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. It doesn't seem (at least to me) as a powerful bankai, it even doesn't sound more powerful than the shikai.

Remember too that a Bankai has to be between 5-10 times more powerful than a Shikai. Not necessarily. Zanka no Tachi was likely more than 5-10 times more powerful than Ryujin Jakka... However, on this thread's topic... Well, I guess one can never truly predict what it will be until we see it. (We might not even see it). But the -Oni part in his abilities names might hint to some demonic, ogre like thing..
