Description
Ex-Lieutenant of Squad 14, Shogo Fujiwara's zanpakuto, Hanshi Torayumi.

Fujiwara's zanpakuto, Hanshi Torayumi (Half-Dead Tiger Bow), is a katana with a rectangular-shaped guard, a blue handle, and a blue sheath with golden designs on it. His zanpakuto is unique as its pommel is in the shape of a right triangle that comes to a point which he sometimes uses in battle. It is released by re-sheathing the blade, holding it in front of him and speaking the command "rage". Upon doing so, the katana will glow white, the blade will shrink, and the handle will elongate. When released the blade has shifted from above his hand to below it and takes on the hook appearance that the pommel had. The handle has the design that the sheath had and now has no guard. The whole process, in a sense, reversing the blade shape. He will usually fight with his zanpakuto in a reckless manner (up until the death of Captian Ishikawa when he starts to take everything more seriously) but he also uses a skill called Reikonte (spirit hand), taught to him by Captain Sato, in which he gathers reitsu around his hand to form a small barrier therefor enabling him to fight grabing his blade instead of the hilt without injury. He is able to perform a technique called Soreya no Mouja (stray arrows of the dead) in which he builds his red reitsu around the blade and fires it in the form of multiple arrows. He is also able to further elongate the blade by adding more "fangs" but does so rarely as it weakens the power of the blade. Hanshi Torayumi is also able to take on a secondary shikai form by Fujiwara placing his free hand on the point of the blade and compressing the blade down to the size of a wakazashi while saying the command "mourn". This increases the blade's power tremendously but once he performs Soreya no Mouja in this form, the blade will return back to its normal shikai state and cannot be compressed again until another fight. With all of this under its belt Hanshi Torayumi still has one more ability and it is its "true power". Hanshi Torayumi actually gives Fujiwara the power of luck. For example, if debris falling from the sky was about to hit him in the head, he would still be hurt if he stood still. However, if he tried to avoid it, he would move perfectly to avoid each and every piece about to hit him. A power he did not learn til he was a lieutenant.

Fujiwara's bankai is Saigoshikyo Torayumi (Final Death Tiger Bow). In this state his blade and handle turn black, the blade grows to about 8 feet long, and the kanji for "The End" is engraved into the blade near the handle. Even though it is so long Fujiwara claims that the blade length represents 100% of his power under compression, meaning that it packs a mean punch. Shogo can handle his bankai with ease, despite its size, and can fire 100 times more powerful Soreya no Mouja except they are now larger in size, black in color, and more fiery in appearance.
