Special Abilities

 * When Takeru goes to use an attack a black glow runs down the blade.
 * If Takeru concetrates enough magical energy into the Kuro Kage both him and the blade become shadows for moment which allows for an open attack
 * The Kuro Kage can be pulled out of Takeru's shadow if it's separated from him for 5 minutes of more

Spells

 * Black Cyclone - Takeru uses his magical energy along with Kuro Kage's and spins around once while slcing the blade through the air. The spining motion creats a cyclone made of shadows.
 * Shadow Slash - Takeru uses his magical power along with Kuro Kage's. He slices the sword the air and it creates a blade of shadows that flies at the target.
 * Shadow Slash: Barrage - Takeru follows the same principles as the Shadow Slash except he releases much more slashes, hence the name.
 * Dark Spiral - Using his magic and the Kuro Kage's magic Takeru holds the katana pointing downwards while facing towards his opponent. He then twirls it 360 degrees causing a black funnel to shoot out of his blade and at his enemy.
 * Shadow Cutter - While using his magic and Kuro Kage's, Takeru holds the katana like he's ready to slice as an opponents attack approaches. Once it's in range Takeru intercepts it with his blade while cutting through it.
 * Black Split - Takeru stabs Kuro Kage into the ground and flows their magic through it releasing a shockwave of shadows that knocks the opponent away.
 * Shadow Secret Art Iai: Dark Abyss - Takeru combines his magic and Kuro Kage's while lunging at the opponent. He unsheathes his sword, cuts them, and the resheathes it. The strength of the attack is so powerful the the ground splits into an abyss of shadows, sucking the oppenent in while doing tremendous damage. After the damage the opponent remerges from a portal of shadows.
 * Shadow Secret Art: Shadow God - Takeru fuses his magic and Kuro Kage's while condesing it. Once it's fully condensed he fires it off as an enourmous laser of shadows that engulfseverything it its path while dealing damage to any living thing. Once the attack is done the opponent reappears from shadows. This attack drains Takeru so he uses it as a last resort.
