Unfortunately you need to have an actual sense of humor to even attempt to give others a sense of humor. In no way was your picture funny and all it could possibly have done is piss off Drey and possibly make him drop the translation entirely. So sorry but your picture was totally uncalled for and this answering picture does not cover it up.DarkDooM wrote:

It does seem like it would a spell that would be right up his alley. I can't see why he wouldn't be able to use it if it was truly a spell of decomposition.abbad0n wrote:Just read through Volume 9 again.
Would Tatsuya be able to use Muspelheim? From the description it would seem to be something he could do, or are there reasons he couldn't?

I hate to rain it down on you, but just because it uses the word 'decompose' in the description doesn't mean Tatsuya can use it. The primary reason is, he himself does not have the ability to form this 'decomposed gas state', which involves as quoted, the separation of ions from electrons, which is fundamentally different from Tatsuya's Decomposition ability. Though now that I look at it, it should be "separating electrons from ions" and not the other way around.Gohankuten wrote:It does seem like it would a spell that would be right up his alley.

Actually the separation of ions from electrons is not fundamentally different from Tatsuya's decomposition ability. He can easily break things down to the molecular level so it's not unlikely he could also go down to the atomic and subatomic levels. But this is really a moot point since I could never see Tatsuya actually using this magic since it doesn't seem like it would be efficient compared to what Tatsuya can already do. But I still think he could do this magic easily if he wanted to if this magic only involved decomposition which is where I am unsure if it does or not.Detalz wrote: I hate to rain it down on you, but just because it uses the word 'decompose' in the description doesn't mean Tatsuya can use it.

Tatsuya couldnt use it even if his life depended on it, okay exaggeration on my part but it is basic physics and a smokescreen of the use of 'decompose' in the description of Muspelheim. Plasma is one of the 4 states of matter, the other 3 being liquid, solid and gas. What Muspelheim does is heating up the gas molecules to ionize them into plasma. You still got the matter the gas was made up of originally, just in a different form this time (plasma). Now we look at Tatsuya's Mist Dispersionabbad0n wrote:Just read through Volume 9 again.

Decompose, is akin to separate/break down into components or basic elements, this is backed by all the uses we have seen of it thus far as well. Mist Dispersion doesn't alter the state matter is in, which Muspelheim does, it simply destroys what ever it is used on down to its molecules. I'm clueless as to what japanese word is used in the raws but unless it is strictly the word for 'decompose' it should be worth changing it to 'changes' in the description of Muspelheim.Vol.4 Modern Magic wrote:Mist Dispersion By interfering with the structural information, this magic decomposes substances into molecules such as ions and the basic elements.
