Even though Buramu is better at using Zanjutsu Kito can use Hakuda and Kido at a level that not even Akuma can compete with. They are said to have the best team work. Kito was greatly sadden by Buramu's death since he was his only competition and that Kito offered to extend his life but Buramu refused.

Their Divisions have worked closely on several occasions, such as in the fortification of Seireitei, and the construction of the 7th Division's Higher Institute.

Miu Sarutobi: She is Kito's new Vice Captain and they have had a good relationship with each other. They are good friends and Kito took a liking to her ever since she gave him a special gift. Kito is very protective of her and even gave her a position in his squad for all that she has done for him. Miu is very grateful to Kito for teaching her hakuda techniques and the two are always together when they aren't busy with their full schedules. Kito thinks of her like a little sister and would often try to make sure she is well looked after.

Gohan Shinimori: He is Kito's mentor and has looked after Kito ever since he was young. Gohan has treated Kito like another one of his children and was proud of him for becoming a captain at such a young age. He would teach Kito silent sword techniques because of this even though Kito rarely uses his sword during battle. Gohan has even been known to use Kito's kindness against him as he had Kito to be put into the onmitsukido to spy on Asura and he also made sure to incorporate the onmitsukido swordsmen into Kito's division as well.

Valentino: Kito befriended Valentino after he helped him get released from prison, he would respect Valentino when he became the head of the detention unit for a short while. Kito noticed Valentino liked the department of research and development and helped him get a position in the department as well, becoming Valentino's superior there. When Valentino disappeared because of the The Event, Kito was sadden that a close friend had to disappear but if he didn't he knew he would have died. Kito knows that he is alive and hopes to find his old friend to have one last sparing match like he did with Buramu before he died.
