>It has never been said to be the case That Fuji always has his Haki on. Fuji cut his eyes out for a reason. As far as we know he has it on when it’s necessary.
> As far as Big Mom. That’s a theory. One that doesn’t have any actual basis other than she has tough skin. She’s just an insanely strong human being with out of this world power and when she goes into a state of trauma, her defenses go down and she becomes vulnerable.
>Hak IS life energy. It’s something everyone has and if you abuse it it can kill you. Just not everyone can control it. It’s basically just like chakra from Naruto.
>Haki has always been dependent on mental condition. You have to focus and concentrate to properly hone and use it. This has been shown throughout the series from Luffy, Zoro, Koby. etc.

Its usually people who try to find parallels with other power systems from different manga that have a problem with haki.
Like the OP. "unlike Nen"
I do not give a single shit about Nen. HxH is overhyped garbage and Nen is a horrible plot device that can do whatever the fuck the author wants at any point in time with no restrictions whatsoever. Its already bad for Nen that has a lose definition. Then in comes the SPECIALIZATION TYPE and shit hits the fan hard. You are only fond of the ad-hoc explanations that the author throws out to justify his horrible creation.
BM uses CoA subconsciously. This does not mean that BMs CoA is active permanently. It may only trigger if shes about to get harmed. She is also supposed to be a beast. Her having unnaturally high haki reservers would be a non-issue story wise.
Fujis CoO is also just a very basic level. He senses people or objects. This is really the absolute most basic form of CoO. It should therefore not be very draining. After all, this form is active near permanently for everyone who has it. WB had it on while he slept. Having this version on at all times is the bare minimum requirement to not get caught off guard by sneak attacks.

H
Try to see haki similar to Demon Slayer breathing. People can mantain a constant use of haki all the time but not that strong. When they really want it to be strong than they start to lose that reserve.
For example Big Mom's durability. When Luffy went G4 she used more haki on her arm to block the attack.

Which type of Haki? Haki is one = Will it does not matter which type in terms of cancelling or blocking etc because its all the same its how its used is different according to users affinity and nature etc etc. At least that is my understanding of it so far. And it make sense to me.. only few can project their haki into others aka exuding their will on others CoC blabla whatever.
other than that yes its a free card for oda and you are correct i am with you on that stance that the moment oda explains it he won't be able to change/add/fix or whatever.

It can change ones body. It can become any material with any property. It can also be stored in object and activated by an action to run a CD player or w/e. It is almost sentient.
Dude you are tripping if you honestly believe its consistent.
It is consistent in one way only and that is that it can do whatever the fuck the author wants or needs at any point in time.
If you call haki garbage then Nen is a huge steaming pile of manure.

Dude, you’re a clown. That’s not being inconsistent. That’s expanding the possibilities of a magic system, as the audience and characters learn more about it. Togashi does it. Sanderson does it. Gege does it. Even Oda does it.
Changing one’s body - Manipulation is literally what it says on the tin can. One of its uses being the ability to warp one’s body. Enhancement can just enhance muscle mass or size.
Become any material with any property - That’s literally Conjuration, something that was known since Heaven’s Arena and Yorknew. Creating materials requires image training. Imposing any property is a matter of desire and Nen Contract.
It can also be stored in object and activated by an action to run a CD player - Are you high? Be honest. Because this was literally the first use of Nen, with Hisoka’s cards. Then Illumi’s needles. Then Gido’s tops. Then Ging’s tape. This is the absolute worst point you could use to badmouth Nen.

He does. And his magic system is designed to be FUCKING EVERYTHING. Investiture is mass, its energy, its sentient, its inactive, its everything.
What Sanderson does in his books is not any better than Nen. Its basically the same.
"It was used in the manga early so you can not use it as an argument against it."
Lmao.
Nen is not being consistent. It has so much leeway that ANYTHING GOES. That is the opposite of consistency. The only thing Nen can not do is the same that Investiture can not do. Backwards time travel.
Very offensive, I know.

If Nen followed “ANYTHING GOES” we would be seeing shit like time travel or black holes. There is an entire system to Nen that dictates many abilities must have self imposed rules.
It’s okay if you don’t like how Nen is written. It’s okay if you don’t like Nen abilities. But don’t act like Nen or Investiture aren’t consistent. I don’t know why you’re trying to badmouth other magic systems in a thread about Haki.
