** His backstory further demonstrates this trope. When in high school, he could singlehandedly beat down entire groups of thugs effortlessly, and already had an insane skill for throwing. When in college and pressed to the ground with his arm tightly gripped behind his back, Kyoma pushes his military-trained aggressor up slowly ''while the bones in his arm audibly fracture'' and seems relatively non-plussed about it. The mere demonstration of this trope (and his unbreaking resolve to [[spoiler: save Miyabi]]) was what got him hired into Grendel in the first place!
