 * Handicapped Badass: Manages to stop Tsuruume's spear thrust with one arm, and ward off the Inugami at the same time.

 * Missed the Call: Originally possessed the power of the, however Teiten found out and wrote him into Heaven's Net before he could use it.
 * Mr. Exposition: Tends to do an awful lot of expositing, though it's justified because someone needs to explain what's going on to Toki. Lampshaded with 'Shinonome-sensei's Fun Corner!' where Kon randomly pops up during a fight scene to explain to the readers how a matchlock gun works.
 * Mr. Fanservice: Primary source of Fan Service in the series. Heck, just look at the picture. He's practically doing a strip tease.

Then she pulls a flying kick on Kon's head for sitting on Toki (note: manga only) and once again makes a flying kick to Kon's head because, well, he's being an idiot and picking fights. If it involves Toki in danger or Kon being stupid, assume that Kuchiha's about to come in.

 * : Forced to cut off her after a demon got hold of it in a fight.
 * Locked Out of the Loop: Her frustration at this is eventually what leads her to
