When the Colossus Titan shifter transforms, it generates a large explosion
which can be used to kill their enemies. How large is this explosion supposed
to be? Is there any info about this?

How large is the blast generated by the explosion of the Colossus Titan transformation?


It actually varies, since bertholt had quite precise control over it.

  * When he transformed into the Collosal titan (partial transformation though), over the wall at Trost, _his transformation only caused a wind blast who knocked some trainees over the Wall_.

  * Then at the return at Shiganshina, he transformed mid air, _with the explosion being comparable to a nuclear weapon_ , also releasing smoke cloud high up in the air. (But as it seems, he still could have done an EVEN MORE EXPLOSIVE, but he could fight well, and had enough mass thereafter too)

  * In control of Armin, the explosion during the transformation at the PORT was enough to blast off the naval port at Marley.

So far till now, the explosion is comparable to a small nuclear bomb, though
if intended only a single transformation, more explosive transformation may
take place, this is upto speculation.

NOW, A MAJOR SPOILER FROM MANGA
