You say it was his soul/spirit.I continue to maintain that whether or not Zamasu's spirit was called his will or not, it is still a spirit, and it would set a terrible precedent to automatically give every spiritual entity in the wiki, including ghosts, abstract existence if we allow this. That is a far more important issue than if Zamasu himself gets a minor ability addition, which some of you seem to obsess about.
Zamasu was also clearly portrayed to have a physical form that could be attacked via force blasts in the story, if said force expansion was large and powerful enough.
Also, I am personally fine with if a few regular members with suffiently high-quality arguments comment here, but they should do so sparsely, as we want to avoid the extreme spam of the last thread, and focus on getting our staff to comment here.
audible sigh
As far as Acausality Type 4 is concerned, how?You can be as passive aggressive as you want, preferably off the thread. Doesn't change the fact that if it isn't supported then it isn't to be used at any point.
Again, stop this ad nauseum argument. No amount of repetitive sarcasm will make you correct.
Zamasu for the last time isn't a soulI got permission from Antvasima to post in this thread.
I disagree with giving AE to Zamasu, because simply existing as a mind or will and taking over the universe is not enough to qualify for it, as Zamasu's disembodied soul/mind is not either conceptual nor metaphysical in nature, which is seemigly what is needed to qualify for AE according to this thread.
Also, accroding to the Abstract Existence Page on the wikia:
"Abstract Existence is the ability to embody an abstraction, such as a concept, thought, or information, and being immortal thanks to it"
As Zamasu was just a soul as he took over the universe to become Infinite Zamasu, he doesn't qualify for any of the abstractions shown here
To be honest, you should prove he is physical as Infinite Zamasu, not just because you see it as physicalDon't see how this is anything more than Incorporeality. If even that, considering Zamasu was very much physical when he engulfed Earth.
1. No one argued he become a concept in the first place, so this argument of your is pointlessI disagree with giving AE to Zamasu, because simply existing as a mind or will and taking over the universe is not enough to qualify for it, as Zamasu's disembodied soul/mind is not either conceptual nor metaphysical in nature, which is seemigly what is needed to qualify for AE according to this thread.

well it is artbook, but again i forgot the wording thoughWhat data book?
this one comes from artbook within Blu ray volume 6 box
ใใฉใณใฏในใซๅใ่ฃใใใๅไฝใถใในใ ใฃใใใใใฎๅฟตใฏ็ฉบใธใจ่ใไธใใๅฐ็ๅ จไฝใๅ ใฟ่พผใใ ใ
Exactly.Don't see how this is anything more than Incorporeality. If even that, considering Zamasu was very much physical when he engulfed Earth.
Using a website is one thing but an art installment from a DVD casewell it is artbook, but again i forgot the wording though
1. I don't like that attitude of your and the way you comment to be honest, but again what matter of using source from artbook which including in offical Blu-ray Disk Box, it is not like we use illegal or fanon/non-canon source to back-up our pointUsing a website is one thing but an art installment from a DVD case
Tell me about acausality type 4
2. A will is not a thought, but it's closer to an emotion, much like anger and fear1. No one argued he become a concept in the first place, so this argument of your is pointless
2. According to the AE page itself, being Will which is Thought itself is Abstract in nature
3. Again like everyone else against this, so you should prove it is his soul, as in the anime episode itself no one stated IZ was Zamasu's soul, and Toei Timeline, Databook state it was his Will, so we have 2 sources stated it is his will while no anti-statement come from anime itself. IZ will not be a soul just because you and other said so
The other suggestions in the OP that arenโt abstract existence.1. I don't like that attitude of your and the way you comment to be honest, but again what matter of using source from artbook which including in offical Blu-ray Disk Box, it is not like we use illegal or fanon/non-canon source to back-up our point
2. We don't even debate Acausal Type 4 from the start, what is your point????
So what your new reason then, you not even debunk anything in your previous points which me and other have been pointed outThe other suggestions in the OP that arenโt abstract existence.
1. But also nothing stated about when a DB character die they must be reduced to soul.....so again you should prove that IZ is Zamasu's soulIdk why people are trying to say because itโs not stated to be a soul in the show, that itโs something even more abstract and smaller than a soul that wasnโt stated in the show, when itโs is literally universal law that anybody that dies becomes a spirit/soul.
Select individuals are allowed to keep their body such as Elder Kai, but no gods are alive in that timeline except for those associated with Zeno.
Now...about acausality.
So AE being can't have physical state, avatar, or vessel, iirc they can have it.I don't think the change in Abstract Existence page is needed; I think counterarguments are possibly enough to come to a conclusion.
- In this case Zamasu was clearly portrayed as the physical universe in his ascended state, not as anything more than that.
- Fair. Zamasu's will might have Abstract Existence Type 1 by the current definition as a thought and emotion from the kanji (ๅฟต). When his will fused with the universe, the case might be different. I do think fusionism would make the judgment on a case-by-case basis since Fusion can lose specific powers of their fusees in fiction if they don't share their nature like Fusion Zamasu having a lesser regeneration than Future Zamasu. So, I am neutral.
Hum, No, he never show the ability to exist as a pure thought before, but again it is hardly a debunk as his final state is IZ which is stated by 2 different sources as is Zamasu's Will and Thought, which we all known is to spread his justice. And no anti-statement by anime itselfAlso did Zamasu ever show the ability to exist as pure thought alone? If he took over the universe that's not abstract existence, since time-space isn't considered abstract
You have permission from an admin. But I don't see the reason why you went through the trouble to ask for it when nothing in your post helps this thread? Why did you even post this comment? Was it to make a 3-A Zamasu joke? Or was it to tell everyone that you're just watching? Or was it to say you're neutral? None of it helps the thread. Please only take permission if you have some information you want to present or elaborate on a point.3-A Infinite Zamasu when
And yeah, I have the permission from Abstractions, tho I'm just watching. Neutral on Type 1 AE.
People would be willing to help out more if this didn't turn into a back and forth spam of comments because nobody wants to read all this. People commenting here should understand that if there's anything going to be done and if they want a thread to be evaluated accurately, they need to keep their comments to a minimum and to the point and then wait for the evaluation. It should be easy to figure out after experiencing the last thread in which nothing got done.Would any of you be willing to help out here please?
Anyway, as far as this thread is concerned. I'll try to summarize the scenario from both perspectives here:Do not only focus on the abstract existence issue in that case. It is not the only suggestion.
1. Kami, a god, states everyone that dies goes to the afterlife.1. But also nothing stated about when a DB character die they must be reduced to soul.....so again you should prove that IZ is Zamasu's soul
2. We don't debate about acausality though, that part is iffy and don't have much evidences for it, there could be acausality type 1 for God though but it is vague
So AE being can't have physical state, avatar, or vessel, iirc they can have it.
You can consider thought and awareness in its purest state to be abstractions, but it's questionable whether the mind itself will function like an abstraction in all cases. For example if you use astral projection to send your mind somewhere else does it count as type 1 AE, or when you are being mind controlled are you being controlled at the abstract level? The thing about abstract ideas is that they don't exist in space or can be physically interacted with, they are recognised and propagated, like how information isn't what's written on a piece of paper or a computer screen but what's conveyed through the language. My question is whether the mind in this case is purely an aspatial abstraction
or does it exist as a sort of intangible energy or substance that can travel from place to place in the same manner as a physical object?
I do think existing as purely the mind can sometimes count as AE type 1 but there will be cases where it will be more like an intangible force that drifts from place and can be contained within objects. So it's more a case by case situation
We aren't Philosophy wiki (which is wrong you would actually said we aren't human sciences wiki but ok), but we aren't neither Physic wiki, or math wiki, or geometry wiki, but we still use various principe from them, some are even deep into those "subjects". the argument here is that we are not that so the mistake is justified and we should take it for what we know, this logic reminds me when we still had the old tiering system, anyway no, it's not a justification for making a mistake, if that's a thing wrong is wrong, there is none but nor perhaps.Furthermore, you don't need to have a lot of knowledge to do a little research on what the mind is.The argument of the revision Ant linked was that abstract existence would be too all-encompassing if we use that logic. This isnโt philosophy wiki. I would imagine an unbelievable about of profiles would have it if we didnโt have restrictions.
So simply put, the intent of the term is for characters that embody abstract concepts in a fictional setting, such as infinity, eternity, oblivion, evil, etc, not any and all things that we theorize to be abstract by definition.
Zamasu is the physical universe so it's not his will argument (i didn't find the original message so)
The only wrong point here is that zamasu didn't die, if im not wrong there was proveda above the wog which says that zamasu, instead of regenerating again, he decided to became the universe itself and his will. also if I remember correctly in the Daizenshuu it was said that the souls of the dead, regardless of whether they come from the living kingdom or from the kingdom of demons, are immediately taken to the afterlife and then be judged, which is a support argument of zamasu not being the soul.Idk why people are trying to say because itโs not stated to be a soul in the show, that itโs something even more abstract and smaller than a soul that wasnโt stated in the show, when itโs is literally universal law that anybody that dies becomes a spirit/soul.
He didnโt die completely, but he did experience physical death. Gowasu stated because Zamasu fused with a mortal, that there was an imbalance between his soul and body, a weakness that could be exploited with the right power. Vegeta understands this as his mortal body is having an effect on his immortal one, which is what caused Goku to disfigure Zamasuโs body. Vegito stabs Zamasu with his ki and asks if he is in pain judging by the look on his face, to which Zamasu replies โI am immortal and cannot be defeatedโ, which is clearly a reference to his body. Reminder, Zamasu wished for BODILY immortality. Vegito tells him he isnโt immortal anymore since he fused with black.The only wrong point here is that zamasu didn't die, if im not wrong there was proveda above the wog which says that zamasu, instead of regenerating again, he decided to became the universe itself and his will. also if I remember correctly in the Daizenshuu it was said that the souls of the dead, regardless of whether they come from the living kingdom or from the kingdom of demons, are immediately taken to the afterlife and then be judged, which is a support argument of zamasu not being the soul.
That should be a separate, actual staff-only thread even though it seems it was accepted in the past.Just to clarify: I do not really care about this specific case. My concern is that this will set a precedent that all spiritual beings listed in the wiki should automatically get Abstract Existence instead of Incorporeality.
Also, can somebody summarise the other suggested revisions please?
Abstract existence doesn't have any real justification in my view. It's a mix of incorporeal and fusion/absorption.Would any of you be willing to help out here please
So this time you are the one cherrypicking dialogue to prove your headcanon despite those points are totally irrelevant to the matter at hand and it can't prove IZ is Zamasu's soul. Also about the part there are no god judge, you need to prove there are actually no God left, Anime mention he only kill Supreme Kai in order to incap God Of Destruction due to the life-link. So your "fact" that Zamasu kill all god is your own made-up fact, the person to judge the soul still there, and nothing mention him being dead that mean he still alive, just not show on-screen.He didnโt die completely, but he did experience physical death. Gowasu stated because Zamasu fused with a mortal, that there was an imbalance between his soul and body, a weakness that could be exploited with the right power. Vegeta understands this as his mortal body is having an effect on his immortal one, which is what caused Goku to disfigure Zamasuโs body. Vegito stabs Zamasu with his ki and asks if he is in pain judging by the look on his face, to which Zamasu replies โI am immortal and cannot be defeatedโ, which is clearly a reference to his body. Reminder, Zamasu wished for BODILY immortality. Vegito tells him he isnโt immortal anymore since he fused with black.
His immortality is shown against Trunks when he does damage with his regular ki blade and his immortality instantly deletes the damage. However once he uses his Sword of Hope and stabs Zamasu, his body canโt heal from that specific attack, and he gets bisected and his body gets destroyed. He had no choice in the matter, he went out screaming. The entire episode was set up to exploit the weakness in Zamasuโs fused body and ultimately destroy it.
The fact that there arenโt any gods to judge Zamasu doesnโt mean that he doesnโt become a soul, because as you said the souls are taken immediately to be judged. A soul that canโt be or isnโt taken simply isnโt judged.
โOld Kai just give his life to Goku, he not truly dieโ
So it kinda confirms what we see on screen, he only really consumed the Earth, but had greater potential.We finally have Qliphoth_Bacikal's translations for art book statement instead of just some machine translations
The fused Zamasu was sliced by Trunks, but their thought flew into the sky, wrapping the entire earth.
No this statement is for that particular moment when he was sliced the artbook with Blu ray box are practically episode summaries and Even in show we saw him affect present timeline and the universeSo it kinda confirms what we see on screen, he only really consumed the Earth, but had greater potential.
So should we go with these solutions then?Abstract existence doesn't have any real justification in my view. It's a mix of incorporeal and fusion/absorption.
I'm also not sure there's any really evidence for Acasual since the timelines are just alt-multiverses rather than being the current universe in the distant past or future.
Supernatural willpower is probably fine.
To correct this, it is Infinite ZamasuI am asking once again.
Being made from abstract components such as will, thoughts, and mind. Embodying those, and being those abstract components. Being stated by the most trustworthy, official source that has the highest authority somehow doesn't give you abstract existence when abstract existence by default is embodying abstract stuff like thoughts, information, and concepts.
We are literally saying the same stuff yet no one listens.
Fused zamasu isn't a soul.
Fused zamasu isn't a spirit.
Fused zamasu is zamasu's will, thoughts and mind.
Being stated that he is zamasu's will by the most trustworthy source.
Fused zamasu is just zamasu's will fusing with the universe, becoming the universe and even invading the present timeline.
at this point, people really are going to stop caring to defend their original points, that if they already haven't giving up.
