Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
Maybe I just need a quick refresher, but if I recall aren't they pretty much the same thing. In Frieza's struggle against Toppo, Frieza tries to stop the sphere, only to fail and get hit point blank with it. But don't both erase anything from existence? I mean "Destruction" is said right before the Toppo releases the sphere just like Beerus says destruction before he uses "destruction"... right?

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
I figure that the direct hakai technique such as Beerus used on Zamasu is simply a more refined/accurate version of shooting it as a ki blast. It's essentially the same thing but it uses more skill and precision.

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
If you get killed by Hakai, your soul gets erased as well. So basically a two-in-one attack. A bit different than the "destroys automatically once it hits" technique it was portrayed to be initially but still pretty decent.

"Hakai"could have a better name, its doesn't sound very destructive or dangerous

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
It sounded badass as hell when Beerus first used it on Zamasu. And since it litterally means destruction in japanese, I'm sure it sounds pretty destructive for japanese peopleGoku786 wrote:"Hakai"could have a better name, its doesn't sound very destructive or dangerous

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
Not anything. In the manga, it is stated that Hakai cannot erase immortal beings. Which is why Goku could have never erased Fused Zamasu, because in the manga Fused Zamasu was fully immortal, he wasn't half-mortal like in the anime (on top of the fact that Goku's Hakai was quite slow and inefficient).But don't both erase anything from existence?
I think that the Destruction technique used by Beerus and the Energy of Destruction technique used by Sidra and Toppo are the same thing, and in fact the mountain that was hit by Toppo's Energy of Destruction vanished like Zamasu did when he was destroyed by Beeerus. I believe that the Energy of Destruction is just the power of Destruction manifested as energy.
Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
In the anime,the same is implied since whis says they have something better than pot they brought.Why would he say that if beerus can deal with zamasu by using hakai?SupremeKai25 wrote:Not anything.

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
Yes, exactly. And it makes sense that Hakai cannot work on immortal beings. Otherwise, what would be stopping the Gods of Destruction from starting a rebellion and erasing the Omni-King?Hawk9211 wrote:In the anime,the same is implied since whis says they have something better than pot they brought.Why would he say that if beerus can deal with zamasu by using hakai?SupremeKai25 wrote:Not anything.

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
Well we don't know if the angels are immortal but in the anime they are standing right next to Beerus and Champa during their little spat and are fine while everything else gets erased. It could simple fall under "Destruction Immunity".SupremeKai25 wrote:Yes, exactly. And it makes sense that Hakai cannot work on immortal beings.

I am a bit confused though, if Hakai dose not work on an immortal then why was Fused Zamasu being erased by Goku's use of Hakai? From what I understand he only survived because he used Mai as a hostage and his immortal body regerated the damage. Did I miss something?

My guess is that he would have just regenerated back to normal but he and Goku didn’t know that. Remember when vegito blew off half his body and it just fixed itself, I’d say same thing would happen

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
I guess the manga's dragon balls (or at least the Super ones) must grant "Absolute Immortality". That means that the possessor cannot die no matter what. Even if you erased them completely, body and soul, they'd still come back and if the paradox enabling powers of the time ring are still in effect then Fused Zamasu is also immune to the effects of causality. Not an easy person to kill without a cosmic delete button.ToshioWrites wrote:Lord Frieza wrote:Well we don't know if the angels are immortal but in the anime they are standing right next to Beerus and Champa during their little spat and are fine while everything else gets erased.

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
It might have looked like the Hakai was actually erasing Fused Zamasu, but Beerus outright stated that it doesn't work on immortal beings, therefore we already know Fused Zamasu would have survived. So, yes, I think that Fused Zamasu would have been able to regenerate back to normal from nothingness. He probably freaked out because he didn't know he could resist the Hakai.I am a bit confused though, if Hakai dose not work on an immortal then why was Fused Zamasu being erased by Goku's use of Hakai?

Indeed, the only weakness of Fused Zamasu is that he was not an official Supreme Kai, and so his fusion had a time-limit of one hour. However, the immortality of Future Zamasu stopped the fusion from ending, and that ultimately gave birth to Infinite Zamasu. It would seem that, when Goku Black and Future Zamasu fused, they actually merged at a cellular level and they just wouldn't defuse after the time-limit was however.I guess the manga's dragon balls (or at least the Super ones) must grant "Absolute Immortality".

Even if you erased them completely, body and soul, they'd still come back and if the paradox enabling powers of the time ring are still in effect then Fused Zamasu is also immune to the effects of causality.

But however, as it was pointed above, it is heavily implied in the anime by Whis that the Hakai doesn't work on immortal beings.

It’s not “Absolute” or “cannot die no matter what” immortality because Zeno erased him.Lord Frieza wrote: I guess the manga's dragon balls (or at least the Super ones) must grant "Absolute Immortality".

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
Zen-Oh is the King of Everything, logic dictates that he is above the power of the Super Dragon Balls, therefore the immortality granted by the Super Dragon Balls cannot resist Zen-Oh himself.Helios518 wrote:It’s not “Absolute” or “cannot die no matter what” immortality because Zeno erased him.Lord Frieza wrote: I guess the manga's dragon balls (or at least the Super ones) must grant "Absolute Immortality".

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
Sure, but that just makes the immortality not absolute because Zamasu can be killed/erased otherwise you’re contradicting what “absolute” means.SupremeKai25 wrote:Zen-Oh is the King of Everything, logic dictates that he is above the power of the Super Dragon Balls, therefore the immortality granted by the Super Dragon Balls cannot resist Zen-Oh himself.Helios518 wrote:It’s not “Absolute” or “cannot die no matter what” immortality because Zeno erased him.Lord Frieza wrote: I guess the manga's dragon balls (or at least the Super ones) must grant "Absolute Immortality".

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
Not really, what your thinking of is referred to as Omnilock. This is were the user is apart from everything, a unique entity of their own unbound from the rules of any reality. Such a being literally immune to everything include any attack, the effects of time, reality warping and manipulation, even Universal Irreversibility and Nonexistence.Helios518 wrote:Sure, but that just makes the immortality not absolute because Zamasu can be killed/erased otherwise you’re contradicting what “absolute” means.SupremeKai25 wrote:Zen-Oh is the King of Everything, logic dictates that he is above the power of the Super Dragon Balls, therefore the immortality granted by the Super Dragon Balls cannot resist Zen-Oh himself.Helios518 wrote:

Zamasu and the Super Dragon Balls are both part of the DB universe and a subject to its laws. They are part of that universe. Zen-Oh holds what is effectively Omni-Control over all the DB multiverse, allowing him to access its cosmic source code and delete what ever he wants regardless of whatever it may be. Zamasu's immortality is absolute in the face of literally everything the universe can throw at him, but Zen-Oh's power is quit literally beyond "Absolute".

2) You’re giving Zeno powers that’s he doesn’t have (as far as we’ve seen). He just erases things not able to manipulate or create things otherwise he would’ve created a friend himself.
3) That’s like saying Raditz’s power is absolute in the face of everything before Saiyan Saga.
4) Zeno isn’t beyond “absolute”, Zeno is the “absolute” force of a DB timeline.

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
In practice, the two serve the same function: erasure of whatever the Hakaishin doesn't like.
It was stated that Toppo needed to charge up his Hakai Energy when he shot it out; when Sidra gave it to the assassin leader, he also shot it out as a ball of energy. It could be that the Hakai Energy ball is a more general purpose erasure tool, whilst the Hakai Technique is a directed erasure at a single target.

I claimed, however, that even the Gods of Destruction could do nothing against Fused Zamasu's immortality, which is astonishing. That is a fact.

Re: Hakai and sphere of destruction... how are they different?
Everything is graded these days, there are multiple types of immortality, rageing from just not ageing to absolute. Zamasu's version of this ability ticks the most boxes for the highest grade classed as absolute. Absolute itself is also graded in fiction and in this case it would be classed as universal level, the laws that govern our own reality are absolute yet in another universe they may not exist at all such as one of chaos. Even infinity has levels when you start bringing multiverse into it.Helios518 wrote:Lord Frieza wrote:Helios518 wrote:

4) Zeno isn’t beyond “absolute”, Zeno is the “absolute” force of a DB timeline.
Edit: to put it this way.
Zamasu's immortality is a universal absolute while Zen-Oh Erase is a multi-universal one. One trumps the other due to its greater level of infinity.
As for 2) maybe I didn't explain it well as I didn't mean Zen=Oh can manipluate the universe, just trying to explain how his Erase function.
