Personal hatsu
Mechanics diagram
Activation
  • Passive accumulation of time in the target's vicinity; equipment creation is a second, equal time investment.
Conditions
  • Deciphering time scales with the target ability's power.
  • Equipment-creation time equals the deciphering time and resets if interrupted (deciphering does not).
Effects
  • Full read of a target's ability mechanics.
  • Bespoke anti-ability (or pro-ability) equipment.
Restrictions
  • Cannot use Hatsu while deciphering or crafting.
Assessment
Description

Furykov's Specialist analysis ability, formally explained only in ch 413: by cumulatively spending time near a target, he deciphers the full details of their ability — then can spend the same amount of time again to craft equipment that destroys, supplements, or amplifies it. It is the engine behind his uncanny knack for spotting Nen users and their types.

Observed output
Effects
  • Full read of a target's ability mechanics.
  • Bespoke anti-ability (or pro-ability) equipment.
Counter-analysis
Weaknesses & counters
Weaknesses
  • Slow by design; useless in a surprise engagement.

Recorded uses
  1. CH.370His user-and-type identification talent (the ability's visible edge) already in play during the first Nen classes.
  2. CH.413Mechanics formally introduced after his confession to Benjamin.

Evidence
  • CH.413CanonicalNamed and explained on-page. How the pre-413 'telltale signs' skill maps onto Combo Master is partly interpretive.
