![]() Unfortunately for him, his greatest technique is ironically his greatest weakness as both of his defeats are the result of him getting sucked into the Dead Zone by Gohan. The portal functions exactly like a real life black hole, drawing everything in with immense gravitational force and anything that gets sucked in is trapped there permanently. Dragon Ball Z: Dead Zone has Garlic Jr., whose Signature Move is to open a portal to the titular Dead Zone.Havoc in Darker than Black got the power to instantly vacuumize large volumes, with fatal results to people and some constructions in an affected area.In Cardcaptor Sakura Movie 2 The Sealed Card, The Nothing card has the power to make anything she hits not exist.Despite the name, the power she has at her disposal is closer in function to this, rotting everything in the vicinity and turning it all to nothingness. In Brave10, Isanami is the Brave of Darkness.When he swallows an opponent, the victim is stored in the void dimension. Baura can enter and travel through a void-like dimension, allowing him to disappear and reappear through any surface. ![]() Bleach Bount arc: The Bount Sawatari's doll is Baura, a huge fish-like monster.After the time skip, he can combine this with Mana Zone to cast Dark Moon, forming a space where he chooses which spells are absorbed. In Black Clover, Yami Sukehiro's Dark Magic can absorb spells, especially from Light Magic, by forming small black holes or through dark spells.Arata: The Legend: Yataka has a Hayagami that represents this power as stated by Tsukuyo. ![]() A good example of the damage he can do? Throughout the course of the series, he halved a metric ton of peoples' bodies (or just made holes appear in their heads), and then even gave the same treatment to the greater part of a MOUNTAIN. The completely cracked painter Yura (who started out physically repulsive and somehow through Art Evolution became rather stunning, despite poor dental care) can create bubbles that blow up and seem to operate similarly, but when the aforementioned best friend character scatters his Swiss-cheesing ability around the stuff he hits just ceases to be.Later on he ditches his physical body, making him Nigh-Invulnerable. The estranged best friend who isn't the Big Bad, exactly, but still a big threat and main quest object has void-type, negation and unbeing powers that manifest primarily as the ability to put holes in things.However it's usually considered Non-Elemental because it (appropriately) lacks elemental traits. Interestingly, Void is sometimes considered the Fifth Classical Element ( not to be confused with the Fifth Element), particularly in a universe that uses the Void Between the Worlds. It can also be the result of a Yin-Yang Bomb, in which case it is equally likely to be found in the hands of someone more heroically inclined. Since many creation myths involve creation from nothing, some writers have the power of the void grant the power to create as well as destroy, circling back around to Frickin' Laser Beams of Pure Energy, or even The Power of Creation.įor works that are Eastern-inclined, they may be taking the idea of nothingness as described by Buddhism, "Mu", or the 5th Japanese element, "空/Kuu" ("Void/Sky").įor obvious reasons, the Power of the Void is frequently the gimmick of Straw Nihilists, Omnicidal Maniacs and outright Eldritch Abominations. And sometimes it goes in the opposite direction. Sometimes, this also involves partial or total Cessation of Existence as a physical trait (in the partial case, functioning much like an Absurdly Sharp Blade in that it "cuts" by removing physical matter, and in the latter case simply sucks an object or person into nothingness). Powers over cold and darkness come up often as well - this makes sense, since they are technically defined by a lack of energy. Other works are better about portraying this erasing objects and unfortunate people from existence, manipulating black holes, and draining Life Energy. How are you going to make cool fight scenes when a character's power is the ability to control nothing? In many cases, this is by giving him lasers, energy blasts, and various other powers that other characters already have, with minor cosmetic changes to show that they come from the Void. When darkness isn't dark enough, the only thing that can properly express your morally dubious badassery is the Power of the Void- power over nothingness. ![]() Some characters use the Power of Darkness to show off how cool they are.
