The Kyojuro Rengoku moment
A blunt warning before striking — followed by exactly the strike the warning described.
Why it fits Kyojuro Rengoku
Rengoku narrates his own attacks in plain language and then delivers them at the exact intensity promised. The combination — pre-announcing the move AND executing it without flourish — is the Confucian ideal of genkō-itchi, masculine martial professionalism in one line.
