I swear, this is the last time I'm going to attempt to write this. If it doesn't post, I don't care. I feel like there are more factors in this case. First of all, Noro was a very seasoned member of Aogiri which automatically infers that he's faced opponents much more advanced than the quinx. His over all abilities also seem to be much more impressive than Shirazu. Although he was faced againt an ukaku, which he would theoretically be at a disadvantage to, he possessed a much more impressive kagune in general. After all, he had an extremely high RC count and a Kakuja. Of course this doesn't make him invincible, but it still is a clear advantage. Shirazu, on the other hand, was a quinx. One would guess that someone who was born a ghoul would be much more experienced with their kagune than someone who had only recently gotten a transplant. It had been inferred that the quinx had only recently gotten their transplants, seeing that they had most likely just exited their beta stage and Tooru had recently just been able to show the slightest amount of control over their kagune. Until the development that was only given to him during his fight with Noro, Shirazu himself wasn't exactly super strong. Even those advancements in his kagune shouldn't have been enough to go up against Noro, but apparently they did the trick. Being honest, the fact that he was immediately able to adapt so quickly to these heightened abilities which seemed to be granted to him all at once surprised me. At the end of the day, these points should be considered when reviewing this fight. The chances that Shirazu would win were almost none, but I guess he pulled it off. Oh well.
