DISCUSSION Just amazing to think about
These two being so close in ability level, imagine if they fought in a Turf War together or against each other (only if John got transferred to a school that could participate in one with Wellston).

There was this one fic where when they both used to be 7.0 when John transferred to Wellston, John could infact reliably copy and amp time manipulation . Then he pulled on Sera what she did to her mom and froze her in stopped time .
I'm pretty sure even in canon John is the fastest growing person we've ever seen

u/Thin-Break-7183 Ability: Aura Master Lvl: 10 Jul 25 '25
Oh yea John most definitely is the fastest person we ever seen grow in verse. Not just because of his high potential but because bro literally would push himself just to see how strong he could get. Even though he did messed up stuff that’s honestly the happiest we ever seen John and when he is hanging with Sera.

Bro grew from 7,0 to 7.5 in a few weeks by being angry 24x7 . Then he grew to 7.6 when he didn't have an ability . The Jane genes serving him extra well

He didn’t grow to 7.5 after the arlo event. It was just age progression over those two years of abstinence.

u/Dry_Emergency_5512 Wishing UnO was mainstream Jul 25 '25
I don't think his ability would progress if he didn't train for more than an year since he was expelled

Where? And who? If you’re thinking about his NB level, it’s just that he hasn’t gotten it recorded since then.

Name of the fic? 😀

u/Dry_Emergency_5512 Wishing UnO was mainstream Jul 25 '25
I don't really remember rn, it was an unfinished time travel fic where John never hid his ability and caused many butterfly effects across Wellston and in people's personalities. John copied and froze Sera when she demanded the cake from him in the cafeteria .

u/friendlyfriends123 Jul 25 '25
It might have been this fic—I'll be your hero, no one's gonna hurt you again! by TheDarkLord7468—since ch2 has a scene with Sera getting frozen by John during their cake scuffle.
u/HiddenGrimoireUser u/KillerDiamonds — in case you guys wanted to check the fic out ^^

Yup it's this one ! Man this was such a fun AU while it lasted

u/Thin-Break-7183 Ability: Aura Master Lvl: 10 Jul 25 '25
I don’t remember and I’m not even sure if it is the right one. I haven’t read Uno fan fics since I was in high school

u/C1nders-Two Dropkicking Val into Hell Jul 26 '25
Considering John grew an entire point in just a few weeks, I’d say so. It doesn’t sound very impressive, but power levels are exponential. 7.5 to 7.6 would look completely insane to a mid-tier.
5
u/Dry_Emergency_5512 Wishing UnO was mainstream Jul 26 '25
It's not even a week really .
The 7.5 to 7.6 upgrade was the strength enhancement that he couldn't do at Rowden when he got disabled but the next time he used his ability when Sera was nearly assassinated he could do it . So by all accounts his ability evolved while it was disabled

Nah his mom has to be did you see the pile of bodies she was standing on I love her so much

u/Dry_Emergency_5512 Wishing UnO was mainstream Jul 25 '25
Nah but she had much more time than John and most likely wasn't a late bloomer so I still think it's John . But then again it's her genes he has so she must be a different kind of monster

Man that person wanked John. At most he would’ve tied her.

u/Dry_Emergency_5512 Wishing UnO was mainstream Jul 25 '25
I mean if both have same levels and John just has flat out better Time manipulation he could win easily if not for Sera's experience

u/New_Weird8988 Jarlo👨👨👦👦 is my body but Sera is my soul🇰🇵😍 Jul 26 '25
If he could have a better TM, then he wouldn’t have an equal level. It’s really not hard to deduce.
1
u/Dry_Emergency_5512 Wishing UnO was mainstream Jul 26 '25
John has better tm not because he's higher level but because he is equal to Sera in base and can then amplify to be better
2
u/New_Weird8988 Jarlo👨👨👦👦 is my body but Sera is my soul🇰🇵😍 Jul 27 '25
Bro what😭 he can’t amp past his level. Once again, if he could amplify to a 7.2 as a 7.0, he would be a 7.2. Not a 7. The level is RIGHT in front of you
1
u/Thin-Break-7183 Ability: Aura Master Lvl: 10 Jul 27 '25
John wouldn’t be able to amp Sera’s 8.0 tm but he would be able to match her in skill because he is able to adapt to any fighting situation even against those stronger than him so I agree with you on that.

u/Business_Scratch_791 Team John Jul 25 '25
Honestly reading back this moment, sera's facial expressions looked as if she was jealous. She couldn't believe john would be this powerful at all
65
u/Shadow_lII Jul 25 '25
And also worth noting that Seraphina did extensive professional training starting since childhood whereas John basically just trained himself to level 7.0 within like what? A year or two? Sure he had help from Claire but considering how little resources he had, Its extremely impressive he was able to grow that fast.

u/Diabolic_Bug_Man Jul 26 '25
John had a (human) punching bag, video game loading screen "hints", and the power of violence
Plenty of resources if you ask me
27
u/Thin-Break-7183 Ability: Aura Master Lvl: 10 Jul 25 '25
I don’t blame her really. John being that much of a powerhouse similar to her but choosing to be weak since she was still depowered at the time she was definitely salty. I understand why he choose to be but Sera was just about to learn for herself

Chapter 171, before the sad yelling fight John has with Sera

If you think Sera is supposed to be stronger (even by the end), don’t ever forget that
he stopped after 7.0 and couldn’t practice for a LONG TIME.
he practiced all on his own, without anyone that could give him guidance on his powers. Now he is with his uncle who has a better version of his powers.
Meanwhile, Sera…
always kept practicing her craft and went to her limit, that being an 8.0.
had her mom and her sister to practice with, two very very high rated people.

u/Thin-Break-7183 Ability: Aura Master Lvl: 10 Jul 26 '25
I don’t think that Sera is supposed to be stronger than John (especially at the end I don’t even know when i mentioned the end of the series😭)
I know John stopped training for two years and practiced on his own when? If you mean while at Wellston he wasn’t really practicing his ability he was just fighting everyone who harmed him or Sera. I agree having Cameron in his corner will help him evolve from a Aura Manipulation
I doubt Sera’s limit is 8.0 but if it is then that’s not bad

u/Imaginary-Hand2314 Jul 29 '25
I wonder if John will be able to copy abilities he can’t see if he continue to practice aura manipulation
2
u/Demonking6444 Jul 25 '25
This is a really weird comparison though because sera at level 7 time manipulation could easily overpower a level 7 John who does not even have basic self enhancement yet without sampling from other powers.
Like sera could just time freeze John and knock him out with a single punch like she did when she first bullied him in the cafeteria scene, and he wouldn't even have a chance to observe and copy her ability.
And yet John would have at the time been ranked the same as Sera? even a 6.3 Arlo would have put up more of a fight against level 7 Seraphina.
I do believe though that once John completely masters Channel Manipulation like his uncle and Mother then he can beat her.

John will have abilities copied before hand since he is fighting in a Turf War or he’ll copy the abilities of those on his team so he won’t need to observe and copy her and she wouldn’t be able to easily knock him out with a single punch like in the cafeteria where he didn’t use his ability at all.
John will be ranked the same rank as Sera because like Sera no one is as strong to beat them.

I know if John ended up in Wellston during his second year Rei would have 100% warmed up to him and made him his successor. Then the next year royals would all be god tier John, Sera and Arlo.
