Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Kinshara Sōkyoku Dai Jūichiban - Izayoi Bara: Rojuro strikes his opponent with the tip of his whip, and can detonate it to cause a massive explosion.

Bankai Special Ability: Rojuro can create physical illusions, and can also strike with the "Dancers" that are summoned with the Bankai activation.

• Sea Drift (海流 (シードリフト), Shī Dorifuto; Japanese for "Sea Drift"): Rose has the figures surround his opponent and spin around until they create a whirlpool of surging water.

Prometeus: Rojuro engulfs his foes with fire that emits from his Dancers.

• Ein Heldenleben (英雄の生涯 (アインヘルデンレーベン), Ain Herudenrēben; German for "A Hero's Life", Japanese for "Hero's Life"): Due to Mask preventing Kinshara Butōdan from working on him any longer by crushing his eardrums, this technique remains unseen.

Kidō: Spells casted by Shinigami with strong enough Reiryoku and Reiryoku control. Kidō is divided into mainly three categories: Hadō for attacks, Bakudō for battle support, and Kaidō for healing. The spells are ranking from 1-99 with 1 being the weaker and easier spells to cast and 99 being the most powerful and difficult to cast. Skilled users can cast Kidō without the need of an incantation; however, casting without incantation does reduce the Kidō's effectiveness less than a third of its full potential.

• Hadō #33: Sōkatsui: An explosive blue flame is fired from the caster's hand. A simple Hadō; however, the power of the caster is reflected in the explosion.

Hollowfication: The process in which a Soul attains the powers of a Hollow in order to pass the limits of their being. By gaining the power of a Hollow, one's Reiryoku increases dramatically. Only those who have control over their inner Hollow can Hollowfy manually. It manifests itself as a unique mask of different shapes and designs. Soul Reapers that can accomplish Hollowfication are known as Visoreds.

Cero: A powerful blast of concentrated spiritual energy fired in a laser like fashion that only Hollows, Arrancars, and Visoreds can use. The power, force, speed, and blast area of the Cero is dependent on the strength, spiritual power, and sometimes skill of the user.
