You haven't provided anything that says it's explicitly different... Meanwhile the professional translator has explicitly clarified what is happening, which is fundamentally the same as regular Magnetic Confinement FusionI'm saying that while it can have a similar name, it very clearly isn't exactly the same, and therefore shouldn't get scaled based off of something it isn't.
Bruh, you don't have an argument, your argument is just "I don't believe these two are the same things because I don't"Its magic confinement fusion, whatever that entails for it, is something the author should've explained, either during his afterword that he uses, or in the manga scene it appeared in
It is his job to point out the origin and meaning behind what the series is saying, so his word does have value yesThe translator's job is to translate what is being said in the series that is true, but when said translator makes inferences that were never actually stated or shown in series, we don't take their opinion as fact.
The fact that magic is being used in this process at all?"Very clearly" Based on what?
No I'm not, its a very clearly pointed out principle on the forum that something be named after something else doesn't mean they have the exact same mechanics, and that said namesake would need its own statements to prove its on that levelAgain, you're creating an arbitrary requirement that doesn't need to be fulfilled in order for this to be taken as a fact
Namesake isn't enough if it's directly contradicted... Not if it's flat out said to be the same shit by the translator...The fact that magic is being used in this process at all?
No I'm not, its a very clearly pointed out principle on the forum that something be named after something else doesn't mean they have the exact same mechanics, and that said namesake would need its own statements to prove its on that level
It's the same process, but with magic involved. It's even said that magic is holding the plasma... So clearly it's the same process, just now including magic.The fact that magic is being used in this process at all?
But it provably does have the same mechanics. You're simply ignoring this factNo I'm not, its a very clearly pointed out principle on the forum that something be named after something else doesn't mean they have the exact same mechanics, and that said namesake would need its own statements to prove its on that level
Yeah by the translator, who just assumed that, nothing in the series actually says thatIt's even said that magic is holding the plasma... So clearly it's the same process, just now including magic.
Or it doesn't? It possibly being the same doesn't mean it isBut it provably does have the same mechanics. You're simply ignoring this fact
You're assuming it's simply an assumption being made rather than an actual statement.Yeah, by the translator, who just assumed that
The fact that it being held together by magic is never stated in the actual manga makes it an assumption, that's the proofYou're assuming it's simply an assumption being made rather than an actual statement.
Prove that it's just an assumption
That's not proof. Otherwise all explicit statements outside the manga are just "assumptions"The fact that it being held together by magic is never stated in the actual manga makes it an assumption, that's the proof
which has no barrings on actual canonTranslator connects them explicitly
It being a reference doesn't make it exactly the sameThe naming is fundamentally the same
the fact that it does nothing to imply its 200 million degress celcius besides a translator explaining where the name came from and us taking that at face value.There's nothing that directly contradicts them being the same
Yes it is, he saw the word magic instead of magnetic and assumed that was what is taking place.That's not proof. Otherwise all explicit statements outside the manga are just "assumptions"
You're assuming what he did. Prove that this was exactly what he did.Yes it is, he saw the word magic instead of magnetic and assumed that was what is taking place.
Also thats not a good example, all explict statements made by people who have no effect on actual canon are assumptions or headcanon because they aren't the author
The proof is right there in the scans, I don't know what else to tell you, its very clear he made an assumption because of the spells name, because thats the only way he could have came to that conclusion in the first place.You're assuming what he did. Prove that this was exactly what he did.
Okay, that seems like the best decision at this pointAt this point, we're just circling points, I call staff to get their thoughts and opinions in here
If that's your "proof," it is incredibly insufficient. Nothing in there speaks to an assumption. He himself doesn't even say "I assume Wall did this" or anything of the sort. It's stated as a fact, not an assumption, so it should be taken as a fact.The proof is right there in the scans, I don't know what else to tell you, its very clear he made an assumption because of the spells name, because thats the only way he could have came to that conclusion in the first place.
Exactly this^If that's your "proof," it is incredibly insufficient. Nothing in there speaks to an assumption. He himself doesn't even say "I assume Wall did this" or anything of the sort. It's stated as a fact, not an assumption, so it should be taken as a fact.
So once again, your only argument is that you doubt the translator has any valid information and therefore we should completely disregard the entire comparison and just assume Magic Confinement Fusion is completely different than Magnetic Confinement Fusion…The Translator doesn't have to directly say its an assumption for it to be an assumption.
The Translator says that's what Wall is doing, but he is only saying that based off the spell being named magic confinement fusion, it doesn't matter if he is stating it like it is a fact because he can't make it a fact, only someone in series making such a claim or the author making such a claim can, the translator can only make the assumption that he's using magic instead of magnetism because magic replaced magnetism in MCF, they have no actual hold on the series and therefore their assumption of what happened shouldn't be used to justify the temperatures in the series.
Then how do you know it's an assumption? Just saying "oh well I can tell from the scans" is a clear indicator to me that you don't actually have proofThe Translator doesn't have to directly say its an assumption for it to be an assumption.
I've been saying this a lot lately... Based on what?The Translator says that's what Wall is doing, but he is only saying that based off the spell being named magic confinement fusion, it doesn't matter if he is stating it like it is a fact because he can't make it a fact, only someone in series making such a claim or the author making such a claim can, the translator can only make the assumption that he's using magic instead of magnetism because magic replaced magnetism in MCF, they have no actual hold on the series and therefore their assumption of what happened shouldn't be used to justify the temperatures in the series.
This is a really bad argument to try and prove there’s some fundamental distinction between these two things to the point where they can’t be compared. Just because something is made out of magic doesn’t mean it can’t share the same principles as the thing it’s emulating.The fact that magic is being used in this process at all?
That’s not really fully the point though.I’ll use a RWBY example since I know that’s something OP is familiar with.
In RWBY there are characters that can use magic and with that magic they’re capable of summoning up thunderstorms and shooting lighting down from them. Now is the fact that these clouds are conjures up with magic mean they’re not actually really clouds and the lightning isn’t actually real lightning either? No of course not, which is why it isn’t done like that on the wiki here.
So ignore translations done by them when it’s convenient, but take everything they say as wog when it’s convenient as well.They provide the official translations. It's their job to be as accurate as possible. If they're saying this, it's to be taken as an accurate, factual statement. Thus, nothing will change on the profiles
Okay, how about you stop saying based on what and prove your point instead, what other evidence would they have to go off of besides the name? Since that’s literally the only thing shown for an inference to be made in the first place.I've been saying this a lot lately... Based on what?
What im arguing is that Magic Confinement Fusion shows absolutely nothing that implies it’s heat or process is the exact same as the real thing, and the only piece of evidence that even links the two is a translators note, a literal translator’s note that has nothing to do with the actual series or the abilities name, all they did was just elaborate on the abilities name, which is something they do all the time.what you’re arguing is that just because something is made using magic, it cannot have the same principles the real life thing it’s emulating, which is patently not how we do things on the wiki here.
Not an argument, and irrelevant to Fairy Tail since we don’t ignore their translations to begin withSo ignore translations done by them when it’s convenient, but take everything they say as wog when it’s convenient as well.
It’s stated as a fact, with not even a remote indication that this is an assumption. Magic is stated to even hold the plasma, indicating it’s the same process but with Magic involved. And then it’s connected directly to what Wall is doing. In addition, there is nothing that contradicts what’s being said here.Okay, how about you stop saying based on what and prove your point instead, what other evidence would they have to go off of besides the name? Since that’s literally the only thing shown for an inference to be made in the first place.
Until otherwise, magic confinement fusion is just a play on words and the translator does nothing but point that out, nothing else in the series goes out of its way to say anything that implies it’s temperature being on the level an actual magnetic confinement fusion would produce, nothing at all
It’s stated by the translator, as a part of his assumption, show me the manga scene or Mashima quote that says this.Magic is stated to even hold the plasma, indicating it’s the same process but with Magic involved.
My argument is that we don’t take ability names at face value, which no we don’t, or every light blast would be light speed, every death beam would be instant death, and every black hole would be a black hole.Your entire argument is a simple personal belief that it can’t actually be the same as Magnetic Confinement Fusion
It’s just pointing out a truth, if anytime you take the raw over the official translation and claim the official translation is wrong and that the translators are incorrect to upgrade a character, but then turn around and use those translators headcanons to upgrade a character’s power, there’s a double standardNot an argument, and irrelevant to Fairy Tail since we don’t ignore their translations to begin with
Outlier my ass when you have people burning the concept of timeThat’s not really fully the point though.
the point of weather or not it’s magic doesn’t matter, the comparison to its namesake is just to show its reference to that, nothing in the series implies it’s 200 million degrees in heat, if anything that’s an absolute outlier at best, and that’s only if you take what a translator said at face value because nothing in the series actually makes the comparison between the two.
See this just isn't true, we do take into consideration those things. If something is called lightning magic, we consider it lightning unless there is a direct contradiction to that. This is especially true in Fairy Tail as it's explicitly stated many times that Magic has a direct connection to nature and is basically completely intertwined with reality. Fire Magic involves real fire. Lightning Magic involves real lightning. And so on and so forth, so Magic Confinement Fusion would be the exact same. Magnetic Confinement Fusion just with Magic involved.Also yes claiming that a thunder cloud made via magic isn’t a thunder cloud is a bad take, but claiming a spell called lightning blast isn’t actual lightning when it shows no indication of being lightning besides it’s visual effects and name wouldn’t be, just like how claiming a spell called black hole isn’t an actual black hole despite it sucking its targets in isn’t a weird take at all.
See now you're just making shit up. We don't ignore translations. We sometimes have to nail down on the specific wording of what they're saying, but we never outright ignore or discard them. When Haku's statement first came out, it said he was as fast as light, when officials came out, it said nearly as fast as light, but were essentially the same with minor differences in phrasing, so we needed to double check to nail down how Haku's speed does relate to light speed. But 99 times out of 100, the translators nail the translations and are well at their job, ESPECIALLY when it concerns direct translation notes that specifcially exist to clarify and explain the meaning behind each of the words. Magic Confinement Fusion being directly stated to be like Magnetic Confinement Fusion is proof that that's what is being said and was the intended purposeSo ignore translations done by them when it’s convenient, but take everything they say as wog when it’s convenient as well.
The name directly references a specific thing... Being Magnetic Confinement FusionOkay, how about you stop saying based on what and prove your point instead, what other evidence would they have to go off of besides the name? Since that’s literally the only thing shown for an inference to be made in the first place.
I mean, right after this, Wall fires a ball of fire that is stated to burn the sky, so it's clearly a very hot attack... Once again, all you're doing is baselessly disagreeing cause you don't see how it's the same despite literally being called the sameUntil otherwise, magic confinement fusion is just a play on words and the translator does nothing but point that out, nothing else in the series goes out of its way to say anything that implies it’s temperature being on the level an actual magnetic confinement fusion would produce, nothing at all
What you haven't done at all is dispprove how it's not like Magnetic Confinement Fusion... A process specifically designed to generate large amounts of energy. So yes, Wall does display traits of Magnetic Confinement Fusion. It's a form of nuclear fusion that generates massive amounts of heat and energy, which Wall proceeds to do... Gain a bunch of energy and fire a super heated attackWhat im arguing is that Magic Confinement Fusion shows absolutely nothing that implies it’s heat or process is the exact same as the real thing, and the only piece of evidence that even links the two is a translators note, a literal translator’s note that has nothing to do with the actual series or the abilities name, all they did was just elaborate on the abilities name, which is something they do all the time.
Once again, they're not giving their opinions, they are matter of factly saying that Wall is doing the same thing as Magnetic Confinement Fusion, just using Magic instead of Magnitism to super heat the plasma. They say that the heating and plasma part still happen, which is where the 200 Million Degree's comes from. It's the same thing, the whole point is Wall is doing Nuclear Fusion. You not agreeing with that cause it was a translator note that conveyed the message is asinine...Them pointing out that the Magic Confinement Field is obviously a play on Magnetic Confinement Field is where their authority ends, anything else about it being a whole lot of power or magic replacing Magnetism in the process is nothing but their personal head canon because Wall’s one sentence where he literally just stated the abilities name, isn’t enough for that conclusion to be drawn
What? Natsu’s fire having the ability to nullify and burn away magic, including time magic, doesn’t make it 200 million degrees Celsius, the two don’t even have anything to do with one another at all, so yes it’s an outlier.Outlier my ass when you have people burning the concept of time
No, right after this a ball is shot into the sky, and people question if the sky is burning because they see it, it’s heat isn’t shown to be anything to that would indicate anything powerful, matter of fact there are far lower temperatures of heat that are treated as being hot.I mean, right after this, Wall fires a ball of fire that is stated to burn the sky, so it's clearly a very hot attack... Once again, all you're doing is baselessly disagreeing cause you don't see how it's the same despite literally being called the same
Yet just a couple months back you were making it seem as though they are frequently wrong, so which is it? They are usually right and we should take their headcanons at face value, or they are frequent wrong and since they aren’t the series creator their assumptions on how an ability works is disregarded?See now you're just making shit up. We don't ignore translations. We sometimes have to nail down on the specific wording of what they're saying, but we never outright ignore or discard them. When Haku's statement first came out, it said he was as fast as light, when officials came out, it said nearly as fast as light, but were essentially the same with minor differences in phrasing, so we needed to double check to nail down how Haku's speed does relate to light speed. But 99 times out of 100, the translators nail the translations and are well at their job,
Nothing about this indicates the translators are 99 percent right, if anything with Haku and the Dragon God element mistake, we have a two for two example of them being wrong.Raws say comparable to light speed
So once again the Officials fail at proper translations
Except this is never actually stated anywhere in the manga at allOnce again, they're not giving their opinions, they are matter of factly saying that Wall is doing the same thing as Magnetic Confinement Fusion, just using Magic instead of Magnitism to super heat the plasma.
Which would be an outlier heat for the verse, and if not would still constitute a temperature downgrade, seeing as the difference would be 100 million degreesEven then, the whole point is that a fusion reaction is happening, which at bare minimum to even produce viable energy and power, needs to be at least 100 Million Degrees Celsius in temperature, so like yeah, even without Magnetic Confinement Fusion being specified, a fusion reaction requires temperatures at this level
He was burning time itself. Zeref himself said as much, and he's like the smartest guy in the verseWhat? Natsu’s fire having the ability to nullify and burn away magic, including time magic, doesn’t make it 200 million degrees Celsius, the two don’t even have anything to do with one another at all, so yes it’s an outlier.
Time in that context was Zeref’s time magic though, and even if it was normal time, that is because of his Magic’s power null, that literally has absolutely nothing to do with its temperature so I don’t know why that was brought up at allHe was burning time itself. Zeref himself said as much, and he's like the smartest guy in the verse
All of which comes from fire dragon slayer magic’s power nullification, so once again no it doesn’t have anything to do with its actual temperature, unless you have a measure for how hot something would even need to be to burn time, that’s extremely unquantifiable anyway, when we compare how Hot Natsu’s heat is quantifiably, it’s far far far lower than 200 million degrees CelsiusNatsu is stated to burn time itself, not time magic... But I guess it makes sense you're one of those scalers after your responses so far... Also nothing indicates levels of that heat are an outlier when Natsu's fire consistently burns shit real fire outright can't effect... Like concepts, shadows, magic, space-time, nothingness, etc.
It has everything to do with temperature, it's the heat that burns time dude...
There is actually a temperature at which space-time begins to distort so...All of which comes from fire dragon slayer magic’s power nullification, so once again no it doesn’t have anything to do with its actual temperature, unless you have a measure for how hot something would even need to be to burn time, that’s extremely unquantifiable anyway, when we compare how Hot Natsu’s heat is quantifiably, it’s far far far lower than 200 million degrees Celsius
Also what do you mean one of those scalers? He was fighting someone who was stated to have the strongest time magic in the series, and then said person said he was burning time as he was burning away at him and his reserves of power, that very clearly is him burning Time Magic
You said this like it was a slur or something lmaoooBut I guess it makes sense you're one of those scalers after your responses so far...
Planck Temperature goes brrrrrrrrThere is actually a temperature at which space-time begins to distort so...
I've met many kinds of FT scalers over the years, the ones who love to downplay make a point of saying Natsu only burned "Time Magic" not time itself like what is directly statedYou said this like it was a slur or something lmaooo
Well Zeref actually mentions both... He says "it's burning my magic" and then says "time itself is burning up"Also it's not Time Magic, it's explicitly Time itself that is being burned according to Zeref... Which is what Zeref manipulates... Time itself
You said this like it was a slur or something lmaooo
If something is called lightning magic, we consider it lightning unless there is a direct contradiction to that. This is especially true in Fairy Tail as it's explicitly stated many times that Magic has a direct connection to nature and is basically completely intertwined with reality. Fire Magic involves real fire. Lightning Magic involves real lightning. And so on and so forth, so Magic Confinement Fusion would be the exact same. Magnetic Confinement Fusion just with Magic involved.
So he’s referring to his magic as time itself, that’s very clear cut.Well Zeref actually mentions both... He says "it's burning my magic" and then says "time itself is burning up"
Where space time begins to distort, not where time begins to be erased, and yes, yes I do, my point isn’t even that Natsu’s magic cant effect concepts in certain situations it , but that in this specific scenario he only burned away at time magicThere is actually a temperature at which space-time begins to distort so...
Also, do you really think the most intelligent person in the series would somehow be wrong or exaggerate at a time like this the fact that it's time itself that's burning up, not just Time Magic?
But that only applies to natural phenomena in the world, like fire, and lightning, Magnetic Confinement Fusion isn’t really the same as either of those examples at all.Fire Magic involves real fire. Lightning Magic involves real lightning. And so on and so forth, so Magic Confinement Fusion would be the exact same. Magnetic Confinement Fusion just with Magic involved.
No, they're separate entities. Time Magic manipulates time itself, so both the magic and the thing it manipulates are being burned.So he’s referring to his magic as time itself, that’s very clear cut.
Well an unsupported viewpoint won't hold up very well against what's directly stated. First you demand a direct manga statement, then when you look at something else that has a direct statement, that's suddenly still not enough.Where space time begins to distort, not where time begins to be erased, and yes, yes I do, my point isn’t even that Natsu’s magic cant effect concepts in certain situations it , but that in this specific scenario he only burned away at time magic
I'm going to say "Based on what?" again because you continue to assert things as true and then refuse to elaborate further. Your points are entirely conjectural, and a lot of people agree clearly, given the near-unanimous disagreement with the revisionBut that only applies to natural phenomena in the world, like fire, and lightning, Magnetic Confinement Fusion isn’t really the same as either of those examples at all.
Where space time begins to distort, not where time begins to be erased, and yes, yes I do, my point isn’t even that Natsu’s magic cant effect concepts in certain situations it , but that in this specific scenario he only burned away at time magic
Or he could just be saying that his time magic is time itself and that he was burning it away, not that it matters because as explained that is more of a component of the nullifying nature of fire dragon slayer magic, the fact him burning time was mentioned at all to try to say 200 million degrees isn’t an outlier is completely random to me.No, they're separate entities. Time Magic manipulates time itself, so both the magic and the thing it manipulates are being burned.
Was a direct statement from the manga claimed that magic was holding plasma, and that both MCF fields were the exact same shown? No.First you demand a direct manga statement, then when you look at something else that has a direct statement, that's suddenly still not enough.
Based on the story? Makarov was referring to natural elements, unless you seem to believe black hole is an actual black hole, why should we just assume this process is the exact same but magic when Makarov’s quote had nothing to do with anything of this nature?I'm going to say "Based on what?" again because you continue to assert things as true and then refuse to elaborate further. Your points are entirely conjectural, and a lot of people agree clearly, given the near-unanimous disagreement with the revision
