to:
The bloodshed and swiftness in which she killed him actually put a point \\\'\\\'IN\\\'\\\' the \\\"grace\\\" scale, not against it.
She\\\'s not \\\"hacking him to bits\\\". That\\\'s hyperbole. She\\\'s attacking with swiftness and precision. Then she stands reserved and poised and waits for him to make a move. That\\\'s part of the trope, too.
And that last part is flat out wrong. The trope page is completely talking about avoiding being dirtied or bloodied in battle, in other words, avoiding hits. You know, like she\\\'s doing now.
\\\'\\\'A Lady of War is almost always given an elegant weapon that emphasizes her femininity — often a bow, rapier or naginata, all weapons that have a certain choreographic element in the way they\\\'re wielded. They also allow her to avoid getting her hands dirty and usually invoke Wouldn\\\'t Hit a Girl as a result.\\\'\\\'
She also has a \\\"choreographed element\\\" in the way she wields her sword. That is, after all, the entire POINT of how she\\\'s teaching Kenpachi. The entire point to all of this is that she is teaching him a \\\'\\\'proper sword style\\\'\\\'.
