Not really. No staff member other than me said anything about the topic and I'm the one who brought it up in the first place.

I guess I could. @CloverDragon03
I'll ask Armorchompy too since he previously commented in this thread. @Armorchompy

Yeah, that's fine. The likes of, for example, Rui and Hinokami Kagura Tanjiro should scale above the Father Spider Demon
- 5,123

I've updated the verse and the Lower Moons and those who are comparable are scaling to 0.008 Tons now with the 8-C's scaling to 100x of that. The Lower Moons and the demons above them have now all been changed to at least Class 25 if they didn't already have a rating superior to that. This still leaves the matter of scaling the demon slayers to the Lifting Strength of the demons they are comparable to.
This might go hand in hand with a Lifting Strength downgrade for Gyutaro.
There is also still this issue left especially if we want to make the specifications for the amounts of tons on the Lifting Strength section of the Kimetsu no Yaiba verse page uniform. Given that 1 ton is equal to 1000 kilograms and that this is the logic that Spider Demon Father's tree swinging feat's tons specification follows I'd say that 17199 kg can be noted as 17.2 Tons and 81621 kg as 81.62 Tons.

Since the characters' Lifting Strength generally improves as they get stronger and Makomo said that Total Concentration Breathing is used to match demons in strength which is also backed up by Rengoku and Tanjiro's feats against Akaza and Gyutaro respectively I'd scale the demon slayers to the demons they are comparable to unless they explicitly lack arm strength like Shinobu and Obanai.
Since Tengen was poisoned at the very beginning of the fight against Gyutaro and got noticeably weakened I would instead just have Gyutaro upscale from Enmu.

@CloverDragon03 @Armorchompy Do you have any opinions regarding this as Calc Group members? It's a small change but I'd still like to get this done.
CloverDragon03, you've argued a little bit for demon slayers scaling to demons in regards to Lifting Strength, so is there anything you have to say about my arguments regarding the Lifting Strength scaling?

Yeah sure. You can do both if you like, same way some verse pages list ap both in joules and tons of tnt.
- 5,123
- 2,633
I think that using two different kinds of tons values without clearly marking which is which would be too confusing, so I'd just stick to one.
- 16,172
- 12,705
not really, you can just say "Tons of TNT" and that's clearly AP, that's enough marking
- 5,123
- 2,633
What would the other kind of tons be?
- 16,172
- 12,705
just tons in weight, for lifting strength, i assume
- 5,123
- 2,633
I'm specifically talking about the Lifting Strength section though and not the Attack Potency section.
- 16,172
- 12,705
Aah, my bad. We usually just mean metric tons when we say tons here.
- 5,123
- 2,633
I guess I'll have to make this more clear.
- 13,330
- 21,304
It's purely cosmetic so I don't mind changing it to say 17.2 Tons if that's what you'd prefer. Though if I wanted to show my personal preference, I'd prefer to leave it in kg.
Yeah I agree with this. Demon Slayers should scale to the demons they fight and vice versa except for those who show otherwise, like Shinobu
- 5,123
- 2,633
They are currently not denoted as kg though. Instead they are denoted as somewhat dubious tons values like 17199 being somehow 19 Tons 81621 being 90 Tons. You just have to look at that specific section on the verse page and the calculations in order to see that.
I guess I can apply that change then.
- 5,123

I've applied the Lifting Strength scaling though there are a few things that I've noticed while doing so that I would like to discuss here:
- I've given Tanjiro's second key's Lifting Strength section a "higher with Dance of the Fire God" since the first key scaling Tanjiro's Lifting Strength to Rui while he is using Dance of the Fire God implies that it strengthen Tanjiro's Lifting Strength which would also be consistent Total Concentration Breathing allowing a human to match the strength of a demon.
- Muzan has at least Class 100 Lifting Strength and with the Lifting Strength scaling between demon slayers and demons this would scale to Tanjiro's Post-Sun Breathing Mastery and Demon Form keys as well as Yoriichi. I would like to see what others have to say about that before I apply a change like that.
- I've noticed that Zenitsu's Lifting Strength justification for his first key sounds a lot like stuff that Inosuke did while I don't recall Zenitsu doing any of that. Did someone do a mistake here?

There was disagreement in the past whether jumping counts as LS or just AP, but there is good precedence now that jumping counts as LS.
So the Class K Rengoku feat should be valid.
The databook also explicitly attributes the train lifting to his stepping force.
- 16,172
- 12,705
Leaping does count as LS but a dash is a bit more strike-like than a jump, which is definitely a push. I'm not sure if "stepping force" is LS in my eyes.
- 5,123
- 2,633
Rengoku could technically use the strength of legs to support him with pushing or lifting something. The question would be whether or not he can continuously output that force he displayed in that quick jump if I understand this right.
I'd also still like input regarding this.
- 5,123

Bump.

Not sure about the third point. The first two points seem fine to me
- 5,123

Okay.
