We know that the Creations in Re:Creators are characters that are "fictional" in the context of their franchise. That much is not really debated. Of course, we also know that characters like Sota, Matsubara, and Setsuna are intended to be "real people" like you and I in the context of Re:Creators. That said, while the Creations are capable of hurting and killing "real people" using their powers, it appears that Altair's Holopsicon has only been used directly against other Creations. We know that the Holopsicon deals with concepts that seem only applicable to "fictional characters", such as reversing plot developments, copying in-universe fictional powers and weaponry, story revising, etc.
And so, here's my question. Because the Holopsicon seems only to interact with and affect characters that are intended to be "fictional" in the context of their home franchise, will it even work on characters that are not intended to be such? Characters like Goku, Aang, Monkey D. Luffy, Naruto, and Edward Elric are not "fictional" in the contexts of their respective home franchises and you could say that they are "real people" within their franchises like Sota and Matsubara and Setsune were in the world of Re:Creators. If Altair were to be pitted against those characters, will the Holopsicon even work on them? It can be argued that no, it wouldn't, simply because those characters are "real people", but in that case, Altair would be stripped of much of her combat efficacy. Does this mean that certain guidelines need to be established when using Altair in a battle against a character that is a "real person", like saying that the Holopsicon will work on the opponent and saying that the opponent's life history (events of which are not "fictional" in the context of the opponent's home franchise) will be treated as "plot" that the Holopsicon can interact with?
