How much does Samurai Jack weigh?

Not open for further replies.
you can use the weigth of an average katana, but you would need to research about that. But like a said before, the sword can even do more damage due to the edge
 
Using Wikipedia's value, it would have a KE of 6.591×10^16 J/15.7528681 megatons of TNT. So, City level.
 
Could be higher since Katanas are very sharp (over 10K layers of metal), but our system doesn't deal with that; also, not sure if that is an outlier, the authors hasn't the intention of make Jack an walking nuke
 
The feat didn't involve Jack swinging his sword though.

The reason the feat applied to Guts was because he had to move his sword at the calculated speed.
 
First of all, did Jack move just his arms, or did he move his entire body as well during the feat? If it is the latter, you actually can count the KE of the body moving at the specified speed; RWBY's Nevermore kinetic energy calc (MAPSK's calc) was based on that method, and the verse was upgraded because of that calc.

So, I watched the video for this, and Jack does move his entire body. The only difference is that he is carrying a gauntlet that seems to dwarf him in size. Considering that the actually moved his entire body that fast, while carrying that giant gauntlet, it makes Jack's KE that much higher.
 
I not sure about this, this is only his reaction speed and if we upgrade him to City level by that we'll create an inconsistence, Jack has been damaged by less and he can make that much damage. I suggest to only use KE when the speed has been stated and is travel/jump/combat speed
 
This is an important matter (not the specific feat itself but the way we treat them), can someone please close this until we solve this matter.
