1) From what I recall, the CCG didn't have much info on Tatara. It seems that all they really knew was that he was a former member of Chi She Lian, Yan's brother, and an Aogiri member. Likely, no one knew he had a kakuja or the extent of his abilities.

2) Kakuja are very rare. So rare that most investigators don't have experience with them and have only heard horror stories. Upon seeing that Tatara had a kakuja, all the mooks were surprised and scared. The only ones there that probably had experience were Houji and maybe Akira.

I also assume the transformation would have been too quick to stop anyway. I think they were having a lot of trouble even before he popped out his kakuja and Tatara didn't bother to use it until Houji showed up.

3) Houji seemed to have analyzed Tatara enough to recognize that he was fixated on his deceased brother to his detriment. His kakuja looked the same and all the moves Houji pulled seem to prove his theory. Tatara was trying to emulate his brother, so Houji was quickly taking the advantage. I think Tatara's signature mask was also his brother's.

4) Let's just say manga logic and leave it at that.

5) I've no idea what Takizawa is trying to do tbh.
