Divergent Fist

Divergent Fist (逕庭拳) is a punching-based Cursed Technique developed by Yuji Itadori.

Description
While training with Satoru Gojo, it was discovered that Yuji's Cursed Energy has a time lag. By striking with his fist using a thin layer Cursed Energy, a second wave of Cursed Energy is unleashed a few moments afterward, effectively creating two impacts with one punch.

Strengths
Yuji's direct hand to hand combat fighting style is greatly complimented by the Divergent Fist, which acts as the first step to him gaining control of his Cursed Energy.

Divergent Fist is especially effective on weaker spirits, who are usually taken off guard and defeated by the second impact.

Even against Special Grade Cursed Spirits like Mahito, Divergent Fist is effective. By perceiving Mahito's Soul, Yuji was able to use Divergent Fist to Mahito's soul directly, succeeding where Grade 1 moves like Nanami's Ratio Technique failed.

Usage
Yuji applies Divergent Fist to his brawler-like fighting style when combatting Curses or Curse Users. While his physical attacks would normally fail, Divergent Fist makes Yuji's strikes extremely effective against Curses.
