Gran Torino and Mirko upgrades, I'll discuss Gran Torino first.

I believe Gran Torino should be downscaling to baseline High 6-C+, which is 550 Gigatons of TNT.

Not fully if what I have is enough for his AP and Lifting Strength to scale, but I think his durability is solid.

We got four feats here.

1: Here he withstood being hit by All For One's Rivet Stab as well, which is strong enough to harm All Might.

2: Gran Torino takes a direct punch to the face from All Might, as All For One used him as a human shield. All Might didn't weakened his attack as Impact Recoil still hurt him.

3: He withstood being struck in the stomach by Incomplete Tomura. You can see there is an impact going to Gran Torino's gut and he's coughing up blood.

4: He later withstood being slammed into the ground by Tomura as well.

He takes noticeable damage in these cases, which is why he's downscaling to 550 Gigatons.

The only anti-feats is that moments later, Tomura punched into his stomach. I'll note that the punch didn't go all the way through and he was shown to still be conscious. I'm aware that part is more of an endurance feat. But Tomura already hit him previously, so that took two attacks and the punch wasn't instantly fatal.

The only other "anti-feat" for Torino is 5% Izuku giving him a scratch just by grazing him. However, even without the High 6-C+ scaling this feat is nonsensical. As Gran Torino was capable of stomping people who scale above 5% like Magne and the Mid-Tier Nomu. 5% scratching him with a graze would imply that he's vastly stronger than Gran Torino.

Which is not the case at all.

Note: The only other feat of someone hurting Gran Torino is Machia's offscreen damage. Considering Machia jumps from 7-C to Low 6-B, it's irrelevant. Which means, what I've listed above is all of Gran Torino's Durability feats from the main series. High 6-C is clearly more consistent than him being scratched by 5% Izuku.

There are only a few feats worth mentioning to my understanding.

1: He catches All Might after being launched by All For One's Air Cannon.

We see later that AFO's Air Cannon can hurt Gran Torino even indirectly, so him stopping and catching All Might could support his AP scaling.

2: Deflected an attack from Incomplete Shigaraki, which he even says was the best way to avoid that.

This could allow him to downscale to 550 Gigatons as well in AP, but I'm uncertain as I said above.

Gran Torino did also attempt to strike Shigaraki. But I don't think this is usable for anything.

He did slammed Shigaraki into the ground, but he was already in the air so it's not like that means anything.

But the anime showed should he held him down for a few seconds before being overpowered. This support an At most Class P Lifting Strength rating.

Sandbox of how his profile would look.

Please specify what you agree with, assuming you don't agree with everything.

Moving on, I want to discuss something about Mirko that might be controversial.

Mirko should scale to Complete Tomura, making her 6-B in AP/Dura with Rabbit, downscaling from 52.65 Teratons of TNT to be exact.

Note: I'm not saying she's equal to him, she's without a doubt weaker, but she is clearly strong enough to scale to his tier.

This isn't hard to explain, she's able to knock Tomura to the ground and even draw blood from him with her attacks.

This is very clear scaling, even though she is weaker. That's not the hard part. It's the fact that we currently treat this as an outlier for her.

An Outlier is an event or incident that is considered to be completely and irreconcilably inconsistent with a character, entity, group, or series' normal displayed level of power. I'm here to argue that this doesn't fit with Mirko's scaling to Tomura at all. Thankfully, no one scales to Mirko's Rabbit so it doesn't mess up any scaling.

Mirko was already strong enough to one shot the High-End Nomu, who are stronger than the USJ Nomu, who is just as strong as Weakened All Might. She was already one shotting people who are High 6-C+, her harming someone who is 6-B is just further proof of her strength.

So her being 6-B wouldn't be inconsistent with her known level of strength.

Her body's durability will remain at High 6-C+, only her Rabbit/Legs will be rated as 6-B in AP and Dura. While she did take a hit from Complete Tomura, she was taken out instantly. She was unable to continue fighting even with her insane endurance, she stayed out for the entire arc.

Also, the only time her legs were damaged was against the High-Ends. Both of whom used piercing power, not just raw strength.

I need to mention Bakugo, as we currently rate his Cluster above Mirko. But this should be removed from his profile. Bakugo's attack was not stronger than Mirko's, Tomura's statement about not taking any damage doesn't apply to her attacks. She made him stagger and damaged him, which freaked him out and left him confused.

Bakugo's attack stung Tomura at best and didn't even move him. While Mirko knocked him to the ground and later made him bleed. After that his body responded by evolving into defensive form. Mirko damaged him and he becomes more durable to protect himself from further damage. This clearly shows that Mirko > Cluster.

We also later find out that Bakugo's Cluster is inferior to Endeavor. So Bakugo being inferior to Mirko in terms of raw power is pretty much a given.

Sandbox of how her profile will look.

I'm neutral until I see what other people say in the thread, but to address this specific bit:

This isn't hard to explain, she's able to knock Tomura to the ground

This seems to be a more Lifting Strength feat than an Attack Potency feat, as we can see in these two pages Tomura really isn't fazed by a kick to the face from her. In fact after her kick lands he's still standing and he's able to turn his head and address her without issue and it's her follow-up motion where she rips her own arm off that succeeds in knocking Tomura over to the ground, not through the force of her attack.

As for drawing him blood from him with her subsequent attacks, that required a full barrage of hits from her, at least 10 or so going by the number of impact effects, maybe more.

Although you already acknowledge that Mirko is weaker than Shigaraki, this does make the scaling a bit more dubious to me.
 
That's an interesting point, still be Class P, but Tomura does labels this as getting damage.

"Did I just... stagger a little?! With this body?! That's not possible. I haven't felt real damage..."

Him just being pushed downward and nothing else wouldn't have any reason to shock him, especially as he brings up feeling damaged. Also, I believed it was an impact as there is clearly an impact effect from where she hit him and a sound effect as well. Though the latter could've been Shiggy hitting the floor.

What about Star being the strongest woman around? Kinda know what's the solution but asking just in case.
Her hax is the most obvious answer, without a doubt. However, AFO was unaware of how her Quirk worked exactly due to the fact the USA keep it a secret.

He just had the basic knowledge that she can apply rules to whatever she touches.

We see he only became aware she has a limit to her strength enhancing powers after she failed to kill him in one strike. Making it likely he was unaware of her strength limit. Note: AFO was only going to engage Star after stealing OFA. Meaning he wasn't certain if Complete Tomura would stand a chance, as he didn't know her limits at the time.
 
Note: Mirko is without a question downscaling, but due to how high they are in the Tier I'm don't think she can go all the way down to 7 Teratons or baseline 6-B.

Just an unknown amount lower than 52.65 Teratons.

Actually, I should be labeling her as At most 6-B and not just plaining 6-B. As said, it took her a barrage of hits to make Tomura bleed.

I stalked Rusty's sandboxes and knew this was coming.

I believe there is definitely credence on Gran Torino's upgrades on all fronts, just need to review his overall feats and scaling.
I was already under the impression that Gran Torino may be roughly around Endeavor's level physically, although weaker. Being at 45% Deku's level scaling wise, below Endeavor, might be fine optically.

Mirko is a fair bit more iffy. I agree for the idea of an upgrade but not sure where it would land her exactly.
Although this is essentially irrelevant, for a good part of the fandom, there is that mental disconnect with Mirko being stronger than a Weakened All Might.

Essentially, I agree with the OP but I'd also wait if others have something relevant to contribute.
 
Bump.

Edit: For both Gran Torino would be 550 Gigatons as he'd downscale to baseline High 6-C+ as explained above.

Mirko's actual scaling is a bit harder to say, all I can say is she'd downscale from 52.65 Teratons. To be simple, she's between Weakened and Prime All Might.

Not really replying to anyone, just making this clear.

About Mirko. Her discussion should be about her feats being an outlier or not. And I believe I explain above why that's not the case.

Because her actual feats speak for themselves. Mirko hurt Tomura, who has 6-B durability, and later drew blood with her Luna Rush combo attack. Yes she is downscaling, as she didn't inflict severe damage on him or anything. But her being At most 6-B wouldn't be inconsistent with her shown level of strength.

She was already one shotting High-End Nomu, who are High 6-C+. This is why I feel it's not an outlier, when she's already one shotting people at that level.

And no one else scales to her level of strength.

If you're referring to him staggering there, doesn't Tomura himself say that he hasn't felt real damage yet with the only thing coming up in his mind to contradict that being Bakugo's earlier attack which made him feel threatened?

He's including Mirko's attack as well. As I explained in a previous comment.

That's an interesting point, still be Class P, but Tomura does labels this as getting damage.

Him just being pushed downward and nothing else wouldn't have any reason to shock him, especially as he brings up feeling damaged.
He's shocked that he's taken damage, which he equates to being impossible. The stagger hurt, if being moved shocked him, Suneater's Plasma Cannon moved him more.

If the attack didn't even hurt him at all and just moved him his statement doesn't make sense, especially since he brought up being damaged.

Edit: Heck, Lemillion's Nejire Enhanced punch sent him flying.

I have a little doubt. We've scaled Tomura's tumor to be above Mirko's. If we scale Mirko to 6-B, we'll have a lot more characters to go up with her.
Mirko's normal durability remains at High 6-C+.

Only her Quirk's stats would be At most 6-B, which is her legs, as her legs are vastly stronger than the rest of her body.

Mirko's kicks one shots people who are comparable to her body's normal durability. No one scales to Mirko's leg strength.

There's a Sandbox that show what Gran Torino and Mirko's stats would look like in the OP.
 
I actually have one thing to mention.

Right before Mirko hit Shigaraki hit him with her Luna Rush that made him bleed, .

Plus, Mirio blocked his vision so he couldn’t properly prepare for her coming attack.

So wouldn’t this technically be an AFO-All Might situation…?

What are you talking about? What situation do you even mean here?

Blocking your vision doesn't magically drop your natural durability.

Quirkless Tomura is Prime All Might level, she made him bleed with multiple kicks, she downscales from him. Very simple reasoning.
 
What are you talking about? What situation do you even mean here?
When Prime AFO gave All Might that permanent wound. We all know that, according to Gran Torino, AFO got into All Might’s head enough to catch him off-guard when he was in blind, unfocused rage.


So when All Might was caught off-guard, his durability similarly shouldn’t have been lowered either, right?
 
That has nothing to do with anything here. We have no idea what AFO did to All Might and it has zero relevance here.

What are you going on about?
Damn, you replied way quicker than I expected.

I actually added a bit more in my last reply. Maybe look at that to get what I’m saying?
 
You know, rethinking on this, you do have a point there. For all we know, AFO could’ve used a dura-neg quirk, so fair enough Ig.
Well the point is Duraneg or not catching him off guard is not going to lower his durability so no matter what this doesn't work and nor does it have anything to do with Torino or Mirko

I'd also like to point out nothing suggest All Might lowered his durability against his strongest opponent because was angry. The only thing that was stated was that he got enraged, which allowed AFO to open that hole in his stomach. We literally see All Might get blasted by AFO and Gran Torino says this is the same thing.

He clearly didn't get less durable when blasted by AFO here when angry, why assume he's less durable in the past when enraged?

Even if by some absurd chance that All Might did turn off OFA and that's how he got injured. That has no relevance to Tomura, who's power comes from his body being enhanced via surgery. His strength isn't the product of some superpower/Quirk he can turn on or off, it's a permanent strength increase to Prime All Might level.

Then what do we mean by “we know nothing of how AFO damaged All Might” then?
