Talk:Itōei

Nonsense
I know it seems like I'm picking on you specifically, but I'm not. This article, however, is just... ridiculous. I'm sorry, but it is. I mean... so, if you concentrate your emotions, you can attain a transformation? Spiritual energy is already influenced by one's emotional state of mind. Anger raises the intensity. Doubt or fear results in fluctuations, as shown by Ichigo whenever his will begins to flicker. When one controls their emotional state and focuses, their power becomes more accessible. In addition, there is not a lick of sense in this entire article. So if one projects their thoughts through their energy... they undergo a Hollowfication-like transformation. That DOESN'T happen. It doesn't. Not that it just doesn't, but it CAN'T happen. It makes no sense. My eyes hurt just reading it because it goes from one point to the next without logical transition. I'll break it down my reasoning here.


 * Through projecting destructive currents from one's spiritual pressure, the power in which it is released is augmented through then projecting their intentions upon it.

What's... destructive currents? You mean reiatsu? How are you projecting reiatsu from reiatsu? And AGAIN, reiatsu already projects one's emotions through it. Yamamoto revealed that himself. He caused his opponents to swear in fear. Killer intent is the main form of this. How it becomes some new ability is beyond me.


 * Increasing the force in which it is exerted, and then giving it a reason to continue it's performance, the energy becomes an intangible manifestation of one's feelings.

What do you mean giving it a "reason"? Reiatsu isn't some sentient being. It's the force of your reiryoku being projected outwards as a manifestation. That's what reiatsu is. So far, the only thing you've been describing is reiatsu itself.


 * However, as a form of Spiritual Energy Manipulation, it's principals are similar to other abilities using Spiritual Energy. Through projecting their inner thoughts upon the manifested spiritual pressure, one is capable of giving their spiritual pressure and power abilities obtained through Kidō.

Again, I'm losing track of logical transition. Where did we go from manifestation of feelings to Kidō abilities? And again, reiatsu itself is spiritual pressure with the emotions of the user. When that emotion is stable, it becomes stronger and refined. When Ichigo focused, his reiatsu became strong enough to allow him to cut Zaraki. When it wavers, it becomes weaker and fluctuates. So, once again, all you're describing is what reiatsu is.


 * The desired abilities usually reflect the personality of the practitioner. The abilities achieved are manipulated through the release of emotions, using one's feelings as the trigger to activating the ability. However, when using such an ability, the strain on the mind is increased. The mental toll it takes is great enough to cause the practitioner to fall deep into their emotions, becoming the embodiment of their inner thoughts.

WHAT abilities? How is projecting one's reiatsu somehow magically give them new abilities?


 * The ability that their energy is given stays the same throughout each use. However, if suffering from something similar to trauma, the ability can be slightly altered. This does not stop the practitioner from changing their intentions. They can shift their emotions and inner thoughts according to the situation, but the ability would only be slightly altered.

I'm... I'm so lost right now. And I'm not a dumb person, I don't lose track of things. But nothing you've written there has made sense or has subsequently fit together.


 * Through completely understanding their heart and inner thoughts, they can shift the ability into something greater.

...This sounds like a bad teenage drama. But in all seriousness, again, this is just saying that by being able to focus, they can better control their reiatsu. It doesn't give them new abilities. It doesn't.

So, to recap. All you've done here is describe what reiatsu is and does. And try to assign the simple act of releasing one's spiritual pressure into some sort of ridiculous ability-giving power, which doesn't add up and doesn't make sense.

If I remember correctly, I told you to think before creating new concepts. Bleach isn't so simple a series that you can just come up with anything and it makes sense. Because screw logic. No, it doesn't work like that. I never read the Toriko series but if this concept is heavily based off of it, the author of that series is a real idiot. Even if a concept sounds plausable in another series, you can't simply move it over here and expect it to work. Again, if it seems like I'm picking on you or that I'm being rude/mean, then I apologize. But I'm not speaking out of emotion, I'm speaking based solely on logical reasoning. --Silver-Haired Seireitou (talk) 09:43, March 8, 2013 (UTC)
