Welp, figured this was gonna come sooner than later, but before we start, I'd like to thank everyone in the DMC Group for helping out with this entire response, we wouldn't have gotten anywhere without their help, much appreciated. With that out of the way, let's start.
1. Pluto cutting the universe.
This argument has already been debunked
here,
here and
here. So we might as well move onto the next parts of the arguments.
2. Merging feats (Mundus/Argosax) and separation (Sparda)
Mundus: The main argument against his feats are about “it being a chain reaction upon destroying the barrier” which is not only stupid but ignores a lot of points in the series.
To start with, the Demon World has never consumed the human world on its own, the only times something similar happened were dependent on someone to happen (Gilver).
Breaking the barrier does nothing except allowing the demons to cross easily to the human world. The scan they provided says exactly that “
The dimensional wall between the Demon World and Human World can be said to be like a net. High-ranking Demons cannot come to this world unless favourable conditions have been met due to their power, but low-ranking demons are able to easily pass through this net.”
The other scan taken out of DMC 5 says the same thing:
"Time was, these things only appeared on the mortal plane by possessing a wooden doll, lump of clay or something similar. Now? Those creeps walkin' around Red Grave are the genuine article. It's a sign that the barriers between the demon world and the human world are breaking down." Neither of these two scans remotely mention ANYTHING about an auto-merge of both realms, the thing that's most consistent with these two is again, the way they enter the demon world through weaker means.
There is also nothing about the demon world consuming the human world without the barrier. Not only does
nothing happen to the human world once the portal to the demon world opens in DMC 3;
further proven in the end of the game that everything is still the same shortly after the demon world closes at the end of the game, not only does the Hell Gates, which are stated and
shown to be literal gates to the Demon world, not cause any form of merging/consuming whatsoever in any part of fortuna compared to how it was originally, but the Qliphoth tree,
which is stated to have broken the dimensional barrier in DMC 5,
and has been growing for the span of a month, have not done anything in the human world in terms of actually merging the realms together. The only times the merging was ever done was when Argosax and Mundus were actively trying to do it, so the entire argument of the Demon World automatically merging with the human world makes no sense.
Now, about Vol 2. Dante goes to an alternate universe where Mundus succeeded in his plan and fused the worlds together, it's not just some simple “terraforming”, the world went back to its primal state and as Dante puts it “...it's a halfway place, a realm neither human or demon” - Vol 2 p. 102.
Now that the chain reaction and terraforming arguments are done let's jump to the main part, the fusion. The first scan used says explicitly what Mundus' intent was, to unite the eternal world of darkness with the world of light, this is not only corroborated by DMC4 but “shown” in Vol2, as the world went back to its primal state.
The blog uses the official translation for this but the DMC feat blog already explained how the TL was wonky and a better translation would be something like this “"The king who appeared in the kingdom of darkness said:
"What is wrong with reuniting two worlds that were once one?". From then on, the darkness tried to cover up the light, while the light struggled and tried to escape."
Another TL is here:
だがやがて闇の世に現れた王が言う
元は一つだったこの世界再び統べんとして何が悪い?
その時から闇は光を覆わんとし光は闇から逃れんと抗った
But then a king appeared in the dark world and said.
What's wrong with trying to reunite a world that was once one?
From that moment on, the darkness tried to cover the light, and the light fought to escape the darkness.
Basically, it was all meant to fuse the worlds together and go back to the primal original world. Now onto the last part:
We have an example of the fusion with Argosax, his sole half-sealed power was leaking through the seals and passively fusing the worlds together, basically the power they exuded naturally was enough for it to cause the fusion of the worlds again. With Mundus we can assume he either did it with raw power (like Argosax) or with some reality warping (which still scales to their raw power).
To top it off we have an approximate time frame thanks to all the lore the people at G1 ignored. 2000 years ago is that Mundus was born, rose to power, killed Pluto and became a king, same time in which the whole war started and unless you want to say humans were capable of fighting off demons (which is impossible for normal humans, let alone humans 2k years ago) it all happened extremely fast.
To summarize this:
- Mundus fused the worlds together
- Doesn’t matter what method he used, it is all is his own power which he can use to attack and defend himself, thanks to Demonic Energy, something that they themselves have added to their research of Nero to being legit "scale to physical strength"
- The barrier between the worlds does nothing but keep the demons out of the human world. Or at the very least hinder their full power as they have a pseudo limiter activated when they try to enter the demon world.
- The demon world doesn’t consume the human world automatically, and it needs some sort of external force forcing it to.
Argosax:
For starters, the whole Demon World consuming the human world on its own has already been debunked above.
But the scan is right, the demon world will consume the human world and that’s because of Argosax’s power, his power is leaking and he is breaking the seal already, something you can see at the end of Dante's disk as despite the ritual’s failure argosax breaks the seal.
The scan itself backs this up:
"Matier summons the legendary devil hunter, Dante. Having known his father Sparda in previous years, she is certain that his skills will be necessary to stop the evil and prevent the demon world from consuming our dimension."
Matier knows about Sparda and knows about Dante defeating Mundus, knowing this she decided to call him, call for his power to confront Argosax in case of the seal being broken (which is what happens at the end)
The next part is about the world (which is always used to describe the universes) and earth (to directly say planet), let's be clear, world is always used as the universe, the human universe and the demon universe, and
rarely if ever has it being used as other thing, earth on the other hand is pretty clear, this has been pretty consistent through the years. On the other hand, they also claim it's only the island that is being affected which is wrong,
nowhere in the scans it's stated that the “island is the only thing being affected”.
Now, as to why we can see only part of the island is because it's a game, they didn’t create it to be seen from a space portion or something like that. Doesn’t even matter as the scans they posted itself proves its the human world (universe) that is being corrupted:
“
The world is already warped. Everything that belongs to the devils will eventually revert to its original form. Even you will betray your upbringing and turn on the humans”
Basically the worlds are getting fused into the primal, original world once again this along with the part of “...consuming our dimension” is pretty clear on the meaning and the context. This is the same thing Mundus did.
It was also addressed
here, the original universal upgrade
As proven above, the effects aren’t only in the island so I'm not going to bother with that argument anymore, but let it be clear that Phantom appeared in Mallet island,
something that doesn’t exist anymore since it exploded in DMC1, an island that was far away from anything else as it changes positions all the time, further proving the effects aren’t “island only”.
The effects of the demon world affecting the human world on its own was already debunked above too,
Arius opening a portal is meaningless and irrelevant as
the door was opened at the very end of the game, you know, the one that leads to Argosax while the effects happened all the time without one.
As for the last scan, it never states the island is the only thing in danger, it's only stated that:
1. The protectorate only defends the island, this is further emphasized in Before the Nightmare. The reason why they defend the island is because the gaps in the seal are frequent there and thus demons are able to easily cross in that place, the clan works there to stop any demon that crosses. Before the Nightmare p. 49-50.
2. The original plan was to defend the island from Arius who controls the Uroboros Corporation, the same corporation that controls the island. The idea was to stop Arius and take the arcanas before he was able to do the ritual, Dante fights demons head on while Lucia goes for the Arcanas. This is further explained in the
scan they linked above:
"Lucia has been training under the guidance of her mother and fellow Vidu Mali protector. Matier. Although her skills are still developing, the demons have suddenly invaded Vidu Mali once again. Matier feared this would happen, since the arrival of the evil sorcerer Arius several years before...
Now Matier must find a way to protect vidu Mali from evil once again, but she is too old and her protégé is not yet skilled enough to take on someone as powerful as Arius. Matier Summons the legendary devil hunter, Dante....
While Dante takes on the devils of Arius directly, Matier sends her daughter Lucia to the shrines of Arcana throughout Vidu Mali, in an effort to secure the ceremonial items before they fall into the hands of evil."
So, finally we have Argosax involvement in the whole ordeal and as I have debunked above, the demon world on its own does nothing, there is no chain reaction and the barrier between worlds does absolutely nothing except stop demons. The effects go beyond the island with Phantom and Griffon being prime examples of this, and of course, there is more change than just “the sky going back to normal”.
Once three of the four arcanas are retrieved by lucia is when Argosax starts breaking free from the seal and starts creating the whole fusion, exactly as Mundus did in the past.
The sacrilege does indeed bring the demon world closer to the human world but this is only to get the demons to the island, all the demons that appear there were summoned by Arius and it's very likely he used these items for that. This is shown in the mission 16 with Dante, the longer he uses the items the more demons start flooding the building which is how Arius got his army of demons. This coupled with Argosax fusing the worlds together causes the building to get corrupted,
something we even see in lucia gameplay. In case these things caused the worlds to fuse together, or that the demon world somehow consumed the human world on its own, all this corruption would have occurred ages ago, instead it happened only when Argosax power was leaking, breaking free from his seal.
Next part is wrong and out of context too, Arius is stated to have managed to warp space and open a portal to the demon world,
this is exactly what happens in mission 18. At the beginning we can see a portal open meaning Arius' efforts were not in vain, he managed to warp space and open the door to the demon world. The tears in space-time are something consistent in the island,
hence the protectorate existing and defending only the island, something I have already addressed above.
These tears are something Arius took advantage of and most likely with the use of the sacrilege he was able to summon stronger and tougher demons, demons Lucia isn’t able to face off.
Now the scan
specifically says how demons were the ones to force open a tear in the human world, not arius, not only that but as Before the Nightmare specified, those rifts are quite common there.
This is not exactly consistent. Arius has indeed BFR spells but not tech,
his only time doing this was to send Lucia to an alternate dimension and
she gets out by killing the demons there but the pathway out only comes after defeating the demons guarding it, this is consistent with the demons being able to force tears open. In short, Arius didn’t open any rift till the end of the game, the rest has been debunked already.
This part is the odd one among everything, not only are the four lights supposed to open a portal to the demon world but it does another thing when you actually activate all of them. They literally drag the demon world closer and closer to the human world.
Every single orb that you activate says this and the final orb nails the point down by saying you can reach the demon world after the previous ones say the movement of the demon world increases.
Btw, this all happens in mission 14, not 16.
For context in this mission the fusion between worlds corrupted the island in a way that it became a spatial paradox, this leds Lucia to ask Dante how the end of the street leads to the beginning of it and vice versa, you are told by both the
title card and the
guide that activating the four lights will open a sealed door to get out of the street. The problem is that the sealed door that opens is only to get out of the loop, at no point there is a portal to the demon world or something like that.
The thing is, sacrilege doesn’t open any portal/door while the four lights only open a pathway to the building Arius is in. The movement of the demon world is being caused by Argosax. The barrier is irrelevant once again. The demon world doesn’t consume anything on its own.
The seal Sparda placed has literally no bearing on anything except keeping demons out (which has already been explained above). You don’t need to undo anything, to fuse the worlds together.
The Eclipse:
The main reasoning behind G1’s arguments, for the lack of a better term, straight up headcanon. The very fact that the Moon’s movement, in both angles,
were calced to be vastly higher than a natural Eclipse already shows us a very simple truth: it isn’t a natural phenomena. Ignoring said speed by simply saying “we should assume the timeframe isn’t literal for stuff like this, and it’s being sped up” is absurd, as on the very same cutscene, without any cuts, literally Arius appears performing the ritual, while the moon is moving far faster than normal, and guess what ?
He isn’t sped up, the argument doesn’t work, not even close.
This link was to show the eclipse was already happening, but ignores Lucia saying “the ritual was activated because of me”, the ritual that triggered the Eclipse in the first place, right at the same time. Her other quotes are also out of context, for example:
Lucia: "We have until the Sun is completely eclipsed. But...how are you going to enter the building? The entrance is..."
The eclipse, up until the point were the ritual started, wasn’t a problem and wasn’t mentioned, there wasn’t a “time limit” focused on it, that only happens because, again, the ritual with the 4 (Actually 3, as Dante trolled Arius) Arcanas had already started, further pointing how the event isn’t natural. I didn’t understood the meaning of putting the other two quotes, so I’m not going to address them here
DMC2 guide’s also has a specific section that mentions said event, a quote that was discarded because:
You can find their google doc on the moon argument here.
It chooses to ignore the eclipse being mentioned on the title for apparently not being on the text itself, but fails to see that said text is about the consequences caused by the whole events of the second game, the ritual to open the seal for Argosax starts, even if incomplete, and his incoming presence causes the eclipse, all of Argosax’s long distance feats are quoted numerous times in the game and its official material as the “approach of the Demon World” (and similar statements), the feat is just addressed on that line. The title is, literally, a direct mention of the Eclipse and it links this with the DW’s events, done by no other than Argosax. Questions like “why they never talk about the moon” are baseless, since the title literally talks about that
Now sure, going by DMC2’s environment, for the most part the moon and the sun could be blocked by the clouds, but we literally see money shots of the eclipse, both from
Lucia/Dante's perspective, and
Arius' perspective, so the cloud arguments don't work.
Sparda:
So to start with this, his seal isn’t a “keep the demon world in a bubble” kind of thing. These guys even posted it so let me bring it up again: “
The dimensional wall between the Demon World and Human World can be said to be like a net. High-ranking Demons cannot come to this world unless favourable conditions have been met due to their power, but low-ranking demons are able to easily pass through this net.”
His seal was meant to keep demons away from the human world, letting nothing go through it, of course with time and the actions of some people, said seal has been weakening,
allowing for tears in space-time to open and demons to cross. To do this he of course needed to separate the world that Mundus had brought back into existence, this is the separation Sparda made, the one Arkham draws parallels with in the manga when recounting the tale of the Black Horned Demon God.
With this out of the way, sparda had 2 options, either use some reality warping or to exert physical power and separate the worlds again. This brings us neatly to the whole point of the Devil Sword Sparda, Sparda's blade is specifically stated to be his power, numerous times in fact.
Yamato and Rebellion was revealed to be a part of Sparda's power before he split his powers into 3 blades, meaning any and all Yamato feats would scale to Sparda because it's a fraction of his true power. The DMC 3 intro also mentions the same story, the english version mentioned that he sealed the portal between realms so the demons couldn't enter, with him being sealed off too,
but here's the japanese version of that very line.
昔一人の悪魔が人間のために戦ったって、そして剣の力を使って魔界を封じ込めた一自分の強大すぎるカと一緒にね
A long time ago, a demon fought for the sake of humans. He was the one who used the mighty power of his sword to split off the Demon World, and then his own all-powerful force afterward.
They specifically refer to it as his power, nothing about hax whatsoever, meaning this would once again, scale to his overall AP. There's even more proof for the sword itself being granted strength, in the
DMC 5 series recap Vergil is stated he wants greater strength by finding his father's power, with Arkham doing the same thing. Further proven in the very game this statement is said. DMC 4 even goes the extra mile by Sanctus flat out saying "The Power of Sparda, why won't you give me strength, am I not worthy?". So yeah, Sparda splitting the demon and human world with his own sword is part of his overall strength and not just hax related.
Now, they also brought up the thin veil that existed when Mundus amassed his army and this is wrong, Mundus wanted to break that veil and invade the human world, something he actually did and gets confirmed by the manga as he fused the worlds again into one.
Saying seals are hax based is like saying fire burns, irrelevant and unnecessary.
There is more context for the sealing of the tower, the temen ni gru was a tower created by humans to reach the demon world with the intention to get power, this of course backfired and became one of the main highways between the worlds but not the only one. Sparda, fearing his own ever growing power, decided to seal it along with the tower.
The rest are just examples of sparda sealing powers, which we've already addressed above about it stating to be his actual strength/power, and not just a specific hax thing.
At the very end they mention the philosopher’s stone and the context for this is simple. Dante needed to open a gate/portal big enough to let him cross to the demon world as the “net” (seal) sparda had placed wouldn't allow him to cross otherwise. As you can see in the scans and in game, Dante didn’t undo the seal Sparda placed, instead he opened a portal big and stable enough for him to cross.
Finally as they said, none of them are AP feats as those are his sealing abilities, his power comes from the fact that he separated the worlds Mundus had fused.
To summarize:
- Sparda separated the worlds Mundus fused, hence his AP on top of being able to best him in combat and his legions.
- Sparda has some ******* broken sealing abilities
- Sparda's power through his sword is also stated to be from his own raw power and strength as stated numerous times in the games. So saying it's only a hax feat and nothing more is dishonest and ignores a good chunk of scenes that says otherwise.
3. Mundus making a dimension
Likely the most controversial feat, despite being as clear as day a Universal example of power.
As Mundus flapped his wings, the temple instantly lost its existence and the world was enveloped in a sea of stars. Only the two sides were facing each other in the vastness of space.
Now, the G1 blog starts by saying no source mentions the realm being a creation of Mundus himself, which is literally contradicted by the very next quote/link shown there. It mentions how Mundus envelops the place in “a sea of stars” after the temple was left behind, couldn’t be more clear than this, but here we are explaining what’s literally written there. To further back their claim, they use quotes such as “a realm beyond human comprehension” or “A mirror world beyond human knowledge” to actually link this realm to the demon world, which puzzles me. One of, if not THE biggest foundation of their claim is that, in their opinion, Mundus was never stated to be the creator of the realm, here we see a huge double standard, as
Mundus realm was never stated to be the Demon World to begin with. Why, for them, one works and the other doesn’t ? It shall be a mystery for me. Even the quotes for both are completely different, one realm is stated to be beyond human comprehension, the other is about warping their minds by being there, nobody is being mind haxed for not being able to comprehend something, not without something to back it up, but more importantly, even if both realms had the same effect (Something that, again, isn’t the case), why would that imply they are the same ? We have a quote saying Mundus created it, ignored for unknown reasons, but one (false) same effect was enough for proof ? I gotta question that logic. With Mundus being the King of his section of the DW, with his death leading to its destruction (explanation incoming), and the Demon World Energy on his control, him having his dimension with one or other similar element to the DW wouldn’t be something really surprising, despite, again, not being the case
For the stars, we also have this argument:
> After meeting Mundus here, he is sent to the Demon Emperor Space Heaven and enters the battle with the first form of Mundus.
And to finish, the G1 mentions how Mundus uses sigils when doing dimensional travel, something that we don’t see when he creates the realm. In conclusion, yes, Mundus did created a dimension as battlefield against Dante
“Mundus likely just took Dante to one of these circles”
Likely >
Mundus flapped his wings, the temple instantly lost its existence and the world was enveloped in a sea of stars ? Also, like it was shown on G1 blog, the place is called Demon Emperor's Space Heaven, which just further shows it is his personal realm, not the Demon World. Where the feat was done, in the Underworld Temple, is already inside the DW, why would Mundus teleport Dante to the DW
if they are already in the DW? And if he made the whole universal thing inside the Underworld, that would still be a universal feat.
The whole next paragraph builds its case on one assumption: Mundus coming back to Mallet Island directly from his realm (where he fought Dante), and uses this to further claim the realm and the Underworld are one and the same, but not only the claim itself is absurd as both are different realms (explained above), but it still relies on a assumption, one that if taken seriously, contradicts the other statements about not only Mundus being the creator of the realm but also being named differently and being created at that moment for their fight, so it’s a bad assumption at best
About Kamiya, the general rule is if Kamiya hasn't blocked you or responded in a trollish way, he probably means his answer. An example would be giving details on Dante's life:
Translations for Kamiya’s other tweets about Dante and Trish’s living situation : DevilMayCry (reddit.com)
With that said, Kamiya has been asked about the Mundus sequence before, and I would like to re-examine his answers.
When asked whether the sequence was accurate, Kamiya responds with "universe"
He later gets asked if the sequence is real, and responds by relinking his old universe answer
When asked once more if what he said was correct, he says to refer to his old answer
This paints a picture of consistency, at least to his stated intent for the scene. Keep in mind that staff that worked with Kamiya mention in the 3.1.4.2. book about the intended space scenes, and the sequence is flat stated as having happened in the Japanese game guide, which was released years before these twitter questions. The idea of Kamiya being a “troll” just chooses to ignore his actual serious answers, using arguments like “it’s just one word” to claim that it can’t be used, as if the length of the answer is what makes it valid or not, some twisted logic only useful for desperate moments or for when his answers don’t serve your scaling.
I want to start by saying, nice way to crop images and leave context out, it definitely helps us.
There are four scans used to “debunk” this and I am really without words for it. The pure hypocrisy of using a kamiya tweet as proof while making an essay moments prior trying to diminish them as nothing but trolling is baffling, this along with the scans cropped and the context ignored would be enough for me to just leave it at that and say these guys are being obvious liars, but since I already started and wasted enough time I will continue here.
Starting with the top left scan:
"Underworld collapsing" the title should be enough but let us continue "Beginning in the hall of Mundus,
Dante has exactly 5 minutes to reach the entrance of the underworld before it collapses, or he dies."
The whole thing is specifically saying Dante has a time limit to get out of the demon world or he dies due to it going kaboom, that’s crystal clear.
Now with the second scan, top right: Here is where the context starts being ignored,
if you have played DMC1 you will know that Dante opens a portal to the demon world in the castle, he enters a mirror dimension and in that mirror dimension he "breaks" the seal sparda placed to get into the demon world. To top it off this part they emphasized so much happens 3 missions prior to the demon world collapsing.
Like I said, context is missing.
Now onto the good part about
this scan:
"Dante defeats Mundus and prepares to escape from the collapsing underworld." As we can see this is exactly what the guide from 7 years ago said, pretty consistent stuff if you ask me. And if you've seen the previous screenshot on their 4 scans, and read the top right scan, you'll notice the word collapsing
underworld doesn't have the word
underworld being shown, how conveniently cropped that seems to be.
Now with the third scan: Once again the ignore context. I will never know why people take this shit seriously.
This is what the whole page has to say:
魔帝ムンドゥスの最期の咆晧
トリッシュの死、
永い闘いはこうして終焉を迎えた
様々な想いが去来する胸/胞をおさえ
ダンテは古域を後/復(?)にする
古域もまた、最期の時を迎えようとしていた
トリッシュの最期を看取ったダンテは
手向けのアミュレットと魔剣を残し、
振り向かずに走り始めた。
古城が激しく鳴動する。崩壊がたまっていた。
The Last Roar of the Demon Emperor Mundus
The death of Trish.
This is how the long battle came to an end.
Various thoughts and feelings come and go in his chest.
Dante returns to the old world.
The old realm, too, was approaching its final moments.
Dante, who took care of Trish's last breath
He left an amulet and a magic sword for her.
He began to run without looking back.
The old castle rumbled violently. The collapse was accumulating
If you, dear reader, have been giving enough attention this is exactly when Dante gets out of Mundus dimension, as the page says
“Dante returns to the old world” (this old world clearly being the demon world),
“the old realm, too, was approaching its final moments” and this part is just pure confirmation the demon world was going kaboom with Mundus dying.
Finally the last part:
“The old castle rumbled violently”, of course and you can see this in game, everything is shaking, last but not least important
“the collapse was accumulating” the final nail in the coffin, the world was ending.
I have to be fair, I was told the quality is quite bad, some kanji could be wrong but the core idea is the same, the demon world was going to be destroyed.
And finally the last scan, Kamiya: I already pointed out the hypocrisy of denying twitter when it doesn’t serve you but also using it when it does, but i’m also just going to copy paste what our blog has to say about this “Another counter that some people use against the legitimacy of this feat (including our very own Matthew) is the fact
that Kamiya rejected its legitimacy on Twitter.
However, Kamiya was only involved with the creation of Devil May Cry 1, and after that, Itsuno took the series’s reins. Therefore, Kamiya has no authority to reject information given to us on Devil May Cry 4, and his word here is automatically discarded by default.”
All in all, this is pretty much a fact, any attempt to deny it is just pathetic.
Now about the guide putting the last part in the underworld section, this is obvious, its the end of the game and the large part of it happens in the demon world, they won’t make another section saying “the human world/ island/ castle” that’s dumb and a waste of time, space and resources when only very last 10 minutes happen in the human world, hence all of them being in the same section.
The last point is the dumbest one so far, not all demons are the same, they are all different, having different powers, moves, abilities, etc. Mundus isn’t made of a ton of different demons, argosax isn’t a half demon like urizen, abigail isn’t a blob of tendrils covered by stone, etc.
It’s completely stupid to think the rest of demon kings/gods share the same powers just because they are kings.
Not only that but we actually get a taste of Mundus' connection with the demon world in the second novel.
Note 1:
The fruit being stated to create illusions is completely irrelevant when Mundus is the one doing the feat, and if it somehow was an illusion, why exactly would a sea of stars be made on top of the battle field being far larger than it was before, on top of every single guide saying it's the demon emperor's space, everything points to him actually making the dimension, not him casting an illusion.
Note 2: narrative
Not only this argument is another failed attempt but it tries reusing the same “castle collapsing” argument that was already debunked. Dante implication isn’t about dying to the island, it's about dying fighting Mundus, a Mundus who is dying as well, the whole interaction is about Mundus wanting and going to kill dante and Dante saying Mundus will die there as well (considering he is already dying that’s a fact on his part). Also that was NOT the same dante that defeated mundus, because he had the Devil Sword Sparda amping him when he fought Mundus,
and he left it to Trish right before he attempts to escape the underworld collapsing.
At the very end, right after sealing Mundus, it is plausible considering that Dante exhausted all his power fighting Mundus back to back and using the small power Trish gave to seal Mundus and as the second novel explained, a demon without juice is weak, very, very weak.
Note 3: Dante getting back
While it's true that the way Dante got out is somewhat vague, it's pretty simple if you stand still and think for more than a second, that there are two options, each of them are equally as valid.
In verse we are told the perfect amulet is used to travel between the demon world and the human world, not only that but they are part of the Devil Sword Sparda after they awaken its real form.
“Devil May Cry, Items — Perfect Amulet: "The combined form of Dante's pendant and Dark Knight's pendant.
It allows entry into the Underworld."
Not only that but Trish actually uses that,
she comes back from the demon world and post
cutscenes, in 2, 4 and 5 we see she has the devil sword sparda as her main weapon, a weapon Dante left with her in the vault.
The other option is that Dante got BFR'd back to the underworld. The proof comes from Void Mundus, which you guys admit to being a BFR back to their original world, as explained in the Void Mundus section. If Void Mundus' death, who's just Mundus but one with the demon world, would cause a BFR upon his death, why would normal Mundus be any different when the same thing happens?
Either way, both the sparda with amulets, and Mundus' BFR upon death arguments are equally valid to use to explain how Dante even came back in the first place.
4. Void Mundus
This doesn’t ignore any context, not only that but we never claimed he has all of it, he “IS” the source of the demon world energy. Him being it doesn’t mean it stops existing in the rest of the world. Hence why he is called the “heart” The quote from the novel doesn’t help them in any form.
Now, he is the source of the demon world energy, the same energy that casually spawned the human world. This isn’t contradicted, in fact
it's directly stated the world was born of darkness (darkness being the demon world). The next scan gives us more context: “"
unending darkness, a crucible of chaos. But even to that primordial existence there came a ray of light. The universe was eventually split in two."
Basically the world was the demon world, from that the human world was created and after some time Pluto came and split the worlds. This energy is being produced by Void Mundus itself.
The statement is about how it all suddenly came into creation, time frame is irrelevant here, it's like saying the big bang is 4-C for taking an unknown amount of time to create our universe.
The usage of heart is pretty obvious, it means that Mundus is the center, the source of the demon world,
that’s why as the demons get close to him their power starts replenishing to the
point where it oversaturates their bodies with power and all of them start falling down.
Nexus in fact has been explored and explained in the series, its a point, a connection forced by Gilver, it forces the creation of the demon world upon the human world. This is something different than Argosax and Mundus fusion.
As for Void Mundus and the nexus, as the definition says; “"The central and most important point or place"
Void Mundus as the “heart” (source) and Nexus (most important place) is the most important point of existence in the world, everything that existed has stemmed from the energy he now gives birth to. Same energy that casually gave birth to the human world.
Now without Mundus that world is going to collapse, exactly like the original mundus and his relation with the demon world. Indeed they were BFR’d back to their world but as Dante said:
"We've got to get out of here," Dante said sternly.
"This place is more dangerous than ever with the king dead. Let's get what we came for and run”
This is because, once again, the whole world is going to collapse now that Mundus is dead, exactly how DMC1 handled Mundus’ incoming death as the trigger for the Demon World to collapse, only stopping after he was sealed instead of killed, with no such luck in Novel 2, the world won’t hold.
In fact, the world has been fused, this isn’t some terraforming as I have explained in the Mundus merging section, it's the plan Mundus had from the start, to fuse the worlds into the original world and govern them as its only absolute ruler.
A being having no mass means nothing, by this logic any and all spirits in fiction who have any power statements can't be used because they lack mass. What’s important here are his feats, he just like the original mundus fused the worlds together again, he is the source of the demon world energy, the same energy that farted a universe into existence just because it can.
We also know for a fact that Mundus is the nexus, the heart/source, the most important thing in existence because of what he is. Literally showed that above.
Griffon mentions they are close to the demon keep, later Dante is the one that realizes they are close to the nexus, this is once again because they are getting close to Mundus himself.
Tldr, we know a lowball of how much energy void mundus actually has, he is the nexus and the heart and his death was going to cause the whole thing to blow up just like the original one. Being a void and lacking mass is a completely stupid argument to be used in fiction, especifically when we know for a fact the guy leaks enough energy to casually create a universe.
5. Beastheads
- Beastheads shake the “world”
- Beastheads embodying time
- Beastheads being stated to be able to reshape the world
Before anything I have to make sure everyone knows we aren’t using the beastheads to prove universal power, as their feats are mostly hax and tier 6, but they have shown feats, under special circumstances, that surpasses even the god tiers, we’ll talk about those later on.
Once again, this statement is being taken out of context. The “shaking” feat comes from another passage in the novel, here is the actual quotes:
“The world shook. The immutable laws of physics wrestled with forces intent on ignoring them. It was the birthing pains of a creature from a dimension anathema to our own.” DMC Vol2. p- 83
Another TL would be:
“The world is trembling. As one historian put it, this world is so fragile in its foundation that it cannot accept beings that do not follow its laws. So what would happen to the world if an alien being were to be forcibly inserted?”
Now, this is one of the extremely rare cases where World doesn’t mean the whole universe, context is needed for this:
"This is pretty quiet for the end of the world." A deflated Dante said, coddling Ebony and Ivory. "I expected something more, somehow. It's taken the wind out of my sails." DMC Vol2. p- 83
“ Dante didn't seem to notice. "I'm not saying this is bad, as far as the ends of the world go. A little too gloomy, maybe. I guess we should see what this guy's made of." DMC Vol2. p- 85
Dante, who at this point has been familiarized with actual universal threats is just bored and disappointed by the beastheads powers. Further showing this isn’t meant as the whole human world shaking, rather just the planet.
His next argument against this is “Even if it did shake the planet (it didn't as people would have noticed across the globe if that happened”
I don’t have to point out the sheer stupidity of this, you don’t need some hype man, a group telling you about how awesome something is to know what it is and what it does. Not only that but the novel isn’t about “what humans think or feel”, it's about Dante and Beryl and their adventure together, almost all the time you are seeing things from their perspective, not some random human across the globe.
Finally he is right, this feat is small country level, here in the wiki we treat it as such.
Now, I hope you remember I said the beastheads have feats that go beyond god tiers in special cases, this is when they have a host.
For context here, Dante had been trapped by Chen in a device that absorbs/destroys demonic power, something he has been using for decades to study demons as it preserves their lives.
Chen had a theory about how demons eat humans as fuel for power and replenish demon’s power, even going as far as giving power on par with Sparda:
“
Chen had thought that the Beastheads would make him Sparda's equal. He'd envisioned harnessing the statue's power to become immortal and to assume complete mastery of the demon world.”
Dante as a demon and one who has one of the strongest wills in the series is capable of harnessing said power, he got those powers when the beastheads bit him along with the powers the hosts have.
“And in that moment, he and Dante both understood the reason why the Beastheads had never assimilated any of the demons that had carried it. It was the same reason Dante was able to carve his way through the gel coffin and stand in front of Chen. "The Beastheads eats us humans and replenishes you demons. It's like a power transformer for souls!"
"Probably." Dante shrugged.
The power that now imbued him felt neither good nor evil. It simply was. Whoever wielded it could reshape reality to its own design, for better or for worse” DMC Vol2. p-179
The beastheads not only replenished his own power but gave him more power, power to change the world as they see fit and as Dante sees it is pure power, neither good nor evil.
This once again does not matter what kind of power is as demonic energy works for everything. This is shown immediately after Chen eats the statue, he gained power superior to that of Sparda and fought Dante and almost killed him.
Finally this last part is correct, the beastheads does not embody time,
they represent time, something completely different.
As explained, one head represents the past, another the future and the last one the present.
This is more explicit with the ability to watch the future, the past and the present. Dante himself experienced this when he saw the past, the war, a young Mundus and Sparda, Ducas who saw the future (just like chen was doing moments prior) and Dante who himself probably is able to see the future but just like the novel explains, he has no knowledge or training for this.
6. Nightmare destroying the demon world
There are numerous problems in the Nightmare section, inside and outside the DMC verse. Outside of it, there is a blalant AOE fallacy with quotes like “his next best feat is also lacking in aoe”, and “He lacks both the speed and aoe to make this statement have a possible quantification”, as we are all aware, any fiction tends to ignore the principle of conservation of energy and showcase many powerful characters with low destructive effects on their surrounding area, some of them (few, to be exact) have some sort of explanation, like Dragon Ball with Ki control, but that’s not really necessary when the series itself possesses numerous blalant feats usually without much destruction, if AOE was necessary, DMC (and most verses) wouldn’t reach anything beyond Tier 8.
The “slow movement” speed completely ignores the very quote showed on G1, as it mentions that Nightmare’s movements were restrained by Mundus, but even the idea of speed being necessary also puzzles me, as his powers can affect the whole DW dimension structure (scan in a later paragraph), which is a feat that doesn’t rely upon the usage speed
“Timeframe” can’t be a problem when the Demon World is infinite in size, as explained in the section on the infinite size demon world.
That also takes care of the stability/destruction argument, any of them, in a Infinite Sized dimension, is Universal. But looking into more quotes about Nightmare, including the whole paragraph that was missing from the G1 blog, and the new game Peak of Combat, we’ll see that he isn’t limited to only the stability
"正 直 、 俺 も こ の 粘 つ く 、 の よ う な 化 け 物 を 、 悪 魔 の 一 種 と し て 考 え て い い の か 判 断 に 迷 う と こ ろ だ 。 魔 帝 が 心 血 を そ そ い で 完 成 さ せ た 魔 界 の 生 物 兵 器 で 、 そ の 思 考 回 路 も 能 力 も 、 す べ て は 敵 対 者 を 殺 し つ く 、 す こ と だ け を 目 的 と し て 創 ら れ て い る 。 だ が 、 そ の 結 果 、 創 造 者 で さ え 予 想 も つ か な か っ た 悪 な 殺 機 械 が で き 上 が っ た ら し く 、 無 制 限 に 力 を 解 放 さ せ る と 魔 界 の 安 定 さ え 担 る が し か ね な い 危 険 な 存 在 に な つ ち ま つ た 。 そ こ で 、 マ ヌ ケ な 魔 帝 は 大 あ わ て で 、 こ い つ を 配 置 し た 地 点 に は よ 走 を 抑 え る た め の 拘 束 具 紋 章 と リ ン ク し て 力 場 を 発 生 さ せ る 拘 束 文 様 を セ ッ ト で 設 置 す る 八 メ メ に な っ た ワ ケ だ 。 た し か に 非 拘 束 状 態 の ナ イ ト メ ア の 力 は 凄 ま じ く 、 ゲ ル 状 の 肉 体 は あ ら ゆ る 攻 撃 を 受 け つ け な い 。 さ ら に 、 そ の 内 部 に 亜 空 間 と も 言 う べ き 異 世 界 を 生 成 し て 、 こ こ に 引 き す り こ ん だ 相 手 の 記 憶 力 ら 生 み 出 し た 魔 物 の " 影 " を け し か け る 、 ま さ に 悪 夢 め い た 能 力 を 発 揮 し て く る 。 だ か り と 言 っ て 拘 束 文 様 を 発 動 さ せ れ ば 楽 勝 っ て わ け で も な く 、 防 衛 本 能 が 高 ま っ て 硬 質 を し た 巨 体 か ら 、 さ な が ら 軍 事 兵 器 の よ う に 多 彩 な 攻 撃 を 繰 り 出 し て き や が る 。 こ い つ が 暴 走 し て 魔 界 が 滅 び ち ま え ば い い の に っ て 、 ホ ン ト に 思 う ぜ !"
Translation:
"To be honest, I'm at a loss in judging whether I should consider this sticky dark monster as a kind of demon. It is a biological weapon of the Demon World that the Demon Emperor completed with all his heart and soul, its thought circuits and ability are all created solely for the purpose of killing an adversary. However, as a result, it seems that an evil killing machine that even the creator did not anticipate was created, becoming a dangerous existence who could play a role in the stability of the Demon World if its powers were to be released indefinitely. So, the Demon Emperor was in a big hurry and at the moment when this guy was arranged, a restraining tool was placed to suppress its movement──that was the reason why a set of restraint patterns that generate a forcefield by linking with eight emblems was set. Certainly, the unrestrained Nightmare's power was terrifying, and its gel-like body does not accept any attacks. In addition, it creates a different world inside it which can be called a subspace, exerting a truly nightmare ability to cast the "shadow" of the demon that was created from the memory of the opponent who was pulled in it. If you could call it a restraint pattern, it wasn't an easy victory and its defense instinct increases and its body hardens, attacking with a variety of attacks like a military weapon. I wish this guy would run off and have the Demon World perish!”
1)The first highlighted sentence in the paragraph talks about how indefinite release of Nightmare’s power will play a role in the stability of the Demon World. I laugh at how G1 thinks this is some sort of anti-feat. Obviously a being capable of realm destruction would cause instability
just by existing, because that is what the text directly says. The mere removal of seal/chains will allow Nightmare destabilize the Demon World, not unlike Dragon Ball characters shaking the world around them by removing restraints or not holding back, only in this case it's Nightmare destabilizing the entire Demon World. Which would come under significantly affecting infinite structure feat.
2)The very quote says the DW will perish under Nightmare’s powers, which would be its complete destruction. This is wished by the developer himself that the Nightmare "perish" or destroy the Demon World itself. Which shows that the developer themselves have faith in Nightmare’s abilities to do as stated. And obviously this is the Demon
World which is perishing, not the population or society, so its universal destruction blatantly not life wiping.
The Peak of Combat scan:
冥界 据说魔王创造了一种强大的武器他甚至担心它会摧毁 他自己的王国,封印了他的力量来阻止它。凭借他巨 大的力量,他可以毫不费力地举起整个冥界的结构或 摧毁它。 只有与她的创造者相媲美的存在才能超越他的强度。 一件武器将成为任何实体的噩梦,无论是活着的还是 死去的。
V1: The Underworld
The demon king is said to have created a powerful weapon that he even feared would destroy his own kingdom, and sealed his power to stop it. With his immense great power, he could effortlessly lift the entire structure of the underworld or destroy it. Only a being comparable to her creator could surpass his strength. A weapon would be a nightmare for any entity, living or dead.
V2: Underworld
The Demon is said to have created a powerful weapon he even feared would destroy his own kingdom, sealing his power to stop it. With his great power, he could effortlessly lift the entire structure of the underworld or destroy it. Only an existence comparable to her creator can surpass his intensity. A weapon will become a nightmare for any entity, whether alive or dead.
V3:
In the underworld, the demon king is said to have created a powerful weapon he feared would destroy his own kingdom, sealing his power to stop it. With his great, great power, he could lift the entire structure of the underworld without difficulty or destroy it. Only an existence comparable to that of her creator can exceed its intensity. A weapon would be a nightmare for any entity, alive or dead.
In any translation, the two feats are solid: Nightmare can destroy the entire structure of the Demon World, as well as lift it. These are
very, very clear Universal feats of power and lifting strength being stated, again, to Nightmare. One of, if not
the biggest lore detail about the character is him being a demon with enough power to destroy their world, consistently stated on multiple DMC media even with different levels of details, but the feat is there, and is the more direct one among all of them.
7. Savior making a dimension
The stairway to heaven or hell is clearly talking about the entire board game area, it's literally shaped like a stairway, where you have to go up each step in order to reach Sanctus to stop the Savior from doing anything. It couldn't have made it more blatant than that. How do you jump to the conclusion that the Savior's dimensions aren't made by himself and are just dimensional pockets when you earlier in the same paragraph admit to it being a creation?
“Nightmarish” itself gets paired up with the idea of it being a “nightmare” or a “vision,” but in this context, the area that’s specifically stated to be recreated is Ferris Hill’s.
Even the scan you use flat out say it's a nightmarish creation, meaning the Savior, who's controlling the dice game, is making these realms to begin with.
The being that's goading Nero to strike them down is the DICE itself, not the demons that Nero fights,
the Dice itself talks to Nero the first time you see it explaining how the rules of the dice game works, explaining to you that you need to strike the dice in order to progress to the next area. And once again it talks to Nero doing the same thing at Mission 19. Hell when Dante shows up in the first Dice game,
he destroys the Dice itself, and there's no ghostly voice that appears whatsoever, Occam's Razor would point to the fact that it was indeed the Dice itself that was speaking to Nero when talking about the game, saying otherwise with no proof whatsoever is mind-boggling.
We have never once used the Savior as an actual feat for Universal, the main reason why everyone has a High 4-C rating in the first place is because of Savior,
and it's from the fact that he made a pocket dimension with a sun inside of it, something you guys admit is an actual creation.
Nero in that entire mission is inside the Savior and is inside a nightmarish creation of these areas, there's no mention anywhere in the game that says that they were sent to an alternate reality at all. Occam's Razor would point to the fact that the Savior made it if it was inside of his body and there's statements of these areas being a nightmarish creation, you need to prove that these are actual alternate realities as opposed to creation because you haven't shown any scans whatsoever to back up your points, just "We don't know if this specific thing happened" because reasons.
Two, comparing Saviour to Beastheads in saying BFR'd Nero to Alternate Timeline is fallacious on many levels, not only is Saviour incapable of even basic space-time BFR, the thought that it can BFR and reverse BFR to alternate timeline with precise idea as to where to drop Nero in time-point is absolutely baseless.
Even Beastheads isn't capable of that accuracy, not to mention Beastheads is sole possessor of that ability with deep lore and mechanics behind why that is. In short Saviour is incapable of BFR thus the dimensions didn't already exist somewhere outside the timeline. It was created as said in-guide and seen in visuals inside Saviour itself.
How the hell can you go out of your way to claim that the Prime Guides are not legit source for feats and lore, when in your own blog, in the
Sparda Physiology google doc that you've made,
you linked a Prima Guide scan to argue that Nero and co. can resist Energy Absorption? This is peak double standard right here, and you have no right claiming this isn't legit while also using said information for your own research. But let's ignore this blatant double standard and pick apart this reddit thread.
- The guides being made with an early build does not prove that the information in these guides are automatically wrong, the scan for the savior here, in a Prima Guide, is not wrong whatsoever, that sequence of events is 1 to 1 to a tee. Nero fights the angelo enemies first, just like the guide said. The second platform being identical in terms of color coded spots, with the green and white orb in the corners, is 100% accurate to the final product, on top of needing to role a 6 in order to move to the next area on your first dice roll. Berial being the next foe to fight, as shown in the Prima Guide, is 100% accurate to the final product. There are no changes or alterations from this part of the game, so the reddit's point on how "early versions of the game is what the guides are based off on" doesn't work here.
- The only example this guy mentions on how any of these games have incorrect information in their guides is from Brady Games' FFX-2 guide, not Prima Games btw, those are two completely different companies at the time so that argument doesn't hold any ground here for Prima Games guides.
Hodgson moved to LA and worked on his first strategy guides at GameFan -- for games like Super Mario 64, Soul Blade and Doom 64 -- under the magazine’s GameFan Books division. He flitted among various publishers and magazines until 2000. He called Prima, at the time one of the biggest strategy guide companies (its main competitor, BradyGames, would later be bought by publisher Penguin Random House and folded into Prima). He sent Prima his Metal Gear Solid guide, and they assigned him Armored Core.
- This same article that the reddit posts references also has this little gem right here.
Hodgson seems to always go above and beyond. His humor is often self-deprecating, but he’s also proud when he talks about some of the things he’s accomplished within the limited medium of strategy guides, like the note he received from Hideo Kojima about his Metal Gear Solid guide in 1998.
“He loved the guide. He liked the fact that I'd put box-outs for the history of the forklift truck in the first level,” Hodgson said. “Strategy guides were usually just ‘go here, do this, go here, do that.’ I wanted it to be a bit more of an 'official mission handbook,' we called it.” Kojima said he’d shown the guide to his mother, who didn’t really understand video games but of course knew what a book was.
- If Hideo Kojima himself, the man behind Metal Gear Solid, approved of his guidebooks for his OWN GAME and had no issues showing it to his mother, I think it's safe to say that his work is more than reliable enough to be used. Also side note, games like Skyrim, Fallout 4 and the Witcher 3, open world games aren't remotely comparable to linear games like Devil May Cry, where you can find everything much faster than open world games where there's endless ways to go and not linear level designs to explore, just wanted to point out that little Apples to Oranges comparison there.
8. 4D demon world
Okay, to start this part the demon world energy does not only stop time, as the blog puts it: “The Demon World Energy
is capable to warp the space-time in a Universal scale,can create time paradoxes,can affect not only the present,
but also the past and future and is capable to warp the entire of the universe”
Of course if you read the Argosax section, we debunked their attempts at hand waving this away. And of course, all of this happens because Argosax is fusing the worlds together. This fusion is messing with the fabric of space-time of the human world, something that here in the wiki is considered 4D, something that starts from Low 2-C.
Low 2-C | Universe level+: Characters who are capable of significantly affecting
[1], creating and/or destroying an area of space that is qualitatively larger than an infinitely-sized 3-dimensional space. Common fictional examples of spaces representing such sizes are
space-time continuums of a universal scale. However, it can be more generally fulfilled by any 4-dimensional space that is either:
A) Equivalent to a
large extra dimensional space. That is, a higher-dimensional "bulk" space which embeds lower-dimensional ones (Such as our universe) as subsets of itself, whose dimensions are not
microscopic / compactified.
Since the demon world fits the second criteria while the human world fits the first one it's safe to say this works easily.
Demon world fits in a sense that it works as the membrane the human world is floating in since the human world is nothing but a piece of the original world of darkness which is the demon world.
On the other hand, the rest are examples of demonic energy messing with time and/or space and they are correct, that’s messing with only 1 temporal or spatial dimension, something that isn’t 4D and that we've already removed from the blog, and have been trying to get out and will likely result in a thread to get it taken out (if it hasn’t already).
As for Void Mundus, we already explained and debunked their arguments, you can go back and check them again or check the regular mundus part as some of them are the same contextually.
9. Infinite size demon world
Here is their entire response regarding the infinite size demon world.
Let's go with the manga, the text isn’t just “flavor”, if these guys bothered to source their points they would have
linked the complete manga page, these guys also happened
to use a japanese raw text from us that flat out said the demon world is infinite so… yeah. This darkness is the demon world, its directly stated to be that: “The darkness became the realm of demons”,
the next page further confirms this:
"But one day the lord of the dark world said..."
"These realms were once united, so why not rule them as one?"
"From that era forward the dark fought to control the light and the light struggled to defy the dark"
All of them refer to the demon world as this darkness.
At no point in the series the darkness refers to something else but the demon world. Implying it means “they can’t see the end” is wrong considering 3 demon gods were able to mess with the whole thing, demon gods that mess with space and time when doing this.
Now we know they are separate time-space continuums, this is pretty obvious and we have used some scans about this in the whole blog for a while now but let me bring some.
- The samsara is used to restore rifts in time/space in the demon world
- The gigapede literally only made his way to the human world due to rifts in space-time
- Oranguerra literally only crossed because a rift in space-time
- A rift between the worlds allows demons to cross
- There is even a dimensional wall between the worlds (that does nothing to the demon world mind you)
There is more, like Mallet Island having a ******-up time passage due to its deep connection with the demon world, the demon world messing with time/space when Argosax was fusing the worlds together, etc.
I know that “unending” can have some different definitions but the context here is clear, it’s about the universe, the demon world universe. There is no way to twist it without ignoring context.
Now they also said this “The Demon world might also have an edge. The Unsacred Hellgate, the edge which divides the Demon World from the Human World, seen in the finale to Devil May Cry 3.”
And this guy ignores context yet again, the area is called “the edge which divides the demon world from the human world” for a single, very obvious reason, the portal to the human world is right ******* there. This portal is the edge that divides the worlds and is situated right there,
Vergil even comments on this saying that the portal to the human world is closing.
All in all, the main argument for the infinite size demon world comes from the manga, specifically because it's told from the point of an omniscient narrator, the addition of the sargasso and the astronomical board are just addons but sadly the translation doesn’t help much.
9. Speed
This one is gonna be a lot faster to tackle so let's get through this.
An actual translation of this page would be nice btw,
also the guide refers to this being a particle beam.
The laser is literally stated to be a laser, that could not be more blatant than it already does, on top of you guys listing that laser feat for Nero's section of speed feats so that's moot, also if you're going to accept
Link having laser dodging feats just from the fact that he dodged a laser, you have to accept this feat being legit for Dante too.
Even if we currently don't have them at that speed calc, we already proved Mundus made it so that argument doesn't work,
also Dante has dodged numerous attacks prior to that cutscene so that point is irrelevant.
Everything else we have no comment on since we already don't accept it on the pages as of now. The Nightmare stuff is also irrelevant when the particle beams scale to mundus in the first place so yeah.
The miscellaneous stuff we're not gonna address since we agree with these points, except for the Qliphoth tree, because there's no contradiction for the game, on top of it not being a contradiction to any of the feats listed above.
All in all, this entire refute to every single universal feat is just flat out terrible. Numerous instances of the blog contradicting itself by using specific sources in their own research while claiming that using said source is not reliable, cropping images or taking shit out of context, or blatantly ignore the translation that disproves their argument, among many others should be a clear sign that you shouldn't take this blog seriously.
