His method of attacking is by exposing people's happiness and making it grow; he attaches a semi-invisible balloon by a person's neck to act as a container for their happiness, sending them into a daze and, if Touya wishes it so, makes them able to infect others the same way. The balloon then grows larger as the person experiences more happiness, and eventually pops, disclosing a hideous beast that devours the person in question. Touya is also able to levitate and teleport in balloon form, and when he speaks his voice sounds like it's been put through a sound distorter.

One of Umehara’s shikabane hime is Fresh, who is as much an otaku as Umehara himself, although the two can have even more passionate arguments than normal Makina and otaku Keisei would have had over conflicts on two-dimensional vs. three-dimensional or doujinshi vs. figurines. In fact, Fresh is a foreigner who had died in a plane accident on the way to Akihabara: somehow the thought of an otaku shikabane rampaging around Akihabara in search of anime goods is just too funny. The other shikabane hime of Umehara is Touma, who is away on a vacation of sorts and seems to strike fear in her contract monk. Fresh is the unknown female that was peeking outside Makina’s cave, and she has brought news of Makina.
