WELL I MEAN, Yam's got some pretty badass protecting capabilities, so he can certainly help keep his best friend from getting injured if he needs to. At the cost of hurting himself in some cases, but that's what healing is for right.

But also awakening shenanigans is a thing I am down for because oblivious baseball nerd suddenly becoming recalling he is, indeed, a badass swordsman is something I'm looking forward to.
