The Tsukishima Style (Tsukishima-Ryu) is the famous Swordmanship style created by Jinbei's father Genjuurou Tsukishima. In addition to various standard battle stances and basic technique, Genjuurou also created 36 legendary techniques. The only other known practitioner of this is Jinbei himself, while having learned all its basic technique, Jinbei has only learned one of the 36 advanced technique and began to comprehend a second technique, but strongly desires to learn all the techniques and wishes to fully master this style. Jinbei's mother Kanae, has also learned at least one of these techniques from copying Genjuurou in battle. It was revealed that Genjuurou father was the one who invented the Tsukishima Style. Jinbei seems to have also taught himself many techniques in the style, whether these techniques were learned from his father or are truly self taught have yet to be seen in either adaptation.
Techniques[]
Tsukishima Style - Mount Fuji Splitter: The user performs a mighty downward slash, this attack is the most basic of all the Tsukishima Style techniques.
Tsukishima Style - Mount Fuji Strike: The user strikes using the bottom of their sword's handle for a blunt force attack, making for a very devastating blow.
Tsukishima Style - Mount Fuji Storm: The user reads the flow of the opponent's attack with their sword before knocking it back at them with a powerful gale, such as a vortex.
Tsukishima Style - Mount Fuji's Rising Dragon: The user propels themselves at their enemy using water to and strikes them with the handle of their sword. This attack is very similar to the "Mount Fuji Strike", but uses water to increase the speed and power of the strike. A variation of this technique exists were instead of the sword's handle, the user harnesses the force of the several dragon-like waterspouts, generated by swinging where there is a water source like rain.
Tsukishima Style - Mount Fuji Counter: The user counter's the opponent's attack with one of their own.
Tsukishima Style - Mount Fuji Hammer: The user performs a downward slash attack, similar to the "Mount Fuji Splitter", but instead of cutting their foe it crushes them. This technique is strong enough that, on impact, it generates a powerful shockwave capable of leaving a small crater behind in it's wake.
Tsukishima Style - Mount Fuji Meteor Drop: The user performs a forward thrust while falling downwards from a great high, followed by an over-the-shoulder swing, with such immense force that it appears to be one or more falling meteorites.
