It's a shame that Tachibana was the last to seal his King and promptly lost all his cards, otherwise he might have got the chance to use it at least once. I guess it's possible that I misunderstood Yoshito saying "Blade's King Form isn't normal" to specifically mean Kenzaki isn't normal. Maybe BOARD just underestimated the potential of King Form in general, or Yoshito is deliberately feeding Tachibana misinformation to "prove" his alleged jealousy towards Kenzaki. Both good headcanons, I guess.
