I absolutely love kido! My fingers tingle every time I use it. In class I was the first one to destroy the targets. I got it on my first try! Maybe Sensei was right. Maybe I have lots of potential for kido.
There is so much to learn about kido, so many spells, different techniques, the development of each. Kendo is too... straightforward. You swing the sword. Step here, dodge there, parry, stab. Yes there is channeling of reiatsu into your blade and cooperating with it but it's not as nearly complex as kido. The giant black circle for each incantation, the light, sounds and vabrating sensations. I like how even if I have no blade, my hands are here. My kido can protect me.
Plus there are so many books in the library devoted to kido. I just found one today that described how to do the spells without the lengthy incantations. I've already read part of it. Once I finish reading it, I'll start practicing. One day, I'll be able to do incantationless kido. Maybe I can even forgo the spell type and number.
Maybe I'll go to the Kido Corp after I finish here at the Academy. They are experts at kido. I want to be an expert too. But I'm fairly sure the voice inside would be dissapointed at that. And I want to be good at more than just kido. I haven't learned his name yet. He's a very nice man.
