Sunday - Night
The arrival of a new Hollow was a surprise, but one that was met with. Sara evading backwards and Bakuto running in the way to guard her against the attack. Sara was most certainly safe for this moment, while Bakuto attempted to thrust his blade into it's open mouth. It was a foolhardy move, after all he was putting part of himself into it's jaws, and he would discover this rather quickly as the moment his arm crested past it's white teeth, it would chomp right down on his arm. The bones in his shoulder would feel themselves being squeezed and pulled. To his fortune, this would only last mere moments as Sara and Rei blasted it with Kido, but it had done some damage to his dominant sword arm.
The Hollow reeled a little, pulling back away, angling it's head down to try and hide the mask on the underbelly, it's true face. It began to slither side to side, seeing between the three combatants, Bakuto after his move was now the weakest link, and dove straight for him, aiming to use it's head to batter him quickly.

Tony
It was an inspired choice to go up and into the air to avoid the attack, giving Tony both a vantage point, and avoiding both attacks wholesale. The timing of his plan was a little off however, as the after image would fade as soon as it finished the thrust, dashing through at the same time as the real one, a blue flash would follow as it adjusted it's bladed arm to strike up into the air. Steel met bone-like steel as the Hollow met each blow with it's own blade before avoiding the last one, dashing away quickly, recognizing that the weight of Tony's final swing was greater, given more strength as he was coming from the air.
The hollow stood a little ways away, maybe around several to a dozen feet, three or so blade's lengths away. It looked at Tony carefully, tilting it's head slightly, quickly, it appeared to laugh as it opened it's mouth, no more than a few inches apart, making a rattling noise as it did. It was difficult to understand but it appeared as if it was enjoying itself... Was it impressed that Tony managed to avoid being skewered? Or perhaps it simply liked to fight? Whatever the case may be, it seemed to not attack, it's gestures in fact implied it wanted Tony to approach this time. If Tony took too long, the curious blue Hollow would even raise it's untransformed arm to beckon with it's hand, a rattling laugh following.

Darius Stone
The opponent before Darius was a lumbering beast, large, powerful, and pretty soon as Darius would feel it... Heavy. The next thing he would feel would be akin to a truck striking his side, the entirety of the left side of his body would feel as if it was flattened against a wall and flung across the asphalt. However, he was not without success of his own, the strike he attempted in this short moment struck true, however without proper form and power, it found itself shallow. The mask cracked a tiny chip, the large hollow barely registering the attack, slowly turning it's head towards Darius, but doing no more. No follow up, just... Acknowledgement.
The Kido spell he employed, Koshi, ensured he would be better for it, though it was patchwork, the entire side of his body might be fractured at best, numbing dull pain radiating through his arm and ribs at worst. Yet it prevented him from taking the attack wholesale. Though despite the size and power of that attack it felt more like it pushed him than struck him too. A half measure for offense would be too shallow for this one, but a half measure for defense would be too weak to withstand more than a few more attacks too. The fortunate thing is that he was up against a Hollow that was uniquely... Not in a hurry. He had time to decide.
