:::I went ahead and looked up [https://twitter.com/ARMS_Cobutter/status/879896899624484864 the other Tweet in question], and here's what it says: {{ja|腕の状態が、意志に関係なく切り替わる現象が「マスク」により解決。伸びる腕で安定した殴り合いが実現したことで、競技化への気運が急速に高まることになる。|Ude no jōtai ga, ishi ni kankei naku kirikawaru genshō ga `masuku' ni yori kaiketsu.

With this stability, outstretched arms can punch cleanly, so the motivation to compete rapidly increased." In other words, at least by the Japanese text, the mask actually controls the ''state'' of the arms (''ude no jōtai''), either regular human arms or coiled ARMS. Putting on the mask just causes them to be coiled all the time. The English text seems to have used a less literal translation, so I think that's likely the deciding factor here... ~ [[User:Serena Strawberry|<span style="color: #e68;">'''Serena Strawberry'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Serena Strawberry|talk]]) 22:40, July 1, 2020 (EDT) | :::I went ahead and looked up [https://twitter.com/ARMS_Cobutter/status/879896899624484864 the other Tweet in question], and here's what it says: {{ja|腕の状態が、意志に関係なく切り替わる現象が「マスク」により解決。伸びる腕で安定した殴り合いが実現したことで、競技化への気運が急速に高まることになる。|Ude no jōtai ga, ishi ni kankei naku kirikawaru genshō ga `masuku' ni yori kaiketsu.

:With all that in mind, I re-added the info you mentioned. It admittedly makes it a bit ramble-y, and could probably be cleaned up further, but the gist of it is that there is evidence that both supports and contradicts Min Min's human arms in the trailer. We probably won't know until we get something that goes into more depth about what happens when you remove the mask (a potential sequel?). I'm more than willing to hear you out if you have any comments about this, and sorry for the flood of replies. ~ [[User:Serena Strawberry|<span style="color: #e68;">'''Serena Strawberry'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Serena Strawberry|talk]]) 23:17, July 1, 2020 (EDT) | |||
