Sora (KHII) vs Kratos (GoWIII)

Yeah that part in particular is true, the author was permitted to lead that detail out because it makes the story flow better without it and was honestly just a bonus power that didn't really matter to the story on a whole.

mmm Sora's clearly overcompensating for something with those huge boots of his.

Dude. Why the f*** are you multiplying 'a' and 'b'? You're supposed to add them.

Still, Mach 8900+ Lightning. vin

****.

FIXING NOW.

Okay, adding those two comes to 1088754.673789, and square root of that is 1,043.434077356591 kilometers per second, mach 3,069, nearly.

So the result is higher, but not to the same degree.

Oh well.

I will work out the more accurate distance (From the actual horizontal location of Mt. Olympus) later.

I repeat, once more.

The Red Ranger did not do gay pr0nz.

😐

Okay.

Would you be up for telling me how far Mount Olympus is from Egypt?

about 1000 miles from cairo egypt.

so just say 900 miles to be safe, for the north coast or something. even if cairo is pretty far up north.

So 1,448.1 kilometers.

Delightful.

Plugging this in, the answer becomes 1,448.102937946402 kilometers per second. Mach 4,259.

As much as I'd like to point out that saying that it got there 'in an instant' could be hyperbole... I really don't think anything more than a second or maybe two can be assigned to an instant at all. Even if its an exaggeration its still in the Mach Thousands.

That's the assumption, that we are using instant to mean one second.

Even if the word second has been explicitly used other times in the book to refer to the unit of time.

Yes, I really can't contradict your assumption.

I should point out that these speeds are well-within the speed range of IRL lightning.

The stepping leader of a lightning bolt is between mach 440 and mach 6,600.

Mach 4,000+ is within that range, and considering Zeus created lightning and is sovereign over its domain, him being able to fire his bolts at faster than average for a lightning bolt is by no means a stretch.

He can not only fire his lightning bolts faster than normal, he can fire them faster than normal...while cheating on his wife with a mortal woman and shaking pots off the dresser off screen.

You besmirched the name of the greatest ranger of all time.

I will never forgive you.

The Green Ranger?

(who is also the white, red and black rangers)

Jason Lee Scott, the guy that has kicked Tommy's ass, twice, and was directly compared as the stronger guy.

Tommy is the best Ranger, obviously.

Agreed. Tommy's been on, what, 5 different Ranger teams? Tommy is the superior Ranger simply because of his enormous history and accomplishments.

And feats and shit. I distinctly remember him stopping the foot of a creature with one hand and creating giant fissures/tidal waves when he was the Black Ranger.

He is the most prolific ranger.

But he is not the best natural leader or best fighter.

That goes to the O.G. Jason. Beat his ass twice, and showed him up with every return.

Tommy Oliver roundhouse kicked a robot T-rex in the face unmorphed.

Your argument is invalid.

When was this? Dino Thunder?

Regardless, that just means Jason can do it 10% better.

He is the proven better between the two, in direct combat, and statements.
