Stats/Permissions
Name: Takeuchi Sora
Canon: Air Gear, before his final confrontation with Kiric (carryover from CFUD) [spoiler warning]
Age: 24
Height: 5'11" when standing, but might be sitting in a wheelchair.
Basic Physical Description: A lanky young Japanese guy with messy black hair and a lazy expression that makes him almost look like he's going through the world with his eyes closed. Extremely casual, in jeans, t-shirt, sneakers, baseball cap. He also is actually wearing cosmetic contacts most of the time, because otherwise his eyes would show a distinctive cross-shaped pupil.
Abilities/Powers & Skills
Physical: A genetically-engineered human, he was created to be particularly well-suited to using Air-Trek (A-T) technology – strong, agile, fast, joints that can take a lot of punishment – which is most commonly integrated into rollerblade-like equipment. He's pretty well-balanced in terms of speed vs. brute strength, top vs. bottom. Probably more so than most A-Ters in regard to the latter, as he spent a number of years in a wheelchair due to past injuries, during which time he remained extremely athletic. But then he went and had both legs amputated above the knees and now walks around on prostheses with A-T built into the feet. Were he involved in a physical fight not involving A-T, he'd probably be around human military level of fitness/ability. Get into a fight with him that does involve A-T and he might impale you on helicopter blade.
Magical/Supernatural/Etc.: n/a
Special Skills: Sora's A-T abilities = airbending + roller derby, basically. He is extremely well-attuned to air pressure and can work that advantageously even without any equipment. But armed with his A-T, he can do all sorts of crazy extreme sports shit, like riding up walls and jumping rooftops. Oh, and has the ability to create hurricane-level winds that can tear you to pieces. Or just, like, kick you really, really damn hard.
Here are some specific tricks named in canon from his Air Gear wiki page:
And honestly, the main thing that I take from all of that is that Sora is, ironically/appropriately enough, most powerful as part of a team-up.
Arsenal/Inventory: wheelchair and the legs he walked in with

Here are some specific tricks named in canon from his Air Gear wiki page:
- Tornado: Generates a tornado powerful enough to decimate solid structures such as buildings. Wind velocities estimate 80 km/h or higher. Introduced in Trick 162.
- Moon Drop: Smashes a target with a dense sphere of hyper-pressurized air. It is powerful enough to create a single, large crater on concrete floor and incapacitate human enemies caught in the radius. First seen in Trick 224.
- BLACK BURN × SORA: Electrical Wind Laser: Sora forms a front line current of wind in front of him. After this, he and Black Burn kick through that current, and using the electrical currents sent through Sora's wind by Black Burn, it sends out a laser-like beam of wind covered in an electric stream. This move was used only in chapter 214, during the Kogarasumaru vs Organic Net battle.
- KILIK × SORA: Crystal Sand Wind: Kilik forces grains of sand in the ground to rise and Sora creates a tornado to interact with the sand to make a sand tornado. This move is used on Agito to disable him during the Inorganic Net battle.
- Air Beam : Sora fires off a beam of what seems to be compressed air. The air takes the form of a laser straight beam. It resembles the stance taken by Gabishi and the tricks have a similar form. However it may be related to the combo attack used alongside Black Burn in his Sleeping Forest days.
- SORA × NIKE: Crystal Shard Bullets: Nike uses the Gem Regalia to force up gravel to the air. Sora then follows up with his Wind Regalia and pushes them with a high debris of air, sending them flying at the target with high velocity. This attack is strong enough to pierce flesh as shown when a piece of the rocks pierced right through Aeon's hand. This trick was used in chapter 162 at the end of the fight between the Takeuchi Bros. vs Spitfire and Aeon.
- Breath of Dragonics Eighty Heads: Generates a cluster of multiple tornadoes.
- WIND × THORN: GOD CRUSHER "Gungnir": This technique combines the abilities of both the Thorn and Sky Regalia to form and shape a long, thorny, double-helical projectile, which can be fired from the Thorn Regalia at supersonic speeds. The name is also stylized as "風×荊: GOD CRUSHER "Gungnir".
- Moonstruck Numberless Grappler: The Infinity Atmosphere of the Wind Regalia, Bagram. It creates an accelerating wall of debris that flies alongside the rider and is capable of penetrating sheet metal due to its speed. As of now, Sora has not used this trick, but it is presumed that he is able to, as he had taught Ikki how to.
- Infinity Atmosphere: Bloody Wing: An alternative form of the Wing Road's Infinity Atmosphere, as well as Sora's most powerful Trick. Sora transfers the kinetic force of an opponent's strike into a powerful, adrenaline-charged counterattack. Sora accomplishes this by tensing every muscle in his body at the moment of impact. This Trick is powerful enough to destroy Sora's right mechanical leg. The stress of the action causes the blood in his body to erupt from his back in the shape of wings.
And honestly, the main thing that I take from all of that is that Sora is, ironically/appropriately enough, most powerful as part of a team-up.
