I recommend looking at some of the other characters, so you can see more or less what we're going for.

Ugh, doublesend. Plz remove!
Yea, everything has been worked out (for the better). Sorry everyone, for the disturbance.
And please don't shut up, @Feyblue. I value your input!

@byteoflogic Huh. Well, not to be rude, which I know I'm going to probably end up being anyway, so I pre-emptively apologize, but a slight change of focus might actually not be so bad. Her whole "reinforces body with dangerous amounts of magical energy to perform increased physical feats at the price of possibly sustaining damage" is already really similar to Aegis' abilities, especially since they both have boots as a focus.
If you switched out her focus to "magic guns" then you could still have a similar fighting style just by doing things differently. Namely, pull a Ruby Rose and send yourself flying all over the place with the recoil of firing magically-empowered guns, while also pulling functionally infinite firearms out of nowhere to keep going. Plus, a Magical Girl's transformation and armaments are based on the user's personality, so there's really no rule that says that your aesthetic has to be all cute and girly. They could easily look like normal firearms.
I share your fear, so... please understand I'm not trying to be combative.
I can see the connect drawn between Effortless Bound and Push, but I never intended boots as a focus. In fact, they were more of an afterthought for an aesthetic justification. And... the way that she handles right now is faaar more limited than Aegis or Ruby. I quite like the limitation and I can remove the boots if you feel they're too close.
I'm sorry everyone...
Ugh, this is such a mess.
Maybe I should just scrap her :/
Idk. I fucked uuuuuuup. I'll try to figure something out.

Magical guns are a perfectly acceptable aesthetic.
I more meant they don't fit aesthetically with Akiko. Unless they look close to mundane firearms, but that seems cheap.
I could have magically generated pistols of some variety, but I can't find a way to justify that aesthetically.
Adapt the idea to archery? Though traditional bows are huge.
Could they be magically-generated guns of some sort? I kinda built her around being a gunslinger.
Oh. Shite... What would you suggest?
What hast thou summoned me for? Ooh, this looks cool!
Consider me interested!
