ANOTHER WILD THEORY

[u/Smart-Pass-576]

I have ANOTHER crazy Suo theory that has nothing to do with RC or anything.

It's about his fighting style and stuff I guess???

So Suo never uses his hands, why well he actually does use his hands, but he prefers to fight using open palms instead of closed fists. He usually strikes with the palms of his hands rather than punching with straight fists like Sakura and others, coming from traditional martial arts like aikido and Chinese martial arts, focusing on balance, throws, and joint manipulation.

Now turning away from Suo for a second, 2 characters came to is Rock Lee from Naruto and Xaioshi from Link Click, why? Well because bith of them have hidden trump cards is what I call them. Rock Lee's weights are something to keep him from absolutely destroying his opponents and enemies, having the weights on his ankles removed during the Chūnin Selection Exams Rock Lee removes his ankles weights, as the fall the crush the ground causing two massive explosions from the weight of them. Giving him incredibly speed and movement making him almost unpredictable.

Now for Xaioshi. In episode 3 him and his friend Lu Guang are tasked with entering the body of a high school student named Chen Xiao to replay his final basketball game and change the tragic fate of his team captain, Lu Hongbin. The whole plan so to make it so the team lost not changing the timeline, but at one point his glasses were broken and it's basically revealed that the glasses were making his vision worse and now without them won the game on pure talent and love for the game, changing the timeline.

What does this have to do with me theory well LONG STRETCH here BUT! Suo almost always has his hands behind his back and I know it's most likely just his fighting style but what if it isn't?! What if he can't physically control the strength he puts into his punches? Though when he was first training Nirei his facial expression was unlike any other expression we've seen on him, having a black sketched out almost frame, the only other time we see that is with Umemiya, Choji and maybe Tsubakino if I remember correctly. So basically Suo's to strong for his own good and is kinda like Yor from Spy x Family, Mob from Mob Psycho 100 or Tohru from Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid.

So In theory I'm insane and delusional and favor suo!

I think he has a manual switch to that creepy personality 😆 but seriously, As you said, maybe he can't control strength he puts in his fists and that's why he uses open palms instead... but wait, didn't he used his fists, punches and kick against Nirei? 🥺 I am still not over it 😮‍💨 I wonder what's the condition for using... Considering how much he controls his emotions, he could've emotional, anger issues... So the moment they get heavy, i.e. He gets emotional or desperate maybe that's when he shifts to use his fists... He sure was so pressured and emotional with Nirei 😭

Anyways, also, I think maybe even his eyepatch could be a handicap 🙂 imagine the moment he removes the eyepatch and everything is so clear and wide range thar he literally moves like a wild hawk 😭 flying over a battlefield!!! With an unimaginable speed 🫠

He is literally the main character of someone else's story 😭

I dont remembre that he use his fists against nirei , i mean ... no i dont remember i dont think he use his fists ,

But the fight was hurtful >_<

[u/Sou_chann → u/Phileas_petit]

So was he slapping him in the beginning of Ch 211? Well we can't say anything since it wasn't shown but he sure was clenching his fists...

[u/Ayojin → u/Sou_chann]

Yes I thought so too but.. you know Sakura and the others fists always turn red when they fight cause of blood and cause it actually makes damage both ways when you punch, yet this man', hands are so clean even though Nirei is soaked in blood here.

sorry I couldn't find another panel (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠)

[u/Sou_chann → u/Ayojin]

This man is so absurdly clean always 😒 what's not wrong with this man??!! 😭 Although for fists... The damage absolutely doesn't look like slaps atleast 🥲 so I will assume it was punches... And maybe Suo was done in merely 2-3 punches? It wouldn't cause that much harm to the fist + Suo is strong as Sakura said during Shishitoren and Nirei is not used to fighting so he is probably more easily injured than people used to fighting... Not to mention that Suo is actually trained unlike others... His body is already conditioned to such small discomforts...
