1. You took the Duke's sentance out of context
''I don't mind lecturing you in Ouki's stead, but unlike those dreamers etc etc'' this sentance has nothing to do with Duke's weight
How does one of the 6GG of Qin (by merit) explicitly stating his Glaive strikes more savagely than Ouki’s after talking about a life of day after day battles not explicitly reference Weight lmfao
2. Regardless, this desperate attempt at putting Duke Hyou's weight above Ouki's fails inherently as Ouki was able to thrash Houken, whereas the Duke posed no true challenge for Houken
Only if you value weight as the end all be all in fights, which is what my original comment was designed to show you the foolishness of
Yes, Duke Hyou had greater weight than Ouki. No, Weight doesn’t matter near as much as you think it does. And again, no, Renpa does not deserve the benefit of the doubt over the characters we have been explicitly told his weight was equal to, like Gaimou for example s
Besides the obvious Jiaga, who are these five
Playing dumb I see, lol
Kaishibou’s brute power was said by Genpou to be equal to Renpa
Bananji was said by Chiugaryuu to be a Renpa/Kaishibou level fighter
Gaimou’s weight was said to be “exactly the same as Renpa’s” by Shin who had fought both
Shin then said the exact same thing about Gyou’Un who was shown to be marginally stronger than Bananji against Akou.
If Renpa was dead equal with RSJ as a general, what does that have to do with Renpa's martial prowess specifically
Because your and
@MarineHQ ’s claims that Renpa was stronger than his peers “because he was a true Great General of the Heavens” don’t apply because the exact same thing could be said about Rinshoujou who was a fodder, clearly proving that being a Great General of the Heavens does not put Renpa martially above those 4 characters I just named.
In that regard, why don't we use someone who actually fought Renpa, might make more sense
So you’ll believe Shin who never saw Renpa fight Ouki, he only heard about it
But you’ll disbelieve Shin when he said Gaimou and Gyou’Un had the same weight as Renpa. Lol
So which is it? Is Shin reliable or is he not?
As for Ouki Vs Bayou Moubu, Saitaku made it clear who was the stronger of two, yet here we are acting like they're in an entirely different category.
Ah yes, Saitaku, the most credible source in the manga on martial strength on the battlefield, lets disregard all of the other top tier generals we’ve seen make strength claims, but let’s instead believe a guy who’s probably never even touched a sword
