Can someone please explain to me why did she put snow into her mouth before shooting the witch in the First chapter?
I'm only asking that because that's like the third time I've seen an anime character doing so while trying to ambush someone in a snowfield...
A classic example was in Rurouni Kenshin when an assassin tried to kill Kenshin Himura in a snow-filled forest. Everytime he attacked him by surprise, the assassin would grab a handfull of snow and put it in his mouth before attacking again.
Why though? Is It somekind of a Lucky charm or a tatic to calm the nerves or there is actually a pratical reason behind It?
