The Forbidden Side of Healing Magic: A Thrilling Manga Series

The improper application of healing magic in manga is a common trope that can be found in many fantasy and adventure stories. In these stories, healing magic is often portrayed as a powerful and potentially life-saving ability that can be used to heal wounds, cure diseases, and restore vitality. However, there are instances where healing magic is used in an improper or irresponsible manner, resulting in unintended consequences and negative outcomes. One example of improper healing magic is when it is used indiscriminately or without considering the consequences. In some stories, characters may use healing magic to quickly heal injuries or cure illnesses without taking the time to fully understand the underlying causes or consider the long-term effects. This can lead to situations where the characters become overly reliant on healing magic and disregard the importance of taking proper care of their bodies and health.

Google search for leather carpenter's apron came up with several choices. I doubt if I'd use anyone of them for a Cups and Balls routine. It doesn't cost that much more to buy a pouch specially built for the Cups and Balls (Gary Animal & Gazzo pouches notwithstanding). You can get a good, leather "street pouch" for just at $100 from The Ambitious Card.

I later took out a lot of the holders, I put in and opted for a few simple holders inside, flexible fold down divider and a flat hidden pocket at the back.

This can lead to situations where the characters become overly reliant on healing magic and disregard the importance of taking proper care of their bodies and health. Another common misuse of healing magic is when it is used as a deus ex machina, serving as a convenient plot device to quickly resolve conflicts or save characters from difficult situations. In these instances, healing magic is often portrayed as a magical cure-all that can fix any problem or overcome any obstacle.

Magic cups whers to bug

I am looking at making my first pouch for the cups and balls routine I am currently learning. I can think of what the pouch should kinda be like, but I wandered if anybody has some free designs or patterns I could look at?

Any information would be greatly useful!

Hi, Mark. I reckon if you haven't already done it, do a Google search under the wording "Cups and Balls" and see where that gets you as far a photos goes. Also Youtube under Cups and Balls and see what is being used. The pouches fit into two categories - one group looks like a carpenter's apron, being very wide. The others are like bum bags - fanny bags is the name in USA. The bag needs to look proportionatly suitable on your body when worn. The pockets needs to hang open somewhat so your hand can readily drop in them to a little deeper than wrist height to get out the cups and the balls and 2nd load. Of course the bag/pouch needs to hold all the contents and that will depend on the size of your cups. Take your cups and 2nd load with you when you go looking, because if the bag/pouch can't hold all this well of course it's no use. For the bum-bag type I've used a couple of women's black shoulder bags as starters as I am in the early days of mastering cups and balls. I got the shoulder bags at 2nd hand shops at a very low price. The bags have several dividers sewn in them, from top to bottom, making deep pocket. And they have a closing flap, not zip-top. The shoulder strap may be able to be put around your waist to make a bum bag to be placed at the front of you, or the fastening points may need to be shifted. When being used the top flap of the shoulderbag is opened right back and tucked down between the bag and your waist. My nicest adapted shoulder bag is about 10 inches across the front, 6 inches deep, and a whopping 5 inches thick. I would be dubious about buying any bag/pouch unless you have tried it out for fit beforehand, or it is guaranteed to be returnable if it doesn't suit you personally. What suits you is an indiviual choice, so happy looking and finding. Colin.

I made my own pouch, but just for general magic and have used it for about seven years now (it was made of scrap leather and is still going strong) -so I'm not sure if what I will say is applicable other than generally.

I tend to carry coins,a giant coin, tt, silks, wand, cards, sponge and manipulation balls, and at times either rope and scissors or a small set of rings in it. It's 'organised' and isn't that big (about a foot deep, ten inches across, and three inches in width. I later took out a lot of the holders, I put in and opted for a few simple holders inside, flexible fold down divider and a flat hidden pocket at the back. After finding out that visibility wasn't a problem (even close up), I got rid of the flap I put in front of it.

So even after doing a mock up and testing it, I modified it after time performing.

Consequently, my advice is to make a paper mock up first (heavy card is good) and test it. It'll save expensive mistakes.

Your hand and wrist measurements are critical (allowing about one and half them) as you'll need to acquire and deposit stuff in it without looking cramped. In my experience (depending on what you are doing) one flexible divider (which you can fold down if you don't need it) to stop stuff sliding around is good. Stick your hand into the mock up, do a few slieghts, and see if it works and is practical.

It's true you can't stick a cups in a cardboard mockup without possibly tearing it - but other similar sized objects such as styrofoam cups, large plastic balls, etc. for loads help get the idea.

Next if you can pin the mockup on yourself - check for visibility and angles in a mirror. This helps as well.

So I guess if you build a cheap paper prototype and check it out, you'll see if it works for you. You'll have a good idea what to buy or build that way.

But, having said that, I'd still expect that you'd have to modify it after a while. I'd go with an inexpensive one for a while until you know exactly what you want.

I stitched two nail bags together that I bought at a hardware store with the toughest upholstery thread I could find.

That bag lasted me approx 5-6 months of use on fisherman's wharf before I made enough cash to buy a Frank Starsinic bag. I posted about it somewhere on the Café and I'm sure a search of the Café will bring up that post.

Let's see. I did a search of "gaddy" in username and "pouch" in keywords.

This should be the detailed instructions;

and THIS should be the picture;

Looks good, but wasn't the leather stiff to work with? We have a bag like that at Wal*Mart, but I don't like the way it feels.

You know Gaddy. I use a exactly the same kind of nail poutch that you used. I use normal PF cups so I only use one poutch to hold the final loads, and I wear it on my side. I keep my cups stacked on top. it works great for me and I don't think I could be rough enough to tear it up

my real name is Kevin Harrison

Gaddy's pouch looks great and quite functional. My suggestion is cruise some hardware and craft stores. You will be amazed at the things you can find to modify for your magical neeeds. It is fun to make your own magic apparatus and have pride in what you have made.

Gaddy,
It appears you also have great powers over cats.

Does anyone know of a vendor who sells a leather carpenter's apron that works well for cups and balls?

We make 2 pouches in that "inexpensive" range. The street pouch and the parlor pouch.
2 different styles and $99. The goal was to offer something that would meet or beat anything you could make yourself for the
same price and a way for the beginning busker to try something out without having to over-spend.

Kudos to anyone making their own. anything.
But for those that are trying to make something just to save money, the 2 pouches above were designed for you.

Nothing in the rule book that says a pouch has to be made of leather . I used denim and canvas for mine:

While this may provide a temporary solution, it can cheapen the story and undermine the development of the characters and their abilities. **Furthermore, the improper use of healing magic can also lead to a lack of tension and stakes in the narrative.** If characters can simply be healed of any injury or ailment, it diminishes the sense of danger and urgency that is often necessary to create a compelling story. The risk and consequences associated with physical harm are an important element in many narratives, and when healing magic is misused, it can undermine the tension and impact of these moments. Finally, improper healing magic can also perpetuate unrealistic expectations and misconceptions about health and healing. In some stories, healing magic is portrayed as an easy and effortless solution, giving the impression that all physical and mental ailments can be instantly cured without any effort or sacrifice. This can create unrealistic expectations for readers and viewers, and may also perpetuate harmful beliefs about the nature of health and the importance of self-care. In conclusion, the improper application of healing magic in manga is a common trope that can have negative consequences for the narrative and the portrayal of health and healing. Whether it is used indiscriminately, as a convenient plot device, or to resolve conflicts too easily, the misuse of healing magic can undermine the tension, stakes, and realism of a story. It is important for writers and readers to consider the implications of healing magic and its role in their narratives to ensure a more balanced and impactful storytelling experience..
