» Upgrading: Tier and Zanjutsu and Kido, Zanjutsu to Advanced if Possible and Kido to Elite.


Enhancement Kido: This is a technique further obtained from Captain Unohana. By training and understanding it Takehiko figured out to do it. But decided to add something special to it as his personal space. Takehiko is can cast it and control the level. This means he can pick what level of Enhancement he gains. By selecting Kido Levels he can perform. he can increase his physical potential by that much. This is seen by how his body glows when using it. A glimmer is seen when he activates anything above twenty. On the lower end from 5-10, he is only circulating his blood flow quicker. Takehiko uses this most often to enhance his Swordsmanship and Flashstep Prowess. As his Kido style already has something that affects Kido. This Physical Enhancement Kido burns energy as one would expect but requires no incantation or posture. Takehiko's managed to forgo those by creating a form for him.. This provides him with multiple and longer usage of the weapon. By increasing his blood production rate. It must be noted that he must be capable of using the Kido number. Meaning if his skill doesn't meet the requirement. It is impossible to do so. Thus concludes one of his more simple yet effective Kido techniques. Each enhancement lasts three posts. With only one enhancement at a time. This has a three post-Cool Down after he's used it.

Blood Kido: Being unable to rely on the power that Akuma gave him. Takehiko began to realize he could both taint and empower his Kido. By using his blood as the catalyst. Though this is a type of sacrificial Kido and requires a price to be used. The user needing to spend Blood and energy to create powerful techniques. What happens to the Kido when influenced by this style of Kido is an increase in potency. By decent amount making the spells more effective in the long run. Though Takehiko's only begun experimenting with this and another. He's been focused on developing his skills further. Defending others requires him to come up with a difference-maker. he discovered.

So how this works to clear up poor writing. Is that due to Takehiko's Zanpakuto power he is able to channel Kido through it? This consumes blood depending on the level of Kido. This means sacrifice is required in order to use this in any function. Coming out to the price of Blood.



» Why:


Info: This thread was Takehiko's first realization in an attempt to trust Akuma. The two came together through this deception became clearer later. It must be noted that while a social thread and recovery thread. It made Takehiko have some hope for the further in any case. And try furthering the Hollow skills he gained.

1:Anger is a Frame of Mind

Info: Beginning his training with the ruthless Captain Shinryu. Takehiko got a crash course in what he did wrong. Making mistakes he'd made a thousand times before.

Trying to find something to care about when facing Keiko but unable to do so. This would later help him reclaim his emotions he'd buried under his guilt.

8: Back to School


Info: Returning finally to train with Captain Shinryu again. Takehiko began learning and pushing himself hard once more. At first, there were difficulties but his Hoho had gained much greater prowess here. Studying and developing beneath the watchful gaze of Captain Shinryu. This thread also lets him discover the important thing he missed. That the spirit within him was enough. That his Zanpakuto could fill any void he just had to let her. Thus improving his Zanjutsu skills and growing further. Trying to push his limits as the time wore on. Getting more used to his Shikai from this training and movement in general.

9: Fragments of the Past


Info: A display of him using his healing skills to rescue his cousin. Though he considers it a failure himself, he does notice problems after the fact and quickly adapts to save her.

Developing them further and providing his inspiration to a previously mentioned skill. That is largely done through the stage Captain Unohana set.

15:The duo of the Second Private Takehiko

Info: While Takehiko did marvel at the skills and lectures he was able to take. This finished out his studies within the Academy. Allowing him to accomplish high scores unlike he'd done prior. Becoming one of the better students they'd had; Though it took him a second attempt to do so. Even tinkering with minor inventions.

16:A Scientist is born

Info: A simple thread where Takehiko much like his Aunt attempted to mend things. Going to the family of Kaien Shiba or his brother especially to do his best. Though at first left shunned with his efforts. He made it clear that his peers were important to him. Enough to put everything on the line for them.
