I'M LITERALLY AGREEING WITH YOU, ARE YOU ALL NEVER SATISFIED??? Seriously, though, the manga bit with the Raikage works, unless that's the Raikage somehow just vanishing from Sasuke's perception before he even activated the ability, showing a level of speed he had not shown at the time, which is heavily unlikely. This shows that, while much faster than normal attacks, Amaterasu is not instant, rather just being your standard speed-amped attack.
It didn't spawn on him, it spawned where he was because that's where sasuke was looking, then. Sasuke's sharingan couldn't keep up with his movement and could only see after images of him. It's as simple as that.
Oh, that font is iconic, how did I not see that?
This also sounds like it might be possible, I just wasn't willing to bring it up.
?????????????
No dude, the first panel clearly shows that the amaterasu has already been formed and that the raikage had yet to move a single muscle.And only in the second panel was when the raikage dodged, he was not blitzing sasuke or whatever, he just moved out of the way of the attack
Tbh, I haven't seen an argument that he would use it. Gaara is essentially the same, from his perspective, as the random Namekian villagers, and that's not what he did on them.
Coming from someone who thinks everyone is wrong because you say "no" without any explanation
It is, its just controlled by Gaara. The only sand not really ordinary is the one carried by Gaara, but all other sand sources he use are normal sand, its the reason why he spends more chakra controlling external sources of sand.
Does it really ******* matter? Characters in dragon ball release bursts of energy all the time even just by powering up that can crack the ground around them and send things flying.
Except that when you lose Ki, you become weaker. Vegeta took my attacks out of his caliber and was still able to keep fighting and use Ki attacks. If it weren't for his stamina, he would probably have lost after taking the x4 kamehameha
Because someone who can fight for long periods of time while also being able to take hits is gonna be better in the long run that someone who can run out of chakra and it one ki blast away from being past tense
It's never been stated that he was using his armour all the time during his battles, because not only does it lower his speed, but it also the technique that consumes the most amount of chakra, so its not viable to be using all the time.
I only say that about statements that are factually not enough to do shit.
Being controlled by him means it isn't normal sand, it's infused with Chakra.
Cool, when does Vegeta do this without moving?
Yeah, when you get hit, you get weaker. What's the issue?
Cmon, "one ki blast" isn't doing anything to his perfect, passive shield.
He's typically shown to be wearing it everything he gets hit(except when Momoshiki hit him, but he was still doing alright afterward, so idk).
As I said, Sasuke was looking at where he was, then was looking at the Samurai.
I was wondering what C was saying.You know that the whole point of afterimages is that it looks like a person is there when they're really not, don't you?
As I said, Sasuke was looking at where he was, then was looking at the Samurai.
Hell, the statement on that same page literally thwarts your whole argument that Amaterasu travels.
Why would it say "Amaterasu ignites whatever he's looking at" and not "Amaterasu is a fire attack that comes from his eyes"?
More proof he's dodging Sasuke's gaze and not dodging Amaterasu while it's traveling to him.
Yes, but that is not how afterimages are represented in manga in general.There is always one detail or two that points out that the character is using afterimages
The samurai would have been burned instantly if it didnt travel, but that was not what happened
And how does this proves anything either?if the raikage is too fast for sasuke to even track he wouldnt be able to hit any projectile either, it goes both ways
So, you mean like, it blocks the part he's pointing at, or his viewpoint, or...
Instinctive reaction, detects the attack, and cover gaara making it explode instead of him, getting in the way of the pointing
Or substitution jutsu, that saves as well
Nothing changes on my second point
Everyone's doing the "He does it on people he thinks are weak" bit, but he literally doesn't. He didn't do it once on the Namekian villagers, or literally anyone who wasn't a Saibaman or his old enemy.
Assuming that it would protect him from something that does not even travel would be a nlf if we see the amaterasu as a projectile, so i do think its important here
It is an attempt attack by vegeta, so the sand would react as such since it is instinctive
Show examples of this in a fight? He didn't seemed to do it against various oponents far weaker than him
Ah, so i vote incon then because is more funny.
How the sand is gonna block something that explode you from inside?
By getting in the way of the poiting
By complete accident. It could just make it so Vegeta isn't pointing at him, instead pointing at a sand shield.
His mom's ghost forms shields and constructs around him.
Mutliple times acctually, one of the first times it happened was just that
