Rewatching this episode again, and I noticed something...
When Todou sliced that cockpit, he used the sandanzuki (triple thrust) technique. He even says the name of the technique aloud.
That's a sword technique used by the famed Shinsen-gumi first platoon leader Souji Okita, during the bakumatsu era in Japan.
This technique was a unique move by Okita, and was never copied by any other swordsman since his demise, so the details on how to do the technique is lost.
It's interesting to see Todou somehow knowing how to do this techinique.
