I don't think the amount of cross-panel scaling is significant enough to matter in this case. It's not like we're going across three or four panels, just two at most in each case.
Having a single panel for your scaling doesn't mean anything for accuracy if you get a completely wrong value as a result. If you got the radius of Konoha to be 500 km across, would you think it's still fine because you used a single panel?

We are only talking about an order of magnitude difference here, so when it comes to order of mag errors, I do think it's worth considering. I'm not claiming Konoha is Seireitei size lol, that isn't relevant to the discussion here.
- 31,253
- 27,478
At the moment, I'm still against using the calc. The amount of evidence against the result currently outweighs it.

Aight, want me to message some more CGM walls? I'm not tooooooo invested in trying to change your opinion here with a multi page debate, I'm fine leaving it at agree to disagree and just get other opinions
- 31,253
- 27,478
I mean, how many visuals contradicting the result do you think would be appropriate before you think the calc isn't accurate?

Ummmmmm that's a good question, I don't know if I really have an answer to that question. Ig it depends on the situation. Ik this isn't what you're implying but I wouldn't be opposed to taking like the 5 or so other ways to measure Konoha based on canon character sizes averaged with the FoS method.

Okay. I've put off doing a reread of Naruto for a while, and I've got some time off coming at the end of this week. I'll do a reread of Naruto and gather some scans as I go if you don't mind putting this off for a few days.

Sorry, ended up out of commission around the time I planned to get into this
Long story short though, I don't think there is enough support for the calc to be taken at face value as being the most optimal way to calculate Konoha's size.

So you throwing away this idea
- 31,253
- 27,478
I think even without doing an in-depth reread of the series, there's a lot more evidence stacked against the village being 120 km in diameter than there is supporting it. If there's additional evidence that can support that figure, I'd like to see it.
But for now my current stance is not be in favor of the calc.

Seems fine to me, Konoha is like the capital of the land of fire, so it makes sense it is city size
- 31,253
- 27,478
Is it ever referred to as the capital?

I am not sure, but it is the only notable village in the whole country of fire, and also the largest, that much was stated
- 31,253
- 27,478
Do you have a scan?
PrinceofPein
Username Only- 9,053

I do not have a scan, but it was around where they were explaining that there are 5 countries and each has its own ninja village xoxoxoxo.
But can stuffs from Boruto be used to calculate the size?

The village got larger by Boruto era I thought, but maybe?
- 31,253
- 27,478
A lot of development took place over the village, yeah. Whole bunch of new skyscrapers and so on.
- 11,908
- 11,525
I’m not into the idea of Konoha being city-sized in population or even sheer size. At least not the pre Boruto era, we see a lot of shots and they’re clearly not a city, more like a town or whatever. Boruto era Konoha is big as **** tho, should be a city imo.
- 31,253
- 27,478
Tbh, it's not really about whether we classify Konoha as a city, or town, or village, but if the calculated figure is consistent with every other visual of the village and I haven't seen a single piece of supporting evidence yet that would make me reconsider this being an outlier.
- 15,895
- 11,151
so whats the consensus?
- 31,253
- 27,478
I don't know if there is a "consensus" exactly, but I'm still against the calc being used based on everything else in the panel contradicting Konoha being 60+ km in radius.
- 31,253
- 27,478
I don't know if Therefir is familiar with Naruto.
- 10,927
- 19,030
Could always just message his wall and ask him if he's familiar or not tbh.

What is the end goal of this revision by the way? Because a size by itself doesn't change anything.

- #115
Everyone’s favorite @Wrath_Of_Itachi has some calcs that use Konoha, and there’s stuff like Pain’s CST and the Six Tails Bijuudama. So ig a few calc upgrades would be the end goal?
- 31,253
- 27,478
I see. Well, I won't speak on any of those directly since I don't know the details for sure but I'm positive that there would be better ways of calcing those than relying on the Forest of Death.

- #117
Yeah I've got no real comment there either, since they'd rely on this being accepted first anyway.
- 31,253
- 27,478
At present I am against the calc; the panel that is the basis for the scaling is contradicted multiple times.
- 10,927
- 19,030
It won't be anything until more Calc members, or knowledgeable staff members on Naruto actually comment on the thread as we're currently at a standstill rn.
