Shibuya Cursed Techniques

Sixteen techniques are on the guide’s list. You do not roll most of them at character creation. Grade 2, the desert, and Yuki Sato are the path. Drop rates below are that guide’s numbers, one source.

How to get one

  1. Climb to Grade 2. The exam is the red phone booth in the beginner route.
  2. Buy Tomoe’s gas mask (5,000 yen) and pay Jira (10,000 yen) so the desert gate opens.
  3. Cross with Akone’s bike, plant the relay, and talk to Yuki Sato. “Teach me my technique” opens the shop.
  4. Clear the trial. The guide describes a timed E press. Then buy the skills you were shown. Piercing Blood is 25,000 yen, Slicing Exorcism 12,000, Supernova 40,000 on the blood list.

Heavenly Restriction and Anti-Gravity are marked unobtainable on the sheet even though they have move lists. I leave that flag as written instead of “explaining” a secret quest. Rikka, Divergent Fists, Shrine, Projection, Limitless, Ice, Blood, Flame, Light, Lightning, Straw Doll, Mechamaru, Cursed Speech, and Moon Dregs are marked obtainable. Mythic drops are written at 0.22% (Shrine, Projection, Anti-Gravity, Limitless). Legendary Ice and Blood at 11.1%. Rare Flame, Light, and Lightning at 22.06%. The source writes 66.62% for each of the four commons. Its percentages therefore total more than 100% when read per technique; their probability scope is unresolved, and they must not be added or treated as a calibrated distribution.

Light is the only technique name with its own small search (“light ct in shibuya beta”). Its moves are Spirit Summon, Jacob’s Ladder, and Blitz, tier note B. Technique rerolls from codes are how you roll again after the trial exists on your character. Which kit is worth the reroll is an opinion on the tier list. Clans that change the kit — Okkotsu, Itadori, Zenin — are on clans.

Questions

How do you get a cursed technique in Shibuya?

Reach Grade 2, pay the desert gate, and take Yuki Sato’s trial in the underground town. Incarnated Sorcerer also starts with one free skill.

What is Light CT?

Light is a rare technique in the guide, with Spirit Summon, Jacob’s Ladder, and Blitz. It is not a separate game mode.
