Nanami Kento Physical Stats
Nanami Kento stands at around 6 feet! While weight isn’t specified, my guess is that it can fall anywhere between 190-210lbs! Nanami Kento has many physical abilities with this jacked physique which include a various set of powers and fighting skills.
**Keep in mind, these characters are drawn and their physique is strictly dependent on art style. Even if your physical stats don’t match that of Kento, every training plan can be utilized by anyone, with any body type. Train according to your individualized fitness level**
Nanami Kento Physique Rating
In Real Superhero Training, we came up with a system when it comes to the physique analysis. We call it the attainability scale.
This system helps us discover the realistic aspects when it comes to a character's physique, and if it is truly realistic/attainable. It’s pretty straightforward, goes a little something like this:
Tier 1: Realistically achievable (Natty)
Tier 2: Giga Genetics (Natty, but maybe not as easily attainable)
Tier 3: Not natty (requires substance for maintenance)
kento Nanami’s physique is placed in the Tier 1 category.
While his physique is more “built” than others, it isn’t too over exaggerated! Nanami Kento’s physique is the blend between athletics and aesthetics.
With structured nutrition, training focused on building muscle, explosive power, and progressive overload, anyone will be able to discover gains with time and patience!
Here are some Tier 1 physiques we’ve covered at Action Hero Athletics: Red Hood, Toji Fushiguro, Ippo Makunouchi, Kento Nanami, Ghost Riley, Nathan Drake, DBS Goku, Sonic the Hedgehog, TMNT, Imai Cosmo, Nightwing and Leon Kennedy.
Kento nanami’s Nutrition & Diet:
In a real life situation, Nanami's training would have to emphasize balanced nutrition. Prioritize a diet rich in lean proteins, complex carbohydrates, healthy fats, and proper hydration. Consistency in meals, including whole foods like vegetables, fruits, and grains, fuels rigorous workouts and sustains energy levels.
**Nutritional Guidelines are about the same for every character with this body type and performance level**
kento’s Physical Abilities
Here’s what we know according to the JJK Wiki:
“Master Swordsman: Nanami mainly utilizes a blunt sword in battle and does so with incredible proficiency. Combined with his cursed technique, Nanami can cut through anything, including a blocking opponent that is using cursed energy to defend themselves. Nanami wields his blade with grace and balance, striking with extreme speed and precision with every swipe of his sword.[24]
Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant: In addition to being adept at armed combat, Nanami is an extremely capable unarmed fighter as well. His innate technique works with his fists as well as it does with his blunt sword. Nanami used this method to effortlessly overpower the curse user Haruta Shigemo. Each of Nanami's blows were incredibly devastating, a simple backhand was enough to send Shigemo flying across the room. There was never a point in the fight where Nanami was any danger fighting at close range, he delivered one bone-shattering blow after another and Shigemo would have died if not for his cursed technique.[25]
Great Tactical Intellect: Nanami's greatest assets in battle outside of his cursed technique are his astute fighting instincts and deductive reasoning skills. Both times he fought Mahito Nanami knew he was outmatched in terms of raw cursed energy, however, he survived both accounts and overwhelmed Mahito on several occasions thanks to quick thinking and masterful execution.
When Nanami was assigned Mahito's case, he was able to effectively utilize his team to track down the proper clues that eventually lead them right to Mahito. He was also able to recognize that Mahito was purposely leading them into his hideout, and decided to go alone to prevent harm from coming to the others.[26]
During their first encounter, Nanami eventually realized his cursed technique could not win against Mahito's. As a countermeasure, Nanami used the environment around them to pin Mahito down. In their second fight, Nanami quickly realized that Yuji could land attacks that actually damaged Mahito. Instantly, Nanami came up with a strategy to overwhelm Mahito together that completely worked, and if not for Mahito's sudden evolution, would have killed the special grade cursed spirit.[27] At the mercy of Mahito's Domain Expansion, Nanami was able to instantly assess his situation and what it meant for Mahito's advantage.[28]
Enhanced Durability: Nanami is incredibly durable for a human even by sorcerer standards. As previously mentioned, he was able to survive being touched by Mahito's Idle Transfiguration and continued to fight and eventually escaped with his life and body intact.[29] When Shigemo fought Nanami he attempted to cut and kick him right after. However, Nanami was unscathed from the slash and didn't move as much as an inch from the curse user's kick. Shigemo compared hitting Nanami to a stone wall and said it felt like he wasn't even hitting a person.[30] Additionally, Nanami was able to survive an endless swarm of man-eating fish shikigami for over a minute and was attacked by Jogo shortly after that. He was miraculously able to survive both and was even able to continue fighting, unlike Maki and Naobito who were completely incapacitated and near-death.[31]
Superior Precision & Technique: Nanami is an extremely technical fighter who plans on using his every move to exploit an opening in his opponent. His aim is always extremely precise, as he never misses his target's weak point when it's exposed by his cursed technique. Against stronger opponents, Nanami fights by breaking them down and creating constant weak points until they eventually fall. This same level of precision allows Nanami to evade his opponent's attacks with clever maneuvers. For example, by sticking his sword into a wall, Nanami was able to raise his legs high enough to avoid a ranged attack from Mahito.[32]”
In a Gymbro’s perspective, here is what we need to design the complete workout Plan:
Strength and Conditioning: Prioritizing muscle build for a brick wall physique
Rotational Strength: This is incredibly useful for swordsmanship, power output and plays a great role in combat
Muscular endurance for durability
Skills training: Incorporating hand eye coordination, and tactical practices in the routine would increase cognitive performance, like Kento!
