Trigger happy with verse deletion? How so? How many were deleted? (I can only think of Scp, Nasuverse, and Shinza, as of late) (With a Saint Seiya deletion being attempted, but got rejected)

Hi Ultima.

There are some criticisms of modal realism that modal realism postulates an excessive number of objects - an infinite number of possible worlds - leading to an unnecessarily large ontology that violates Occam's razor, which favors simpler theories with fewer objects. What do you think about this? I asked this question elsewhere, but I want to hear your perspective on it.

This isn't really a criticism of modal realism in se so much as a question of "Why would you believe that?". And I mean, I don't believe in MR, so, ask someone who does?

Hey Chariot, sorry to bother you, but I have a few questions about Chariot Requiem that Id like to hear your thoughts on.

I was re-reading the final arc of part 5 to create a profile of Chariot Requiem on my wikia, and I was confused by some interpretations of his ability.

Firstly, is it safe to assume that defeating Chariot by destroying the "light" of the soul is basically suicide? I see a lot of people saying this is the case, but on the other hand, couldn't Bruno not returning to his body be due to his injuries and his "undead" state possibly coming to an end?

And also, due to Chariot's nature of being the shadow of the observer's soul, couldn't he receive some sort of Abstract existence from this? or at least type 8 immortality, since his existence is connected to the "light" behind the souls of those who observe him?

I thought i replied, ill reply better later with some scans.
But Tldr would be he probably died because he was already dead so he just ascended, his and Gio's talk kind of says as much with Gio going "your body though-", but that in itself doesn't inherently mean destroying the light of one's soul is safe either.

and Type 8 might have merit, after all, the implication is that it can't die no matter what as long as the light remains, although only one light needs to be destroyed to kill it, but it being the shadow of the soul directly ties it's immortality to said light.
I wouldn't say AE though, it's corporal, can be touched and seen by anyone, and being a shadow of a soul is fucky but not exactly abstract as how we define it (Like you wouldn't call Hanged Man abstract for being light or Black Sabbath or Set abstract for being literal shadows).

Yeah, I had that impression while rereading it, I think if it was really Araki's intention for it to be some kind of suicide, he would probably draw Bucci's soul exploding apart like he did with Shigechi's soul when Kira kills him or smth, Gio probably wouldnt mention his body either, I asked because I was reading some old VS threads where you brought up that possibility and I was curious to know if there was still anything to support that interpretation.
It seems like Immortality 8 makes sense, but regarding AE, I thought it could be a similar case to God Hand in Berserk, who have physical bodies that can be touched, but their essence is defined as a "mass of thought" and gained AE for that.
I'm just not sure if being a "soul shadow" would fit as some sort of abstraction.

Also, thanks for the answer !

Hello Agnaa sir,

I hope you're doing well. The thread we discussed regarding the issue has been posted here. Could you kindly review it? Your feedback would be appreciated there.

Hello Bambu (I miss you.) How can you upload a prepared profile of a character to the wiki?

There's a lot of obvious issues ("formed a tornado a tornado"), but the biggest question is whether you have any calcs for the statistics? You have her at wall level with no calcs.

I fixed that.

Shaking a house, sending someone flying a vast distance (twice) while breaking a large glass window on both should be sufficient for Wall Level without the need for calculations.

The subsonic speed is probably gonna need a a calc though. Forming a large tornado via speed which moved a cow and a wooden plank should be enough, but I'll ask someone to calc it.
Mr. Bambu
Mr. Bambu
You need calculations. Speculation doesn't do. If there's a standard calc that covers them, fine, no worries in that instance.
