percieving/=/ reaction monkey..
Wait... Wtf. I thought perceiving was seeing something or able to keep track on something 🤔

This is her reacting to luffy

Isn't this perceiving?

Everything that u sent was a blitz
Speed Blitz is the act of one attacking their opponent before they are capable of perceiving or reacting to them. Blitzing is different than outpacing, where a character is simply faster than the other. A blitz is more like an all around outclassing in speed.
 
Their perception > initial reaction (like widening their eye's or having an "oh **** face") >/= Kizaru LS attack >>> proper reaction (like moving to dodge or to block, or activating their ability).
 
A regular human could widen their eyes upon someone firing a bullet toward them, but we don't say the person can react to the bullet. The same thing happens in One Piece and other anime as well, where someone will be able to raise their eyes and give a shocked expression, but we still consider it as them being speedblitzed because they're not able to properly defend themselves and show no semi-comparable feats of speed in that bout aside from the expression they give.

Well to me... Reaction is you reacting to something that's happening, and if you don't react at all it's a blitz

It also says on the reactiong speed page
Reaction speed is the speed at which a character can react to an event or action. This usually only grants a short movement upon reaction, whereas several movements at the same speed switch it to combat speed.

No, when the page refers to perceiving something as being grounds for reactions, they mean something more akin to Character A and Character B fighting at high speeds, and Character C can perceive what's happening in the fight. C's reactions are on par with A's and B's.

Now if instead of the scenario above, Character A and Character B were to suddenly stop fighting, rush Character C, causing Character C to give a face of shock before being pummeled without being able to react, dodge, block, counter, etc., then Character C's reaction speed wouldn't scale to theirs.

The difference between that example and this is that humans tend to react to people pulling the trigger, not the bullet itself, where as here they're responding (eye's widening and having shocked expressions) to Kizaru, who is the bullet himself in this case.

If we go by definitions, just widening your eye's at something occuring can be considered a reaction (even if it's a very minor one).

That's what I've been saying for forever... And they think that's perceiving

Here brook could perceive Zoro vs Ryuma while Franky couldn't

Even if that is a reaction, it's not one that means that a feat no longer becomes a blitz. Something that menial doesn't qualify due to:
  1. Being interpreted as cinematic timing.
  2. Not implying that they can perceive (as in being able to somewhat keep up with in terms of sight or sensory ability) the action on a level to where they'd be comparable to it.
  3. Not implying that they have the physical ability to react to someone.

I couldn't understand that 🤔😅
 
I'm not saying it's not a blitz cause I agree that it practically is since while Kizaru attack might not be faster than their initial reaction, he's too fast for them to properly react or respond to his attacks. It's a blitz, it's just not the highest level of blitz or an insane blitz.

That I agree with... But what I say is... That it's not fully a blitz which to me and this site thinks is correct

Looked through the panels again: Naw, still no way a one-off facial expression is grounds to minimize how much an individual blitzes. Kizaru was literally proceeding to stomp several people, all of whom could have started having reactions at different rates before Kizaru decided to attack them. Keep in mind, he wasn't just bodying one dude, it was several. The longer it takes for him to get to another person because he's busy fodderizing another individual = more time for the individual to begin reacting.

So in conclusion, even if they did make a change of facial expression before getting hit, it doesn't mean that they're facial reactions are faster than Kizaru.

Also, joke time: let's add FTL facial reactions to pages lol. No offense, but the thought came to me and I thought it was pretty funny.

Also they could only react when kizaru were near them... Which would be less impressive if the could react to him from example a mile away

The closest range he can reacted, the feats would be much impressive.
No... If you react to for example a bullet thats 5m away from you, it's less impressive if you reacted to the bullet from 10m away... If you dodge a bullet that you reacted 5m away from you, it would be more impressive movement speed than if you reacted to the bullet 10m away and dodged it
 
Projectile dodging feats calc is just term, even if someone can't dodge it, their recation can be calculated with same method.
If you react to for example a bullet thats 5m away from you, it's less impressive if you reacted to the bullet from 10m away
The second feat is faster reaction speed which is how people can aim dodge and be slower than the thing their dodging.
 
Noticed something:

On Ryuma's profile it says this: Far Higher with Hanauta Sancho: Yahazu Giri

Ryuma is scaling normally to Zoro yet with that technique seems to imply he's far faster than him. Yet Zoro outsped him with Dragon Blaze which isn't a speed boosting technique.

I agree the technique does seem to be faster than Brook/Ryuma's other arsenal, and Zoro and Ryuma were shown realtive prior to the dragon blaze. This to me seems to imply that Zoro simply got faster through his reactive power level, meaning Brook and Ryuma shouldn't scale to the Zoro who performed the light dodge or sabaody feats.

Ryuma was 2 alphabets from hitting Zoro...
Yet Zoro outsped him with Dragon Blaze which isn't a speed boosting technique.
You sure it's not?
Because it looks like Zoro is using his leg to move a certain way through the sky

Btw the far higher comes from these...

Depends, this is a weird topic ngl

The feat is from the Kuma fight, where Usopp said he was tired af and it’d be risky to fight, showcased by his breathing patterns.

Heck, he was holding Shisui, a heavier sword, which would’ve made him slower.

And everyone reacted to his movements afterwards but Franky couldn’t react to his fight with Ryuma.

I think Ryuma should scale above an exhausted Zoro
 
a skill feat from Zoro
Didn't think about this, could be the case.

Fair enough
 
Man… I want Oda to just give us all the info on every attack and a power system or power lvl of haki… I need to stop derailing
 
Any more changes to the sandbox that need to happen before I continue with my analysis?
 
Okay, the next calc I want to focus on is this one: https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/U...Zoro_vanishes_from_100_people's_line_of_sight

While the calc isn't mathematically wrong, I have issues with the assumptions behind it and the use of the 220 frames per second figure.

As detailed in this calc, we don't really use this figure anymore and I've seen it be replaced for this reason before in several other speed calcs.

However, using this value is incorrect, and makes for an rather large highball. The issue is that the value the calc uses is absolute perception speed in perfect darkroom conditions (perception speed is highly dependent on contrast and lighting) with subjects who genetically and training-wise have the best vision in the world.

In contrast, several other studies have shown that perception speed in decent lighting for the average young adult is at best around 13 ms (~1/75th of a second).

These characters aren't known to possess peak human perception, and weren't in test conditions with the expectation that he would disappear.

Using 13 ms as the timeframe instead gives us Zoro's speed as 4479.23077 m/s (Mach 13.05898183673 - Hypersonic+)

I could put together a new blog post for this.
 
To counter this point.

These guys are hundreds of ridiculously skilled trained assassins in a verse where the average human is like 10 times higher than irl people.

That doesn't mean the average human in One Piece has ten times higher visual acuity than IRL people, or that these assassins are comparable to fighter pilots under test conditions.

I think it would be safer to switch over to the 13 ms value for timeframe.
