ivantheenigma577 22 วันที่ผ่านมา +5

      I wouldn't label "letting characters see each other when they otherwise wouldn't" as verse equalization, it's just a caveat for the sake of the experiment. I'd only label it so if it was for attacks and abilities that people "In verse" aren't supposed to see. For example, Soul Reapers/Hollows are not intentionally cloaking themselves from the sight of others but someone like Shiryu of the Rain is. The former is a characteristic that can't be controlled while the latter is an actual power used at will that characters in verse have to use their own abilities to circumvent.
      Sometimes characters just have bad/unwinnable matchups and this isn't even limited to cross verse. Gojo and Obito are the prime examples where they just deny entire move sets from their own verses because their ability is just that strong. Stands might be invincible to any non-stand based attack, but the users aren't and multiple characters were defeated due to this very distinction. Most stand users are actually just regular human level and, unless they have a mega broken ability like GER, they actually fold pretty easily to most notable anime combatants.
      I'm on the other side of you, where I like not seeing the characters fight like normal. I want to imagine how they'd deal with an opponent where their normal fighting style doesn't work or they have to come up with counters midfight.

      I do not have the same idea of a "satisfying answer" as you. I do VS battles with the explicit intent to find, with as CLOSE to an objective answer as possible, an answer to "who would win?". An answer that is anticlimactic is not unsatisfying for me, because if that is how it would actually go, that is what I want to hear. Yes, Todo DOES lose instantly against Jogo since he cannot perceive or harm Jogo. That's just the way it works, and it's fair to say it how it is. That is a satisfying answer.
      Simply DON'T make matches where one character is obviously disadvantaged. Why specifically Jogo and Todoroki??? They do not have anything in common other than, like, heat I guess? Even then Todo uses fire and Jogo uses magma so it isn't the same. Just don't put them against each other, it's not fair.
      Put someone with extra-sensory abilities against Curses. Someone who does not necessarily need to see them in order to fight them, someone who can harm them even without Cursed Energy via Hax abilities. Someone like Touma with Imagine Breaker. That's infinitely more interesting to me than just *making* cursed spirits visible and able to be harmed by anyone and anything. A cursed spirit should not be susceptible to getting nuked.
      As for JoJo, that's even MORE interesting, because no, NOT just Stands can harm other Stands. Stands are also susceptible to interaction with Spirits due to being on the same "wavelength", as well as being susceptible to Hax such as Time and Space manipulation. Ichigo Kurosaki WOULD be able to see and touch Star Platinum. And that makes their specific matchup more interesting, because although they have very different powersets, they CAN interact in a meaningful way based on all established rules of both verses.
      Megumi vs Pre-Timeskip Sasuke is EXPLICITLY more interesting for me BECAUSE Sasuke cannot see the Ten Shadows and instead would have to use the Sharingan to, say, read the flow of the wind *around* the Shikigami in order to dodge. It creates a dilemma for Sasuke to overcome instead of just saying "here ya go lil bro, you can have this one free" and allowing him to just Chidori those mfs even though he logically would not be able to do that.

      Hell, I ESPECIALLY love using characters like Yuji Itadori in VS debates due to their extensive Soul Hax. Could Yuji see Stands? I believe he could, since he explicitly is stated to be able to see the contours of the soul, AND because he can harm the soul with his Cursed Energy. Similar question for One Piece, could Yuji harm Logia users? Probably, but not in the same way as Haki users, he'd just be punching the element and still interacting with it AS the element it is but causing damage to the souls of the users in the process. Similar to the difference between Haki users and Brook's interactions with Big Mom's Homies. I much, much, MUCH prefer imagining Yuji having to fight through the burning feeling on his hands to punch Ace while Ace is confused how someone without Haki can harm him as opposed to just "Cursed Energy = Haki, the end".
      It is far more narratively intriguing to imagine how a character would work AROUND the discrepancies in power systems. I can imagine fight scenes and character interactions that are much more investing because of this. Asta would beat Deku, but not because he can randomly use Anti-Magic against Quirks, rather he'd have to rely on his superior stats and techniques in order to win.

Even characters with extra sensory abilities shouldn't be able to see jogo, because you would have to "verse equalize" the ghosts that those characters see to the cursed spirits of jjk. In your Ichigo vs jojo example, you are verse equalising jojo's spirits to bleach spirits, but they don't share any mechanics, they just have the same name/ core concept "being a ghost". It seems to me you are already verse equalising, no?

    One form verse equalization I could agree with, is imagining that the characters live in the same universe, such that both characters have the baseline traits of each others' verses while their own power systems still function separately as normal.
    For example if you took Gojo and Kakashi:
    Gojo would have a chakra network by virtue of being a human from earth, but would have no use for it.
    Likewise Kakashi would have cursed energy with zero ability in utilizing it.

Not as a full versus battle, just a short hypothetical what would happen scenario.

    Verse-equalization is inherently the wrong term anyway, it should be called powersystem-equalization. Verse-equalization should be when the world's both characters inhabit are considered the same, like in gojo v makima you make them be from the same japan to keep makima's contract with the prime minister and simultaneously have everyone in the world have cursed energy so gojo's domain can target makima. Both gain something from it and it becomes a more interesting fight. If it's unfair towards one of the characters, DON'T DO IT.

    I didn't realize there such a difference in what people think in terms of what verse equalization means.
    like in my eyes ofc the byakugan would be virtually useless outside of the narutoverse since not many other verses have a "power network" that works similarly.
    but Haki and chakra would work in similar ways since they are both a form of spiritual energy.
    Basically in my eyes of verse equalization, if they don't have it in their show, they don't get it in the fight, and different power systems can mingle if they work in similar ways. If a OP character runs out of haki, he doesn't die, but if a Naruto character runs out of chakra, they die.
    certain things can get a little tricky to work out (if you have to reach to make it work, then its best to just say no.), but I find it makes the fight more enjoyable to think about

    For Problem #1, this isn't always the case. An example would be Kisame vs Gojo. The benefit for Kisame is that he would be able to aborb Infinity and hit Gojo. The benefits for Gojo would be that he can now analyze Kisame's techniques and Unlimited Void now works on him (assuming you don't think it works on people without Cursed Energy). It's also a way to make unfair circumstances fair. It's not really an interesting debate if it's just something like Sakura vs Rukia. "Oh, well Sakura can't see Rukia, so big L." That's stupid and lacks all nuance, thus Verse Equalization needs to come into play to make it a better discussion. For Problem #2, Asta for the most part should just be common sense. If he doesn't have any of the energy of his own verse, it makes no sense to give him another in another verse, because he wouldn't be able to use it either way. For Problem #3, most of this just comes down to common sense, but I agree sometimes it can be a bit hard to say how something would work against another. But like for example, if Ryu fired off a Granite Blast (a blast of pure Cursed Energy) at Nagato, through Verse Equalization, he would be able to absorb it since the Preta Path can absorb Chakra and Chakra equals Cursed Energy. Not something too hard to wrap your head around. Stuff like Haki and Devil Fruits are a bit more complicated especially since I haven't watched/read up to that point in One Piece yet so I can feel you on that. Some of your points for this problem aren't really that hard to answer if you think about it for more than 2 seconds though. For the Gojo analyzing One For All, that's more of an in-verse question than an out of verse one, since it's been debated how Gojo's Six Eyes work in that aspect, but it's more than likely that Gojo doesn't just know what your Cursed Technique does as soon as he looks at you, as was proven when he didn't know that Kenjaku was using his Body Swap technique on Geto. It probably just helps him deduce what a Cursed Technique does. The Kisame and Gojo thing is also an in-verse thing since of course if Infinity is made out of chakra, Samehada can absorb it, but there are debatea whether or not it's just pure spatial manipulation since it doesn't have any Cursed Energy that people can see. Sukuna wouldn't need to learn how to fly since he can already grab off the air. It seems like you put a lot of thought into this and while I disagree that Verse Equalization is bad as it makes for a less nuanced discussion I understand that with the content you do with One Piece in particular it can definitely throw a wrench in the works. I'm not even opposed to not doing Verse Equalization as it's interesting to see both sides of the coin, even if it's less interesting for me personally.

    Reiatsu is even more iffy, since it works like a power and anti power system at the same time, hax and stats included, something that other power systems don't have, being merely a big number factor or a differencial quirk of the character.

    • @sternritter8532
      @sternritter8532 21 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Agreed, Reiatsu can act somewhat like Conqueror Haki or Ki in terms of negging a much much weaker foe or their ability. It can be used as both AP and DC. It has residual effects like leaving trail prints, damage on foes, or even healing. Depending on one's Reiryoku level will vary and reflect on their Reiatsu nature. It is a part of Bleach's toolkit.
      Also, it isn't like Chakra, relying on your opponent to have a Chakra network for your abilities to work on like genjutsu. Bleach should do fairly well in a non-equalized fight.

    I guess I take the stance (as I almost always do) of moderation in everything.
    Complete verse equalization is dumb.
    Zero verse equalization is also dumb.
    There's no way to decide on the perfect point where it should lie, but I prefer to base it off the "feel" of the abilities.
    To put it bluntly, I would abandon logic, which is also dumb.
    Logia are invulnerable to conventional attacks, but would probably get harmed by a magic sword. Why? Because in verse, logia are invulnerable to conventional attacks, but can get harmed by special attacks.
    Does conqueror's Haki one shot everyone? No. Strong willed people can withstand being near conqueror's haki without possessing it themselves. People from other verses would have that same level of passive defense, and could probably even contest a directed blast -- they just can't use it offensively. Does that make logical sense? No. But it makes narrative sense.
    You could say that makes all of the fights subjective. I'd say that they always were.

    Along with haki there are the fruit property counters. Luffy could hit Enel because of the inherent rock paper scissors nature of rubber vs electricity. Proper technique could counter things. Like that water prison jutsu that zabuza used on kakashi would easily defeat any devil fruit user, if it lands, but they could still just dodge it.

    Alright so I have a question for you then: How does anyone who doesn’t have spiritual pressure not get immediately vaporized when getting near Ichigo? There are ways of sensing him sure but in canon the only way of stopping something like that is to have near equal spiritual pressure yourself or to be on the same or higher tier of existence.
    Most of the time VE isn’t mean’t to give anyone an advantage, but allow the characters to interact in the first place
    P.S.: I guarantee you even with VE no one with a Rinnegan is absorbing a full power Kamehameha from Goku

      "Alright so I have a question for you then: How does anyone who doesn’t have spiritual pressure not get immediately vaporized when getting near Ichigo?" They don't. Ichigo sweeps. How is this a difficult question? How does anyone hit Gojo through infinite space? How does anyone not get screwed by All Fiction? How does anyone hit the Flash?
      Just because you don't value aspects of a character doesn't mean you get to take them away for the sake of nerfing them into arguably losing to your favorite. Ichigo casually wipes Goku out of existence, sucks to suck. If you're going to include every aspect of a character to make a realistic versus- you have to accept that some verses have characteristics that make them impossible to beat.
      As for your post scirpt- the Rinnegan doesn't have a limit to how much it can absorb, it stops the attack before absorbing it. As seen when the path of pain with that ability stops the rasenshuriken in it's tracks while absorbing it. So yes they could absorb all of Goku's Ki as he blasts them with a full power Kamehameha with VE. Which is dumb. Ki does not work like Chakra, you can't overload yourself with Chakra unless you're absorbing sage charkra and corrupted by it, or are a robot with built in limits. The Rinnegan has neither of these issues against a Chakra Kamehameha. But in DBZ we clearly see a Ki absorber get blown up by absorbing too much ki.
      Even if we take the garbage Boruto examples into account- there didn't seem to be any sort of limit to what the movie villain could absorb as long as their hand eye faced the jutsu.
      And even with all of that, what you should be more concerned with is what happens if we put either of the 10 tails Jinjuriki against anyone else with VE. If EVERYONE is using Chakra and Ninjutsu, 10 tails Obito becomes completely immortal, as he was 100% immune to ninjutsu and chakra that wasn't sage jutsu or nature chakra.

      @@lususnaturae881 except if you apply one thing you have to apply the other with VE and in Dragon Ball characters can straight up negate hax with sheer strength of ki. And even if you do want to say that it can absorb ki infinitely, that doesn’t equate to negating the speed of the attack, the destructive potency of the attack, nor does it mean that the path would be able to handle the power that it absorbs. A full powered kamehameha from goku is a multiversal level attack in potency, we’ve seen nothing in Naruto or Boruto to say that anyone in the show, nevermind the preda path, can handle that level of destructive power.
      Also, I’m more of a fan of Bleach than I am of Dragon Ball or Naruto and without VE Goku could very much still one shot the Bleach Verse except Yhwach

      @@lususnaturae881 Different circumstances.
      Ichigo would solo every verse solely because they don’t have his power system. The same mechanics of which make him impossible to touch or interact with at all, meaning we cannot discuss fights with Ichigo against any other story, regardless of if they literally can see ghosts or not, cause it’s not Reiatsu.
      That’s stupid. It’s the exact problem everyone complains about Verse Equality with- like, you’re pretending a special technique that’s mechanics work regardless of the powers of the opponent is comparable in example to victory that literally only derived from this being a cross verse discussion. It’s obviously dishonest, because it takes a sliver of reasoning ability to recognize that, given both characters have powers that map onto one another conceptually, there’s no reason they cannot interact according to the mechanics and tactics that are in-character. Goku would never bother casting a fireball even if he could do so, cause he never displayed that ability (outside of the time he could breathe fire in GT as a Golden Ape). He doesn’t need to copy the Rasengan either, cause he already routinely puts a ball of Ki in his hand and pushes it into you. He might be able to make his own Ki version of the Rasengan, but it’d be using his own powers.
      Your reasoning sucks, because a proper usage of verse equality would never give characters abilities they would never use. 😂 nor does it enable anything other than the fact that they can see, fight, and affect one another under the normal circumstances that anyone else in their world (without their power system’s mechanics) would be affected.

    • @lususnaturae881
      @lususnaturae881 21 วันที่ผ่านมา

      No he wouldn't. Macrocasm is an insane fan theory, the DBZ universe is not infinite in size and it's not 3 infinite sized worlds and Goku is NOT capable of shaking the universe. That is Beerus, and Goku is FAR weaker than Beerus and likely always will be. You cannot scale Goku to the guy who casually defeats him. EVEN IF YOU DID his punches STILL wouldn't bypass infinity because you CAN'T BYPASS INFINITY. That's not how LOGIC works.
      If you attack with infinite force into a infinite corridor, it will never exceed the corridor, If you attack with infinite force, +1, you STILL won't bypass the infinite corridor because INFINITY IS INFINITE. INFINITY +10000000000000000000000 or INFINITY + INFINITY IS STILL EQUAL TO INFINITY. You're dividing by zero.
      This is why Goku is a shit character. He casually does shit that people argue completely breaks reality and logic like he's a gag character and people still think he should be taken seriously. Dude's been getting power ups beyond what his fans call infinite power. Which is so dumb it hurts. He's Bugs Bunny with a fandom who sucks his dick.
      He hasn't done anything feat wise truly more impressive since Dragon Ball with the original Kamhameha. Sure they talk all this shit about "oooo he could do this he could do that, he could blow up the world! NO. HIS FIGHTS MAY DESTROY THE UNIVERSE" yet NOTHING bigger than a mountain EVER gets destroyed during a fight. It's always all talk no consequences. Given how clearly stupid the world of Dragon Ball is to the point they mistake 50 minutes with 5 minutes, I'm inclined to believe everything ever said about Goku is complete bullshit.

    I think it comes down to how fundamental the power interaction is. For example, Orochi can copy martial arts. This obviously means he can copy other universes styles if they're purely physical, but what about Haki and Chakra? He can copy styles that require an understanding of the flow of the universe as well as copying also working on Metal Bat's fighting spirit, so should logically work on Haki. But Chakra? That requires a great deal of specific esoteric knowledge regardless of skill level.
    Haki is more fundamentally just spirit/will manifestation while Chakra is more esoteric and specific.
    Again, it's down to how fundamentally similar they are.

    I don’t know who y’all are talking to or debating with but seasoned debaters, and honest debaters know that verse equalization means that the respective power systems become effective against each other and nothing more. For the sake of this argument let’s say Naruto and Asta fought in this fight Naruto has higher AP with them having similar speed. (BTW I’m using Six Paths Naruto and Post Elf Arc Asta. Follow with me it doesn’t necessarily matter who you think is stronger/faster.) Anyway Asta’s main gimmick is to negate and absorb magic/negate durability/precognition however Naruto doesn’t use magic meaning one of Asta’s main gimmicks doesn’t do anything however Naruto’s whole thing is to be able to negate durability, existence erasure, multiple layers of precognition, mind hax and being punch/kick merchant/stamina monster. Now Asta has one win condition while Naruto has three without me bringing up his ability to spam clones nigh equal to himself in strength. With verse equalization Asta now gets access to his full power set now being able to absorb/negate ninjutsu HE DOESN’T get access to any ability he did not already have. Here’s the thing right in nearly every example you’ve given as to why verse equalization is bad I can argue the opposite. Not only that in anime like Naruto where a character has to face abilities similar to another cross universe ability they’d be able to resist or counter that ability. For example Naruto has fought people who can absorb his energy so what does he do? Throw feints use misdirection so they can’t win so easily. Examples include his fight against Pain, Delta, Ishikki, Momoshiki, Sasuke, and Toneri/Kaguya. He’s found a way to effectively counteract people who can negate energy based attacks. Not only that I could argue Asta absorbing Naruto’s Energy would poison him as shown during the Pain fight, and Kurama’s chakra is also shown to be poisonous burning the skin if he doesn’t like you or wants it to harm you.
