Ugh. Well that's not going to work. The flip is annoying and not something he's used to, though Koumyou flipped him the first time they fought, so whatever.

He wrenches his sword arm free, trying to butt her with the hilt so she'll move. He doesn't care about her claws dragging on him, and the fact that most people would is what he's banking on. He's aware it can be weird to deal with an opponent that can't feel pain.
