Major My Hero Academia Speed Downgrade! (Probably).

[Maitreya12]

Radio waves are light speed -> Air Cannon's speed is unknown -> Radio waves travel at the same speed as the Air Cannon and permeate throughout it -> Therefore, the Air Cannon is also light speed

And where did you get the bolded, because it wasn’t calculated and it wasn’t stated either.

So that wasn’t solved, it was assumed.

We see in the anime that the radio waves appeared/traveled the same time/speed as the attack.

We also see in the anime that Stars is in a wildly different position than what the calculation assumes. Would you like to differ to that as well?

The big problem here is that the calculation assumes far too much:

- It assumes Stars is at the very epicenter of the attack despite there being movement and a near full page of chatter before it was fired in between.

- And it assumes the air canon is traveling at the same speed as the radio waves.

When differing to the anime for the feat, it depicts it in an entirely different manner than the calc asserts.

And only by picking and choosing what assumptions you want to discard and which ones you want to keep, even if those assumptions are falling under what would be classified as a “contradiction” to the manga, do we get the number the calc measured.

Which to me seems like a hugely artificial inflation of the feat, as nothing in the manga ever depicts Stars where the calc asserts nor does it depicts the speed of which the air canon traveled at.

We... literally see as much. Idk what you want me to say here. It's shown via the purple lightning permeating through the entire thing

1. Cause she is via everything from the last couple of pages
2. Cause it is as we've explained but it seems its just a agree to disagree thing atp
3. That's why we are using the manga as it takes precedent


This is 4 pages now can we just let staff give their final weigh ins on this since its circular atp and let it be done. Because neither side will convince the other here and that's been made plain I think

I will say, I don’t think the Air Cannon or Heavy Payload would decrease the Radio Waves speed by any notable degree

It does seem nonsensical for me that Shiggy would intentionally slow down his attack

Where should we put you? Agree, disagree, or neutral?

1) And where did you get the bolded, because it wasn’t calculated and it wasn’t stated either.

So that wasn’t solved, it was assumed.

2) We also see in the anime that Stars is in a wildly different position than what the calculation assumes. Would you like to differ to that as well?

3) The big problem here is that the calculation assumes far too much:

i) - It assumes Stars is at the very epicenter of the attack despite there being movement and a near full page of chatter before it was fired in between.

ii) - And it assumes the air canon is traveling at the same speed as the radio waves.

4) When differing to the anime for the feat, it depicts it in an entirely different manner than the calc asserts.

And only by picking and choosing what assumptions you want to discard and which ones you want to keep, even if those assumptions are falling under what would be classified as a “contradiction” to the manga, do we get the number the calc measured.

1) But it was directly shown in the anime. So no, it's not an assumption.

2) Because if there's a contradiction between the 2 mediums, the MANGA will always take priority. The anime however can still be useful for clarifying things that we cannot get from the manga. Like WHEN SNS JUMPED or IF THE EM WAVES TRAVELED ALONGSIDE THE ATTACK. Yk, simple things like that.

3)
i) 2 pages before the attack is fired we see that Shigaraki and sns are right across each other. And we're never shown sns and her jet moving from that line of sight. And on the page of the attack there just so fortunately happens to be a jet RIGHT ACROSS SHIGARAKI, almost like signifying where sns was. You know, because she has always been right across him.

ii) As we've already said, that is clearly clarified in the anime.

4) So no, it's not just random pick and choosing. We have always given a priority to the manga. So if there are any contradictions with the manga and other mediums we will always go with the showings of the manga. But in cases where the manga leaves things unclear, the anime can then help us clear things up. Like we've already said.

Plus, Shigaraki is not stupid. He's actually a genius. Especially with AFO. And he's not slower than Star and Stripe. So why would he not aim it (the attack) directly towards Star and Stripe (his opponent)?

I disagree with the OP based on the premise

Fu**ing hell this is still going on. You guys running in circles or something.

nah leaving it to votes atp

 

[CloverDragon03]

Man there's no need to comment all the time about how this keeps going on or whatever, it's just derailing the thread

 

[CloverDragon03]

nah leaving it to votes atp

Frankly a 0-4 vote after nearly 48 hours should probably be enough for closure

 

[Planck69]

This has been unanimously rejected. I'll close the thread.
