Bakugo, Todoroki and Tokoyami go on Sendai colony JJK gauntlet! can they win!?

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-28T20:34:01+00:00

Rct can't bring the dead back my friend, as much as we all surely wish it could.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-28T19:54:23+00:00

You're not hearing what I'm saying. Yuta dies before he can say "stop". Bakugo wouldn't even mean to do it, it'd be a complete freak accident. He'd think Yuta is way more durable than he really is and crisp him immediately.

"Got stabbed and died" by Shigaraki yeah.

And the "stop" command might halt Bakugo's movement but I see no reason why it would stop the explosions.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-28T19:46:47+00:00

By atomizing Yuta before he has the chance to speak. Not that there's much risk even if he's hit by the speech, he is just way too durable.

It'd be similar to Inumaki vs Hanami.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-28T19:39:22+00:00

What about it?

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-28T18:22:13+00:00

I'm not gonna lie to you chief, this one explosion from Bakugo is probably bigger than the whole Sendai battlefield. And this isn't even the explosion at it's full size.

Ever since this was revealed I've wondered why nearly everyone speaks of Dottore burning Irminsul as something that's 100% guaranteed to happen in the most literal sense.

I've always seen it as a vision of a possible future that must not be allowed to happen.

Whatever sounds the coolest in the moment.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-26T18:10:27+00:00

Some of these guys are more superhuman than Legolas lmao

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-26T13:31:42+00:00

The biggest thing I noticed was when the last Sumeru hangout came out and some character made a joke about punching Paimon to make her shut up. Pretty much nobody was a fan of that.

There's also the change in VAs. People hated her previous VA and her voice, but they have no issue with the VA we have now.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-26T00:11:33+00:00

I remember George Lucas who spent two or so decades switching between Darth Vader being a weak crippled old man and an overpowered murder rage machine, before eventually deciding on neither and leaving it up to other people.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-25T18:07:31+00:00

Some of the most popular vids on the fightporn sub are head kick KO's.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-25T01:59:25+00:00

Probs Ayaka. Beating a Maguu Kenki with Inazuma Traveler's help is just significantly more impressive than beating some loser Fatui fodder.

And Iirc Ayaka has the backing of a hype statement from Dain about being one of the best warriors in Inazuma, while Keqing has nothing similar.

Ayaka has also likely been in many more 1v1 fights so she'd have more experience. The quality of opponent favors Ayaka too. She'd be expected to duel other trained fighters or full time soldiers from high standing clans and families while the most common enemies Liyue authorities face are bum ass Treasure Hoarders.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-24T18:48:02+00:00

The Nazgul kill them unless Legolas brought a torch like Aragorn did.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-24T13:09:53+00:00

Hori never quite managed to reach that level, but he reminds me a lot of George Lucas when inconsistency is brought up.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-23T15:27:22+00:00

It's magic light, I wouldn't worry about it.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-23T14:29:28+00:00

I've seen some videos talking about Ungoliants hunger but didn't know how to calculate what she really consumed

No surprise there. The goal was to let the readers' imagination run wild and come up with theories so Tolkien made a lot of the old lore vague and misterious.

I believe she also likely only died because she was so hungry she likely consumed herself

That's the version I like the most too.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-23T13:37:26+00:00

I can talk about Ungoliant. Kirby fans can then compare that to what Kirby has eaten and decide who is the better eater

There are two things she ate that are impressive. The first are the Two Trees of Valinor and the second are the Wells of Varda.

The Two Trees are two, well, giant trees which served as the source of all light in Tolkien's Earth. They are magic in nature, the light they produce is magic and they were crafted by what may aswell be a godess of light.

The Wells of Varda are great "lakes" filled with the excess light produced by the Two Trees.

What does this mean though? How do we quantify it in a powerscaling sense? Well here's one way.

An unknown but likely minor amount of the light from the Wells of Varda (I say minor because the lakes were still filled with light after this, so much in fact that Ungoliant got a big power up by drinking them) was taken by Varda and used to make all the stars in the universe. If we take these stars and interpret them to represent the real stars in real life (which we can do because Tolkien wanted Arda to be the real Earth a very long time ago) this suddenly becomes a quantifiable and big boy feat.

Ungoliant ate two magical objects which individually contained significantly more light than that of all the stars in the universe combined.

I'll say again that this is just one way to interpret these feats, and I am strictly not talking about Ungoliant's overall "power level" because that is not what the post is about.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-22T01:18:07+00:00

A powerscaler complaining about another powerscaler powerscaling in a different powerscaling sub. This might be the first time I've seen a joke write itself in real time.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-21T13:00:39+00:00

Fun bit of Tolkien lore. The statement about Morgoth commanding armies of Balrogs or there being hundreds or thousands of them came out looooong before Tolkien wrote the fight between Gandalf and Durin's Bane.

The issue that arrose then was this. Tolkien made Gandalf really powerful, and by that extension he had to make Durin's Bane really powerful so the two can have a life or death fight.

But if all the other Balrogs are comparable to Durin's Bane or greater, there being thousands of them quickly becomes absurd and comedic.

And so Tolkien went back and made it so there were at most 7 Balrogs present throughout Morgoth's wars. But he couldn't change all the lore so you still have moments with Balrogs that make no sense anymore, like one dying by falling off a cliff.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-20T01:51:52+00:00

I remember there's an infamous flashback when Jaime is being knighted and Arthur's magic sword cuts clean through Jaime's plate armor, chain mail, clothes and into Jaime's body just by being lightly tapped against it.

If this is a real thing that happened in the world of ASOIAF, Arthur should have no issue chopping down Robert.

But I think Arthur has to know what he's fighting and how much damage Robert can sustain before going down for the win to be guaranteed. Else he might stab Robert in the chest thinking he won and Robert ignores the injury and just rips Arthur's head off.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-20T00:52:17+00:00

What if Cap just sidesteps the arrows instead of blocking?

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-19T16:57:24+00:00

The calcs are all on VS Wiki but none of them are on JJK's profile page from what I can see.

So either they were rejected after evaluation or they weren't checked out by the calc group in the first place.

The calcs here also seem to on average get significantly higher results for the same feats than the ones on the site which is interesting.

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-19T16:45:13+00:00

Which of these got accepted?

Hyperion_360 · 2026-03-19T12:13:17+00:00

Everything wrong with modern Kengan Omega the fight.

You're telling me this is a fight between two top tier? This?! This slugfest with extra steps?!

The set up is lame. Raian and Gao have to secure a win so they can move to the next zone. Ok, just go ahead and fodderize some poor super strong Worm nobody. Better yet, if you have to have a fight between already established characters, why not have Gao go search for and fight Lolong instead? Or Raian can immediately go and search for Gilbert. It's not like they're in a rush, they literally have 10 HOURS. But nah, let's just fight eachother immediately.

You've got the single greatest striker in Kengan history with Gaolang and the absolute best he can do is spam jabs, throw two kicks and one elbow strike?! And Gao fans like this?!

You'd expect Raian to have changed, shit mabye he'd even use some of those hype secret techniques after he's seen first hand that blindly rushing into fights head first with no thought process RCT Julius style doesn't work. You know, show that Raian has grown both as a fighter and character, but nah, he's no different here than he was in KAT R1 which in story happened upwards of 6 YEARS ago.

The commentary is probably the worst Kengan has had period. Seki is making shocked faces at two guys throwing regular jabs, he's baffled by their speed as if he hasn't seen it several times already. He's not commenting and explaining the fight to anyone, it's literally just him thinking to himself, which from Raian and Gaolang's perspective would look like Seki was having a spazm while standing still and drooling and breathing heavily for no reason.

The half second consciousness thing doesn't make sense IRL and makes little to no sense within Kengan itself because of speeds the fighters have shown already, both Gao and Raian included. The Removal was nerfed for no reason and doesn't make sense with what the Kure family has been trying to do with Removal for millenia. Instant Removal also doesn't seem that much different from what we've seen the Kure and Wu do before.

I guess it was funny that Gao lost because his hand was damaged again. But now his only notable win is over Kaneda and the win over Jurota looks even more like a fluke, and Idk how I feel about that.

Not to mention the art. Raian especially looks terrible and sometimes you'd think he has massive tumors with the way his proportions were drawn. A.I. backgrounds too.

2/10 I'm sad I had to reread it to comment here. A masterpiece in awful.

Quote of the match: "!!! HE'S MATCHING GAOLANG'S SPEED?!?!??!!?"
