Moves
Gif of Toshiro using "Ice Whip"
Ice Whip: Toshiro uses his Zanpakutō, Hyorinmaru to summon a thin pillar of ice that will track the opponent that Toshiro directed to. On contact, it will create an "X" shape while freezing and damaging targets caught in it.
(Note: This tracking is similar to Kisuke's old version of Cry. This move tends to curve around your opponent alot, due to multiple variables that mostly concern the movement and vertical elevation of you compared to your opponent.)

Tips and Tricks
- Toshiro's Ice Wall can negate every damaging move in the game except for Gin's Kurose, Gon's End, Ichigo's Mugetsu, and Killua's Execute. It can even I Frame one shots such as Saitama's Serious Punch and Lancer's Gae Bolg. Use this to negate heavy hitting moves, especially Ultimates.
- Toshiro's Ice Prison can be cancelled if 20/25 damage is dealt to Toshiro before startup of Ice prison ends, so be wary about using it in the middle of a particularly heated battle.
- Ice Whip's' delayed tracking is great for combos and pressuring your opponents to block.An easy way to get damage or a guard break with Toshiro is to Ice Whip and then Freezing Dash. This makes it so that your opponent either has to block the Ice Whip and get guardbroken by the last part of Freezing Dash, or just take the Ice Whip and the last part of Freezing Dash.
Trivia
- Toshiro is one of the only 5 characters in the game who have Ice related abilities, the others being Rukia, Gray, Aokiji and Todoroki. He is also one of the only 3 characters who use ice in both their base and their awakening, the others being Aokiji, and Todoroki.
- Toshiro used to be able to have 2 Ice Traps down simultaneously, but the despawn time was nerfed at a later date so only one can exist at time per Toshiro.
- Like Rukia, Toshiro's M1s in awakening used to be red, before they were later changed to blue.
- Toshiro got buffed multiple times before he was released.
- If Freezing Dash misses, it will play the Pig's "Say3" file from Minecraft.
- This is the 2nd Minecraft sound used in the ABA, first being an Enderman teleport noise for Sōsuke Aizen.
- Toshiro and Afro Samurai are the only characters to have animations for their characters outfits.
- Toshiro's Ice Prison model does not reach down past the floor. This can be seen by using Ice Prison after a Grounded or Launching M1 Finisher.
