Yes, the speed of the vector has no bearing on whether or not it's reflected, only whether or not it's harmful to him. HOWEVER, the speed of the vector would play into whether or not he can reflect it. Because last I checked, Accelerator cannot stop the time of the entire universe. So there's a tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, time lag between the time his ability realizes that the attack is harmful, and the time when the reflection then bounces it back. Which is the point of my calculations above. Whoever said it activated before an attack? The whole reason of the time it takes to activate, is because it only activates AFTER the attack.........................

Also, you're comparing two separate things here. The executioner in question simply stops his axe mid-air. Kihara was stopping his fist mid-air once it touched the distance to activate reflection, then swinging his fist backwards. Because if Kihara had simply stopped mid-air, nothing would have happened (Accelerator's ability is on auto-reflect, if it's standing still there's nowhere for it to reflect to). And again, this is where speed of reflection comes into play. The Executioner doesn't have to worry about anything as long as they pull back before they kill the prisoner. Kihara had a time window of less than .00002959 seconds in which he had to trigger Reflection, then pull back.

I agree with the metal pipe part though, if Accelerator was sufficiently shocked it would have slowed down his calculations enough for it to at least be plausible for that specific attack.
