If Kubo goes the philosophical route, then his Shikai might represent the fun, light-hearted side of the world(children games), while his Bankai might represent the terror and darkness of the world. His attitude could change and be more serious and blood-thirsty, maybe be able to summon Demons to attack his opponents, and his reiatsu can cause fear and terror.
