==Overview==
The Shinigami Chop (known as the Reaper Chop in the FUNimation dub) is one of Shinigami's signature moves. He strikes at his target like a regular chop, but only this has enough power to strike down even [[Asura]]. Before striking, he usually screams out "'''Shinigami Chop!'''", landing the blow on 'chop'. He uses this regularly in battle and it has proven to be a fatal blow.

This attack is also used as comical non-lethal move on numerous characters, such as Spirit and Black☆Star, where it is referred to as the '''"Direct Noggin Shinigami Chop"'''. As this is used solely in punishing people's silly antics, Shinigami refrains from using his full power, so it only causes little to no damage at all.

Shinigami Chop (死神チョップ, Shinigami Choppu) is one of Death's signature attacks.[1]

Overview

The user raises an arm and delivers a powerful, karate chop to the target. Depending on the user and strength, it can be used for disciplinary reasons or more serious intents capable of injuring higher beings such as a Kishin.[2]

Notoriety

This technique is especially well known within the students and staff in the DWMA as a punishment technique. Medusa Gorgon even once admitted to having fear being on the receiving end of the Shinigami Chop, doing what she could as a school nurse to avoid being subjected to the chop.[3] The Shinigami Chop itself has a mock-like copy in which various students in the DWMA perform. This may result from a student that displays actions another may find bothersome. It also has given inspiration for other chops used by character, replacing the foam gloves with a hand instead.[citation needed]
