All right. Though it took me two times to read through it, Kagomaru's post supplied SOME suggestions, though the idea on a prize was a bit far fetched. When you would come out, overcoming an enemy such as your own self, you won't simply "increase" in power. It just does not work that way. If you happen to "level" while fighting such a mob, then, hey! Cool beans! But you won't "instantly" be "recognized" by some "godly" entity, and be given more power than you had initially before fighting yourself. And yes, This IS taking your reply to the extreme, Kagomaru. It is simply done so it proves a point.
You reminded me of one bit of a quirk I will add to my project when I get to it, Hakuri, thank you deeply for it.
Tabathia, no one ever said this had to go in sync with Bleach OR InuYasha. It could just be the area's theme that suggests it being possible, ... However, if you want to get technical:
- InuYasha DID support the concept of an anti-existance in several characters. InuYasha himself suffered this through his Youkai blood. Though, it never went as "extreme" as his "youkai"-self pulling away from InuYasha, making a whole other being, InuYasha always did struggle fighting that side of him, in his own being, attempting to suppress it at any given time needed.
-In Bleach, Hollows exist. Hollows are basically, no better, than an anti-self of a character in this anime as well. Why do I say? Well, of course, the main Character, Ichigo shows us why. He, at some point in the series, becomes a hollow. But in the process of, through strong will, confines the hollow-self of him giving him "two" personalities. This is how _I_ view it, of course, but it is no different from the real deal.
So, the next time, think outside the box. kthx.
Again, Mr. Someguy. Things simply will not happen when you defeat yourself. You won't be given extra power by defeating this "anti" form of yourself. The most that could happen, at any given case; "You keep control of your persona". And can live HAPPILY EVER AFTER KNOWING IT! YAY!
In any case, thank you for the feedback, some of it will come in great use.
P.S. For the strong and able of BIYG, keep a look out in the following week or two. You may infact have to encounter such a battle. Though, by posts, and judging who posted, none of you will make it.
