How is Toad summoned using the Ten Shadows Technique?

The Ten Shadows Technique is used to summon Toad by first defeating it in an exorcism ritual. Once the shikigami submits, it can be summoned using shadowgraphic hand signs. For Toad, the user forms a shadow puppet of a toad with their hands and fingers. The shadows serve as the intermediary for the shikigami conjuration, mirroring the shape of the user's hand-weaved shadow puppet and bringing the shikigami into existence.

Why is Toad considered a support type and referred to as quite weak by Megumi?

Toad, a shikigami summoned by Megumi, is classified as a support type due to its non-combative abilities. Megumi deems Toad as relatively weak, likely in comparison to other shikigami. Despite this, Toad's tongue is instrumental in pulling allies to safety, restraining enemies, and launching them forcefully. It has proven useful in search and rescue operations, demonstrating its value beyond direct confrontations.

How does Toad's abilities compare to Megumi's other shikigami?

Megumi Fushiguro's Toad shikigami, summoned with the Ten Shadows Technique, is a support type with a powerful tongue for pulling allies to safety, catching projectiles, and restraining foes. However, it's weaker than other shikigami like Orochi, which can destroy low-level curses. Despite its relative weakness, Toad can be continuously summoned as long as Nue and Toad are alive.

Usage

Toad carrying Nobara in its mouth.

Toad is mainly a support type that Megumi refers to as quite weak. Megumi used Toad's tongue to quickly snatch Nobara's body out of harm's way. It also carried Nobara to safety in its mouth, showcasing that along with Divine Dog, Toad can be useful for search and rescue.

In battle Toad's tongue is good for ensnaring enemies and can even throw them against something with great force. Toad was able to wrap up Jiro Awasaka with its tongue and slammed him against the side of a walkway hard enough to break all the windows.

Toad using its tongue to pull Megumi out of harm's way.

To counter Awasaka's Inverse, Megumi used a simple poke from Toad's tongue to deal their first bit of damage to the curse user. Awasaka's technique made Toad's tongue much stronger, causing him great internal damage.

While fleeing from Toji Fushiguro during their fight in Shibuya, Megumi summoned Toad directly after using Rabbit Escape as a distraction. Just before Megumi was hit with a high-speed attack, Toad's tongue was able to snatch him out of the way. This also helped Megumi lead his opponent into a narrow space where they can only attack from one direction.
