Some thoughts after chapter 209 before the rest of Kaisei's Shinigami.
When Kaisei introduces the god of death, we don't see him (the god), we see Kaisei.
After finishing the chapter, I thought that it was because the audience can't 'see' Kaisei's god of death (they're still thinking about Akane's). I still think that's the case, but I also think there's another reason: Kaisei's Shinigami is done in the personal style. It makes sense that the only performance of Shinigami done in that style shows us the performer and not the character.
I also think that this could turn into something good/useful for Kaisei. The fact that his entire face is pitch black during the god of death's entrance makes me wonder if this means that his performance will be like a blank canvas that the people in the audience will project themselves onto. In a way, it could be similar to Akane's performance (the audience interpreted the story in different ways), except that during Kaisei's, the difference in perceptions would be because of each person's own personal experiences, which would be awakened by Kaisei's personal/emotional style. (It would be cool if even during their duel, even while performing in different styles, Akane and Kaisei still ended up drawing parallels between each other.)
And if that's what happens, then I hope that we never see the god of death's face during all of Kaisei's Shinigami. I think that would be cool.
