Break strangleholds
If you get too close to a regular Shibito, it will sometimes prefer to grab you by the neck and choke you to death instead of doing a regular attack. When one takes you into a stranglehold, rapidly move the Left Analog-stick Up and Down.
This will break the hold, and prevent you from dying.
