Too bad the animators and novel writers like to blur the lines between Water and Ice release though. Oh well. It was only called Earth Style in the English dub, so that's basically a mistake on top of a retcon. How do the novel writers blur the lines between water and ice? Don't know much about the novels, so just curious.
