So I’ve just finished rewatching all of Mao Mao and I’ve got some big changes in mind for my favorite feline hero. Puss in Boots, you are remembered. Here’s his current profile and the one with my proposed updates.

There’s some general stuff like added quotes and images. But there’s also tons of new abilities, upgrades to things like range and stamina, and a tier change. I also switched around some abilities to make them look nicer and a bit more chronologically accurate to the time they’re introduced. Now this won’t actually change Mao Mao’s recorded peak since there’s no new calcs as of now. But I placed him firmly at High 7-C since he endured a breath attack from the Ice Dragon while weakened from his sickness. This shouldn’t be too controversial since he has a casual 8-B feat and there’s stuff like atomization and crater feats not calculated right now that could be good supports.

There’s also his non-physical interaction from deflecting lasers (check clip 4). I think they should count as light given they’re stated multiple times to be lasers, move in a straight line, and reflect off of Geraldine which is metal. One in the fourth clip even dissipates into seemingly photons. This also means Mao Mao should be given calculations for reacting to the lasers multiple times in the episode. Even in the first episode, Adorabat who’s depicted as weaker than Mao Mao, pushes him out of the way of an already fired laser which could lead to a huge speed upgrade for him via scaling above. Not to mention, a background character dodges multiple lasers and missiles in the second clip.

These changes I think will make Mao Mao better represented and more impressive debate wise than how he’s currently depicted.

I’ve also went ahead and made Adorabat a page. She has some issues with speed and LS though with the lack of calcs. If the tier change gets accepted, she’ll be placed at firmly High 7-C as well for taking a hit from the Ice Dragon after being frozen by supposedly it’s breath and damaging people who can take Mao Mao’s attacks which scale to the Ice Dragon.

Agree: Javen, LephyrTheRevanchist, Propellus

Neutral:

Disagree: LephyrTheRevanchist
(SOL), Propellus (SOL)

You need to add references, as shown here

Couple powers don't seem to have scans, so I'd prefer if these can be added too.
I’ll grab more scans. Though I put episode titles in the Imgur links, so are references really necessary? The current profile lacks them so I assumed decent explanation and titles would do.

Old profiles were left alone because of the difficulty of implementing references to all, specially without proper supporters

But references are indeed mandatory, as read here
Always include the References section in character pages, explanation pages, information blogs, and verse-specific powers and abilities pages to source all the important information covered within them. To learn more regarding how to use them, read the References page. New pages without that section may be deleted after ample warning if no adequate justification (such as the series lacking any useful demarcations, or none of the justifications on the page coming from only one specific part of the source material) is provided in the edit summary or in response to inquiry, and no indication that they will be added is given.
 
potential light scaling?
I don't think the clips presented support lightspeed scaling.

The only requirement it seems to fit is being reflected by Mao Mao's sword, but it looks more like he is physically hitting them instead of literal mirror-like reflection. Those same lasers explode when hitting something, as shown in the first clip (I think they are the same?).

So the lack of showing or statement of further laser properties make me hesitant.

See the requirements for light speed lasers here, maybe there are other clips that could be used?

The rest of the profile seems fine, though I have to question now why is the Lunar Dash scaled to light speed (I know it's the same in the current profile, but if there's evidence I'd like to see it)

I’m unsure if those lasers are the same because the one from Orangusnake’s ship is disconnected from the one coming out of the tube. They’re the same color but the ship was powered by a gem cell which was destroyed, which is why he wants the one in the Aerocycle. So they can’t be powered by the same source meaning they are likely different.

As for reasons the lasers not from the ship could be SOL, there’s the ones from the Mega Mech in the third clip bouncing off Orangusnake’s energy shield which seems reflective and a beam from the laser tube seemingly dissipating into photons at 0:26 in the fourth clip. And they consistently seem to go in straight lines. That’s all I have though.

Lunar Lash is likely SOL since Geraldine is stated to be the blade of everlasting light and attack with the element. That’s also not changed from the current profile
 
Normally, I'd honestly tell you to bold all these abilities as they offer better readability than it just being a whole wall of text, but I won't force you on that one. I'm not seeing enough qualifications for those lasers being supposedly real light, so I'm gonna disagree on that one. But everything else is fine though
 
2 votes is enough to add this since it’s just affecting two profiles right?
 
Perfect, I’ll apply this soon so the thread can be closed. I’m really glad to shed light on one of my favorite shows.
