Maybe this does introduce plot holes, it doesn’t prevent fictional characters from being light speed though. Heck, with several of the other nature defying aspects of devil fruit powers, I think that being able to get to light speed is one of the more trivial points.
@Kyza these people don't realize that science does really apply to all these characters. I promise you oda wasn't tryna break down light speed while writing one piece fights 🤦🏿♂️.
@@buckethatkidwastaken these characters are fictional our real world science can’t really apply to them and if your trying to debunk this video your gonna need to show some anti feats
People will be like “Do you think Oda thinks they can move that fast?” Well in an SBS, he said himself that to dodge Enel’s lightning you would need to “duck at light speed” which he has made Luffy and co do. So yh, Oda thinks that they can react/move that fast.
I saw it. I think that isn't supose to be taken seriously that acted more as an expression. There are characters who can dodge lightning without going light speed.
Awesome work. Try calculating Doflamingo and katakuri Strength power speed endurance and durability Next please because people tend to downplay them a lot keep up the awesome work
just because you don't get shot doesn't mean you're faster than the bullet. You're just faster than the guy aiming the gun. Also, Reason why kizaru is the only light speed character is kizaru's fruit only allows him to travel at light speed when he's going all out and being serious (when he fully transforms into visible light and starts behaving like it by that I mean his body is technically made of light photons but he isn't behaving like a wave instead it's behaving as a particle fully transforming into visible light is him changing his photon properties to be exactly like actual light as we know it irl) , because he can't change directions while moving at the speed of light so first he has to like "plan" his flight path that's why rayleigh was able to stop him from reaching pts luffy and his crew rayleigh wasn't light speed but he took advantage of the fact that kizaru can't be reckless with his power otherwise he'd go straight into the ocean at lightspeed or end up somewhere else entirely, and another proof is big mom unless you are trying to tell me Basil Hawkins has a faster reaction speed than big mom. because lightning is 1/3 the speed of light and if big mom wasn't able to react to nami's lightning bolt that would mean Basil Hawkins has at least 3x big mom's reaction speed seeing as he was tracking kizaru's kick (this is if you think everything kizaru does is lightspeed, but if kizaru is only able to reach his top speed once fully changing the properties of the photons in his body to act like a wave then this would explain the big mom thing)
I don't want to be high-balling the germa, especially if it's unnecessary, but in some other versions of the manga (other languages) Niji's attack is actually named tachyon blade instead of lightspeed sword (which would make him even faster than light)
@@andyikari7867 i mean like devil fruits are powers given by gods or concepts thats why they exsist it sounds like i dont make sense but think about it
I would say that almost every new world character is ftl and hear me out. Of cause the irrelevant side characters might not be, but the main villains, pirates ext. is. In the thriller bark arc Kuma states that his attack is light speed. A near death Zoro then proceeds to dodge hundreds of set attack. Doesn’t that make pretty much any character faster than Thriller bark Zoro ftl? I might be wrong so just corrected me if I missed something:))
Facts Bro. Oda even confirmed in the Databook that Kiazuru is Light speed, and the Pacifista's laser beams are originating from his fruit, thus Luffy dodged light speed attacks
When the yellow monkey was introduced. You know Admiral Borsalino A.k.a. Kizaru. We were told by the creator that he is light speed and the fastest character everyone was able to react to Blackbeard but people couldn’t react fast enough to Kizaru.
@@lxfj2128 he’s uni+ now as he exceeds infinite 3D and is 4D, if you transcend 3D-inf 3D you are universal+ and he’s mftl+ with some infinite speed metas
Great video, I agreed with the Kuma, Ichiji, and black beard points. However, the Niji one seems like a bit of a reach given that his power is lightning and that the translation is like electro something(forgot the same but it has electro) So I'd say thats 1/3 of light rather than ftl
Tbh it doesn’t really matter that much. The direct translation is still “electromotive *light* sword”, which is essentially a light speed sword powered by electricity. Plus it isn’t really a stretch that he’s light speed, considering that both Sanji and Ichiji scale to him, and both of them have had direct light speed statements and feats.
@@incalculablesolarpower850 It is literally stated to be a “Light *Speed* Sword” lol. When something is electromotive it’s essentially powered by electricity to be able to move at a certain speed, and seeing as the word “light” is used to both name the sword and gage that speed it’s pretty clear that’s what they were going for.
@@incalculablesolarpower850 again, the word light is used directly after the kanji for “electromotive” to suggest that that is the basic diagnosis for it’s level of speed.
Light speed in one piece verse is just confirmed irregular. We all know that nobody these is actually moving at our version of light speed. If other verses where characters move light speed joined one piece’s verse they’d appear slower and if one piece characters joined a verse where light speed is faster, they would appear faster.
@@ivar5162 lol no. Litterally all natsu immeasurable speed feats are debunkable. Zeref transending time doesnt do shit because transending time does not mean you move at immeasurable speed. Anyone with time related abilities can transend time. And if your going to use the argument that he moved when dimaria stopped time, thats just because he has immunity to time magic. If you dont agree with me, Ill debate you.
@@ivar5162 yes because a child of a dragon who knocked down a so called “immortal” who was pretty weak can stand up to a rubber human who defeated a god and broke an island I’m sorry but Natsu is no where near Luffy’s level
How in the world did you convince yourself that blackbeard casually pulls people in at light speed? You are spouting out all these numbers but not explaining them. Did you somehow extract random numbers from the word “infinite”? When he says even light can’t escape, he is referring to how, once inside a black hole, light can’t escape. This says nothing about how fast he pulls people. Kuma could just be repelling a minute amount of air particles at light speed, which would naturally create shockwaves. Law shooting radiation doesn’t make him himself move at light speed. Calling a sword “light speed sword” doesn’t make it light speed. It could definitely be exaggerated, especially when his entire theming is electricity, not light. Ichiji shot vague projectiles and then moved past them. Idk why you just assume these are lasers and not just any other material or maser.
It's as if a rail cannon repelling a projectile at Mach 6 isn't actually Mach 6. Sure, Kuma's Air Paw Cannons may not be LS but at the very least relativistic as they can slow down but due to the small distance between him and Zoro, it's LS. Don't assume shit also. Could be just repelling a minute amount of air particles. In the manga he literally states that his paw cannons repels air at light speed. The black hole thing is...idk. Though, Light and Energy cannot escape a Black Hole when it is being sucked not once it's inside since a Black Hole doesn't have an Inside, it's just pure obliteration once you get sucked in. Law doesn't shoot radiation-. So....idk what he's talking about. The Ichiji one. I'm not sure either. Lol.
@@death1406 yeah I could also be wrong about paw, but I don’t think it matters either way. Kuma has to manually thrust his arms to fire them, so Zoro could just be reacting to that instead
“Kuma has to manually thrust his arms to fire them, so Zoro could just be reacting to that instead” Before he even dodges any pad cannons Zoro was able to dodge a direct hit from Kuma’s arm in chapter 484, meaning even if the shockwave doesn’t scale to Kuma’s combat speed Zoro still does. And the first time he does dodge a shockwave he dodges well after Kuma’s pushed it while it’s still traveling. Beyond that there are indicators that Kuma doesn’t even need to move his arms to use that pads pushing power, like when he deflected Zoro’s slashes or when he tagged Franky.
I'm actually so tired of people who just keep using the concept of dodging lasers ... its the dumbest thing I've ever heard I'll give you an example Batman once dodged an omega beam from darkseid. The same omega beam that barry barely managed to dodge. Superman got hit by it and yet batman could. But does that mean that batman is faster than flash or superman?
Hey i like your channel,and you said that you also making the video about games too right? So here is my request,can you make a video of how strong is kratos from god of war series,because i know he’s damn strong,like he can wield “atlas hammer” that said the weight is the weight of the world itself,and he swing it easily
He said that at upon getting to certain subscriber goals, he’d cover Ichigo’s and Naruto’s scaling. If he’s willing to do it for the main characters, I’d hope he’s willing to cover other characters/feats from those series.
Laser beams are light, therefore they travel at a speed of light at a bare minimum. In fact, Laser beams can go faster than light and theres even one that goes 300x faster than light (in real life, not one piece)
@@rl-nj7gb you pulled that out of your ass, they theorized that they created a laser that "can" travel faster than light, not 300 times faster, and all that is in a controlled vacuum
Ever since the Alabasta Arc, people should know that every Devil Fruit eater can be faster than their intended fruit. Kizaru is FTL+ or MFTL since according to Crocodile. " The Devil Fruit is extremely dangerous depending on how you use it and how much you've trained with it. Unlike some idiots who are satisfied just by merely having Devil Fruit powers, I trained my Devil Fruit and honed it to Perfection. "
Hey can read about Energy Steroid in one piece that were used in fish man island because it’s doubling the power of the consumer so that proves that luffy can double his power. This is the link onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Energy_Steroid
They don’t understand that Kizaru is just lucky in that he doesn’t have to train to be light speed, whereas other people do. That and he’s the only one that can travel long distances at that speed, everyone else is limited to just being that fast (or faster) during combat.
They just have detection but still thry will require to move faster than light to dodged lightspeed attacks. Fyi even fodders in onepiece dodged lightspeed.
You're literally saying to dodge a bullet you just need to predict where it's gonna come from. You totally don't need speed to dodge the bullet. Totally.
honestly this list is ridiculous and that yami yami no mi talk was bullshit he doesn’t kno how a black hole works and him saying cold is a concept was also stupid everything is a concept ik wat he was trying to day tho but no just no
@Kyza it's universal rules if dbz characters move at light speed then that means cities would be destroyed everywhere they flew idiot doesn't they aren't lightspeed different universes have different rules
Actual lasers made from light doesn't work the way Kizaru's beams do, so their is no reason to assume they actually move at the speed of light. If the characters could move the speed of light, why the hell would they need boats? They could run across the water so fast that they could reach the next island in less than a second.
Travel and fighting speed are completely different, also, there are many characters that dont use boat, take ace for example, he uses his fire to boost him with that thing, idk what its called, aokiji,he just,idk, fucking uses a bike to travel the world
@@kensulaken7018 Why can't they travel at the same speed that they move during a fight? Are you saying they run out of stamina if they move at full speed for even a second? Also, I am aware that some characters don't need boats, but almost nobody in the new world should need them since they could just run across the ocean. Also, how the hell was shanks so late for Marineford if his crew could move so fast?
@@kensulaken7018 So you agree with me that the video is wrong and there is no way the characters can move their whole bodies at the speed of light? You believe they can only fire off attacks that travel at that speed?
Now that we talk about light, what of kizaru can move faster than light, maybe by not going in full lightmode he can mpve faster? Maybe ot could be his awakening? Yeah i highly doubt the last questuon, but the first one is a possibility. Well have a good day whoever you are, and pls dont be mean to people.
It's also strange how Kizaru never turns into light when fighting High/Top Teirs but he uses light attacks when he's not trying (against the Supernova). He could be FTL in base . It's like if anyone from Enies Lobby onwards are Enel's fruit. They would be faster than lightning but it would still be a useful fruit. It's also possible that he can move FTL with light. Of Logoas could only go at the same speed as their fruits, then Akainu should be nearly stationary. Also, future sight exists. Since both Akainu and Aokiji have shown signs fo it, it's not too crazy to assume that he has it too. He could have the best future sight in the verse.
Travel speed = / = Combat speed. Also ever heard of people being faster than light? Yes, it's possible in Battle Shounen otherwise you are implying that Goku and Naruto aren't moving than speed of light. Nami's coincidentally is using lightning, yet even Kalifa the weakest amongst CP9 dodged it with ease, most High tier reacted to Kizaru's light speed. Furthermore, Luffy is FTL, but that only applies to his combat and reaction speed, and not his travel speed. A boxer can punch faster than a human's eyes but they can't outrun a Car, simple.
If they dodged lasers it would be a reaction and reactions are always the fastest, when someone talks about speed it’s usually combat speed, so unless these people specifically said not the SoL at all, then I think you read their comments wrong, luffy had SoL reactions in gear 2 and his base strength as strong as gear two if not stronger in post timeskip, I’d say base reaction is 1-1.5 times and his combat is relativistic-relativistic+, with new gear two being 2-3 Times ftl, the other forms don’t have muktipliers and don’t increase speed much either so probably 3-4 reactions with SoL combat speed in snake man
Luffy post whole cake island should be able to fight faster then light in base form vsbattles.com/threads/one-piece-characters-light-speed-or-faster.112056/
@@Pinamodada well that's wrong... Since we know that ichiji is minimum light speed and katakuri destroyed him while not trying... And luffy in base and 2nd gear was able to compete and keep up with katakuri with speed which means after whole cake island luffy is minimum 5-8x light speed in base.... This is also a BIG lowball... Since we know that gear 2 is more then 5x multiplier and same with gear 4th... Because both times he transformed his opponents were unable to react or see luffy (because you need to be much more then 5x faster to not be able to react or see)... But gear 4th should be minimum 10x multiplier since doflamingo couldn't react even with observation haki... Luffy with his worst observation haki can react to light speed like it's nothing...
@@Pinamodada reread the link and actually think how fast you actually need to be when you are fighting someone who is ftl and he is not be able to react with observation haki which should be superior to luffy's observation haki that can react to light speed super easily and calls them too slow...
NOTHING with Mass can move at “lightspeed”. Anime characters with techniques that break their bodies down, I agree they can reach lightspeed. But a character running or flying at lightspeed… makes no sense at all Power scalers always try to make this case, but it always comes to “don’t use real world concepts in anime” meanwhile they have characters moving at lightspeeds having full-blown conversations to go a few miles
“ Anime characters with techniques that break their bodies down, I agree they can reach lightspeed. But a character running or flying at lightspeed… makes no sense at all” Why is the former believable in fiction and not the latter? People in real life can’t “break their bodies down” any more than they can get to light speed, so why hold this standard for fictional characters that other impossible abilities are ok, but lightspeed is somehow the limit?
@@michaeldorsey9231 because turning into light etc follows the established rules of the world. It is stated that there are special abilities that allow this to happen. Breaking the light speed barrier is not in the category, and it violates the fundamentals of our universe.
@@death1406 if a show doesn’t flat out state that some fundamental law of our universe is being violated of altered, then I don’t assume it is. Especially when there isn’t really any solid reason to do so anyways.
“if a show doesn’t flat out state that some fundamental law of our universe is being violated of altered, then I don’t assume it is.” One Piece characters flat out refer to light based attacks as being “lightspeed”; how is that not an indication that light/lasers function differently than they do in the real world?
Its fun jokes and all but gotta remember that anything that has mass if moved from point A to point B at light speed or close to light speed, might cause a destruction similar to an atomic bomb. So statements should be taken with a grain of salt.
Saying gamma knife is lightspeed due to its name having gamma is like saying Vegeta's big bang attack has all the combined energy of a big bang or that one punch man can literally one shot everyone due to his name
The knife itself doesn't necessarily move at light speed unless the user can swing it that fast which Law has been shown to be capable of. Similar to Ichiji you can see the light trailing behind the blade. That said the effect of the attack spreads at light speed because it is actually light and Doffy was fast enough to counter it with his strings.
@@killer-_-bthemarkedwarrior2562 but that doesn’t make law lightspeed though, doesn’t matter if an element of his attack is it’s not like law controls it at lightspeed so my point still stands for this guy having bias
@@kobiiscoolerthanyou7877 I never said Law is Light Speed... I said his Attack was bruh. If we talk about Law's Speed, then he literally Teleports, which is Incalculable and is Infinitely Faster than Light. But yeah, his Gamma Knife Attack is Light Speed due to The Radio Waves.
@@killer-_-bthemarkedwarrior2562 well I wasn’t going after you specifically, but my original post was about how the video is taking about the characters that are lightspeed but I disproved it
It depends on the distance you traveled to dodge it; Luffy covered a comparable distance to the laser that was fired at him in chapter 508, and by Idea Shock’s pixel scaling he would have needed to move slightly FTL.
Yeah he said air is repelled at light speed which means his paws had to be moving at light speed aswell for the air to be getting repelled at the same speed
Dodging "lasers" doesn't make one ftl. First some of the examples you use don't meet the criteria for them to be considered light speed attacks, also most are aim dodging similar to the way batman dodges bullets, but is nowhere near bullet speed, you would have to be relative to light but not light speed.
I mean lasers move at light speed tho 🤔 And Oda confirm that his character can move faster than light (doesn't mean constant speed tho it could be an instant transmission situation or a super fast dash) And bullet is predictable it's like dodging water droplets in a shower
@@oreoicecream1829 bullets at least have bullet drop. Lasers literally move in a straight line. You think that’s somehow not predictable? Its basically the most predictable a ranged attack can be
@@oreoicecream1829 that’s still irrelevant. The slight bends earth’s gravity will have on light is negligible compared to the effect gravity has on bullets
Is this satire? Luffy is not light speed or fast than light, he can dodge lasers with observation haki. But luffy cannot at full speed be running and be going to light speed that’s a joke
Luffy has several laser dodging feats/scaling before he gets his Haki. Even if he can’t go that fast over long distances, he can react and combat at those speeds.
He still needs to be faster than light to dodge a constant LS Beam, even if he has the reaction time to do it. It's like with Sasuke's Sharingan when he was a kid against Rock Lee, he was able to react to it but his body can't keep up with him due to being slower than him.
@@death1406 it being constant changes nothing. The sun is constantly shooting light speed beams at my yard but if I know the sun is going to rise tomorrow I can still avoid being hit by those beams by going inside before morning
If the ace blackbeard feat is proof of light speed then so is uraraka and thirteen from my hero academia 😂😂 Blackholes that small also dont instantly accelerate things to light speed so no ace is not flying towards blackbeard at lightspeed. If blackbeards gravity was truly infinite or even close to a real black hole it would swallow the entire planet but it doesnt (but hey let me guess the durability of the planet is just that high 😂😂) With Kuma do u not consider that to be an embellishment? If his paw pads truly move at light speed why did it take luffy days to get the amazon lily (oh wait the one piece world must just be that big, yeh sure its the size of hundreds of solar systems 😂😂) Yes laws shambles is faster than light but his gamma knife what? It just means using his devil fruit it emits gamma rays into his opponent. Lasers in fiction could never be assumed to be light speed, if they were light they wouldnt cause destruction like we see as they would have no mass so wouldnt be effective. Lasers in fiction usually tend to be plasma instead which explains all their properties same with kizarus devil fruit, for any of this attacks to deal damage or cause explosions they must have mass so like the pacifistas hes probably also just using plasma. I dont doubt kizaru can travel at light speed since he becomes able to reflect off stuff but if his attacks were also true light wouldnt they also just reflect off stuff??? With the lightspeed sword just be a miss translation if the real translation is electromotive light sword because that would suggest it's only actually the speed of lightning. Ichiji would also just be firing plasma beams and the lightning coming from his eyes is just that lightning so hes only faster than those 2 things. Also let's not forget to mention odas statement that lightspeed is required to dodge lightning but lightning is only 0.05% the speed of light suggesting that either oda doesnt know what hes talking about when it comes to light speed or the speed of "light" in one is significantly slower. Light speed for alot of one piece characters would also not make any narrative sense. If someone is lightspeed they could search every single inch of the globe in seconds so why if everyone is lightspeed is the one piece still hidden. If doflamingo was comparable to a FTL luffy why wasnt he able to search the entirety of dressrosa in the 10 minutes luffy down after gear 4th because he should've been able to near instantly
“ If blackbeards gravity was truly infinite or even close to a real black hole it would swallow the entire planet but it doesnt ” Blackbeard is explicitly shown to be able to control where his darkness spreads, and what it captures in its gravity. While it would be more realistic for Blackbeard’s gravity to swallow stuff indiscriminately, the in story rules for Teach’s devil fruit indicate otherwise. This would invite the question of, “if Teach’s darkness can differ from black holes in these ways, wouldn’t that mean that it could also have weaker gravity than actual black holes?” I wouldn’t fault anyone for answering yes to this, especially since much of the stuff Teach captures and regurgitates from his darkness isn’t damaged anywhere near what it should be, but given that his fruit has allowed him to attract/capture characters with relativistic to FTL scaling, I wouldn’t rule out the comparison to actual black holes.
“ With Kuma do u not consider that to be an embellishment? If his paw pads truly move at light speed why did it take luffy days to get the amazon lily” Why would Kuma say this as hyperbole? If lightspeed is beyond the characters at that moment, wouldn’t a tired Zoro call out Kuma for overhyping his abilities? I’m pretty sure if someone claimed that they could shoot projectiles at the speed of sound, and I was able to dodge them, I’d be able to call bs. Beyond that, if Kuma couldn’t push things that fast, wouldn’t Kizaru and Luffy have been able to see the Straw Hats flying through the air? The former would need FTL reaction speed since he uses his fruit for movement, and the latter has slightly FTL speed from his Pacifista laser dodging feat. I don’t know if there’s anything in the manga to contradict this, but given how long the Straw Hats travel I assume that Kuma would have sent them into a temporary orbit.
“ Lasers in fiction could never be assumed to be light speed, if they were light they wouldnt cause destruction like we see as they would have no mass so wouldnt be effective. ” Neat, that’s a realistic depiction of lasers, but this is a fictional setting where the abilities of elements are expanded on. Need I remind you that in this world dinosaurs apparently have body manipulation abilities that real dinosaurs never did?
“ I dont doubt kizaru can travel at light speed since he becomes able to reflect off stuff but if his attacks were also true light wouldnt they also just reflect off stuff???” If he can travel in his light form, and if his intent is for his attacks to hit their targets, why would they be any slower or be made to reflect off of anything before they explode?
Lasers in fiction are not always lightspeed. After all, kid Goku was dodging lasers since the very beginning of OG Dragonball but wasn't fast enough to dodge lightning bolts until WAY later in the series. He wasn't, of course, faster than light back then. That would be completely nonsensical. You can clearly see Goku showing relativistic feats when scaling him to Raditz or when he blitzed from one side of Namek to the other in an instant. Back to One Piece. Kizaru surely IS lightspeed - bare minimum. But arguments can be made even against Pacifistas since that would mean that EVERY HUMAN in One Piece is lightspeed. Making EVERY SINGLE statement about how impressive Kizaru is... worthless. (And making everyone a dick for not blitzing on the battlefield when people need them, but slowly running all the way there at a human-like speed)
“ But arguments can be made even against Pacifistas since that would mean that EVERY HUMAN in One Piece is lightspeed.” I think it would more so be an argument that every pirate seen at Marineford is comparable to that speed, which isn’t entirely unreasonable given that they’re all new world pirates.
This man lost all his validity when he said, "photons are particles that move at light speed" "keep to the ones that are canonically light speed" ...... photons are light.. there's no difference, light speed comes from the speed of a photon there's no "canonical" photon speed
@@kobiiscoolerthanyou7877 no because light in one piece is states to work dif. Light took a second to reach an island where light speed would take you around the world 6 times in 1 second. This dude just doesnt know what photons are
Smh we need better power scaling in every fandom, Blackbeard isn’t light speed, he also isn’t moving at SOL ace just got his shit wrecked Kuma isn’t light speed neither is Zoro one has a light speed attack and the other has light speed reaction Niji and Ichiji have maybe a light speed attack and travel but tht is still not SOL Also Luffy and others definitely have SOL reaction time and some may have SOL attacks but until someone from OP can attain SOL attack,reaction,combat and travel nobody is SOL not even Kizaru since he doesn’t walk/run/punch/kick at SOL until he uses his SOL attack
