Skills:
■Shinigami Jets: This has yet to be confirmed to be an ability for Shinigami or just an item at his disposal. Either way, it has been shown to give shinigami the ability to fly.
■Change in mass/Stretch: Shinigami is also seen with the ability to change his size and shape. This is seen when he is damaged by Asura and is left with holes in him. It is also seen in his second fight in the anime with Asura when he uses numerous punches from afar, and also enlarges the palm of his left hand to block an attack from Asura.
Attacks:
Stand-alone attacks
■Shinigami Chop: Unlike his "Direct Noggin Shinigami Chop" this chop is used for battle, not punishing people's silly antics. This attack had enough power to hit Asura into the ground and cause a small crater upon impact.
■Shockwaves: Shinigami used a blast of energy to counter one of Asura's attacks. After stopping the attack, shockwaves traveled down Asura's skin scarfs and attacked him directly. Asura called this shockwaves, or he may have been referring to the nature of the attack.
■Shadow Skull Arms: Shinigami calls out four shadowy claws from his body, with black skulls at the end of them. The nature of this attack is unknown since it failed to connect. It can be assumed that the attack probably slashes or grabs an opponent. Before Shinigami used this attack, he said he would rip off Asura's skin again, suggesting this may have been the attack he used to rip off Asura's skin in the first place.
■Punch: As opposed to chopping, he can throw a straight punch. He has incredible range with this because he can extend his arms to very long distances.
Defensive abilities
■Skull Shield: Shinigami creates a shield that resembles his mask to protect himself. He can also use the shield offensively as he used it to try and crush Asura in his fight with him.
Skull Shield
■Hands: Shinigami's hands are very strong and able to deflect Asura's energy blasts. He normally does not display hands, they appear at his sides when he is attacking or defending with them. He can alter their size to make them large enough to cover his entire body. He is also able to hold up a hand behind his skull shield, strengthening it's defensive capabilities and serving as a backup defense for if it is breached.
■Hand hole: He is able to open a void in his hand which is able to swallow energy blasts. As he demonstrates this ability while wielding Spirit in the other hand, and not in the original battle, it may be that he requires a weapon partner to do this, or adequate preparation for the blast to open it, which he was not able to do when caught by surprise by Asura's first attack.
