The fact that the lightning is slow would prove that it's a false lightning you dumbass
"A surprise attack"
No, and woundnt change much
Uh?
Lowtiers = Subsonic
that's wrong on so many levels but let's focus on the topic on hand
topic on hand,
Actually, Tanjiro does dodge sound attacks from Kyogai and that was in season 1.
chillout, not tryna see you in rvr
Added the scene:
The argument is that Sekido's long-range attacks are by summoning lightning from the sky after slamming his staff to the ground. And in the cited anime scene, we clearly see Zohakuten using lightning without dragons (we didn't see him resummon his dragons for this scene in the manga); similar to how he can use sonic attacks with and without his dragons.
You straight up didn't get what i said
we're talking about sky to ground lightning here
....nah, your "evidence" is about the speed of the characters, not the damn lightning being real lightning or not, if this thread gets accepted and someone makes another thread trying to get calcs into the profiles then your arguments would be relevant, but not here, no.
There might even be potential issues with that, but this is not the thread for that.
The lightning forms an arc both upwards and downwards so this doesn't really disprove the electricity coming from the demon itself.
It's not that deep guys
Prior to this scene we see all 3 of the demons on a higher floor of the house and they only touched the ground once they destroyed the house they were located in. Them being vertical means nothing if he’s on a higher ground, as there’s no reason to assume he can’t aim his attacks.to get back on track
this is the first scene in the form of a manga panel
first scene: chapter 112 page 16
it shows vertical lightning bolts, it was faithfully animated and showed sekido being one floor above them and he summoned the lightning bolts via tapping the ground with the staff
They aren’t entirely vertical, they’re angled towards them. It’s very possible for it to have been shot from his staff and aimed towards them. We don’t know, using the anime as a source of evidence just doesn’t work when it comes to sum like this.second scene: chapter 113 page 17
the manga shows vertical lightning bolts and shows sekido being on level ground with them, it was also faithfully animated and it shows sekido tapping the ground with his staff to summon the vertical lightning
third scene: chapter 114 page 2
it also shows vertical lightning, the anime shows sekido tapping the ground with his staff allowing the vertical lightning to be summoned
We literally don’t know whether this came from his dragons or not. It’s baseless to assume it has, the fact that all his lightning has been shown to originate from a source (not the sky) would just depict that this came from his dragons.fourth scene: chapter 123 page 18
zohakuten uses lightning without the wooden dragons, it was also animated to show sky to ground lightning
I mean, tbh, we don't even have a cloud to ground lightning attack from the anime.
We see here that the dragon is directly attacking from his mouth.
And here we actually see a bolt come from it’s mouth and go upwards. Which is weird if they can only go in one direction.
He is slamming his staff on the ground to attack with lightning from above; so high ground doesn't add much. If you are claiming that he can manually control the lightning so much to aim it and force it into a convoluted arc toward his target, it simply doesn't make sense to not directly shoot it in a straight line instead.
If you are claiming it is ambiguous, we have the anime to resolve the ambiguity. Sounds like the perfect opportunity to use the anime as a source of evidence.
And because of the anime, now we know.
Information often get revealed in secondary canon, such as databook, and it is an unusual position to discard them because you didn't figure it out in the primary source. Furthermore, it is not 'something never shown or implied in the manga'; they are literally animated adaption of the feats, and as pointed out earlier it was ambiguous whether lightning is summoned from the sky and now it is clarified.
As the name of the attack implies (crazed), lightning is randomly shot in all sort of directions.
I mean that is what the anime apparently shows, and the impression most people who participated in the thread got from seeing the scenes.
hello there fellow newbie
Sounds good point.
the entire point given is the fact that they don't come from the staff but they're summoned by the staff via tapping the ground, as evident by the fact that they're all vertical and the summoner is on level ground with all the characters when the vertical lightning bolts come down to attack them
Op is just trying to prove that there are attacks who are cloud-to-ground though, wich is just one of our criterias, if they presented other evidence that fit our standards then this would be an easier CRT to evaluate.
isn't sky to ground lightning considered to be real lightning?
