Powers and Abilities
Much like his younger sister, he has psychic abilities. He has the ability to see into the close future such as in Act 14, when he gets a vision of Sailor Amalthea being abducted by the Black Moon. He also can slightly sense discrepancies in space-time but rarely uses that ability. He seems to have precognition but slightly weaker than Rei's ability. He has been seen to use ofuda scrolls in a similar fashion to his sister but the scrolls he uses have differing writing with separate uses, such as 馬脚 (bakyaku "reveal one's true colors", "reveal one's true colours", "give oneself away") which he uses to reveal evil spirits true-selves or to reveal someone's true identity; it can also be used to make invisible enemies visible.

Riku also has amazing and powerful pyrokinetic powers.

Etymology
The kanji of his surname translate as "fire" (火 hi) and "field" or "civilian" (野 no).

His first-name, Riku, is the kanji of 陸 (Riku) meaning "land" or "shore".

Thus, his full name could mean "Fire field-land".
