[Dandadan] Is Momo's ESP the Strongest in the Universe? Comparing Psychokinesis Strength with 'One Punch Man' Tatsumaki & 'Mob Psycho'

Hello, manga blogger Osamu here!

Momo Ayase, the heroine of Dandadan. She’s a "gal" with a strong sense of duty, and above all, her fighting style using "Psychokinesis" is just incredibly cool!

But, a thought crossed my mind. "Wait, doesn't the manga world already have some ridiculously powerful psychics...?"

So today, I’m doing a forbidden comparison project! Tornado of Terror (Tatsumaki) from One Punch Man and Mob from Mob Psycho 100. Against these "Two Titans," how far can our Momo go!? I, Osamu, have thoroughly compared their "Psychokinesis Strength" based entirely on my own bias!

Entry No. 1: Momo Ayase (Dandadan)

Ability: ESP (Telekinesis) Feature: "Grabbing," "Crushing," and "Throwing" with invisible hands

First up is the challenger, Momo-chan. Her ability blossomed from her potential as a spirit medium (like her grandmother Seiko), allowing her to manipulate aura-like "invisible hands." In the story, she slams giant aliens into the ground and rips up telephone poles and signs to use as weapons, so her physical destructive power is quite high. Defensively, she can deploy barriers, making her style a balance of offense and defense. However, since prolonged use drains her brain (or aura?) and her range is limited to "manipulating herself and surrounding objects," for now, she is at the scale of "The Strongest Gal in Town."

Entry No. 2: Shigeo Kageyama, a.k.a. Mob (Mob Psycho 100)

Ability: General Psychic Powers Feature: Output becomes infinite with emotional explosions

Next is the strongest middle schooler, Mob-kun. Normally he is gentle, but when his emotional meter hits "100%," he releases enough energy to twist skyscrapers and blow away clouds. Furthermore, if he enters the unconscious "???%" state, he absorbs surrounding energy and causes disaster-level destruction. He can not only "destroy buildings" but also "instantly repair them." If Momo is "Heavy Machinery," Mob is a "Moving Natural Disaster."

Entry No. 3: Tornado of Terror / Tatsumaki (One Punch Man)

Ability: Psychokinesis Feature: Absolutely off-the-charts output, planetary-scale interference

Finally, the S-Class Rank 2 Hero, Tatsumaki. To be blunt, she is in a different dimension (lol). The scene in the Monster Association Arc where she "wrings out an entire city (Z-City) like a rag," or drags a massive underground base to the surface while maintaining a barrier... Summoning meteors (in the anime)... what she does is practically "God's Work." Her mental fortitude is also tough; her powers don't waver from minor damage.

[Conclusion] Ranking Results Announcement!

Here is Osamu's "Psychokinesis Strength" Ranking!

1st Place: Tornado of Terror / Tatsumaki (One Punch Man)

Reason: Her scale goes beyond "City Destruction" to "Tectonic Shift" levels. The digits of her output are just too different.

2nd Place: Shigeo Kageyama / Mob (Mob Psycho 100)

Reason: In "???%" mode, he might rival (or exceed?) Tatsumaki, but I put Tatsumaki on top this time because she can consistently output high power. Still, he is strong enough to end the world.

3rd Place: Momo Ayase (Dandadan)

Reason: Unfortunately, the top two were just too monstrous (lol). However! Momo's charm lies in her "Ingenuity and Guts." Her coolness comes from defeating superior opponents by coordinating with Okarun using her limited output. Her potential for growth is infinite!

What did you think? I hope Momo reaches a realm like the psychic sisters one day (though the Earth might break...).

What were your predictions? Let me know in the comments! (Osamu)
