Speaking of incorrect assumptions: ''Every physical swing and thrust are but magic gestures, the body a catalyst and the sword a medium. Armour shatters, barriers break, wards disperse. Each strike is swift, ephemeral, decisive and devastating. The entire power of a prodigious Zanjutsu specialist is unleashed with utmost refinement and precision upon the one who is considered the enemy. Defences are rent asunder, the enemy vapourised. More than that, illusions, concepts and the space itself are not safe either, for the technique transcends the physical and encroaches upon the divine. There is virtually no stopping that godlike might and to escape it is a monumental task of its own. Only a similarly accomplished mage or warrior may hope to prevail against that profound expression of unity and fury.''

The technique doesn't use Reikaku to determine the target. It's a transcendent technique that works on the basis of "Kimiko Koutako strikes Satou Shingen". Not his clone, not his illusion, not his evil moustache-twirling twin, a wooden cut-out or brass statue, but Satou Shingen. It would be one hell of a disappointing "The Greatest Achievement of an Exceptional Zanjutsu Specialist" if you could offhandedly side-step the technique like that.
