Actually, does anyone get how mini-sharks can survive in blood? .... How are they supposed to breath that?
Beyond in KASU explanation thread, but my thought is-well first: Maro's blood cells would be comparitively larger, big as the shark lets say, so I don't think they'd be stripping oxygen from the cell.
What may have to happen is they get it from the plasma-which is remarkable akin to sea water, and as a similar oxygen solubility (see 1&2).
My thought on the whole shink ray is not that they resize atoms, rather they alter the space between them (3), I would figure reducing the EM fields or something: everything is closer, making the being small, but allowing them to still interact with external matter (this must be true in a sense, or tiny Anis could not use normal air, period)
How this could happen without destroying the atomic bonds in an organism, I don't know, but that's my base theory.
Need to learn to summon particle physicists

how can sharks breath a completely different composition of water on the Leeran homeworld?
Since Aniverse seems to use Earth as a life template (e.g. DNA is DNA), it's fair to guess water is water, that water has dissolved oxygen in it-concentrations are open to speculation- but it's capable of sustaining other organic lifeforms: issue won't be breathing so much as salt balance-but that again could be comparable to Earth Marine (likely is give commonalities of life in the series) and even if not, it's feasible a shark could survive for some time in a different ionic environment. Though probably less than happy.
How did the Anis survive eating whatever food the Arn had on board?
Race of master biologists, I'm sure they could cook up some rations that would keep a generalist alive.
