Powers & Abilities


Tōsen's Battle Data, clockwise.
Top: Offense (70), Top Right: Defense (70), Bottom Right: Agility (80),
Bottom: Kidō (90), Bottom Left: Intelligence (90), Top Left: Physical
Stamina (60). Total: 460/600.^[34]



Master Swordsmanship Specialist:
Though he has a personal philosophy that would question the need for
violence. Tōsen is highly proficient in the use of his Zanpakutō, which
is further impressive from his blind status. During his days as merely
the 5th seated officer of the 9th division, he was able to fight at a
captain's level as shown when facing Shinji Hirako (Though Shinji was
focused on halting his hollowfication process at the time).^[35]
Tōsen's swordsmanship mastery is even further empathized by his
capability of holding his own against Kenpachi Zaraki, who is most
likely the foremost swordsmanship expert in Soul Society, even if it
was only for a short time.^[36]
Flash Steps Expert:
Tōsen was fast enough to sneak up behind Grimmjow (when he attacked
Karakura Town) before he realized it. Tōsen was also able to cut off
Grimmjow's arm before he received any pain and obliterate the arm with
a mid-level Kidō before it hit the ground, a testament of his speed.^[37][38]
Kidō Expert: Tōsen has been shown to use high level Kidō spells without incantation, and he knows many obscure Kidō spells.^[39]
Garganta (黒腔（ガルガンタ): is how Hollows move to and from Hueco Mundo.
Tōsen has demonstrated the ability to use the technique. It literally
tears open the dimensional fabric separating the worlds, revealing a
tunnel of whirling, torrential energy that must be focused and
solidified to create a discernible pathway.^[40][41]
Great Spiritual Power: As the former Captain of the 9th
Division of the Gotei 13, Tōsen boasts a great amount of spiritual
energy. His skill in the use of his spiritual power is evident as he
uses his spiritual sense to "see".


Zanpakutō


Suzumushi (清虫, Cricket): In its sealed state, Suzumushi looks like a regular katana.
The crossguard is in a tear-drop shape, with the base of the drop
arcing over the top of the blade, and the point of the drop pointing
below the cutting edge. A row of several tiny tear-drop shaped holes
decorates the bottom of the curve, and a small ring, maybe 2" in
diameter, dangles off the tip of the tear-drop. The ring itself plays a
vital role in the activation of Tōsen's Bankai. It is unknown whether
this is the Zanpakutō of Tōsen's own soul or the one he took from the
grave of his friend.

• Shikai: Unlike most Zanpakutō, Suzumushi has two Shikai commands, each producing a unique automatic effect.
  

Suzumushi, Tōsen's first Shikai ability



Shikai Special Ability: Suzumushi maintains its form of a regular katana. Suzumushi's release command is "Cry" (鳴け, nake),
which has the automatic effect of projecting a high-pitched tone over a
wide area, overloading the hearing of anyone in range and knocking them
unconscious. (This comparatively humane and painless technique fits
with Tōsen's self-presentation as a proponent of justice.)^[42]
The ring tone is produced by the vibration of Suzumushi, which Tōsen
used to free his sword from the chains of Hisagi's Kazeshini.^[43]




Benihikō, Tōsen's second Shikai ability



Suzumushi Nishiki (Cricket, 2nd Movement)

• Benihikō (清虫式紅飛蝗, Crimson Flying Locusts): Suzumushi's second release command is "Smash His Limbs" (四肢を潰すよ, shishi o tsubusu yo),
  which changes Suzumushi into its Benihikō form. Suzumushi vibrates
  momentarily and, after Tōsen moves the blade around him in a circle, a
  trail appears from the sword's path. The trail turns into hundreds of
  blades that rain down on his opponents.^[44]
  

Enma Kōrogi, Tōsen's Bankai



Suzumushi Tsuishiki (Cricket Final Form)

• Bankai: Enma Kōrogi (閻魔蟋蟀, Devil Cricket): Suzumushi maintains its form of a regular katana, though without the small ring.
  

Bankai Special Ability: Tōsen holds up his sword in his
right hand, and places his left palm against the ring on his
crossguard. The ring begins to spin as it releases spiritual energy the
faster it spins the circle then grows bigger and bigger till its the
same height as Tōsen. The ring then splits into 9 large glowing rings
that encircle around Tōsen. With a slash of his sword the circles go
flying to various corners forming a circle perimeter of a large area.
Once in position they begin to generate a black void which grows in
size till it creates a large, black dome centered at Tōsen's location
and anchored to the ground with 9 rings. The dome creates a vacuum that
nullifies the senses of spiritual energy, sight, sound, and scent; what
Tōsen calls Mumyō (ignorance). The only sense they retain is that of
touch. Unlike with some Zanpakutō's, Suzumushi does not convert itself
into the massive dome that it materializes during Bankai. Instead, the
dome serves as a separate extension of Suzumushi itself, allowing Tōsen
to still wield its sealed form to be used as a weapon while inside the
dome, but cannot use its abilities. The technique's main shortcoming is
that anyone touching Suzumushi's hilt, not just Tōsen himself, is
immune to the dome's effects, so anyone able to grab Suzumushi recovers
their senses. The dome only exists as long as Tōsen wills it too or if
he happens to become seriously injured, in either circumstance the dome
shreds apart and dissipates.^[45]
