Combat Profile

Division: Twelfth Division
Rank: Captain

Combat Style: Akiko has a fighting style which includes her abilities to properly use Hakuda, Zanjutsu and Kidou. Her own personal manipulation of her physical body also allows her to be fairly proficient at Houhou which allows for a mobile and flexible use of powerful strikes which make her a great all-around fighter.

Zanpakutō

Chikaku (地殻 , Earth's Shell) is the Zanpakuto belonging to the 12th Division's Captain. In sealed from, it is a standard length katana with a black wrapped tsuka and an ovular tsuba with dark diamond shaped etchings at each of the cardinal directions.

Spoiler:


Shikai: Its release command is Kudaite (砕く, Break), and when released, Chikaku's blade is pressed downward turning into dozens more shuriken which can be controlled telekinetically or thrown physically by Akiko, multiplying at her will. These blades possess the Zanpakuto's special property and allow for a varied form of combat which fit the nature of its user.

Spoiler:


  • Shikai Special Ability: Juuryoku (重力, gravity) In Shikai Akiko's zanpakuto has the ability to passively generate a field of gravity around its core. The area of effect of this particular iteration seems to be about 80 meters in any direction around Akiko. This gravity is easily between ten and forty times normal earth gravity to be applied by dialing up gravity on the core which Akiko holds on to during battle. Gravity can also be dialed back, to hover at zero thus making everything within the space weightless, or even further allowing whatever is trapped within the space to become the center of its own gravity making it into a vacuum which crushes itself. The strategy of Chikaku comes with the ability to create the various blades which shoot off from the core mechanism. Generally these are used to set traps of various types. The blades which are controlled telekinetically, can be placed as she wishes and have their own specific gravity which is controlled by the dial she keeps at hand.


Bankai: Chikakukaidokagizume (地殻回動鈎爪, Earth's Shell Revolving Claws): In order to start up her Bankai, Akiko must first crush her Shikai blade within her hand, apparently causing the penetration of her palm which then covers her right arm in a deep black moving thing and triggers a transformation in her. This transformation causes a clawed demon hand held up by a large circle behind the woman's back. The circle seems to be the overgrown version of the original dial, with flames on the side to mark the previous spaces of dialing up or back gravity. She also grows a dragon like tail which also has weird flames on it.

Spoiler:


  • Bankai Special Ability: Chinohate (地の果て, The End of the Earth) : This Bankai's special ability is its ability to manipulate gravity for an indefinite space. The dial which is now located at the woman's back, is capable of being shifted mentally, allowing her her change the focus of who or what she is manipulating the gravity of like a scope. She can force it up from below causing spikes from the earth and changing the environment all around her. Or she can cause crushing pressure from above and smash people into the ground or force them clean across creation. Her Bankai's special ability is simple but powerful.

    • Juuryokuha (Gravitational Wave) - Is an ability that Akiko uses named only while her Bankai is active. She is able to create waves of gravity by moving her hands in various directions and control what these waves effect. In doing this she is able to act both offensively and defensively creating crushing forces out of air for her opponents while using those same forces to create her own protective barriers. By moving her fingers separately she is able to manipulate different waves of gravity, though they are restricted to whatever form of gravity manipulation she is presently using.
