Frieren: Beyond Journey's End speed downgrade

[BadSystems]

Neutral for now, but prefer to see context of the lightning in question.

We have no standard on electricity speed, there's been no real care given to it. So this ends up being a case by case thing. And while I understand we have strict standards for a reason, I don't think there's need for them here because at a certain level, a reader is expected to be able to make logical assumptions without outright statements or clear-case showings. If a character is using an attack that is named after lightning and resembles electricity, I think scaling the speed of that attack to electricity at least should be fine unless we get something to contradict it. And the basis of this CRT isn't that there is a contradiction in characters being below the listed speeds of electricity, it's that no one ever proved it was real electricity which I just don't think is important in this instance.

Mark me down as disagree.

Have either of you had a change of heart? I’d recommend reading Zabazab’s most recent post for a general sum-up of the problem.
