And this is the reason power escalation I fear will become an issue down the road. And things are gonna get OP silly like the War Arc which was the low point of Naruto for me. Anyway gotta go eat dinner, be back soon
Hmmm, well that's quantitative power escalation, which does get choppy like in DBZ, what I consider OP is qualitative power escalation, where it's not just a matter of figures and numbers to determine how strong someone is.
For example between general views of Super-speed, and Campione's concept of Godspeed, I'd chose godspeed any day. Godspeed doesn't actually influence your 'speed' at all, what it does is, and a paraphrase from memory,
Reduce the time it takes to go from Point A to Point B. Essentially, it's a very specific form of time manipulation. So what if you can run a kajillion miles per fraction of a second? You'd never really be able to outspeed a user of Godspeed because they'd reach to 'a Point B', say the sun, from a 'point A', earth, in an infinitesimally small amount of time by simply adding 0's to the right of the decimal point.
They never really have a constant 'speed' because they manipulate is essentially time.
Of course, within the confines of the world, no one is running from America to Europe in one femtosecond even though it's theoretically possible. So it's an OP ability with the extremes simply ruled out.
Stupidly strong abilities are anything like Casuality manipulation, which distorts cause and effect.
Take a few statements with a cause and an effect.
Cause - Wystria thrust her spear forward.
Effect - Kevin is stabbed.
Now invert them
Cause - Kevin is stabbed.
Effect - Wystria thrust her spear forward.
Since Kevin getting stabbed becomes the cause of the event, it must chronologically have come before Wyst thrust her spear. Since he would've been stabbed before he thrust her spear, her spear thrust hence becomes undodgeable because the effect now precedes the cause. This is simply the lowest level of Casuality manipulation that only takes two directly related events. Add even more events and form complex sequences and you have someone who's essentially unstoppable unless confronted by someone with a power that is just as hax.
Wyst thrust her spear forward
Kevin is stabbed
Kevin is stabbed
The heart is pierced
The heart is pierced
Kevin dies
Using three sequences of cause-effect and manipulating them all you hence have a situation where the cause is 'death' and the effect is the 'attack'. Using the same logic, because his death is the cause it must've happened first and hence you've died before the person has even attacked.
Casuality manipulation is particularly OP because it allows the wielder to dictation events without a
Why because why is usually determined by Casuality itself. E.g. You left the stove on and your house burnt down.
Leaving the stove on is the cause, and the effect is the house burning down.
Since it ends up warping everything from time-space, to logic and reasoning, it becomes an insanely BS power.
Though of course, you can also take something as simple as flame manipulation and push it to an unreasonable extreme to create a stupidly strong ability. Since it requires energy to break chemical and atomic bonds (They conversely release energy to form bonds) you'd simply have to magnify the heat of the flame to the point where it forces things around it to enter a state of Heat Decomposition.
Now you have a flame manipulation ability that essentially forces things to break down on the molecular level.
The hax are everywhere :v
What you really need is just people who use abilities reasonably.
Where is Furijia right now anyways Kyuu
I haven't decided, she's likely at the Hyūga mansion since there'd be no reason to carry a genin to face off with the Yuki clan.
