It was gonna happen but no one else did it so here I am. Mashymyre is currently rated at Low 1-C for viewing the worlds that comprise the Mashimaverse as nothing but fiction, stories, part of his imagination, etc., but R>F standards have changed since then. As such, this is the obligatory thread to determine the nature of Mashymyre's R>F. Is it real, or not? If yes, Mashymyre becomes 1-A. If not, he just scales to the cosmology I guess. So, let's look at the evidence, and any potential counterarguments.
I will be arguing that Mashymyre does have proper R>F and thus scales to 1-A.
The Evidence:
So, what shows R>F for Mashymyre? Well, it's clear that the worlds of Fairy Tail, Rave Master, Edens Zero, etc. are akin to fiction to him, as can be seen in the below scans:
I know there's a potential anti-feat people may bring up, that being that Mashymyre gets stabbed by some Joe Schmoe despite his state of being, which under normal circumstances would be a very obvious anti-feat. However, something within the verse actually explains this away:
Anyways, with all that said, now I'll leave this up to discussion!

- Mashymyre states that the stories he wrote include the stories of "a silver-haired boy, a boy wielding fire magic, and a boy who controls gravity," the very stories of Rave Master, Fairy Tail, and Edens Zero, which he admits sprang forth from his imagination
- The island that HERO's is set in, along with its inhabitants and the like, also sprang forth from Mashymyre's imagination
- As a side note, it's also clear that Mashymyre is a representation of the mangaka Hiro Mashima himself, who wrote these stories (the comment about people worrying about his health is even an allegory of his work in the manga industry)
I know there's a potential anti-feat people may bring up, that being that Mashymyre gets stabbed by some Joe Schmoe despite his state of being, which under normal circumstances would be a very obvious anti-feat. However, something within the verse actually explains this away:
- Simply put, the Mashymyre we see interacting with these characters is an avatar created as a result of the real Mashymyre's imagination going out of control - and this avatar vanishes upon Genesis's defeat. As such, the Mashymyre that gets stabbed is merely an avatar, and this "anti-feat" actually isn't one. Because of this, Mashymyre should honestly have two keys, for his Avatar and his True Form.
- We even appear to see a cameo of the real Mashymyre at the end, who is called an "author" by the characters he created in response to him sending characters to the wrong verses
Anyways, with all that said, now I'll leave this up to discussion!
