Giving Aizen power null resistance

Im gonna ignore that because I already addressed that within the thread and what you did was just repeating yourself.
So you refuse to actually address my point which you have not actually argued against beyond being wilfully ignorant.
You were using the lack of evidence to support your argument which is fallacious, and the fallacy is called argument from ignorance. I don't think i have to explain why that doesn't work do i? Specifically you said "none of them were stated to weaken his zanpakuto", which doesn't necessarily mean the seals removed weren't ones that weakened his zanpakuto.

All we know is that these seals heavily weaken the power of zanpakutos, and then after Aizen removed several seals, he was able to use his ability.
That’s not an argument from ignorance at all. For me to be arguing from ignorance, I have to be the one making the claim. I’m not. I read the scans and said what’s on them. You are the one making the claim by conflating the seals of Muken to the ones on Aizen and saying that Aizen’s seals weaken Zanpakuto powers when those seals already have stated functions.

I did, and its simply a manner of scrolling up to see my response to that, and instead of properly refuting what I said, you decided to appeal to an argument of repetition.

You did make a claim, you implied because they are only shown to restrict sight movement and speech and not stated to be the one weakening his zanpakuto, therefore those seals couldn't have possibly also weakened his zanpakuto, which is fallacious as explained before.

And I never claimed that the seals removed or taken away, all I am saying theres a possibility one of the seals broken could be one on his Zanpakuto.
 
So, someone else who was put in Muken and sealed couldn't use his Zanpakuto because of said seals, which are stated to weaken zanpakutos to the point of not being used.

Aizen's seals were stated to restrict his Reiatsu, his sight, his movement, basically everything he can do. Is there some strict difference between the seals that would mean none of Aizen's weakened his zanpakuto? I feel like it wouldn't be a massive assumption to say that they would put countermeasures to his overpowered Zanpakuto on him.

Everyone knows how terrifying it is at this point anyway.

there are basically 2 seals

the seals on his body which restrict his movements and reiatsu

then the seals on muken itself which are the ones stated to make zanpakuto useless
 
Well if that's the case, then Aizen shouldn't get it unless he used Kyoka in Muken. But if Yhwach negs things and Aizen used it anyway, it's probably still fine.
 
he did use it in muken, did it to Yhwach when he tried to recruit him.
im so fkn lazy i need to make it a habit to post scans

I think it's just a fault with the sealing itself. I think he's too strong for it to completely work.
I would disagree. The seals on himself kept him there and he still needed some of them to be removed before he could fully act, aka when Shunsui took some off and he broke out of the rest. Unless I'm misremembering, then he used them before he got out of the seals.
 
Yea but he gets stronger over time even in muken as kisuke stated in wouldn't be surprised of his goal was to wait a couple hundred years till he would be able to break himself free
 
Another necro, but I think this has garnered enough agreement to add. Aizen’s profile is unlocked so can I add it?
 
Looks more like a case of Aizen just being way stronger than the guys whose powers can be weakened to the point of being unable to make effective use of them.

One can brute force through (regular) powernull, after all.

You can’t.

You have to prove the power null has a specific weakness that it can be brute forced through. That hasn’t been proven of the Muken seals.
 
Yeah there is no indication that you can just brute force through the seals. It’s not like the seals are another Shinigami, the reiatsu power null is not at all applicable here.

Ehm, no. Unless the powernull has some specific mechanics that justify it 7-B powernull can't be claimed to work on a 3-A character, for example.

To quote the power nullification page: "It is to be assumed that any negation power has its limitations based on the strongest thing it has nullified"

So yeah, Aizen is like a billion times more powerful than anything those seals have ever suppressed, isn't he?

Mayuri and Kisuke are stated capable of using technology on Aizen level opponents in the CFYOW novels. So no Aizen can’t brute force his way through Mayuri’s tech.

For 1, there’s the next piece of that same paragraph: and a character may be resistant to the ability (at least in one of its forms), preventing it from having its usual effects.

I take it to mean that both of these things can be true of one character, meaning they warrant the resistance. This obviously applies to Aizen.

As Arc said, Bleach tech (which include the Muken seals) such as the reiatsu seals can affect Aizen and people relative to him. It’s more likely this is a straight resistance feat since Aizen really isn’t >>>>>> Bleach Tech.

Both things can be true, but obviously you need proof if you want to show that it is resistance and not just overpowering it. Overpowering it alone doesn't warrant the resistance.
Mayuri and Kisuke are stated capable of using technology on Aizen level opponents in the CFYOW novels. So no Aizen can’t brute force his way through Mayuri’s tech.
The fact that he could use it basically proves that the technology did, in fact, not reach his level. If it did he wouldn't have been able to use it.

No I don’t? We’re given no indication this is a power related thing. Other bleach tech can work on Aizen and his equals, which would support that he can’t simply brute force his way past tech. There’s more reason to treat this as resistance than anything else based on the evidence. I’m pretty sure we normally assume resistance as opposed to overpowering anyway, but if this doesn’t go through then whatever, it’s not a major arg of mine.
The fact that he could get out basically proves that the technology did, in fact, not reach his level. If it did he wouldn't have been able to escape.
They had to release part of the seals in order for him to do that. Aizen can’t break out from the full powered tech on his own, proving its on his level.

Sorry for the double post, but my previous post misinterpreted this and may create more confusion, so i’l clarify. You’re trying to say that because Aizen used his sword bleach tech doesn’t scale to him. The seals that power null (which is why we’re suggesting resistance, the ones in Muken) are not the same seals that restrain Aizen’s reiatsu (the ones he can’t break out of without help, His black suit). You’re response is not a defeater. What we’re trying to say is that Aizen can’t brute force his way through Bleach tech, so it has to be resistance.

Edit: Before this is brought up, Occam’s razor tells us that we should treat both tech similarly in power 🗿. It’s simplest to say they’re relative as it’s the same nation and same people who made them both.
 
With DT's logic we might as well remove hax resistance from half the wiki.

I can name countless characters who resisted hax that was only shown to work on weaker characters and still got resistance.
Not every powernull is hax and two wrongs don't make a right.

What you are arguing here is mere lack of counter evidence. No proof of it being the case. As you carry the burden of proof you need more than that.

And heck, we have counter-evidence. It literally is a thing that weakens powers, not nullifies them. The Azashiro guy explicitly could still use parts of his power. If that guy could use even 1% of his power despite the stuff, than Aizen, being a billion times more powerful, have more than enough of his power left. 1% of a billion is still 10 million, after all.

They had to release part of the seals in order for him to do that. Aizen can’t break out from the full powered tech on his own, proving its on his level.
Which proves absolutely nothing about the comparison to the not fully powered tech in which he could do the things he did.

Like, literally comparision to any other character on Aizens level would work as evidence, but "The tech powerful enough to contain Aizen couldn't contain Aizen, so he has resistance" makes no sense. Either it can hold him or not. Can't have both at once.
 
It could contain Aizen’s power, it couldn’t contain his hax it’s rather simple. Have you read through CFYOW?
Being real for a second. I f****** hate when people say this. No, there are people who haven't read it, which is why you as the knowledge user post the damn scan! This "have you read [insert thing here]?" question is stupid because you know the answer. Half of the stuff people comment on be it a staff member or a normal member is verses they don't know which is why context is needed otherwise people can add whatever they desire under the logic of "I know it and you don't".

Idk why this conversation is even occurring, tmk we never treat AP as a determinant in hax (obviously unless the specific instance says AP > hax, but nothing indicates such here), do we accept that 7-A’s can’t hax 5-B’s here or sumn? Cuz last I checked we didnt
Also, let's drop the argument of other hax, not working on stronger people as some sort of counter argument. Power Nullification is a haxed ability that "at times" requires more evidence in regards to what it does and how effective it is, for example. I nullified an explosion from a grenade, does this mean I'd be able to nullify an explosion that would destroy the universe? No, that reaches NLF. It's all about the abilities showings in this example. It's different from let's say Blood Manipulation because blood is blood, be it from a Tier 10 character to a Tier 2 character. If I can pull the blood out of one of said characters body, I can do it too the other as it has no connection to power in general. Now this isn't to say all power nullification is like this, but there clearly is a need for feats when dealing with specific kinds.

In the case of Aizen, I already said I think it's fine but that doesn't mean Don'tTalk's argument is completely invalid.

Also, just in case there is no confuse, I'm no saying Arc used the "did you read" argument to discredit Don'tTalk, that was just my general issue with the use of it. And I'd like to apologize if my comment came off as though I was targeting anyone, I only comment because I was asked two and to explain an issue.

Eh. I don’t think this is really analagous. The Muken seals null powers that aren’t really AP based, and straight up doesn’t null AP. You’re analogy has an ability that nulls AP trying to null potentially Tier 2 AP. I don’t think it’s an NLF to say a 10-B’s power null could work on a 5-B’s abilities if it’s an ability based null as it logically shouldn’t work in relation to AP, and the 5-B thus wouldn’t be able to resist it without feats, whilst yours would be NLF on the powernull. It’s as you said, all in the mechanics. The 5-B 10-B analogy I presented is more apt here than your analogy.

TL;DR: I don’t think the powernull of the Muken seal really work based on AP. It’s stated to null Zanpakuto powers, not AP, so Aizen not being affected isn’t due to AP, but rather resistance. It’s also never stated the Muken nulling seals can be overcome through AP. It wouldn’t make sense for an ability based null to relate to AP without further proof.

Not a specific response to you per say, but a general note for the thread.

That's why I said "at times" and not all power null is the same. My analogy was literally based around AP, not the Aizen that you used. I was explaining the argument regarding those trying to compare hax to AP in general to show the difference. I have no issue with Aizen resisting the seals.
