Tama

Musubi's Tama as seen by Karasuba

The Tama (or Aramitama[1]) is a component of a Sekirei's body also referred to as the Sekirei Soul, Sekirei Core or Sekirei Spirit. Basically, it is the core, nucleus, or spiritual force which enables Sekirei to live and use their powers[2], so in essence it is the life of a Sekirei itself. A Sekirei who loses its Tama ceases to function. The core is composed of a material that resonates with the Jinki, by using these, an individual could turn the cores off and on, and freely control all of the Sekirei[3]. The Tama can be placed into a Sekirei apart from the individual that it starts out in, as done with the Tama of #08 Yume which she gave to #88 Musubi. A statement from Homura also indicates that the Tama can freely change bodies without a Sekirei having to die (as was the case with Yume), as he once thought about requesting another body from Sahashi Takami[4].

It is later explained by Matsu that Yume possessed an abnormal "Paired Sekirei Core", a Tama with the properties of both a typical Sekirei Core and an Ashikabi core, being the only one amongst the 108 Sekirei of Miya's Sekirei ship that did not need to be winged, a "soul not meant to bond with anyone."[5] This allowed for Musubi, who possessed Yume's Tama after her sacrifice, to protect and revive Minato after he was incapacitated[6] and control Kouten without her Ashikabi needing to stay to assist her.[7]
