Changing stats from 9-C, to to 10-B, 9-C via biting
Cleaning P&A, removing unsupported stuff
Changing intelligence from animalistic to mindless
General clean-up, adding scans, and making justifications more concise
 
None of these scans prove that, that's regular human hearing feats
Not without a calc, and no? They just rushed through a window, the characters were not actively looking there so the zombies got to them.
First feat is too ambiguous, we don't know how long that took to happen and we see that they're mobbing those people so for all we know it was a collective feat
The second one has them visibly hurt, and just hanging by due to them not needing blood and organs to live. So again, neither gives 9-C anything

Hmmm....Zombies heard the tiny noise produced by a person from various meters away (outside the school).

Shattering glass has always been considered a 9-C feat in the wiki. And an entire horde of zombies was silent enough to not be heard from behind a window, they ambushed the guy. It's pretty clear to me.

Hmmm... I can see pretty clear a zombie ripping off the arm of a man here and A stick of dynamite thus produced contains roughly 1 MJ (megajoule) of energy in the manga the launched like 3. So even rating them as only 10-B doesn't seem right.

We know from the anime that the sound was really not that quiet. Plus they never note the zombies having enhanced hearing, even in the scene where Saya tests it, heck shouldn't they hear her talking if their hearing is that good?

It's also a hoard, so it's a bunch of zombies pounding on the glass which requires less strength from each one. Also their "stealth" does not make sense at all, they're too dumb to even understand slopes, and you telling me they're also smart enough to sneak on people when they can't see their surroundings???

The arm was bitten into, so it requires less strength to pull off. Also, the dynamite hurt the zombies far from the epicenter, taking off chunks from their bodies, they are not enduring the explosion at all and rather coasting off their lack of vital organs

Anime is not cannon to the manga soo... also In the manga they always reach humans groups, without them making noticeable noises..

There are scenes of single zombies breaking glass in their own tho. They were quiet when they attacked that guy, and were like a dozen. That's how the scene is,...

If you pay attention, the zombie is biting a chunk of the man's chest, though. It clearly used its arm to rip off the man's arm. Certainly if they only have 10-B durability, there should have been nothing left of them from that explosion neither.

Okay but we're arguing over sound, and I think zombies had super hearing someone would've said it. We have a scene dedicated to explaining zombie senses, and in it the characters do not conclude they have enhanced hearing.

Again this is more a knock on the humans, nobody ever calls them sneaky, they just happen to be in every corner because without people making sounds they just stay around a spot after the person died. It's not stealth mastery, they are just abundantly everywhere

This is not a 9-C feat. I can break glass like that if I ram myself through it. Also, not making sounds and then surprising someone because you jumped through a window is not stealth mastery.

Yes, generally it's far easier to tear an object after you bit off a big chunk of it. So I disagree with this being 9-C for anything besides the bite.
Also no it does not, the further you are from an explosion the weaker it gets, and they clearly got very injured from it.

Surprisingly people don't really use real footage of defenestration but there's also an entire war on record for starting due to the phenomenon, and the word doesn't just exist for top of the line people

Ok, makes sense.

Iirc, the point of the glass thing is that they don't harm themselves when breaking it. Whereas a human can get a couple of broken bones after doing so...

Yes, but It is biting his chest, not his arm. Also some zombies took the explosion point blank.

That's not stealth mastery. It's simply not being obnoxiously un-stealthy.

You can't prove they didn't harm their bones there, especially when they don't have a sense of touch so nothing is hindering them

And they bit his arm before using their arms, they do a similar in chapter 20 to someone's leg (It's on my sandbox)
Also where, as far as I can tell from all the explosion feats only the further away zombies survive. Not to mention by that logic it's a 9-B feat, not a 9-C one and thus an outlier

Their hands seem normal after the crash. And going by that logic, you can't prove they harmed their bones either.

Not to mean to be rude or something, but that's an assumption; we should go with what is shown, not with what we believe happened. The scene is pretty clear: it is biting another part of the body while tearing his arm off.

Even the further zombies should have gotten a decent part of the energy of the explosion, though.

People consistently hold them off and need hoards to overpower people outright. I think using the window feat is not reliable since again, we can do it as regular people.
Also to me the scene seems to be very clearly a zombie pulling on a part they bit, since that's consistently what they do.
As for the explosion, again they got chunks of themselves blown off, that isn't scaling at all, they actively got hurt by that to a big degree.

Ok, I agree with your arguments. I just wanted to make sure everything was in order before applying a downgrade. You have my support now.
 
@Agnaa are you willing to sign this CRT off, since you already commented on the stealth mastery
