Blood Manipulation ( (せっ) (けつ) (そう) (じゅつ) Sekketsu Sōjutsu?) is an inherited technique passed down in the Kamo Family. It allows the user to control their own blood.

Description

As the name implies, Blood Manipulation is a cursed technique that allows the user to control and shape their blood beyond its natural form or motion for a variety of effects. It can be used to manipulate every aspect of the user's blood, including blood composition, plasma, and red blood cells.[1] Internal and external blood can be utilized as long as it belongs to the user.

Blood can be manipulated in a variety of ways utilizing this technique. External blood can be hardened or shaped to create mid-range projectiles. Internal blood can be used to control one's own pulse rate and body temperature, effectively giving themselves more energy to increase their physical capabilities.

As with any cursed technique, Blood Manipulation's efficiency and strength depend on the user. Noritoshi Kamo's Piercing Blood was unable to harm the special grade cursed spirit Hanami, while Choso's was able to severely injure Yuji Itadori. Control over external blood can also be nullified under specific circumstances where the amount of water in the area renders blood unable to hold any shape.

The user is also limited by the amount of their own blood they have access to. Too much blood loss could obviously result in death, so users generally prepare blood bags or weapons dipped in their blood in advance.

The blood of a Blood Manipulation user is poisonous to cursed spirits.[2]

Usage

Noritoshi Kamo

Noritoshi possesses the hereditary cursed technique of the Kamo Clan and is able to utilize it to control all aspects of his blood, internally and externally. Possession of this technique also granted him the position of the heir to the Kamo Clan.

To overcome the limitations of the technique, he always carries a number of bags which contain his blood and arrows which are dipped in his blood. Combined with his marksmanship skills, he is able to control blood-dipped arrows after firing them to manipulate their trajectory. Thanks to various applications of the technique, Noritoshi is able to engage combats in close-range to long-range. During the Kyoto Sister-School Goodwill Event, after he used all of his arrows, he chose to engage in close-combat with Megumi, a shikigami user, by manipulating his internal blood to increase his physical capabilities.[3]

As the fight continues, when Noritoshi was out of his arrows and physical engagement was not possible, he used one of his blood bags to utilize an extension technique which solidifies the blood and renders his target immobile.[4] After the fight is interrupted by an unexpected third party, his versatility has been shown as he is able to create a rotating chakram of blood[5] and shoot a compressed beam of blood.[6]

During the Culling Game, Noritoshi demonstrated additional applications of his cursed technique. He manipulated his blood to form an impromptu shield to reduce the damage he would take against Naoya Zenin as a cursed spirit,[7] created blood caltrops that hover in the air to defend Maki Zenin and damage Naoya,[8] and controlled large amounts of blood outside of his body while circulating it externally to prevent death by blood loss.[9]

Choso

Due to his unique physiology as one of the Death Painting Wombs, Choso advanced the Blood Manipulation to a degree which is hard to accomplish as a sorcerer. As long as Choso has enough cursed energy, he is able to convert his cursed energy into blood which enables him to overcome one of the fundemental weaknesses of the Blood Manipulation. This makes him capable of bleeding a literal wave of blood without suffering any significant disfunction in his performance.[10] Aside from nigh-unlimited source of blood, his blood has special poisonous properties similar to his siblings Eso and Kechizu which takes effect fairly quickly and drains its victim's stamina, causing them to soon find themselves short of breath. Even if his targets find a way to reduce the damage taken or heal the damage taken from his techniques, he can still incapacitate his targets with this poison.[11]

Besides special properties his body has, Choso is a master of creatively using this technique to manipulate his own blood and utilizes it in nearly every facet of his combat arsenal. He is able manipulate his blood internally and externally expertly in various ways, such as hardening his blood to deal more damage to his targets, increasing his blood pulse to a degree that he could match the speed of Naoya, shooting hardened blood missiles or streaming blood fast enough to slash his targets.

While he was still a cursed object, Choso invented an original technique that allows him to gain an advantage over an enemy who is familiar with Blood Manipulation.
