==Summary==
 is the main protagonist of the Instant Death series and a high school student who got transported to another world by a woman called Sion. After being abandoned to die by his classmates for being powerless, and asleep, alongside Tomochika, Ayaka Shinozaki and an extra classmate they are quickly attacked by a wyvern and presumed dead.
Unbeknownst to his classmates and the "all powerful" sages that summoned him, Yogiri already possessed a special and powerful ability before being summoned into another world that can instantly kill anything with a single thought regardless of how illogical it may seem for the ability to work. Despite his powerful ability he is incapable of achieving the goal of returning home with it and thus he makes his way through the new world in order to find a way back home. Through the story, however, we slowly learn of Yogiri's true nature. An eldritch horror-type being who for unknown reasons manifested himself as Yogiri back in the old world.

Feats:
Yogiri Respect Thread
*Yogiri explains his power and how he can automatically kill people
*Yogiri can kill specific body parts of a person's body
*Yogiri can kill everyone in a certain direction from himself
*Yogiri can use his power in a way that makes the target die after a few seconds if he wants to. He also explains that his power is irreversible
*Yogiri can use his power however he wants as long as it leads to the death of the one it was used upon, and he also mentions that his power is irreversible once activated.
*Yogiri's ability does not negate the regeneration, but instead negates the regaining of their functions through any method. Ex: If Yogiri kills someone’s ears they can cut them off and regenerate them perfectly but they still won’t be able to hear, not even trough telepathy.
*Yogiri "kills" a dog man’s eyes, ears, and nose; negating the senses that go along with them. No amount of healing magic was useful, and the dog-man is completely unable to communicate with others or grasp aspects of the world, even telepathy is effectively negated...
*Analyze skill can't detect Yogiri's abilities
*"Killing intent" is a rather lacking description for his powers, since he actually can sense/predict any hazards towards his life
*Yogiri's can see hazards in the form of shadows which allows him to know where attacks were going to land, the source of the danger or the trajectory of the attack.
*Yogiri's Instant Death "killed" Lisa’s ice magic, completely negating it, and he also “killed” her magic staff causing it to shatter to pieces.
*Yogiri can kill clothes
*Yogiri killed Lain’s true body through the indirect connection Lain’s B existence had with Lain’s (main) existence who’s existence was reliant on her real body which was located in a completely different dimension.
*Yogiri only leads towards one future and his opponent could not attack within time stop because they would get him killed trough killing intent.
*Yogiri can kill barriers
*Yogiri’s ability reacts to the Celestial Foundation Eater’s killing intent and causes that the death of the avatar of the Celestial Foundation Eater to become a decided future.

*Vahanato was instinctively afraid of Yogiri and would not take aim at him with her light attacks despite her having lost all of her sanity.
*Yogiri's ability is beyond the normal flow of time and beyond fate
*More about Yogiri's ability
*Yogiri is capable of killing the immortal ruler of life and death, someone on whom the concept of death should not even apply to
*Yogiri's true form is beyond Fate and Plot itself.
*Yogiri can perceive and freely manipulate the higher-dimensional Abyss/Astral Plane.
*Yukimasa's ability of rewriting the future at will couldn't deal with Yogiri.
*Yogiri can use his powers even while sleeping.
*If Yogiri dies, he will reincarnate into a new vessel.

*Yukimasa's ability of rewriting the future at will didn't work on Yogiri.
*His true form exists across all space and time.
*Looking at his true form makes people tremble in terror and lose sanity.
*Yogiri's true form is the End of all things. An embodiment of nonexistence that overcomes all others, and from which everything returns to after their end/deaths, of which there is nothing beyond, not even Fate and Plot itself, as those are also equally terminated in front of this calamity. Kouryu, an extremely knowledgeable god in regards to the cosmology of the multiverse, compared Yogiri to a natural limiter of reality, in which it is the inevitable end of the line that puts in check whatever god or entity that tries to destroy all of creation, ensuring its safety and balance, even if indirectly.

*Even as a baby, Yogiri could still retaliate with his power.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Instant Death: Instant Death is Yogiri’s ability to kill anything with a single thought. Although he usually says something like “die” along with it, it’s actually stated and shown to be thought-based on multiple occasions as he can also activate it while saying anything else, such as "you're the eyesore".Volume 1 Chapter 19 It has been noted that what phenomena occurs after he targets an object to kill it is dependent on Yogiri's cognition of the death. For example, if a door's purpose is to block the way into another room, it only becomes logical that once the door dies, it will allow him to cross the entrance.Volume 2 Chapter 16 However, this is something that Yogiri does not actively do when using his ability, as it occurs by itself. Despite the name of the ability, it is not necessarily instantaneous if Yogiri decides to not make it so, as there is some leeway as to when his targets can die, as long as they do die eventually.Volume 1 Chapter 13 Seemingly connected to the nature of instant death, Yogiri's perception of the world shows him any hostility directed at him or his allies, or just plain hazards, and he use that to track enemies he would not normally be capable of detecting, predict their movements/thought patterns, or automatically retaliate with the activation of instant death. 
**Automatic Defenses: Even if the opponent is faster than what Yogiri can physically react, his powers activate automatically to retaliate before any harm is done to him.Volume 14 Chapter 11
**Partial Killing: Yogiri can kill specific limbs or the organs of his targets if he wants, such as their senses (looking, hearing, smelling), arms, legs, fingers, hands, etc.Volume 1 Chapter 13 Even if you cut off the affected limb and try to regenerate/heal it, said limb will still be affected by his ability, and thus won't ever function again, no matter what the target does.Volume 1 Chapter 17 It should be noted that at the beginning of series, Yogiri wasn't fully capable of killing specific parts of the body, but he eventually learned how to do it by training with his powers.Volume 4 Chapter 20
**Immortality Negation: Yogiri is not only capable of killing anything, but he can also completely negate different types of immortality, such as resurrection,Volume 5 Chapter 6Volume 7 Chapter 8 regeneration, people who are already dead,Volume 1 Chapter 34 and even targets to whom the concept of death doesn't apply.Volume 4 Chapter 6 Furthermore, even if the enemy resides in a different plane and uses avatars to attack Yogiri, he can reach the true form by killing said avatars.Volume 1 Chapter 36Volume 1 Chapter 37
**Resistance/Immunity Negation: Yogiri's power is capable of completely bypassing immunity and resistance towards instant death abilities.Volume 2 Chapter 16Volume 4 Chapter 4 No matter how much defenses or resistances to instant death a person has, it is all meaningless in front of Yogiri.Volume 7 Chapter 20
*Seals: Due to wanting to be as human as possible, Yogiri constantly restrains his power with seals (also called Gates) that are locked within his mind. By imagining them opening, he can release more of his powers one by one. Each seal (when unlocked) leads Yogiri to a new phase, and each phase greatly amplifies his power. From the second seal and up, those doors would automatically close after a certain period of time. This proccess was set up to prevent him from accidentally destroying the world.Volume 4 Chapter 14 
**1st Phase: When this gate is active, Yogiri becomes capable of killing anything (with a thought or automatically), can sense killing intent, and can foresee any incoming danger that might harm him. This is the standard Phase that is usually active at all times.
**2nd Phase: When this gate is active, in addition of the powers from the 1st Phase, Yogiri's ability can now kill targets on a more abstract/semantic level. Yogiri has used this phase to kill his own momentum, falling energy, gravity itself, radioactive photons, wind, noise, and heat.Volume 4 Chapter 19 Additionally, he can use this power through the use of other people as a medium, being able to kill anyone/anything that his targets have ever seen from their memories,Volume 4 Chapter 20 & 21 as well as automatically killing anyone who tries to kill a certain person he has "marked" with this power, essentially protecting them.Volume 2 Side Story: The Agency
**Final Phase: This is the default state of Yogiri before he put any gate or restriction on his power when the organization asked him if he wanted to live a normal life. When the 3rd gate is active, in addition of the powers from previous Phases, Yogiri's ability can now kill the associations between two things. Yogiri has used it to kill the connection/association/relationship between Mitsuki and his own dream (which was the universe), leaving him in a coma with the sole purpose of sustaining the world. Simply put, this Final Phase is capable of killing the repercussions and associations that would happen after the target is killed.Volume 14 Chapter 24Volume 14 Chapter 25
*Killing Intent, Precognition and Black Lines of Death: Yogiri can sense and foresee any incoming danger that might harm him or his allies beforehand, being able to quickly kill the cause or just dodge said harm flawlessly.Volume 1 Chapter 18Volume 1 Chapter 19Volume 1 Chapter 31Volume 7 Chapter 12 Moreover, he can also see black lines/fogs on people or places, which indicates that there is potential danger involving them.Volume 1 Chapter 22 It is later explained that Yogiri doesn't detect only killing intent, but actually any potential harm to his existence.Volume 4 Chapter 4 For example, even when it comes to unintentional attacks, or attacks from a user that doesn't even know about Yogiri's existence, they are still automatically killed if it's a threat to him.Volume 4 Chapter 4 In addition, he is able to detect power sources from different dimensions and kill them there,Volume 4 Chapter 16 as well as detect people who have the power of being impossible to be perceived by any means.Volume 7 Chapter 12 
**Subjective Threat-Detection: Yogiri's power can subjectively recognize certain types of abilities as "a threat" even if they technically don't do any physical harm to him, such as mental attacks, automatically retaliating the enemy before the ability even affects him.Volume 4 Side Story: The AbyssVolume 13 Chapter 21
