History Awesome / Tsukihime

*** Killing the universe is explicitly impossible for Shiki Tohno. It ''is'', however, perfectly possible for [[spoiler:[[Literature/KaraNoKyoukai Shiki Ryougi]]]].

** The manga keeps topping itself. That fight is still a crowning moment for Akiha. Ciel gets a new one when she fights Roa...including at one point pulling a [[FateStayNight Gate of Babylon]] [[ReverseShrapnel style attack]] using Black Keys.

** Nanaya avenging his family by killing ''Kouma'', one of the few people Nasu stated to be able to fight against [[FateStayNight Heroic Spirits]] (even though he does die in the process)

** Of course, the manga makes this even scarier for Roa and turns Shiki into a SNKBoss, who ''kills'' every single magic attack from Roa! Also, after he destroyes the hallway, he doesn't use the stairway to follow Roa like in the Visual Novel or the Anime... [[AdaptationalBadass HE JUMPS AFTER HIM AND KILLS ROA IN FREE FALL!]]

** On the [[Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick Order of the Stick]] forums, on one of the vs. threads, I forget which Shiki it was, but s/he managed to ''solo the '''entire [[{{Warhammer 40000}} Warhammer 40k]] universe'''''.

* Any time Shiki's SuperpoweredEvilSide, Nanaya, makes an appearance. Without fail, something will die, and in a very awesome way. The manga seems particularly fond of this.

** Shiki's fight with Nero, an already noteworthy event from the VisualNovel made even more awesome by the emphasis on Nanaya-mode. Collapsed on the ground and surrounded by demonic familiars about to devour him, he snaps, shredding everything around him and laughing crazily as their blood rains down upon him.

* The fight against the Tatari with the appearance of poor Satsuki in the manga of "Melty Blood": Especially the point, where Tatari!Satsuki managed to pin Shiki down and punched the cr... his blood out of him! ...Until it realized that Shiki wasn´t under it anymore and the blood on its hand didn´t belong to Shiki... And then its arm already fell off...

--->Roa: Ha... this is it! This is what I wanted! 800 years ago, I HAD seen eternity! The princess of the moon, not fading even a bit since that moment! I present to you to the spectacle of the burning end of my 18th death, my final reincarnation!

* And, of course, Shiki's climactic battle with Roa in the school. Shiki gives a [[WorldOfCardboardSpeech monologue]] that ''terrifies'' Roa, then takes him by surprise by ''killing the hallway around them''. This quote sums it up very well:

** OrIsIt? This is [[MindScrew Kagetsu Tohya]] we're talking about here...

*** Killing the universe is explicitly impossible for Shiki Tohno. It ''is'', however, perfectly possible for [[spoiler:[[KaraNoKyoukai Shiki Ryougi]]]].

** I agree with the awesomeness of the scene, but at this point Kohaku's speech is less a MotiveRant and more Kohaku trying to justify why she became the SpannerInTheWorks for her own XanatosGambit, within the context of her 'doll' delusion.

* It has to be said. As [[AdaptationDecay bad as the anime adaptation]] was, and as out-of-character as it would be for [[ChickMagnet Shiki]] to sit there and take it, [[OurVampiresAreDifferent Arcueid]], [[ChurchMilitant Ciel]], and [[HalfHumanHybrid Akiha]] getting into a verbal catfight over him makes perfect sense...but it's the fact that ''[[OnlySaneMan Satsuki]]'' finally jumps out of her seat and tells them all to shut up, sit down, and leave Shiki the hell alone (which they ''do'', possibly out of shock) that feels oddly satisfying. Go [[spoiler:non-vampire]] Sacchin!
