Powers and Abilities: Soul Physiology, Fullbringer Physiology, Shinigami Physiology and Hollow Physiology (Soul: High-Tier/Fullbringer: High-Tier/Shinigami: High-Tier/Hollow: High-Tier), Expert Swordsmanship (Ginjo is an expert in physical combat, allowing him to fight relative towards swordsman on the caliber of Ichigo Kurosaki), Enhanced Energy Manipulation and Enhanced Energy Projection (Ginjo's Fullbring, Cross of Scaffold can generate and release large blast of condensed spiritual energy from its blade), Power Absorption and Limited Power Bestowal (Cross of Scaffold's main ability is the absorption and redistribution of power. After stabbing someone with his blade, Ginjo can absorb the person's power and abilities, adding them to his own., granting him all the inherent abilities from his target, while alongside also giving Ginjo that person's previous Reiryoku as well, Ginjo can also redistribute this absorbed power to other Fullbringers, granting them increased powers and new abilities for their Fullbring), Limited Empowerment (Ginjo's emotions can drastically increase the attack potency of one of his Getsuga Tensho's but this is something that's a heavily dependent on the emotional state of Ginjo and such isn't something that's common to happen within a fight), Cosmic Awareness (Inter Dimensional - Ginjo can sense the Reiryoku and Reiatsu of Tsukishima whilst inside a separate pocket dimension created by Yukio), Limited Power Nullification (Reiryoku can null the abilities and techniques of those massively weaker than Ginjo), Limited Resistance to Extrasensory Perception when using Bringer Light (Using Bringer Light makes the user harder to sense, due to the fact it disturbs the surrounding reiatsu to a minimal degree)

Intelligence: Kūgo is a skillful swordsman, being able to hold his own against the likes of Tsukishima and Ichigo Kurosaki, having defeated the latter twice, though he lacked his Shinigami powers at the time. In addition to this, he was also able to take on the combined might of Jackie, Riruka, Giriko and Shishigawara using just his sword skills.

Weaknesses: None notable

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

• Fullbring: All objects in the Bleach universe have souls. The Fullbringers are children whose mothers were attacked by Hollows before they were born. The remnants of the Hollow's powers stayed on their mothers and were passed to the, thus making the powers they possess more similar to Hollows. It enables them to manipulate the souls in matter to assist them to perform supernatural actions such as using the ground to push themselves higher, using the souls in air to fly/walk. They can use this to strengthen their attacks, increase their speed, or for simple things like using the soul in a beverage to pull towards their mouth. Fullbringers that have a high affinity with a certain object can manifest and change the form of that object, that is their Fullbring.
• Bringer Light: The Fullbringer's equivalent of Shunpo, however, this is achieved by manipulating the soul inside everything else to enhance their movements.
• Energy Blade: Ginjo charges up energy into his blade and fires it at his opponents in a somewhat similar manner to the Getsuga Tensho.
• Fullbring Absorption: Ginjo can use his sword to absorb the Fullbring powers of others via stabbing them, which in turn, leaves no fatal wound.
  • Ability Replication: Upon absorption of one's Fullbring, he also incorporates their own Reiatsu into the attack, making it virtually identical to the original user. This allows Kūgo the ability to use any technique that was incorporated within the Fullbring.
  • Partial-Control of Invaders Must Die: As a result of exchanging powers among all of the Fullbringers as a sign of loyalty, Kūgo is able to stop Yukio from deactivating his Fullbring without his explicit orders, whilst he is in Yukio's Fullbring range.
  • Fullbring Armor: Ginjo can create a full-body armor as a defensive maneuver against strong incoming attacks.
  • Getsuga Tenshō: Kūgo is able to use Getsuga Tenshō, releasing a blast of highly condensed light purple spiritual power through his sword in the shape of a crescent moon.
• Fullbring Transference: Kūgo is capable of transferring portions of the Fullbring he has absorbed to other Fullbringers. He utilizes this by cutting those he chooses to transfer the power to.
• Enhanced Energy Blast: By gathering spiritual energy in his blade, Kūgo is able to unleash a powerful green blast, which then fires at the target. When used against Uryū, his blast was able to damage several buildings in the virtual Karakura Town.
• Bankai Energy Beam: Kūgo can charge spiritual energy through his blade and fire it in the form of a beam when he's in Bankai state.
