Thanks.KBABZ wrote:Midichlorians are a concept introduced in Episode I: The Phantom Menace in 1999. They're life forms that live in the blood of nearly every organism, and allow one to speak to the Force and do all the cool Jedi/Sith stuff. In particular, people with a high midichlorian count are more powerful, so in that way they're comparable to Power Level culture in that someone with a huge count will be significant. In the film, Anakin has a blood sample taken and his midichlorian count is stated to be much higher than even Yoda's, making him a Big Deal. They got a HUGE backlash from fans as it basically trivialized the concept of the Force, that Darth Vader and Luke and Palpatine are so powerful not through talent but by genetics and science. The hate was so profound that they were never mentioned ever again in any Star Wars story after that point.Meshack wrote:I don’t know what Mitochloridrias are but I know it’s from Star Wars and I heard they are set it in stone when you are born. Toriyama said you can increase S-Cells by being gentle, high battle power, environment. The S-Cells aren’t set in stone. Those who are saying they’re the same are the problem among this community and will just continue to spread misinformation by making the comparison.
What makes S-Cells different from midichlorians is that one can increase the amount of S-Cells they have, while in Star Wars you cannot increase your midichlorian count. In that way, S-Cells are basically just an explainer for "why" Super Saiyans exist in Saiyan biology, compared to midichlorians which actually restrict and compromise the mechanics of the story and characters.
So there’s no reason to compare S-Cells to Midochlorians because you can increase S-Cells and don’t make you more powerful.
