Armor Takizawa had an unfinished form of a kakuja at initially. His kakuja took the form of a half mask concealing his face and a gigantic sword protruding from each shoulder. Its use greatly weakened his mental condition, forcing him to babble gibberish and self-harm. His kakuja developed during the events of Rushima and while battling Tatara. His mask takes the shape of an owl's face, and despite his frenzied fighting style, he is calmer and more methodical. He no longer rambles incoherently, considers his movements, defeats Tomoe and Tatara, and regains his calm to chat with Houji and the CCG.
