In chapter 138 of the One Punch Man manga, Atomic Samurai deflects a beam fired by Psykorochi here and two pages later, we see several enormous explosions in the background where some of the beams strands were seemingly deflected.
@DarthSpiderr has already calced this feat, but we have been discussing which explosion best describes the explosions, deflagration or airblast? As a new calcer, I have a few questions about how we choose our method here. I understand deflagration quite well- we're calculating how much energy a fireball (deflagration, not detonation) generates. For huge-fire based attacks and other giant combustions, this method works rather well. But DarthSpiderr and I have two questions we would like to discuss before we take this calc to the next OPM CRT.
1.) What kind of explosions are we looking at here? Are they giant fireballs, large smoke clouds or nuclear-like combinations of fireball, smoke and dust (from shockwaves)?
2.) Having determined that, which method would work better here- the standard radius explosion method or deflagration? If neither works, do we have an alternate method that better encapsulates what we are seeing here?
Here's DarthSpiderr's calc: https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/U...flects_many_Psykorochi_beams_at_the_same_time
Any input is appreciated.
