"As heavy as any I've ever felt" isn't "among the heaviest blows". He's in that ballpark but not at the top.
The same reason how he's still a demigod, albeit immortal and as powerful as a Brother King. His base state likely just surpassed his prior self.
We can also add this on Mjolnir's page in BFR's reasoning:-
That one is actually pretty vague, it could just be Odin's magic in play alongside Mjolnir.
The journal entry specifically says "As heavy as any I have felt", not "the heaviest". "Heaviest" is never mentioned even once. Like Planck said, Thor's in that ballpark, but not at the top.
He fought against Hades in a similarly depowered state just as he had regained the BoO, which at this point was completely drained and would not light up without either Kratos or Zeus using it.
He did, but for some reason he still retains his god-killing strength. How or why, we don't know. All that is known is that he has it lying dormant in him, waiting to come out with a vengeance, something he has to constantly hold back and restrain with all his mental might.
Like Planck said, same reason he's still a demigod for all intents and purposes, albeit a top-tier Demigod with immortality added into the mix.
I know, I just didn't remember the exact quote so I paraphrased.
Makes sense
Ok.
Ok, thanks for explaining.
It's a perception question, not a speed question TBF.
Ah. So, unanswerable?
He honestly might've but his immortality barred him. Likely Athena not wanting to deal with an ascended Kratos. Wouldn't be surprised if he'd have ascended if he died during Ragnarok.
Occam's Razor. Odin travels between the 9 realms via his Ravens (which require consent, as stated by Mimir). He also usually casts spells verbally. However, he didn't do anything like that when hurling the Mjolnir at Thrud.
Nah, Odin says "I saved her". That implies he saved her, not Fenrir.
Ultimately, we have no idea what happened to her afterwards. She could've actually been sent to Midgard (though Mjolnir landing in Alfheim puts a wrench in that). Or she could've just been sent far away and rescued by the Valkyries or Fenrir.
Like Dienomite said, there's also Fenrir to consider here.
He could be saying "he saved her" as in getting her out of the battlefield to garner sympathy and still play the good guy. But we really don't know what happened to her besides that she was separated from Mjolnir so it's too much to assume that that was supposed to represent BFR.
Also that one old lady who literally had no powers at all and yet fell hundreds of meters and survived for a good couple minutes
Or frying pans.
I think a developer statement? That and the fact that the Olympians are stronger than they were during the Titanomachy.
Wasn't that because they got stronger via the prayers of the mortals? Instead of getting stronger by simply aging?
There's that but the Olympians get stronger in their own ways. Prayer, accelerated development like Zeus and Ares, soul absorption like Hades etc.
So the statement only apply to the Olympians? The Titans, Norse Gods or any other Pantheon are excluded?
Only the Olympians showcase this in a blatant manner. The Titans also get stronger from prayer. The Aesir and Vanir don't seem dependent on prayer and their gods just seem to be the most physically and magically powerful members of their civilization (like Gna, Freyr, Freya, Njord etc. for Vanir and Heimdall, Odin, Thor etc. for Aesir).
Samengl going With Mcu thor
Antagonist's Wiki has Death listed under omnipotence in power.
Based.
DB themselves still probably think Kratos is weak fodder.
Heard they acknowledge Uranus scaling so maybe it'll be better.
When the **** was this?!
The novels.
The reseachers are open to the idea of Uni Kratos and said if it's good he wins
Seriously the hell?
Goku outhaxxes Asura tbh.
