Why isn't Nick Wilde 9-B?

[Joaco0902]

Currently, Nick Wilde is 9-C via this calc. However, Judy Hopps is 9-B for a variety of reasons. Nick is often portrayed as a potential threat to Judy, for example, Judy carries an "Anti-Fox Spray" (or something like that), she's afraid of him etc. It's pretty much their entire arc.

I believe that a "Likely 9-B" should be enough though.

Eh, there's a factor Hopps is a trained police officer while Nick isn't, as such it isn't really guaranteed for them to scale.

Judy's fear of Nick was irrational anyhow, it's shown multiple times as such in the film that her being afraid of him is solely from bias and not because he poses a threat.

 

[Joaco0902]

Didn't Nick turn into a police officer at the end of the movie?

 

[The_Impress]

I mean, it would be speculative, and Judy was like, notably superior to her classmates, so

 

[Bobsican]

Yeah, it's fairly dubious as of now, but I can totally see a "possibly 9-B" being reasonable.

 

[The_Impress]

Eh, let him have feats for it at least, "possibly" here is making a tier out of headcanon

 

[Bobsican]

Mmm... TBH it's pretty close to not be headcanon, but not enought to not be that, so yeah, the tiers should remain the same.

Is there anything left to say? As otherwise this thread can be closed.

 

[Joaco0902]

I still find it weird that a bunny is superior to a fox, but I see your reasoning.

 

[The_Impress]

The Bunny knocked out a Rhino tho, so...

Anyways, closing zis
