But Ariga wrote "chitan" which of course means titanium. It's a silly mix-up that almost makes sense, but that was not the author's original intent, thus it is an error. *Shrug*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-89861657627397032742010-02-10T11:04:47.347-06:002010-02-10T11:04:47.347-06:00Ah, maybe I'm wrong then.

I was pretty sure it has a mistranslation since Chitan vs. Chitin is a pretty honest mistake, since chitin would make sense as well.<br /><br />And to be fair, we don't really know how heavy Ceramical Titanium is-- after all, while HardMan is portrayed as super heavy and dense, MetalMan's Metal Blades are made out of the same thing and seem relatively light.Enziohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10155129964324823831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-57520087680001169992010-02-10T07:56:20.649-06:002010-02-10T07:56:20.649-06:00Ooh!

Look what I dug up on Wiki's article for chitin: <br /><br />"Most recent studies point out that chitin is a good inducer for defense mechanisms in plants. It was recently tested as a fertilizer that can help plants develop healthy immune responses, and have a much better yield and life expectancy. The EPA regulates chitin for agricultural use. Chitosan is derived from chitin, which is used as a biocontrol elicitor in agriculture and horticulture."<br /><br />Really only the first sentence is significant, but I felt it would be better if I put the sentence in its proper context, to be fair.<br />With this information in mind, it seems appropriate then that WoodMan's Leaf Shield, his primary form of defense (and a darn good one from what I've heard), would be made out of some form of chitin. <br />Just my two cents. Again.<br />(I got the article from Wikipedia's article on chitin. :P )cccd-erckiehttp://cccd-erckie.deviantart.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-45686571726083717762010-02-10T07:46:55.480-06:002010-02-10T07:46:55.480-06:00No you had it right. If I'm not mistaken, chit...No you had it right. If I'm not mistaken, chitin is the material that makes up a insect's exoskeleton. It's suprisingly tough, and is a pretty good choice of material for WoodMan's Leaf Shield, since Titananium, ceramic or not, would be too heavy to be suspended in mid air, electromagnetic field or no.<br />But really now, are we going to get into a debate of Ceratanium vs. Ceramic chitin? :\<br />Speaking of WoodMan, my varification word is "apple." :3cccd-erckiehttp://cccd-erckie.deviantart.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-26899828473369237442010-02-09T19:22:54.589-06:002010-02-09T19:22:54.589-06:00But chitin IS a polymer found in bugs and stuff......But chitin IS a polymer found in bugs and stuff...aww, screw it.

Plus, chitin is found in mny places around nature. lol<br /><br />Also, that would also explain why Wood Man is still weak to Atomic Fire.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-60705636351077603712010-02-09T17:05:51.557-06:002010-02-09T17:05:51.557-06:00I like how Ariga explains away the relatively sill...I like how Ariga explains away the relatively silly idea of a robot made of wood by saying he was built with camouflage in mind. I'm sorta surprised that never occurred to me.<br /><br />Is it worth mentioning they used "Ceramic Chitin" instead of "Ceramic Titanium?"Enziohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10155129964324823831noreply@blogger.com
