>blind sighted
It's blind-sided, because it's an attack on the side you're blind to.

>>42591737
Damn it, stupid autocorrect, knew it'd get something wrong...

Hm.

Well. At least Maple and Acer didn't have Raichi in their head like Magil and Towa.

Wonder if we can block her out or teach Magil himself? Magilanons must be Towa fans.

>>42591897
Magil is going into the sun like the rest of the Artificial Demons we'll face.

>>42591897
If we constantly read his mind, towa will either shut up to him, or reveal her plans anyways.

>>42591921
Now anon, Magil hasn't been as annoying as Lucifer.
Don't punish him because his predecessor is a moron.

>>42591947
INTO THE SUN!

But in all seriousness I don't really like the guy, even from a rival standpoint. I also don't want to play the whole 'redeem every antagonist!' game. Some sure, but not all.

>>42592018
I'm not saying we're not gonna kill him, but the sun is reserved for Ol' Luci.

>>42592046
Fair enough, but the sun is a useful tool for disposing of regenerating enemies.

>>42592018
I agree. I actually like the thought of Piccolo staying as an antagonist for a while, or possibly not even being fully "redeemed" at all. That's one of the things I liked about World's Strongest and Dead Zone: Piccolo was still a villain, of sorts, even if he was technically helping out. It made those movies feel more like an extension of Dragon Ball than strictly part of Z, and I liked that. I think Magil being given the same treatment, or just being killed off without being redeemed, would probably work better than making him an ally. Like you said, we don't need to redeem everyone.

>>42592018
Him and Piccolo seem like they'd be cool friends, and they can train under Beelzabub trying to take his throne but Beels instead makes them official demon knights.

>>42592066
Volcanoes could work as well, and they are closer.

>>42592071
I would like to put some feelers toward redeeming Piccolo, if only because I see some parallels with him and the Mahogany twins.
Doesn't have to be immediate, but I would like to see it happen.

>>42592084
Sun is easy access as long as its out where we are fighting. Just gotta blast em up there.

>>42592071
Piccolo I can see easily becoming an ally, even more so than canon just due to Maple's demeanor with him now and their similar pasts.

Magil though...not seeing it. Specially with that bitch Towa always being around.

>>42592127
We're totally redeeming Piccolo, So we can teach him to DODE and DRIVE!

>>42592127
>>42592149
Oh, sure, I'm not entirely opposed to him eventually joining the good guys. And you guys are totally right that he'd be a good fit, considering our past. I just have a soft spot for evil Piccolo, and I hope to see him stay like that a while longer than in canon.

>>42592150
We already learned how to hoverbike from Launch all those years ago. We should make one sometime for us.

>>42592169
Totally feel you.

You take the number on the top and... lucky number 7! You show it off to your friends with a cheeky grin. You skip back and let the next person come up. Goku. And he's... number 1, this time. Interesting. He steps next to you and smiles. "Look forward to fighting you, but guess we're not going to have our match as the Tournament finale again, huh?"

You smile and nod... then realize what he just said. Huh. Goku's actually remembered that, has he? Or did he actually think ahead. A voice interrupts. "Hey, you better watch yourself out there." Chi-chi tells him, presenting a "2" to you both. "I might be the one facing Maple again."

That gets Goku even more fired up. Hell, it gets you fired up as well. One by one, people go down the list, until finally everyone's gotten their numbers picked. The Announcer guy turns to you all and declares:

>>42592274
"First match will be Sun- er, Son Goku vs. Chi-chi!" The Announcer guy does a little fist pump at getting Goku's name right again.

"Second match will be the mysterious Magil against the lovely Launch!"

"The third match is Ginger facing off against Tien Shinhan!"

"The fourth match is our Champion, Maple Mahogany against Majunior! ...that's a lot of 'm' names."

You and Piccolo turn to each other. While you can almost feel Goku wanting to kick himself that you get to face off against Piccolo first, you know that this is going to be serious. You turn your attention back to the Announcer guy.

"The fifth match is between returning competitors Giran and Pamput!"

"The sixth match has Sky Dragon facing newcomer Chuu Lee!"

"The seventh match is the notorious Tao Pai Pai against Yajirobe!"

"And the last match will see Garlic Jr. vs. Shen Hiro!"

With everything set up, excitement fills the air. You can hear the cheering crowds outside. "If you all would like a view of the match, there are benches outside, and areas upstairs with great views of the arena and the viewscreen.

>A. Head outside
>B. Check out upstairs
>C. Wait, what viewscreen?

Kami yes

>>42592524
Its okay, if anyone tries reverse mafuba we'll TK the cork back on the bottle, or just knock it away.

I love how we've got so many more villains running around now than there were in canon, and yet every single one of them, regardless of their motivations of overarching plans, woke up that morning and said "You know what I'm going to do today? Crash a tournament because that's going to make Maple sad."

I'm not being sarcastic. I really do love that. We have a great rogue's gallery.

>>42592603
Jokes on them, we enjoy getting a chance to beat them silly.

>>42592634
It's that patented Mahogany double-bluff. Works every time.

>>42592603
Actually, no, I know what I love most about this setup: We've got enough villains who are still alive that they now have the opportunity to get really salty about us, and then gripe to each other about us. Imagine Garlic Jr. and Magil having tea together and being like "Oh god, don't even get me STARTED on that Maple girl. She's totally cramping my style."

Hmm all the really big fighters are all in the same finalist bracket. Not to say the other bracket are slouches but you know...comparatively.

>>42592742
Why do I have a feeling we might face Tao if we reach the final.

>>42592815
What if we fought Chuu Lee? That'd be something.

>>42592833
Don't see her getting past Tao or Yajirobe.

>>42592861
I don't remember how strong either of those two are nowadays.

Chuu Lee has magic and 4k+ PL, but you're probably right about those two being stronger.

>>42592897

Surprised her cousin did not show up either. Maybe did not make it out of prelims.

Now I am looking forward to Great Ape Nappa vs Godzilla in Saiyan Saga.

>>42592897
Yajirobe has the 100% technique too. We saw it in Mifan.

"Wait, viewscreen? What viewscreen?" you question.

"Something new added during construction, Capsule Corp. paid for it all. Pretty ingenious, actually." the blonde man tells you.

You walk over to your friends. "Gods, I wish I could fight both of you guys. Whoever loses had better promise to have a match with me sometime soon! Good luck, you guys."

"The way you say that almost sounds like you'll be facing the victor." Piccolo's voice states in a haughty tone. "I'll make sure you don't."

Goku and Chi-chi glare at him, but you decide to do something better. "I look forward to our match as well, Piccolo."

He really does not know how to take you being so friendly towards him. He grunts angrily and walks off. After letting Tien and that... Shen person know to be careful around Garlic Jr. and his cohorts, the Announcer guy calls Goku and Chi-chi to the tournament grounds. You decide to head out as well, and... wow. The arena looks impressive, to say the least. Chuu Lee seems a bit proud of the look you're giving it. Above it is a floating viewscreen, a box with four large monitors on each side. The stands, large, raised, and accommodating, have a clear view of the area itself and the viewscreen. It's incredibly impressive. You also spot some people at the corners of the place, dressed in outfits like... King Chappa's students. Hey! So that's what he meant. Piccolo seems to go up to the roof, while Launch and Tien take the room upstairs with some other fighters.

Goku and Chi-chi face each other, almost bursting with confidence. The Announcer guy addresses the crowds. "LADIED AND GENTLEMEN! Thank you all for your patience! The 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament finals will now begin! Son Goku against Chi-chi! Both of these fighters are from the illustrious Turtle School, from the world-famous Master Roshi. And now, without further interruption... fighters ready? BEGIN!"

>A. Cheer on Goku!
>B. Cheer on Chi-chi!
>C. Cheer them both on!
>D. Something else?

>>42592929
And now I'm wondering... Kato, just how big is Godzilla?

>>42592970
>>C. Cheer them both on!

>>42592738
And here I was in the early threads worried that we'd be too overpowered.

I just wonder what ace Kato gave Vegeta to pull out of his sleeve

Yajiswole is indeed stronger than your student. All I'll say on that.

>>42592973
10 meters, though his height can vary. Full height is actually 100 meters.

>>42592999
Oh you'll see...

>>42592999
I dunno, the Saiyans should be static since they aren't effected by Earth's events.

That said fighting a skilled 18k without Goku will be kinda tough. Sorta. Maybe not. Since we are about to fight Piccolo at 16k solo.

Don't mind this.

>>42593107
I'm super hyped for Nappa and Vegeta now.

Especially if both of them survive and then stay villains. We could use a quest where Vegeta doesn't join the good guys but still stays relevant.

>>42593115
Speaking of Piccolo, hold nothing back, right? We go in as hard as we can, as fast as we can, and treat him as seriously as we can.

>>42593193
I liked ghostgeta, though it seems hes done for good

>>42593206
Most definitely. He'll be doing the same.

>>42593107
I saw that tiny godzilla picture you posted earlier and I got the idea that the animators draw Godzilla at a different height for every shot. You'll see him as larger than a building from a skyline establishing shot and then for the fight with Maple he's maybe one and a half times the size of a man and then sometimes they really don't give a shit and he's the size of a cat and standing on a table or something.

>>42593206
Bait a charge and Solar Flare then "Samma Vacca" him, since we can still sense Demonic Ki?

>>42593257
One option. I was thinking Raio-ken with and attacking with a Stunning Izumi Combo. Then during the stun Samma Vaca him.

>>42593107
>Godzilla rises up to full height to face Great Ape Nappa
>attempts to step on him

We should ask Krillin for tips on fighting Majunior.

You smile wide and shout at your friends. "Come on, Goku! Come on, Chi-chi! Do your best!"

The Saiyan and human dash at each other, locking fists and sending out a little shockwave. They keep at it, testing each other a bit, but then start putting everything they have into their fight. It... almost reminds you of Goku's match against Krillin, last Tournament. They're fairly close, Goku a bit stronger and faster, but Chi-chi clearly not letting up, fighting ferociously. She's also fighting fairly strategically, utilizing the Spirit Bits almost as well as you can, giving Goku a run for his money. Still... Goku's clearly a far, far better fighter than he was before. He's able to just manage to dodge out of the way of some of her stronger attacks, and manages to land a few solid hits of his own against her.

Soon they decide to kick it up a notch, the both of them utilizing the Kaio-ken, and Chi-chi actually managing to use the Samma Sankappa to boost her defense, allowing her to take hits far better than Goku expects her to. The two of them go for one final strike against each other, pouring everything they have into two Kamehamehas. The beams collide in the middle of the ring, and for a moment... Chi-chi actually has the upper hand. However... Goku has way more energy left to give. He overpowers her, and sends Chi-chi out of bounds. The force of the blast leaves an explosion that almost sends shockwaves towards the crowds... but they're stopped by King Chappa's students. All of them actually seem to be forming barriers to protect the audience. Handy.

Goku helps Chi-chi up after being declared the winner. The two nod respectfully and head back, both of them approaching you and your student first.

>A. Nice try, Chi-chi, you were great out there
>B. Awesome job, Goku! I'll be looking forward to seeing you soon

All of the above.

>>42593654

You tap fists with Chi-chi first. "Nice job. You were great out there! Seriously, kinda wish you'd have won, it would've been a great match with how well you fought."

She smiles a little bashfully. "Thanks, Maple. Guess we'll have to wait a while before our real rematch."

You chuckle, but turn to Goku and put on a cockier smile. "Yeah. Monkey boy owes me one first." you tell him with a bit of a playful but confident wink.

"Looking forward to it, Maple." Goku responds, flashing a thumb's up.

"Hah, you're gonna have to get past me, kid." Launch tells him as she walks out, cracking her knuckles. "I might be the one facing Maple, if Tien doesn't win against her first."

All of you laugh, but stop when Magil floats by, not even bothering to acknowledge you all. Launch clenches her fists, as does Chi-chi, and even you and Goku find yourselves doing the same. "...going to have to get rid of him first, though."

"Be careful, he doesn't seem like the type to hold back." Goku warns.

"He isn't." Chi-chi confirms.

Launch takes a step forward. "I'll get him back for that. We both will."

"Good luck, Launch."

"Not letting you down, kiddo." she tells you with a confident smirk.

You nod at her, then decide you need to check something out. You and your student locate King Chappa, thankfully watching the match from the sidelines, and more importantly keeping an eye on his students. "Hey, King Chappa, sir, how are they putting up a barrier like that?"

Rather pleased with himself, he responds, "We've learned much about our handling of Ki. I decided that it would be a good exercise for them to learn more about defending than merely attacking, and this is great practice for them. Each one is projecting a barrier of Ki to protect the audience."

"Yeah, I remember them saying something like that. That's... a lot like your technique then, right Master?" Chuu Lee asks. You nod at her, smiling wide. This... is actually really good news. It means fighters can give it their all in a place like this.

Next up, you head over to where Tien is. He greets you and your student with a nod, as you ask him, "Thoughts on this?"

"He's confident in his abilities, maybe overconfident given what you've been through before, but Launch..."

"KAIO-KEN TIMES THREE!"

"...is more than prepared." Tien finishes as your friend blitzes at Magil, taking him by surprise for a moment. She gets a few solid hits in, and with a shout of "Volleyball fist!" almost seems to toss her opponent around like a ragdoll. But what you see of his abilities... it's clear that even with the damage Launch is doing, it's not enough, not on her own. She backs up for a moment, taking to the air and firing off her Gatling Burst, but this time, Magil is able to take the attack head-on, almost casually flinging the energy blasts directed at him aside.

He then raises his hand in the air as Launch's Kaio-ken fades and fires a yellow beam at her. Launch defends... but it seems to not hurt her. Instead, you feel her Ki... simply plummet. Launch floats down to the ground, trying to figure out what just happened. A surprised noise above you seems to come from Piccolo, almost like he recognizes the technique. Launch prepares to defend herself, but Magil comes in and strikes her hard. She... goes down in pain, far more exhausted than she should be. She doesn't get up by the 10 count, and Magil simply leaves her once declared the winner. Launch slams her fists into the arena ground and slowly forces herself up.

You, Chuu Lee, and Tien head down, noticing Goku and the others consoling her.

Can we read piccolo's mind? I mean, I personally would do that the moment he shows recognition of it.

Chi-chi tends to Launch's wounds as you approach her. "You okay? Need a Senzu or anything?"

"I'll be fine. Chi-chi's got me covered." Launch tells you. She seems... disappointed in herself, but Tien places his hand on her shoulder and tells her she fought well. Launch's face goes a little red as she smiles wide at him.

"Anyone know what that technique was?" you ask aloud. And boy are you surprised when you hear the answer.

"Magic." says Piccolo. "A powerful technique that most demons couldn't even dream of using." The way he says it... almost seems like he's trying to hide a feeling of fear. Of doubt in himself.

"What kind of magic is it, then?" Chuu Lee asks, rubbing her head.

"It's called the MP Buster." Piccolo states. "You saw its effects right there." A forced smirk seems to be directed at you. "I can use it too."

"...but you can't do it as well, can you? That's why you were surprised, right?"

Piccolo's blood almost seems to boil as he hold back screaming at you. "Don't expect me to go easy on you just because I'm telling you this, Maple."

"Well, guess that confirms that Towa didn't slack off on him like she did Lucifer...." You cross your arms. "And... MP Buster? That's not exactly creative. Couldn't they come up with a better name for it? I mean, being Demons and all..."

"I didn't name it!" Piccolo shouts at you in frustration. "Besides, it's more of a description than an actual name. 'Names' may be changed for certain spells."

...true. Well then. "Any way to counter it? Or is as simple as d-"

"Dodging is the most effective way, yes." Piccolo finishes for you. "There are other methods. You'll have to figure them out on your own."

"Why are you telling us all this?" Goku asks, his tail swaying from side to side with a curious waggle.

Piccolo turns away and starts to fly back up. "...because I want to see that haughty blue bitch taken down a peg. Wrecking something she put so much effort into... I almost relish that thought."

"The next match will start shortly! Will Ginger and Tien Shinhan please step into the ring!"

Wonder who Kami is targeting. Majunior is small dice compared to the various real trouble makers here.

If Hero is kami of coarse.

You laugh heartily, confusing Piccolo. "You are speaking my language, Junior. That makes two of us that aren't big fans of hers. Well, more than two." you add at the end, to the simultaneous nodding of your friends. "Thanks for the information. You know I actually managed to slap her once?" Piccolo raises an eyebrow. "Really. Here..." Aaaand mental image sent.

The Namekian takes a moment to try and figure out if he really believes you. He... seems like he wants to, at least. "Just... don't disappoint me." Piccolo grunts as returns to his perch, Goku smiling at him, and the rest of your friends thoroughly confused.

Well, with that all settled... "Guys, I'm going to look around for a bit. Tien, good luck on your match and keep your guard up. Something fishy is going on here."

"I better see you next round, Maple." he says with a confident smirk.

"Mind if I go with?" Goku asks. Chuu Lee asks you the same question.

"Sure, sure. All right, let's find Trip first..."

The three of you head off, spotting Trip with a frustrated, troubled look on her face at the top of the stands. She notices you all approach. "I am surprised you kids are not watching the Tournament down with your other friends."

"There's something going on, Trip. We don't know what." Goku tells her. "But Towa is involved."

She sighs. "I... figured as much. But Kami won't tell me anything at the moment, and I know he's hiding something. He hasn't said a thing since the Tournament started."

You tilt your head at her. "Why not?"

"He keeps giving me this reply of 'busy, something important. Please trust me.'" She sighs in frustration. "I don't like this."

You yourself give it a try, looking to the Lookout to see if you can contact him there... and you get that same reply. The hell...? Goku and Chuu Lee seem concerned by your expression. Okay, time to try and sense this out yourself. You take a moment, trying to locate... something, anything out of the norm. And get nothing. Damn it all. Shocked gasps cascade through the audience, breaking what little focus you had.

"Th-that's against the Tournament rules! Ginger is disqualified due to usage of a weapo-!"

"SHUT UP!" the Makyan's voice bellows at the Announcer, Tien gripping his chest. There's... a wound there, thankfully not too deep, but the fact that he has one- ...you finally manage to sense Ginger's Power Level. It's over 8000, at least, and... rising. His muscle mass has increased substantially as well.

Tien lets go of his chest, eyes full of fury. "You... you maniac! Monster!"

"You do anything, and that friend of yours dies!" Ginger tells him with a malicious smirk.

"You leave Chiaotzu alone!"

...he's distracted with Tien. That means... all right, time for some mind-reading! You look at Ginger, and...

'Soon, Lord Garlic will have the Dragon Balls... hahaha, how gullible these humans are, and how weak they can be... and soon, immortality will be within his grasp...'

His power raises again, slightly. You try to spot it and... it's coming from a person. Okay, think fast, Maple... save Chiaotzu, stop this power-up. You take a deep breath, and... "RAIO-KEN!"

Ginger looks up, confused. You bolt from the stands and down to where Ginger is gaining his power-up from, and... it's another Makyan. Well, he wasn't expecting to see you here. Before he can even respond, you axe kick him into the air, telepathically instructing Goku and Chuu Lee to take care of him, then bolt to where you can feel Chiaotzu's energy. There he is... and above him is the other Makyan, the blue one, Nicky. He wasn't expecting you either, and seems to have a sword to your friend's throat. A quick few strikes to the gut knocks him out cold, and you grab Chiaotzu and bring him with you. You stop right at the entrance to the Tournament arena, letting Tien know his friend is safe.

The look on Ginger's face right now is almost priceless. Tien's Kaio-ken flares up as he kicks the Makyan to the sky, him crashing into the one Goku and Chuu Lee sent flying. They both fall down hard, to the combined relief of the crowds, and Tien. ...but before you all can celebrate, you notice Garlic Jr. approaching you. Along with... wait, isn't that that Shen guy?

"Forgive my overzealous comrades." the pale blue Makyan starts. "It would seem they've made a few... misjudgments." Garlic says with a smirk. "I will deal with them all... personally. Rest assured, they will not bother you all again during this Tournament."

Thanks for playing! Things will be heating up quite a bit, soon. And pieces will hopefully start falling into place fairly well.

Any other thoughts or comments before I start snoozing?

>>42596223
My only suggestion would be one i made earlier, regarding our current dice system and the ridiculous critfail chance when we have loads of foresight and other defensive techniques that ought to help us prevent the worst shit from happening.

>>42596326
If we use our Raioken, how many autographs will we be able to give to audience members?

>>42596337
What if successes got burned by 1s?

>>42596393
That's an interesting thought, but we dont work on a number of successes system. Five normal successful rolls is the same as one normal successful roll here.

>>42596291
I don't like jokes. I only like memes and references.

>>42596433
Like if you get one success, but a 1 is rolled, the action is a failure, and a critical failure if the 1's makes the number of successes negative. Could be a way to balance out our best of 5's and whatnot.

>>42596326
Q. Kato, why is /cgl/ so batshit insane compared to /u/?

>>42596453
I kinda like that, it doesn't sound half bad!
Instead of "pass with strings attached" we just have success or, if we dont have two or more successes, a failure

I can definitely get behind that.
Would ones consume twenties first? I always hate when our nice shit gets eaten, personally.

>>42596475
Twenties are the bomb, they're untouchable in this hypothetical dice roll system in my head.

>>42596460
Not Kato, but being in a small insulated community does to your personality what being trapped in a small box does to your muscles.
Some perspective is a wonderful thing.

>>42596535
Yes, but even in an isolated community, shouldn't people have some awareness of feelz != reality, and how you can't expect people to cater to your feelz >90% of the time, even if they are your friends?

>>42596578
No.

His hatred is turning into begrudging respect, and he's most confused as to why he's allowing that to happen.

>>42599337
I always have found it amusing that Garlic Jr. actually DID get immortality, and yet is so short-sighted that he keeps making so many major near fuck-ups. Dude is almost as lucky as you, and nowhere near as clever.

>>42600914
>His hatred is turning into begrudging respect, and he's most confused as to why he's allowing that to happen.

Pickles doesn't know that Maple isn't human does he?

>>42600914
How long does it take to cast Samma Sankappa? As long as charging and shooting a Geist Magnum or something?

>>42601041
He actually does. He knows you and your brother are Tuffles, and Goku is a Saiyan. He barely cares since he himself knows he's a Namekian, but he actually isn't as aware of his heritage as he'd like to be.

>>42601354
It's a bit quicker than that, actually. Thing is it doesn't last for all that long before needing to be reapplied, but long enough for it to make a tremendous difference if you manage to do it.

>>42601391
So best applied with use of Foresight then?

>>42601461
I thought Foresight was passive, but TK enhanced reflexes was not.

>>42601391
How long does a lightning stun last? Does it vary from person to person? How many actions do you think we can get away with while the opponent is stunned?

Like could we get away with Samma Sankappa, Samma Vaca, then Kaio-ken just as the stun wears off?

>>42601461
>>42601479
It can, and Foresight isn't completely passive. It... think of it more like sort of breathing. While normally you don't have to consciously control it, you can, and if you do it right it can work to your advantage significantly. "Conscious" attempts at Foresight is better than "Unconscious" ones. Think of it like... the difference between getting a flash of a picture coming at you (unconscious) and getting a short little few seconds of video and audio (conscious). At the same time, you can also end up focusing on things that are irrelevant to the situation at hand if you aren't careful.

It's the difference between ending up like Amuro and YOU CAN SEE THE FUTURE

>>42601517
It varies a bit depending on roll and opponent, but usually around a "round" or post, meaning you'd end up with a free attack or two in if successful.

You could get two of those three done with some ease, and possibly all three if you rolled high enough.

>>42601673
So would Samma Sankappa, Foresight (conscious), TK assisted reflexes, and Raio-ken+Kaio-ken all activated be a serious melee battle trance mode or something?

>>42601844
It'd work for a bit, but be fairly hard to keep up and potentially start straining reserves of Stamina if you do keep it up. Foes might try to turtle up if you kept such a thing going for too long and just wait for you to exhaust yourself. Still, it could work well in your favor if successful.

>>42602211
How many rounds would it take to get Denjin at full charge?

I know 'rounds' and updates vary in time due to whats going on at the time but guesstimate.

>>42602382
Depending on the roll, it can take between 1 and 2 posts to get to full charge. Stun, speed, and fighting smart help lower that too, though those factor into the roll as well.

>>42602524
Alright I think I have a good grasp on the 'speed' of our abilities now. Now just gotta hope the rolls are with us tomorrow. Something tells me it wont all go according to plan like we managed with Shura.

Really wanna combine lightning with wolf fang fist like Brobro did with his element.

>>42603773
I'm sad we didn't have enough time to lightning enchant Machinegun Fist before the tournament. Would have been helpful. Gotta find alternate ways to stun during a Raio-ken combo now.

>>42603817
Should make a list of all the hand to hand moves.
Figure out the best ones to enhance.

Betcha our lightning is the first thing Gero programs into 19 to absorb.

>>42602524
Random thought. Could we take aspects and principles from Acer's demonbane sword, Samma Vaca, and MP Buster to create a Ki attack that weakens Demons and does a little bit of damage, that also maintains the 'permanency' of the debuff as long as it isn't healed like Acer's sword.

Also what PL are Yaji and Tao at?

>>42602747
Tomorrow's going to be quite a battle, that's for sure.

>>42603773
>>42603817
>>42604018
You at the very least have the Izumi Combo enhanced with Lightning, so while it's not perfect, it'll make for quite a surprise.

>>42605569
Such a thing wouldn't be possible to attempt at your current Level.

Tao's at 2970, Yajirobe's at 2900 (5800 MAX).

>>42607311
>Such a thing wouldn't be possible to attempt at your current Level.

Understood, I'll keep it in mind for when we get to Z. Considering that it seems like a lot of our main antagonists are going to be Artificial Demons in the future it'd be nice to have another countermeasure.

Demonbane Beam!

>You at the very least have the Izumi Combo enhanced with Lightning, so while it's not perfect, it'll make for quite a surprise.

Hmm...could we potentially, at the end of a Raio-ken Machinegun Fist combo, have the last punch of it be a Lightning Phantom Shotgun point blank?

Thats kind of the plan I had, but I should probably run it by you here as opposed doing in combat.

>>42607532
>Demonbane Beam!
...I like it. This gives me ideas.

And you could, that'd be a decent enough combo for you to try to pull off.
