Let's get this over with. Yujiro Hanma vs Ikki Kurogane.

Anyway let's get this shit on a roll.

AP: Yuji 1 shots, but not a problem with an opponent like Ikki.

Speed: Equal

Skill: Overall Ikki, but has to be debated technique by technique.

So Baki guys, let's get going. Do your worst.

I'm very confused, what is Phantom Form? I keep hearing different things on how it works.
Simple explanation: It's the 2nd most inconsistent thing in Rakudai. Right next to the scaling.

It's just a form of his sword, which doesn't deal damage. But at first it was described as stamina drain, later on it says "people feel the pain", some volumes later it says it works by "wrong impression". So to save brain cells i don't wanna argue it at all.
 
Oh godj oh fugg it's happening


Alright, let's start with the important stuff. Yujiro's equal to Ikki in CQC skill, Yujiro is a master at every martial art that exists (or that existed). His main abilities include attack reflection via Aikido, damage reduction with Xiao Lee, 0.5s Unconscious works under speed equalized, information analysis can instantly detect any physical weakness or traits, can one-shot Ikki via lots of durability negation moves. Has insane pain resistance and an even crazier stamina. Power Mimicry allows for him to copy any ability based on skill, mainly martial arts. Analytical Prediction allows for him to know every move Ikki is about to do.
 
I also forgot to tell about his many amps. Reaction speed, stamina, durability, speed in general, AP. He has amps for them all.
 
Doesn't Yujiro have the AP to just break Ikki's device/sword? ala Yujiro vs Motobe? (I could be wrong as I believe Devices are much stronger then the users durability)

I might be way off here rn... but I can't rly remember a device breaking... like... ever.
Would you happen to know if it has some kind of special property to prevent a break?
 
Devices can break, but only with attacks far more powerful than the user, like when Touka's Device was broken by Ikki using Ittou Rasetsu, but Ikki has the skill to stop 7-B attacks by doing things like redirecting the energy or something like that.
 
>Toukas device broke

>Instantly rewatching

Welp, I guess that rly did happen. However, then I am just gonna ask, do u know wether a device disperses after someone falls unconscious or does it stay materialized untill that person decides to disperse it?

theres a joke pretaining to the pic and your comment but im not saying it out loud.
Yeah, i shortly noticed it and edited the comment. It wasn't intended. I'm sorry.
 
Ok time to get started

@KG

>Yujiro's equal to ikki in CQC skill

No...just no. We can debate, you won't win though. Don't say i didn't warn you if you start the debate

>Is a master of all martal arts

I've debunked this countless times. Not all martial arts are combat applicable, and tons of them are useless. He mostly uses them to flex on assholes. There are only a handful which are good enough in combat.

>Attack reflection

It's not sth Yujiro ever uses, and even then it can be bypassed rather easily.

>Damage reduction

It's effectiveness is severely reduced when it's something like Ikki ignoring friction and slashing effects (not saying it won't work at all, but it works much less effectively against sharp weapons as it does against punches which cause a lot more push).

>0.5sec unconscious

I explained it even in the Baki thread. Ikki can tap into his unconsciousness has senses which will tell him beforehand about this, and has even beat a guy who could make 4 actions before Ikki could make 1. Yujiro's not gonna be able to do much.

>1 shot ikki

Yes true, he also has the ap advantage, but that's IF he lands a clean hit and Ikki doesn't tech it.

>Pain resistance and stamina

Not a factor as ikki's using material form intetsu.

>Power mimicry

No, Yujiro has never copied shit like ignoring friction and acceleration, actually hiding from someone's mind etc. He can copy a bunch, but it's gonna be hard. Especially since the best Yujiro has shown is copying 1 technique at a time. Which as stated in rakudai is significantly inferior to copying a style.

>Analytical Prediction

Hardly. Ikki has fooled mind reading before

>Reaction speed amp

Ikki has that too, an in character move, 10x reaction speed, makes him perceive shit in slow motion.


About breaking a device, there are 2 conditions. 1. You need to have more magic than the user. 2. A ton of AP.
 
I'll attend all the points by numbering them because i'm on my phone and it would be a pain to copy+paste everything you said


1. Yes. Why would Ikki be more skilled?


2. Well, if you think so, the same could be said about Ikki. Anyways, the martial arts of the Bakiverse aren't like real life martial arts, even arts that would normally be useless irl (Aikido) can give you good abilities there (attack reflection). Anyways, trust me, all martial arts of the Bakiverse have something good to them, none of them are useless.


3. He uses it if he feels like he needs to.


4. It has been implied to work against blades, Musashi only was able to beat through Retsu's Xiao-Lee because it was incomplete and because they had a huge AP gap. Under normal conditions, Xiao-Lee lets you no diff attacks millions of times stronger than you if you've mastered it.


5. It's best to touch on this subject when i get home (tomorrow)


6. Yeah, neither does Yujiro


7. Yeah, they're still important tho


8. Yujiro copied a martial art that requires more than a century of training to master in a glance. In order to even start to utilize this martial art, you have to go through rigorous training in order to remove your natural instincts of fear and rigidness, making your body completly limp like a feather even against someone who can one-shot you. God, he probably mastered Udonde by reading about it in a book since it's an extinct martial art. He can copy techniques that come from skill just like he can copy any martial art.


9. I do agree Ikki's AP is better thanks to the fact it's via magic, but still, at this point they're almost the same

10. Yujiro's also a 10x amp. But still there are many others.
