酸いも甘いも噛み砕き進め

下克上　いざここから　駆け上がれbreak out

出る杭打っては排除

生き辛い That’s World

ただ一つ揺るがない何かを

見つけたなら

誰かが笑う夢や空想を

語れたなら手にする通行証

常識はただの固定概念

想定外がつきもの

多数決で正義が決まるなら

僕らは悪かも

型破り　不屈の精神 刻めjust now

break out　まだ遠くてもall right

駆け引きよりも限界突破

酸いも甘いも噛み砕き進め

下克上　いざここから　駆け上がれbreak out

Chew the sour and sweet, and move forward

Revolt, now run up from here, and break out

The stake that sticks out is eliminated

Life is harsh, That’s World

There's only one unshakeable thing

If you find it

Dreams and fantasies that would make others laugh

If you can talk about yours, you get a pass

Common sense is just a fixed concept

The unexpected is bound to happen

If justice is determined by majority vote

Then we're evil

Breaking the mold, carve out the spirit of fortitude just now

break out more

break out more

break out more, we're still far away but it's all right

Break through your limits rather than bargaining

break out more

break out more

Conceal the strike of conversion

Even if beaten up

Over and over, step up stand up

Chew the sour and sweet, and move forward

Revolt, now run up from here, and break out

At the base of the wall are insect-like legs it uses to advance as it lays waste to territory in its proximity.

## Personality

Not much is known about its personality, except it is an aggressive invader who cares little about laying waste and destruction in its wake, committing indiscriminate slaughter when it first arrived in the country and continuing it for 150 years. Its true purpose if any is unknown as it seemingly endulges itself in mindless destruction and unquenchable hunger as it continues to grow larger and stronger.

## Abilities

Not much is known about the Black Kishin, but it is by far and above the most powerful Kishin and by proxy Oni in existence. It was so mighty that no human was ever a match to its might when it invaded Hi no Moto, easily scorching opposition to extinction. It has remained undefeated by 150 years, during which it has grown stronger as a result of continuous ore consumption. It has engulfed half of the country at present time.
