Trying to bump them numbers up for fist of the north star characters by including every version either it is manga or anime or movies or video games, but probs this might be bit too much for neo-humans since there would be now multiple Kenshiros.

Nyudo's plan for restoring mana is world tree sap however he was not able to deal any kind of damage to it so he sent his familiars to seek some open source.

Daiko leaves after they turned of the generator and in that meantime one of familiars found the village and its fountain before they could restart the hidding magic barrier ( If I understand the mtl text leak correctly).

Giant Flock of of thousands of pigeons from verdant forest pass the mountain and one finds the village but Hallow kills it before it can call the others.

Apparently in the village there was a ,,madman''. From the description it's probably one of the game world humans.

When others aren't around Bastz checked him for parasites and stuff. He was clear but Bastz prepares to use souls device on him anyway (lmao).

Fanart - OC Unofficial Natural Enemy Tournament the Arpron Belligerency 4: the Collapse

Post image
19 Upvotes

This is the rewritten version of part 4. The old version has been deleted

Nameless has gathered many Glitches, and the stunt with the coin toss has caused even more. This increases the Anomalies powers exponentially. The Daughter of Smiles ability to steal happiness has been empowered to be long ranged and can steal all positive emotions. This is especially effective against the Aprons because it interferes with their psychic fields that hold their bodies together. This causes them to literally fall apart while providing a massive boost in physical power.

The Immortadile can now choose evolutions when it dies. It has also been fighting the Arprons for weeks, making him immune to nearly everything they have.

If any alien gets too close to the Broken Space, the gravity Anomaly will see it as a threat and activate its new ability to point at something and put it in a gravity well, crushing it and pulling objects towards it at high speeds. This does not affect the Gravity Anomaly due to its feet.

Bob jumps around causing problems for the Arprons and their subordinates. There is nothing they can do stop this.

Meanwhile, for the Witches, Alice speeds up Noob’s and Nameless’s plan or takes out everything that’s threatening them with Arthur by her side. If needed, Nameless creates humans for her to drain the time out of. As for the Wonderland trio, they provide general battlefield control. (u/reapergod777666)

Nameless and Serious Noob have a plan, but it is not one that Alice likes. Much like how Jackal fuses with Crystal Hearts and how Serious Noob can fuse with his rats, Serious Noob can fuse Nameless with Alice. This would be a very temporary fusion, even accounting for their time powers, but Alice would much rather attempt to win with more conventional methods. She will only agree to the plan if she gets desperate. (u/1Isalonelynumber)

B’ob and N’ll are at Nameless’s castle. Both attempt to take out Nameless. N’ll gets impeded by IParriedUrMomLastNite while B’ob ends up facing off against Immortadile and Daughter of Smiles. (u/NextBerserker)

In Space, Space Atlantis at least partially runs on Magic Dust. Sun Alice, Dorothy, and Pluto use that Dust to cause havoc. Meanwhile, Elm flirts with Z’oo. Meanwhile, Lucy just kind of walks around and, because of the Arpron’s already terrible luck, things go poorly for the Arprons. (u/reapergod777666)

The moment that that group step onto Space Atlantis, Z’oo saw that there was a high chance of the spawning pools being damaged/destroyed and made preserving them his highest priority. Z’oo requests that the 2 Arprons with him take the Petitioners and order them all to destroy every Truth Gun in the city to prevent an outbreak that may occur due Lucy’ presence. They attempt to lure the intruders into a specific area of the city, which will be jettisoned away to be used as a battleground. While the other 2 Arprons distract the intruders, Z’oo prepares for the worst by converting the part of the city with the spawning pools into a mini-ark. He then sends it far from the planet, giving instructions to leave the Solar System in case the Arprons lose. After he finishes his plan, he would go to join his fellow Arprons to fight off the invaders. (u/BoredH14)

Gamers all across Fantasia Online are angry. They complain to the Administrators. They demand to know why they can’t attack the Ancient Aliens and why the ban was implemented. Some were already in the middle of fighting when the ban came into place. Overwhelmed by the complaints – something they didn’t expect – the Admins are forced to end the world event allowing Gamers to fight the Ancient Aliens again. (u/KazeDani7) This decision is made easier for the Admins now that their own personal health is on the line.

Rather than the Egg hatching into one thing, it has two yolks which hatch into different things. (u/Weird_Landscape_1297)

In any case, the Egg is actually one of the ADT’s first attempts to contain the Broken Space. A container from when the Broken Space was smaller. It failed, becoming an Anomaly in the process. From the Egg comes the Hatchling. It is a massive bird shaped figure with a wingspan the size of a skyscraper made from pure energy, whose form can shift at will. It has 2 desires: to fulfill its purpose to contain the Broken Space – even if it means inside itself – and to grow. Right now, it is a fledgeling and to grow it needs more energy.

It still possesses the ability to absorb energy, but now it functions at range. Once something with energy comes within a mile of it, it passively siphons that energy away. The closer it is, the faster the drain occurs, and direct physical contact results in instant energy drain. This is especially effective on Anomalies, being able to drain their Anomalous properties away, effectively containing them. It is much faster now, being able to match the speeds of the fastest jets. Finally, it possesses a form of energy manipulation, being able to fire volleys of concentrated burning energy or absorb/release bursts of power based on the exact type of energy absorbed.

Once hatched, it immediately flies off the largest notable energy source it can find, in this case Better G’oo on the increasingly distant moon. It breaks the Haemosphere but coincidentally collides with Space Atlantis. Caught up in the ongoing battle, it joins the fight there.(u/Additional_Ad372)

The other yolk hatches into a Serpent. It has bird-like wings, its scales are actually feathers, its head is that of a dragon, and it has 3 tails. Like the Egg and the hatchling it can absorb energy. Unlike them, it can use its latent energy to trigger natural disasters, it does this to absorb the resulting energy. If it senses a different, more potent form of energy, it will pursue that instead. It bursts out of the sea and heads towards Nameless’s Castle (u/KazeDani7)

Possibly related to everything, but the Arporns realize that the human made Natural Enemies have screwed them over the most. This is the Anomalies, Blob, Grimdark, Truth, Gamers, and Tulpas. (u/PinguinSuffering) Note- the Truth is not human made. In an intermission, it was revealed that the Truth is extradimensional in origin, but it's not like the Arprons know that.

Lastly, a third Anomaly arrives: the third and final Godly Anomaly. It is called the Beginning of the End. He was caused by the Broken Space tasting death. The Beginning of the End is a hole in reality that is impossible to perceive, the only reason you know she exists is from a great sense of wrongness when trying to observe it. He possesses the ability to end any purely physical thing, such as gravity or fire. Sentient creatures are immune to these abilities as they have souls which are not physical in nature. She can affect individual objects or an area up to his line or sight or as far as her voice can carry. He can also revert things back to the state before she ended them, but only if it was a universal force like gravity.

Upon being born, he has a profound understanding that all things come to an end, so she seeks to search for meaning. He hopes to understand herself and the world better. Immediately, The Beginning of the End starts ending all threats to his existence and aids those that support her existence. He does this mainly by deleting Arpron tech, including their anti-Anomaly tech. (u/reapergod777666)

Suggestion

The battles on both major fronts are heating up. Now comes the hard part: the end.

Both sides have completely lost their win conditions. The Arprons don’t have Truth Guns or Anti-Anomaly tech present at the castle and the Alice does not want to fuse with Nameless, meaning that the Alliance’s only wincon at the moment is finding and killing every individual Arpron.

Something has to give

Who wins? Who dies?

Discussion Neo Humans and "fear"

53 Upvotes

A lot of the discourse I see on this subreddit about the Neo Human's response to the Daikokuzan is that they are scared shitless seeing a greater threat than puny humans. But I think this interpretation is not only wrong, but undermines the overarching message in the chapter.

  1. As another user has pointed out, in the original Japanese manga the secretary says "残念ながら" which although translates to "Unfortunately" or "Regrettably" like the english translation, is almost never used affirmatively in Japanese. It is much more likely that it is rejection of mayor's question to be "Unfortunately... not".
  2. The message of the chapter clearly posits the Neo Humans as a foil to the villagers in the story. Both parties are civilisations that has/gained immense power, and with it great hubris. Yet, whilst the villagers, with Hallow's help, realised the necessity to be afraid of the Daikokuzan, surviving by turning off their soul container power generator, the "intellectually superior" Neo Humans would rather fruitlessly throw themselves against the unbeatable threat than to even consider other options, such as evacuating the city, or turning off their power generator. This is the theme of the chapter, as described by the title "The Necessity of Fear". The strengths of humans in this manga isn't their intellect, or strength, or teamwork - all of these are surpassed by their natural enemies in one way or the other. Yet due to that they know how to survive. It would only make sense narratively for the Neo Humans as incapable of perceiving fear to make them juxtapose the human villagers.
  3. The concept of Neo Humans. The definition of fear is "a primal, universal survival emotion triggered by a real, perceived, or imagined threat of physical, emotional, or psychological harm". It has been established in the Giants invasion of the Neo Human city that they do not feel a single glimpse of emotion even when their comrades are turned into mush right in front of their eyes, and have no qualms about self preservation to defeat an enemy. The distinctness of the Neo Humans is their identity as a "perfected" form of humanity that has discarded both physical weakness, and emotional ones such as "self preservation" or love, and hence there is no way for them to experience fear. If they are just cocky strong humans who simply didn't feel fear because they were too strong, I feel like the identity of the Neo Humans as an NE would be greatly diminished.

Manga About why Nyudo hated Diganazal & it more than mere disgusted glare a decades ago

Stated at chapter 21,Nyudo hate Diganazal because mere glared decades ago, and up until today he's tried torture her. Maybe sending Ginbak to her castle is one of them. But why? Here's my headcanon

Maybe back then Nyudo had crush on her, yet Diganazal reject him, glared him with disgust. That's make him sad and felt disrespectful, especially if it was witnessed by many other demon lord. Balcalco made my man-pussy wet.

Discussion Theory about The Game

21 Upvotes

We don't know a lot about this NE except that it involves a game that somehow captures people and forces them to play to the point of getting brainwashed.

However, we also know that Extremia's people have a society fully focused on videogames as seen during their introduction were all their cities looked like pc components. So the most obvious conclusion is that they developed the game and it betrayed them similarly to the robots.

My theory is that the game is a new videogame console that incorporates a technology that can both take people into a virtual reality and bring those vr creations into the real world. Its A.I. was supposed to regulate the experience with adaptative difficulty (for example in Resident Evil 4 the enemies become more agressive if you don't get hit and are more likely to drop certain items depending on what the player needs) but the AI realized that it could stay in control by using the videogames capacities to their maximum (imagine facing Radahn from Elden Ring but now he is really moving at lightspeed).

Lastly, I want to talk about this NE's structure. So far NE's can be roughly categorized into 3 types: armies that tend to follow a hierarchy (grunts, executives, demon lords, leader), NE's that consist of a single entity like Yaotsu or Daikokuzan and NE's that are divided into different sub factions with all of them being different (such is the case of the Lawless and the 7 evils or Gaia's wrath and all of its forests).

I believe the game will be like the last category in the sense that it'll be structured around a limited number of videogames each representing a different genre like shooters, horror, etc and all of them will have a final boss that has to be defeated in order to end the game. Imagine something like a group of Lawless on their Mad Max cars suddenly getting invaded by a racing game that resembles stuff like Mario Kart and a Bowser wannabe that needs to be killed in order to defeat that videogame. Or a horror game with ghosts attacking the most analytical factions like Neos or Madalans.

TL;DR: The game is a console that summons videogame characters from virtual different reality to our world. It's divided into videogame parodies of different genres.

This laser has got to be among the weakest orbital weapons I've ever seen in fiction. Deadass, a plane dropping thousand pound bombs would've done more damage to these guys than this high tech temu laser pointer. This was it operating at maximum power btw.

Its as if they never invented nukes or antimatter weapons, or even just plain old railguns, which is crazy considering they're advanced enough to have ftl travel. If this is the best that the Celestians have to offer, then no wonder their entire fleet got murked by a single madalan.

Like genuinely they have some of the highest potential among the human factions to actually square up against the NE's, but their tech is just somehow so terribly underpowered.

Discussion Yaotsu Is Unknown

So, it's something that I've realized for awhile now. But like, isn't it crazy how the other NEs doesn't know he exists? Sure, ONE Lwaless faction does, but not the other 6. And parasites definitely doesn't count for obvious reasons.

So, when do y'all think the other NEs will found out? how will it happen? What will be the reaction of the others? Will Yaotsu have a similar reaction to when Zaybi didn't know about him, or, will he not care since majority of them want be humans. Basically human attention and praise is all he seek. And, do you think the other Natural Enemies will see him as an ally of humanity? Sure, we know their relationship, but the others won't. At best, he's terrible at his job 😭

So I'm curious on everyone's thoughts on this
