Talk:Enryu's Thorn/@comment-5135787-20160513120456/@comment-16674955-20160524154125

It's because Line didn't realise that 가시 was referring to thorns, so they went and translated it "needle" for some reason. Thecmpny knew about the thorn because in one of the blogposts, SIU quotes lyrics a song which name IS thorn as a reference.

SIU did say that the thorn reacted differently depending on who is using it but I don't think it proves that there are different owners of different pieces. He mighht have tried to say that the thorn was subsequently (is it a word?) different than the way Baam uses it. The thorn was "dead" after all, and the workshop tried to "resurrect" it by transforming it into an ignition weapon, implying it was not one in the first place (or that it was no longer one, as the soul inside probably died as it/Enryu killed the guardian). He also said that the thorn wssn't fully activated yet, something a few characters have said as well.

Maybe in Enryuu's hands it was a spear or a needle, but in Baam's hands it's just something that amplifies his control over shinsoo (as a wave controller, it would work like a wand, or like the supporting lighthouse in the sense that it strengthens him).

Edit: Now that I think about it, was Baam's attack something he copied from Ran (one of the Maschenny's spear techniques) or did he throw the thorn (spear-like) on Reflejo at the end of the fight? I don't think we have any answer yet...
