Well, it's not so much the chanting that's the problem with Hanyou and Youkai (by the way, that's the plural form too. There is no plural in japanese, so you don't add any s's to the end =D). In my opinion, it's the fact that they don't really have the right spiritual... ability/force/type. Youkai are the "Demons", and thus have a demonic, rather than spiritual, aura. While a human use their spiritual aura for it. Most of the Shinigami were human (in fact, all except the Anthropomorphic wolf one), so I'd just assume that it's much easier for them to use the Shinigami abilities. After all, you can skip the chanting after you know Kidou well enough (which is different from knowing the chants).
Soul Slayers I believe should be open to anyone with human blood in 'em. So, the Hanyou can have their own, but wouldn't be quite as good as a human's. Especially if they're not a Shinigami themselves.
I do like the idea of being able to become Hollow/part-hollow, like Ichigo had.
My two cents on those ideas.
I can't really think of my own ideas, really. The most I can come up with is being able to acquire/purchase those soldier pill things (that's what they were called, right? What Kon is) and put them in puppets as an ally, being able to order them around -- much like a pet. And possibly random hollows appearing in areas, where only people with special senses (like Youkai, or with some spell for Humans) can see, and then being able to destroy for a high chance of a jewel shard!
