Yoriichi does not know every martial arts in existence lmao stop it.
Okay but this isn't even skill or combat oriented dawg this is just computing possibilities in a fight (Most of them being useless), why would anyone even do this
It’s the most advanced form of analytical prediction? Which is skill? Like don’t get mad just because Demon Slayer can’t handle some real big boy skill slop, this is skill.
The former thing?
Because just because someone can do it doesn't mean they're good at fighting, and even if they are, predicting every possible move is in the realm of magic and not skill because of the multitude of variables you DON'T have access to you need to compute every singe possibility in a fight.
So yea...magic.
Nope, it’s skill. Well, logically it shouldn’t be skill, but it is in fact skill in the verses where it happens, so it’s skill.
But if you wanna go by what’s logically skill or not, Akaza’s compass sure as hell ain’t skill (tbh it sounds like it ain’t skill even when under this stretched criteria but eh Demon Slayer needs
something)
This is also just magic
Again, dont hate the player, hate the game. You wanted to talk skillslop, well this is what other actually skilled verses consider skill.
************* Batman has shit that is straight up magic to us, but in-universe it’s all treated as skill, so it is.
Akaza's compass rendered Tanjiro's future smell obsolete so there is that?
No, I mean literally seeing into the future if your timeline to tell what someone is going to do, or reading someone’s mind to hear them say “I’m going to perform [x] move”, and either of those scenarios outskilling it. It’s bullshit, but that’s skillslop for you.
Also for the mind reading part it has to work on someone’s instinctive, non-thinking actions as well.
Yet again, welcome to skillslop
This is legit the only one he meets, and it’s why I put him in D tier. Tbh he could be in E tier but I think him reinventing swordsmanship is enough to push him over to D.
Bro your requirements suck
Like nothing here is really more functional than what Akaza's compass does.
Sounds to me like you’re in shock after hearing what real skillslop is like. Don’t worry, I felt the same way at first, it’ll pass.
The funny part is those don't even include the completely impossible skill feats.
Like dodging rain in a rainstorm, sand in a sandstorm,
This one ain’t skill tho unless you got some nutty Body Control like the Pillar Men and you’re individually weaving in between each particle. If you’re just a normal dude get out.
keep up with a character 400x faster than you with raw instinct and talent.
Valid skillslop
Phase your blade through your opponent's cells through sheer precision.
Valid skillslop
Know not only every martial art in earth but the entire universe at mastery level.
Valid skillslop
Sasaki Kojirou's from RoR analytical prediction is also regarded as top 1 in the wiki other than actual godly stuff like omniscience.
Realistically his is pretty good but not top 1, there’s mfs who can predict like every possible movement of the subatomic particles in a fight, not just the opponent but in the environment itself.
