Chainsaw Man discussion thread

That's how fast a single individual hair will fall, which will be much slower than a clump of hair thanks to the higher surface area to volume ratio. A clump of hair is the thing being measured though, which falls much faster. Appreciate using the drag formula though.
I could try to do a recalc (or just buy a cosplay hair home and experiment on it). I'm 100% sure that air drag would reduce initial velocity significantly though, it shouldn't go past light speed. But anyways, the hair still suggest an extremely tight timeframe, so either just assume a tighter timeframe (0.1 second or something) or go through hell like how I'm doing.

Man, should've went with super lazy assumption.

The bullet moved over 29,000 kilometers in the time it took something to fall about 1.86 centimeters, if that's used as a basis. It's very possible that it went FTL Even that generous tenth of a second you posit would result in the bullet going 97.3% c, just barely under the bar.
 
That IS from 2023
Still wouldn't hire an AI Lawyer.


Anywho, the current problem I'm seeing with using standstill-Yoru as a reference is that she’s actually at slightly different angles in the two different panels, on top of one being from up close while the other's from afar (meaning more/less dramatic parallax which is why her hand is so much bigger in the close up shot because it's closer to the POV than her head is while it's less exaggerated in size in the shot taken from farther away) which I noticed when trying to line up their faces in paint.net, meaning her hair could've moved more or less relative to her face but not in a way that's apparent thanks to the slight change in perspective

is the calc really about the hair???

Bro now I can't get it out of my head anymore

0.1 second confirmed, or maybe just reduce the timeframe cause 2 seconds is too much for this case, the hair calc is so real.

Also ultra refined calc coming, I'm sure 100% that it will be within the range.
 
Some questions I have with some high tier scaling. So first off, shouldn't Makima logically scale to Mountain level in AP?
She's able to harm Pochita gravely with bang, and the same bang also gravely harmed Darkness who's > Pochita presumably
Pochita took an attack from Yoru that's mountain level twice, once when blasting through Mount Elbris, which he literally tanked, and the other through the statue thing, but Pochita almost died to. So mainly the former being used.
So, as a result, shouldn't Makima has Mountain level AP?

Further consistent by the fact that she should be relative to Yoru to begin with in AP considering they're both apart of the 4 horseman and together fought against Pochita, and the fact that they scale to the Primal Fears who dwarf any devil below them in totality, which includes the Gun Devil which had Mountain level feats to begin with.

Never happened, bro was enjoying his flight to space. And being a primal fear does not mean you automatically has higher physical stats than the strongest physical Devil in the manga

Yes, yes it does.

Aside from that, I believe we need to Makima that ability Makima used on darkness more clear on her profile, to avoid scaling misconceptions like the above.
 
I mean dura wise. We've seen Aging crushing Pochita and Pochita cutting Aging like butter. I should've worded it better.
That's because they both have the same strength, but Pochita has the advantage via piercing damage. We also know a devil's power (empowerment) affects all physical stats, so anything being otherwise would be a plot hole.

Casual Aging obviously decided to not use Fear Reinforcement on his body, same way Yoshida bloodied casual Quanxi's nose.

It's funny, the moment we work Yoru out of her scaling triangle with Quanxi and Yoshida, she ends up in another one with Aging and Pochita.
 
Yes, yes it does.

Does Makima get Primal Reactions, or are we gonna assume that Darkness wasn't initially locked in considering the next times she tried it only resulted in her hand and then arm getting mangled twice?

Because if she does then we get Gun Goddess =< Primals = Makima <<< Part 1 Pochita <<< Part 2 Pochita = Gun Gauntlets < Gun Goddess

I'd assume that he was, soly because he initially acted first and began to take Makima seriously on sight. Makima was even faster to notice the second time around, however, the ability she was trying to activate wasn't fast enough.
Because if she does then we get Gun Goddess =< Primals = Makima <<< Part 1 Pochita <<< Part 2 Pochita = Gun Gauntlets < Gun Goddess
Yeah this scaling chain is pretty messed up. If we take into account that Makima was holding back in part 1 though, it could help change it into something more consistent.

Part 1 Pochita < Gun Gauntlets < Gun Goddess < Primals = Makimas reactions = Part 2 Pochita.

Ah, much, much better.

"This looks unwinnable" = "Even though I have an attack that is faster than and can do damage to Pochita, and have reaction speeds fast enough to see Pochita in slow motion, and I can come back to life over 100,000,000 times if he doesn't eat me, and I can take control of him once I beat him enough to prove myself superior, circumventing his immortality, instead I'll weaken him. But not because I need to, but because I want to. And I'm saying "this looks unwinnable" because I had an aneurysm, despite how said aneurysm would transfer to another Japanese citizen."

Mt Elbrus boom is like 7-C. Right Gun Gauntlet blew holes in Pochita and required him to deflect with his chainsaws. The actual 7-A attack (Gun Goddess) turned Pochita into a torso. Makima's Bang at best drew a few drops of blood after hitting a weaker Pochita 4 times.

Ah, so that's a pretty big scaling issue.

What's annoying is that the alternative, that Darkness was just holding back, doesn't make that much sense either. Granted, even ignoring scaling Darkness doesn't make much sense.
Darkness: [Literally spells out MAKIMA in severed arms]
Also Darkness: [Lets Makima escape, despite how it can affect things outside of Hell via reaching through panels]

Like, I get part of darkness is not understanding something, but seriously what was the actual plan there? You go as far making a contract with Santa for Pochita, and then immediately give up the chase after he leaves your front porch?
 
I literally got a PHD in physics just for this, I don't know why I'm doing this anymore, should've gone with the 0.1 second estimation smh smh. Anyways, I got the ultra super ultimate refined calc here (edited with unga bunga calc as a bonus and a plan C):
Edit: fixed all the errors, the ultra super ultimate refined calc is officially done (I hope)

Csm chapter soon! Finally.

Also my calc is looking good, I think. Should I send it for evaluation? Maybe after fixing the grammar a bit too.
