Kiyo Takamine and Zatch Bell - Skills

Skills

Kiyo's high intelligence and quick decision making makes him an excellent tactician which allowed Zatch to defeat Mamodos much stronger than Zatch. During the battle within Faudo, Kiyo gained an ability called Answer Talker (アンサートーカー, Ansa Toka?) which grants Kiyo the ability to know the answer to any question. Using the ability of Answer Talker in battle allows Kiyo to completely understand an opponent's attack, how to evade it, and how to effectively counterattack. Most of Zatch's spells causes Zatch to lose consciousness when cast. To get around this, Kiyo devised a method of reciting spells by training Zatch to look in the direction Kiyo points to.

Zatch's primary offense at first is the spell Zaker (ザケル, Zakeru?), which causes him to fire lightning from his mouth. During the course of the series, more powerful variations of Zaker are used in the order of Zakeruga (ザケルガ?), Ganreizu Zaker (ガンレイスザケル, Ganreizu Zakeru?), Teozaker (テオザケル, Teozakeru?) and Ekuseresu Zakeruga (エクセレスザケルガ, Ekuseresu Zakeruga?). Zatch's most powerful spell is Bao Zakeruga (バオウザケルガ, Baou Zakeruga?) which conjures a giant electrical dragon. He later gains varieties of "Bao Zakeruga" such as Bao Kurou Disugurugu (バオウクロウディスグルグ, Baou Kurou Disugurugu?) which conjures a giant claw Jiou Renzu Zakeruga (ジオウレンズザケルガ, Jiou Renzu Zakeruga?) which conjures a serpentine "Bao Zakeruga" which attacks by shooting its scales, and Shin Beruwan Bao Zakeruga (シンベルワンバオウザケルガ, Shin Beruwan Baou Zakeruga?), a manifestation of electricity in the form of a giant Lernaean Hydra.

Zatch also gains a wide range of versatile spells to assist in situations. Rashield (ラシルド, Rashirudo?) erects a giant shield that reflect attacks back to the source while also adding electricity to the reflected attack, Jikerdor (ジケルド, Jikerudo?) creates a ball of electricity that magnetizes anything following immediate contact, Rauzaruk (ラウザルク, Rauzaruku?) amplifies Zatch's physical attributes, Zagurzem (ザグルゼム, Zaguru Zemu?) to guide and increase the powers of Zatch's electrical spells, and Maazu Jikerdon (マアズジケルドン, Maazu Jikerudon?) generates a huge ball of electricity capable of deflecting attacks and attracting the enemy into its epicenter where they are electrocuted.

Famous quotes containing the word skills:

    I have great faith in ‘ordinary parents.’ Who has a child’s welfare more at heart than his ordinary parent? It’s been my experience that when parents are given the skills to be more helpful, not only are they able to use these skills, but they infuse them with a warmth and a style that is uniquely their own.
    Haim Ginott (20th century)

    Play for young children is not recreation activity,... It is not leisure-time activity nor escape activity.... Play is thinking time for young children. It is language time. Problem-solving time. It is memory time, planning time, investigating time. It is organization-of-ideas time, when the young child uses his mind and body and his social skills and all his powers in response to the stimuli he has met.
    James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)

    Make-believe is the avenue to much of the young child’s early understanding. He sorts out impressions and tries out ideas that are foundational to his later realistic comprehension. This private world sometimes is a quiet, solitary
    world. More often it is a noisy, busy, crowded place where language grows, and social skills develop, and where perseverance and attention-span expand.
    James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
