It Honestly Shocks Me How Virtually No One In The TBHK Fandom Is Talking About How Physically Strong

It honestly shocks me how virtually no one in the TBHK fandom is talking about how physically strong Yashiro is. She is a lot stronger than we give her credit for.

Haters will call it glaze, but I call it appreciation.

Now, let me make this clear for anyone who wants to be like, "well, ackshually--" yes, I know that Yashiro doesn't have the same amount of physical strength as Hanako---of course she doesn't. Hanako, despite having the build of a stick, is capable of taking down entities twice his size with just his willpower and a knife.

Hanako has obviously had more than enough time to adapt to the world around him and thus got adequate fighting skills as a result of that. No question that Yashiro obviously is not on the same physical wavelength. But y'all aren't going to gaslight me into saying that Yashiro can't throw hands.

Sure, we can argue that some of these moments were for comedic effect, but I don't think it downplays her feats here. She might not have Isekai level fighting skills, but she knows how to get rrready to rrrumble.

Heck, from the very start when her and Hanako's bond was first officialized by the mermaid scale, Hanako teases her (like the jackoff he is) and Yashiro responds by elbowing this nickel clean in the NECK. In fact, she elbows him so hard, it KNOCKS him over into the DESKS.

Yes, we could also argue in this moment that Yashiro didn't mean to actually hurt him since she didn't know she could touch him. But the fact she even still threw hands at him says quite a bit to me.

In fact, the added notion that she thought she COULDN'T harm him makes it more effective in displaying her strength in being able to fully topple this boy over. Because if that's what she was gonna do ironically, how strong would she be if she were to seriously throw hands? (Don't worry, that question is answered later in this post)

Yashiro since then continues to throw hands with Hanako whenever he gets on her nerves. She beats on Hanako nearly every other crescent moon, but Hanako deals with it because he's a masochist. There's no other explanation I can provide for why he lets her do this stuf to him.

There's no way he's NOT actively letting her hurt him with the amount of physical strength Hanako clearly has and has been shown to have (this dude won a fight against floating scissors in the Misaki Stairs, for crying out loud---)

Did we forget that time in the spinoff manga where she managed to pin him down to the floor with a MOP?

Or what about that time Yashiro heard him talk about her and so she defied physics and attacked from the side HEAD FREAKING FIRST?

"Oh but that's just her and Hanako's dynamic--"

Fear not, dear reader, because there's many more instances of Yashiro casually flexing her strength and agility.

There was a time within the Misaki Stairs arc where Yashiro literally runs and glides across a DOLL to jump up, then lands perfectly, and reaches Yako's yorishiro. Even Hanako was shocked.

Oh, that's not enough?

Well, let me introduce you to a (not-so) wonderful being known as Nakahara from Chapter 115, who pinned Yashiro to a wall and she (rightfully) responded by UPPERCUTTING HIM from the JAW, doing a FRONT FLIP across the guy's CHEST, landing on the floor perfectly, and speeding off away from him.

Comedic, exaggerated, or not, you can't deny that's some pretty impressive stuff.

I don't care what no one says, Yashiro can throw hands when it counts.
