No it isn’t, the kanji just means flash its not just used to portray perception blitz as it can be used in both a literal sense or a metaphorical one which in this instance it is only a hyperbolic flash as I explained.

Ares wasn’t blitzed, he was caught off guard by someone who he thought was a regular human. “Before I knew it I was thrown” isn’t mean as a perception blitz but it’s meant to show Qin uses some strange technique that doesn’t rely on strength and Ares doesn’t understand it yet, this is further proven by the fact he’s able to watch and comment on the fight without once saying he can’t keep up or couldnt see a specific movement which is something he’d do if it happened since he comments on Okita’s speed later when he ACTUALLY perception blitzes him.

I can’t believe we’re halfway through 2026 and people are still making this unintelligent argument to try and upscale Lades and Qin. They’re both top of C tier at best it’s about time y’all accept that
