As I see it it's simply the fact that Reimu hasn't been using much energy and is easily the most well rested of them all at this stage while Kirisame Familiar have burnt just about all they had on a good shot at victory using tactics and sidelining and avoiding Reimu as much as possible. And now, the plan having failed they're rather short on resources to work with and have run out of ways to keep up the divide and conquer tactics.
But yeah, it would have been refreshing to see Reimu loose.
This entire fight was incredibly lacking in actual wrestling moves. Seeing as how the seconds are knocked out, I was kinda hoping for some holds or grapples.

I think Sakuya had some nice plot armour getting out of her fight as well.
I hope Marisa doesnt give up for Nitori's sake and then saying "The weak knows when it is best to just give up against the strong" or somthing along those lines that will go against Marisa's own motto of working hard to compete against natural talent (Reimu)
Chances are she will before Shinki or anyone else can actually do anything, though anyone popping (back)up will make this fight longer which might take a week or 2 and if Red wins then the extra's will be BS

I can see it just as easily being that everyone on Kirisame Familiar has to be physically removed from the ring because they refuse to stay down. That would be great drama, I'd love to see Marisa clutching onto Reimu's leg bruised and battered in an attempt to just do anything to try to keep her down. *o*

I know Marisa is talking about Nitori losing the match, but after the discussion in the comments on the previous page, I couldn't help but read this as referring to Reimu and "tormented to death" being meant literally.
Oh god, I just had a thought. Marisa's last quote;
"...But on the contrary, she'll be tormented to death."
Did anyone else recall the rule about losing if you killed your opponent... You don't think dei shirou would do something like Nitori going until near death or something do you?

...Hmm.
*looks at Sanae's fight with Flandre, having her ribcage literally crack due to a high-powered headbutt*

I think it would be more Reimu snapping and nearly killing Nitori (ie beating on her after she is down).
There's still hope. And it begins with H. I wonder how Marisa's team will use it.
I hope the entirety of this match isn't just for ultimately showing off Muscle Spark (performed by Marisa, though Yuka could in theory perform it as well.. and it would be scary), even though Patchy's gimmick was well played and the setups were crazy and funny :D
Reimu is starting to show weakness not in her body but on her mind something that Marisa is very aware, This can be very dangerous and I am really curious about her course of action will be, should she decide to continue the fight regardless of the danger or give up to play it safe for her friends
Do remember that Nitori believes she cannot be the one to declare surrender and might be hoping for someone else to do so.

I wouldn't call it plot armor but luck as Yuugi and Rin had their own agenda for the fight. And her adjusted use of her ability is purely defensive than offensive

Nope. Not really.
You forgot Suwako just about breaking Meiling's neck, against someone just even a bit weaker, it would have killed them.
This is bad.It might look like she can still keep up with that...I'm rather tired here...Standing No Matter How Many TimesShe's struck like she's gouging into her!Seems to be something from Ashita no Joe, so further citation neededIt is deci-...Ah, it is not!Nitori is not dead yet!Alice has acted as a cushion!... and things will get nasty if you keep at it!!!And yet, Nitori still stands!Episode 767: At Full SpeedFrom the Artist's Pixiv page.This is nothing!And when you'd be better off just sleeping!!Reimu's restraint is loosening up.This is a display of a kappa's obstinacy!...but on the contrary, she'll be tormented to death.Ah, geez!!
