A question about planet level Boros

[Cropfist]

How do we know his statement of "Blowing the planet to hell" isn't hyperbole (just like some other shone villains)?

buwump

 

[Cropfist]

Just waiting here for an answer.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

We don't, but at the same time, we don't really have any reason to doubt it either, as he has no reason to bluff. Hence why it's listed as "probably".

 

[Cropfist]

None of the other villains i linked to had a reason to bluff either and their planet level claims were dismissed as hyperbole.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

That's because by scaling to other characters in their own series, we can see that their claim is likely hyperbole, whereas no such contradiction exists with Boros, as the only person he fought was Saitama.

 

[Cropfist]

But Saitama had no planet level feats to scale to.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

No, but Saitama has nothing but casual feats and is implied to be capable of planet level feats, hence why we don't entirely rule it out.

 

[Cropfist]

Casual city level feats. And those could be hyperbole too.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

Actually, even the shockwave of Saitama punching away Boros' final attack was 6-A, and as Boros explained, Saitama was never truly serious during the fight.

 

[Cropfist]

According to our newly revised attack potnecy chart, the difference between 6-A and 5-B is quite large.

It always was quite large. But nothing contradicts boros's statement. Thets why it says probably/possibly

 

[Cropfist]

Nothing contradicts the other statements either. If Boros' unproven claim is accepted and sacled to Saitama then that should logicaly apply to the others.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

What contradicts the other statements is the fact that characters exist in those verses who are equal to/superior to said characters, and they are nowhere near that level. The only person flat out superior to Boros is Saitama, and we have absolutely no idea what his upper limits are yet, along with him ending the fight casually.

According to word of god, Garou is roughly equal Boros, and he's only multi-continent level.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

Garou is Multi-Continent due to scaling to Boros, actually. He on his own doesn't have many destructive feats, as more of his feats are beating up other characters.

 

[Cropfist]

But Garou is only multi-continent and equal to Boros, meaning somone of similar power isn't planet level.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

Multi-Continent, possibly Planetary. Like I said, Garou on his own lacks destructive feats, meaning we have to scale him from other characters and WoG.

 

[Cropfist]

But the planetary level comes from Boros' statement, which was never proven and could have been exaggeration.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

Which is why it's only a possibility and not 100%.

 

[Alpha149]

And if "destroy the planet" it is simply a consequence?

I mean, if Boros destroys the entire surface of the Earth only leaving the exposed core, this would collapse

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

That would be considered more than the planet's surface, and probably closer to something like small planet level if he grazed it down to just the core.

 

[Alpha149]

That would be considered more than the planet's surface, and probably closer to something like small planet level if he grazed it down to just the core.

But at least isn't planet level

 

[ShinyMagicalGirl]

Well its probably so yeah. I believe the attack has the potential to become planet level, but it was just never shown. Eh Im not an expert in this, just what i think.

 

[Omimi]

Boros said he can destroys the entire surface of the Earth

Not The Earth

 

[Alpha149]

Boros said he can destroys the entire surface of the Earth
Not The Earth

But for some reason they started to say that a simple sentence of anime it is enough to make Boros a planet buster -.-
