  • Bankai – Daiguren Hyorinmaru (Ultimate skill) – Toshiro covers his body with ice and enters Bankai state. In this state, Toshiro can fly above the ground and all his moves will be replaced by more powerful ones.
  • Hyoken Hyakkso – Toshiro channels freezing air currents, causing myriad ice flowers to bloom on the enemy’s body. This deals damage equal to 1104% of attack and consumes all Ice Blossoms. Each ice blossom consumed grants an extra 6% damage multiplier. Releasing this skill removes the bankai state.
  • Ice Wall (Technique Skill) – Toshiro instantly creates massive ice crystals and fires them forward, dealing damage equal to 105% of attack and accumulating spiritual pressure. Enemies hit by the technique are inflicted with 5 freeze points. After releasing the technique, creates an area filled with ice pillars ahead. The ice pillars explode after 2.5 seconds, dealing damage equal to 67% of attack to the enemies in the area, inflicting 5 freeze points on them, and granting spiritual pressure to Toshiro.
  • Ice Blossom (Passive skill) Toshiro charges up when releasing his basic attacks, Ice Dragon Lunge and Daiguren – Flock of Ice Pillars, his technique, Daiguren – Hyoryu Senbi, and his counterattack, Ryusenka. Charging to a certain level generates 1 Ice blossom, up to a maximum of 8. The number of Ice blossoms is displayed in cross-shaped ice crystals to the left of HP. When Toshiro releases his ultimate skill, all ice blossoms are consumed to deal 6% additional damage for each one consumed.
  • Counter – Toshiro falls back to create distance and then lunges at the enemy to counterattack, dealing damage equal to 500% of attack, inflicting 15 freeze points on them, and gaining spiritual pressure.

  • Ice Dragon Lunge (Tenso Jyurin) – Toshiro condenses water vapour into an ice dragon which hits 5 times, dealing total damage equal to 568% of attack.
