Technique Name:[Shidensen] | [Purple Lightning Flash]
Technique's Label: Personal]
Technique Prerequisites: [Thought by Tsuki]
Rank: [C]
Type: [Kenjutsu]
Elemental Nature: [N/A]
Description:A technique that uses the fall of your body through the center of gravity to give you incredible acceleration and speed. Allowing for an attack so fast that most can't keep up with its unbelievably high speed. The sword is usually brought forth from the bottom of the body, using the acceleration to not only power the speed of the attack but also give it greater cutting power. Being a linear attack, it can be perceived and dodged easily by those familiar with the technique.

Technique Name:[Narukami] | [Rumbling God]
Technique's Label: Personal]
Technique Prerequisites: [Thought by Tsuki]
Rank: B
Type: [Kenjutsu]
Elemental Nature: [N/A]
Description:A technique that uses three steps to place an opposition in range. It is actually slower than the Shidensen as its acceleration is much shorter. Falling forward towards the opponent as if accelerating towards them, the person moves quickly into their space. From then, the user then places one foot over the other with great speed in order to move to either the right or the left side, the user seems unbalanced while doing this. With the drastic change in direction seemingly disappearing from the opponents eyesight, he quickly places his other foot forward resulting in the user seemingly falling forward with an intense acceleration and powerful cutting force from the added weight of the users body.
The speed and force of the technique is greater at that one moment of acceleration than Shidensen and is thus the most powerful skill of the Lightning Kata. The weakness of it is that if not done correctly it could result in death as the opponent could very well mount their own severe counter attack. Also, those who have seen the technique before could mount a counter measure and try to stay out of the users range for the technique though this could work to the users own advantage.

Technique Name:[Hibashira] | [Pillar of Fire]
Technique's Label: Personal]
Technique Prerequisites: [Thought by Tsuki]
Rank: [C]
Type: [Kenjutsu]
Elemental Nature: [N/A]
Description:A technique where you flick the elbow and wrist with the flow of the blade after holding the blade towards the other side of which you wish to strike. Forward the sword comes with great force, in which the user attacks with a vertical blow placing all the power on the tip of the blade.. This technique has enough power to easily cut through weak metals and steel as it increases the force of the blow far greater than normal and depending on its users it can cut through much harder materials than even that.
The weakness of this technique is that it can only come from a downward arc from the top of an arc though the trajectory can be changed, this aspect can't be changed making it easily dodged. The technique is more powerful than Gurensen because it is being done from a downward motion placing all the weight in the strike.

Technique Name:[Gekirin] | [Imperial Wrath]
Technique's Label: Personal]
Technique Prerequisites: [Thought by Tsuki]
Rank: [D]
Type: [Kenjutsu]
Elemental Nature: [N/A]
Description:A technique where you quickly change the moment and trajectory of your slash. First you attack with one strike from your sword, but quickly change the sword strike from mid-slash to your other hand on the opponents less defended area. The change is nearly instant, but must have great timing and calculative knowledge to be done effectively.
The weakness of this technique is that due to the sword strike being a mid-air transition slash it is weaker than a full on slash thus if defended correctly it becomes a useless strike. Also the sword can be knocked away if not caught in mid-air in time by the user or the opponent has reflexes greater than or rivaling that of the user.

Technique Name:[Kagenui] | [Shadow Stitch]
Technique's Label: Personal]
Technique Prerequisites: [Thought by Tsuki]
Rank: [D]
Type: [Kenjutsu]
Elemental Nature: [N/A]
Description:A technique that has no real form. It uses the relaxed muscles in order to dodge an attack. By way of these relaxed muscles, the user floats around the attack an opponent uses, and instead tries to counter with their own maneuver right when they try to pull back from the strike. This technique is incredibly helpful towards using an opponents own strike against them due to their full readiness of using the strike thus allowing for an easy opening.
The weakness of this technique is that the timing and movements must be coordinated skillfully and the relaxed muscles can still be hit only slipping past the opponents defenses in order to gain a better advantage and is not a "dodge-all" skill.
