Discussion - Tyki's power

This has been bothering me for a while, so I've finally decided to bring it up here. If it's been discussed already, forgive me, since I've come into this fandom somewhat late.


Tyki only ever tells Allen of his ability to choose to pass through anything of this world (also translated as anything of god's creation, I believe). But when he snaps and rejects the atmosphere around Allen—which isn't exactly him choosing not to touch something—Road tells Lenalee he has the power to choose from, or manipulate, all creation.

I'm assuming it's this ability that he uses when he switches from his White form to his Black form in the beginning of the manga, when his glasses disappear and his clothes change. What I'm really curious about is what happens to the material things he chooses to "manipulate." When his clothes change, is he just rejecting their existence altogether? That could be the case when his White clothes disappear, but where does his suit come from? He can't bring things into existence, that's Jasdevi's ability. So does the suit exist somewhere else? He wouldn't be creating something out of thin air, but bringing something tangible to him. Which would make it seem he could produce anything he wanted, as long as it already existed. Which in turn would mean he could reject anything he wanted, as long as it existed. Like people. Allen would be an exception because of his parasitic Innocence, the only thing Tyki can't directly use his powers on.

Does this make sense? I'm interested in other people's opinions. I'm thinking, if Tyki could just choose to get rid of non-parasitic exorcists, it'd sure be a quick and easy way to handle things, but it would take all the fun out of killing them, which is what he gets the most pleasure from. And the Tease, he keeps them in his body, they multiply after eating humans, so they're things that already exist, it isn't as though he's producing them himself intangible, I should say, to be clear.

Thoughts! Opinions! I want them.

sorry about that I made a mistake

lol who knows what they would look like, maybe Koi fish? but that wouldn't do.

Also it is very easy for Tyki to kill non-parasitic exorcists thus how he killed Daisya although he doesn't show his full potential until fighting against Allen.

Well, going along with your ideas, if Tyki can manipulate creation then maybe the fabrics that make his clothes don't disappear. It's possible that he just changes the fabric into another kind. Therefore, he isn't rejecting anything.
While Tkyi was fighting Allen, he was able to "walk" on air. Air is a part of creation, so he could be manipulating the air by solidifying it.
So saying, he's not actually producing anything just changing things to fit his needs.
Sorry if some of this doesn't really make sense. My mind tends to jump around. (I end up confusing myself soemtimes.^^)

He probably manipulates atoms from the glasses into clothes too... err... possibly because the "black" clothes seem to need more fabric? XD

Hmm, that's definitely something to think about. I didn't really think about the clothes-change before... more chalking it up to It Looks Cool Therefore It Works Without Being Questioned. I like this line of thought, though... Interesting! :D



On sort-of-related note, I this reminds me of a crack-y theory hypothesis I came up with months ago, though that one was based on accepting/rejecting and the unlikely possibility that I remembered something right from high school physics and biology.

If we see because our eyes register photons bouncing off of or being emitted by things around us, and Tyki Mikk can affect anything in the natural world (which would include photons unless they're secretly Innocence), then could Tyki choose to phase through / reject photons... and effectively turn invisible?

You didn't have to take both? Lucky! Thanks!

I'm only a couple years out, but I had to take four years of science I'll never use except for crack theories. =_= A-And your icon is adorable. Yay America~ :D

In the chapter where Tyki was first revealed as a Noah, wasn't it the Earl who brought him his clothes?
