Repetitious Zanjutsu was a concept practiced by many Shinigami, which was designed to build highly choreographed sequences of strikes, blocks and parries so that the very idea of combat became an almost instinctual practice bolstered by the practitioners skill and chosen form. Kenji Hiroshi described it as "basic practices", and taught many classes where the same sequences were taught over and over again for many hours. Even though Kusaka admitted that the concept was meant for Zanjutsu, he also noted that it could be applied to Hakuda as well, with Kazuma citing its effectiveness in any martial art form.
