" Because he's literally the only one in the series who has a feat of that level. "
A.) Irrelevant *see 4th comment*
B.) Only if you ignore the Overgirl feat that we are discussing. I feel like you are going in circles.
You: Overgirl is probably an outlier. There is no one with these kinds of feats
Me: What about M'rynn?
You: M'yrnn is probably an outlier. There is no one else with these kinds of feats
Me: What about Overgirl?
"She didn't move it at those speeds"
It gets where it gets. Bad visual FX don't change the outcome. Kara was the last one to have any effect on the object. Without confirmation that it hit a wormhole or something, the only conclusion available to us is that she threw it. Even if it did hit a wormhole, the only naturally occurring wormholes thus far have led through time and dimensions. They don't seem to create shortcuts through space.
To be clear, this would, in fact, be an outlier. Given that, after this feat, we actually see her rendered unconscious by a Country level attack. This was just an afterthought. She obviously isn't moon level.
"Actually read the comment, she struggled at first, but then had no problem supporting the actual weight later. "
Your words: "She didn't really struggle
to lift it, at least not a lot."
Yes, you do go on say that it gets easier, but you also blatantly hand-wave the clear effort she is exerting just to pick up the fort. Back-peddle all you want. Your words - "didn't really struggle", "at least not a lot" - simply don't match
face her face.
This scene is nonsense and has no business being used as an example of Kara struggling to accomplish a feat. Which was my entire point to begin with.
"also that's even higher than anything else in the series, except for Mxy of course."
For the love of all that is good and nerdy, PLEASE stop saying this.
This means literally nothing. A sudden jump in power for a series doesn't prove an outlier. Like I said, you need solid evidence that the feat is outside the power of comparable characters. Kara could evaporate the Milky Way next season, and - until she, or a comparable character, falls short of a lesser feat - it wouldn't automatically be an outlier.
Power creep is a thing. So are Zenkai. They need to be taken in stride, not hand-waved. As long as there is a clear upward path; punches a mountain --> punches an island --> punches a planet, etc etc, then you have basic power growth. The problem is when you have something like; tanks a bullet --> tanks grenade --> tanks supernova --> dies to a nuke. The outlier here is the supernova, not because its better than his previous feats, but because it contradicts later feats: that's how you prove a fluke. Tanking the supernova would be legit until we can see that he is incapable of dealing with lesser forces.
This logic is pretty applicable irl. If someone does something amazing that someone thinks is a fluke, the first reaction usually is "I bet you can't do it
again." Even if the person is known to have sucked at this activity in the distant past, there is always the possibility that he has improved. The only way to confirm the fluke is to make the individual attempt to repeat the action.
"being stunned by a bomb capable of destroying 30 blocks, believing she'd die against Indigo's bomb, being briefly knocked out by a missile that doesn't even range into city levels or small city levels,"
Not only are these PIS, as you mentioned, I'm pretty sure all but one of them is from Season 1. And all of them are, like, a full season before the M'rynn and Overgirl feats. So, in other words, we still have linear power growth, as described above.
"these are PIS of course, but you could very well argue the same for those feats"
You can argue against the moon landing, too. I wouldn't recomend it.
The lower end feats are PIS for a good reason, the are blatantly contradicted by earlier feats. The only argument against the new feats is that they are better than the old ones.
Just like with outliers, one of the ideas around PIS is that characters don't
randomly get weaker with time. If they do, then you usually have an outlier or a case of PIS. Either the new feat is PIS, or the old feat is an outlier. A jump from one level to another, without old failures to contradict it, is generally neither PIS nor an outlier. It's just character growth.
"There's no point really, it's contradicted by its own feat of being able to destroy everything in 50 miles."
Character statements =/= feats. It's a statement contradicted by another statement. Neither holds any more weight, objectively speaking. I personally would take a statement regarding actual yield over Felicity's guess.
Also, there is an argument that they don't contradict at all. Felicity statement is 100% true, in regards to a 1mt blast. It would destroy everything in 50 miles. She doesn't say that it will
only span 50 miles.
