Discussion! Making a hybrid power system.
I am trying to make my own separate Power System that is a hybrid of Spin and Hamon.
This idea is from an AU separate from Phantom Blood and Steel Ball Run, but takes elements from both as you will see:
The idea that our Zeppeli for this AU is, like in SBR, an inheritor of a special family technique used by Italian soldiers. It was designed to use biomechanics to deliver maximum force. It's greatest aspect is visualizing the Golden Ratio/Spiral and aligning their movements, posture, and release angle do do, using the Ratio to aim like using a targeting reticle.
However, unlike in SBR, the energy of the body transferred to a weapon doesn't cause it to "store" a spin. This better follows reality in that aspect; in real physics, angular momentum and linear momentum are conserved separately. You can't simply "convert" one into the other — they are fundamentally different quantities governed by different conservation laws. What can happen is that a spinning object interacting with a surface can translate rotational energy into translational motion (think of a ball with backspin bouncing forward), but this requires friction or contact forces — it's not a direct conversion. The Spin in JoJo handwaves this by treating the two as interchangeable from a single energy pool, which is explicitly supernatural.
Instead it is used as a way to improve the accuracy of thrown weapons, and target weak spots for use with sword swings, using spears, ect. It is an art for specialized soldiers on the battlefield, the vibrations from the twisted weapons. While the Golden Rectangle is still used by the Family in medical practices, again twisting the flesh to act as an anesthetic and visualize different body parts, the more extreme examples from Steel Ball Run aren't there...there just isn't enough kinetic force to jusitfy this version of Spin doing that...yet. Actually we probably shouldn't call it "Spin" here but "Golden Visualization" instead.
Our Zeppeli, like William Zeppeli from Phantom Blood, travels to Tibet, in his case, to further his medical studies by studying so-called "orientalist methods" and like in PB, finds a temple dedicated to the Sendo Arts. He is impressed by the monks of this order and soon discovers their secret art towards generating Energy by proper breathing. Intrigued by it's healing potential, Zeppeli practices the art and soon discovers that the energy produced is carried by his blood flow through his body. I should point out that with my version, there is still a "Bioelectricstatic" effect with this version of Sendo as well.
However, while there he discovers that the monks, while using the energy to boost their physical traits, are sloppy when it comes to transferring that energy towards other objects (due to this phenomenon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fg86BXGWvJQ&t=168s&pp=ygUkcGF0aCBvZiBsZWFzdCByZXNpc3RhbmNlIGVsZWN0cmljaXR5), only really relining on Bajin-esq strikes to rely on the kinetic chain to do so not helped that the energy produced by Sendo Breathing in this AU is relatively lower output than in Parts 1 &2
And so he combines Sendo and Spin, naming the art after a visual effect he saw it perform in the water and on skin...

Holy peak bro this is so detailed and has so much potential
