It's original intent was probably for it to be a huge instantaneous damaging final attack to save the user's experience points as party members flee to safety, or saved due to the ability killing the target. Unfortunately, the damage for the 2 Hour is often extremely low to be effective in defeating the target at all. This ability was later converted as a nod towards the accepted tanking role that the players gave to NIN-- but remaining on a 2 hour timer makes the ability vastly useless. Placing it on a 10 minute timer with something else added and replacing it as the 2-hour, seems more reasonable (this also in turn brings more value to the mythic weapon, Nagi).
    Since they adjusted mijin gakure it's a remarkably useful 2-hour. It allows NIN to quickly remove their weakened status and resume tanking. If SE made mijin gakure into a 10 minute ability I imagine they would remove the ability to recover from mijin with half hp and no weakened status and then mijin gakure would be completely useless.

    Why would they do this if it was a 10 minute ability? It's not as if you can abuse it-- if you die again with in 5 minutes after Mijin on a 10 minute timer, you would be out of luck for 5 minutes. This why I said 10 minutes in the first place instead of 5 (or something lower). Even a 15 or 20 minute timer is reasonable over 2 hours.
