Being the No. 1 Attacker[1][2] and Solo Combatant[3][4], Tachikawa is one of the strongest agents currently in Border. This is shown when he effortlessly cut an Ilgar in self-destruct mode apart using Double Senkū[5] which impressed Yūma[6], while Kitora, a seasoned A-rank Ace struggled to take down a self-destructing Ilgar.[7] More proof of his strength is that he was the agent who had killed the most Rabbits on his own (eleven)[8][9] despite Replica predicting that a lone A-rank agent would have trouble with just one.[10] Another impressive achievement is his ability to fight on equal ground with a Black Trigger-wielding-Jin with minor help for most of their fight[11][12], before losing to the latter's Side Effect.[13] His dual-wielding Kogetsu style was passed down to him from Shinoda.[14] Usami stated that Tachikawa is the superior swordsman between Jin and him[15], although she also noted that their matches have been tied since the latter began using Scorpion.[15] Further proof of his skill is offered by his solo matches against Hyuse. Although the latter had been even with the No. 6 Attacker Ikoma[16], Tachikawa single-handedly defeated him five times out of six[3], scoring the last win by casually cutting Hyuse twice without his opponent being able to react.[3] After their match, Hyuse commented that a swordsman of Tachikawa's skill is not common, even in Aftokrator.[2]
While he prefers to fight head-on, he can also be analytical, as demonstrated during his commentary.[17] Additionally, he was mentored by Tsukimi when it comes to strategies.[4][18] It should also be noted that he has taken up a commanding role before[19], and has been said to have a talent for command.[20]

Daisuke Ashihara: Q: What is the relationship between Tsukimi and Tachikawa? (Tachikawa's birthday comes earlier so he's older, isn't he)?
A: Tsukimi is Tachikawa's childhood friend and mentor when it comes to strategy. It goes Azuma, Tsukimi (and many other pupils) and then Tachikawa.

Daisuke Ashihara: Q: Does "exclusive optionals" not count in the only two triggers at a time limit?
A: They don't. Exclusive Optionals, like Kogetsu's exclusive "Senkū", are equipped on the same side of the slots as Kogetsu, and only switched ON when in use (the trion consumed is only what the exclusive option used). Dual-wielding Kogetsu + (Senkū x 2) for a "Double Senkū Kogetsu" is also possible.

Daisuke Ashihara: Q: When Tachikawa destroyed the Ilgar, did he teleport or jump from the roof?
A: He probably used an Optional Trigger called Grasshopper. Midorikawa uses it in this volume.
