Blood Manipulation is a newly added Cursed Technique in Kaizen on Roblox, bringing five unlockable skills that scale from long-range projectiles to devastating close-quarters finishers. It sits in a mid-to-upper price range compared to other Cursed Techniques, but notably skips the Special Core requirement — making the grind more straightforward than options like King Curses.
Quick answer: Open the Shop (red shopping cart icon on the left of your screen) or speak to Dr. Shiro Kato near the Principal's school, navigate to Permanent Cursed Techniques, and purchase Blood Manipulation for 535,750 Yen, 50 Level 2 Cores, 35 Level 1 Cores, and 70 Death Painting Raid items. Alternatively, you can buy it outright for 1,999 Robux.
Where to Find the Cursed Technique Shop
You have two ways to reach the purchase screen. The fastest is tapping the Shop button — the red shopping cart pinned to the left edge of your HUD. The second option is walking to Dr. Shiro Kato, an NPC in a lab coat, standing to the left of the Principal and his school building. Either route opens the same shop interface. Once inside, select Permanent Cursed Techniques along the top row of tabs and scroll toward the bottom of the list to find Blood Manipulation.
Blood Manipulation Cost Breakdown
| Resource | Amount Required |
|---|---|
| Yen | 535,750 |
| Level 2 Cores | 50 |
| Level 1 Cores | 35 |
| Death Painting Raid items | 70 |
| Special Cores | None |
| Robux (direct purchase) | 1,999 |
The Death Painting Raid items drop exclusively from the Death Painting Raid, which requires a minimum character level of 70 to start. If you're below that threshold, focus on leveling and stockpiling Cores first so you're ready to farm the raid as soon as you qualify.
All Blood Manipulation Skills and Mastery Levels
Blood Manipulation unlocks skills progressively as you gain Mastery by using the technique in combat. Each new ability becomes available at a specific Mastery threshold, starting from the moment you equip the Cursed Technique.
Slicing Storm is available immediately at Mastery Level 0. It fires a blood projectile in a straight line at long range, dealing heavy damage to anything in its path. Think of it as your bread-and-butter poke tool.
Piercing Blood unlocks at Mastery Level 10. It launches a volley of blood needles straight ahead with a noticeably wider area of effect than Slicing Storm, making it better for hitting groups or slightly off-center targets at range.
Blood Daggers becomes available at Mastery Level 25 and shifts the focus to melee. Your character performs a rapid series of circular blood dagger slashes, landing multiple high-damage hits on anything within close range. This is your go-to burst option when enemies close the gap.
Blood Meteors unlocks at Mastery Level 45. You summon several blood meteors that can be freely aimed and launched toward distant enemies. The damage output at range is exceptional, but there's a notable blind spot directly in front of you at melee distance — so don't rely on it when someone is already in your face.
Ground Surge rounds out the kit at Mastery Level 75. It conjures multiple balls of blood that unleash a flurry of attacks at close-to-medium range. If every ball connects to a single target, a cinematic cutscene triggers, and your character slams the enemy with a final blood attack for massive damage. It's the technique's strongest finisher when fully landed.
Kamo Clan Synergy and the Blood Gauge
Every Blood Manipulation skill partially fills a Blood Gauge. On its own, the gauge doesn't do much — but if you're running the Kamo clan, filling it completely activates Blood Transformation. This passive buff grants a significant movement speed increase, extends your Dash distance, and — most importantly — adds a flat +30% damage bonus to all Blood Manipulation skills for its duration. Kamo is far and away the strongest clan pairing for this technique.
Key Weaknesses and Stat Priorities
Blood Manipulation provides zero innate mobility boosts. Unlike some Cursed Techniques that come with built-in dashes or movement passives, you're relying entirely on your base movement and whatever your clan provides. In PvP especially, whiffing abilities can leave you exposed with no quick escape option, so accuracy matters more here than with most other techniques.
To get the most out of the kit, invest heavily in the CursedEnergy stat. A larger Cursed Energy pool lets you use skills more frequently without running dry, which is critical given that Blood Manipulation's damage output depends on consistently chaining abilities to fill the Blood Gauge and maintain pressure.
How to Confirm You Unlocked Blood Manipulation
After purchasing, Blood Manipulation will appear in your equipped Cursed Technique slot. You can verify it's active by checking your skill bar — Slicing Storm should be immediately available at Mastery Level 0. If the technique doesn't appear, re-open the Permanent Cursed Techniques tab in the shop and confirm the transaction completed. Make sure you have all four resource types in sufficient quantities before attempting the purchase, as the game won't process a partial buy.
Blood Manipulation fills a solid niche in Kaizen's Cursed Technique lineup. It trades mobility for raw damage versatility across multiple ranges, and the Kamo clan interaction pushes its ceiling considerably higher than what you'd get from the base kit alone. The Death Painting Raid grind is the main bottleneck, but once you clear that level 70 gate, the 70-item requirement is manageable with focused farming sessions.
