What I hate the most is that magic in Witch Hat Atelier violates the laws of thermodynamics.So far I didn't see any limitations like "the ink loses its power with time" or something. I didn't see any explanation where does the energy comes from, it is clear it doesn't come from the user.Thus Infinite Energy can be created from the magic ink.The author should have studied physics a little more.
Hard magic systems are for faggots, if it made scientific sense it wouldn't be called majic.
>>288191145Don't gotta explain shit. That's why it's magic, you stupid fuck.
>>288191173Just because he's being dumb doesn't mean you aren't
>>288191145>"the ink loses its power with time"Coco has to practice redrawing stasis seals because they wear out with time. The first episode starts with the mentor having to repair a carriage whose magic had worn off. The second mentor regularly has to travel around repairing magic seals he already drew to keep them functional in the wild.
you could replace every word with this post with frieren and demons btw
>>288191145You don't know how it works. What if it's just harnessing ambient energy in the environment?
It's magic.

>>288191248What's wrong with disliking hard magic systems?
>>288191145>boring, cookie cutter characters>boring story with no stakes>just outright embarrassing shit (making a pillow for the dragon!)the problem isn't the magic system
its great

>seething
>>288191145
What kind of magic system wouldn't violate the laws of thermodynamics? Even "hard" magic systems are largely about how internally consistent they are and not that they don't go against the laws of physics. This is a pretty stupid complaint in a series full of reasons for criticism.
>>288192015>>288191759
>>288192015
>>288191798Disliking them is one thing, you can do thatPainting them as categorically bad and everyone who likes them as being objectively wrong, that comes from misunderstanding the nature of fantasy
>>288192015Oniisama's
if energy is infinite, then they could go back in time and do some other shit too.
>>288192054That almost feels like cheating, you're talking about a system where the idea itself is "actual real life science plus an extra unknown phenomenon"
>>288192013And I don't have to read shit, get it because it's shit.
>>288192090alchemy isn't even extra it's just not bullshit in this instance
>>288192053Kyuubei specifically says magical girls violate the laws of thermodynamics, which is why he's using that to forestall entropy.>>288192054Unless the series goes into detail about its criteria for equivalent exchange there's always wiggle room for bullshit. Never read the series though. But if we look into how transmuting may work irl, it takes a ton of additional energy for "equivalent exchange" (though I don't know how real to life this is in theoretical transmutation). It's probably possible to turn lead into gold through some nuclear process but adding and removing subatomic particles like that isn't straightforward or easy to do. Never mind something more complex.
>>288192070I shall now marry my sister.
>>288192180This but the opposite, magic specifically doesn't violate it or they would use it to fix the problem.
>>288191802yeah why didnt they just use some generic magic blast to kill
>>288191145Magic in that universe is analogous to art in ours.>>288191802It has better themes, political intrigue, and world building than Frieren.

@288192258You're really bad at this.
>>288192268Sorry I haven't seen your favorite anime, anon. I just don't enjoy watching/reading stuff just because it's popular. I did watch maybe half of the first episode of 2003 iirc though.
>>288192277My art is critically acclaimed, it's not my fault you don't know how to use a banana.
>>288192055Fantasy as a genre or fantasy as a term?

>>288192353I apologize
>>288191802I'm glad that I am not so devoid of whimsy like you.
>>288191145this is why most nip authors just go with a "you cast magic by imagining hard" magic system, because if you actually try to come up with a cool and unique magic system retards will try to overanalyze it so that they can pretend to be smart
Atelier fear the muslim
>>288193394It's just the autist that shits himself over WHA, don't mind him. He probably just used AI to make his bait.
>>288193601That's you though.

>>288191145Just because you don't know how to create infinite energy doesn't mean witches can't
>>288191145I agree, it is so dumb that they have infinite energy, but they are all still poor.
>>288192244frieren has dogshit world building so that's not a high bar
Genuinely why the fuck don't witches use rulers and compasses? Come to think of it, why wasn't coco using a ruler to cut cloth in the first place? Have these people ever heard of measurements?
>>288191145does this have any fanservice otherwise i might watch it

WHA fans, thank you for volunteering to absorb a large part of the shitposters this season.
>>288199447Eyeballs aren't real.
>>288199882Tetia, easily.
>>288198567>>288199422You can't use a compass or ruler when you're drawing inside your own shirt without making it obvious what you're doing to strangers. Stencils aren't all that valuable because mass production of seals in peace time has not been an issue in the setting. You could use them, but it is better practice for witches to just learn to do it free hand because being a witch is a skilled trade and not a factory. Also, fun fact, Shirahama and the Kazuki are friends and have collabed a few times.
>>288200548
>autistic faggot is angry that magic is magic
>>288191145I also have this problem, I just don't understand from where the magic power comes. Why scribbling somethings have any effect? Why a different symbol or size change change power so much, from where the power comes from?Makes he appreciate Honzuki/Acendance much more.Mana is power produced by an organ inside the body and it's finite and can also damage the body.There are also magic symbols and circles there, for them to work Mana is needed to he charged, and the reason why different symbols have different effects is because they are tied to super natural/dimensional beings that actually exists. People dedicate their Mana to those beings that in turn lends them Mana.
>>288200999Where mana comes from is a big secret, but the last episode just hinted to you about it.
>>288201160Oh yes, I noticed.But still, input/output power makes no sense.
>>288191145The energy comes from the magic ink, you dumbass, different inks can give you different potency and duration as explained in the las episode. >and where does the magic ink come fromthat's a spoiler
Well ackshually the resources spawned by magic runes are from an alternative dimension. The runes are reverse engineered celestial script which the Creator left usable for shits and giggles. Point being you can always bullshit something plausible when it comes to magic.
>>288198567there's a limit on how big you can make a compass until people notice you have a huge compass
>>288201421clearly there's an extra component in this world that allows for magical creatures to exist and magic ink to work
>>288199697>speaking of myself hereYou didn't get it.
>>288191145>What I hate the most is that magic in Witch Hat Atelier violates the laws of thermodynamics.This has to be bait, I refuse to believe OP is this retarded.
>>288200999It's magic, anon
>>288200548>You can't use a compass or ruler when you're drawing inside your own shirtBut you can when you are drawing your fuck ton of pages of predrawn shit which they also said most witches do and showed them doing.So why the fuck dont they use them?
>>288202434>tfw astrophysics major
>>288204321A compass is a crutch for the difficulty of drawing freehand. Drawing without being able to see your own hands is extremely challenging. The compass only limits the practice witches need to consistently do the latter.
>>288204398It's a simple subject.
>>288204463Sure, and QB's explanation mischaracterized it.
>>288204417No a compass ensures precision which is important for magical devices which they create.You can not use one for emergency freedrawn shit.And anyone who thinks >BUT IT SLOWS DOWN YOUR PRACTICEHas never drawn in their life. You can get better at drawing circles but you will never be perfect 100% of the time no matter how much practice you get, its completely retarded and shows an ignorance of any sort of precise drawing to claim otherwise.
>>288191145>for dumb peopleFor women. They don't really care about those things. It's just catering to target audience is all.Same with the no fanservice of girls.
>>288204479I mean, clearly they don't have to be that precise. I imagine most of the magic comes from the stuff that can't be circumvented, ie. the rest of the sigil.
>>288204547I assume the bigger magic like the water dragon requires precision while the baby shit the apprentices are making dont.But its also kinda moot since you could predraw 99% of the circles with a compass on all of their circle papers and just do the sigils as needed
>>288191802They should've powered up and punched the dragon really hard instead
>>288204479How often do you draw in the dark? Look at Agott in the previous episode. Could you draw a sigil like that blind and without hand tools? That is the standard of freehand skill witches have to meet and stay competent at under pressure. Are witches going to be truly as good as someone using proper drafting tools? Probably not. But that draftsman also couldn't do what Agott did because the type of muscle memory is never going to be there.
>>288204610Damn by your logic they should just recruit blind kids then
Why nobody created paper with 99% circle?Just fill whatever you want, and then close the gap.Done.
>>288204586My assumption is that the rest of the sigil is where the precision really needs to shine. The apprentices are struggling with the circle for a bit, but they quickly get to a level where that isn't the thing causing problems. And since you want to adjust the circle size depending on what you need, it is quicker to just draw a quick circle even if it isn't as precise as a compass drawn circle than to prep a bunch of almost complete circles.
>>288204671 That is the standard way that casting is done.It is just that there are always going to be situations you didn't plan for, therefore you'd need to be able to freehand spells covertly.
>>288204671You need different sizes of circles for different spells.
>>288204475>I don't get itSad
>>288191802>le stakeswhy are shounenspics like this?

>>288191145This is too intelligent for the anons here.
>>288204479>its completely retarded and shows an ignorance of any sort of precise drawing to claim otherwise.Isn't it a super retarded thing to claim when you're talking about a manga that is drawn and written by the same person?
There aren't any widely distributed tools for magic because it's supposed to be a secret than any old retard can do magic if they know the patterns. Mass produced tools kinda gives away the game.
>>288206053They use AI
>>288191145It's a fantasy world where the laws of physics are different from ours. We can speculate that magic is a particle or some shit but until someone does some scientific investigation we can't know. It's how shit like magnetism would've been considered magic in our world at some point in the past until we had a better explanation.
>>288205015If you really think you learned accurate thermodynamics from a villain's monologue in a magical girl anime you might have brain damage
