By the way @everythingyukimura (and anyone else interested), has the show ever explicitedly said that Kira had superhuman strength?
I mean, we know she has supernatural healing abilities, and supernatural speed. But I can’t remember normal Kira doing anything that would hint that she has super strength. Since she normally fights with a katana anyway, and the only time she used a nunchaku was against humans, we haven’t really had an opportunity to tell whether or not she has super strength from her fighting scenes.
However, dark!Kira fought Lori Talbot, a werewolf, but not with a blade. She punched her and pushed her back and seemed just as strong than her, if not a little stronger. She also threw Scott, an Alpha werewolf, down.
So. Do you think Kira normally has super strength, but the show just never bothered mentioning or showing it?
Or that she has it but has yet to tap into it whhen fighting as her regular self? LIke, she doesn’t know how to draw on it yet?
Or do you think that since her powers come from the kitsune spirit, the reason she has so much now is because the kitsune is at the forefront, but that she normally cannot reach such level of strength while being in control? (That is to say, the more in control the kistune is, the more power she has, but the less in control she herself is, so there is an amount of power she can’t reach without giving up on her agency?)
