Well, you keep talking about "nasu perspective" which is not an equal ground. I could say the same that Kazura law manip is not law manipulation from "masadaverse perspective". Therefore the equalization. What categorized as what.
We use in verse explanation for feats no? If reality marble is not law manipulation then it is not law manipulation. If Masadaverse reality warping is law manipulation then it is law manipulation.
Of course misaka (your example) is different. In To Aru, they have Esper, Magician, Thelesma users, etc. Kamachi said Esper cannot use magic and only personal reality, then it is not magic. The same goes for every orher verses out there.
The easiest example is Touma. He can negate anything "supernatural". Now what can be categorized as supernatural? The answer is the same as above. If something supernatural, then it is supernatural, therefore Touma negate.
The real question is which perspective should we use for the supernatural part? Warhammer or Toaru? Both have different mechanics. The same goes for Nasu vs Masada. The easiest way is to categorized which is which.
But i guess everything is up to debate.
I just feel that our discussion is clogging up the thread since no one else bother to participate.
We aren't working purely from the Nasu perspective, but at the Same time, you can't just say that something is necessarily law manip to everyone because it is for your verse. If Masadaverse doesn't consider the Moon Cell Ganme Rules as law manip then it would probably default to information manip, which they do not resist.
Not really, since we try to equalize things to what is closest to them in the other verse, but in some cases the difference is too extreme. For example, iirc Haki is closeted to what Naruto calls Chakra, but the two abilities diverge to such an absurd degree that they can no longer be equalized. If anything, I would are that Masadaverse may not consider the nasu game rules as what they would call a Law. If Kazuradrop pulled out a Reality Marble, then they would very likely be able to resist and combat their effects.
But do you get my point? Even something that one verse regards as not magic can still be equalized as magic to another verse.
It's not that simple either tho. Styles from Medaka Box, for example, are techniques, and not considered to be inherently supernatural within Medaka Box, although it is very complicated. What about the Vampires or Pillarmen from jojo? In Touaru vampires are considered supernatural, but in jojo vampires are just a product of some really good acupuncture, and the pillarmen are a naturally occurring race of their own. Would he still be able to negate their abilities?
My point is, you cannot just use the name of on the can when the mechanics best equalize to something else.
I mean, it is very relevant, so I think it's cool to continue
