Anakaris Flies Pyramid All Nippon Airways[]
Anakaris lifted some pyramid-shaped aircrafts up high in the sky to keep his nationals from being polluted by the Earth.
Now... the problem appears: What has he actually done here? By just the pictures Ana did not actually lifted the whole tectonic plate of Egypt up in the sky.
I shall made several assumptions about what he had actually done.
Anakaris Flies Pyramid All Nippon Airways... with just ten double-down pyramids[]
Let me set the lowest end first: that Ana just lifted 10 pyramids (as seen here).
Our most notable pyramid, the Great Pyramid of Giza, is estimated to weigh approximately 6 million tonnes and stands 138.8 m with a base length of 230.34 m by now.
The aircraft is made up of two pyramids, so the mass of one aircraft = 12 million tonnes or 12,000,000,000 kg. Ten of such is 120,000,000,000 kg (Class G) - This will be the lifting strength of Anakaris.
Earth's gravity is 9.80665 yada yada.
Commercial aircraft typically fly between 31,000 and 38,000 feet — about 5.9 to 7.2 miles — high and usually reach their cruising altitudes in the first 10 minutes of a flight, according to Beckman. Assume Anakaris did lift the aircrafts that high, he did lift them at 9448.8 m to 11582.4 m.
Since he lifted 10 of such at once in one go, potential energy generated...
(Low end PE 1) = 9.80665 x 9448.8 x 12000000000 x 10
= 1.11193E+16 J
= 2657583.399 tons of TNT (Small City)
(Low end PE 2) = 9.80665 x 11582.4 x 12000000000 x 10
= 1.36301E+16 J
= 3257682.876 tons of TNT (Small City)
By mgh = 0.5 m v^2, we can also find the launch speed...
(Low end speed 1) = (9.80665 x 9448.8 x 2)^0.5
= 430.4905911 m/s
= Mach 1.25507461 (Supersonic)
(Low end speed 2) = (9.80665 x 11582.4 x 2)^0.5
= 476.6225823 m/s
= Mach 1.389570211 (Supersonic)
Now you may be thinking: Anakaris could just teleport the people up in the sky without physically slinging them up.
Also, how to ensure the pyramid will not even... em... fall down?
... what about Anakaris actually slung the pyramids into low Earth orbit and let the centrifugal/centripetal force pairs do the job? This has kept lots of Earth observation and spying satellites above Earth orbit for decades so I shall try it out myself.
This gives me two more cases to work with.
(Low end PE 3) = 9.80665 x 200000 x 12000000000 x 10
= 2.3536E+17 J
= 56252294.46 tons of TNT (City+)
(Low end PE 4) = 9.80665 x 1500000 x 12000000000 x 10
= 1.7652E+18 J
= 421892208.4 tons of TNT (Mountain)
By mgh = 0.5 m v^2, we can also find the launch speed...
(Low end vertical speed 3) = (9.80665 x 200000 x 2)^0.5 = 1980.570625 m/s
(Low end perpendicular orbital speed 3) = 7790 m/s
(Low end launch speed 3) = (1980.570625^2 + 7790^2)^0.5
= 8037.833041 m/s
= Mach 23.43391557 (Hypersonic+)
(Low end vertical speed 4) = (9.80665 x 1500000 x 2)^0.5 = 5424.01604 m/s
(Low end perpendicular orbital speed 4) = 7120 m/s
(Low end launch speed 4) = (1980.570625^2 + 7120^2)^0.5
= 8950.661987 m/s
= Mach 26.09522445 (High Hypersonic)
Launching KE...
(Low end launch KE Case 3) = 0.5 x 12000000000 x 10 x 8037.833041^2
= 3.87641E+18 J
= 926,483,174 ton TNT (Mountain+)
(Low end launch KE Case 4) = 0.5 x 12000000000 x 10 x 8950.661987^2
= 4.80686E+18 J
= 1,148,867,352 ton TNT (Large Mountain)
Anakaris Flies Pyramid All Nippon Airways... with all Egyptians[]
Assume he lifts sufficient aircrafts that contain all Egyptians like they sit inside an actual ANA Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
An earlier Boeing 787-8 model has a length of 56.72 m, a fuselage of 5.49 m (making an oval area of 244.5673332 m^2) which is designed to normally fit 234 passengers.
In return, a Giza pyramid has a base length of 230.34 m & a base area of 53056.5156 m^2. This makes the aircraft comparable to a Giza able to host roughly 50764 persons just by comparing the "base area". Then there are 100075480 people in Egypt, this will take 1972 such aircrafts to carry all the passengers.
Mass of all the aircrafts required to take the whole Egypt population = 12000000000 x 1972 = 2.3664E+13 kg (Class T)
(Mid end PE case 1) = 9.80665 x 9448.8 x 2.3664E+13
= 2.19273E+18 J
= 524075446.3 tons of TNT (Mountain)
(Mid end PE case 2) = 9.80665 x 11582.4 x 2.3664E+13
= 2.68786E+18 J
= 642415063.2 tons of TNT (Mountain+)
(Mid end launch KE Case 3) = 0.5 x 2.3664E+13 x 8037.833041^2
= 7.64427E+20 J
= 1.82702E+11 ton TNT (Large Island)
(Mid end launch KE Case 4) = 0.5 x 2.3664E+13 x 8950.661987^2
= 9.47913E+20 J
= 2.26557E+11 ton TNT (Large Island)
Anakaris Flies Pyramid All Nippon Airways... with the whole Egypt[]
Assume he lifts sufficient aircrafts that occupy the whole area of Egypt.
The whole area of Egypt spans over 1,010,408 km^2 or =1,010,408,000,000 m^2.
To compare, one Giza pyramid span just over 53056.5156 m^2. So that means Anakaris has to make about 19,043,995 of such aircrafts to cover all the area of Egypt.
Mass lifted = 2.28528E+17 kg (Class P)
PE generated...
(High end PE case 1) = 9.80665 x 9448.8 x 2.28528E+17
= 2.11756E+22 J
= 5.0611E+12 tons of TNT (Small Country+)
(High end PE case 2) = 9.80665 x 11582.4 x 2.28528E+17
= 2.59572E+22 J
= 6.20393E+12 tons of TNT (Small Country+)
(High end launch KE Case 3) = 0.5 x 2.28528E+17 x 8037.833041^2
= 7.38222E+24 J
= 1.76439E+15 ton TNT (Continent)
(High end launch KE Case 4) = 0.5 x 2.28528E+17 x 8950.661987^2
= 9.15418E+24 J
= 2.1879E+15 ton TNT (Continent)
Anakaris Flies Pyramid All Nippon Airways... My pick[]
The most reasonable and conservative pick for me would be the Low end launch KE Case 4), i.e. 4.80686E+18 J or 1,148,867,352 ton TNT (Large Mountain). I am fine with Mid end launch KE Case 4 too, i.e. 9.47913E+20 J or 2.26557E+11 ton TNT (Large Island)
FYI the current rating of Country level comes from a slight round up from a "High end PE case 2" of 2.59572E+22 J or 6.20393E+12 tons of TNT (Small Country+). Which some may have a problem with.

There’s more pyramids near the end but we don’t see them pulled down alongside the other 3, so they could’ve been done at a different time or not all at once. Either way, it’s still getting small town-borderline town, so meh.
Anakaris Flies Pyramid All Nippon Airways... Phantom Falcon's pick with fix by Jasonsith[]
(Jasonsith's additional notes to the fix:)
Let us be generous and say Ana did move 10 of the aircraft where each aircraft is twice the size of Giza Pyramid.
Total mass to move will be 6000000000 * 2 * 10 = 1.2E+11 kg (Class G)
KE = 0.5 * 1.2E+11 kg * (49.92805755 m/s)^2 = 1.49569E+14 J = 35747.7667 tons of TNT (Town)
Still weh meh from Country level.
Anakaris Flies Pyramid All Nippon Airways... Ultraguy's pick[]
Anakaris Flies Pyramid All Nippon Airways... Ultraguy's pick - Bare Minimum Weight & PE[]
There are between 118 & 138 known Egyptian Pyramids to have existed.
The heaviest is 5,216,308,000 kg, but obviously not all of them are this heavy. It seems fairest to take the total volumes from this list, and average them out. Note that the list is incomplete, but it's the best we could find. If anyone has a more complete list with the volumes, or a different idea in mind, we’re all ears.
Total cubic volume from the list (meters): 11626896 m^3
Divide that by 28 (the number of pyramids with listed volumes)
Average Cubic Volume: 415246.2857142857 m^3
1 cubic meter of limestone is 2,711 kg
Mass of one hypothetical pyramid = 415246.2857142857 * 2711 = 1,125,732,680.571429 kg (Class G)
Then we multiply that by the number of known pyramids in Egypt.
1125732680.571429 * 138 = 155,351,109,918.857202 kg
Collective Pyramid Weight: 155,351,109,918.857202 kg (Class G)
The population of Egypt during 3000 B.C.E is estimated to be 1 to 1.5 million people. In Darkstalkers lore, Anakaris ruled in the century of 2600 B.C.E, where Egypt became more prosperous (and thus more populated), so this should, again, be a good low-end.
The average height of Egyptian citizens was 157.5cm for women and 167.9cm for men. There are no statistics on their weight, but I'll take the average of those (162.7 cm), and get the average weight of someone that height.
According to here, a 'normal' B.M.I for someone who is 162.7 cm would be about 60 kg.
Mass of aggregate ancient Egypt population = 1,000,000 * 60 = 60,000,000 kg (Class M)
Finally, we’re going to get the weight of the other buildings. We unfortunately can’t count every building in ancient Egypt at the time. It was recommended we take the aforementioned population, divide it by 4 (assuming the average home has 4 people in it), and use the collective weight of those residential buildings. Granted, some peasant/lower class residents lived in considerably smaller housing.
However, this will still be excluding temples, the much larger elite houses, and famous structures like the Alexandria Library. Not to mention the numerous shops, and other non-residential structures that Egypt would have had at the time. So this will still be low-balling it considerably.
Common Ancient Egyptian houses were made from clay bricks. The density of clay bricks is 2403 kg/m³.
A typical working class house was composed of 4 rudimentary rooms. They would sometimes have 2 floors, but I’ll be sticking to one to keep things simple. A story of a building is about 4.3 meters. I can’t find too many sources on the exact measurements of most houses, so I’ll compare that height to the width of the entrance in this 3D recreation.
Using the diagram and pictures in the same slide show, I’ll get the size of the structure. These houses were cube-shaped, so the volume of a simple cube will be fine.

Lastly, to get the height of the tallest structure and solving for Potential Energy. The Pyramid of Giza is about 139 meters tall. Anakaris’ should be comparable, if not much larger.

Anakaris Flies Pyramid All Nippon Airways... Ultraguy's pick - Scaled to the size of Anakaris’ Labor Force[]
Page 141 of the Darkstalkers Graphic File has a very important piece of info.
"B.C 2634: Anakaris' pyramid completed after 16 years with the efforts of 60,000,000 laborers"
Basically, Anakaris’ country should have a population way larger than 1 to 1.5 million. He used the effort of 60 million laborers for just his one pyramid. So, we can redo the values factoring this in. This will still be a massive lowball since, again, it’s only factoring in the 60,000,000 laborers, rather than the entire population.
The collective pyramid weight remains the same.
Collective Pyramid Weight: 155,351,109,918.857202 kg
Population Weight: 3,600,000,000 kg
Residential Homes Weight
614.374 * 20,000,000 = 12,287,480,000

Anakaris Flies Pyramid All Nippon Airways... Ultraguy's pick - Scaled to the full population of Anakaris’ country[]
Once again using the 60,000,000 laborers statement, but this time to upscale the full population of Anakaris’ country.
https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/article/who-built-the-pyramids/
It's estimated anywhere between 20,000 and 30,000 laborers in real life ancient Egypt were used to construct the pyramids. And Egypt's own population at the time is estimated to be between 1 million and 1.5 million. So, essentially the laborers who built the pyramids composed roughly 2% of the population at the time.
Meaning the 60,000,000 laborers compose about 2% of Anakaris' kingdom, and the real population would be around 50x that (3,000,000,000).
It might seem a bit absurd, but it's pretty well-established Anakaris' Egypt was incredibly prosperous. Basically an ancient super civilization. So it's not unbelievable that it would have a population comparable to one of our larger modern countries. Because it was incredibly prosperous at the time, it also wouldn't make sense for the bulk of its population to consist of low-class laborers. There logically would be a good portion of the population doing other things.
Collective Pyramid Weight: 155,351,109,918.857202 kg
Population Weight:
3,000,000,000 * 60 = 180,000,000,000 kg
Residential Homes Weight
614.374 * 750,000,000 = 460,780,500,000
460,780,500,000 * 2403 = 1,107,255,541,500,000 kg
Total Weight: 1,107,871,673,109,918.857 kg (Class E)

Q-Bee descends a bee hive craft[]
Q-Bee descends a bee hive craft - Jasonsith's pick[]
Darkstalkers 3 - Q-Bee descended a large bee hive craft on invading the demon world.
| Calculation |
|---|
 |
First, some real life statistics: a real life queen bee can rest up to 39 mm long.
Official standing height of Q-Bee, which other adult soul bees should scale from, is 1.25 m.
One soul bee is seen at the attached picture to be 13.92838828 px.
Diameter of the bee hive craft = 443 px or 39.75693303 m
Displacement of hive from 28.956 s to 31.903 s = 124 px = 11.12835146 m
Speed = 11.12835146 m / 2.947 s = 3.776162694 m/s (Below average human...)
The impressive part comes from the hive craft, which is presumably held by the power of Q-Bee.
As for size of the hive craft (which shapes like a bee skep)...
A real life bee skep is about 16 inches (0.41 m) in diameter and 14 inches (0.35 m) in height. A ellipsoid volume for that will be 4/3 * pi * 0.35 * (0.41/2)^2 / 2 = 0.030805934 m^3
It can weigh up to 25 lbs or 11.33980925 kg, making a density of 368.1047055 kg/m^3.
So, assuming the bee hive craft has the same density of a real bee skep but much larger,
Volume of bee hive craft = 0.030805934*(39.75693303/0.41)^3 = 28088.03986 m^3
Mass of bee hive craft calculated = 28088.03986 m^3 * 368.1047055 kg/m^3 = 10339339.64 kg (Class M)
Kinetic energy of moving bee hive craft = 0.5 * 10339339.64 kg * (3.776162694 m/s)^2 = 73716414.08 J = 0.017618646 ton TNT (Small Building)
Q-Bee descends a bee hive craft - Jasonsith's wanked pick[]
Using the reference point from the castle instead.
Assume the height of the castle resembles the height of the keep at Dover Castle in England which is 24 m.
In the picture, the castle height = 112 px = 24 m
The bee hive craft's diameter now becomes 443 px or (443/112*24)m = 94.92857143 m
Displacement of hive from 28.956 s to 31.903 s = 124 px = 26.57142857 m
Speed = 26.57142857 m / 2.947 s = 9.016433177 m/s (Athletic human...)
Volume of bee hive craft = 0.030805934*(94.92857143/0.41)^3 = 140748901.8 m^3
Mass of bee hive craft calculated = 140748901.8 m^3 * 368.1047055 kg/m^3 = 51,810,333,043.94 kg (Class T)
It IS way higher than "over 30 million metric tonnes" as stated in Death Battle)
Kinetic energy of moving bee hive craft = 0.5 * 51,810,333,043.94 kg * (9.016433177 m/s)^2 = 2.10599E+12 J = 503.3432503 ton TNT (Multi City Block)
Huitzil investigates[]
Ultraguy's words:
In the Darkstalkers Graphic File, it states that Pyron flies from Hellstorm to Earth at light speed for 200 million years. Now we don't have an exact distance for Hellstorm, but this was Pyron's casual cruising speed.
At a mid-end, we can say that Hellstorm is 200 million light years away from Earth. It could be a lot closer, could be a lot further. Hellstorm is never depicted to be in the same star system as Earth either way.
Pyron creates Huitzils using resources he collected from Hellstorm and sends them out across the universe to find planets he can later consume after finding Earth.
Huitzil investigates - Jasonsith's pick[]
First, distance from Hellstorm to Earth at light speed for 200 million years = 200000000 * 299792458 * 365.24 * 24 * 60 * 60 = 1.89209E+24 m
The longest investigation in FBI history has been the D.B. Cooper case which has baffled the agency for 45 years. Translating into seconds is... 1420053120 sec
Serious travel speed of an investigating Huitzil unit = 1.89209E+24 / 1420053120 = 1.33241E+15 m/s = 4444444.444 c (Massively FTL+)
This is a lowball.
Pyron wears the Earth as jewels[]
This - Pyron Ending at Night Warriors: Darkstalkers' Revenge.
An MIT Touch Lab study of Human Fingertips to investigate the Mechanics of Tactile Sense found that the average width of the index finger is 1.6 to 2 cm (16 - 20 mm) for most adults. This gives an average index finger width of 1.8 cm or 0.018 m. While an average human height is around 1.684 m.
By inverse square law by scaling up from an average human...
As our site says the average "average human" here stands 1.684 m, weighs 62 kg, runs at (5+7.7)/2 = 6.35 m/s, dead lifts an object at (50+80)/2 = 65 kg, and has a striking strength of (100+40)/2 = 70 J
Height = 888711176.6 m (Large Size type 5) (Height2 = Height1 * (Fingerdiameter2/Fingerdiameter1))
Weight = 9.11271E+27 kg (Weight2 = Weight1 * (Height2/Height1)^3)
Travel speed = 3351137750 m/s = 11.17819232 c (FTL+) (Speed2 = Speed1 * (Height2/Height1))
Note: we have already established above an exact Speed of Light is his casual cruising speed so 11.17819232 c can as well be his serious travel speed and 4444444.444 c (Massively FTL+) is his combat speed and reactions.
Lifting strength = 5.04182E+36 kg (Multi-Stellar) (LS2 = LS1 * (Height2/Height1)^4)
Striking Strength (standing) = 2.86544E+45 J = 28.65436668 FOE (Solar System level) (Striking Strength 2 = Striking Strength 1 * (Height2/Height1)^5)
Pyron wears the Earth as jewels - Extension[]
In fact, it is stated that he will consume other planets and eventually become the center of the universe, so Universe level or even High Universal level may be appropriate for his eventually approaching tier - this applies on his true unmoored form.
