The translation I watch says that meleoron "barely thought" to activate his power. So the thought started just before he got knocked

Oh right right, just re-read your comment haha. It probably was an instinct like Oak said, yeah.

it was likely just an instinct, his body acting on it's own.

Yeah that's my point that he did have the thought to activate Perfect Plan but Meruem was just too fast.

Oh, but doesn't he have to say "Perfect Plan" or "God's Accomplice" after holding his breath to activate them, though? That's probably what the narrator meant. He did breathe in and you could see him starting
to hold it in.

It always bothered me that the narrator said Meruem knocked out Meleoran before he could even think to activate his power when the show clearly shows us Meleoran taking a breath to activate his power.
