It has come to my attention that a thread canonicity needs to be made.which should be easy but who knows.(broken link ๐Ÿ’”)

All we have are a few author notes talking about him being entrusted with writing the sequel.

Which to me just seems like the same case with dragon ball.

You can find the link below. As well as screenshots here


If accepted there will only really be one major change.

*Ragnorock version of jinwoo will be a key on jinwoos current profile. Instead of a whole new profile.

*And will now be able to use context and statements for characters as well as lore and more in depth cosmology.


Og series jinwoo doesnโ€™t scale to ragnorock version in many aspects so the scaling between them wonโ€™t be able to be used as justification unless more evidence is presented.



If it is rejected. Idk how that will work. (Will ragnorocks profile not be able to use og series even though it references it alot?) or would ragnorock be able to use og, but og canโ€™t use ragnorock.

Ex. Ragnorock is canon to og but not vise versa.


This thread needs to be done before most others due to the sheer amount of context and lore about the workings of abilities ragnorock would add to future crts if accepted.

Luffy also has three different profiles, but they're all different eras of the same character.

Jinwoo already has enough confusingly long "Keys". Ragnarok should be a separate profile.

Different character.more supporters,and they decided to have it like that. It makes no sense for a new profile when the only difference will be more abilities. As literally every ability they share will have the same justification.

Just list it as. โ€œAll previous abilities with the addition of theseโ€ instead of making a whole different profile.
 
No idea how to do that imma look around
if you're on desktop it's at the top bar of the screen, you cannot miss it (thus i imagine you aren't on desktop)
on mobile if you open the side menu of the site with 3 lines and scroll to the bottom it's there
 
Why does a canonicity thread need to be made? Isn't it an official sequel?
It is a different author, so I would want to make sure it is accepted as being a sequel before doing anything with it.

The evidence we have is this:

EWNWYVO.png


Daul (writer of Ragnarok) was entrusted to write the sequel by Chugong (The original author)

Ragnarok follows the story of Jinwoo's son, who is introduced at the end of Solo Leveling.

It was also released by the same publisher "PAPYRUS" and serialized on "KAKAO PAGE"

By your logic, so his Boruto then, it's written by a different author too, and Kishimoto said explicitly that he isn't involved with it, yet nobody is saying it's not the sequel of Naruto, I don't even recall anybody wanted to make a thread to prove Boruto canonicity to Naruto.

On my side, yes, it's the canonical continuation of SL story, it's literally start at where the story of the OG novel ended.
 
Peak, telling people to ping a retired staff member.


But honestly, I still don't understand why this thread closed the other one, since they had nothing to do with each other, as the result of that thread will be unaffected
Cause the other thread was argueing with ragnorack scans if I hade to guess

Because if this thread is accepted then I can use the scans with feats from ragnorock.as well as hax for future crts


(Ragnorock scans I was using in the other crt were context based) and not actual feats.
 
They did, but that was not the issue, and claiming such things is just pure misdirection for the core problem.
Not really because the Ragnarok novel had further context to the OG Sl novel, the scans weren't used for feats, although Ragnarok have a lot which is vastly more impressive than the OG SL which is natural since it's the sequel.

I think its fine if its an official work. Though it's probably better to split it off into Ragnarok profiles like we do with other series like Boruto or One Piece.
 
Tbh I don't mind it being a key because it will barely have anything new. Jinwoo doesn't have much screentime at all in the sequel.

I donโ€™t see a reason to do so tbh. There will be almost no differences between any profile made .

If for example Antares profile of ragnorock was made,there would be almost no differences between the ragnorock version and the og series.

If they are split,it would lead to the situation where

Og series is like island level and ragnorock is low multi even though ragnorock Antares is weaker than og series.

Ragnorock isnโ€™t really another story,it is a continuation of what was happening just from Suhoโ€™s perspective.
So all the lore from the og is included. Including the powers.

Splitting them would lead to the contradiction of people who SHOULD be weaker, and directly stated to be weaker due to losing their powers,outscaling the versions of them that literally have their powers due to the additional context and feats ragnorock adds.


Context: primordial darkness is what gives you power,so when Antares was killed in the OG series ,he lost his primordial darkness and grew weaker. Making him narratively weaker than his original series counterpart.while still having the same lore.

Yet his weaker ragnorock version has more context and feats than in the Og series meaning if profiles are split ,would be inconsistent. Would have to separate the powers he is supposed to have between the profiles.

So I propose that instead,ragnorock is added as a new key..

For Antares it would be

Key:without primordial darkness (this key has a few different abilities due to literally being nonexistent)

Key :riginal series ones.

Alright then, if its not enough for a new profile it can just be a new key
 
Its start of high school so I believe it'd be 14 given my quick Google search cause the twelve years later suho was 6 months old final chapter suho was in high-school
Did a quick google search and apparently Korean high school starts at 15 years old so 15 years

Ya you right google bot lied to me that was 3 chapters before the series actually ended though
Phantom is probably right I just dont recall im waiting for him to send the proof on discord

In that Ragnarok, he does have some few new abilities like Ressurection, he ressurected Antares back into life, void manip, etc.

His tier and speed definitely get far up tho.

He had void manipulation in the original
His armor is manipulation of the void
 
It count as Darkness manip in the Original and in his profile as well
Weird considering its like explained twice darkness to be nothing albeit the gap and the abyss different examples while the abyss has like 3 statements of being a void and nothingness in og but who am I to judge but this is going off the rails and not needed to on this thread

True it's the void in Ragnarok as it highlighted what his power actually is, I was referring to the OG novel where it wasn't as explored

It isnโ€™t explored alot,but it is stated at least 10 times that it is a void and a world of nothingness.
