Can Gokuism sense Chakra Energy (Naruto)

we dont know if they are similar enough and the debate is very controversial
Well the official rule is as follows
Verse equalization: Similar supernatural aspects of verses get equalized in a reasonable fashion. So a supernatural energy that almost everyone in a Verse has, which is necessary to fight the characters of said Verse, will be assumed to be the equivalent energy that the opponents use in their techniques so that a proper fight can happen.

Furthermore, attacks that require a special type of energy to be effective, like anti-magic requiring magic, will be assumed to work against the energies of different Verses, as long as they are somehow similar and the mechanics are somehow compatible with the known mechanics behind the energies from different Verses. For example, mind control resistance by being a capable mind user would also work against other Verses, but mind control resistance through a strong will would not necessarily work against mind control from other Verses. It is also important to note that characters won't lose or gain any abilities or resistances which they do or do not inherently possess. However, if an ability has a weakness, condition, caveat, or limitation, consistently shown throughout its use (such as not working on characters under a specific condition, like energy gap) or stated by a valid and uncontradicted statement, then it should be applicable after the equalization.

Equalization works highly on a case-by-case basis, so many relevant cases should be discussed in the versus thread itself.
If you can prove they work similarly mechanically then they would be considered useable for verse equalization
  • DC and Marvel's magic would fall under verse equalization because they're treated pretty similar
  • Marvel's magic wouldn't be equalized with DB's ki, because they operate too differently
  • DB's Ki would be equalized with Ranma's Chi because mechanically they operate as the same spiritual energy
Chakra's a bit weird though, like with Nen. Ultimately as a mod, the major points would be as follows:
  • They exist in similar states in the world (i.e. things that have Chakra in Naruto will match things that have Ki in DB)
  • They can be used for similar things such as energy attacks, enhancements, or abilities
  • They have similar functions in both worlds
  • How the user gains or loses the power is similar
If you can prove most/all of those then it can probably be equalized.
