Kimagure (Pronounced: Keema-goo-ray) is a fictional mystical power that was used by the mentor of Elektra to bring her back from the dead after she was killed by Bullseye in the movie Daredevil. Her mentor, Stick, was the leader of a group of ninjas called the Chaste, who took in a nearly-insane Elektra and schooled her in The Way. Note that The Way is, by contrast, not fictional, and is instead a well-respected Chinese form of mysticism. It is also possible to use this term in a general sense of spiritual practice, but even then, it tends to evoke a relationship with Tao.
A true master of Kimagure can foretell the future, or even raise the dead.
Was also the force that Stick, Electra's master possessed in the movie Elektra. Elektra herself had never finished her training by Stick yet was able to see enough of the future to keep herself alive. In the end of the movie Elektra, Elektra was able to bring Abby Miller back to life.
