The thing is I don't know if the senshi are faster than Akane. I'm listing Akanes feats. I am hoping that someone can give me feats from the anime that show they are faster. I don't like just saying well they're magically enhanced they must be faster. I want some feats of them doing stuff fast. The enhancement maybe less than Akane's speed or the enhancement was so into giving them energy attacks that whoever made it might not of put a lot of speed enhancements. I'm just trying to place the Senshi's stats compared to the Ranma world. If someone can prove they're faster then Akane I'd of asked are they faster than Shampoo well giving some of her feats.
Don't.
They're two different worlds, concieved and brought to life by different artists. They show events at different paces, different
types of events...
But
this much is fact. The senshi are intended to fight against world-ending threats. It is
ridiculous to think that a hobbyist martial artist could outperform them.
The fact that Takahashi chose to focus on martial arts and Takeuchi preferred to focus on the energy-slinging is irrelevant. Just because Takeuchi didn't feel like constantly rubbing our noses in how cool (in a physical sense) her characters are doesn't mean they're not quicker.
Pale wolf if you look at the last post of the page before this I listed the senshi's jumping feats that I could find and then compared them to Akane's best. In comparison I came up with the conclusion that they can jump at about the same height as Akane maybe a little less.
You listed Senshi jumping feats, and you compared them to Akane without listing anything Akane did.
When was the hentai horde (a fannon term I believe) ever "explicitly stated to be shit". The were a group of people attacking Akane en-mass, some were Martial artists (sumo for example), some were armed with weapon and they all appeared to be athletic. They were low scale for the series but there were a lot of them and they were armed.
Actually, I was grouping in the hentai horde with the Phoenix army since they were about equal - mass fighters of no consequence only used to scatter bodies about the area.
And you mention there were practicioners of sumo. Yes, sumo is a martial art, but it is one dependent on
grappling. Even Akane would be moving too fast to get caught up in such a grapple.
And yeah, it's a fanon term, but you were using it, and it gets the idea across.
Can you tell me what episode that Matako lifted a Youma over her head because the way I remember she did a judo like toss and not a straight lift ? I'd like to youtube/download the episode to see it.
Her intro episode. No idea what the number is, but it was the one where Jupiter first appeared.
Akane may have used a shinai but it still is a sword (sorta) and in the right/wrong person's hands it can be deadly.
Yeah. If you shove it down their throat.
You're thinking of a bokken, as indicated by your comment on Kuno cutting down a tree.
Here's the difference - a bokken is a length of hard wood, similar in performance characteristics to a katana. A bokken actually can hurt someone, and pretty easily.
A shinai is a length of bamboo. It is
whippy - it doesn't have the solidity to be anything like a real blade in performance, and the skills you use to take advantage of a shinai are only tangentially related to the skills used for a bokken or real sword.
There is no problem that cannot be solved through the proper application of immense levels of firepower.
