The Jougan. (Source: Google Images) Note: This Article assumes that the readers are up to date with Boruto: Naruto Next Generations and contains spoilers from episode 31, please watch it before reading this article. In the last episode of the Kirigakure arc we see that Karatachi Kagura unable to kill Uzumaki Boruto because friendship! Hoshigaki Shizuma, the leader of the Blood Mist movement decides to fight Boruto off with the stolen Samehada at which point Mitsuki jumps in and reveals that Shizuma was the one behind the assassinations he accused Chojurou the Rokudaime Mizukage of to spark a civil war in Kiri. Shizuma then proceeds to fight Boruto and Mitsuki and after an action packed sequence Boruto knocks Shizuma into a rock with the Boruto Stream combo (like father like son, eh?) (Screenshots) Shizuma gets up only to be absorbed by the Samehada and transform into some human-shark mutant. At this point Chojuro jumps in and asks Kagura for the Hiramekarei but Kagura asks

What if Shino's Last Shot Had Hit Rustal's Ship?

Note: This article contains several spoilers, so if you haven't seen Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans yet please do so before reading it. Iron Blooded Orphans ended leaving fans divided. However, one thing both sides largely agree on is their dissatisfaction with the main antagonist Rustal Elion walking away with all the prize and no consequences. It left many fans wondering what would happen had Shino Norba's attack hit Rustal's ship? In my opinion, these would be the most likely outcomes: #1 Nothing Changes As the title suggests, the events remain the same. Even though Rustal would surely die, the Gjallarhorn still hold the advantage with the Dainsleif rail-guns and the larger forces, Vidar or Julietta Juris could rally the remaining forces and chase after Tekkadan. It's likely that the Mars branch would not side with McGillis Fareed like in the Anime and events play out as they did. The only difference is that with Rustal dead, Gaelio Badui

Ashi’s Time Paradox! Is Samurai Jack’s Story Really Over?

Image
(Screenshot from Samurai Jack Episode CI) Spoiler Alert: This article discusses elements from Samurai Jack’s last episode. Author’s Note: I know Samurai Jack isn’t an Anime but it was inspired by one so it counts. In Episode CI we see Ashi gain control of herself and her new powers which she uses to take Jack back with her in past to kill Aku and undo the terrible future. Next everyone is preparing for their wedding when Ashi faints on her way to the alter and fades from existence because since Aku is dead she couldn’t have been born. But as Jack stood under the cherry blossom tree with a bittersweet smile I couldn’t help but wonder, what does Ashi’s disappearance mean for the series? Ashi disappears because Aku does not exist anymore and thus she can’t be conceived. But if Ashi was never born then who sent Jack back to the past? And so we have a time paradox. Now Ashi didn’t fade immediately after Aku’s defeat but instead at least a few days after. This was of co

Baby Majuub: What if Baby had possessed Uub and Buu instead of Vegeta?

Baby Majuub What if Baby had possessed Uub and then absorbed Buu? The result is Baby Majuub. Uub, despite being a Human, was strong enough to match Trunks, Gohan, Goten and Bra and held his own against Baby Vegeta. After fusing with Buu Majuub was evenly matched against Baby Vegeta but due to inexperience and dumb luck ended up getting hit by his own chocolate beam only to cause havoc inside his belly when SSJ4 Goku fights Baby Vegeta in Golden Ape form. To do that Baby would have to learn about Uub and Buu. He could learn about them through the memories of Trunks or Goten, both of whom he managed to posses at one point or another. Now Majin Buu is immune to Baby's virus due to his magic and physical makeup but Baby can still posses Uub. After possessing Uub he could match Majin Buu and maybe even use Buu's chocolate beam against him like Baby Vegeta did in GT when fighting Majuub, and eat chocolate Majin Buu to absorb him and become Baby Majuub. Majuub could be cons
