Kido by themselves are powerful spells, but many times they are cast without their incantation, reducing their power but increasing the speed at which they can be cast. However, there are multiple means of using the incantation, so that a skilled Shinigami can still make use of their increased power. These methods are listed below.
{Kido Incantation Methods}
Standard Incantation: All spells come with an incantation that can vary in its intricacy based on the level of the spell. By using this incantation before speaking the spell name and number, Shinigami are able to further concentrate their spiritual powers to increase the power of their spell. This effect varies by the spell whose incantation is spoken, and the increased potency’s effect will be listed for each individual Kido. With a "2" in Mental Incantation, this can be done mentally instead of vocally.
Eishōhaki (Incantation Abandonment): Many Shinigami prefer to forgo the use of incantations in battle due to the time it takes in order to perform a full spell. Thus they are able to reduce the casting time by forgoing the chant completely, either speaking only the Kido’s name and number or, if they are skilled enough, by thinking the technique’s name through the use of mental casting. Spells cast without the incantation are reduced greatly in power, using only the user’s current Reiatsu Strength without any boost that the incantation would normally grant. With a "1" in Mental Incantation, this can be done mentally instead of vocally.
Nijū Eishō (Twofold Incantation): This is an advanced incantation technique used to confuse the opponent. By alternating phrases between two Kido, the user can prevent the prediction of which technique they are using by anyone without significant analysis abilities, simply because the incantation does not conform to any one Kido. Kido cast in this manner gain the incantation effects for both spells, but the price is that it takes a long time to do properly; one incantation takes a fair amount of time in battle, and performing two is a difficult task at best. With a "3" in Mental Incantation, this can be done mentally instead of vocally.
Kōjutsu Eishō (Spoken-After Incantation): Another advanced technique used only by those who have truly mastered the more difficult forms of incantation, the Kōjutsu Eishō allows the user to speak a spell’s incantation after casting the spell to reinforce its abilities. This grants it the same power as an incantation normally does while the spell is actually in effect, allowing the user to release the basic version as a distraction or to stall for time. During this brief moment, the user can speak the incantation and unleash the Kido’s full power. With a "3" in Mental Incantation, this can be done mentally instead of vocally.
