Pro tip: Ditch anime power scaling for better discussions

I used to waste hours arguing about which character would win in a battle. It never got us anywhere. I noticed these fights are all about fake rules. So, I began to look at the bigger ideas and how people in the show learn. Now my conversations are about why the plot works. A pal told me how nasty these arguments can be, and that clicked. By steering clear of those arguments, I get more from anime forums. This quick shift made a big difference.
