for some reason people have the impression that womb or human naoya have better acceleration, we didn’t even see womb naoya stack yet people believe that version alluded to being way slower is of VCS naoya’s level.

VCS naoya was holding off most of his speed and even then he still blitzed kamo, the biggest misconception i see is that he can’t blitz kamo without stacking when that happens 7 pages into their “fight”. cursed womb naoya couldn’t afford nor had room for any errors, notice how quickly he was dealt with? he wasn’t as cocky knowing his INCOMPLETE state.

the speed when activating the technique is stated to be limited by the acceleration of the body, VCS naoya has the perfect body engineered and tailored for his technique. why would there be a specific limitation on him when everything says it’s the opposite?

saying VCS naoya in base is slower than cursed wombya implies that dagon got nerfed as he evolved as well.

let’s do some chain-scaling here with maki as a reference point.

we have a maki who has been in the shinjuku fight for some time, softened up prior and takes a black-flash arguably off-guard. she bounces back within the next chapter and a half, even sukuna is taken back by the fact that she was mostly fine.

maki then takes another black-flash and this time her condition is way worse, she coughs up blood and is taken out of the fight for a while.

now let’s look at fully fledged curse naoya who was fighting maki who hadn’t been in any other fights basically top condition, with his first initial hit he was able to produce results similar to sukuna’s SECOND black flash. it’s also important to account for kamo who used his blood manipulation to soften the blow naoya did and maki was fully prepared in anticipation, 100% on guard so this doesn’t showcase the full scope of his magnitude.

this dude is genuinely among the top 5 in raw AP alone, i’m not arguing that he is sukuna level because this is a nerfed sukuna after all but that still doesn’t detract from the impressive feat.

he honestly looks quite beefy for someone who’s a couple of years away from asking kenjaku a reincarnation tutorial.

and people try to scale him to fully stacked curse naoya when he dosent even hold a candle to unstacked human naoya’s speed lmao.

what we would’ve gotten had m*ki not interfered by modulo.
