BLEACH

The world of the living is a familiar, at first glance unremarkable world, where ordinary people live, unaware of the existence of otherworldly forces. Most people just live their lives, not realizing that there is always an invisible struggle between good and evil

nearby. They are invisibly present among people and solve two key tasks: they guide the souls of the dead into the Community of souls, helping them find peace, and protect people from the hollow, evil spirits that seek to devour the living. Shinigami stand in the way of these creatures for the safety of ordinary people

Thus, the world of the living is not just a background for human life, but an arena where the fate of souls is decided every day. People live in peace, unaware that their peace is guarded by invisible guardians - Shinigami, who fulfill their duty to the Soul Community and all of

humanity Karakura - a fictional Japanese city where Ichigo Kurosaki lives. It is a typical medium-sized city: residential areas, schools, shops, parks, a hospital. Outwardly, it looks like the most ordinary provincial town, and life here flows slowly and unhurriedly

, However, behind the peaceful exterior, there is an abnormally dangerous feature: Karakura has an extremely high concentration of spiritual particles (reishi). This makes the city a magnet for Hollows, as well as for Shinigami and other spiritual entities. That is why Karakura is one of the most important cities in the world of the living and a place of constant tension in the invisible struggle

Among the key places it is worth highlighting the Karakura School, where Ichigo, Orihime, Sado and Uryu study, the Kurosaki Clinic run by Ichigo Isshin's father, the Kurosaki Temple and House, Urahara's store, which serves as a hidden laboratory and shelter, and Karakura Park, a place of meetings and battles

Karakura is closely connected to the Soul Community through the Seikaimon, the gateway between the worlds. Shinigami often visit the city to hold souls and destroy Hollows. Karakura is one of the most important cities in the world of the living.

SOUL COMMUNITY is the spirit world where people's souls go after death and where the Shinigami live. It is a strictly organized structure reminiscent of feudal Japan, divided into Rukongai, a poor neighborhood where ordinary souls live, and Seiretei, the center of the Soul Society, surrounded by a powerful wall where the Shinigami and nobles live.

At the center of Seiretei is Gotai-13, the Shinigami's main military organization of thirteen squads. The Shinigami maintain order, destroy the Hollows, guide the souls of the dead, and maintain the balance between the worlds. There is also the Central Council of 46, which is responsible for laws and judicial decisions, and other institutions.

Soul Society is connected to the world of the living through the Seikaimon Gate and special devices for moving between worlds. It has its own laws, hierarchy and traditions, and violation of the rules is strictly punished. Despite the external order, conflicts, conspiracies and riots often occur here.

As such, the Soul Community is a complex and living system where the destinies of the Shinigami, the souls of the dead, and the world of the living are intertwined, and order and balance require constant protection.

Seireitei is the main center of the Community of Souls, the center of power. It is home to the Gotai-13 headquarters, the captains' residences, Central Council 46, the Shinigami Academy, and the squad barracks. Seiretei is protected by powerful walls and multi-layered barriers that create a special spiritual defense, making it an almost impregnable fortress.

For the Shinigami, Seiretei is a sacred place, a symbol of order, law, and tradition. Life here is strictly regulated: there are its own rules, hierarchy and customs, and their violation is punished with all severity. Behind the external calm, conflicts, conspiracies and power struggles are often hidden. The architecture combines elements of traditional Japanese culture and spiritual symbolism.

Thus, Seiretei is not just the administrative center, but the heart of the entire Soul Community, where the power, power, and traditions of the Shinigami are concentrated. It is here that the most important decisions that determine the fate of the worlds are made.

UECO MUNDO is a world of hollows, a desolate and extremely dangerous territory inhabited by distorted souls who have lost their human form. It is a place of chaos, endless sands and a constant struggle for survival. Hueco Mundo is the exact opposite of the Community of Souls: if Seiretei embodies order and law, then Hueco Mundo is a realm of anarchy, where force and instinct rule.

Outwardly, it is a lifeless desert of white sand, the sky is always covered with darkness, and the air is filled with heavy energy. There is practically no vegetation and water, the only landmarks are rocks and canyons. The Hollows are engaged in a continuous struggle for existence: the weak become the prey of the strong.

A special place is occupied by Las Noches, a palace built by Aizen Sosuke, which became the center of power of the Arrancar. Thus, Hueco Mundo is a whole world living according to the cruel laws of survival, the embodiment of chaos and darkness, opposed to the ordered Community of Souls.

LAS NOCHES is a fortress and town in the heart of Hueco Mundo, created by Baraggan Luisenbarn and later rebuilt by Eisen. It is home to the Arrancar army and the Espada, an elite squad of the strongest Arrancar. It is a grandiose white stone structure with towers and palaces, in the center of which rises the main palace of Aizen. Around it are Arrancar residences, laboratories and training grounds.

Las Noches symbolizes strength and order among the hollow: if Hueco Mundo remains a world of chaos, then Las Noches is an island of discipline and hierarchy, where everyone knows his place, and disobedience is punished severely. Aizen united the scattered forces of the Hollows, transforming Las Noches into a powerful military foothold against the Soul Community. It is a symbol of a new era where chaos is giving way to an order based on fear and force.

ORDINARY PEOPLE are the vast majority of the inhabitants of the living world. They live their daily lives, go to work, study, socialize, and are completely unaware of the existence of the Shinigami, Hollows, and the Community of Souls. Their spiritual perception is limited: they do not see spirits, do not feel their presence, and cannot interact with the other world. For them, everything that happens beyond the boundaries of everyday life remains invisible and incomprehensible. Moreover, ordinary people have weak spiritual energy, which is not enough for any manifestation of spiritual abilities. This is why Shinigami and other spiritual entities are forced to hide their existence from ordinary people so as not to disturb the natural order and cause panic.

PEOPLE WITH SPIRITUAL STRENGTH is a special category that is much less common. Such people have an increased concentration of spiritual particles (reishi) and are able to perceive the spiritual world: see spirits, feel their presence, and in some cases, interact with them. The degree of this power can vary from a weak ability to notice spirits to a huge potential comparable to that of a Shinigami. A prime example is Ichigo Kurosaki, who has tremendous spiritual power, as well as his friends Orihime Inoue, Yasutora Sado, and Uryu Ishida, each of whom has developed their own unique abilities.

People with spiritual strength often become important figures in confronting empty and other threats. They can help the Shinigami, fight on their side, or go their own way. Some of them, like Uryu Ishida, belong to the ancient clans of the Quincy - hunters of the Hollow, who have their own methods of fighting. Others, like Orihime and Sado, gain strength through their closeness to Ichigo and their own spiritual awakenings.

Thus, the division of people into ordinary and those with spiritual power determines their role in the world. Ordinary people live in ignorance, and people with spiritual power find themselves in the center of events, where the fate of the world of the living and the world of spirits is decided.

ZANPAKTO is the Shinigami's spiritual sword, the materialization of his soul. Each zanpakto is unique, with its own name, character, and abilities. It develops together with the owner, reflecting his inner world, beliefs and strength of spirit. The stronger the Shinigami becomes, the deeper his zanpaktou potential is revealed. There are two main forms of zanpakto release: shikai and bankai.

SHIKAI is the first form of zanpaktō release that enhances the wearer's abilities. To activate, you need to know the name of the zanpakto and say the release command. Shikai is considered a basic skill level for a Shinigami, but even mastering it takes time, discipline, and a deep connection with one's sword. Shikai can be used by captains, lieutenants, as well as exceptionally talented Shinigami privates who have shown outstanding abilities.

BANCAY is the full form of zanpacto release. It is much stronger than the chick, increasing the wielder's strength, speed, and abilities many times over. Mastering bankai requires a long time, great effort and dangerous training. Bankai is considered a sign of true skill and a rarity even among the strongest. Bankai can be used by captains, and in rare cases, by lieutenants with exceptional talent.

SHINIGAMI are the spirits of death, guarding the balance between the world of the living and the world of souls. They destroy Hollows, guide the souls of the dead into the Community of Souls, and protect people from spiritual threats. Without them, the balance between the worlds would be threatened.

Shinigami clothing is regulated: a black Shinigami suite kimono and a white obi belt. The uniform is practical in battle, and the rank is noticeable by the details of the equipment.

PRIVATES are the basic fighters of Gothei-13: patrolling, destroying Hollows, conducting souls. They wear a standard uniform without insignia.

OFFICERS - Experienced Shinigami with a squad number on their sleeve. They command small groups, mentor newcomers, and act independently in difficult situations.

LIEUTENANTS are the right hand of the captain, wear the squad insignia and usually wield a shikai. Command operations and replace the captain in his absence.

CAPTAINS are the elite who lead thirteen squads. They wear white haori, wield a bankai, possess great spiritual power, and are responsible for the safety of soul society.

The structure of the Shinigami is strictly hierarchical: from privates to captains, everyone takes their place, ensuring order and protection of the worlds.

GOTEI-13 is the main military organization of the Soul Community, consisting of thirteen squads, each led by a captain and a lieutenant. Fighters destroy Hollows, guide souls, guard borders and carry out tasks of the Central Council 46. The organization is subordinate to the Captain-in-Chief and the Council.

Each squad has a number, specialization and traditions: some are famous for discipline, others for their combat fury, and still others for cunning. This diversity makes the Gothei-13 a powerful and flexible force.

At the head is the captain-commander-in-chief - the highest authority with great strength and strategic thinking. He leads the organization, makes the most important decisions and presents it before the Council of 46.

Squad Captains are the elite who wear white haori and wield a bankai. They command, lead by example and are responsible for the lives of their subordinates. Lieutenants are experienced officers with a shikai, capable of replacing the captain.

SQUAD 0 (ROYAL GUARD) - An elite unit of Gothei-13, standing above the rest of the units and reporting directly to the King of Souls (Reijo). His main task is to guard the palace of the Soul King, a sacred place in the heart of the Soul Community, inaccessible to ordinary Shinigami. Members of Squad 0 are the strongest warriors, whose power surpasses that of captains, and each has unique abilities.

ICHIBEI HYŌSUBE - The leader of Squad 0 and one of the most powerful Shinigami in history. He has the ability to give names, endowing objects and phenomena with power and meaning. A wise mentor, but incredibly dangerous in battle.

TENJIRO KIRINJI is responsible for shiho (speed and movement). A master of instant movement and quick attacks, one of the most elusive warriors.

SENJUMARU SHUTARA - In charge of zanpakto and swords. Possessing a deep knowledge of zanpakto and perfect sword mastery, he is able to unleash the potential of any zanpakto.

KIRINYU OETSU – Responsible for healing. He has outstanding healing abilities, is able to heal severe wounds and bring back to life those who are on the verge of death.

The headquarters of Squad 0 is the palace of the King of Souls, a majestic structure accessible only to a select few. Surrounded by powerful defenses, the palace is the center of power and order, where members of Squad 0 are on constant watch, ready to defend the shrine at the cost of their lives.

Thus, Squad 0 is the elite of the elites, the support and protection of the King of Souls. Their skill, dedication, and unique abilities make them the last line of defense of the Soul Community.

1. SPIRITUAL POWER is the basis of all Shinigami abilities: spiritual energy circulating in the body and used for techniques. The higher the reiryoku, the more powerful the Shinigami and the more complex the available techniques. It determines the power of reiatsu — the oppressive aura; High-level Shinigami can paralyze an opponent with their presence.

2. SPIRITUAL PRESSURE is the manifestation of reiryoku outwardly, an aura of spiritual power. The stronger the Shinigami, the more powerful the reiatsu: it presses physically, causes fear, paralysis, or fainting in the weak. Captains have reiatsu sensing from a distance and can affect the weather and environment

3. HAKUDA is the art of hand-to-hand combat: blows, throws, grips, blocks. It is one of the four main disciplines. Masters deliver devastating blows that break through defenses, and confront the enemy unarmed. Requires strength, speed, coordination, and an understanding of anatomy. Yoruichi Shihōin and Soi Fēng achieved incredible mastery

4. HHO is the art of movement: high-speed techniques and instantaneous movements, evasion and approach. The main techniques are:

• Shunpo – instantaneous movement over a short distance for dodging or a surprise attack
• UTSUSEMI – creating an illusory copy that confuses the enemy
• SENKAI – moving over a long distance at high speed
  Masters like Yoruichi and Soi Fon move faster than the eye and create many copies at the same time

5. KIDO – Shinigami magic, spells of destruction and binding:

• HADO (destructive) – attack and destruction: energy rays, explosions, fire, lightning. Multiple levels - from simple attacks to destroying buildings
• BAKUDO (binding) - containment and immobilization: barriers, traps, chains. From simple bindings to barriers that can withstand the attacks of captains
  , Kido requires concentration, knowledge, and spiritual strength. Masters like Aizen and Urahara use spells without commands, making attacks dangerous and unpredictable

6. REISHIS are the spiritual particles that make up the spiritual world. Shinigami manipulate them to fly, barrier, and amplify attacks, as well as manipulate environmental particles through Reishi Control

7. REGENERATION - Shinigami regenerate faster than humans, especially those trained in healing. Regeneration is slower than that of Hollows, but severe wounds heal faster than usual. The 4th Division specializes in healing, speeding up the recovery of kido and other techniques.

8. SPIRITUAL PERCEPTION - Shinigami see spirits, sense their presence, determine their level of power, and anticipate intentions. This allows you to effectively fight against Hollows and other spiritual entities.

9. ZANJUTSU – the art of mastering zanpakto: basic and advanced fencing techniques. Shinigami are trained from the first days at the Academy and improve their entire service. Masters effectively use shikai and bankai in battle, combining them with other techniques.

10. FLIGHT - Shinigami fly with the help of spiritual energy: they hover, move long distances, and engage in air combat. Requires control of reiryoku and is often combined with hoho.

11. SHELTER OF SPIRITUAL POWER - Shinigami hide reiatsu, becoming invisible to spiritual perception: they move unnoticed, set up ambushes, and avoid attention. Masters like Yoruichi and Soi Fēng completely suppress the force.

12. SPIRITUAL CONNECTION - Shinigami establish a connection with other beings: they feel presence, exchange thoughts, and transmit energy. It is especially important for lieutenants and captains coordinating squads.

13. HEAL is not the primary ability of all Shinigami, but members of the 4th Division have outstanding healing abilities, using kido, herbs, and other methods. Retsu Unohana, the captain of the 4th Division, is the greatest healer in the history of the Soul Society.

14. SEALS AND BARRIERS - Shinigami create seals and barriers for protection, containment, and isolation: guarding objects, traps, and protecting against attacks. Kido masters like Urahara and Aizen create complex, almost indestructible barriers.

The Hollows are evil spirits, the distorted souls of dead people who have not been able to find peace and have been consumed by darkness. Hollows dwell in Hueco Mundo, but often infiltrate the world of the living, hunting humans and souls to absorb their spiritual energy. They are the main enemies of the Shinigami and one of the main threats to the balance between the worlds.

ORIGIN: Hollow appears when the soul of the deceased has not been brought into the Soul Community by the Shinigami and remains in the world of the living. Over time, it is filled with despair, anger and loneliness, which leads to its distortion. Hollows lose their human appearance and memory, turning into monsters driven by the instinct to absorb spiritual energy.

APPEARANCE: Hollows look like monsters with masks on their faces and holes in their bodies. The mask is a symbol of their warped essence, and the hole is the place where the soul once was. Masks are unique and reflect personality, and holes can be located in different places on the body. The more empty it is, the more human-like its appearance becomes.

HOLLOW EVOLUTION:
GILLIAN - Huge Hollows with low intelligence, acting instinctively; a mass of fused souls.
ADUCAS — empty, developed intelligence and unique abilities; control the Gillians and act strategically.
VASTO LORDE - The highest form of Hollows with immense strength and human intelligence; They are capable of taking human form and are comparable to Shinigami captains.
ARRANCAR - Hollows, who received the power of the Shinigami with the help of Hōgioku; They possess zanpakto, use shikai and bankai, and have a human appearance. The elite of Aizen's army and one of the most dangerous opponents of the Shinigami.

HOLLOW WEAKNESSES:
MASK is a weak point; Destroying it can deal serious damage or kill a Hollow.
HOLE is a vulnerable area; Attacking it is especially effective.
SPIRITUAL INSTABILITY – The lower level voids act instinctively and are predictable.
KIDO VULNERABILITY - Some Hollows are vulnerable to certain spells against spiritual entities.

1. SOUL ABSORPTION – Hollows feed on the spiritual energy of humans and souls to satisfy hunger and become stronger. Absorption is their basic instinct.

2. SUPERHUMAN STRENGTH - Hollows are vastly superior to humans and most Shinigami: they destroy buildings, tear metal. The stronger the Hollow, the greater the power.

3. ULTRA-FAST - Move at incredible speeds: Instantly close the distance, dodge, and punch before the enemy reacts.

4. REGENERATION – quickly recover from wounds, regenerate limbs and organs. But damage to the mask or holes can be deadly.

5. HIGH REIATSU – powerful spiritual energy is felt as an oppressive aura, paralyzing the weak and causing fear. The stronger the Hollow, the more powerful the reiatsu.

6. EVOLUTION - By absorbing other Hollows and accumulating energy, they turn into Gillians, Adjucas, and Vasto Lorde. One of the most dangerous aspects of their existence.

7. UNIQUE ABILITIES – reflect individuality: control of the elements, illusions, manipulation of space. The stronger the Hollow, the more diverse the abilities.

8. FLIGHT—Some fly with spiritual energy, attack from the air, and travel quickly over long distances.

9. CAMOUFLAGE – hide the presence from spiritual perception, sneak up unnoticed and set up ambushes.

10. SPIRIT CONTROL – Some bend other spirits or people to their will, using victims as tools.

ARRANCAR are Hollows who have been empowered by the Shinigami with the help of Hōgioku. They are the elite of Aizen Sōsuke's army and one of the most dangerous opponents of the Shinigami. The Arrancar possess human appearance, intelligence, and abilities comparable to those of the captains of Gotai-13. They hold the highest position in the Hueco Mundo hierarchy and serve under Aizen in the fortress of Las Noches.

ORIGIN OF THE ARRANCAR: The Arrancar were born out of the Hogioku, a device created by Urahara that can destroy the boundary between the soul of the Shinigami and the Hollow. With the help of the hōgioku, Aizen transformed Hollows into Arrancars, granting them the power of the Shinigami. This process required tremendous spiritual energy and was only available to the strongest Hollows, such as Vasto Lorde and Adjucas.

APPEARANCE: The Arrancar appear to be humans with unusual features, as they retain fragments of the Hollow mask and a hole in their bodies. Their appearance can be very different - from almost human to frankly monstrous. Many Arrancar wear white clothing resembling uniforms and possess zanpakto-like weapons.

ARRANCAR HIERARCHY:
The Espada is an elite squad of ten of the strongest Arrancar, each with immense strength and unique abilities. Espadas are numbered from 0 to 9, where 1 is the strongest. Each member of the Espada is proficient in zanpakto and is capable of using shikai and bankai.
NUMEROS - Arrancar, not part of the Espada, but possessing considerable power. They are numbered from 11 and above.
FACTIONION - Arrancar subordinates, weaker Hollows who serve their masters.

ARRANCAR WEAKNESSES:
MASK - The fragments of the mask on the Arrancar's body remain his weak point. The destruction of the mask can cause serious damage.
HOLE - A hole in the Arrancar's body is also a vulnerable spot.
ADDICTION TO HOGIOKU - The power of the Arrankar depends a lot on the Hōgioku. Without it, they could not exist in their present form.
HIERARCHICAL INSTABILITY - A strict hierarchy of Arrancar can be a source of conflict and betrayal.

1. RESURRECCIÓN is the release of the true power of an arrancar. When activated, the Arrancar takes on a form that reflects its true Hollow nature, and greatly enhances its abilities. Resurrexion is an analogue of the Shinigami bankai, but it does not require long training, and is activated instantly. Each resurrexion is unique and reflects the personality of the Arrancar.

2. HIGH SPIRITUAL PRESSURE (REIATSU) - Arrankar possess a tremendous level of spiritual energy, comparable to that of Shinigami captains. Their reiatsu feels like an oppressive aura and can paralyze weaker opponents.

3. SUPERHUMAN STRENGTH AND SPEED - Arrancar possess physical strength and speed far superior to that of ordinary Shinigami. They are able to destroy buildings, move instantly and deal crushing blows.

4. REGENERATION - Arrancars have an increased ability to regenerate. Although their regeneration is not as fast as that of the lower level Hollows, they are able to recover from severe wounds, especially in Resurrexion.

5. UNIQUE ABILITIES - Each Arrancar has unique abilities that reflect their personality. These abilities can include controlling the elements, creating illusions, manipulating space, controlling time, and more. The stronger the Arrancar, the more varied and dangerous its abilities are.

6. ABILITY TO FLY - Many Arrancar are able to fly using spiritual energy. This makes them even more dangerous in battle.

7. HIERARCHICAL PRESSURE - Arrancar are subject to a strict hierarchy based on force. The higher the number, the stronger the arrancar. Members of the Espada have absolute authority among the rest of the Arrancar, and can punish or kill subordinates for disobedience.

8. EVOLUTION - Some Arrancars are capable of further evolution, especially under the influence of Hōgioku. This can lead to transforming into even more powerful beings, such as the top-tier VASTO LORDE, or even beings superior to the Espada.

ESPADA is an elite squad of ten of the strongest Arrancar, reporting directly to Aizen. The members are numbered from 0 to 9, each with great strength, unique abilities, and their own resurrexion. They are the highest caste of Hueco Mundo and the main striking force of Aizen's army.

ESPADA 0 - YAMMY LLARGO. The strongest and most uncontrollable member. Huge, rough and hot-tempered, with tremendous physical strength and endurance. The resurrection "Ira" turns him into a giant monster with huge fists. The embodiment of brute force, but the intellect leaves much to be desired.

ESPADA 1 - COYOTE STARRK. The strongest and most mysterious. He appears lazy and relaxed, but possesses great strength and the ability to create spirit wolves. The Los Lobos Resurrection summons wolves to attack with incredible speed and accuracy. One of the few who does not like to fight.

ESPADA 4 – ULKIORA SLATE. One of the strongest and most dangerous. He looks cold and indifferent, but has great power and controls space. The Resurrexion Muruselago creates powerful energy attacks and manipulates space. He is one of the few who is able to use the second form of resurrexion.

ESPADA 5 - NNOITORA GILGA. Cruel and bloodthirsty, a former member of the Espada, demoted. He controls five clones and creates powerful energy attacks. The Santa Teresa Resurrection transforms him into a monster with huge claws and shockwaves. One of the most aggressive and dangerous.

ESPADA 6 - GRIMMJOW JAGERJACK. A short-tempered and proud Arrancar who constantly strives to prove his strength. He has the ability to manipulate fire and create powerful fire attacks.

ESPADA 9 - AARONIERO ARRURUERI. The weakest member of the Espada, but also one of the most dangerous. He looks like a child, but is actually an empty one who has absorbed many souls. His resurrexion Glottoneria allows him to absorb spiritual energy and use the abilities of his victims. Aaroniero is one of the most insidious and dangerous members of the Espada.

QUINCY is a special kind of people with spiritual abilities, descended from ancient hunters of the Hollow. They are not Shinigami: they do not conduct souls or serve the Soul Community. Their philosophy is the complete destruction of the Hollows, not the purification of souls. This contradiction has repeatedly led to conflicts, and Quincyes have often been victims of persecution.

HISTORY: Quincy appeared centuries ago as hunters of the void. Their methods destroyed souls completely, preventing them from being reborn, upsetting the balance. This led to conflict with the Shinigami and the extermination of the Quincy. The last surviving representative of the pure family was long considered to be Uryū Ishida, until it turned out that his father Ryuken was as alive as the other survivors.

WEAKNESSES: Reishi addiction – In places with low levels of spiritual particles, strength is weakened; Vulnerability to Shinigami - Their methods of dealing with them are different from those of Soul Society. Historical persecution is almost complete extermination.

Quincy is a unique kind of people who fight against their empty methods. Their abilities are based on the manipulation of reishi, and the tragic story is one of the most dramatic pages in the world of Blitch.

STERNRITTER (STAR KNIGHTS) - Quincy's elite squad serving Yahweh directly. Each member has a unique ability granted by the King of Quincy and bears a title that reflects the essence of their power. The Sternritter are the main striking force of Vandenreich. Each of them is a living weapon, imbued with a fragment of Yahweh's power and bound to it by a bond of absolute loyalty. Their abilities are recorded in the "Font" - the seal that Yahweh burns on the soul of the chosen one, granting power and taking away part of his own.

1. REISHI MANIPULATION - Quincy collect and control spirit particles (reishi) from the environment to create weapons, armor, and techniques. The basis of all their abilities.

2. BOW & ARROW - Quincy craft bows and arrows out of reishi. Bows come in different shapes, arrows come in different properties. The accuracy and speed of fire often exceed the capabilities of the Shinigami.

3. HIRENKYAKU is a high-speed movement over short distances, similar to shunpo, but using reishi for "platforms" under your feet.

4. BLUT – invisible platforms made of reishi under your feet, allowing you to walk in the air, fly, move and dodge.

5. GIREN - powerful energy beams from reishi of different shapes and power for ranged attacks.

6. SPRENGER - Powerful explosions from Reishi for AoE attacks and heavy damage.
