Potential Genos upgrade?

[Arceus0x]

So there is this cool scene

Saitama throws a punch at Genos but doesn't hit him and the shockwave of the punch ravages a huge land formation.

Thing is, considering Saitama didn't land the punch and the shockwave was what caused the damage.

Here's the thing, Genos was right in front of the punch meaning most of the shockwave would have to pass through him before reaching the land formation and thus he'd tank most of it first. Wouldn't this warrant some form of upgrade if we calc the feat?

Good question, the wind does spread out more as it goes so geno probably tanked a more concentrated part of it, so yeah, i think he scales or maybe downscales idk how we treat shockwaves/wind aftereffects for scaling

he'd at least downscale in my opinion, he managed to not die from that hit. The feat itself is...idk how strong. He destroyed a lot of stuff and assuming pulverization, eying it, i'd say maybe city level?

That feat is anime only. The original manga version is much less impressive.

that's just sad. Knowing Murata, im surprised he didn't draw him obliterate half a continent or sth. Weird

I’ve seen kinetic energy calcs for kicking up lots of dust. The manga version is definitely nowhere the anime version but I wonder what it’d result in.
