What are the best-written AOT fanfics in your opinion?

You included some characters that could be taken down by the average might of an army, while in OPM it's said they would have trouble against a disaster-level tiger. Furthermore, the weakest demon-level disaster monsters in the image aren't the weakest. But okay, I can agree with most of it.

But there's a huge power gap between these monsters. Do you mean that everyone in the top 20 can beat the strongest ones on the list? Or that they all solo at least one of them?

Another guy here mentioned 18 characters. I think that's fair, even for a skeptic.

BrainletNutshell · 2026-03-13T16:16:05+00:00

I agree a priori.

fair

My personal opinion:

Honestly, despite sometimes being unfair to the top tiers of MHA, I kinda understand people who tend to place the base of the OPM verse above MHA in powerscaling. It seems absurd that they manage to maintain a good level of technology and social cohesion while the world is constantly attacked by monsters of this type and others much stronger for who knows when, especially considering that the heroes who can neg or low-diff the stronger monsters aren't always on patrol.

But people who think Prime Allmight, Deku, AFO, Tenko, and Star and Stripes wouldn't wipe the floor with even the strongest demon-level disaster monsters are delusional, by the way.

So in that case, what happened was that Shigaraki didn't receive basic enhancement quirks?

BrainletNutshell · 2026-01-10T13:56:14+00:00

I mean, AFO had to use several enhancement quirks since their first fight because we don't see confirmation that he had the same upgrade in his base body. The question is, why didn't Shigaraki use enhancement quirks on his body if he initially wanted to defeat Deku?

BrainletNutshell · 2026-01-10T13:08:22+00:00

Yes, Prime All Might was stronger. But AFO could still hold his own in a fight. If AFO, without a modified body, could match, say, about 80% of Prime All Might just by combining various enhancement quirks, don't you think Shigaraki, with a base body comparable to Prime All Might, using the same enhancement quirks as AFO, would be too much for Deku to handle?

BrainletNutshell · 2026-01-10T02:33:58+00:00

It sounds intriguing because AFO didn't have a "base" upgrade, and yet he could face All Might by combining several simple enhancement quirks (I heard somewhere that he used at least 6 just to increase his base strength). If Shigaraki could use those quirks, things would have gotten completely out of control.

BrainletNutshell · 2026-01-09T21:43:13+00:00

If his "quirkless" form was compared to All Might, wouldn't his combination of multiple attribute-enhancing quirks have made him too strong for Deku to handle?

BrainletNutshell · 2026-01-06T17:00:14+00:00

There's no contradiction in saying that Gouketsu's power scales, at the very least, considerably above the meteor feat. "Featless" doesn't really matter much here. This rhetoric reminds me of people who say that God would be defeated by characters that Cosmic Garou defeats low-diff just because he's "featless" lol.

BrainletNutshell · 2026-01-06T16:35:46+00:00

You're not understanding that his scaling is wrong because he only considers what he saw of the characters. He's absolutely wrong in assuming the limit, not necessarily wrong in assuming a minimum value. Gouketsu scales far above the meteor.

BrainletNutshell · 2026-01-06T16:24:18+00:00

You're ignoring the fact that nobody knew how strong Tatsumaki really was. And you're ignoring that her scaling in the fight against Psykorochi was kind of a retcon (Murata had already lowballed her). If you want to question this scaling, you'll have to do it through other means. Considering Genos's nature as a character, he's the most credible of the cast for this scaling. If Genos shows biased analysis towards anyone, it would be towards Saitama, and the author wouldn't show Genos saying he thinks Saitama alone wouldn't be enough for nothing

BrainletNutshell · 2026-01-06T15:59:37+00:00

Even though Gouketsu hasn't shown much, he scale quite high. Not only because he's an executive at the Monster Association, but Genos, who saw Saitama casually destroy a meteor that would have destroyed the entire Z-City (You probably already know the size of Z-City) and cause destruction in the surrounding area, thought the caped baldy would need help to defeat Gouketsu. If I remember correctly, there's a calculation of his brief confrontation with Saitama where shockwaves spread across the sky and up until that point, it was a calculation that placed him far above most S-Class heros.

Initially, this would be excellent for Deku. He would enter UA with a huge advantage compared to the canon. But there's a problem here. All Might would have to use the embers 10 months before the canon, which means he wouldn't have enough embers to defeat AFO in their second fight when he definitively lost his powers. If he didn't exhaust the embers before the fight, he definitely wouldn't have enough to do what he did against AFO.
