I thought about my Zanpakuto for a long time now and even looked for the kanji of the invented techniques. My Zanpakuto's name would be Hiraishin which meaning lightning rod. The Zanpakuto is a thunder and lightning type Zanpakuto and it has the power to create and manipulate lighting, and form it into a weapon.

Its release command would be "chirp," referring to how electricity kinda makes a stat-icky kind of sound. Hiraishin would take the shape of an elongated katana with a slant in the blade located near the hilt.

The techniques I developed would include Kaminari Hari: Which fires lightning in the form of needles that are capable of piercing through solid structures. Chidori Ikkatsu: creates a powerful blast of lightning by converting the users spirit energy into the blade which is then fired from Hiraishin's tip. Kuroi Handan Kiba: calls for a bolt of black lightning that strikes down an opponent with tremendous force and speed. Dengeki Nagare: By converting spirit energy and releasing it all at once, Hiraishin can create a wave of electricity that is capable of shocking and paralyzing enemies bodies.

My Zanpakuto's bankai name would be Higashi Hiraishin.

It would take the form of two separate blades with small ridges located near the top of the blade and have curved handles. The blades are then able to act as a strong conductor allowing me to manipulate lightning at a far greater rate. Also due to its unique shape it grants me a further increase in speed. Its techniques consist of

Ten no Kami Kaminari: When activated it creates an intense aura of electricity that surrounds the user which can be used for both offense and defense. As it will shock anyone who comes into contact with the aura. Kaminari hana Odori: by spinning the blades at high speed, Higashi Hiraishin can generate numerous pillars of lightning that move as if they are dancing. The lightning will then surround an opponent creating an explosion in the shape of a flower.
