Would ruryoku work like that as well on gren maju da eiza?
Ruryoku only halves the ATK, not the Original ATK. Shrink would make Gren Maju Da Eiza half, Ruryoku would make it half of it's current ATK. Copy Cat would have 0 ATK with Shrink, and half ATK with Ruryoku.
Gren Maju Da Eiza has a continuous effect, not one that would give it a set original attack. It would be unaffected by both Shrink and Ruryoku, or in the case stated above, the attack would be halved, and its effect would recalculate, returning the attack to normal after Shrink or Ruryoku resolve. Either way, the end result is that its attack is unaffected.
My sources are above, let's see yours. ^_^
Your source above is from which I made that statement, also from the wording of the card.

Jevan R. H. Divinitive
-- If “Shrink” affects a monster with ATK that varies due to its Continuous Effect, like “Gren Maju Da Eiza” or “King of the Skull Servants”, that monster’s ATK will be halved. If its ATK changes due to its own effect in the same turn, recalculate the effect of "Shrink" based on the new original ATK. When the effect of “Shrink” wears off, that monster’s ATK will be calculated as normal.
Do you even understand what that means? You're to automatically recalculate the attack of the monster with its own continuous effect from the new original attack. "This card's ATK and DEF are each equal to the number of your removed from play cards x 400". That is a constant continuous effect. If it were a set attack that would bring its attack to 0 forever, like Montage Dragon, then it would be more like "When this card is summoned, its attack becomes the number of your removed from play cards x 400", As also shown above in your post. It's simple wording and common sense. Gren Maju Da Eiza has an attack of "?". And from your ruling, Shrink brings its attack to 0, then the attack is recalculated from its own effect, returning the attack to normal. It does nothing in the end.

Another example. You have Buster Blader and your opponent has a total of 7 Dragon-type monsters on their field and graveyard. An attack total of (original)2600+(continuous effect gain)3500 = 6100. Your opponent plays Shrink. That would cut the original attack in half, making it 1300. (New original attack)1300+(continuous effect gain)3500 = 4800. Same principle. The only difference is, since Gren Maju Da Eiza's original attack is ?, the entire attack is brought to 0, and then you recalculate its attack again for its own continuous effect.
Read it carefully because you read wrong. I've highlighted somethings you missed it seems.
