Extinct Animal Pristichampus

Introduction of extinct animals in Cage of Eden manga

Pristichampus

Debut: Chapter 65
 
Pristichampus was an ancient crocodile that adapted to hunting on land. Its long legs made it agile on the ground, making it a ferocious predator that would chase down land mammals who would then become its prey. They can grew to approximately three metres in length.

Pristichampsus had heavily armoured skin, and long limbs suggesting a cursorial habitus. It also had hoof-like toes, suggesting that it lived more on land than in the water, and that it therefore probably hunted terrestrial mammals. Pristichampsus's teeth were ziphodont - laterally compressed, sharp, and with serrated edges. Due to their similarity to those of certain theropod dinosaurs they were initially mistaken for theropod teeth, leading paleontologists to believe that some non-avian dinosaurs survived the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction event.

Clairvoyance - Special Ability in Noblesse

Talking about special ability in Noblesse Manhwa

Clairvoyance

Clairvoyance is a form of ability that is used to expand your senses in many ways. And so to gain information about an object, person, location orical event through means other than the known human senses, a form of extra-sensory perception. This ability have been only used by Seira.

By having full concentration the user has the ability to expand its senses and also to the transfer of information that is both contemporary to, and hidden from, the clairvoyant. It is very different from telepathy in that the information is said to be gained directly from an external physical source, rather than being transferred from the mind of one individual to another.

In the battle between Frankenstein and Rael, Seira expands her senses to search the area for humans to prevent causalities. She is yet, the only known Noble, who users this ability.

Special Ability - High-Speed Regeneration

Special ability in Noblesse manhwa - High-Speed Regeneration

High-Speed Regeneration is a supplementary ability possessed by M-21. Yet, it is still unknown if other races have this kind of ability.

High-Speed Regeneration allows a person to recover from any damage that they sustain by causing them to heal at an increased rate, closing the wounds on their body and causing any limbs that they have lost to grow back. 

While High-Speed Regeneration is indeed a powerful ability, it is not without its flaws. Despite the extent to which it can heal the body, internal organs such as the brain cannot be regenerated; if such irreparable damage is sustained, the rest of the body can continue to regenerate, though to no avail. In addition, if the body is damaged before it has the chance to heal, or if enough damage is inflicted on it at once, then it can be destroyed. It is shown that, after getting attack by the Nobles, who has usual imbued power, M-21 regeneration has slowed to a distant level.

Extinct Animal: Bos Primigenius

<Extinct Animals in Cage of Eden>

Bos Primigenius


Debut: Chapter 47


Bos Primigenius was an ancestor of the present day cows or cattle. It lived in small herds on grassy plains or in the forests. It had a deep connection to humans, and you can also see them drawn on the walls of the lascaux caves in France.


Bos primigenius was a type of large wild cattle which inhabited Europe, Asia and North Africa, but is now extinct; it survived in Europe until 1627. Aurochs bulls are believed to have reached a height of 1.8 meters at the withers, and the cows to have been about 1.5 meters, displaying considerable sexual dimorphism.

The aurochs was regarded as a challenging hunting quarry animal, contributing to its extinction. The last recorded aurochs, a female, died in 1627 in the Jaktorów Forest, Poland, and her skull is now the property of the Livrustkammaren museum in Stockholm, Sweden.

Domestication of bovines occurred in several parts of the world but at roughly the same time, about 8,000 years ago, possibly all derived from the aurochs. In 1920, the Heck brothers, who were German biologists, attempted to recreate aurochs. The resulting cattle are known as Heck cattle or Reconstructed Aurochs, and number in the thousands in Europe today. However, they are genetically and physiologically distinct from aurochs. The Heck brothers' aurochs also have a pale yellow dorsal stripe, instead of white.

Extinct Animal: Glyptodon

<Extinct Animals in Cage of Eden>

Glyptodon

Debut: Chapter 27

Glyptodon ("grooved or carved tooth") was a giant armadillo that lived on grassy plains. It was a slow moving omnivore, but it had the ability to protect itself by hiding its head and tail inside its 2 cm thick shell.

Glyptodon belong to the family Glyptodontidae, lived during the Pleistocene Epoch. It was roughly the same size and weight as a Volkswagen Beetle, though flatter in shape. With its rounded, bony shell and squat limbs, it superficially resembled turtles, and the much earlier dinosaurian ankylosaur, as an example of the convergent evolution of unrelated lineages into similar forms. Glyptodon is believed to have been an herbivore, grazing on grasses and other plants found near rivers and small bodies of water.

Bleach 513 - The Dark Moon Stroke

summary:

Left alone, Byakuya notes that Ichigo did not answer his request before leaving. Reflecting on this, he contemplates that this is typical of Ichigo, and that he already knows, even without an answer. He expresses that he will leave it to Ichigo, before finally dying, his Zanpakuto crumbling away.

Haschwald steps towards Ichigo, but Juhabach stops him and tries to reason with the Shinigami. He praises him for breaking out of Quilge's jail, but points out that he is heavily injured, asking if he really intends to fight him in such a state. Paying Juhabach no heed, Ichigo asks him if he is the enemy leader. Juhabach answers that he is, but at the same time he is not. Agitated, Ichigo shouts at him, demanding to know if he is the one who made a mess out of Soul Society. Juhabach confirms that he is.

In response, Ichigo flares his Reiatsu. Juhabach tells Haschwald that there is no choice but to destroy the Shinigami. Ichigo attacks him with a Getsuga Tenshō, but the attack proves ineffective. Juhabach effortlessly pins him down and stabs him through the neck with his sword. Remarking that Ichigo is still breathing, he tells Haschwald to take him back to their castle so that they can resuscitate him and recruit him into their army. As he turns away however, he realizes that Ichigo is still conscious, and that his sword has been halted by Blut Vene. Ichigo then swings his sword at him, tearing up the ground around them with his Reiatsu.

Oreimo Second Season to Air Next April

The second season of Oreimo will begin airing in April 2013. The announcement was originally made at the stage of Dengeki Bunko Autumn Festival 2012 by the main cast and related staff. And unlike the first season which was produced by AIC Build, the second season will be responsible by A-1 Pictures. Aniplex explained the reason for the studio change that AIC Build has been busy in producing other titles. Also, producer Kashiwagi Shinichiro said the original staff members will be gathered together for the project.

Oreimo is a Japanese light novel series written by Tsukasa Fushimi, with illustrations provided by Hiro Kanzaki. There have been 11 volumes published since August 2008. A manga adaptation drawn by Sakura Ikeda was serialized in ASCII Media Works’ Dengeki G’s Magazine. A 12-episode anime adaptation produced by AIC aired in Japan between October and December 2010.

JManga Ally with Kodansha

The digital manga site JManga has added Kodansha manga to its lineup. This is a pretty big deal for that company, insofar as Kodansha is the largest publisher in Japan. In typical JManga fashion, they load it up right away with a lot of books; their first set is all older titles that were released in English under the Del Rey imprint before Kodansha set up its own North American arm, Kodansha Comics, and took over the Del Rey titles. None of these books is being published by Kodansha Comics, so they are only available via digital or secondhand copies. And they are giving away a free volume: If you sign up with JManga and Tweet the Kodansha news, they will give you 500 points, which is what a typical volume of manga costs on JManga.

What makes this interesting is that Kodansha Comics has its own app, although it hasn’t been updated in quite a while. Their app carries newer series such as Fairy Tail and Arisa (which launched as Del Rey titles) and Cage of Eden (which launched as a Kodansha Comics title). Will the two digital services merge, or will JManga keep the old-but-good stuff and Kodansha update its app?

Soul Weapon Ragnarok

Introduction about soul weapon in Noblesse manhwa!

Ragnarok

Debut: Chapter 179

Ragnarok is a longsword. Its initial owner is unclear and currently in the hands of The Lord.

Rai retrieves it from the temple connected by a passage to the basement of his mansion. Ragnarok - 'a sword with a strength so terrifying that the humans have come to associate it with the end of the world' - is the previous Lord's soul weapon. It seems he intended to leave it in Rai's care and made the place off-limits until its landlord came back. For as yet undisclosed reason Rai can't use this Soul Weapon. Even so the previous Lord was adamant about leaving his Soul Weapon to Rai - even if as decoration. In his encounter with the current Lord, Rai gives his Ragnarok to the Lord. But The Lord questions the gesture of Rai since her father has left this Ragnarok to him, not her. The rightful ownership of it will be clarified with the revelations of the previous Lord.

Extinct Animal Moeritherium

Introduction of extinct animal in Cage of Eden manga!

Moeritherium

Debut: Chapter 27

Moeritherium was the beast from Lake Moeris. They lived during the Eocene epoch. It was an elephant type animal that lived in marshes, shallow rivers, lakes, etc. It was also called the stegodon, but it holds no direct relation to the modern day elephant. It like eating the soft grass and plants by the riverside. Its trunk was about as long as a pig and it had 4 short legs. As it was fat, it moved slowely and most likely couldn't swim fast either, due to its habitats drying up. It went into extinction.

The Moeritherium species were pig-like animals that lived about 37-35 million years ago, and resembled modern tapirs or pygmy hippopotamuses. They were smaller than modern elephants, standing only 70 centimetres high at the shoulder and were about 3 metres long. They are believed to have wallowed in swamps and rivers, filling the ecological niche now filled by the hippopotamus. The shape of their teeth suggest that they ate soft water vegetation.

The shape of the skull suggests that Moeritherium did not have an elephant-like trunk, but it may have had a broad flexible upper lip like a tapir's for grasping aquatic vegetation. The second incisor teeth formed small tusks, although these would have looked more like the teeth of a hippo than a modern elephant.
