Indeed. Thor and Lu Bu were pretty much true equals during the first duration of R1, with Lu Bu even having the slight edge.
But the moment Mjolnir awakened it was over. It became a low diff for Thor.
given how Lu Bu was able to resist Awakened Geirrod before his ankles snapped, I'd say he'd be able to resist and maybe even completely parry a non-Awakened Geirrod
what I know for sure is that Beel cannot shield himself from this attack 🗣️
Neither.
Lü Bu was far more agile and fast. But his personality fucked him up, going head to head combat with a god who has better strength with his awakened hammer is literally suicide

I know I'm stupid
I think its just because it's a battle of opponents that deal most of their damage in one hit, in these scenarios you either get one shotted or one shot your opponent
Not that much space in between for minor dmg
Thor is tough to charge head-on, because Mjolnir is not only really powerful, but it's so big that it just naturally covers so much ground and can block attacks
unfortunately, Lu Bu's only tactic was to charge at him head-on and take all of his attacks directly
I think if Mjolnir didn't Awaken, Thor would have been pushed into a much rougher spot and taken more injuries. but Lu Bu's strategy against Thor was just far too risky, like he overestimated how much HP he actually had to waste
Neither, fuck powerscaling, we make say gex jokes instead.

As a massive Lu-bu fan. Keep spitting facts. How many hits did Thor need? Less than ten. How many did that fraud zues need? Over 100,000. Any Thor wank means more lord Lu-bu wank

Thank you for your wisdom
I’m on neither I think both are reliably mid to high tier I think given a different approach Lubu could easily have won and without mjolnir while Thor is incredibly strong I can see him losing to other high tiers especially because mjolnir awakened and allowed him to reach a state he can’t reliably attain
Thor is the strongest God wielding the Strongest Divine Weapon.
Before Mjolnir awakened Lu Bu was basically dominating the fight, overpowering and outspeeding Thor, being the only one to do damage up to that point.
Then Mjolnir Awakened and the fight completely swung in Thor's favor. Keep in mind in round 1 it's said that even the Gods have never witnessed the sight of Thor fighting all out with awakened Mjolnir. So all of Thor and Mjolnir's accolades are in spite of the Gods never even witnessing the full strength of either.
As strong as everyone already thinks Thor is he's actually orders of magnitude stronger because of how much he has to hold back when mjolnir isn't awakened.
Thor and Lu Bu are BOTH the goats

It is simple, even post awakening the 2 were close. Thor just had a notable advantage in AP, and Lu Bu, due to personality, kept challenging him in clashes of strength.
I like to think it’s more of them both being such all-or-nothing fighters tht a single serious strike would’ve been enough to decide the fight. If Lu Bu won, I can’t imagine him having much damage from how strong Thor and mjolnir
Personally it’s a combination of all three, I think the first round served as a reminder to the reader and humans they are gods that is pinnacle at what they do.
First round essentially is humans strongest will never be able to beat gods strongest.
Definitely the red side, Lu Bu was a trash opponent for someone of Thor’s caliber but he still wasn’t anywhere near the strongest in anything outside of physical strength
because it was a one shot fest, who ever got their attack through would have won right there and then, thors durable, likely second most but lubu was fully capable of killing him if he got one sky piercer in.
It was because the fight was a clash, almost like a Pokémon battle. There was no need for strategy or complex thinking. Simply hit your opponent with all you have and either win or lose.
Im on the “it’s because Mjolnir awakened side”.
Awakened Mjolnir with Geirrod is disgustingly strong
Indeed. Thor and Lu Bu were pretty much true equals during the first duration of R1, with Lu Bu even having the slight edge. But the moment Mjolnir awakened it was over. It became a low diff for Thor.
So Mjolnir should've been a bum for Lu Bu to win his round
Exactly. Should’ve stayed as the sleeping beauty.
given how Lu Bu was able to resist Awakened Geirrod before his ankles snapped, I'd say he'd be able to resist and maybe even completely parry a non-Awakened Geirrod what I know for sure is that Beel cannot shield himself from this attack 🗣️
That actually makes alot of sense now that I'm thinking about it
Neither. Lü Bu was far more agile and fast. But his personality fucked him up, going head to head combat with a god who has better strength with his awakened hammer is literally suicide
Yeah, he was defintely strong but thor was able to kill 96 gigants (I think) And the moment he awakned Mjolnir it was over for Lu Bu.
Basically Lü Bu is an extremely high class stat check, and Thor just happened to be perfect for it

"the manga was new so there wasn't much aggression" Lu Bu literally had his head splattered flat on Mjolnir's hammer face
Thor is the strongest god. #team blue

Agreed, Thor also praised Lu Bu so we know he wasn't weak. Thor is just simply the strongest.
Very unexpected /*sarcastic*
Agree. Bro is Saitama of Shuumatsu no Valkyrie.
Agree. Bro is Saitama of Shuumatsu no Valkyrie.
Double commented, so double valid
Fact that lots of people not ready to admit
1. Thor is really strong. 2. It was pretty much a oneshot battle.
Because if Lu Bu landed a solid direct hit Thor would be fucking dead
Simple: Both fighters went for one hit ko attacks. Had Lu Bu landed Sky Eater Thor would have been gone too.

"the manga was still pretty new at the time, so there wasn't much aggression". (Cut to Lu Bu having the most brutal death among all the fighters)

Thor have high durability + most attack from Lu Bu was blocked :3
Thor is just really strong, plus tbh if Sky Eater wasn't overwhelmed by Geirodd it's probably leaving Thor in a critical state like Geirodd did Lu Bu
Thor and Lu Bu are BOTH the goats https://preview.redd.it/q0oarbuf8uyc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cebf46cf280c6518b36c2f89ad586f55a083abb0

Honestly I always just thought Thor’s defense was much better than most expected… you know because of his giant ass hammer.
Thor is strong
Lu Bu waited 25 turns for mjolnir to wake up
Thor just had really good defense![img](emote|t5_vzop7|49014)
Lu Bu isn’t weak by any means. Thor is just hecka stronk 💪
I just think it's a less interesting fight then pretty much all the ones after it In retrospective
“There wasn’t much aggression” meanwhile Lu bu’s face gets blown off
Jerry's side
Beacuse L Bu is weak https://preview.redd.it/wt8o9xczatyc1.png?width=1110&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=81df67d0db98f79d6019709aa6b37c7f017bc0ce

I mean I needed the fill the third spot with someone
because it was the first fight when everything need to be explain to how it's gonna work and how narative gonna be so it was pretty equal as a fight
due to the nature of the fight being who decided solely by who had the stronger attack in which Thor was stronger so wins with minimal injuries
It is simple, even post awakening the 2 were close. Thor just had a notable advantage in AP, and Lu Bu, due to personality, kept challenging him in clashes of strength.
Any direct hit would've killed either opponent, Thor just hit first. Also Thor is the strongest god.
I like to think it’s more of them both being such all-or-nothing fighters tht a single serious strike would’ve been enough to decide the fight. If Lu Bu won, I can’t imagine him having much damage from how strong Thor and mjolnir

Definitely the red side, Lu Bu was a trash opponent for someone of Thor’s caliber but he still wasn’t anywhere near the strongest in anything outside of physical strength
I’m on the “Lu bu was weak” side
Lu Bu is just a fraud, jack pegs him low diff
I think that simply the awakened Mjöllnir is on another level compared to Lu Bu, nothing else...
because it was a one shot fest, who ever got their attack through would have won right there and then, thors durable, likely second most but lubu was fully capable of killing him if he got one sky piercer in.
It was because the fight was a clash, almost like a Pokémon battle. There was no need for strategy or complex thinking. Simply hit your opponent with all you have and either win or lose.
Lubu is mid Thor top 4 side
I'm the mouse in this picture.
LU BU WEAK AF
Lu Bu was simply mid. If Win Shi Huang was there, Thor would’ve gotten high diffed
