 * From the tip of her energy blade, Towa can unleash a powerful demonic energy wave in the form of a colossal blue-white dragon, just like her father had originally with Tōkijin, now with Tenseiga.
 * A stronger and more effective technique used by Towa, Kirinmaru was the one whom gave it the name.

Trivia
