    that's crazy shapeshifting

    and regular shapeshifting screws with mass conservation so you know crazy shapeshifting is really crazy
    Envy gets denser when
    he
    shapeshifts.

    are we talking about fullmetal alchemist envy?

    he can do that because he's powered by a thing that explicitly allows you to screw with the laws of physics

    or

    or something

    what am I even talking about right now

    Besides, he only gets more or less dense, he doesn't actually gain/lose mass.

    uh

    no

    as a result of increased density he gains mass

    Well specifically in the show he's shown to be incredibly heavy in his human size, on account of being really dense when he's that small, on account of it later turns out his regular size is fucking enormous.

    I may be misremembering that.

    you are correct about the animes

    if his volume remains constant, yes
    if he appears to shrink, then he could be maintaining the same mass while increasing density

    I'm not saying whether he does or doesn't chance density, but he absolutely could if he wanted to, because he's filled with the red stone/liquid that can violate conservation of mass (which they call equivalent exchange).

    If you wanna go one step FURTHER, it doesn't ACTUALLY violate that, because...
    Human lives, which contain a great deal of applicable energy for mass conversion, are what was exchanged to create the red substance.

    Superman is probably the most inconsistently written character in history.

    But I don't think he can do that normally.

    There is no standard for writing him, really, so whenever you get in a discussion with a diehard Supes fan he can basically be whatever they want him to be.

    And if you have a piece of media where he doesn't fit that bill, hand-waved.

    One more day

    It's a thing they did with Spider-Man a few years back

    To refresh his continuity and unmarry him from MJ without a divorce, they had him sell his marriage to mephisto to keep aunt may from dying

    Even though she's like a million and he just needs to let go already

    It was basically the dumbest thing ever

    But Spidey benefited in the long run I suppose

    Yeah, I guess saying Superman Blue is the only one who can do it is silly.

    Superman Red could do it just as easy.
