I have read that (stupid) term for so many years and never bothered to figure out what it meant to this very day, but since it is the last week before the ending of the manga I may as well at this point.

Can someone please enlighten me on what that stupid word means ? It seems to be overused a lot by a specific group of people who can't seem to properly use the English language.

Blitz are often abused by trolls.

Blitz means taking down an opponent using speed, leaving them no time to react.

It's actually German I believe. Ever heard of blitzkrieg?

It's supposed to mean like a rush or something done quick, for example a blitz in football.

Stop wanking. That's not a blitz bro. The term could also refer to something being the first attack.

Besides, Nagato couldn't even move so that's the only reason it worked.

Originally taken from the German word Blitz, which means flash or lightening. So blitzkrieg was a lightening war or a flash war (sudden quick attack).
