By cutting the lines of his opponent's techniques, he can nullify them, such as when he disabled Roa's bounded field and lightning magecraft), Regeneration Negation (At least High-Godly; Because of Shiki killing the concept of "you," wounds dealt through the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception will not heal even after a conceptual regeneration of the being), Non-Physical Interaction, Conceptual Manipulation (Can kill someone in a conceptual level and sometimes can "kill" concepts), Existence Erasure (.

Completely destroyed Roa's soul so that it could not reincarnate through the Swirl of the Root. Roa's soul is durable enough to survive absorption by the Root as well. ) | Large Island level+ (Severely harmed Vampire Sion and claims to be able to defeat her over and over again), Unknown with Mystic Eyes of Death Perception. | Large Island level+ (As a Tatari of White Len, he defeated Kishima Kouma with little issue and stalemated him in Actress Again while injured and hindered from previous fights) | Large Island level+ (As a Tatari of Wallachia, he should be superior to his White Len manifestation as a more accurate Tatari.), Unknown with Mystic Eyes of Death Perception. | Large Island level+ (The real Nanaya should be superior to his Tatari manifestations), Unknown with Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

Stamina: Superhuman (Shiki can keep fighting even in a heavily injured condition)
Range: Standard Melee Range, further by throwing his knife
Standard Equipment: His knife, Nanatsu-Yoru, and Mystic Eye Killer glasses that suppress his Mystic Eyes.
Intelligence: Above Average (Shiki is an extremely skilled assassin, though he lacks much conscious knowledge of his assassination techniques and can thus only use them subconsciously. When his alternate personality Nanaya is in control, causing him to act on pure murderous instinct. Even without this, he is a fairly skilled combatant)
Weaknesses: Shiki can't suppress his supernatural vision on his own, relying on the Mystic Eyes Killer, which will eventually be rendered obsolete over time. Shiki must get into close range to fully utilize his Mystic Eyes. Visualizing more complex concepts is very taxing mentally and can even kill him. He cannot fully use his abilities without giving in to his Nanaya instincts on the brink of death. | Likely none notable. Shiki, by the time of Melty Blood can destroy the metaphysical information of Tatari and is stated by Sion to probably be able to kill concepts beyond human comprehension | Lacks the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception | None notable | None notable
Notable Attacks / Techniques:
Nanaya Martial Arts: The Nanaya clan's assassination arts. It consists of unique space-utilization techniques that use walls and ceilings for assassination. The martial art is divided into two branches, Flash Sheath and Flash Step. Flash Sheath refers to arm techniques that allow the user to attack at extreme speeds to dispatch their target quickly. Flash Step refers to footwork that includes powerful kicks and high-speed acrobatics, making it seem like the user vanishes from the target's sight. The acrobatic moves allow the user to use walls and ceilings as footholds to catch their opponent off guard. While Shiki has only received basic training, he learned advanced techniques by observing and mimicking his father.
*Seventeen Divisions:The technique Shiki used to "kill" Arcueid. It's a blazingly fast attack that consists of multiple slashes from head to toe that allowed Shiki to cut Arcueid into seventeen pieces before she could react.
*Kyokushi Nanaya: The ultimate technique of the Nanaya clan. The method consists of the user throwing their knife straight at their target's heart while simultaneously flipping into the air above the target's head to snap their neck with their bare hands. Shiki Tohno cannot execute the technique properly and is only capable of performing an inferior version. Yet, in his dream sequence, he can flawlessly execute it.
Mystic Eyes of Death Perception: Shiki has a unique and strong supernatural ability, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, resulting from several near-death experiences. Consequently, he sees death as lines and points in almost everything, whether inanimate or animate, alive or dead. Though this talent is anchored in his eyes, Shiki could still "see" these lines suppose he became blind. The ability is always active and can only be suppressed by Shiki's spectacles, the Mystic Eyes Killers. However, Shiki's sights are constantly developing, so even these glasses will become ineffective over time.
Shiki may identify the fated destruction of the relevant part by cutting along these lines, ignoring all defenses, and using whichever weapon he employs to slice through. Injuries caused by the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception are incurable. On the other hand, a lost limb may be replaced, for example, with a prosthesis. A dismembered body may be conceptually replaced with a new one. All lines emanate from "points," representing "death," and piercing the "point" will annihilate the victim for good. Multiple points may exist in a complex, composite entity like Nrvnqsr Chaos. However, it possesses an "ultimate point" at its core that, if stabbed, would erase its existence.
The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception is extremely powerful but has drawbacks. Shiki can kill with a knife he throws from a distance, but he must get close to unleash its full potential. Furthermore, it is very taxing on the human mind to contemplate death in such detail. Particularly against the ancient and more conceptually complex entities, Shiki has to exert himself to perceive them thoroughly, and if he pushes himself too far, he may die. The Night of Wallachia is an abstract being, and it is impossible to kill it permanently. Some beings who are not bound by Earth's concept of death, such as Arcuied at full strength and the Ultimate Ones, are immune to this method of killing.
Note: Even though the Word of God says Shiki has no chance against Servants, he should be about the same speed since he has fought and won against Dead Apostles and Dead Apostle Ancestors.
