Well, I posted this so that I could get an idea of what people had wanted his shikai/bankai to be like. Here's my idea.
Description: [Reverse Swirl] We don't see much of Kaien's zanpaku-to. It's normal form is a regular katana, just like 95% of all the other zanpaku-to out there. The crossguard is a rectangle with a nice swirl pattern on it, though.
Shikai: Straying from the oddities of most Shikai form weapons, Nejibana instead becomes a simple chinese sword. An ornament tassle hangs from the end of the blade's hilt, which glows a seperate color whenever its ability is activated. Taking a note from Zangetsu (or giving it one, perhaps), Nejibana's ability is similar to Getsuga Tenshou. It takes it a step further, though, by allowing Kaien to choose the element of the attack. So far, though, he's only realized fire and water.
Bankai: [Cutting Typhoon Reverse Swirl] Here's where Nejibana really gets cooking. Once Kaien initiates the Bankai, his blade becomes a ninja-esque, straight-bladed sword. Best of all, Kaien handles the weapon like a pro, so there's no need for any other abilities in most cases. That isn't to say that he has none, as the Getsuga Tenshou precurser is still present.A second ability is added, in which a doppleganger is created upon the moment his blade strikes the opponent or his blade. This means that two Kaiens can attack from opposite sides at the exact same time.
Now it's you guys turn. And remember, these are made up.
