Tokyo Revengers: Removing Anime Feats

I agree,
This message is for everyone, not just Lostlight. Since this is a Calculation group discussion thread, please make sure your messages are relevant to the topic. If you don’t have anything informative to add, kindly refrain from posting here.

This message can also be seen on top of thread page.
Realistically, shouldn't this be a CRT instead of a CGD?

What's being questioned and removed is the canonicity of the anime, not the calculations themselves. They're just getting removed by proxy of being based on the anime adaptation.
As far as I understand, canonicity of an adaptation is a CRT topic for thread mods and admins, not a calc group topic for CGMs.
 
I don't like argument for attempting to remove Baji's calc due to my reason in the previous thread, but I don't disagree with removing it either, it's not like it's gonna hold up anyways, unless maybe the new season gives clarity to some feats.


Not sure about Taiju's feat of sending multiple goons flying. It's an expanded version of what the manga establishes, the manga doesn't show him punch those goons, but it also expands what is already implied, i. e, the narration that taiju's brutality is out of this world.
I'm 50/50 on this.


The rest is good to go imo.

Got blitzed by a couple of messages back smh
 
Brother you have to prove that, the last one was specifcally rejected since even OP said they dont have any proof to meet site standards and begged we make a exception which is a no go
das not what happened u said to vapes reasoning that despite the anime being supervised and following the manga that u need more proof, but that would make like 99 percent of verses non canon, which dont even make sense
If the feat was calc'd using just the manga, the results would be different. That's grounds enough to remove the anime version.
thats not what the main debunks of the thread r. They're asking to nuke the speed ratings because one of the feats is an expanded manga fight feat that wasn't able to be quantified in the manga

My guy, this is what we're not going to do. I can pull everything said about anime canon in that thread from myself as well as other staff and users who disagreed with it and link it here but I'd rather not have to do that

Moreso the feat does not exist as it does in the manga the way its done in anime or some being straight anime only additions but even despite that the calcs are just bad, now can you please stop commenting until I can write out a detailed post later today

The fact alone that the fight includes stuff not seen on the manga shows how the feat is now different. That's what makes it tertiary canon and unusable for our purposes. However, this was already handled on another thread. As Dale said, they have to be removed regardless.

I am only answering this to be courteous, but at this point, this topic is derailing. So please stop now.
 
@LostLightt refrain from commenting until staff is able to give proper evaluations, all you're doing is adding to the word count

Close the thread until you or other staff are willing to evaluate. From what I can see it’s only you and Lephyr here, so one of you will unlock it anyway.
 
no i aint, i literally said there was 1 reply to the canon stuff in that thread so how was it handled. u gotta discuss it before verifying it. no
There were several but you won't even give anyone time or listen to request for time to give proper comments man, can you please stop

Probably necessary for now given the current behavior but I'll leave that for more than just myself to decide
 
Can anyone briefly outline the differences between the anime and manga versions of the feats?
There is no difference in the first place because they are anime exclusive scenes. They’re calcing scenes that didn’t exist in the manga.
 
First things first: This is handled on a CRT, not a calc group one.

Calc Group forum is for discussing the validity of calcs and their implementation when two different results of calcs for the same scene exists.

What you are suggesting here is for canonicity stuff, not a problem with the calc itself.

These ones should've been handled separately on the Calc Group Forum, as these actually show calc problems
I wasn't sure where to put since the mimic durability thread that I thought was a CRT was considered a CGM thread due to going over calcs,. Wanted to play it safe and put it here

It can be moved if wanted
 
This should be fine, though it's probably best to handle it as a CRT as everyone already said.

Additionally, for punching Hanma calc using simply fist mass would be inaccurate, since that'd imply no rest of your body's mass contributes to the punch which is just false.
 
Alright updated OP. I put the section that's calc issues to the side since if this is a CRT those should be covered in a CGM off Lephyr's suggestion

I added M3X and Floxy's votes (Ik CGMs don't have staff vote rights but I try to include all who voted)

Sorry if I missed someone putting a vote cause I just woke up a bit ago, it seems like others are still formulating opinions

Might as well do it here and be done with it.

I also agree with removing the anime feats, btw.
 
3 staff members already agreed with the thread I think you can apply it
Only the calc related ones that use anime shenanigans based on altered scenes.

Dale will further explain the calcs have issues beyond even that to hammer the revision home and currently only M3X has given input on the other calcs at all

Edit: Though seems Floxy gave a general agreement
 
ur the one whos calling me disengenous and stonewalling
I'm not calling you disingenuous. I'm saying you are WRONG.

I'll comment later anyways, the calcs themself are bunk themselves our standards on anime canon aside so they'd need to be nuked either way.

But yeah the anime canon was rejected in the last thread so on that note there's no even much to discuss those do need to be removed regardless of any math issues and is more a content thing rather than a calc thing since its about anime canon shit
Anyways, if this is the case then I have little need to discuss here. If these calcs were denied (which they rightfully should be) then they need to be removed. No arguing about math, no arguing about cannon, just removed until someone wants to make a new CRT about it (if that at all). I'll leave it at that and refrain from further comments regarding the calcs if it makes it easier for staff.
 
Ts contradicts the vsbw case by case basis and also contradicts that the anime is faithful to the manga and is supervised by the author
First and foremost before I say anything else I will say that you need to familiarize yourself with our current policies on canonicity as the users in this thread have previously told you several times now.
Author approval alone does not confer canonical status upon adaptations. Such material is considered part of the primary continuity only when the creator or rights holders explicitly confirm its integration into, or priority over, the original timeline—for instance, through statements verifying that specific events, scenes, or elements genuinely occur within it (e.g., "These scenes originate from material in my notes that was omitted from the initial release but belongs in the core story.") Mere involvement, minor supervision, general praise, or characterizations of the work as a "faithful adaptation" remain insufficient to establish new content as official canon; all determinations continue to be made on a case-by-case basis, with these criteria serving as guidelines rather than an exhaustive standard.
Just having general supervision of a adaptation or just giving approval over some general stuff does not constitute as being sufficient to having the anime be canon, there are no exceptions to this so if you simply don't have evidence of the author/creator or rights holder of said series giving an explicitly statement confirming the anime takes priority over the original work or is their true vision that should be taken over their manga then there's simply no point in discussing that. Even with that said you claimed that there was only ever one comment about canonicity and that Vzearr provided in the previous thread which is blatantly untrue since there were other users who weighed in as well, regardless though OP even mentions they spoke to @Reiner04 as well and dropped it after discussion.

User comment here
Also if anime isn't canon, don't use it unless it's literally just 1:1, and I do mean 1:1 not "well it's close enough", but the very fact it's something that even needs to be brought up is implicative of it being not 1:1 otherwise it wouldn't matter so.....


Now onto the calcs themself
There are several problems in here but right away its using reverse kinetic energy to get speed while working back from the energy yield of a feat which is something we don't allow so that by itself already nukes this as is for the first method they try. With the second method they simply ignore the the cut on impact that holds on a dramatic wide shot here and take it to mean the glass travelled that distance in a single frame of real time rather than accept for the cinematic wide shot for it is. Also an exclusively anime only scene anyways where nothing close to this happens in the manga.

This one is once again another anime only addition with its own problems in the calc itself as the distance of Baji's movement is significantly wanked to absurd degrees to even get the calc to the value it is while also breaking our calculation rule here. I'd really rather not have to do a full calc breakdown tho if it can be avoided since I do NOT want to have to do entirely new calcs to show why this stuff doesn't work but if need be then I can.

this calc literally shouldn't even be used since it was rejected and tries to get lifting strength from a dude punching dudes, that is textbook striking strength and psycho rejected it for said reasoning, plus it being anime only and all it deserves the axe.

This one here, specifically the kisaki saving mikey bit here doesn't line up with the original manga version of the feat either with the anime having kisaki run all the way past the dude going a much further distance than the manga with him also throwing the punch while the dude was in slow-mo. Presented in a way the manga does not at all showcase the feat.


This calc for some reason uses freefall for a dude being hit a straight horizontal distance to get some absurdly small timeframe which makes 0 sense. The dude goes 5 meters over the course of 22 frames or 0.91666666666s which would make his actual speed 5.52m/s instead of 88m/s like this calc would suggest. The second feat here too also is absurdly wanked and also breaking the rule here. There are also inconsistencies pointed out by 2 CGMs in the comments who both rejected the feat so this shouldn't even be used for that alone.


Next one
Kind of a bonus but funnily enough this calc has the opposite problem of the others, the anime timeframe end should be used since the Subsonic+ end uses the old way that blitz timeframes were done. Nerfs it to Subsonic
this is correct the current timeframe used is pretty inflated and comes from very outdated revisions and has no merit really to use anything near that high


I agree with the CRT and the removal of these calcs as a whole for the reasons provided in my post and the OPs own detailed explanations. these gotta go especially since we don't even accept anime canon to begin with already
 
While waiting for the third staff approval I'll note that 48hr grace is April 17 5:02am EST

Should talk about how this is gonna get applied too. Should what ratings the profiles are gonna be changed to be settled here or a future thread?
If the former would need supporters to help know what the current inverse speed scaling is since the profiles don't make it clear

Personally I would lean to profile edits being done in a future thread since this one already covers a lot

Jst say u aint read the manga, the whole fight is in the manga the anime jst shows the exact punches and kicks + it's supervised + it's faithful to the manga.

it aint its in the manga, jst say u aint read it, the manga and anime is only different by the anime showing the exact punches of a fight in the manga.

Also mate did u just say Baji is comp to no names when he is literally beating 50 of them in the same scene without being tagged once...

Also the degrees aint wanked u gots to prove that mate. Substantiate yo shi

Not only is Wakui supervising the anime, the anime is faithful.

Oh and BTW, wakui dont jst supervise it, he closely ensures everything is correct:https://anibase.net/en/anime/4kJn1/Tokyo-Revengers-Season-2

So ur kinda cooked here bud
 
Even if the anime were legit I have half a mind to reject some of these calcs on the account of them being highly sketch AF.
