Part 1: The Unknown Statistics
I have sat back on the "Unknown" status of many of the Medaka Box statistics with the assumption that it was not merely for show. It has recently come to my attention that there is a major lack of concensus on what level the abilities actually work on, and that there must be some note that the abilities such as All Fiction and Book Maker should have "Unknow, Atleast Low 2-C" as apposed to just "Unknown."
Here is my case for the "Atleast Low 2-C status." We know that:
1) Either multiple universes or dimensions exist within Medaka Box. See Ajimu's skill list and Medaka's adventures
2) All Fiction can erase all of existence
3) Ajimu exists a step above the rest of Medaka Box (expcet Hanten)
4) Book Maker and All Fiction can work on Ajimu even without her consent
Due to this, All Fiction and Book Maker work on Atleast a 4D scale
Part 2: The Hero
I believe "The Hero" should be listed on Medaka and Iihiko's profiles, and should be listed under abilities. Even if the basis for it is essentially plot armor, I think it has enough grounding and properties to atleast warrent a mention on the profiles. For those who do not know about Medaka Box, I'll fill you in. After rereading the series and analysing it multiple time throw, I have written a brief Analysis of "The Hero."
"The Hero" from Medaka Box. It is both the meta "ability," or perhaps it would be better to describe it as a status, of plot armor but also an actual power with actual properties. In essence, if all beings are bound to the whims of the plot and fate, then The Hero is the "status," to always have the whims flow in your favor. Even Plot manipulation will not stop it, only flat out nullification of all plot and fate based powers will.
The Hero is not a binary status. Characters can have lesser versions. Characters such as Medaka or Iihiko have an absolute status as The Hero, and Zenkichi would as well but Devil Style stops its proper functioning. Kamome Tsurubami has a lesser version of The Hero; he has a "Dark Hero" status. He is closer to being the main character, but does not have absolute plot armor. Just like other Edge Lord Heroes, he can lose on the grand scale from time to time (Think of characters like Guts). Kumagawa also has some level of The Hero, but it is unknown exactly how his version works and may even force him to lose. [Here is an album of all my scans to cite my sources.]
Part 3: Comparable To Itself
This was brought up once before by Jordanbairdcreaturemaster97, but it did not get the attention it deserved so I will bring up his original points again here. I will bring up his same general points and summerize them but change some of the minor things that got agreed on.
In almost every fight in Medaka Box, the combatants are comparable and can physically match eachother in hand to hand combat with very few exceptions (End God Mode Medaka and Iihiko are some of the few rare cases). everyone can trade blows in DC and Durability and the only implications of superiority loop back in on themselved (e.g. supposedly Akune is superior to Medaka, who is superior to Oudo, who is superior to Koga, who is superior to Akune)
Hax, intellect, and techniques, are what decide fights, not raw stats. Thus all characters (unless something obviously points to an exception) are physically comparable. What rare destructive feats there are should plug right into the scaling chain, since usually no fight is won through raw stats.
You can look at his examples of what feats would plug into this chain and which should be exempt in the original discussion. Addressing these are not my intention for this section
Part 4: The Good Loser
Some Kumagawa ability additions:
Kumagawa can spawn his Screws directly inside people to bypass durability, this should be listed under his DC as such
Kumagawa's time erasure should be listed as Psuedo Time Stop along with Psuedo Teleportation, since he is erasing time
I would like to list Kumagawa erasing the concept of color under his feats. Conceptual Manipulation should be added under his abilities. Unlike most Anime and Manga, the events of the Good Loser Kumagawa anime episode are canon
Kumagawa resists Telepathy and Mental abilities
Part 5: The Non-Humans
Some things that should be added to Hanten and Ajimu's profiles
Ajimu should have transduality as one of her abilities, and Hanten should have it listed as a possible ability on his profile. A case for transduality (you can ignore the things regarding other stuff on that post)
Hanten should have Time Stop, Photon Manipulation, and Space Displacement listed under potential abilities. Since Ajimu mentioned they were abilities he could create
This picture of Hanten's first appearence in front view should be added to a gallery on his profile
Part 6: Changing Public Image
Many of the Images for profiles should be changed for the profiles, and new tabs should be added for several of the characters. This is less important but I felt it should be addressed
Medaka: We should add new tabs for her at increments through the series. First off, her main image should be this one and not that god awful picture of her in her summer uniform. A tab should also be added for her design in the Jet Black Wedding/Unknown Shiranui arc since her design is different enough that I think it is warrented
We should look for color images to replace the black and white profile pictures we have for a few of the character, especially the ones ripped straight from the Manga
Ok this was quite a long revision post, so thanks for reading it. Thought? Opinions? Critisism?
