I always wanted to make Accel World and Log Horizon characters for the wiki. It'd be pretty cool.
Here's a pretty good feat for Log Horizon characters too. Looks like 8-A to 7-C feats to me: https://youtu.be/WvNEMSz6GpY

Pseudo Timestop is more just Enhanced Senses or Statistics Amplification
Like Cole MacGrath or Raiden (Metal Gear) (Who should really have it changed if it hasn't already since I last looked)

Apparently SAO Alicization episode 7 is gonna completely skip the Zakkaria tournament, so as a summary: Kirito and Eugeo have to go through this tournament to enter the Sword Academy in Centoria (This is to get into the city itself so that they have a chance to find Alice again).
Anyways of course they win (but not without some struggle ofc) and enter the academy. Sooo yeah. That's that. Sucks that they're skipping the tournament. Gigguk would've been proud.

To be fair not many people exactly have any openness left in their minds to keep for SAO
Aincrad, Fairy Dance, even Ordinal Scale were all so massively flawed of course they'd turn a blind eye to SAO 2 and Alictization's stuff they get right. Which was enough stuff to make watching those 2 actually enjoyable.

Really? I thought Ordinal Scale was a fun ride, and delved into important themes of the series that's expanded on later. Speaking of themes...

Oh yeah, it had good qualities
Of course in some moments of the movie I could literally hear Geoff screaming through my screen
Such as that time Asuna just said "lol I got my memories back cause secret diary kek"
Which completely defused the conflict and thereby the presentation of the theme. If it was an actual struggle for Kirito to get their precious memories back, I would have liked it a bit more.
In fact, the whole ending of the movie just throws the quality of the first part out the window. It basically boils down to "muh if you steal too much memories somehow people die IDK", Kayaba's ghost shows up out of nowhere with no elaboration, and the fight with AINCRAD is just a middle finger to every form of logic you thought SAO possessed some semblance of
Not to mention, Kirito was abusing his Kirito powers way too much. He goes from 10-C to 9-C within like a week. Not to mention, the visuals really didn't line up with the AR setting, IE, Eiji jumping off a pretty tall thing without so much as leg recoil and AR sword clashing that somehow lets Kirito square off against him in a Sword fight.
So yeah
Didn't like Ordinal Scale that much, but, then again, I didn't hate it. It did have a good general direction, but got derailed before it could see it through.

Episode 7 is finally out and we finally have an explanation to the powers! Woo!
Also I just realized Incarnation (the imagination thing that I quoted in the OP) isn't on any of the characters' profiles except for Alice and kiiind of Kirito, but it's never explained in general.
Someone's gotta add that. That, or I'll add it later when I can get my skinny arse out of bed.

Also it's revealed in this episode that if you use Incarnation (or in this case confidence) in battles, it literally warps reality to let you have an advantage, as seen with the spar between Kirito and his senpai. Her confidence was so high that it made her win, even though Kirito had far superior Object Control Authority.
Would this mean all characters that use Incarnation have minor Reality Warping or Probability Manipulation?

So is everyone down for adding limited Reality Warping to everyone that can use Incarnation?
I'll update the abilities section and the information for Incarnation if this gets approved.
It'd be something like this: Limited Reality Warping (via Incarnation. Allows the user to bend the world's laws to their whims to an extent via their willpower or imagination, either to increase the chances of winning a fight against stronger opponents, increase the range of attacks, or create miracles not possible with standard Sacred Arts. All beings in the Underworld are capable of this, however only those who recognize this ability can consciously use it to their advantage)
Edit: I think it being Limited Probability Manipulation makes more sense, since it would be redundant to repeat Spatial manip and Transformation in the Reality Warp description.
This is what it would look like: Limited Probability Manipulation (via Incarnation. Can increase the chances of a desired event occuring, such as winning a fight against stronger opponents, through sheer willpower, confidence in succeeding, or imagination)
Also any user of Incarnation should have this weakness: If (Insert user here) loses willpower, confidence, or imagination on succeeding in an event, Incarnation will not activate or even lower the chances of (Insert user here) succeeding in said event.
Tell me what you guys prefer, reality warp or prob manip.

Why not add: "Limited Reality Warping, Possible Probability Manipulation"?

The Incarnation most people in UW use is very limited, Statistics Amplifacion only. The real one is used by very few people (Kirito, Bercouli, Alice, Eugeo, and a few others)

Imo I still think everyone that uses Incarnation uses Limited Probability Manipulation instead of Statistics Amplification, because it changes the laws of the world in their favor to win, albeit by a small amount for most of the citizens of the Underworld, and it can only be canceled by someone with equal or better Incarnation.
