Once again, whether or not you personally acknowledge the characters as being supersonic is inconsequential. The crucial point is that within the context of the verse, it has already been widely accepted and established. However, if you wish to present a counterargument, you are free to create a detailed thread outlining your reasoning. Ultimately, the scaling and power levels within the verse, as well as the categorization of the World Record students, will continue to remain at the supersonic level unless a compelling case is made to alter it (though my personal investment in the scaling of Cote is minimal).
To support this assertion, let's consider the evidence. Shiba's ability to create a sound delay with his fist indicates a clear sonic boom occurrence. This event has been acknowledged and accepted by two calculation group members who specialize in determining scaling and power levels. Therefore, Ichika's comparison to Shiba holds merit since it is explicitly stated that she could engage in a toe-to-toe fight with him. The reason she didn't do so was because the pain inflicted by Shiba intensifies when he catches his opponents.
Regarding the suggestion that Ayanokouji's statement about Shiba's delayed fist could be hyperbolic, it lacks plausibility. It's difficult to comprehend why such a statement would be exaggerated or treated as mere hyperbole. Not everything mentioned in light novels should be automatically dismissed as hyperbolic. It is crucial to carefully analyze the context and evaluate the feasibility of the given information.
Furthermore, your admission of not having read the light novel diminishes the weight of your input regarding the series' ratings. A deep understanding of the feats and events is crucial in accurately assessing the power scaling and character abilities within a specific series.
Regarding the mentioned feat involving Ichika, I acknowledge that it may face scrutiny and potential removal. However, it's important to note that the overall rating of the characters may not change significantly since the primary reason for Ichika's placement is her scaling to the supersonic level alongside Shiba.
Lastly, the feat in question has already undergone extensive discussion and received acceptance from multiple members who participate in such evaluations. Additionally, the ratings adjustment for Ichika Amasawa and Takuya Yagami has been agreed upon. I suggest focusing on shows and series that you possess a thorough understanding of, as it will enhance the quality and credibility of your contributions
