The power of determination: A closer look at Kanzaki's journey in A Certain Magical Index

A determined magical index kanzaki is a character in the light novel and anime series, "A Certain Magical Index". Kanzaki Kaori, also known as the "Saint of Slicing", is a powerful swordswoman who wields the "Seven Mist Sword", an artifact that can cut through almost anything. Despite her small stature, Kanzaki is incredibly skilled in combat and is considered one of the strongest fighters in the series. Kanzaki's determination and unwavering resolve make her a compelling character. She is fiercely loyal to her friends and is willing to put her life on the line to protect them. Throughout the series, she faces numerous challenges and obstacles, but she never backs down.

So the only things left for Musashi are her NP, which I assume she won't use at first and can't use for long or multiple times in a row like most Servants, and Empyrean Eye. NP is not hard hitting enough to turn the battle around, and if Kanzaki realizes it takes significant effor from Musashi to do it she will just hang back and dodge to let Musashi waste her energy. Empyrean Eye seems cool and a good option, but if Andrew58 is right about it it's not as hax as to let her defeat much stronger fighters with ease, especially given Kanzaki might be able to pull a Knight Leader and just use magic to block any slash from Musashi. Not to mention she might get killed before realizing she needs to use it anyway.

Musashi s Magic Resistance isn t as strong as Arturia s in any case, so that really isn t a factor here given that Mordred had to actively dodge Semirami s spells.

Throughout the series, she faces numerous challenges and obstacles, but she never backs down. Her determination is what sets her apart from others and allows her to overcome seemingly impossible odds. In addition to her combat abilities, Kanzaki is also a talented magician.

Story-wise,Musashi in shimosa manage to fight and win against Servant as just mortal. She is even stronger as servant.

Her mystic eye is hax

Her Emptiness skill is hax.as it only need enough concentration to activate.

Her swordmanship is almost hax.

Her megic resistance's rank is A that can ignore even large scale magic ritual.

She is very good at analysis her enemy(thank to her eye that is not only have hax ability,It has very good analysis ability as well) ,as she can find the way to counter Hozoin's spear technique just after 1 fight(Note:corrupted Hozoin's technique is little worse than his normal self made it become imperfect and become easier to find the way to counter)

Kanzaki would have the edge, servant strength aren't as high as saints in toaru. (Acqua's attack was like a meteor hitting earth). As for magic resistance, A rank wouldn't neutalize the toaru saint's magic, look at astolfo, he had A rank (due to his np) didn't help him much against semranmis.

As for magic eye, she couldn't beat saber emperio with it, its not as hax as people say. (Just like how people overblown Nasuverse clairvoyance, when Gil states the vision comes and goes)

Kanzaki would most likely win.

Sword beams are not going to be very useful considering speed equalized unless used at very short range, and at that range Musashi is going to be under a 360┬║ magic assault from Kanzaki's wires. And before someone brings up the usual Nasuverse NLF magic resistance again, Medea is listed as Mountain level with magic for being able to bypass Saber's similar A-ranked MR, and Semiramis is also listed as such for doing the same with Astolfo's A-rank. Kanzaki's magic allows her to hold her own against a very casual Acqua. Therefore, Toaru's Saint-level magic should work fine, even if a bit weakened, which is compensated for Musashi being much weaker than Acqua. Which also brings up how Kanzaki is physically superior to Musashi and shold have little difficulty overpowering her in a swordfight. Nothingness seems worhtless in this fight.

So the only things left for Musashi are her NP, which I assume she won't use at first and can't use for long or multiple times in a row like most Servants, and Empyrean Eye. NP is not hard hitting enough to turn the battle around, and if Kanzaki realizes it takes significant effor from Musashi to do it she will just hang back and dodge to let Musashi waste her energy. Empyrean Eye seems cool and a good option, but if Andrew58 is right about it it's not as hax as to let her defeat much stronger fighters with ease, especially given Kanzaki might be able to pull a Knight Leader and just use magic to block any slash from Musashi. Not to mention she might get killed before realizing she needs to use it anyway.

IMO Empyrean Eye seems like the only thing preventing a stomp.

Which one the NP or Empyrean Eye? And was proof given or it's some unfounded claim like the recent BS lies about Accelerator's matter manipulation?

I'd appreciate it if you could not use charged language like, "the usual Nasuverse NLF Magic Resistance". I've been having the same issue with some other users in that they're downright hostile to the explanations we have for the Nasuverse.

But I don't really see how this is going to end as anything but a stalemate. Musashi isn't strong enough to really hurt Kaori, but Empyrean Eye will collapse all possibilities in Musashi's favor.

She doesn't really spam her NP since she's a swordswoman first and foremost, but her level of skill is comparable to Sasaki Kojiro's, who became so skilled that he can manifest three alternate possibilities for his sword's swing at the same time through nothing but sheer skill. When the two clashed, space-time imploded to the point that they could fight for an infinite amount of time in the span of an instant.

Both swords transcend time and space, yet their existence and concept are the exact opposite.

Ten of thousands, hundreds of millions of "possibilities" exist. Verify them all, crush them all, stop them all. A "finite" sword that strives to reach a single "correct answer". Until there is nothing left, cut everything until only "something" remains. That is Musashi's "zero". A sword that establishes a "conclusion" that not even the gods can escape from.

A sword of infinity that leads to multiplicity. A way to acknowledge "multiple possibilities". An "infinite" sword that gives birth to several "correct answers". That is Kojiro's "Tsubame Gaeshi". A sword that creates a "future" that not even the gods can escape from.

An infinite place. Or perhaps, an empty place. There is no time. There is no space. There is no karma. There is no good or evil. A situation only those two who put their very souls into their blades can reach.

A single hit. Simultaneously, both of them surpass infinity. Both of them would continue to try to kill each other. Over and over, for all of eternity.

This is not the real world, this moment will never be recorded or stopped for anyone. This place lies between the real world and the world of dreams. An impossible place where infinity and zero can intersect. But. But. There is. one more person watching them.

You can see it. A miraculous sword fight that is supposed to go on forever, never reaching its conclusion. But at the end of the dream there can only be one winner. Who do you see? Which swordsman is standing alive and smiling? Now, say it.

Musashi's Magic Resistance isn't as strong as Arturia's in any case, so that really isn't a factor here given that Mordred had to actively dodge Semirami's spells.

LazyHunter

Sorry. But it is a fact that some Nasuverse fans pretend magic resistance automatically makes the magic of a comparable enemy useless when that is clearly not the case and should be judged by the limits it has displayed in-story, not to mention how many abilities of the verse present themselves to easy NLF fallacies. I've said the same thing about people wanking Toaru abilities multiple times, as I just did in my next comment regarding what people recently claim Accelerator can do with his matter manipulation. So don't worry, I'm not biased against the series or the fans who made the pages, I'm just commenting on how they're ignored by some to wank them, as it happens with a lot of other series.

Who became so skilled that he can manifest three alternate possibilities for his sword's swing at the same time through nothing but sheer skill. When the two clashed, space-time imploded to the point that they could fight for an infinite amount of time in the span of an instant.

The first thing is also supposed to be done through a supernatural power that was apparently granted to him not only because of his swords skill but also partially because of his perseverance of trying to pull the "cutting a swallow" trick, or at least that's what I've been told by some fans. It is not merely achieved through pure skill. The second part is unquantifiable, like saying that an attacks heat or coldness is so great it "distorts space". Yeah, its obviously a sign of extreme levels of skill, but how does it compare to actual fighting skill, because the quote you give primarily looks like flowery hyperbole hyping up their respective supernatural powers and apparently the place where they're fighting from the looks of it. Because I don't believe the two transcended time/space/infinity in a way that would be useful in a fight because that would be the kind of thing that would have already been added to their pages by now. If that kind of thing was caused by the clashes of their two opposite supernatural powers, is not even a thing that will happen in this fight.

So yeah, Musashi likely has the skill advantage, but it's not like's she's fighting someone who doesn't know what they're doing. Kanzaki can hold her own against three swordmasters of equal or superior skill to hers at the same time for hours, she can hold her own here in terms of skill, which combined with her superior AP/Durability should make a pure sword fight difficult for Musashi.

Not to mention that if the possibilities of the fight don't include Musashi being able to dodge Kanzaki eternally she shouldn't be able to do that. Or that she will likely run out of steam much earlier than Kanzaki's if she has to keep that kind of ability on all the time just to survive.

IMO Empyrean Eye seems like the only thing preventing a stomp.

She possesses a unique skill called "Sword Dancing", which allows her to create illusions and manipulate her opponents. This skill, combined with her swordsmanship, makes her an even more formidable opponent. Despite her strength and skill, Kanzaki is not without flaws. She struggles with her past and carries the weight of her mistakes. However, she uses these experiences to fuel her determination and become a better person. Her determination is not only shown in her battles, but also in her ability to grow and learn from her past. Overall, Kanzaki's determination as a magical index is what makes her character so compelling. Her unwavering resolve, loyalty to her friends, and ability to overcome challenges make her a force to be reckoned with. Whether she is fighting to protect her loved ones or facing her own internal struggles, Kanzaki always remains determined and steadfast..
