You assumed, incorrectly, that Satou was anywhere near the impact zone when you fired that attack. When presented with the cover of darkness, and something akin to a flashbang, people tend to move. Somehow, from that point on, you never took it as strange that I didn't have Satou move. I never had him leave the same spot he stood in, sure he was injured, but when you can technically time-travel to cover a gap, I don't think it matters much. He didn't engage, just adopt fancy stances and glow, like maybe he wasn't really there and just happened to be made up of Reiatsu.

Actually... Going by your analogy, the cut-out would be on fire. Reikaku is a form of spiritual perception that spiritual beings rely on in battle, the more involved they get in the fight, the more they rely on Reikaku until they stop seeing with their eyes and use Reikaku on its own. Allowing them to be fooled. For all intents and purposes, to Kimiko, that was Satou, when in reality it was just his Reiatsu letting her see what she wanted to see. If you deploy a tactical nuke in Aberdeen, don't be surprised that it didn't hit Cornwall.
