Finger Guns

Finger Guns (指鉄砲 Yubi Teppō) is a Body Manipulation or Energy Manipulation technique depending on the method employed.
==Description==
===Finger-Firing type===
Kitarō can fire each of his fingers off like bullets to attack enemies. His fingers will regrow after a short amount of time. 
Although it is one of his strongest attacks, it has only been used in the anime in the 1st series adaptation of Akuma Belial. This is depicted as the most powerful among his normal attacks in the manga.

===Energy-Firing type===
In Yōkai Sen Monogatari, Kitaro could instead shoot spirit energy blasts out of his fingers. He defeated the Wolfman by using this power to fire Neko-Musume's silver ring into his body.
His aim is pretty precise, as he has used his fingers to launch his Hair Spear and was able to shoot down the fleeing Mabi.
In the 2007 anime adaptation, it is revealed to be a secret technique of the Ghost Tribe. Kitaro asks his father to teach him the technique in preparation for the Great Yōkai War on Kikaiga Island. During training, Medama-Oyaji explains that the technique uses air, so it has incredible accuracy. However, it uses quite a load of spirit energy.
In episode 69 of the 2007 anime, it is shown that if Kitaro is lacking energy, he can only manage to fire off bubbles.
In the 2018 anime adaptation, the Finger Gun is used primarily as a finishing move and is shown to be extremely powerful. Like the 2007 anime, this adaption's version of the technique appears to use air and spirit energy, which explains its accuracy. It is still unknown if Kitaro had to train to use this technique in this adaptation.
In episode 27 of the 2018 anime, Kitarō is able to fire his Finger Gun in a rapid-fire fashion like in the 2007 anime. In the same episode, he was also able to shoot a silver bullet at Wolfgang with his Finger Gun. This is somewhat similar to how Kitarō launched his hair spear with a shot of his finger gun in the 2007 series. In other cases, Kitarō can fire large beams of energy for long periods of time, like in episode 37 against Backbeard.
In episode 64 of the 2018 anime, Kitarō sucked cold air from the fire extinguisher, handed it to his fingertip, shot it out, and froze Suiko.
