"atari" is the noun form = "a hit" "atare" is the command form = "hit!" As a word just by itself, "atare" would be what you say before, and "atari" would be what you say after the action/event. Quote:

As a bonus, another example of this would be part of the "mantra" ability from One Piece, or one possible use of the Dragon's Eye from Tenjo Tenge (eg chapter 17 - I think the anime messed up the scene somewhat). |

Unfortunately Destiny came out far too soon and neither Fukuda nor his staff had prepared themselves fully and Kira got his own "ping". (I blame that on lack of creativity - due to stress)

I believe tetsuo69 is asking for Newtype abilities that doesn't require technology. And the best example would probably be in ZZ where Camille practically directed Judau and a few others in that one battle against Psyco Mk. II telepathically (I forgot the details). Of course that could be attributed to Camille's power (as in the potential of newtypes) and the circumstances of that battle.

One thing though - Fukuda from his comments clearly considered certain character Newtypes, however, one aspect he made in regards to them (Mu and Rau are the last remaining ones) was later invalidated. Do you believe that because of that overridden aspect, Fukuda has changed his mind and does not consider those characters Newtypes anymore? Considering he has expanded the amount of people seen to be capable of of their abilities (abilities like those of Newtypes, accompanied by the classic Newtype ping, total coincidence though right?) and had them following a matching pattern in the growth of those abilities? |

Kira's not a Newtype...in the UC sense.
In the CE sense where Mwu, Rau and assumably Rey are considered to be NT...yeah, I'd say he is. He "senses" people, and can easily adapt to and fight with the DRAGOON system which seems to be a CE Newtype thing. Maybe there was more to being the "Ultimate Coordinator" than simply having no genetic defects, who knows. And seeing as Kira's father worked for Al Da Fllaga doing genetic enhancement, it doesn't seem that farfetched to think he did the same to his own child, the one he wanted to be "perfect". Of course, it's all speculation. |

well ... I've never seen a UC serie, but what I heard of Newtype is kind of ridiclous^^
however ... there were flashback during the fight between kira and shinn ... whose flashback was it? I suppose it was kira's but why did he has a flashback of him and shinn when I shouldn't sense shinn? was it even a flashback or should it just be reminder for the audience? *lol* I think ... yes ;D |

Hmm, while it's true that the term "newtype" has never been used in any official CE publication afaik, I wouldn't really hold it against those who choose to use it even if it is technically inaccurate.
To begin with, calling people like Rau, Mwu, Rey, Kira, Prayer, etc "people who possess superhuman spatial awareness and a psychic connection to one another" is terribly verbose. Especially when there's a familiar word that can take the place of that without too many problems. Moreover, it's not really just an issue with English speaking fandom either. I've seen these characters referred to as newtypes in Japanese forums as well, and that's not really that surprising considering it's also done in some anime magazines. (Bear in mind though that under normal circustances, a magazine article of column wouldn't really classify as an official source) I've seen magazines that have apparently felt the need to refer to Rey as a newtype and iirc, there was even a brief column that basically amounted to "CE's newtypes are pretty weak compared to the originals".

Tetsuo, you know I'm not an "anti-SEED fan", I love SEED, but nothing at all suggests that the DRAGOONs are mind controlled, especially when the official word is that they're "wirelessly controlled" with the quantum computers aboard the mobile suit - the superior spatial awareness required to use them is so that one can place and use them effectively while still being able to focus on the battle, I reckon. With Legend, that's not even required anymore - I guess those DRAGOONs or the computer controlling them have a higher level of autonomy.
