It's not jumping that lets Turbo-Granny catch up, it's the fact that the train isn't working at full speed all the time whereas Turbo-Granny can.

Kind of a double-edged sword; her boasting about her speed yet her not being above lying to her enemies to get ahead, and yes the train scene would show even further it's travel speed

Again I believe this is the best case here so I'll ask other staff opinions. In my opinion we should list it like this and note that possibly is to denote the actual onscreen feats and speed scaling that would otherwise be weird under the 100kmh verse cap assumption

Right I forgot about that. But that leads to an odd scale, Turbo's 100kph couldn't fully catch the train not at full speed and needed to increase her force to get to it.

Okay I rewatched, guess I just misremembered the scene.

Oh yeah I'm just gonna say that I'm in favour of this method, if we don't want to totally disregard the statement atleast

I have the sumo alien feat off-site hencewhy I mentioned it, I'm sure the supporters of this CRT has similar calcs

I’m not quite sure about the use of ‘Possibly.’ Do we have a significant reason to use it? I don’t really understand the criteria for giving so much importance to feats if there’s already a clear statement. Also, I’m worried it could become problematic in the future because the scaling is already quite unusual.

Just to note like this narrative speed, possibly (the consistent speed scale based on feats at whatever point in the story)
Its something that can just be noted like this due to the series very consistemtly having waaaay more feats higher than 100kmh than we have actual statements of it,
Note: Dandadan is noted and accepted as being extremely inconsistent speed wise. To the point where in the same scene within the same episode/chapter the speed showings will contradict themselves at times. It was determined here (link to this CRT) that the best way to represent the Dandadan's minimum accepted speed and maximum displayed speed anything else was considered arbitrary placement due to the inconsistencies within the series.
That way we aren't ignoring the narrative cap but still address that they consistently ALWAYS have much better feats than the 100kmh cap

The 2nd chapter literally has a subsonic feat
he like perception blitzes the sumo guy from at least 10m away, the helicopter leg thing in chapter 6 is also blatantly subsonic too and I hope I don't need to explain whyBut yeah the AP is a mess rn

The 8-B Calc for the main character has been accepted, and I’m going to update it soon. As for 8-A, that’s currently for the Kaiju section in the verse.

why are we treating the cast like regular humans when not transformed they all have at least wall level feats themselves even when not transformed also momo's dura and ap gets amped after awakening she'd just be outright 8-B or whatever

Momo has high durability, as noted in her profile, but that’s unrelated to her AP.

Tbh, these kinds of things should be discussed in the Discussion Thread. If this thread doesn’t have anything else, it should be closed.

nah I definitely do but anyways its calculated at subsonic as said previously
I don't mind

I think the solution's pretty simple. Count up every time the 100 km/h thing is stated (as well as every other anti-feat), and count up every feat that lands above that value.
If there's more feats above that value than anti-feats below, then the low-end is an outlier. If the evidence weighs the other way, the opposite is true.
I don't think a statement cap is particularly more reliable than demonstrated feats.
Other verses have this process complicated by anti-feats being at a ton of different levels, or some feats/anti-feats being especially plot important, but this case seems pretty simple of it just being one statement that's repeated a lot.

I’m just saying in advance, the 100 km/hr speed is still mentioned in the later arcs.

Dandadan - Speed standard
Introduction This thread will discuss the speed of Dandadan with a statement from Turbo Granny, which says that Turbo Granny has a speed of only 100 km/h. However, there are many feats in the story that show speeds much greater than 100 km/h. This thread will focus on whether the discussion...

It is not simply a statement that is spoken and does not happen in the script.
Dalesean said that in chapter 2 there is a subsonic feat, but a little in the future the TG simply couldn't overtake a train simply because it was a little faster than its 100km/h.

It stops being stated after Turbo Granny is defeated. Which is like chapter 7 out of 150+

it is stated again when Okarun does the astral projection thing in the alien invasion arc.
It is, however, stated by Turbo baba herself that it is "her power to run 100kmh anywhere" so I've been thinking it probably applies specifically to her rather than Okarun, whose power could differ significantly.
