Equipment
Asauchi (浅打, "Shallow Hit"): After about six thousand years of extensive usage Hikari has ultimately outgrown the need for a Zanpakutō and melded with the spirit that used to dwell within. Thus, he has been left with an empty sword, an asauchi, that he continues to wield for several reasons. The sword remains his sole possession after he lost everything dear to him long ago, serves as a keepsake and a memoir of his most trusted companion. Ever the swordsmanship enthusiast, he also enjoys wielding the sword in battle, still capable of clashing with full-fledged Zanpakutō and other spiritual weapons. But there is a pragmatic cause for this as well. For with the profound power of Gainendō, Maebure is capable of exploiting the malleable template in his hands and bestow the sword with conceptual abilities as he temporarily creates, and chooses between, a selection of mock-Shikai. By default, the asauchi appears as a  with an octagonal tsuba and an ivory hilt, with a tassel of the same colour attached to the pommel. Nevertheless, it might adopt an altered form when empowered with Gainendō.
 * Mugen Senzai (無限潜在, "Limitless Potential"): It is said that asauchi are in fact the ultimate Zanpakutō, because they have the potential to become anything. While no separate spirit occupies Hikari's sword anymore, it remains a spiritual weapon bonded with him. A blank canvas. And with the ability to tap into whatever concept he wishes, Maebure may temporarily imprint the weapon with any single special ability he wishes. The chikarago of Gainendō serves as the release command that shall dictate the function of the fake Shikai from that point onward. In consequence, the asauchi can be wreathed in torrential flames, turned into solid ice or energised with crackling electricity, cast potent gusts of wind or waves of pressurised water with every swing, among many, many others. For all intents and purposes, the asauchi does become a Shikai for a period of time, and one with the power of a conceptual ability at that. The sword might be used to either channel said ability directly, or to cast empowered spells of the matching category. Needless to say, in spite of not achieving the magnitude of a Bankai this is an extremely powerful weapon owing to its astounding versatility. Whatever effect he wishes to achieve or an enemy weakness to exploit, Hikari is capable of moulding the weapon accordingly to assist him. Nevertheless, while the asauchi does boast the potential to become anything, it can be any single thing at a time only, and to change the state is to cleanse the former and impart another concept later on.
