Voting Round 1 Ruphas Mafahl vs. Kento Nanami

[z.5]

The full ability list is so much bigger. That was just the stuff under the heading "Goddess". The only bit I edited out of that was

She's the MC, right?

How is there any challenges to be had, if she is anywhere near as powerful as it sounds like she is?

Either:

1. Both of us are misreading the list, somehow (though I dunno how we could be)
2. The person who wrote that wiki has vastly overestimated her
3. The manga is basically just an excuse to look at pretty pictures

I do worry that it's the 3rd option, but (going by these VS pages) I can't entirely rule out the 2nd being a strong possibility

Up until the point I read she was pretty much a Saitama in her story.

She might be the most powerful character I've ever seen actually. I can't think of anything that goes beyond her.

Azathoth (Cthulhu Mythos)

Azathoth is the lord and master of all existence, governor of the outer chaos that serves as the residence of the all-powerful Ultimate Gods and primordial creator of all things, who resides on a black throne at the center of the Abyss, from which he rules all of time and space, lying in a...

How about Azathoth?

I guess there is the option that it's a gag manga/the story isn't really about her - she just acts like Saitama does and acts as a metaphorical full-stop to each chapter/villain in the manga

Option 4. It's just one of those where at the end of the series she becomes an unstoppable god and the series ends that way. There are a couple that do. But that's probably the most extreme version of that if true.

It's amazing how little direct action the gods actually took in Lovecraft's books - they are OP, sure, but it is irrelevant as the stories are often about all the other fucked up shit that's going on

I don't know him but yeah that seems to be in the same weight class at least.

 

[Nie Li]

The person who nominated Ruphas hasn't even spoke in her favor yet and we have all already come to accept how overpowered she is.

Agreed,the stories feature cosmic horror which is one of the main features.

He is far above Ruphas in my opinion.

Can you imagine everything in existence is just his dream.

So he's a much uglier Akane Shinjou.

yo i was busy but damn this is a one sided massacre.

As everyone here saw that she is a god tier character but the thing it s that she reaches that level of power at the end of the novel where they are basically fighting conceptual battle.
