So it looks like the plan that Tengan thought he was likely doing may only be a backup plan.

Freaking Naoya was ahead of both Nobara and Maki in the most recent popularity poll. Along with MHA, it seems only fangirls vote in these polls :negative:

At least Choso was seventh I suppose

Being able to rip off body parts and use them as bombs is a pretty gnarly power, even if they grow back.
As for Reggie I'm guessing he can turn the receipts into whatever they're for? So the receipts that turned into gasoline were receipts for gasoline. I guess the question is if he can just make his own receipts but that'd probably be considering cheating for his power.

Curse techniques haven't really had a 1:1 correlation between the shaman and their life per se. Nanami, Todo, Megumi, Nobara and a lot of others have techniques that were family inherited or seemingly arbitrary. Even in the killing game we've seen three sorcerers with hair related cursed techniques and I don't think that's because all three of them have hair fixations I think it might be some generic curse that can be granted by the culling game's conditions.

Then again, all the named Culling game participants might be along the same line as Higurama where their techniques more represent their mindset and occupations. Angel herself has a purification ability of sorts.

Nahh they represent aspects of their personality in all those scenarios except Megumi. Nobara takes pleasure in insulting people and digging at their insecurities for example, so her cursed technique is a reflection of that. Todo mentions how he was bored with his life and wanted it to be changed by someone interesting, which Boogie Woogie is a reflection of.

It's not always what hurt them or bothered them, it can also be a facet of their personality or an obsession.

Given that Cursed Techniques are passed down, it's probably more that someone's personality can be influenced by their Cursed Technique even if they were a normal person incapable of using them.

Remi's attack is definitely going to bite Megumi in the rear end later... how could it not be poisoned given her scorpion theme. Maybe it's effect is something different though? Seeing how she's so dependent on others, maybe her recent trauma evolved her cursed technique to some sort of servent-mind control effect or something

Maybe domains are more of a reflection of a person's life history/personality than their cursed technique since they're supposed to be the physical manifestation of the caster's inner self unto reality. That doesn't really explain inherited techniques and domains though. Gege will probably reveal more about their true nature once we encounter some ancient sorcerers!

This guys cursed technique has to be related to bombing as a comedian. Maybe he can absorb and stockpile the negative emotions of others as cursed energy from all his jokes falling flat. He's a cringe sponge lol
