I sure love those people who write a single sentence disagreeing with someone without explaining why they are disagreeing. It brings a lot to the discussion and helps us reach a conclusion.

"The spiral of origin is the primordial beginning of all things in this pattern of reality. All things pass through the great wheel, their natures and their histories—past, present, and future—are connected to it. It is thus a vast and empty place. It reflects what I am, in a way. I am connected to it, and I am a part of it as well. I am it. |
"...Indeed. Shiki is incapable of causing anything but destruction. And as far as you're concerned, I'm Shiki after all." "---Shiki?" "...My origin is nothingness. As a result, Shiki, who is possessed of that body, can perceive death. Two years ago--- when she fell into a coma, the outside world was shut off to her. Her vision turned inward toward the nothingness called Ryougi Shiki, and she felt the touch of death. Shiki floated on the sea known as the spiral of origin for a long, long time. A solitary form in the void of ÒÇîÒÇÇÒÇì." ...With an origin like "nothingness" the girl would certainly feel compelled to return everything to nothing. Therefore, she was able to kill all things without exception. Even if the personality of Shiki tried to deny it, her soul itself was oriented toward the death of everything. "That is Shiki's ability. Just like Asagami Fujino, she has a unique channel that can see things normal humans can't. Eyes that can glimpse the spiral of origin, itself a microcosm of the greater world. But, I can dive even deeper than she. Or rather... I suppose you could say that I myself am that spiral." |
>ZERO, did you even the other parts?ALRF said:ZERO, did you even the other parts?
Shiki hersrlf doesn't knlw, she just says" oh i am connected to this, therefore i'm this...right?"
Even the way she said it heavily implies she isn't Akasha
Of course, i dont care at all if a boundless is "showing" a personality or not, i also care less if 1-A's are showing personality. Because these are just metaphors, and fundamentally irrelevant. But this is still higher-dimensional levels, excluding such a important part of the Nasu Verse. Is almost like excluding Everything told about it.VenomElite said:Damn this has gotten out of hand. Let me summarize it like this:
8. @Prospect you're kinda gauging things a bit too realistically (or should I say philosophically), in fiction things are not so blurred. We have Tier 0s showing personalities when in theology that is impossible. It's make believe after all.
Technically this isn't accurate, it'd be more accurate to say that she's connected to the Void/Akasha as she was connected to it when she was a fetus. She'd be dead normally as the World usually kills off such occurrences for safety, but her lineage as a Ryougi saved her and the Ryougis later awakened the Void personality who created her normal personalities and went back to sleep. There's no 'largest part of X' involved here.Matthew Schroeder said:Shiki is a part of the Akasha.
Literally everything is a part of the Akasha as it is the root of everything. Shiki is just like the largest part of the Akasha.

This is how you know it's from Cokesakto, and that automatically discredits the whole statement as evidence.Matthew Schroeder said:All creation dances to the tune of magic and the melody of the arcane Art
Sera Loveheart said:I can't believe she's even 1-C. Again, we do not scale avatars to the power of whatever they are an avatar of. Otherwise we'd have a High 1-A Randolph Carter and a Tier 0 Tenchi Masaki (again). Ven already said this.
Shiki is no different.
