List of anime referenced in Bakuman Can anybody give me a complete reference to all anime whose titles, artists and/or lines were referenced in the Bakuman series? It would also be great if you could let me know when they were mentioned. External sources will be appreciated too. <Q> To Love Ru <S> (A discussion betwee...
Bleach Naruto Dragon Ball Gintama The Qualifications of a Man (Ikki Kajiwara)
Why is Koro-sensei's sibling Itona not like him? When I watch the anime I get excited by Koro-Sensei's new student, Itona. He has many similarities with koro-sensei. So, my question is: why do they look different? Koro-sensei is like an octopus and Itona is like a human. <Q> Koro-sensei was... ... <S> originally the...
As for why they don't look alike: Itona had his tentacles implanted into him. As @Toshinou Kyouko explained, Itona and Korosensei aren't actually related.
Did Light Actually Like L (in a friendship way)? When I watched episode 25 of Death Note (AKA the one when L, Watari, and Rem died), I noticed that Light was strangely kind to L. Is that because he was nice to L before he died, or because he actually thought of L as a friend? This is something I have been pondering ove...
Light (that being the Light who didn't realize he was Kira), did like L and considered him a friend.
Does Rolo's Geass have no Limits? Rolo has been using his Geass since he was very young and using it beyond limits; for various missions and assasinations again and again. But he never lost control over the Geass like Lelouch and Mao. Also if he had lost control before dying then what would be his situation if he had u...
The limit of his geass comes from a sort of body-based time limit (surviving while his heart is stopped) preventing extended use, rather than a limit of the power itself.
In which episode does Tsuna get stronger? I would like to know in which episode Tsuna gets stronger, so that I can tell my friend and get him to stop bothering me! Can anyone answer it for me please? <Q> The episode is aptly named too: <S> "I Want to Win! <S> Moment of Awakening" <S> He can use the Hyper Dying ...
He gets stronger in episode 25, and the story takes on a shonen-ish type of twist.
How was The Dwarf in the Flask created? In the Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, it was revealed that The Dwarf in the Flask was an experiment of the King of Xerxes and that it has Van Hohenheim's blood. But it wasn't explained what method was used to create him. So, how was The Dwarf in the Flask created? Was it...
Considering the Dwarf in the Flask knew a vastly complicated array like theXerxes Array, it's probably a piece of Gate Knowledge put into a body by analchemist using Slave 23's blood.
How does Renji become stronger than Rukia? I only have the anime to go on so maybe there's an explanation in the manga. It seems clear that Ichigo is stronger than Rukia was in episode 1 at the point of his first battle with Renji. In fact it seems like Ichigo may have been stronger as soon as he became a soul reaper, ...
Renji appears stronger in the anime but eventually in the manga when Rukia reaches her bankai and becomes captain of the 13th squad she gains tremendous power and therefore is thought to become stronger than Renji.
Where is this picture from? How do I use Reverse Image Search to find the source of an anime/manga image? So I see an image that I believe is from either an anime or a manga. What are some ways that I can go about finding what series it's from? Try these options: Google reverse image search (browser built-in suppor...
To search for images on browsers other than Chrome, you'll have to: Go to Google image search .
Will a person die when their name is written in the situation of death? The answer by Imprfectluck at this question made me wonder what would happen to people whose name was written down in the details of another persons death. For example: John Doe dies after his date with Jane Doe . The foremost basic rule of the ...
Jane Doe will die of a heart attack 40 seconds later (unless the cause/time of death is also described for the second victim).
What is the background story of Hatsune Miku? I do understand it is a fictional character, and so I feel there must be a story behind this virtual Diva. I am interested in learning "how" Hatsune Miku became interested in singing. <Q> As is the case with most vocaloids, the company that invented 初音ミク (Hatsune Miku), Cry...
There is no one background story for Miku.
Why can't the birdcage be cut? Why does it appear that Doflamingo's Bird Cage is indestructible? What is the different between the strings used in DD's attacks and the birdcage? Why can't Zoro cut the birdcage? <Q> I don't think it is because Zoro cannot cut the cage that he is trying to push it back. <S> In chapter 2...
Cutting the birdcage or running away, will not benefit anyone with Doflamingo still around.
Can an adult be killed using the Death Note, by remembering their childhood face while writing the name? To kill a person using the Death Note, you are required to think of their face while writing their name. If the Death Note user last saw a person decades ago when he was a child, but has no idea what he looks like...
Also, remember that the purpose of remembering their face is only to distinguish them from people with the same name or to check that you know who you are writing about. However, if you were to kill someone (using a Death Note) who is about 13, and you last saw them when they were 11, that may work.
Anime about a guy who becomes a girl's spirit familiar About two weeks ago, at a Funimation panel, they were showing off some anime that they had recently dubbed. One of the anime they showed caught my eye, but I completely forgot what it was called. As far as I can remember, the plot went something like this: By so...
This would be Hiraga Saito , as the description of the series points out he is an ordinary Japanese boy and becomes the Familiar for Louise
Where did Naruto get his money from? Well, I know this is kind of a weird question. In episode 176 of Naruto Shippuden , when the village's history is shown, we see that everyone hated Naruto, and even his homeroom teacher (Iruka) didn't understood him. He was upset, and Teuchi of Ichiraku Ramen asked him to have som...
This also leads to one of the many plotholes in Naruto's childhood story: Naruto has said a few times that Iruka-sensei was the first person who cared for him, and before then, his life was a hell of loneliness.
Does Kakashi's Sharingan use more chakra than the Uchiha clan members? As in Naruto , Kakashi used his Sharingan only during a combat. Where as the Uchiha clan members (mainly Itachi and Madara), used their Sharingan almost all the time. So, does the Sharingan consume more chakra in the case of Kakashi as compared ...
Sharingans are like weapons - same weapon requires equal strength in order to use them.
What is the meaning of "Argonaut"? In episode 9 of Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? ( DanMachi ) Bell learns how to use an Argonaut skill which Hestia refers to as a skill for a hero. What is the literal meaning of Argonaut when used in this context? <Q> In DanMachi's universe, Argonaut is the name...
Argonaut has a number of meanings, but in this case is simply another word for Adventurer, Hero, Quester etc. A person who is engaged in a dangerous but rewarding quest; an adventurer.
What is the usage of the stones monsters drop? According to the wiki page , adventurers can exchange the gems they collect in the dungeon for money. Magic stones are crystal-like stones that are dropped by monsters. The stones can be exchanged at the Guild for valis (Orario currency). The bigger the stone, the mo...
Charged with magic, Magic Stones can be used to create various tools , such as lighting, sewage purification, cooking stove, refrigerator, etc. Yes, they use it to create potions or armors, weapons and/or anything it can be made out of.
Why does Akane support Sybil? I had a few questions in mind. Akane is someone who strongly believes in justice and she doesn't cross the line even she could. She knows Sybil is not the perfect system and lots of people do suffer from injustice because of it. So why support it then even when she has had the chances to d...
She doesn't want to risk a situation, where system much worse than Sybil would emerge afterwards.
How many Dragons are there in total in Fairy Tail? Some of the Dragon Slayers were trained by Dragons, while others gained Dragon Slayer Magic by means of Lacrima implants (as in the case of Laxus). For Lacrima implants, the Dragon Slayer Magic has to be extracted from a Dragon (that's my assumption). So how many Drago...
there are several dragon slayers (if u look at the dragon war era), but the ones that actually played a role in the story are: Natsu (Fairy Tail) Gajeel (Fairy Tail)
Why wasn't Jiraya able to use Sage mode completely? As shown in Shippuden, Fukasaku, one of the two Great Sage Toads says that Naruto has surpassed his master. Jiraiya was not able to completely enter into sage mode, and as such only had a partial toad-like appearance. This is what I read from Naruto Wiki : Jiraiy...
Naruto surpasses Jiraiya as a Sage because of the nature of Sage chakra.
What race are Emperor Pilaf and Garlic Jr.? In Dragon Ball, Piccolo and Kami are written as if they are demons from Earth, but in Dragon Ball Z, it is revealed that they are actually aliens from the planet Namek. Another prominent character who looks like a demon, Emperor Pilaf , is never stated to be a Namekian,...
Emperor Pilaf is actually a Monster-Type Earthling as it's stated in Daizenshuu #4. Garlic Jr. is a Makyan ( natives of the Makyo Star) not a Albino Namekian.
Why is 1:144 scale used for plastic models? Why a modeler originally choose 1:144 scale to create a plastic model such as GunPla? Why not choose 1:100 or some other number that can easily determine the size of the model from the original size? <Q> (Didn't you ask this exact question of SF&F yesterday?) <S> Traditiona...
As キルア said, 1:144 is a natural way to scale down a 1:12 scale model, which is another historically popular scale. 1:144 is often used for models of large aircraft like airliners.1:144 is half 1:72 which is a very popular scale for scale model aircraft/tanks etc.
Is it logical that Enel's power is ineffective against Luffy? According to the One Piece wikia's Enel page , Enel's power won't work against Luffy because he is a rubber-man. But at some point, I'm confused from this fact since lighting that strikes at 1 Million Volts would burn anything, even rubber.Also, he melted g...
Logically Speaking, Luffy would be the person most vulnerable to lightning attacks, as rubber, being a resistor, cannot channel a high concentration of electricity away like metals can.
Can female Claymores give birth to babies for their husbands? I have just finished the Claymore manga. Clare and Raki stay together at the ending of the story. I am sure they are going to get married. I have a question about the two of them. We know that female Claymores are half-human and half-Yoma hybrid warriors, b...
However Clare may be a special case due to being only a quarter Yoma, instead of half Yoma.
Is it possible that Itachi knew the truth about Tobi being Obito and not Madara? Since Itachi Uchiha always said complete truth, is it possible that he himself knew the truth about Tobi being Obito and not Madara? <Q> Itachi clearly knew that Obito was the true leader of the Akatsuki, and he also knew of and feared Obi...
Itachi definitely knew that Tobi was an Uchiha, but there is little evidence, if any, to say that he knew that Tobi was Obito.
Why does Obito look like an adult during the Kyuubi attack on Konoha? In the series, it is stated that Kakashi was 26 when he became the leader of Naruto's squad. So following that, he was 14 when the Kyuubi attacked the village. Seeing that Obito was the same age as Kakashi, he should be 14 but he didn't look like it....
He could very well be 4 years younger There is no possible way that Kakashi was a 13 year old Jonin during the Kakashi Gaiden. It is just a guess but the looks could have been different because of the zetsu thingy attached to obitos body. But considering that Rin, Obito and Kakashi were in the academy at the same time ...
Why can Naruto use Rasengan more than Kakashi using Chidori? Shinobi using Rasengan can often use it more times in a battle as compared to a shinobi using Chidori. Kakashi on one hand, could only use Chidori upto a maximum of four times a day in Part 1. Naruto, however, even when he is using Shadow clones (meaning that...
I would say Naruto's chakra reserve is at least 6-8 times that of Kakashi's for him to be able to do so many Rasenshurikens when they take up a lot more chakra than a lightning blade.
Why do characters in some art styles have a broken line for mouths? Kaname Madoka from Puella Magi Madoka Magica and Nakano Azusa from K-On! have a broken line for mouths. Why do characters in some art styles have a broken line for mouths? The lines are broken unless it defines lips but I don't know otherwise. <...
Taking for granted that the minimization of some facial features (a small nose, compensated by large eyes, say) is a common feature in "moe" character design today, and observing that the mouth is an oft-minimized feature, the mechanistic explanation, then, is as follows. In short, this choice is likely because it make...
Is Dragon Ball Super considered canon? Is Dragon Ball Super considered an original works by Akira Toriyama? <Q> This really depends on what you consider canon , but for now let's define "canon" as material that's covered in the original source material and has impact on the story. <S> Since this s...
The stories for both the anime and manga versions of Dragon Ball Super are indeed written by Akira Toriyama .
How many episodes of Naruto are there? I have been watching Naruto online, and there are no episodes available to watch after 301, even though I know there is a big war on that episode. Are there any more Naruto episodes? People have been saying there is an episode 700, but is that all manga? <Q> Then Naruto Shippuden,...
There are 220 episodes in Naruto original anime series, which has been completed.
Why does Team Rocket always try to catch Pikachu? Very surprised this question has not been asked yet. In almost every single episode, at least from the first season all the way through to the Unova region, Team Rocket is trying to catch Pikachu to give him to Giovanni. Why do they do this? They often cite reasoning ...
Short answer: This is Team Rocket's version of "following your dreams" The only answer I've been able to come up with is a thematic one. They want to give that "special" Pikachu to their boss.
How old is Gintoki? On the Gintama official page, it says Gintoki's age is 20+. But it is not clear how old he is, because in the last generation of the Joui war, the foursome of Sakata Gintoki, Katsura Kotarou, Takasugi Shinsuke, and Sakamoto Tatsuma joined. So it's confusing what his real age is. <Q> In the Ask Sorac...
It seems that Gintoki is about 25 to 26 years old.
Who, specifically, did Yanagida mean by "half the world"? In episode 4, Yanagida tells Itami that the suits back in Nagata want to know whether the Special Region is worth turning half the world against Japan. Who, specifically, consitutes "half the world" here? As of this point in the anime, we haven't been told muc...
So he's likely to mean most of developed countries that are world powers. Most likely, when Yanagida says half the world's people , he either means people will be divided on which side to take , or, the world's powers will either to decide to get involved, or condemn the actions of Japan .
Who was Annie apologizing to in episode 13? After the great victory gained by humans against the Titans in episode 13, when the trainees were collecting dead bodies, Annie was apologizing to a dead soldier. Who was this? Was it Marco? <Q> In wiki it is stated. <S> Despite her seeming callousness, she has expressed...
Furthermore, Mina and Annie were illustrated to be very close as they sat together in the dining room, which would explain her apologizing to the corpse - she was her friend. If it was Marco's corpse it would be against the wall, like when Jean found him, but this corpse is on the floor, not against a wall, so it could...
Does Kojou Akatsuki have two kids? Does the fourth progenitor, Kojou Akatsuki, have two kids — one with Himeragi Yukina and another one with Asagi Aiba? Well, when I saw the last episode it did not seem like that to me. However, many sites like Wikipedia claim so. Can anyone give me definite evidence? (if possible ...
According to Wikipedia and from what I remember, Yukina and Kojou has a kid that looks a lot like Yukina except for a few minor differences like the eyes.
Is there any correlation between the CPU and CPU candidates' oppai sizes like there is with KanColle? Hyperdimension Neptunia is an anime that is based on the console war. Its characters are based on the game consoles, namely, Sony Playstation, Microsoft XBox, Nintendo Wii, and the scrapped Sega Neptune. Now, moving o...
It could be that the dramatic increase in bust size indicates how her console's demographic would vary. However, there is a correlation to the CPU bust sizes and the targeted demographic of their respective consoles or at least the kind of games associated with the console.
Why didn't Kenshin's master Hiko Seijuro fight Master Shishio? Why didn't Kenshin's master, Hiko Seijuro, come and fight Master Shishio Makoto in the showdown of the Kyoto Arc? This is one of the many times that the Meiji government called on Kenshin to solve their problems, even though his master is as skilled as he...
He was, to put it bluntly, an introverted, misanthropic and somewhat lazy martial artist, who thought the world an unredeemable place, felt Kenshin a fool for wanting to improve society, and didn't care in the least to take down Shishio. Hiko Seijuro is the best swordsman in this universe by far, he is superman. Hiko's...
Why did Madara suddenly turn into Kaguya? In chapter 678, why did Madara suddenly turn into Kaguya? Was this all planned from beginning? <Q> Spoilers ahead! <S> When Black Zetsu impaled Madara, he transfered Kaguya's will into Madara. <S> By this process, Kaguya was revived by using Madara's body as the host vessel...
Yes, it was planned. This was one in order to become the Sage of Six Paths in order to become the vessel for Kaguya's revival.

Did Videl go Super Saiyan in Episode 9 of Dragon Ball Super? At first I thought it was just glowing from the others' Ki but her hair remained yellow after all the Ki glowing stopped. So did she go Super Saiyan? <Q> In order to become a Super Saiyan, you kind of need to be part of the Saiyan race. <S> In the movie Bat...
Videl didn't go Super Saiyan.
Why is it that Beerus and Whis know Frieza but not Buu? It's a known fact that Beerus was asleep for 38/39 years. When he wakes up, Whis tells him that a Saiyan defeated Frieza. I know 39 years is a long time however Buu was also on rampage throughout the universe way before that (fighting the Supreme Kaihous and so ...
During that time, Buu was also asleep, so there was no chance for Beerus to meet Buu during that time.
How was Sayaka able to join Madoka in the Law of Cycles after her death? Adding onto this question, right after Madoka recreated the entire universe to accommodate with the Law of Cycles, why was everybody placed back in time right after the event where Sayaka gets killed in battle? Why were they placed specifically th...
It was placed right after Sayaka's death since Sayaka wanted to join Madoka in the Law of Cycles, so she joined Madoka after her death.
How do Soul Gems get corrupted over time in Madoka Magica? After seeing how Madoka instantly transformed into her witch form after killing Walpurgisnacht in one shot in the 4th timeline, it makes me wondering: How do Soul Gems become corrupted? I assumed that over time the magical girls would lose hope and fall into ...
Soul Gems gets corrupted after its owner uses their magical powers.
Can an Uchiha master Sage Mode? If a child whose father is Uchiha and mother is Senju is born, will this child awaken the Rinnegan? Will they be able to use Sage Mode because Senju have strong chakra to harness Sage Mode? <Q> Well.. In order to awaken the Rinnegan, you need to have Ashura's and Indra's chakra. <A> The ...
Having Uchiha and Senju DNA won't necessarily activate the Rinnegan unless those Uchiha and Senju are reincarnated Ashura and Indra.
In Attack on Titan, how did the river barge escape Shiganshina in episode 2? In episode 2 of the anime, the characters start off in the Shiganshina district. When and how did they get inside wall Maria? It shows them on a river barge with other refugees, but I do not think that explains it. Is there a gate on the ri...
They simply ran through the open gates of Wall Maria and then to the boat.
How is Goku able to survive in Space? In Dragon Ball Super episode 13 after loosing the Super Saiyan God power, how is Goku able to breathe and survive in space. As we all know that Saiyans can't breathe in Space then how is he able to continue fighting with Beerus in Space in SSJ2 form? <Q> This is just speculation b...
The most likely answer is that it is simply a retcon, Akira Toriyama is known to have a bad memory when it comes to the Dragon Ball universe
Why did Luffy react to Nami's body, but not to Hancock's? When Luffy saw Nami's naked body thanks to Mr. 2 and later in chapter 213 due to her happiness punch , he reacted and got excited. But on the other hand, when Luffy saw Boa Hancock naked it did not affect him in any way. Why was Luffy affected by Nami's body, b...
I'd say it a combination of Amazement at #2s power, Shock at seeing his friend in such a way, and
Roronoa Zoro's sense of climate/aura/motion and other observation capabilities It's not a luck or co-incidence, of all people Zoro sensed first that their Ship isn't moving (when they entered Calm belt for the first time) In episode 385 he sensed (along with Nami) change in climate before Serpent Currents emerged. Th...
I think it's a case of Zoro always being cautious and alert much like a Samurai as opposed to him subconsciously using haki.
What happened to the second kira? After Light and Misa were cleared, everyone seemed to just forget about that there's more than one kira. What was up with that? I seem to recall Light instructed Misa to make a response to the task force's kira video, then L deduced that the two kiras have met, then Light and Misa were...
I don't think they forgot about the Second Kira, at least not entirely.
In Soul Eater, does Soul ever become a death scythe? If so, which episode? I have heard rumors he only becomes a death scythe in the manga but it is still unclear. Has it just not happened yet in the anime? <Q> No, in the anime of soul eater <S> a death scythe is more of a conceptual goal than a visible state of progre...
So I don't think Soul ever became a death scythe in the anime. Soul becomes death scythe after some time after the events of the Baba Yaga castle by killing a witch.
Why does Vegeta tolerate Android 18? Probably a stupid question but... I was watching Resurrection 'F' and when 18 appeared on screen this question popped into my head. During the Android saga he was pretty much curb stomped by 18 right? (Memories are a little clouded) And Vegeta being as prideful as he is would he re...
After fighting much more powerful enemy (which also humilated him), I think Vegeta no longer feels as he has something to demonstrate crushing 18. He also has realized that there is nothing going to be achieved by revenge, so he doesn't seek revenge anymore. Probably because Vegeta only aim is to get stronger than Goku...
What's the difference between Sky Walk and Geppo? Is the technique Sanji learnt during the timeskip different from the one CP9 members and other Rokushiki users performed to stay in the air? If yes, what's the difference? If no, why did it take so much time for someone so talented at fighting with legs to learn it? <Q>...
Geppo translates to 'moon walk'.
What is Hayama Akira's ethnicity supposed to be? Judging from the flashback in episode 23, where Shiomi Jun meets a young Hayama in a spice market somewhere, I get the sense that Hayama was probably not born in Japan.

Sanji's fighting style is using his leg and his epithet is also called Kuroashi no Sanji / Black Leg Sanji.He learnt this style of fighting from Aka-Ashi no Zeff / Red-Leg Zeff. As far as I remember, Okamas also use (at least) their legs to fi...

Is there a reason for the notches on the blades? In Attack on Titan, the blades used with the 3D Manuever Gear have notches in them similar to those found on craft knives: Certain knives like the one above come with snap-off points so that when the blade dulls, it can be removed and replaced by a fresh and sharp pie...
The notches make sense since the blades break so often Making the most out of the metal available also made sense.
Why did Hiruzen Sarutobi become the third Hokage again? Hiruzen Sarutobi is the third Hokage, while Minato is the fourth Hokage. After the death of Minato, Hiruzen becomes Hokage again and he is still called the third. But why still the third? Why isn't Hiruzen called the fifth then? And why didn't they choose a new ...
.Hiruzen knew that if the other nations sense any weakness in the leadership of the village it could easily have led to another invasion.
Why is the Monokuma's eye in the school crest? Hope's Peak Academy's crest looks like this: In the center is a fountain pen and what looks to be a Monokuma's eye: But the school was established before Monokumas were created if I'm not mistaken. Before any of the games take place, Hope's Peak was a small-scale fac...
A logical explanation is that the mastermind used part of the crest on Monokuma. The eye isn't a part of the crest.
Why does Mikoto's Sword of Damocles break every time he uses it? Why does Mikoto's Sword of Damocles break every time he uses it? <Q> The Sword of Damocles is the direct manifestation of the Kings' powers and their state as a King. <S> If they were to lose control of their powers due to personal emotions like Mikoto'...
His Sword of Damocles crumbles also because of his personal emotions, like his anger when Tatara Totsuka was murdered.
Why are there new airbenders in Avatar? In the spin-off of Avatar: The Last Airbender , Avatar: The Legend of Korra , we learn in the second season that the bending is a gift from the Lion-turtles. However, during season 3, there are new airbenders due to Harmonic Convergence. Why then there are not new water/fire/...
There was a natural rebalancing that occurred as a result of harmonic convergence which led to an awakening for air benders only.
What does Tanaka do? What exactly is Tanaka's function in the Phantomhive family? To my understanding from watching season 1 and 2 of the anime, the manga (up to the Phantomhive murders arc) and the OVAs, it seems like he was Vincent's head butler back when he was the head of the house. But since Ciel has come into po...
Before Sebastian came, Tanaka was the head butler to Vincent. He knows about the many secrets residing in the Phantomhive manor and so perhaps that's why he still remains in the Phantomhive manor as the Butler.
The Fastest Ninja in Naruto? Namikaze Minato and the Fourth Raikage are considered to be the fastest moving ninjas. However, in a fight between the Raikage and Naruto, Naruto dodges the Raikage's full speed. In terms of speed, did Naruto surpass Minato? <Q> Technically, Minato Namikaze is still titled as the fastes...
Alive, I believe the Raikage is the fastest ninja, because Naruto is very fast while dependent on the Nine-Tails' chakra. If the dead counts, I believe it's Minato Namikaze.
Are there ever any animals featured that aren't Pokémon? Out of the Pokémon episodes that I have seen, I do not remember ever seeing an animal that wasn't a Pokémon.

What did Yuji do to his sister Kazuki? In Grisaia no Rakuen (Paradise) , after saving Yuji and retrieving the real body of Thanatos (Kazuki actually), there was a scene (aboard the ship Mihama Academy) when Yuji got pissed or irritated due to Kazuki's "bossy" attitude. Yuji yelled "Kazuki!" and then he dragged her to ...
Considering the complete and total loss of his family before either him or Kazuki were at an age where someone had explained the nuances of sex, it is entirely likely neither of them realize that them having intercourse is actually wrong. Considering the eroge it's based on, it is very likely that they had sex.
How does the Devil Fruit user know how to activate their power? For some Paramecia type, to use their power, they must do something with parts of their body. Just like how Bartholomew must cross his finger to create a barrier, or Foxy must stick his thumb, middle, and ring finger together to create Noro Noro beam. Bu...

What was that giant shadow with the glowing red eyes at the end of the Thriller Bark arc? At the end of the Thriller Bark Chapter 490 in manga and episode 381 in anime. I noticed strange giant shadows with glowing red eyes at the background. What could it be? Check this image in manga: In Anime: <Q> As stated in t...
It is so large that it completely dwarfs Thriller Bark, the world's largest pirate ship, in sheer size, possibly making it the world's biggest creature to appear in the series thus far.
Why does Nora's darkness/corruption not affect Yato (or any other God that has named her, for that matter)? Disclaimer: I've only watched the anime. When Yato gave Yukine a name, he immediately started suffering from all his "sins" and eventually an Ablution had to be performed to save both's lives. Then why is it th...
Because if not, the father will have more ways of hurting others (not Yato as he already released her), by manipulating Nora into thinking she did something remorseful, in turn blighting all of her masters.
Why didn't Frieza know about Goku and Kid Buu's fight? In Dragon Ball Z , when Goku was fighting Kid Buu, there were many enemies watching him from Hell. From DBZ Wikia article on Hell : In the Kid Buu Saga, during the fight with Kid Buu, the ogres are seen watching the fight alongside Cell, Frieza, King Cold, Re...

Why don't anime seasons have a standard amount of episodes? Anime seasons are generally 12/13 episodes long. There are quite a number of exceptions though, where more or fewer episodes are fitted into the same timeslots. Most notably, however, a season can have 11,12 or 13 episodes a season. I've seen this discrepanc...
Anime TV scheduling is competitive, as is a number of things in the anime production world. The typical reasons I've seen given are: shows don't all start on the same day or even the same week
What do these lines mean in manga? They are always seen when in an action sequence. Why do mangakas draw these kinds of lines and what do they mean? <Q> The term you're looking for is (generically) "speed lines". <S> Unsurprisingly, they are typically as a visual indicator that something is speedy. <S> The terminolo...
The left drawing looks like it is showing something happening at speed, for example if you were to put a character there in front of those horizontal lines, you'd get the impression that that character is moving at speed, e.g. like running.
Why did Orochimaru go for Sasuke instead of Naruto? During the second test of the Chunin exams, Orochimaru goes for Sasuke and even gives him power. But why does he avoid cursing Naruto like he did to Sasuke? Wasn't Naruto as powerful as Sasuke? Or was he too powerful to be controlled? Also, why does he use the Five E...
The main reason why Orochimaru wanted Sasuke rather than Naruto, was Itachi Uchiha. Sasuke had no loyalty to the village and the only thing holding him back was somewhat friend Naruto.
Are there more Titan Shifters unknown as of now? These two pictures are taken from Attack on Titan Chapter 77 : In the first picture, the Beast Titan says: '...the coordinate from here '. Does this mean there are other colonies with people like those from the Reiss family who can control titans? In the...
So, as of now, I shall say that there isn't any other titan shifter shown/mentioned in the manga, other than those mentioned in the list.
Can the Naruto manga be ordered in India? Can we order the Naruto manga in India? I am a big fan of Naruto but Animax stopped it. I am watching the series on YouTube, but I also want to read the manga. <Q> One site you can use is Amazon. <S> In , although I'm not sure of the range of Naruto volumes they seem to ha...
Naruto volumes are also available at a few (offline) bookstores, but this is mostly limited to the major Indian cities.
What are these type of eyes called (see red hair girl on the left in image)? I'm referring to characters whose eyes are constantly like that (Red hair girl in the picture) and don't change for a brief moment as a depiction of disappointment, most of these characters talk really slow and quietly. Examples include Tooru ...
" Hanmoku " (半目, half[-closed] eyes) is drawn the same way or similarly to " jitome " (ジト目, staring eyes) , but is not identical in intent. In the particular example you used I'd say it's being used to show mild disbelief and/or disinterest.
In what episode of the anime does Natsu become a demon? Just like the title says: in what episode of the anime does Natsu become a demon (E.N.D)? I was wondering if that even happened in the anime or only in the manga? <Q> The current Anime Episode is shortly after the Tartaros Arc. <S> Right now it is unknown to Nat...
Put simple, Natsu has not become a demon yet in any form of media. In the manga Natsu turns into his demon form in chapter 500 and it is revealed that he is E.N.D after his older brother(Zeref) reveals his full name: Etherious Natsu Dragneel at the end of the Tartaros arc.
How much older are Obito and Rin than Kakashi? I've been doing a lot of research on this topic, but I have found little clues. People say that Obito and Rin are about 4 years older than Kakashi, but I don't think that's true. People keep saying that it's proven in the manga and the show, but as far as I know that is n...
Kakashi became a genin at 5 while Obito and Rin were 9 meaning they were 4 years older than him when they all graduated the academy. In episode 385 of Naruto Shippuden , Obito clearly mentioned "but he is the same age as we are" (from the past memories). Anyway, it's not said exactly how old they are, but judging by th...
Are half-blooded Saiyans stronger than pure-blooded Saiyans? I'm wondering if half-blooded Saiyans are stronger than pure-blooded Super Saiyans? Like how half-blooded vampires are stronger than pure-blooded vampires. <Q> According to Wikia <S> The offspring generally possesses the strength of the Saiyans and develop...
In the series, either Goku, Gohan or Future Trunks said that half-blooded Saiyans can transform into Super Saiyan earlier than pure-blooded Saiyans because they possess the Earthling's rich emotions and feelings .
Can Saitama breathe in space? I'm just wondering whether Saitama could live in space, just like Superman or Goku, without needing oxygen to breathe? <Q> No, he can not breathe in space. <S> In the chapter 47 (35.2), Boros punches Saitama so hard that he is sent flying towards the moon. <S> When he lands there, he doe...
Saitama can't die from space.
Why did the Phantom Troupe let Gon and Killua go? In the very first episode of the Greed Island arc, Gon and Killua meet up with two of the Phantom Troupe members while in the auction. The members say they will no longer hunt our heroes because... something to do with their leader's Nen surviving after death? I watche...
They all know most of them will die, and to provoke a confrontation without their Leader is out of the question. If the person who placed a Nen dies, his Nen becomes much stronger after death, and a much more powerful Nen exorcist would be required in order to remove it. It's suggested that they they happened to like t...
Why didn't the Dragon slayers disappear when the eclipse gate was destroyed? During the Grand magic games, they were not able to actually defeat all the dragons that came out of Eclipse gate. The dragons as well as future Rouge and Lucy just disappeared and went back to their own timeline when the Eclipse gate was dest...
Second : Evil Rogue and his dragons disappeared, because the gate that he used in the future to come back to the present was destroyed in the present , therefore he won't be able to use it to come back to the present, therefore he wouldn't be able to bring the dragons from the past.
Why are crosses so popular in anime and manga? I've recently noticed that I see a lot of "Crosses" in manga and anime. I thought it was just because Japan has a lot of Christians as I remember my history teacher telling me how Japanese people once really liked the Bible when Europeans came to explore, until the Shogun ...
So it may not be that the cross means something different in Japan (most weddings take place in a Christian church, I believe ), but that because it has an air of the exotic or mysterious.
Are any animation studios open to the public for tours? There are lots of anime fans all over the world, and Japan does promote the industry to boost tourism. However, I am unaware of any animation studios that allow visitors. I'm sure a lot of visitors would like to peek inside and see what it is like - perhaps no...
The Studio Ghibli museum in Tokyo is open to public tour, for me and
How many Naruto Shippuden dubbed episodes are there? I am watching Naruto and I am currently on episode 164. How many episodes of Shippuden do they have dubbed, and are they still dubbing it? <Q> Also, the Naruto Shippuden Wikipedia has a list of the completed English dubbed episodes ending at episode 322. <S> Episod...
Season 25 of Naruto Shippuden was released in January 2016 according to Viz Media's release calendar . For region 4 (Australia/New Zealand), all 500 episodes have been released since August 7, 2019 .
Why didn't Kakashi take care of Naruto? During the flashback some people have and or Kakashi, we find out that Namikaze Minato, Naruto's dad, was Kakashi's teacher, and that Kakashi had a big respect for him. Also, Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin were his teammates. We also find out that in one of the flashbacks Kakashi ha...
Naruto was being neglected by the entire village And as per his past, he wouldn't want to get attached to anyone and wanted to be only an Anbu. But the set up was just too unrealistic.
How many characters are based on real life pirates? Throughout the One Piece series, several pirates seem to be based upon real life pirates. Some of which are quite obvious Like Blackbeard & Whitebeard. These names combined would be the real name of Blackbeard, Edward Teach . And some are a bit less obvious, but ...
Jewelry Bonney, the Bonney Pirates captain is based on the pirate Anne Bonny Often times when I need a new name I google a real life person who has a certain trait or characteristic connected with the fictional character (successful businessman, explorer, murderer, general, pacifist, poet, you name it) and then just ed...
Is the Golden Den Den Mushi mechanical, or a living specimen? The Golden Den Den Mushi is used for ordering the Buster Call and seems to be made of rigid gold. It's strange and unusual for the rest of the species. Is it an actual living being, or (unlike regular Den Den Mushis) some kind of mechanically improved, or p...
The gold Den Den Mushi is a rare kind of Den Den Mushi.
Why does One Piece antagonist disappear after being defeated? Let me take an instance of one villain: Arlong. Arlong got defeated by Luffy, he wasn't killed. Luffy didn't stay in Kokoyashi village either. So Arlong could have returned to his usual business of enslaving the village. He would have faced ugly humiliating ...
it might be because, if pirate defeat another one usually that village will be under control of the winner, for example white beard had alot of villages under his control and no body ever touch them, because other pirates knows that if any thing happened in that village, it will cause them a lot of troubles with white ...
Has Kaido eaten a devil fruit? If so, what is its power? Kaido is called the strongest creature in the One Piece world. Hence, he must be immensely powerful. My question is: What is his power? Is he a devil fruit user? <Q> SPOILERS AHEAD <S> It has been confirmed in Chapter 921 of One Piece , that Kaido has a Zoan...
His Devil Fruit lets him change into a huge Dragon Reference: Perhaps the greatest sign of Kaido's strength is his apparent inability to die.
How does Vanishing Rasengan work? Vanishing Rasengan is a miniature Rasengan which was originally developed by Boruto as seen in Boruto: Naruto the Movie. In that movie, when Boruto was trying to learn Rasengan in front of Sasuke, it was observed that his Rasengan usually vanishes into the air but the effect of Rasenga...
About your question how Boruto was able to vanish the Rasengan, I think because it's so small, slowly vanishing while thrown but still hits the target because his Wind Release nature.
Will Boruto be able to awaken Byakugan? As Himawari was able to awaken Byakugan, is it possible that Boruto will also be able to use it? I am in doubt because, if we take the Uchiha family as an example, then every member of their family has the ability to use Sharingan. I would guess this also applies to the Byakuga...
The eye that Boruto has is clearly not a Byakugan, and everyone can agree, what I find it most likely is a new Dojutsu, no one from the Byakugan family ever married someone with as much chakra as Naruto has, unless you count the grand-son of Kaguya (the dude inside the moon) which already had the Byakugan with an extre...
How can Naruto breathe on the moon? In The Last: Naruto the Movie , Naruto's fight with Toneri is set on the moon. But how can he breathe on the moon? Is that because of some technique, or something else? <Q> In short According to wiki: The exterior of the Moon is barren, covered with craters and canyons. <S> It ...
Theoretically, it's possible that the moon has an atmosphere by capturing part of their Earth's atmosphere in the creation of the moon, being attracted to it via the intense gravity/immense power of the Sage's and Hamura's joint Chibaku Tensei.
Can Boruto awaken Tenseigan? I heard that Tenseigan can be awakened by those having both Otsutsuki and Hyuga blood lines. Boruto has Otsutsuki blood from Naruto (A descendant of Hagaromo Otsutsuki) and Hyuga blood from his mother. Can he awaken the Tenseigan? <Q> At the moment it is possible, due to the Uzamaki clan be...
Let me explain why I said this: The combination of the Byakugan and the chakra of an Ōtsutsuki clan member can evolve the Byakugan into the Tenseigan. Since Boruto has no Byakugan so we can say that he won't be able to have Tenseigan.
What are the other Animal Guides? When Aang was in the Spirit World during the Winter Solstice he refereed to Roku's Dragon as Roku's Animal Guide like how Appa is to him. I am wondering what are the Animal Guides for the other Avatars? do each Elemental Tribe have a single animal (ie. Air Avatars have Sky Bisons, Fir...
While the earth kingdom avatars are never seen with an animal, if the other three avatar animal guides we've seen are indicative of their respective elements' animal guides then it would be: Dragons for Fire Avatars Air Bison for Air Avatars Polar Bear Dogs for Water Avatars.
Who woke up Kirito in episode 9? In Sword Art Online (season 1) episode 9, at about 16:00, someone with blue hair woke up Kirito. When he regains consciousness, it was Asuna. But she doesn't have blue hair! Here are some pictures. This was just before he woke up: Then: What's going on here? <Q> That would be Sa...
I believe it may have been Suguha over Sachi.
What is the order of the JoJo anime series? My friend recommended me to watch JoJo's Bizzare Adventure , but when I googled it I found there are many series. What is the order of the anime? <Q> In the order of the events in the series it goes like this: JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken <S> (TV) <S> (This covers the Battl...
The order of the series is: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Phantom Blood
How did Satoru obtain the Revival ability? Satoru Fujinuma has the "Revival" ability, which allows him to go back in time before a life-threatening incident happens. We do know that he is not able to control this power (even if he can somehow help to summon it sometimes), but do we learn at any point how he obtained it...
It could be that Satoru suffers from dissociative identity disorder and his intuition was acting as 'Revival' Satoru the entire time.
What happens if Uzumaki and Uchiha married each other? Will their offspring have Rinnegan? Ok, I'm wondering .If Uchiha and Uzumaki have a child together, there are possibility that the child inherited Sharingan right?Since Uzumaki have ties with Senju then, can the child awaken Rinnegan? <Q> No, just an average/genera...
Since both Uchihas and Uzumakis have the potential to inherit the Chakra from Indra and Asura, it MAY be possible for an offspring to inherit Rinnegan naturally.
How many tails did Naruto get during his fight with Pain? During Pain's destruction of Konoha, he fought Naruto. When fighting Naruto, Pain hurt Hinata which made Naruto get mad. After a couple of seconds of being mad Naruto started to transform into Kyuubi. How many tails did he transform to? I've heard and seen peop...
So, yes, Naruto has gone onto nine tails (He in fact wanted to remove the seal), but we do not see it, and Minato stops it very quickly.
What is Itachi's illness? What was Itachi's mysterious illness? Do you think Tsunade could have cured it? I'm aware that it is a terminal illness.And when did Itachi get this illness? <Q> The disease is never named. <S> This is actually quite common in manga/anime. <S> In some cases, the disease may be implied, such ...
It's often said that a character has some disease without the name of the disease ever being stated.
Is Genos really a cyborg? So Genos has been a "cyborg" since he got that surgery. But is he really a cyborg? To me, a cyborg is a human with robot parts attached to their body, but I have seen no human part in him. His face doesn't count since it has mechanical parts. So is he a cyborg or not? Does he just say he's a...
I Agree with Karkoh51 's Answer that Geno's "has an entirely mechanical body" and his CodeName as "Demon Cyborg" sounds better than "Demon Robot" He's a cyborg, because in episode 5 he eats food with Saitama, and after eating he says he has to "digest the food".
When an Uchiha member is going to get married with another Uchiha member, are they marrying their cousin? Like my question is asking, are they marrying their own cousin? I'm wondering this because I remember Obito telling Naruto that Sasuke was his relative in volume 71 chapter 683: I Dreamt the Same Dream. I also reme...
Pretty much all Uchiha except for the women that marry into the clan are related.
