bruh you're the one that's confused. When I talked about Grayfia's lie detection, I didn't mean it as an actually ability or power but rather her experience in dealing with devils. Anyone with in inkling about DxD would be able to properly comprehend what I mean, and twisting my words to make me look stupid is only making you silly instead. The topic is about the MC lying about knowing the time difference, everything said in this discussion falls under it. How you managed to get lost in the reply chain to the point of thinking that I'm talking nonsense, is beyond me.

Because my point was always been about the MC lying through Grayfia's "lie detection", it's my opening remarks and what stemmed this reply chain. Perspective and context are key factors in how the MC managed to "lie without lying".

That's the problem of vague wording. For us, we know that the MC knows of the time gap, so his words would seem like he didn't expect how severe the gap is. But from Grayfia's perspective, it sounds like he was unaware that there's a time gap. He's being misleading, probably because stating that he's aware but lack details would imply that he (accidentally) abandoned Grayfia for two decades because he couldn't be bothered to learn the details. This is especially damning considering that he could easily learn the time gap by simply asking.

Yes, but when it was brought up later, the MC acted like the time difference was a complete new concept despite told beforehand. He lacked details not awareness, which is why I said that he's either lying, or the author/MC forgot.

Nah, I'm pretty sure that they briefly talked about the time difference right before he left HotD. Loli goddess mention that the time flow varies between universes.

nah, the military has it in their archives.

irrc he specifically asked his loli goddess about the time difference before he made the jump.

Yeah but Byakuya was the only she legitimately tried to form a bond with, while everyone else got sidelined. It's the same difference as a guy fantasizing being surrounded by girl but only pursued one despite the opportunity to go for more.

You're exaggerating, losing a rib would hardly affect a human's functionality much less a superpowered being as strong as Aizen. The worst thing losing a rib would do is slightly reduce the surface area the ribcage protects. Aizen can easily compensate by simply not getting hit, which is a standard combat rule that everyone (except for Zaraki) follows. Losing his depth perception is a much bigger issue than losing a few points in defense, and using Tousen as an example for why it isn't that bad is just hilarious. Dude was born blind so he had an entire lifetime to get used to living and fighting blind, and when he gained his sight it f*cked up his entire fighting style which led to his death. Losing part of his senses is just as debilitating as gaining a new one, so Aizen would have to unlearn then relearn how to fight with his disability, and until then, his missing eye would remain an exploitable weakness. The silver lining of his situation is that he has years to prepare before facing his enemies, so it isn't as bad a it could be. The only reasonable justification why Aizen would sacrifice his eye is because of whatever method he used to create his clone specifically required an eye, otherwise he would have used less important a body part.

Depends on the author.

She paid for both, OG Issei was just so inconsequential that you can write him off the equation. This Issei is actually worth something besides being the host of Ddraig, so naturally, the cost of reincarnating him would be higher than the original.

That has as much logic as learning how to shoot a gun after getting shot.

in which Soifon learned witchcraft and got a pet dragon.

She took the suggestion to explore the world seriously, and became Lara Croft.

Why an eye? Why sacrifice his depth perception when he can feed Aron something less important, like a rib or a piece of his skin?

Is this gonna be a thing? Are you just gonna introduce a love interest, have her form a bond with the MC, only to drive a wedge between them and have them part ways later? It's off-putting how it already happened twice.

You're not wrong but to be fair, Sirzechs is a terrible comparison. He can probably one shot anyone below the top ten even without using technique.

Yes. My previous comment was explaining how he regenerates.

Ah, I get ya. Askin can raise the lethal dosage of whatever harmed him, allowing his body an easier time dealing with the damage he sustained, resulting in some sort of healing factor.

Doing that would only limit the amount of nutrients the target can safely take, instead of healing them.
