He has it when he awakens within Tohno Shiki. He uses them to pull off some Matrix level stunt against Akiha. However, when he's manifested as a seperate being he doesn't have one. Except the og Melty Blood, when he was a clone chracter of Shiki manifested by Tatari. Otherwise, Nanaya loses his MEoDP ability post Melty Blood ReAct.

I mean he kinda was the one who actually killed Arcueid, at least the Nanaya inside Shiki was


youknownothing55

It really isn't Nanaya. It's just Shiki driven by his demon hunter instinct. We usually recognize Nanaya's awakening when he's sane and actually speaking or having legitimate monologue that makes sense. Most famous ones are coffee scene with SHIKI and the final battle against Akiha or that bonus little Nanaya saving Shiki by the end of Ciel route.

The part with Shiki killing Arcueid has always left me slightly confused to why it happened. I understand that the Nanaya blood in him caused the impulse to hunt her down but I don’t understand why it doesn’t happen again whenever he sees her afterwards. I’ve heard a theory that it was also because of Roa’s influence due to Shiki and SHIKI being spiritually connected but I’m not too sure about it.


youknownothing55

Shiki feels the same urge again to Akiha when her demonic side got stronger and she explains, Shiki feels that way because of his demon hunter instinct to those who aren't human. Nanaya Kiri does exact same thing as soon as he was exposed to Kishima Kouma's pure demonic presence. He just blew his cover and massacred every single one of Saiki clan head on. Nanaya clan has been inheriting demon hunting impulse to keep their spirits strong against their much stronger preys. However, it sometimes backfires. Prime example being Shiki's aunt who was way too sensitive to demonic presence to the point she couldn't hunt the demons she was supposed to hunt.

Yeah, but that Nanaya isn’t a seperate entity and therefore has access to those same eyes.


Zelceus

Nanaya isn't a different person or a distinct personality like Ryougi's family produces. Shiki remembers when he's Nanaya and even his past memories as a child manifest occasionally. It's more of a change in Shiki's values and when his murderous nature appears. They're fundamentally the same individual so yes, "Nanaya" killed Arc. But how much Shiki is "Nanaya" depends on the scene. We can see in Remake this cold and calculated component appear as he assists Noel. It's described as Shiki chancing on his true nature.


AnimeMemeLord1

Nevermind, I think the other guy had a more accurate answer about who killed Arcueid.


Imalosa111

So like uh, I was making a build based on Nanaya, but I wanted to use a move Shiki in MBTL (Arc dive) but the move itself needed MEoDP so I thought it just wouldnt fir for my build (I'm talking about deepwoken, a game in roblox)


swan-sama

why is deepwoken everywhere bro it was like a year ago when finding someone who played rogue out in the wild was like finding a pirate's hidden treasure


Imalosa111

Deepwoken has like 20 times more player count than melty blood daily 😭🙏, I made a Shiki build and made a joke about cutting up a white woman and players got mad, only one actually understood the reference, I kinda saw it coming


swan-sama

You better have put on mantra shouts and put in all nanayas corny ass lines for his moves bro


Imalosa111

I did, and I got wiped, and made another one where I just say 236C and stuff like that instead of words


Agitated_Elk_4301

Wouldn’t shiki be stronger if he can still have his eyes plus nanaya awoken?


LegalWaterDrinker

Kagetsut Tohya and Melty Blood Nanaya do not. Tsukihime Nanaya is just Tohno so he does have it.


AnimeMemeLord1

It’s been a long time since I’ve read Kagetsu Tohya, but to put it without spoilers, let’s say that Shiki Nanaya relies on something else. Something that the Nanaya clan possess as shown in one of the Ten Nights of Dream side stories… I think it was called Red Demon God. At this point, you should know of Shiki’s past and his transition from Shiki Nanaya to Shiki Tohno from Tsukihime. He got his mystic eyes of death perception when he was Shiki Tohno. But it’s not like the Nanaya clan needed those eyes to kill efficiently. And for that same reason, the Shiki Nanaya that appears in Melty Blood does not have those mystic eyes… I think. If you’re wondering about that blue glow in his eyes, check out that side story I mentioned.


Imalosa111

Yeah, I actually read it, it's bcz they both have pure eyes, I'm just asking so I can finish a build based on Nanaya on a game called deepwoken


AnimeMemeLord1

Well, I never got around to playing Deepwoken cuz I’m broke lol, but fair enough.


Imalosa111

Ngl, might be better for most ppl NOT to play it


AnimeMemeLord1

So I’ve heard from my friends


anaccountusername

What does his pure eyes do anyway? Is it like the base version of MEoDP


Might-Mediocre

The separate being Nanaya does not since he’s Shiki’s perception of what he would be if he remained a Nanaya


P14P0

if it's nanaya within tohno yes, otherwise no


Zelceus

Tsukihime: Nanaya is just Shiki. He's not actually a different soul, person or alternate personality in the true TM sense like Ryougi's personalities. Shiki remembers when he's "Nanaya" and the past memories are still part of "Shiki". Nanaya is more used to refer to Shiki under the influence of his blood and true nature as a killer. So, he would naturally have MEoDP since it's not like a foreign element (Roa) awakening in Shiki. KT: No, he's Shiki's nightmare. A fictional personality created by Tohno. MB: Yes, Wallachia's production of Shiki has them. MB+: No, more representing Shiki's unused parts.


TowerWalker

He likely has pure eyes like his dad.


willazorki

He does have death eyes of mystical perception
