In volume 5 and 4 we see that Anima has much more primitive technology, there are only a few weapons that also function as a gun and even then it's because they're just taped onto one, also the Nuckelavee heavily depended on fear, that's why its new form didn't actually give it any new abilities, it just freaked out its victims more, the reason why people never tried to kill it earlier was due to more primitive technology and the fear of it that was spread by the few people that did see it, I mean, if a large deadly group of hardened criminals are scared of it you know you should be, and in transcript it is revealed there have been a few attacks it used in the final battle that would have been fatal if they had not been dodged.
