Embodying his spiritual nature completely he transforms his body into a swirling mass of wind and dust with enough tangability to be seen.
---------------------
Becoming wind is an aspect that both himself and his kamaitachi partner have become accustomed to, although it would take time to practice and become better at this effect, Kazarisu still stays with him. At the same time, Ricter transforms his body into nothing more than the very air around him. However, there is a clear indication that his form is unnatural, showing an outline resembling an animal made of swirling air and dust. Not that his kamaitachi partner staying with him or riding on the wind he becomes doesn't make it any less odd.
