Well, Tanjirou has Clairvoyance as an extension of his incredibly good sense of smell on his profile and Zenitsu has Telepathy for being able to hear peoples' thoughts.Characters sensing each other's presence and intent to kill is a general ability. Sensing ill intent would fall under Enhanced Senses; it is similar to Tanjiro using his enhanced sense of smell to know people and animal's thoughts, and Zenitsu using his enhanced sense of hearing to know people's thoughts.
The results of the second character polls are out
Our boy Zenitsu got the #1 spot. If someone asks why Japan's population is declining, you can cite this poll.
Also, Enmu > Akaza
I’d say he should be At most city block level+ as well as with his near death adrenaline boost(It’s how I interpret it)he almost chopped off Akaza’s head it looked like Rengoku was about to cut through before Akaza attacked.
Zenitsu must somehow scale to an at least 8-C character or have a calculation that puts him at that level. Is there anything like that?
I mainly think he should be at least 8-C because when everyone was tired he preformed better than Inosuke and The Love Pillar against Muzan granted Muzan was very weakened
I do agree with the idea of Zenitsu being stronger than his current tiering suggests but I think that we would need a better reasoning for that since it has a certain amount of vagueness.
I mean idk it just feels weird to have him as Just a 9-A the narrative kinda implies that each member of Tanjiro’s group is basically the level of the average Pillar
Well, in the first two keys Zenitsu is comparable to Tanjirou and Inosuke in terms of Attack Potency and he also went through the Pillar Training like them, so I think that it makes the most sense for him to be comparable to them in Attack Potency in his third key as well from a narrative perspective.
That is also true as while this is a different verse Bakugo got upgraded to be considered a match for 30% Deku on the wiki based on Narrative reasons as well and based on how he is always comparable he was to Deku’s casual Percentages and Bakugo’s use of wording like how it’s hard keeping up with Deku but didn’t say he fell behind(Granted this is far more blatant than it is with KNY)
I’m not sure about it myself as I’m not the deepest into demon slayer scaling and kinda just accepted 8-B Demon Slayer but yeah with the energy input of creating that statue it doesn’t seem like Douma can apply that energy to his physical blows or something and I don’t think Kanao or inosuke even cut the statue
Well, the energy for the creation feat was exerted using his Blood Demon Art which means that this is the amount of energy he can generally use with his Blood Demon Art, especially since he was weakened while performing this feat, so it is arguably weaker than it would have been with him at full strength.
For Shoto's case, Heaven Piercing Ice Wall can count as an AP because he forms it like a projectile, or a forward motion that counts as a strike. Even then, nobody really scales from it since its AoE is so huge (so the energy distribution is huge as well) so only something like Gigantomachia would scale to its AP or Durability if Machia ever got hit by that attack (also Shoto mostly used it to freeze people within it or as a barrier to prevent people from moving).
This doesn't justify nor explain that Doma would have an 8-B AP because of creating it, or that the Slayers or the Upper Moons would scale their AP and Durability to it, unless there is proof that there is correlation between these things.
Good point there on Shoto I forget that a bigger object results in force being more spread out so even if it hit all might it wouldn’t be the max of what it could do as he’s not big enough lol
Doma did use the Ice Buddha to strike at Kanao and Inosuke among other things. Kanao also noted that it was a last-ditch effort from Doma due to him having noticed the effect of Shinobu's poison. She also mentioned how that technique is massive and how she is surprised that he has this much strength remaining.
Although it is different as it’s not like the energy used in its creation is flung like a projectile
The 8-A ratings is still based on Muzan being "incomparably stronger" than the Upper Moons, so he was put within the baseline 8-A rating.
His Blood demon Art id say would clearly scale above Douma’s in AP although it’s more so trying to paralyze than hit/kill anyone so yeah kinda iffy
Kokushibo actually noted that Yoriichi's strength and speed was no different from his prime as an old man.
Well, I'm very skeptical about Doma being 8-B or the Slayers and the Demons scaling from the energy from his creation feat. The reasons being:
Well, I do agree that Kokushibo is likely around 8-A in terms of power based on the current scaling.
I Also think it would affect Muzan’s scaling a lot.
He was weakened by Tamayo at the time though.
That is worth noting
Demon Tanjiro is a really mixed bag ngl like we know clearly he surpassed Muzan but we don’t know how much or if he was simply on his way to surpassing Muzan since he was still animalistic and couldn’t use his powers properly
Of the three of those I’d say only the third has the plausibility of being valid
It seemed pretty massive as Dance of the fire god Tanjiro was slicing his full power threads
Then he probably applied just that much force when cutting his own head off with his threads? It was an emergency for him after all.
