Lord Boros Speed Issue still hasn't been resolved.

The CRT ended so why is this headcanon nonsense still on his profile? Again for a thousandth time, none of what is stated on his profile is supported by linked scans:
At least Relativistic+ (Faster than before. Used his latent energy to generate an aura around himself and others that can move them at near lightspeed)
Also, the translation is wrong and misleading, this is official translation.
I'll have to explain it again, so new people might see the issue.
Boros's profile states that his energy moves everything it coats into at near Light Speed, but that isn't what the source actually states. It states:
"I basically resolved the whole question of heat friction by wrapping him in Boros's Energy while he was being launched near the speed of light"
Nowhere does this state that Boros's energy moves everything it's wrapped in at near SOL, it says that he reduced the friction via Boros's energy, big difference.
Saitama was launched into the Moon with the Force, not the energy that magically carried him to the moon, the energy only reduced the friction.

Also, looking at his profile I think there's been a mistake while editing:
Durability: Small Country level+, likely far higher | At least Country level+, likely far higher | Country level, likely far higher
Striking Strength: Small Country Class+, likely far higher | At least Small Country Class+, likely far higher | Country Class, likely far higher


Someone missed "Small" in his durability section.

I don't think I'll give input here as I'm not familiar with how the Rel+ thing worked. But the "small" thing is an editing mistake on my part, I'll fix it later on

1. People agreed to these changes
2. There is a calc and got it at 75-90% speed of light (which is rel+)

You may disagree with the rating, but you have to proof of him not being rel+. We have been giving you all the proof you need, but you keep either ignoring it, or saying the same things that don't help your case. "headcannon," and, "nonsense". Can you tell us how its nonsense and your proof?
 
Yeah, it was agreed that:
  1. Aura comes from Boros' body.
  2. Aura can launch targets at relativistic speeds.
  3. Boros scales to aura.

  3. Boros scales to aura.
the justification for number 3 comes from the manga databook "Using the energy from his body as a propelling force he is able to surpass his limits and achieve extreme speeds, delivering meteoric levels of destructive power"

And your agreement is irrelevant when your argument is based on personal headcanon.
Basically, you are wrong.
Again I repeat, it is wrong and must be removed!

I don't appreciate memes, especially images this big on a CRT.
Delete it if you can.
 
Where did you get this "official translation" from?
Mangasee.
Also you cannot just say "My headcanon is that your argument is headcanon, so you are wrong".
I can and I will say it as many times as I wish.
The justification is a lie. Nothing it says was mentioned in the manga or by the author.
It's not a vague theory with many interpretations thats up to opinions.

🤔

Also, how it Mangasee the "official translation"?
 
Why is this being brought up again? Slacjow hasn’t brought anything new to the table, just old, previously addressed arguments and reasonings. Isn’t this against the rules?
 
well yes I used to read bleach and Khr on manga see and Mangalife cuz both were accurate, idk about one punch man tho
**** auto correct
 
You didn’t debunk it. Your arguments were addressed.
No they weren't addressed, you can go and check the thread, and if you find any reply that debunked what I said you can post it here.
There's literally nothing that supports the interpretation thats on Boros's profile right now.
 
Well checking with Viz publishing the scan that Slacjow provided is from the official manga.

However, the second scan seems to be a translation and explanation that corroborates the speed and the final one is a calc for saitama's speed. So I can see the calc getting removed if need be, but in this instance, it looks like the speed is supported.

Has the translation for the second scan been deemed unreliable somewhere?
 
All you really said is that the energy didn’t move Saitama, not that Boros wouldn’t be at that speed. Either way, This isn’t an issue with the speed itself, it’s just a change of the wording of the justification.
 
It's like I mentioned, Boros kick speed >>> speed at which Saitama was launched.
But the question is why in the justification.
 
I think it's best overall if we take a raw Japanese translation and have some English to Japanese translator expert do the work. But I pretty much agree that "Near lightspeed" statement could be hyperbolic.

The speed of Saitama's flight was indeed near SOL.
The issue here is how we give Boros that speed. His profile states that his energy supposedly moves things at the speed of light. Well, it doesn't, and no scan linked supports that opinion.

That’s not an issue with the speed, that’s the justification. That’s an easy change.

I don't have issue with near Light Speed, my issue is how we scale it to Boros's Speed. His profile states that his energy supposedly moves things at the speed of light. Well, it doesn't, and no scan linked supports that opinion.

It's not so easy, I don't think people here agree scaling Saitama's flight speed in vacoom to Boros's attack speed.
I may be wrong.

The second scan on that profile has someone (I assume from the wiki) translate text from japanese into english explaining that the aura Boros produces allows him to launch Saitama at near light speeds. I assume that's why Boros is given Relativistic+

Actually no, I addressed that in the latest thread.
That statement doesn't say that Boros's Aura launches Saitama at near SOL, it states that Boros's Energy Reduced the friction in the atmosphere so Saitama's clothes don't burn.
 
As I mentioned, we can use Newtonian mechanics for this, however, we cannot use this for relativistic speeds, but it still serves as a basis since the thing depends exclusively on the weight.

For example, we know that Boros launched Saitama with only one leg. If Boros' leg was 100kg, her speed would be less, if her leg was 70kg, her speed would be the same and as his leg is lighter, the speed is greater.
 
There’s also the statement about the energy having “repulsive force”, no? Doesn’t that support the notion that the energy had a part in it?

Also, I don’t see why it has to be black or white. If the energy has repulsive force, it very easily could just be that he got flung at that speed because of the energy, and didn’t have friction as well because of the energy, when both are stated.

Interestingly enough, it also said Boros launched Saitama at near-lightspeed. You just gotta look real closely.

If you are planning a CRT, you can prepare it and do one after this.

I don't argue about that, I don't care if Boros launched him at MFTL+++ speeds, I am arguing against the notion that his energy wrapped in Saitama and boosted his speed to SOL.
The Force of Boros's Kick carried Saitama to the Moon, not the Energy as is stated on the profile.
 
That same energy is explicitly stated in both the manga and the databook to provide Boros with his "meteoric power" and his heightened speed.
