I got some time to kill, might as well just look at MrSheldon's last current post on the Bolo nonsense:
Actually yes, it was confirmed 100%:
onelastforum.com
I'm not sure why MrSheldon is picking Fan-Translations that are actually incorrect over the official localization... oh wait, it's because it's the same shit you hear many times:
"The Official Localization is trash, how do I know? I don't know, someone else said it so I will say it too". When the translation is actually on the same path as the official localization. There is no "Near-Lightspeed", it's literally just luminal or superluminal speeds... which would be Lightspeed or FTL.





You can tell that MrSheldon's brain has been cooked thoroughly because there is no way in hell you can interpret Near-Lightspeed into being either subsonic or in the Mach range... without fully believing that it must mean going Faster Than Sound is fucking worthless because it's just a unit of measurement.
Also:
I like how SB members continue to be SB members when it's explicitly stated that Albion hasn't hit it's top speed yet and they still go with Mach 2 being it's absolute top speed
(I'm also bringing this up because it never ceases to amaze me how much they use this to shit on MelusineAlbion! and that Servants are just barely in the Supersonic Range... despite Faerie Britain being the same size as the actual Britain... which would be 80,000+ SQ MI... and it takes a day or two to get anywhere there for the main party... but far, FAR less time for Melusine to get to any destination around FB... none of this makes sense at Mach 2 and it's insane that people still use it despite how nonsensical it is)
Because that's how you debate in Spacebattles! You ignore the official localization because it's wrong... until there's something you can downplay it from and then just pretend it's the same in the translation too because.
Wha?
One that's wrong by Musashi's own take. Secondly, Dioscuri's Profile ALSO disagrees with that take so I don't understand how their arrogance is suddenly wrong in this case(So does that mean every arrogant character must be overestimating their own abilities... or they are arrogant because they know precisely how strong they are compared to others? I guess Luca Blight was full of hot ass the entire time then, everyone was just fucking around entertaining him then).
Only by SB land, love. Gilgamesh would destroy it in every appearance he's done in the franchise...
Seriously, the Bolo is an overrated piece of trash.
100% confirmed? Hardly.

Alright finally time to get off this hiatus for good, Anastasia's Profile anyone? Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova The day before he was murdered, Alexei revealed to his older sister, Anastasia, of a secret handed down the Tsars. It is said that a “mysterious thing” is connected to the Tsars...

Take note that they never actually confirm 100% whether or not the Dioscuri are able to move at lightspeed, nor are the Dioscuri ever given a concrete speed like Kingu (500 km/h) in Babylonia or Albion (Mach 2) in Avalon le Fae.

Well, there are 2 instances where they do outright state lightspeed, but both were spoken by the Dioscuri themselves who are incredibly arrogant and prone to tooting their own horns even when proven to be wrong.

Then he allows all of them, and we can decide an outcome for each respective Gil, using only their feats within their own works without scaling to any other works, in which case:
F/SN: Curbstomped by Bolo.
F/SF: Curbstomped by Bolo.
F/CCC: Curbstomps Bolo.
Etc etc.
