" So his Meta Crafting is actually limited to available information ? Does it break the law of conservation, by creating items without the need for pre-existing materials the way Bradley Hargrave did ? What about his ability to "create any thought or superpower" ? It seems to point towards the metaphysical side of MC, which contrasts with Akira's materialist theme."

Actually, Akira's AR was never limited to just materials. I'd actually never intended for Evolving Absorbing Replication to have that limit -- it was just poor wording on my part. His EAR essentially works like Hargrave's Data Warping -- same principle, basically.

" Spaceships with the ability to absorb stars ? You sure you got the scales right ? ^ ^; That seems to suggest an impossibly huge size for the ships, or on the contrary some way to compress the stars to an infinitesimal fraction of their original size, which would probably come with its own share of massive physical complications and special countermeasures."

With Akira's abilities and scientific expertise, the whole Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale trope becomes a joke. The process of creating ships with such fantastic capabilities involves Akira programming his powers to extend to whatever he crafts. So his rule bending can also be extended to anything he creates, allowing for machines that just laugh in the face of physics.

Also, stars don't particularly have to be big, just like black holes don't have to be big.

Sorry for the late reply! Real life has been keeping my free time a little restricted, with my job and the lack of internet and all. Though everything's good now.
