So recently, something about Hakumen came up in a debate thread that I think deserves proper attention. I'm not exactly the most knowledgeable person when it comes to BlazBlue, so bear with me here.
During Hakumen's first fight with Ragna, Kokonoe attempts to send Hakumen away using what both she and him refer to as an "event disruption". It fails. Hakumen nopes it pretty damn hard.
At first, the scene just looks like she's trying to teleport him somewhere else. But I did some looking when I saw this, and I'm pretty sure the term"event disruption" is meant to refer to this. According to the wiki's page, this act "erase(s) one reality and overwrite(s) it with another", and in doing so it "changes a possibility into reality". From what I gather, that basically means she attempted to overwrite the current reality with a possible one so that he was somewhere else instead of standing in front of Ragna.
On top of the obvious Reality Warping involved, this sounds to me like either Causality Manipulation or really high-end Probability Manipulation. If either is the case, then Hakumen should have resistance to one or the other on his page, since him resisting it was pretty blatantly shown. Moreover, the BlazBlue wiki page for Event Interference outright references the fact that he and Jin Kisaragi can nullify said effects with the Power of Order, so even if my analysis of the video I linked is dead wrong, they should probably have resistances to this added anyway.
Hopefully I'm not missing something. This seems like a solid thing here.
EDIT: I already realize that "Phenomenon Intervention" (which is mentioned as being the same thing as Event Interference/Disruption) is already on their profiles, but I stand by the opinion that this should count as probability or causality resistance as well.
