The anime had Malevolent Shrine turn Mahoraga into dust immediately and he healed from that which is a Mid-High regen feat 😭
Isn't it a rule that we can't make separate profiles for the anime version unless they have unique powers they don't have in the manga?
 
Stuff like that is allowed normally when the visuals of the manga aren't clear enough to get scale and such. I think we have old MHA calc which uses the anime for a feat Bakugo pulls off because figuring out scale was a mess. I won't act like I know the specifics behind this calc, but due to One's own style being on the more amateurish side I imagine the anime was allowed because it was just clearer.

And while I can understand frustration with the standard, it exist primarily because of what's being asked for here. The idea that the anime version will inflate the value of calculations and push stats far beyond what was intended with the manga. That's also why its asked for that direct statements from the author emerge in cases like this that essentially say the anime is the intended form for consumption.
Actually, from my understanding of the canon (feel free to correct me if I am wrong), if the anime can be considered secondary then extended fight scenes are fair game so long as there are no major plot contradictions. The most relevant text from the canon page being

When different source materials give different versions of the same feat, and by that they contradict each other in the depiction of the feat, the primary canon takes precedence over the secondary canon.
and

Entirely new feats of tertiary canon, like for example new abilities, should be disregarded. Details added to existing fight scenes, such as damage caused to the surroundings, can be accepted for text based media like books.
Which directly infers that "entirely new feats" of secondary canon and details added to fight scenes, are okay for secondary canon so long as it isn't the same feat calced in the primary source and the results don't heavily contradict the narrative (such as place, time, etc).

I understand that this is a "vague" distinction, but it's not precisely like that. Unless the anime version establishes a separate narrative canonicity, creating anime profiles is not permitted, as they are essentially adaptations from the original manga.
 
As far as I know Greg isn’t approving anything. The production asks him for feedback, and he says he gave them a half assed feedback. And it’s really half assed, dude said “as long as something something it should be fine”.

Clearly there’s no in depth collaboration between the anime production and Greg.

Again this is the only time I saw Greg stating something about the anime.

Given anime Mahoraga has powers his manga version doesn't, I'm pretty sure making him a profile is fair game

Just for us to say "Maho's adaption allows him to grow gills when adapting to water" like this is something that is probably possible in manga version, they just presented it differently. Like we're not gonna give Sukuna a whole new page cuz he and Maho were basically flying as well lol
 
For me,

Shibuya is the only S tier arc. Like its build up and how it ends, as close to perfect as an arc can get for me.

A tier, I put Hidden Inventory, Tokyo Colony No.1, Vs Mahito, Perfect Preparation, Origin of Obedience
B tier, Itadori's Extermination, Goodwill, Sakurajima Colony, Tokyo Colony No.2, Sendai Colony,
C tier, JJK 0 and Fearsome Womb

I mean sukuna has psudo flight the guy has shown the ability to air hop so I mean its canon
 
Muzan is interesting in concept and backstory, it's just that he doesn't get as much time to actually do things.
I mean his personality for a final villain simply doesn't work he is just a 1000 year old man child that gets pissy when things don't go his way

And I mean at least the writer themselves where able to admit it by drawing this.

perfect representation of what muzan is, aka a giant ******* baby
 
I was epecting more from Shibuya when I was reading. People hyped it up so much, talked to some friends and they said it's on pair with the best arcs in Naruto (which is imo literally all arcs from Part 1) and I was disappointed.
