Yu Yu Hakusho Quick Scaling

Was talking about YYH the other day and it came up briefly that it would be helpful if I made a blog like this. I'm not an expert at YYH but I like it a lot, so I figured I'd make a quick blog on YYH's scaling as far as I know.

Seperating this 3 categories; manga low-ball (what I think is safe to assume, what I generally use), manga high-ball (what people think is likely, but is not a "safe" assumption), and anime scaling.


Manga Low-Ball:

Lower E Class: Start of series Yusuke was able to put Kuwabara's head through cement

Lower D Class: Gouki can easily cut a tree in half and has skin stated to be as hard as steel (At least wall, calced to megajoules.) Yusuke at this point fired his Spirit Gun fast enough that it went through Byakko's head faster then his body could react and lower from the wound, calced at being just over the speed of sound. 

Lower C Class: Byakko can pulverize stone segments with his shout calced over 5 gigajoules, large building level

Mid C Class: Seiryu striked Byakko 100 times in a second calced between roughly Mach 6 and Mach 9. Hiei then blitzed him striking him 16 times in a second with precise sword slices calced between Mach 29 and Mach 39. 

Upper C Class: Suzaku and Yusuke's final clash destroys the dome building they were in, calced at around 26 Gigajoules (large building level) , which would be 13 each although Suzaku is likely more then 2.6 times Byakko's strength

Mid B Class: Yusuke's cuffed Spirit Gun into the sky was calced to over 3 megatons, consistent with Young Genaki being B Class and being able to destroy a "mountain." Yusuke's cuffed spirit gun rose into the sky at speeds somewhere between Mach 150 and Mach 430. 

Upper B Class: Yusuke's Final Dark Tournament Spirit Gun tore up kilometers of forest and water calced to over 45 megatons, which final form Toguro just managed to block barely.

Upper A Class: It is directly stated Upper A Classes can destroy countries. This is consistent with King Enma being stated to create a volcanic eruption and devastation on the Earth unlike any better

Low S Class: Sensui destroys Beheading Hill, a plateau in Demon World dwarfing structures that contain mountains, calced into the teraton range, with the casual shockwaves of his attacks. A more recent calc suggested that they may have reached Mach 5000 and low petatons in this fight.


Manga High-Ball:

Add to the above any feats you think are reasonable:

Lower C Class: Byakko's shout is implied to destroy things on a molecular level, which was calced to over 100 tons of tnt (Multi-City Block Level.)

Upper C Class: It is contextually implied that Suzaku and Yusuke's final clash was far faster and was thus far more energetic calced to hundreds of tons of tnt based on the fact that the brainwashed humans were unable to hurt Keiko despite being mid-attack (Multi-City Block Level.) Suzaku uses lightning based attacks including calling them from down on the sky yet Yusuke can react to them.

Low S Class: Sensui claimed that even a fraction of his power would put too much pressure on the planet, Genkai claimed she could not stop Yusuke from destroying the planet if he wanted, comparing the possibility to a kid destroying a toy. This has been argued as everything from continental to planetary.


Anime Feats:

Feel free to use anime versions if you prefer. All of the above is there as well as the following:

Lower C Class: Rando vaporized a pool of water in the anime calced to just over 1 kiloton (town level.)

Upper C Class: Yusuke has far more clear lightning timing against Suzaku in the anime. 

Mid B Class: The Dragon of the Darkness Flame in the anime caused massive damage to the island the DT was on, calced as hundreds of gigatons (high island level). Hiei later uses this on unarmored Bui who catches it, and absorbs it himself. 

Low S Class: Yusuke's Spirit Gun during his fight with Sensui in the anime destroys a demon world plateau dwarfing a 2 kilometer portal, calced into the exaton range, which would be planetoid level.

Upper S Class: The final attack of Yusuke in the anime has been calced by a few sources to reach planetary levels of energy and relativistic speed. 


A few other mild notes off the top of my head:


Skill:

In the anime Kibano claimed to be the master of every martial art, a Low A Level (superhuman) skill feat. While not everyone who's stronger then Kibano would be as skilled as him, it's pretty clear contexually that Kibano isn't some high mark of skill, particularly considering Yusuke during Genkai's Tournament seemed relative or superior to him in skill.

Even in the manga the characters are probably superhuman in skill, as the verse is filled with demon fighters, demons often having ages centuries old and constantly fighting, consistent with several displays of unrealistically impossible fighting ability such as Kurama being able to proficiently his rose whip with his hair.


Astral Combat:

Combat in Yu Yu Hakusho is on the astral plane. This doesn't come up often in the series since basically everyone in the series is spiritually aware but demons and spirits are invisible to human eyes (also seem to be impercetible to their other senses) and intangible with Toguro and Hiei destroying evil ghosts with their auras and Yusuke being implied to be able to erase a soul.
