      Meruem after rebirth can easily be Dragon level. I mean, Bakuzan was Dragon level and he wasn't more impressive than Meruem before rebirth.
      Bakuzan's flurry of punches were enough to severely beat up Suiryu who's feats put him at a much lower level than even Netero. Netero's Hatsu (100 hand buddha) is similar to Bakuzans flurry of punches, but maybe even stronger (since it punched through layers of ground and sand, eventually breaking into a tomb down below.
      While in Bakuzan's case, he barely did any damage to the ground that he was punching. And Meruem easily tanked all of Netero's (buddha) punches with barely any damage. Meaning that Meruem could defeat the low Dragon Bakuzan.
      But an argument can also be made for DSK in that he was naturally from the deep sea, so that would mean that in the sea, he could have also been a dragon level.

      ​@@GuyLogen Bakuzan has literally no feats tho? Suriyu might be on the level of some weaker s class hero's, and you see how DSK just destoyed puri, and he's only demon level. Bakuzan was toying with Suriyu, he is a martial artist and wanted to show him how much stronger he is then Suriyu. Atherwise he could have just one shot him if he wanted too. And instantly after that Bakuzan fought saitama, and we all know how that ended for him. Mereum is definitly not dragon level.

    • @GuyLogen
      @GuyLogen Рік тому +21

      @@hollow3450 I doubt that Bakuzan could have one-shot Suiryu. He wanted to make Suiryu suffer and humiliate him sure, but he was still aggressively jumping and pounding on him without seemingly withholding anything.
      He thought he was the shit until Gouketsu in one punch blew out part of the stadium they were in, which humbled Bakuzan.
      Yet he was still classified as a dragon level. When comparing Meruem and Suiryu, it would be foolish to say that Suiryu has better durability than Meruem. Meruem easily tanked Netero's flurry of Buddha punches with no visible damage. He even tanked a concentrated nen blast with only a few scratches. So I think Meruem could rank as a low Dragon easily.
      For the record, I think Bakuzan loses to Netero as well.

      That is an excellent point, one which I don't often see brought up in versus debates between blast-capable characters.
      Not every blast they throw packs their full destructive power, if it did then the further up the power scale you go the more likely they would be to blow the planet out from under themselves by accident.
      Another thing to consider is _what_ they're throwing around.
      Deep Sea King's biggest advantage is his regen ability, fire and physical force could hurt him, but couldn't deal lasting damage at the intensity Genos was using. Basic Nen attacks on the other hand can rip unprotected bodies to pieces from the inside and cause crippling agony that lasts for hours, and the Deep Sea king didn't show any form of energy control skills that I can recall which means that he's likely wide open.

    I’d argue that Deep Sea Kings durability could possibly be way higher than Meruems. Remember that deep sea king in his dry form, was relative to Genos. The same Genos who (even before his upgrade post Carnage Kabuto) was able to completely destroy a tower with arm canon blast and output a blast that cleared out mosquitos in multiple city blocks. Deep Sea King then goes on to fight an upgraded Genos who takes punches and blasts from him that barely put a scratch on him and/or regenerates from them. And he only grows in power in his true form

      It took a nuke to defeat Meruem, and even then he wasn't fully evaporated. Plus he got revived to be even stronger than his previous form. I just don't see DSK surviving a nuke or even half of a nuke. But then again, it took 1 punch from saitama, which was capable of clearing the rain from the perceivable city, to kill DSK in his "rain form".
      This is all not even considering just how powerful DSK could get underwater. You could make an argument that DSK underwater is probably easily Dragon level and would be able to defeat Meruem, considering that DSK can also regenerate.
      His regeneration under light rain was great enough to heal a blasted cheek from Genos which blew a large hole through multiple apartment buildings.

    I think classifying Meruem so low is a little unfair, considering he never encountered a situation where he required to use anything more than his physical and mental capacities.
    His Nen is a wildcard that, faced with a superior opponent not resorting to a super poison nuke he had no prior knowledge of, could have been utilised to create a Nen ability that would drastically boost his combat abilities or provide him hax to deal with others.

      I only added the monster cells as an out-of-battle consideration for Meruem if he was simply placed in the OPM world, since the video discusses his potential class.
      The difference between gaining Nen and monster cells is that 1) A Monster Cell is an available resource in the OPM universe, and at some point in the video they mentioned placing Meruem in the world of OPM.
      2) Meruem's entire species is able to adopt beneficial traits from other species, and monster cells give beneficial traits to anyone that consumes them. Chances are it would happen.
      3) Assuming DSK somehow got Nen, and accessed it, sure. He'd kick Meruem around even more than before. He wins in pure physical stats and thus a brawl, *assuming he didn't drag out fights like he tends to and give Meruem a chance to develop a Nen ability to even the playing field.*

    nen can literally bend the fabric of reality as can be seen from Basho's poem skill, all you need is an abundance of nen and a bit of creativity to cripple his opponent's vital abilities such as regeneration

    Meruem only used the very basic Nen abilities.
    At no point in the series did Mereum develop his own true Nen ability.
    When opposed by someone like DSK who is faster/stronger then its a high probability that Mereum would create an actual Nen ability to help him win the battle.
    I see this as a no contest because HxH's Nen system is designed so that weaker characters can still defeat stronger characters through intelligent use of Nen.
    And DSK isn't that much stronger/faster that Mereum's incredible intelligence and Nen use couldn't turn the tide.

    i would say tho that it is stated that in less than a minute, Netero and Meruem traded hundreds of thousand of blows, and that is with Meruem bwing blown away each time, having to recover and leap back, i would say that this statement should re evaluate Netero and Meruem's speed by a good margin. But bypassing the DSK regen would indeed be very hard.
    On a side note, catching a bullet requires reaction time around speed of sound, however that doesn't automatically mean you can also run at the speed of sound, ad even if you could, it would be probably tiring to do it for a long period of time, however we did see Cheetu doing that because it wasn't only his reaction time but also his movement speed to be at that level.

  • @WxnderXfU
    @WxnderXfU Рік тому +8

    The thing about HxH is that bullets really become something very irrelevant as soon as nen comes into play. Nen has so much different applications and abilities that for me, characters in HxH don't need to be as fast as ligthning to dodge and catch them. I think a good example of that is nobunaga. Nobunaga has never displayed any nen ability other than En, and he said and proved that anybody who would enter his En's range would be instantly killed. To me, when you start mastering nen in HxH, catching, dodging, destroying bullets etc becomes almost instinctive. Another argument I think is interesting is that some people are able to give clear orders to their nen, so, I'd say it's pretty easy from this to print into your instinct, at least when a nen ability is used, to dodge a bullet.
    Not trying to argue with the end result of the versus, just wanted to extend on the bullet dodging, catching, etc in HxH

    I feel like there is one thing that people always forget about nen in the hunter x hunter universe when doing these kinds of comparison with other anime, and that is that you can basically only defend against nen by using nen yourself. If you can't at least use Ten, just being inside the aura of another person would be enough to cause some major psychological damage that would prevent you from fighting at your best. In fact, you would barely be able to approach that person due to the incredible pressure that they would exert. Taking a nen attack without defending with your own nen would immediately cause severe damage, regardless of your natural durability, especially if that attack was dealt with the intent to kill. Nen is a supernatural ability, and it shouldn't be considered just as a mere physical enhancement ability.

Learning Ten was enough for them to be able to withstand that kind of pressure but I want to point out that even Ten might not be enough to withstand the incredible pressure of post bomb meruem's aura. Welfin is a nen user capable of using Ten, but when confronted with Meruem, his pressure was enough to cause not only severe psychological damage but also physical changes (lost of hair, rapid aging due to extreme stress).

    I do think you're underestimating Meruem's speed by a huge margin though.
    During the one minute long battle with Netero's Bodhisattva Guanyin he wasn't just standing in one spot and getting pummeled, both sides made thousands of plays in that minute.
    I have no idea where that would put him on the Mach scale, but it should be at least above Sonic's level.

      The laws of physics is boring, i know, but i just dont understand why people continue to amp characters to "lightspeed" "faster than light speed" and etc without really thinking about mechanics of this ability and how it will work, not using it just as a flashy statement to make character appear more badass

Meruem fought the strongest hunter, Netero (or was as he did was past his prime) and if you look at the battle entirely was completely overmatched by him, with Netero not being able to damage him whatsoever even with his Nen-ability and only able to win with the explosion, meaning he definetily was a threat to humanity in general and in the OPM universe could be seen as a God-Level threat, he only wins with an explosion that i personally am 100% sure even with his regenerative abilities the DSK wouldn't be able to survive either!

    @duskmare0000 Рік тому +1

    I think the issue might be that you're trying to compare damage based on how much collateral damage it does. That's like saying a club is better than a sword because it can smash a melon while the sword only cuts a small line through it. Similarly a solid slug rail-gun shell hitting something and causing a small impact explosion will often carry more power than a traditional shell which carries a payload to create a chemically aided explosion.
    So in this example, comparing their abilities based on how much they seemed to destroy isn't accurate. Plus, there's no accounting for the building itself. A modern skyscraper is likely to be more solid than an old stone palace, for example. Especially if the palace is made of something like sandstone.
    Much like with my example of a sword vs a club, the way people fight in Hunter X Hunter is much more precise. In One Punch Man you have people throwing very powerful but careless punches sending destructive shockwaves out. Meanwhile in Hunter Hunter you often see people with their hand outstretched, chopping rather than punching, or using pure nen attacks which might not even have air resistance act on them. So a hit from Netero might seem less damaging but it might carry much more force, just focused on a smaller area. Similarly Meruem cuts off limbs rather than slapping Netero's leg and shattering half his body.
    I think Meruem is much stronger than the Deep Sea King. I mean, the deep sea king gives Mumen Rider quite a thrashing and he's just a normal human, but he survives. Meruem on the other hand has taken the head off other chimera ants, killing them instantly with just a flick of his tail, and they're much more sturdy than humans. While the Deep Sea King can regenerate quickly, he probably still has the same weakness many regenerating characters have, which is that the destruction of some vital part, usually the brain, will kill them or wipe their memories. Or that they can be paralyzed or even run out of nutrients from which they grow limbs in a battle of attrition, etc.
    So Meruem's precision strikes would likely bypass the regeneration of the Deep Sea King entirely.
    Power aside, Meruem might still lose on speed. Though I'm sure he would come up with a classic counterattack strategy like the whole "hit me where it's not vital so I can restrain you" self-sacrifice technique, or if he's simply fast enough to match any attacks sent toward him he could win in a fist to fist clash.
    It's honestly very hard to judge much about One Punch Man's power levels. They're often quite flexible due to the comedic nature of the show. The best example is when Saitama can't beat Bang at a test of speed and reflexes, even though he trounced a crazy fast star being. Or how he couldn't catch a single mosquito. When it suits the comedy or drama One Punch Man's power system takes a back seat. I think that's why Mumen Rider survives as well. Most conflicts do tend to be drama based.
    Ultimately I'd put my money on Meruem winning.

    One thing to keep in mind when scaling the Ant King to Netero is the context of their fight.
    You noted that his defence is the only thing that allowed him to defeat Netero, but he was specifically only aiming to make the chairman concede so he could learn his own name. His attack potency was enough to remove limbs instantly after closing the distance, but killing Netero was never his goal, so his true max ceiling for his damage was never even brushed against. His defence was the only thing that allowed him to win, but that's because killing Netero instantly wouldn't have been a victory, not because he couldn't theoretically do it.
    The only stats that can be concretely determined from this are his speed (he's faster than Netero in every way except for attack speed) and his durability (being able to survive a point blank small-scale nuclear bomb's blast, albeit pushing the very limits of his durability).
