I know I said I was taking a break from Touhou revisions, but this should be pretty quick and easy. Just wanna get this out while I'm not drowning in real life stress.
One argument I have regularly seen in regards to Touhou’s speed ratings, both on this forum and off of it, is a single statement; That being Marisa’s infamous “nothing can move faster than light!” claim. Despite numerous debunks, the argument keeps resurfacing, so I feel that it’s necessary to make a discussion rule banning speed downgrades based on this:
Do not try to downgrade Touhou’s speed ratings on the basis of Marisa’s claim that nothing can move faster than light. Not only is this directly contradicted shortly after the statement is made due to Marisa outrunning her own light-speed Master Spark, but characters such as Sakuya are directly stated to move faster than light, and numerous other characters have demonstrated consistent FTL and higher feats. As such, this statement should be considered unreliable.
If it’s really necessary, I can try to provide more explicit examples of FTL and higher speed feats, but I should hope that all Touhou supporters here know what I’m talking about. Hell, we have 3 infinite speed feats listed on Reimu and Marisa’s pages, that alone should make the ‘no FTL’ shit look as stupid as it actually is.
