Hey. I’m a little confused about the feat below, so I need y'all opinion on whether it meets the light criteria or not

More or less, those are some of the criteria that meet the standard of original light in VSB. However, there might be reasons why this is not original light, the reasons are as follows
*some DMUA said
That’s what confuses me, because there’s an argument that this isn’t real light as I mentioned above. But first, I’m going to respond about its antifeats, because in my opinion, this still counts as light.
In my opinion, this isn’t a big deal. It’s fiction, it doesn’t have to be realistic, as long as it’s logical. In this manga, there are many scenes where the author himself doesn’t bother to think about issues like this so it makes sense. For example; there are people who can lose weight in a very short time, there are those who were originally just ordinary humans but their entire body becomes a weapon (cyborgization), there are tools and chemical fluids that can increase physical strength to the extreme, there is a VR game device that can be used to control other people’s bodies from a distance, and so on.
So if we look at the logic in its fiction, cases like this have become commonplace because even though the setting is in Japan, the tools and technology are more advanced than in our time, and the author also doesn’t bother about this. Therefore, the weapon used by Kanaguri should also not be something amazing, because this is already common, and perhaps what Kanaguri meant when he said that it had been modified was so that it could be used for attacks, which might be without directly affecting the speed of the light itself.
Lastly, regardless of all things previously considered as antifeat, this cannot negate the fact that this verse treats it as truly just light. There are not a few other verses that although their light can do things like this, like Kizaru, but still treated as fast as light.

- It is clearly stated that it is merely light, and it comes from a reliable source, which is the owner of the weapon itself
- The light also comes from a realistic source; Fresnel LED, which is commonly used in filmmaking, and it’s also can be seen that the light is moving in a straight line
- The light can be reflected on a non-magical mirror; iron, and also shown to have an instant speed, with 1 reflection immediately spreading throughout the room
- Real light does not have mass, so it does not have enough momentum to bounce off a mass object. So if it turns out it can, then the light has mass, and contradicts the characteristics of light IRL. Therefore, this violates one of the standards that states "It is tangible and can be interacted with physically by normal humans", unless the character can actually control the light itself, and unfortunately, Kanaguri doesn’t have that ability.
Laser/Light Beam Dodging Feats
"Light" or "Laser" dodging is a fairly common trope seen in fiction and often the center of debate regarding characters' speeds, given that light is the fastest known thing in the real universe. This article will set forth the standards of this wiki in determining what is considered a real...
