Mitsuri, the Love Hashira, is one of the fan favourite Hashira. In her backstory, we learnt that she possess immense strength even as a child, easily overpowering even grown man. However, she found herself unable to find a suitor growing up. After her failed marriage negotiations, she realized that she has to hide her true self. She pretended to be weak, held back from eating and even dyed her hair pink in order to be more attractive. In the end, she joined the Demon Slayer Corps to fulfil her goal of finding a suitable husband who is stronger than her, rising to the ranks of a Hashira due to her physical prowess.

CorrectionUm actually ... She didn't dye her hair pink. It became pink because she ate too much sakura mochi.

It was deemed abnormal and thus she dyed her hair black. (However, this doesn't seem to occur in the manga, and was depicted in the anime)

Hey, not sure if this is frowned upon, but since I don't see that it's against the rules, here's a shameless promotion to a community dedicated to Um Actually questions.

I loved the concept of the game show and that prompted me to create similar questions. Though the community is currently just a dumping grounds for all my ideas, just want to put it out there for people with similar interests.

In Invincible, Robot was a rather mysterious figure. He was initially part of the Teen Team, who later joined and was appointed the leader of the new Guardians of the Globe after the previous guardians died. Throughout the series, we see that he is scheming some plan with the Mauler Twins, aiding their escape from prison. It was later revealed that the robot was controlled by a human who suffered serious deformations and illness. He was then aided by the twins to artificially create a body made from his team member's, Rex Splode's, blood. The twins then help transfer his consciousness from the original body to this new one.

CorrectionUm actually ... His consciousness is not transferred to the new body. It was duplicated over to the new body, and the original died of its illness.

In the original 151 Pokemons, Psyduck and Slowpoke are the two "derpy-looking" Water/Psychic types. Psyduck has mystical powers, but doesn't recall using them; which is why it always looks so confused. Meanwhile, Slowpoke is so oblivious that if something bites its tail, it won't even notice for a whole day. In episode 66 of the anime, when the team is tasked by Oak to figure out what causes the evolution of Slowpoke to Slowbro, Misty's Psyduck comes out of it's Pokeball and proceed to have a long, seemingly random and unintelligible conversation with a Slowpoke.

CorrectionUm actually ... Psyduck is not a Water/Psychic type, it is a pure Water type despite it's namesake.

(The Japanese name of Psyduck was Ko-duck, which could mean "child-duck" and thus does not hint at its psychic abilities at all)

 

Yor Forger, previously Yor Briar, works for Garden as an assassin under the code name "Thorn Princess". She is highly well-suited in her role, having immense physical strength that even easily overpower WISE agent Fiona Frost when playing tennis. She is also highly resistant to poison. She drank a cocktail laced with pufferfish poison, and only felt slightly unwell. When fighting the assassins on the cruise ship, she was unfazed after inhaling poison gas capable of taking down a bear.

CorrectionUm actually ... She did not feel unwell after drinking the poison. She was suffering from a gunshot wound during the previous assignment, and drinking the poison relieved her pain.

Compound V is chemical that plays an important part in The Boys TV series. Supes, who initially were thought to be born naturally, were actually created by Vought when they inject babies with this chemical, granting them super powers. It also boost the performance of Supes when injected and was also responsible for creating super-powered terrorists. In the fight against Supes, even our protagonists, Butcher and Hughie, resorted to using it to gain laser eyes and teleportation respectively.

CorrectionUm actuallly ... Butcher and Hughie did not use Compound V. They used Temp V, which is a newly developed, temporary version of the chemical.

In Jujutsu Kaisen 0, we follow the high school student Yuta Okkotsu. He is cursed by his childhood friend and love interest, Rika; who died in a freak accident and became an extremely powerful, overprotective spirit that harms anyone who threatens him. He became skilled at using a katana, which not only serves for combat purposes but also to controls the cursed energy from Rika.

CorrectionUm actually... Yuta was the one who (unknowingly) cursed Rika, rather it is the other way around, as he was unable to accept her death.

 

In the final episodes of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean, after the protaganists lose the fight against Pucci, Emporio finds himself in Green Dolphin Street Prison. Emporio tricks Pucci into inserting Weather Report's Stand disc into his head, thereby granting him its powers. Using the stand to fill the room with pure oxygen, Emporio finally defeats Pucci. The season ends in a bittersweet moment where we see Emporio and Ermes hitchhiking a ride with Jolyne and Anasui, who are now a couple.

CorrectionUm actually ... Due to Pucci resetting the universe, the characters at the end are not the same as the ones that we've known throughout the story. They resemble their counterparts, but don't share their names. Their names are actually Eldis, Irene and Anakis respectively,

 

Chisato is an elite Lycoris, an agent of a government-sponsored all-female task force of assassins and spies made up of orphans. She has such great agility that she can dodge bullets at point blank range. Due her poor accuracy with a gun, she uses this skill to dodge enemy attacks while getting closer, allowing her to hit her shots.

spoilerUm actually ... She doesn't have poor gun accuracy. It is because of her insistence of using non-lethal rubber bullets which have a less predictable trajectory which requires her to get closer.

In Harvest Moon: Back to Nature, you have a choice of 5 bachelorettes. In order to woo a girl, you give gifts that she likes, and avoid giving ones that she dislikes.

Here are some gifts raises the affection of all of them:

  • Jewellery
  • Salad
  • Egg
  • Truffle
  • Toy flower

And here are some gifts that decreases the affection of all of them:

  • Chicken feed
  • Weed
  • Garbage
  • Stone
  • Fries Recipe
  • Lumber

spoilerUm actually ... one of the 5 bachelorettes (Popuri) gains affection (albeit a little) when given Weed.

 

In the Eternity Devil arc, Special Division 4 is sent into a hotel to kill the Eternity Devil who is said to reside in an hotel. After realizing that they are trapped in there, the team falls into disarray. The devil offers to release them if they feed Denji to him. Kobeni attempts to kill Denji to accept the Eternity Devil's offer, but fails. Finally, the devil was defeated when Denji jumping straight into its mouth, sawing through its flesh, finding its heart and destroying it.

spoilerUm actually ... Denji did not find the devil's heart. The devil's heart was inaccessible to the protagonists, and thus it was effectively invincible. However, it still can feel pain and thus was unable to bear the torment of Denji repeatedly attacking him for days, and ultimately revealed the heart to Denji to destroy.

 

Nichirin Swords are the main weapons used by Demon Slayers in the Demon Slayer Corps. They are forged by special sword smiths, each crafted to fit the Demon slayer's preferences and fighting style, such as:

  • a flexible whip-like sword for Mitsuri,
  • a thin stinger katana for Shinobu; gaining agility and compensating power by using poisons
  • a pair of dual teethed/serrated katana for Inosuke who prefers to saw through his targets instead of slicing
  • a pair of cleavers connected by a chain for Tengen, who whirls it for both offence and defence

spoilerUm actually ... Inosuke's katana is not serrated by design. Inosuke's katana was an ordinary Nichirin katana, but he modified it personally to be serrated, much to the dismay/anger of his sword smith.
