Background
Statistics
Tier: 6-C, higher while in Acceleration Mode
Name: Joe Shimamura, Cyborg 009
Origin: Cyborg 009
Sex: Male
Age: 18
Classification: Cyborg, 00-Numbered Cyborg, Hero
Dimensionality: 3-D
Attack Potency: The character's attack power or destructive capacity (in bold; add any explanations using brackets, not in bold).
Durability: The amount of attack power the character can withstand before being overwhelmed (in bold).
Striking Strength: The attack power of the character's physical attacks/blows (in bold).
Lifting Strength: Class 100 (Can lift and swing around heavy metal robots much larger than him. Has comparable strength to Cyborg 005/Geronimo Jr., who can lift and toss tanks.)
Travel Speed: Hypersonic to Massively Hypersonic without the Accelerator (Shown to be even in speed, if not faster than Cyborg 002/Jet Link without the usage of his Accelerator. Jet Link can fly at Mach 5. Joe can move faster than the human eye can track.), FTL+ while in Acceleration Mode (Dodged reflected sunlight multiple times with ease. A literal blink of an eye lasted for around ten days in his perspective while in Acceleration Mode, where he once spent an entire month in the time it took for a gas explosion to go off.). Instantaneous with Teleportation. Extra-Temporal with the True Accelerator (Ran so fast he reversed time with his speed, and potentially could have traveled back to the time before he was a Cyborg. Traveled to the future to see the Emperor's fate.)
Combat Speed: Hypersonic to Massively Hypersonic without the Accelerator, FTL+ while in Acceleration Mode (Can fight and react to things with ease while in Acceleration Mode. While time may appear frozen for Joe, allowing him to act and move around normally, it in reality is him moving at incredibly high speeds and perceiving the world as frozen). Extra-Temporal with the True Accelerator (Fought the Emperor without much difficulty at unprecedented speeds while using the True Accelerator.)
Reaction Speed: Hypersonic to Massively Hypersonic without the Accelerator, FTL+ while in Acceleration Mode (The Accelerator "overclocks" Joe's reaction times and his brain's processing speeds, allowing him to react just as fast as he moves while in Acceleration Mode.). Extra-Temporal with the True Accelerator
Stamina: Limitless (Is a Cyborg and was designed to be able to keep fighting even after sustaining massive amounts of damage. Can use his Accelerator without any kind of time limit or exhaust.)
Range: Standard Melee range, higher with the Supergun
Intelligence: Self-explanatory (in bold)

The Supergun in the manga

The Supergun in the 1960s anime

The Supergun in the 1979 anime

The Supergun in the 2001 series, firing the Heat Ray
- Supergun: The Supergun is the primary weapon utilized by the Cyborg Soldiers, taken from Black Ghost. It is an incredibly advanced weapon with numerous settings for various combat situations.
- Usually, the main three settings are a powerful heat ray, an emitter of poisonous gas, and a normal gun function. However, it has also been known to act as a laser, needle cannon, fire tranquilizer darts, a stun beam, an energy magnum and a freezer ray.
- In addition to the other functions, the Supergun has a laser function. It is confirmed to be real due to the fact that it fires in straight lines, bounces off of reflective surfaces, and causes metal surfaces to heat up rather than explode.
- The Supergun is notably powerful, as shots from the Heat Ray function in particular have been able to achieve a variety of feats. Even single shots from the weapon have been known to wrecked planes, helicopters, futuristic UFOs, and even a statue that doubled as a rocket, and thus could survive atmospheric reentry.
- After being upgraded during Conclusion: GOD'S WAR, the Supergun became powerful enough to destroy "Gods" in a single strike. The "Gods" could summon tidal waves and create earthquakes across Tokyo.
- Usually, the main three settings are a powerful heat ray, an emitter of poisonous gas, and a normal gun function. However, it has also been known to act as a laser, needle cannon, fire tranquilizer darts, a stun beam, an energy magnum and a freezer ray.
Notable Techniques
- Acceleration Mode:
Other
Standard Tactics: Joe usually starts off his fights by switching into Acceleration Mode almost immediately and going for a Speed Blitz. If his sheer speed isn't enough to defeat his opponent, Joe combines his combat experience along with his Accelerator to find ways to outsmart his opponents or find and exploit weaknesses. He regularly employs the Supergun while fighting, in addition to utilizing his excellent hand-to-hand combat skills if necessary.
Weaknesses: Joe cannot hear anything while in Acceleration Mode unless it is through telepathy, due to the fact that he moves so much faster than sound. He cannot move any ordinary human while in Acceleration Mode, as the air friction and sheer speed would cause them either to burn up (if flammable) or have the flesh ripped off their skeleton and die almost immediately. This applies to most objects that cannot withstand Joe's speed, with the exception of things that are durable enough to survive the high velocities such as metal objects (which even then, become incredibly hot due to the friction), or other Cyborgs (although once Joe reaches high enough speeds, it is implied that even other Cyborgs would not be able to withstand it.). He usually will not kill a human unless absolutely necessary.
Note: The main reason why many of the fights in Cyborg 009 did not end with Joe utterly blitzing his foes is due to the fact that many of his opponents were Cyborgs who also had Accelerators built into their bodies. Even if he was unable to blitz them, Joe did always try to use his Accelerator first.
