Thou Shalt Not Die

Thou Shalt Not Die (君死給勿,) is the ability of Akiko Yosano.

Description
Thou Shalt Not Die allows Yosano to heal all kinds of physical external injuries or any kind for herself and others with the one condition that they must have near fatal injuries. Therefore in order for her Ability to be used, the target must be injured enough to be half-dead. Thou Shalt Not Die is often used as a means to heal the injuries of the Armed Detective Agency after combat or in some cases to satisfy Yosano’s sadistic tendencies to dissect people. However, it can also be used during direct combat in which she heals herself or others as they experience injuries. In certain instances, Thou Shalt Not Die can also be used for interrogation or torture purposes in which Yosano heavily injures her opponents and heals them and repeats the process until she is satisfied or gets the information she needs. Though Thou Shalt Not Die is highly useful, there are limitations as Yosano has noted if a target is too overly dismembered or blown to bits, even her Ability won’t be able to heal them anymore. Her Ability is also unable to heal internal injuries or illnesses.


 * Thou Shalt Not Die - Times Four (君死給勿 四連,) - Yosano is able to heal four people at once.

Derivation
The ability is a reference to Kimi Shinitamō Koto Nakare, a poem by Akiko Yosano in 1904. It is a poem addressed to her younger brother that has been sent to fight in the Russo-Japanese War, and telling him not to die. It was also made into a song and was used as a mild form of anti-war protest
