Black Clover General Discussion thread

Just gonna put this out there, since this has been bugging me for a little while. There should be a revision for ki. Ki equaling chi manipulation on our page is incorrect considering it doesn't even abide for our standards of "chi manipulation" while the description for magical power does since its directly been called life force, unlike ki.

There should be a clear separation between ki and life force/chi manipulation since the manga treats then as two different things, and have been shown to do so. I suspect our current stands of ki= chi manipulation is a result of a mistranslation, which is name fallacy. For starters Inanimate objects, as in things that aren't even alive posses ki, which should have been a red flag.

The three times life force has been called ki were in fact is mistranslations, and use an entirelly different term which is made much clearer in the raws. Much similar to when we discovered viz incorrectly translated "mana" as magical power despote being different things.

Thoughts?
