You know for my Robin the intention was for Robin herself to be the main focus and second was for the goddess theme and then finally using the Shigan. If you notice it in that order it was done as I intended.



Just gonna copy paste this bit here taken directly from the doc

" The challenge is to basically for you to make a drawing or animation of a Hana Hana no mi user using Rokushiki techniques that utilizes the abilities of the devil fruit in a creative way. "



Does my entry not fit that description exactly?

Hana hana user (Robin) using Rokushiki (Shigan) that utilizes the devil fruit in a creative way (Giant Goddess with a thousand arms from the sky)? I don't understand how that's unimaginative; I made something new up not from the doc of countless existing abilities that he hadn't thought of yet. Just imagine it in the setting if Oda drew it himself as cannon. It's something akin to Moria's Shadows Asgard in scale and timing if Robin were to be in a 1v1 fight finishing with a grand technique.



It's not just a random amalgam of all techniques ungracefully combined, they're just flailing their arms and legs at the same time that just looks chaotic and messy. Why do you think Oda didn't combine all of his techniques into one but instead made a whole new one like Rokuougan for people that mastered rokushiki? It is essentially the same ability in definition a mastery of all 6 creates a new different technique a combination you could say. Can you imagine if Lucci just did all 6 at once instead of Rokuougan in the show and it didn't exist? It has less impact and is less powerful than a new upgraded or grander technique would have had because it's more creative to make something completely new than just trying to make something else from mashing up existing things, that's easier. If you want to be exact about the description of the contest combining Rokushiki techniques is not using the devil fruit in a "creative way". Basically I saw the challenge as how would a hana hana user (Robin) creatively use the rokushiki techniques with her powers to make something different that they had not seen anything similar in the series or weren't expecting; a few other entries also met the criteria.



Barring my own entry I like the giant prisoner one and the daisy shuriken, the former is something on a grander scale it's exactly what Robin would do if she could, the technique to grapple and restrain them in a submission and then use shigan with her devil fruit enhancing it fits the contest description to a T. It's similar to Rob Lucci using his sharper claws from his devil fruit transformation for a modified piercing range shigan in terms of creativity and upgrading a technique instead of making a bad fusion of techniques. The latter is similar to the first idea I had in mind to create a rankyaku flower with multi leg kick, we've seen flying slash type projectile rankyaku before so evolving that and upgrading the technique into a larger different shape projectile following the character's flower theme is a natural step.



At the end of the day it's not a vote so whatever he determines is the most accurate to his intended purpose for the contest. Accepting entries almost a month after deadline huh? I would have waited had I known that would be the case.
