Excuse me? Pulled speed out of my ass? Do you know what downtime means? That’s a direct compliment to her speed if there is no downtime between her shots. She’s a kilometer away and he can only barely react to her attacks. He verbatim says that without Danger Sense he would already be a goner.
Downtime is not related to the attack speed of
bullets.
He verbatim says that without Danger Sense he would already be a goner.
If you turn around right, and somebody shoots you from behind you, Deku's Danger Sense would alert you that there's an attack behind you.
If you don't have that sense, you will get shot.
Danger Sense helped in a way that wasn't speed related.
I think you forgot the purpose of Danger Sense and you twisted it to specifically be
only a reaction amp and a precog instead of its purpose to
sense danger.
Incorrect. The second panel is him kicking a curved bullet out of the air, then getting shot by her shooting directly at him, because she predicted he would block the curved bullet. The bullet coming from behind him was the trick bullet that she curved around a building, the one that hit him was shot directly from her.
Oh wow. You know what I see from your argument? Nothing speed related. You literally just explained how she finessed a shot in by preoccupying him with a bullet.
You basically said
She hit him because she distracted him via one bullet and the other one hit him while he was busy.
Those two things are not the same at all. Danger Sense alerts him of the location of Danger prior to it reaching him or whatever it seems to be “in danger.” Her bullets proc Danger Sense, but he still struggles to block her bullets. As I showed in the other panel of the provisional license exam, Deku should not struggle whatsoever if he knows the direction of her attacks, he has dodged far more difficult attacks than bullets. Heck, him dodging the energy beams from Nine is a better feat than dodging bullets.
Have you ever tried to hit a curveball?
The ball goes straight so you see it's direction.
Out of nowhere it curves badly to the point where you can't do shit about it unless you're lucky or skilled enough to hit the curveball.
Deku has a sense that tells him the direction that the curveball is going, but he has to adjust so he can manage to hit the curveball.
You're trying to say that Deku can't hit the ball because it's a fastball instead, but they give several reasons why and speed isn't one of them.
You are directly claiming that her bullets aren’t faster than him though? The wiki literally has her bullets at outpacing him even though he has Danger Sense, yet you’re claiming he doesn’t need Danger Sense to dodge her attacks.
I literally said verbatim in the OP
I don't have a huge issue with the "higher attack speed", but the justification is exaggerating it. The
(Can increase the size of her Rifle arm, enhancing the speed of her bullets even further)
is good enough.
I never said that they aren't faster.
Does it need to be spelled out for us to confer that the speed of her bullets was lending to his inability to dodge a lot of her attacks?
Does it need to be read out to you to confer that the skill of the shooter was lending to his inability to dodge a lot of her attacks?
Your issue is that you see him praise her skill and therefore ignore any other context that implies that her bullet speed is also impressive. None of what you attempted to debunk removes the reality that her bullets are reaching him near instantly from a kilometer away, as in after slowing down. The initial velocity of her bullets is far higher than their velocity a kilometer away. Them slowing down over long distances, but still pressuring Deku so hard he breaks a Mid Gauntlet to not get hit and die, is absolutely evidence that they are higher in speed than he is.
My issue is that the justification says that her bullets basically body him and his danger sense amped reaction speed.
I said already that I'm fine with the outpacing to be valid.
I'm not fine with her bullet's speed to be absolutely above his speed when there's nothing that says that the sole purpose that he couldn't dodge is her speed.
We're given several reasons canonically for why he got hit and why his feats are relevant, and she even says that him outpacing the bullet is irrelevant, and the only thing you picked up from it was speed.
He actually went and made a Nagant downgrade thread.
