I have long had a problem with the way Orochi's feat was calculated, going from the use of an arbitrary timeframe, to the lack of destruction that a supposedly 5-C+ object would actually cause by moving through the layers of the Earth, to the way mass and volume were measured.
Because of that, I made a recalculation of this feat here.
So let's not beat around the bush, the purpose of this thread is to decide which method is better, PE or KE.
In my opinion, the most accurate approach would be to choose the PE method for the following reasons.
First, the current timeframe of only 30 seconds is just an arbitrary guess and could easily be longer.
-Earthquakes on a massive scale envelope the whole planet.
-Buildings begin to collapse, with multiple people reacting to it and wondering what's happening.
-Large cities are uprooted from their foundations one side to another.
-Numerous volcanoes swell and then erupt as a result of the earthquakes.
-And all this happened before the energy could even reach Orochi, while Saitama was bathing in lava. Many people use Saitama saying "I don't even have time to take a bath" as a justification for the timeframe, but not only can a bath take on average 10 minutes to half an hour, but Saitama actually just said he "can't even take a bath in peace".
Second, I think the KE method for this feat breaks the KE rules. Raising up the inner layers at those speeds would have split apart a portion of the planet. Z-City, which is located right above this event, would not only have experienced earthquakes, but would have been directly destroyed and blown into the air.
And third, this case is extremely similar to Psykos-Orochi raising a continent, where we had to decide whether to use PE or KE for the feat. In that thread we decided to go with PE instead of KE because it was safer, it wasn't relying on shaky timeframes, and we could always make a correction once the anime came out and cleared the doubts.
There is no reason to treat Orochi's case any differently, in fact, there are more reasons to believe any timeframe brought here is even more abitrary than in Psykos' case. Therefore, PE should be used.
