I wouldn't say one hundred quintillion punches is an hyperbole, names of techniques are always literal in HnK universe. But it is an outlier nevertheless.That is not even a lightning feat. Just someone being able to charge electric sparks at his fist.
All other fiction's lightning or laser dodging feats will not include that "thunder punch".
And that "One hundred quintillion punches" is a statement at best, a hyperbole likely, a bluff at worst.
(Sadly) the thousand fist attack is the closest thing other than the cloud splitting punch as a speed feat.
TBF, 99.9% of technique names in HnK are literal 1:1 explanations of what the attack does, to the point of almost being comical, flowery language is borderline non-existent and when it is it's very, VERY obvious, like the one that's like "attack of the universal destruction" or some shitThe exceptional allowance for taking fluffy names literally in this particular verse seems dangerous as the practice of the North Star Fist itself.
It's in the "Travel speed" section of the OPFor the Liu Zongwu feat can you quote that scan for me once more?
Wdym?I wouldn't say one hundred quintillion punches is an outlier, techniques are always literal in HnK universe. But it is an outlier nevertheless.
Oh. A typo, sorry. I must have meant it's not a hyperbole.Wdym?
I also brought up this, which might change the tier for most charactersAlso, I'm just gonna bring up a thing I realized, the Raoh calc, the cloud pierce one, kinda misses the fact that Raoh also caused a HUGE split (the hole is almost puny in comparison) right next to the hole, that split is not included in the calc, and I'm pretty sure it would be a massive upgrade
100% an outlierThe OP shows a very clear lightning feat that would scale to the whole verse and might constitute an upgrade, we need to discuss/calc it
We need to come to a conclusion regarding a feat where a certain character attacks "100 quintillion times" in 1 pannel. We have to consider if the name of the technique is a bluff (basically impossible) an hyperbole (highly unlikely) or an outlier, because this feat would almost certainly be MFTL
We need to asses a statement from a character who outright states that he can punch "at the speed of light", it means little by itself, but if we consider the previous point valid...
This in particular. Most of the OP has already been debunkedThe OP shows a very clear lightning feat that would scale to the whole verse and might constitute an upgrade, we need to discuss/calc it

Van der Kool also can attack the opponent one hundred quintillion times.
The technique also shows a multitude of hits coming out at the same time, more than any other ever previously shown. It's also worth mentioning that almost every single technique which mentions the number of hits is literal and very precise in HNK, for instance, Hyoh has an attack whose name implies him throwing 1109 hits at the same time and it literally consists of him hitting 1109 pressure points at the same timeIf this is solely based on the name then I don't think it's acceptable.
The page isn't localized at all, so no, it can't be a "localization thing"Do we have a confirmation that it is the technique's actual name and not some localization thing?
Not much, the lightning feat, and possibly the stuff I brought up previously about the Raoh cloud-piercing calc and the waterfall feat.Is there much else to be discussed here?
I concur.If this is solely based on the name then I don't think it's acceptable.
Yamamoto from Bleach has a technique with a name that implies he can resurrect a trillion corpses... but we only ever see him with like a couple dozen at most. Names can be very hyperbolic.
These 2 I can see if anyone calc it (I made a calc request)What about the Raoh feat? I brought up how the calc ignores a huge split caused by Raoh alongside the hole
Also, has anybody ever calc'd Ken casually reverting a waterfall in 1 panel?
Eh i can agree that it's an outlier, but I personally think the number of attacks is correct, after all, we already take "their word" for attacks such as the Senju Kai Ken and the Hyoh one, where the number stated in the technique is actually accurate, I don't see why we should not accept this one in particular, especially when we actually shown that the attacks coming out are significantly more than those from other attacks.I concur.
Also, shouldn't the priority be 1? I'm pretty sure the Raoh one would scale to most of the cast safe, like, Jagi, as Raoh was weaker than his 30% form when he performed it, and thus pre-Musou Tensei Ken should scale to it, since he was stated by Raoh himself to already be strong enough to beat him, and he would have lost due to a technicality and skill gapThese 2 I can see if anyone calc it (I made a calc request)
Working IRL.
