I thought (in retrospect, of course) that maybe only someone with blood ties to Boris/Norubu could kill him/them. This occured to me when alternate universe Toru fails to kill alternate universe Norubu and Komiko is forced to pull the plug on her brother.
Then again, I also considered that Boris the Manskinner knew Lt. Mamiya was not capable of killing another person in cold blood and Lt. Mamiya missed on purpose. But it sure felt like something prevented those bullets from hitting Boris.
