Just throw everything you can at him. Let's see what he can transmute a flying rock into--then the next rock, then the next. xd

Gotta love Transmutations. domokun
And, I just thought of a lovely weapon based on an old Irish mythological spear; though.. it'd be a damned mess to use. May have to polish it up a tad, but here's the basic concept.Spear [Gàe Bulg]
Translating to "Bellows-Dart", this spear was crafted from the spine of a monstrous sea serpent when found dead; a "Coinchenn". Who exactly picked apart the corpse and crafted the weapon from it, is little known.
However, one couldn't help but agree, it held a demonic quality within it.
At first glance, it's an ordinary, steel javelin; though, obviously, it's not -truely- "steel". However, the true danger occurs when the tip but pierces even the most outter level of flesh.
That one point, expands into countless barbs in the victim's body. Needless to say, more often than not - they would die, horribly. A drawback to this, is that, the only way to truely remove the javelin & allow it to regain it's original form, would be.. to cut the flesh off of the victim, until the weapon could be withdrawn.
Quoting the legend in which it first appeared & it's first use,
"In the Táin Bó Cuailnge, Cúchulainn received the spear after training with the great warrior master Scathach in Scythia. She taught him and his foster-brother, Ferdiad, everything the same, except she only taught the Gáe Bulg feat to Cuchulainn. He then used it in single combat against Ferdiad. They were fighting in a ford, and Ferdiad had the upper hand;
Cúchulainn's charioteer, Láeg, floated the Gáe Bulg down the stream to his master, who cast it into Ferdiad's body, piercing the warrior's armor and "coursing through the highways and byways of his body so that every single joint filled with barbs." Needless to say, Ferdiad died soon after. Cúchulainn also killed his son, Connla, with the spear. In both instances, it was used a last resort, as once thrown it proved invariably fatal."

Typhoon -The words in your signature remind me of a song I heard on the opening of Bleach...
Don't know the name of it, but are those words from a Japanese song in your sig? o.o

Typhoon - Well, I have to agree with you there. o.o
It's definitely my favourite opening out of that entire anime. o:
And probably my favourite out of any anime. o.o Not too many animes actually choose good music for their openings..>_>

This would be the one Typhoon's talkin' about. This was a great opening... although I really do like the current filler OP by the Beat Crusaders. 3nodding

Black: I hear yeh'. X3 Though, it depends. I like Samurai Champloo's lyrics, for example.
Anonymoo: Here's one with ALL FOUR OPENINGS - and lyriiiics. domokun And sadly, I've not gotten to watch too much Bleach; need to get back into it again.

Niiiiiiice, Typhoon.
Read the manga sometime--it just started picking up again. 3nodding
Edit: Also, the anime filler's pretty damn good, too. I was very surprised.

Typhoon - I've watched up t' episode 90. XD I can't find any more episodes though...x_x
I think there's a few more out, but for some reason I can't seem to locate them.
I've only watched Samurai Champloo maybe..Twice?
It seems like a good show, but I don't really watch tv all that much. I might get around to watching it more one of these days.
Anonymooo - Yep, that'd be the one. :3
It's such a good opening, and it fits that anime very well.

Heh, can do, Anonymooo. Perhaps, I should watch the anime too. A good torrent'd serve me well on that.
Hakkai, agreed. I loved the art style involved too.
And Black, definetely.. try and pick up on Champloo. It seems "plotless" to some, but it's got a very clear-cut, yet surprisingly deep story. The characters really develope from when you meet them, and I can't lie; the art style & music's just damned lovely. Plus, the anime's got a sense of style that most honestly cannot compete with.

When I'd first heard that song, Hakkai, I was very disappointed and found it kinda cheesy.
And then it grew on me, and I was cheering when it came on in later episodes. 3nodding
Samurai Champloo was a great watch, too. In some ways, I honestly like it better than Cowboy Bebop. It's got that same One Piece feeling where not a whole lot HAPPENS in terms of story, but the characters develop and actually make you like them. 3nodding
