Hikone and Ichigo blitz Candice
So, it seems like one of the big issues with my calcs is that Candice's perception speed is based on an assumed calc. That is inherently false, Candice gets her reactions from statements. A scenario which is 1-to-1 with my first two Bleach calcs (Ichigo and Hikone's blitzes) is this
recently accepted Fairy Tail thread.
Haku is stated to have lightspeed movement and has displayed the ability to move and react at those speeds. Other members of Haku's guild are stated equals or superior to Haku. Selene then blitzes those members, and hence has her speed calc'd from that.
This calc gets the reactions from the 1 m / (stated light speed), and then it's Selene's distance moved divided by reaction time for her speed.
Candice is stated to have lightning speed movement and has displayed the ability to move and react at those speeds. Ichigo and Hikone each blitz Candice, and hence have their speed calc'd from that.
Ichigo's and
Hikone's calc gets the reactions from the 1 m / (stated lightning speed), and then it's their distance moved divided by reaction time for their speed.
While these calcs are broken up into two steps (reaction time -> distance moved); however, they can be simplified into a distance ratio times speed. For example in both instances for my calcs and FT's, we have a character move a certain distance before another character with a stated speed can move a separate distance. Hence, the first character's speed is equivalent to the distance they moved over the distance the other character couldn't move multiplied by that other character's speed. That is exactly how
Gin/Ichigo's accepted calc is calculated.
There is no calc stacking with my Ichigo and Hikone blitz calcs, they follow standard procedure as do previous accepted blitz calcs, and standard procedure from calculating speeds from statements.
Yhwach's Darkness and Reiokyu Distance
I find the scrutinizing of me using a stated speed and stated timeframe to get the Reiokyu-Seireitei distance to then find Yhwach's darkness speed to be quite hypocritical for three reasons.
1) We use
stated time frames and speeds for Seireitei's accepted size, to which we then use that size to
calculate Gremmy's meteor's potency. It's not calc stacking because the basis of the size/distance calc is based on reliable statements.
2) We use the
same method for Seireitei's size for Las Noches, to which we use to calculate
Cero Oscuras,
Lanza del Relampago, and
Gran Rey Cero. It's not calc stacking because the basis of the size/distance calc is based on reliable statements.
3) We use
statements to get Karakura Town's size, to which we use to
calculate the theoretical destruction of the town. It's not calc stacking because the basis of the size/distance calc is based on reliable statements.
Now let's evaluate the Reiokyu-Seireitei distance calc. It uses a stated time frame (we see a literal clock) + stated travel speeds Ichigo far scales above (also similar to what Fairy Tail does with Selene's calc by saying Suzaku and the guild master have the same stated speed as Haku due to statements, i.e. fair game) to get a distance. Then said distance is used to calculate the speed at which Yhwach's attacks move. It is also not calc stacking because the basis of the size/distance calc is again based on reliable statements.
As for Ichigo maintaining that speed for such a comparatively short time for him:
Ichigo can full on run for 5 days straight with a mere fraction of the spiritual pressure he has in the TYBW,
Ichigo can fight Zangetsu for 2000 hours (
seriously mind you we see
Ichigo bleed multiple times) with again but a mere fraction of the spiritual pressure he has in TYBW,
Ichigo and Renji can fight bloodlusted Asauchi for 3 days as well (
it's not like it was a playful spar either), furthermore
Ichigo is very clearly in a rush to get back and it makes no sense to assume he'd be traveling liesurely at a pace far slower than those he's faster than. The idea that Ichigo's travel speed is slower than Grimmjow's over the span of less than half a day, when we see this man consistently exert himself heavily over multiple days and even months is ridiculous dismissal of his actual feats.
There is no calc stacking here either, using reliable statements to form the basis of other calcs is well within the confines of our rules.
