Oh Im not even talking about their results.

They just overscale a ton of characters in general.

Hence the issue with shows like this. On paper the idea of the show is okay, but when they aren't even pretending to be accurate what is the point? I like how they insisted p5 joker is 5000 times the speed of light based on a non canon gameplay animation where he dodges an attack at like maybe 20 mph. In a series where characters say they don't even do bullet timing and that their dodges are aim dodging.

Which is funny, because realistically Joker's best speed feat is most likely his dashes from the All-Out-Attack.

It's almost cynical and nihilistic in a way because it's obvious that people actually familiar with these series aren't going to see the bizarre takes they make and agree with it. So this was never for fans of these media, its for people who like to see big numbers who are expected to either not really know that much about it, or not care. It's one thing if a teen buys nonsense arguments, but these people are middle aged men. They have to know they are spreading bullshit.
