Hoshina who is the Captain of the Sixth Division of the Defence Force,growing up—his father's scepticism of his abilities & his feeling of inferiority towards his older brother brought Soshiro to hone his swordplay and identify his whole being within the art of the blade,Soshiro is aware that times have changed and the era of swords is more than over & most members of the Defence Force look down on him because of his fighting style—despite this he feels it is his duty to wield his sword because he's spent better part of his life in training & improving his swordsmanship & it's the only way he

dual-wields—these are essentially his claws,can switch to a katana.Equipment(in battle);wears a respirator mask,wears "Weapons Number 10"—a sentient combat suit made from the dissected parts of "Monster No.10",this suit forces Soshiro to abandon his strategic ways for brute,animalistic force due to Monster No.10's constant bickering & stubborness,however in doing so—Soshiro is able to achieve 100% of the suit's potential & overwhelm his opponents with frontal-attacks—prioritising a fun challenge rather than ease of combat,the suit has light-purple scale-like armor with green
