Yujiro actively does that too without the need of techniques. Again, he can identify individual cells that will have cancer in the future, that is how good he is at identifying weaknesses. Managing to discover someone's ancestry is nice, but again, I don't see how it means that it is better at the combat applications.
I agree, it is more flexible, but that's not really the point of Shaori. There are other techniques in Baki universe way more flexible than Shaori, such as the one that Yujiro's body consistency becomes like "water" (Clearly not water-like, but flowing like it), the point of Shaori is receiving the KE and fully embracing it, absorbing it on (almost) its entirety to nullify damage.
That is actually a good point, and one I'll cover on my analysis. I don't exclude the possibility of him using it ocasionally on the fight, but I agree, he is not really the kind of character that fully uses something he's copied. Yujiro makes a point of using mostly only his combat instincts, raw skill and pure violence, ocasionally peppering it with more exotic stuff to spice things up or just for the hell of it. He rarely does any specific technique because he needs it.
A lot to unpack here.
Baki is Jojo with martial arts lol
I'm well aware how outlandish it gets, I'm just saying that 0.5 seconds is below-average reaction time by real world standards, let alone super people like Tanjirou. You can't exactly verse equal biological limitations.
Yeah, I always interpreted that as instead of being literally 0,5 seconds, as just removing the (very small) timeframe it takes for the nerves to transfer commands to and from the brain about what to do in a combat situation. Even in Baki a 0,5 time frame doesn't make sense.
I agree, and I don't dispute the speed advantage Tanjiro has. The thing is that I doubt that it would be that massive as Yujiro too has several speed amplification techniques (While it is fair to assume equal speed per SBA, it isn't to assume that the precognition and amp abilities that Yujiro has are just as good as those characters Tanjiro fought), and he has several methods to catch the blade, even if it means getting cut. In fact, even in real life swordsmanship manuals, allowing yourself to get cut on a nonlethal part to get a good attack is a good last measure, and given the considerably superior durability, distance, speed amps, instinctive reaction, precog and all the other stuff, assuming Tanjiro starts using the See-Through World from the get-go, Yujiro should be able to prepare himself that much and hit or grab Tanjiro. Also, I'd note that I fully agree that skill matters less the stronger and faster the opponent are, at least on a human scope. Yujiro not only is a bit of an exception (Well, less of an exception and more that his skill is so great that you need to be considerably stronger/faster for that to matter), but we aren't on a scenario that he's only blitzed or a mindless brute who is stronger but slower. He has many other tools at his disposal to take care of the speed, and his skill fully allows him to do so.
Yujiro specifically has resistance to having his strength gauged, even by people who had actively studied and fought him several times on the past. Even Baki who has insane analytical capabilities couldn't fathom Yujiro's true strength. The maximum he could replicate was a 8-B+ phantom image, that even he himself recognized as being way below of what Yujiro was.
It'd be best to check if the match is still viable, as IIRC both verses received a few CRTs after this match.
