Once controlled, the victim can perform basic motor actions, but a physical shock (like being bumped or hit) immediately breaks the hold. Activation Conditions: Shinso must address the target and the target must knowingly provide a direct verbal answer to him. Grunts of pain or responding to noises will not trigger it.Voice Limitations: The quirk requires his natural voice. It will not work through electronic devices like microphones or megaphones due to voice distortion. Complexity of Commands: Victims can only perform tasks that do not require advanced brain function. They generally cannot be forced to speak or write specific information requiring their memory (though he can force them to repeat specific phrases). Breaking the Spell: Aside from physical impact, the trance can be broken if the target has an exceptionally strong will. Multi-Target Control: Shinso can control multiple people simultaneously, but he must activate the quirk on them one at a time.
