Bleach Zanpaku-to Guide - Sogyo No Kotowari

Zanpaku-to: A-E | F-J | K-O | P-T | U-Z
Misc: Nameless/Unknown

Name: Sogyo No Kotowari

Owner: Jushiro Ukitake

Information: A Daisho blade with red handles kept sheathed through Jushiro's waist tie at his side.

Initial release

Release Call: Every Wave Be My Shield, Every Thunder Be My Blade

Main Attribute: ??? (Speculated to be Lightning)

Information: Swiping his hand across the blade, will cause Sogyo No Kotowari to give birth to another blade. This means that Sogyo No Kotowari becomes a pair of Zanpaku-to's rather than just one and is considered the twins of Soul Society alongside Syunsui's Katen Kyokotsu. Aswell as becoming two swords, they change and become thin Javelin like weapons with a emblem crested cord connecting the two together at the handles. It's unknown as to what special ability they form other than becoming two blades, but according to the DS game, Bleach DS: Souten Ni Kakeru Unmei and the Gamecube game, Bleach: Tasogare Ni Mamieru Shinigami, Sogyo No Kotowari has the power of Lightning based attacks being able to form thunder strikes and energy ball attacks. This Lightning idea is also backed up by what is said in the Initial release call.
