What is the Watchman Series in Gachiakuta? Powers and Instruments Explained

The Watchman Series in Gachiakuta is the most potent and mysterious series of Vital Instruments. All the Vital Instruments under the Watchman Series have special abilities and remain one of the main focuses of Kei Urana’s magnum opus. It remains unknown how these Vital Instruments came about, except for the fact that they belonged to the Watchman. These weapons increase the abilities of a Giver, making them more powerful than others. Unknown to Rudo, he possessed one of those weapons for years. Here is a list of all the Vital Instruments from the Watchman Series revealed in Kei Urana’s Gachiakuta.

SPOILERS AHEAD!

1. 3R

• User: Rudo Surebrec
• Type: Gloves

Rudo Surebrec’s adoptive father, Regto, gifted him a pair of gloves to hide his scars from parental abuse. Unknown to him, the gloves would change his life. The pair of gloves is called 3R and belongs to the Watchman Series, bearing its symbol. After Rudo unlocked his abilities as a Giver, Enjin and a few human traffickers were shocked to see him using more than one Vital Instrument, which is next to impossible.

While 3R is Rudo’s only Vital Instrument, the pair of gloves allows the user to turn any object into a Vital Instrument. These items are mostly discarded by their previous owners and turn to dust upon Rudo using them. The maximum number of extra Vital Instruments that can be used is three, but if one is chosen, it will have three times the power. 3R has unlimited thought power, making it one of the strongest Vital Instruments.

2. Watchman Boots

• User: Amo Empool
• Type: Shoes

The Boots have the Watchman Series logo on the sides and possess a unique ability to manipulate opponents using smell. Like 3R, it possesses unlimited thought power and emits a scent that mirrors someone the opponent shares a deep bond with, causing them to fall into an illusion where they perceive the user as that person. Since the opponent imagines the user as a close one, they are wide open to attacks from the latter. Amo Empool is the current owner of the boots after attaining them from a human trafficker. Currently, she is a Cleaner in Team Front.

3. Mishra

• User: Zodyl Typhon
• Type: Coat

Mishra is a long, thick coat with a hood attached by a belt. The Watchman Series logo is on the back, held by four metal rings. With Mishra’s unlimited thought power, it can mutate the body of the user into whatever they eat. From sprouting wings for flying to creating and manipulating dozens of dark, spiky appendages, Mishra can do it all. It can be understood that Mishra’s powers are being used as the user’s face will have markings. Previously, it belonged to Canis Surebrec, but currently, it belongs to Zodyl Typhon, the leader of the Raiders’ organization.
