Tokine Yukimura Respect Thread [Unfinished]

"You still don't understand this place at all!! This place doesn't care who it gives power to!! These creatures want power and so, they want time. Here, time becomes power. They'll do anything to get more time! There's no time to give them sympathy. If you don't kill them, then they kill people. Remember that!"

Tokine is one of the main characters from the manga Kekkaishi. She is 16 years old and attends the same school as Yoshimori, the other main character and her neighbor. Tokine is a very formal girl who takes her studies both in school and her kekkaishi activities very seriously. Her family, the Yukimuras, have had a long feud with the Sumimuras as to who is the rightful defender of Karasumori, the haven of energy for ayakashi that is her school, but this doesn't stop her from having a very close working relationship and friendship with Yoshimori.

This thread will be divided into the following sections:

  • Kekkai Jutsu
  • Nenshi
  • Shikigami
  • Speed
  • Agility
  • Gear

Kekkai Jutsu

No Caption Provided

  • Here's an example of Yoshimori Sumimura destroying an ayakashi. - (Anime Episode)

And here's the author talking about the kekkai jutsu:

  • As a child, Tokine's arm is severely injured from a large ayakashi's claws but she is still able to catch him in a kekkai and metsu him. - (Ch. 01)
  • Tokine's kekkai knocks Yoshimori down as he runs into it. Not exactly an outstanding showing of strength, but it was able to stop an extremely physically fit 14 year old from running a full-on sprint. - (Ch. 02)
  • Tokine saves Yoshimori from one of Tsuchigama's stronger energy blasts. - (Ch. 02)
  • After having Hakubi pinpoint an ayakashi bug controlling these snakes, Tokine creates a small kekkai around the bug so that she destroys just the bug and not the snake it was controlling. - (Ch. 06)

Tokine's kekkai protects her from Yoki's tail:

Tokine shows speed and precision when she captures four small ayakashi one after the other:

After watching Yoshimori's older brother create three kekkai all layered around themselves in literally an instant, Tokine took to practicing this skill herself and was able to do it. She admits, though, that she doesn't have the strength to keep performing this technique for an extended period of time, something her grandmother also tells her:

However, when she is given enough time to focus, Tokine creates three kekkai around Fuzuki, one of the three ayakashi is Shirahago, and destroys her:

Tokine's kekkai keeps her rooted in place when Shirahago tries to blow her away with its wings:

Tokine has to resort to using her three-layered kekkai to protect herself from Shiragaho's feather attack:

Tokine, like Yoshimori, can make her kekkai smack someone in the side by creating her base in the air and extending it out horizontally:

This actually sent the dude halfway across the room:

Tokine uses her kekkai to ram a large shelf back at the guy who threw it at her:

Tokine's kekkai protect her from a lightning strike from Raizou's clouds:

Just like Yoshimori, Tokine can use her kekkai to let her gain an aerial advantage in combat and reach high places. Here, when Yoshimori is sitting on top of Karasumori Academy, Tokine creates a series of kekkai to go up to see him. She didn't exactly start from the ground but if she wanted to, she could have gone from the ground all the way up:

Improvisation

When Tokine is trapped in a small pit and has a large rock placed over the hole, she can't move the rock because it is too heavy and there are seals on it that prevent her from summoning a kekkai under or around it. So instead, she uses her kekkai to destroy the earth and soil next to her to create a tunnel, eventually allowing her to surface away from the rock:

When facing an ice-type ayakashi that had the power to fire icicles strong enough to pierce straight through a kekkai, Tokine coaches Yoshimori on how to deflect the icicle right back at the ayakashi:

Tokine uses her kekkai as a soft platform to catch Gen from a large fall:

Tokine can use her kekkai to practically uppercut someone:

Tokine catches Gen's foot in a kekkai, which causes him to trip and fall:

When Kokuboro attacks Karasumori, Tokine and Yoshimori are the first people to engage Gagin, one of their stronger ayakashi. He shoots a fireball at the two of them and when they catch it on Yoshimori's kekkai, Gagin fires two more at the before they can fully respond. Right before the two hit, Tokine uses her kekkai to shoot Yoshimori and herself up in the air while Yoshimori deflects the first fireball back at Gagin:

Skill

Tokine showcases her impeccable control and precision with kekkai justu by creating a large structure made out of all the same sized kekkai. On the mat she used to create it on, there was a small square that she had to make her kekkai fit into, almost like a puzzle piece, and she created the kekkai the perfect size:

After watching Yoshimori's older brother create three kekkai all layered around themselves in literally an instant, Tokine took to practicing this skill herself and was able to do it. She admits, though, that she doesn't have the strength to keep performing this technique for an extended period of time, something her grandmother also tells her:

Tokine knows that her strength isn't in sheer power like Yoshimori so she can't create nearly the same size kekkai that he can, but to make up for this she can "sharpen" them and create them very thin and rectangular. This way, they can pierce a target, like so against the large owl ayakashi Shirahago:

Tokine uses her "sharpened" kekkai to stab and weaken an ayakashi that spat out acid, knowing full well that if he was full strength he would dissolve any kekkai her or Yoshimori tried to put around him:

Tokine creates two kekkai small enough so that they are just the right size to clock Yoshimori and Gen on the head:

Tokine manages to create four kekkai at once, capturing all four of her attackers at the same time, and then manages to create one for herself to stand on. She admits to not being strong enough to destroy all of them at once though:

I'll just let this gif speak for itself, but Tokine is able to catch an ayakashi and then all of the small water droplets he tried to send off:

Tokine kills many small ayakashi by stabbing them with her thinned kekkai:

No Caption Provided

Tokine sends in a large kekkai to break Gagin's hold of Gen's foot before the former could use his fireballs to blow Gen's leg off:

Spatial Phasing

Tokine learned this technique from her grandmother, which allows her to pass through techniques without destroying or distorting that technique.

She uses this ability to phase though and escape Yoshimori'a kekkai:

Nenshi

Another skill passed onto kekkaishi, they can create a sort of energy rope out of their palms:

Shikigami

  • This is one of the essential skills that a Kekkaishi has to learn. It basically imbues pieces of paper with magic so that they can work for the user. - (Ch. 02)
  • Tokine has one of her Shikigami take the shape of a bird and has it drop off medicine for Yoshimori. - (Ch. 02)

Tokine creates a Shikigami in the form of a bird and has it patrol Karasumori because Hakubi told her that he smelled another ayakashi outside of the one her and Yoshimori were fighting. When her Shikigami was found and destroyed, she sensed it and confirmed that there was another ayakashi:

Speed

  • Tokine reacts to energy blasts fired by the ayakashi Tsuchigama. - (Ch. 02)

Tokine predicts and times where an ayakashi would run and easily catches it in her kekkai:

Tokine dodges a tree thrown at her on two occasions:

Agility

  • Tokine easy hops over a fence taller than herself and then leaps across rooftops on her way to school and trying to avoid Yoshimori. - (Ch. 05)

Tokine easily climbs to the top of a tree by jumping on its branches:

Endurance/Durability

  • Tokine states that normal people can be harmed physically and mentally from coming into contact with ayakashi or ghosts and says that kekkaishi like her and Yoshimori Sumimura are fine interacting with them. - (Ch. 03)

Gear

Smokescreen

  • Tokine keeps a small smokescreen pellet with her. - (Ch. 02)

Kunai Knife

Tokine carries at least one Kunai knife on her person:

No Caption Provided

Tokine throws her kunai and it hits a small ayakashi in the throat:

Judging from the amount she produced and was ready to throw, Tokine seems to carry about eight kunai on her person:
