Looks

Mangetsu has relatively long, light-coloured hair and pointed, shark-like teeth - the latter trait which all known members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist possess. He wears an outfit very similar to his brother's, which consists of a dark, sleeveless shirt, light-coloured pants and striped leg-warmers typical of his village. Like his brother, he carries a water bottle attached to a belt around his waist and wears bandages around his neck - another trait shared by the seven swordsmen - and the standard Kirigakure forehead protector. Overall, Mangetsu and Suigetsu bear great resemblance to one another.

Background Info

History Mangetsu Hōzuki (鬼灯満月, Hōzuki Mangetsu), reputed as the "Second Coming of the Demon" (鬼人の再来, Kijin no Sairai), was a shinobi from Kirigakure's Hōzuki clan. He was also a member of the previous generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. Both Mangetsu and Suigetsu trained with the intention of becoming members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist together. This dream acted as their motivation for them both to complete cruel missions day by day. Mangetsu eventually succeeded in becoming a member of the Seven Swordsmen, mastering all seven of the swords before his death. His premature death seemingly demotivated Suigetsu. Shinobi World War Arc Amidst the battle with the Third Division, the reincarnated previous generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are summoned by Pakura and Gari, under Kabuto Yakushi's instruction, with the intention of overwhelming the opposition. Amongst their number is Mangetsu, who after being futilely bombarded by various techniques, retrieves four of the swordsmen's blades from within a scroll in his possession. Entering the fray whilst concealed by a thick mist, Mangetsu begins a silent massacre without a weapon, using just his Hydrification Technique to kill his adversaries. With Zabuza Momochi's defeat, the mist clears, exposing Mangetsu to the enemy. By the time Kakashi Hatake and Might Guy departed for Naruto Uzumaki's location the following day, Mangetsu had been sealed by the Third Division. Later, with the release of the Impure World Reincarnation technique, a light of sorts encased Mangetsu's sealed body as the technique was dispelled and his soul was returned to the afterlife.

Others

Abilities As one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Mangetsu was one of the most powerful shinobi produced within Kirigakure. Mangetsu's generation of swordsmen was even noted to be the strongest in the village's history. Hōzuki Clan Techniques and Nature Transformation As a member of the Hōzuki clan, Mangetsu is proficient in the use of Water Release nature manipulation and can use his clan's main secret technique to liquefy his body at will. It can also be assumed that he is also versed in his clan's other secret techniques that revolve around the use of the Hydrification Technique. Hōzuki's Abilities The members of this clan specialise in turning their bodies into a liquid form using the Hydrification Technique. This ability allows them to alter their body in various ways such as turning their body completely water that can nullify physical attacks from projectile weapons and taijutsu. The technique itself allows them to freely move around and escape certain techniques if caught in a bind. however the only way to contain a user of the hydrification technique is to lock them up within an air tight container and preventing them from escaping through flowing like water. When using the Hydrification technique the user becomes more vulnerable to lightning based techniques and as such adds a +10 damage to the lightning technique if made contact with the user. Members of the clan can also via the hydrification technique, releases a single droplet of water at the intended enemy with a tremendous amount of force, from the finger-tip of one of their index fingers, after firstly shaping the respective hand in such a manner that it resembles a gun. Kenjutsu Mangetsu was a very gifted swordsman, having been accepted into the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. According to his younger brother, Suigetsu, he was called the "Second Coming of the Demon" (鬼人の再来, Kijin no Sairai), which so happens to be the same nickname that Suigetsu himself shares. Silent Killing Mangetsu was also capable of using Silent Killing, as seen when fighting the Third Division of the Allied Shinobi Forces while under the effect of Zabuza Momochi's Hiding in Mist Technique.

Weapon(s)

Hiramekarei The blade, and especially the two holes at the tip of the blade, are capable of emitting chakra on command, which can then be formed into various weapons, including a hammer or a longer sword. The size of the resulting weapon appears to depend upon the amount of chakra stored up beforehand, meaning a larger quantity will be met with a similar increase in the weapon's ultimate size. However, regardless of the weapon's dimensions, the emission and subsequent formation of the chakra always occurs with astounding speed. Choujuro was able to create an extremely wide sword, which was even long enough to cut Zetsu instantly in half who was standing around 8 meters away from him. The chakra emitted from the two holes work like booster jets increasing the speed and destructive force of the sword. Basic ninja weapons Shuriken, Kunai, Smoke bombs, Explosive tags, etc

Trivia

Mangetsu (満月) means "full moon", and Hōzuki (鬼灯; Literally meaning "demon lantern") is the Japanese word for the "chinese lantern" or "winter cherry", a fruit which resemble Chinese paper lanterns; like all members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, his surname is derived from a type of produce. It is likely that Mangetsu Hōzuki might have been the previous owner of the Hiramekarei since he was one of the previous generation of Seven Swordsman but was not seen with a sword like the other revived swordsmen, as it was in Chōjūrō's possession. This is also seen with Fuguki Suikazan, who was the previous owner of Samehada, and his sword is currently in the possession of Killer B.
