the blade master who trained the blade hashira is a stoic, constantly smiling individual that can handle situations better than most people. hidaru tends to keep to herself, and is usually drinking tea, training, or fighting demons.

although hidaru has a keen intellect, her biggest flaw is her sympathy to emotional manipulation. while she rarely shows weakness and is able to keep her composure, certain words and motives tend to bring out her empathetic side if said right. although sympathetic, hidaru can easily tell lies from truth, and liars are not shown mercy.

overrall abilities: hidaru’s steadfast and emotional prowess make her extremely powerful. she is a master, making her extremely strong, able to defeat a lowerrank and go up against an upperrank. her breathing style allows her to manipulate blades of energy and use them to decapitate limbs or transform her fingers into airblades. although powerful, hidaru is not one to start fights and prefers to use absolute defense, switching to direct attack as a last resort. keen intellect: hidaru was able to successfully predict where akaza would show up and devise her own strategy. she also has a habit of calling her student, mokuba shiori the blade hashira, kid, despite mokuba being 20.

breathing style: blade breathing. The Blade Breathing style is characterized by the user's ability to manifest reiatsu as solid blades of energy. The reiatsu in the user's body is shaped to resemble the katana, and the user can materialize blades from thin air, enhance their own weapons, or even use their fingers as weapons.

Technique: The user channels their reiatsu to form razor-sharp blades in various locations around them. They can create a field of blades to deter their enemies or focus their energy into a singular blade for a powerful strike. The key to mastering this style is control over one's reiatsu and the ability to shape it into the desired form.

first form, Reiatsu Field: The user can create a dense field of reiatsu blades around them. This field serves as both an offensive and defensive measure, slicing at incoming attacks and making it difficult for opponents to close the gap.

second form, Reiatsu Enhancement: By infusing their katanas with reiatsu, the user can significantly increase their kanatas' cutting power and durability. This enables them to cut through even the most resilient of demons.

third form, Reiatsu Blade Dance: The user can launch multiple blades of energy at their opponent, performing a deadly dance of slashes and feints. This technique requires exceptional skill and dexterity with reiatsu manipulation

fourth form, Reiatsu Fingertip: With advanced control over their reiatsu, the user can shape their index and pinky fingers into sharp, pointed blades of energy. This allows for close-quarters combat and rapid, precise strikes.

Drawback: The Blade Breathing style is highly demanding on the user's spiritual energy. Prolonged use can lead to rapid exhaustion, leaving the user vulnerable. Additionally, the user must be cautious when shaping their reiatsu into blades, as a lack of focus can result in self-inflicted injury.
