Bleach thread. Spooky fat guy edition week 3.

I'm loving every second of this, but I'll be sad when bach somehow still beats him just so ichigo can come in and clean up :/

I don't know if Bach can win, he seems to be doing/saying all of the cliche things a loser would be.

>>117864822
Bach probably won't beat him, Haschwald or Uryu probably will, or at least knock him off balance/suppress his power long enough for Bach to KO him.

>>117864740
By the thumbnail it looked like he was handling a guitar

For a second at the beginning of the chapter I thought Ichibei's power was to take the black out of everything, and I thought he'd take away Bach's mustache.

>>117865542
Why would the Soul King be evil? Pull your head out of the ass of whatever fanfic it's in.

Everything black bends its will towards his whim.
One Quincy wears all white, the one next in power to Uryu.

Yo

Isn't the whole idea of power of a name come from Shakespeare?

>>117864740
So if Ichimonji didn't realise his bankai this chapter why did Buckbeard try to steal it?

>>117867992
he didnt

Why is Ywach such a jobber villain? This is playing out the exact same way as Yamamoto vs fake Ywach.

>>117868165
There's no way a dude like Yhwach can be the final villain. Kubo and Japan in general hate anybody that isn't a prettyboy. Final villain will be Uryu or Haschwald.

to take ichibes power.

It's like you all just started reading Bleach.

Of course the fat monk will lose to elevate stachenazis status as the big bad before he presses on only to get defeated in an underwhelming manner in the end.

>>117868211
But Blackbeard is final villain of One Piece he is as far from "pretty" as you can get. But to be fair I also doubt Yhwach is final villain. He doesn't look threatening at all, he is just tired old man.

>>117868911
That's not a valid argument since every One Piece character looks like ass.

>>117868911
Only Aizen can be final boss.

Yhwach is not even his real, and as far as anyone's concerned he has no name.
He alone has given the names to the abilities all Quincies use, he gave back his own voice, and he gave back his own power. His ultimate power needs no name.


Did this sword ever have a name. A sword that made a bow that shot an arrow that became a sword.

Also Soul Society like his own realm is an artificial construct impeding the natural progression into the actual afterlife which is either Hell or reincarnation, and even perhaps Hueco Mundo.

So when he tells Bach that his power was stolen but it didn't go to Bach wtf does that mean?

Is he saying his power is now loose on the world?

>>117869705
his black was stopped but yhwach can't use the black himself, and ichi can still just pull more black from the world.

>>117869865
Didnt YHwach show us that he can pull endless Reiatsu? So Its endless Reiatsu vs. endless Darkness (sasuga)?

>>117869659
Do you feel in charge

>>117869865
I don't understand

So how long until Bach loses, top tier shinigami management appear to be bad guys and we're back to row row fight the power? Ichigo joins together with Aizen to take down soul king etc

why are you doing this to me anon i just woke up

>>117870068
Okay I read it again. Guess its infinite black.
That's stupid though considering that it should take your power to control black not just the black you control

I wonder if this arc will get animated

they could do it well I think, but I don't think Bleach is popular enough to reair, right?

>>117870633
He only took his 'mana points', which the monk recovered using darkness.
Darkness is his sword ability. Yhwach can't take his sword ability because a) he
s already taken Yamamotos b) quincies have to be strong enough to wield certain abilities, like only Yhwach could take Ymamaot's bankai and with Monk being so strong, it's likely that no one can take his abilities.

>>117869659
its his zanpakuto

>>117870992
also note the darkness being sucked from urahara. that could be a major foreshadowing

>>117866309
Oh shit

>w-what, did I fail to steal your power with my infallible technique that sealed even yama's bankai?
>CHILL DUDE YOU INDEED STOLE MY POWER, BUT WELL FUCK YOU I'M BLACKNESS

This makes no sense, but monk is based as fuck.

>>117870992
Okay I'll give you sword abilities since they only take bankais, but in that case he shouldn't have been able to take anything at all.
It seems like new rules are just made up constantly

>>117867296
it's from quite a lot of things.

Asian culture's been putting a whole lot of effort into names way before master shakes

>>117871371
To me seems like quncys power, he take it from the surroundings

There are no black characters in bleach because monk absorbed them all.

The black girl only escaped because she's fast and Tosen because of aizen

>>117871122

Is it really though?

Or is just one of a plethora of constructs Quincies can make.

Maybe I'm getting terms mixed up, but doesn't Zanpakuto have to fill certain criteria to be called that?

>>117868211
I hugo won't defeat Ywach, he'll defeat Uryuu. Spirit King will kill and absorb Ywhach and only Ichigo, who is a baby spirit king, will fight him as end boss

>>117872213
Nigga this shit will happen

>>117872072
That wouldnt make sense. He is definetly the son of the Soulking and run away from him, because he saw his bad ways and didnt want to take the throne after him. And thats why he could later invent this crazy stuff that Aizen in the end used. And thats properly why he was so sad when Aizen talked about his Dad. Uraharas Darkness is doubt.

This is pure faggotry. When quincies steal powers they steal the whole power. In monk's case he should not be able to absorb darkness anymore, but he does it anyway because?

>>117872370
You're not thinking in basic Bleach terms. Clearly Monk's power is on another level in terms of what a Quincy "can" and "cannot" take. This is basically what Aizen's "transformation" was all about- being able to operate on the same level as Ichibei.

>>117872370
There is nothing like "shinigami powers" "hollow powers" etc. There is only "power" and way of utilizing it.

What do you think shinigamis did before asuichi created?

>>117873279
correct

>>117872370
His power isn't controlling darkness, but darkness itself. He stole the darkness he had at the moment, but that was essentially stealing nothing,

>>117872361
>Darkness is doubt
Nah, it's literally just dark spots on his clothing

>>117871557
What about the X-axis guy

>>117872370
His power is knowing and manipulating the true names of things. It's like a platonic ideal, he understands the core abstract behind the various reflections and representations of the ideal in language or symbol. It's entirely possible he's half bullshitting and his actual sword has nothing to do with it, it's just that his brush/sword can manipulate written words, but it's knowing the true names to write with the brush that give his powers their depth and reach.

>>117873758
I love Kubo's colorful character palette. Probably the most diverse unironically.

>>117873787
I don't think "transcendent being" is actually a thing; at least not in the sense that Aizen thought he was. Now that we've seen Ywhach and Ichibei's powers it seems to me that "transcendent" is just an umbrella term to describe exponential differences in ability present in such characters.

What makes Ichigo "transcendent" is not actually about his Shinigami, Hollow, or Quincy powers; it's his drive and willingness to sacrifice his all to help others and therein lies the heart.

No offense but these kind of posts are getting repetitive.

So, it has been brought up several times, but people seem to demand an update more than others say "fuck no".

So? Should we work on something? If anything, Ichibei deserves a mention, I guess.

It's kind of great isn't it? They're never really a token black guy or just one stereotype, it's just that occasionally his idea for a cool new character happens to be a black dude. It is a bit of a shame that he keeps away from black chicks. Yoruichi being black was more a play on her being a black cat than on her matching a racial image, Haribel's more a "natural ganguro" fantasy race thing than 'black', I'm pretty certain Jackie was hispanic, and Frenceska Mila-Rose gives off a distinctly Mediterranean sorta vibe (at least to me).

He also loves doing his chinese character thing with their bowl cuts and tail braids and kung fu shoes.

Monk touched yuha, when you touch yuha he can imprint a bit of his soul in yours, then recall it back, that's the base of what and who he is.

He just probably recalled that part of his soul taking along with it the monks raw power at that moment, but not his abilities, although the tweeeest will probably come from that, as Yuha may now understand ichibei skills or some shit as he now has a part if ichibei's soul or some shit.

I've normally been one of the ones always deriding it as a stupid endeavor, but honestly so long as people are just spontaneously making them of their own accord I've got nothing against it. It's just the weird forcing of a new panel every week, even when there's nothing notable to react to that I've been particularly against, funny or not. I say go for it if people are actually interested, but I can't say I've noticed any consistent shared reactions to the past few chapters.

You don't have to play with letters. After dropping "Snipe" concept Kubo went with black -> white -> bleach.

>>117875086
I guess we have to wait for actual demand. People bring up the fact that it has not been updated in weeks, but it is true it's not enough to warrant a change comparing to some other updates.

>>117875299
Keikaku means Kai - Release and Kaku a short version of Kakuzu from naruto. So it means "Release Kakuzu" or better "Free Kakuzu". Speaking of Aizens Kaikaku means of Aizen plan to free Kakuzu. Did you understand?

I wonder, though. He absorbed it because it went to him automatically, against "owner's" will.

What if Ichigo started spamming Getsugas? He'd basically become Getsuga magnet.

>>117871213
uh, the darkness is in terms of brightness, you see the black clothes of dead shinigami giving off darkness too

>>117875771
kakuzu debut was in a chapter of bleach afterwards he appeared in naruto. and in bleach he was kidnapped by the soul king. thats why aizen wants to take revenge on the sk.

>that this wasn't really dark grey?

His power reads "Give 'Monk' control of Darkness."
Not "Give 'wielder' control of Darkness."

Thus, target of power is always Monk, and only the source of power may have changed.

This shit just leads to even more questions, this means then that the soul king isn't some immortal deity/god, he is subject to atrophy also.

Simple

>>117877434
It was easy to miss because of translation errors (I think only Mangapanda got it right), but there was a fatherly honorific used when Urahara talked about the Soul King while sealing Aizen.

>>117877434
Because he had a hardon
He inserte his penis on some sluts vagina and cummed inside

>>117877562
What up with you nigga?

>>117877599
Dont let yourself get fooled. He is deceiving you.

>>117865542
Soul King isn't necessarily evil, just perhaps a very cruel system put into place that Urahara sees as a necessary evil. Every thousand years a new sacrifice is chosen to be Soul King as he holds the realms apart, eventually he burns out and they need a new one, Ichigo will be the next for sure. Soul King upon being chosen can no longer be considered human anything, just "That thing". The last one will choose its successor, and it's already been foreshadowed heavily that Ichigo very soon won't be able to go back to Earth anymore after he becomes "something".

Kind of like FFX, choosing who becomes Sin.

>>117877675
He quoted like five people who were saying contradictory things.

>>117877710

Aizen sought to end the endless broken method.

>>117877675
>>117877721
So then i wanna get straight to the point, what is Aizen's end goals? If what you say is true?

>>117877710
>Final fight is everyone trying to kill the soul king, Ichigo.

>>117877580
I wouldn't even be mad at this point

Why doesn't Urahara just tell Ichigo what the Soul King is?

>>117877816
Rescue Kakuzu, and then after that we're not sure at the moment, but we suspect it may involve creating peace via a deception, sort of like what happens in Naruto, One Piece, or Code Geass.

>>117877906
Ichibei sealed the necessary words when Urahara was disowned.

I've been in and out of these threads all day and a while back someone asked something about how many shikai had "multiple names" (which was kind of a poorly worded question) but in looking over some of the shikai names, I threw together the kanji on all the big shikai/bankai/resurreccion/schrift we've seen. No Fullbring since those were all in English and kana, no kanji.

>>117880240

He just wrecked Yhwach by smothering him in pure black and using his own darkness to kill him. Read the final page nigga.

>>117880372
you've been reading bleach this long and you honestly think this fight is over?

>>117880440

I actually do think it's over. This is already like the 6th chapter about this fight. IChibei has done nothing but job him, and now this "control all darkness" ability is just too insane for anyone to defend against besides maybe Aizen because he's immortal.

The nigga just consumed all darkness from Yhwach, the living world, hueco mundo and soul society.

IT'S OVER.

>>117880370
just english with the japanese pronunciations of the english in katakana. No kanji, or anything with any sort of readable meaning differing from the phonetics.

>>117879725
So I can't tell.

Is Bach's face like cut in half? Or is he just getting ink splattered?

It kind of looks like his head is separated if you look at the edges of the white and black.

>>117880875

He is covered in the black which will make him forget everything he is. Yhwach may have been a shinigami before becoming a quincy since Ichibe insinuated that his sword had a name. Yamamoto insinuated the same before, telling him to draw his sword, like it was a zanpakutou.

>>117880531

But then Yhwach is gonna reveal his Wonderweiss equivalent and OHKO Monk.

Like fucking clockwork.

>>117880955
You know, sword can have name without having to be zanpakutos. And Yamamoto telling him to pull out his sword 'as if it was a zanpakuto' is your own interpretation of it.

>>117881218

Why the hell would a quincy have a material sword?

How mad would you guys be if Ichibei defeated Yhwach?

>>117881261
Why wouldn't a Quincy have a material sword to fight against shinigamis who carry a sword around?

Maybe it's a long lost fucking powerful artifact instead of a fucking Zanpakuto. It doesn't even make sense for him to have one since Asauchi-nigger stated that he knows EVERY asauchi and EVERY owner of a zanpakuto.

>>117881328
it would be nice but either way whoever wins is going to die to the final boss

>>117881401

Please try to think about this within the world of Bleach instead of real life.

We are talking about a random ass sword vs Ryuujin Jakka or some other extremely powerful object.

The only way Yhwach could stuff reaitsu into his sword is if he were a shinigami.

>>117881192
holy shit I didn't remember the anime making wonderweiss look THAT bad

>>117881328
>implying anyone would be mad

>>117881473

Haschwalth, AKA the balance, or the other half of Yhwach also carries some sort of zanapkutou like sword powerful enough to cut Zangetsu in half.

>>117864822
I agree with you. Everything about this guy just makes me happy. Am especially liking his power

>>117881328
Mad? I'm gonna be overjoyed. That means the Quincy arc is over and bleach can end for good.

I'm sick of waiting new chapter to come out every single week for the past 5 years. I want to drop it. I want it to end. But somehow, i just can't stay away from bleach.

>>117881473
>We are talking about a random ass sword
This is your own interpretation only. You have no reason to say that it is "a random ass sword" instead of a powerful as fuck sword that the quincies made. And I don't think the lord and savior of quincies carry a shitty ass sword around, either.

>The only way Yhwach could stuff reaitsu into his sword is if he were a shinigami.
He hasn't stuffed anything in the sword and again you have no fucking idea what the sword exactly is and what it does.

Not only that but STILL we have not seen a single reference to him being a shinigami, having shinigami powers or releasing his sword.
Yama told him to use his sword for a fair fight.
Ichibei simply said that his sword lost the name.
There's no reason to think he's a shinigami/part shinigami/is carrying a zanpakuto.

>>117881779
>That means the Quincy arc is over and bleach can end for good.

Why would you be happy with Bleach ending?
I would be sad. I love this ride, and I want it to continue forever. Just stop being tsundere for Bleach and admit that if Bleach was a woman you would suck her girldick.

sadly that was the only time he actually took off his dumb generic sternritter cape. Every other shot of him has maybe one limb visible at a time, or half his chest, or just his waist down. it's actually really annoying that Kubo does that a lot with some characters; they just never get a good clear full body shot.

Ichibei' s power seems too insane to be wasted in a fight against Yhwach or Toofsy. I would like to imagine some ridiculous showdown between Ichibei and Urahara. When will it happen?

Harribel is white though. I figured her ability would imply that shes got a Beach tan

>>117883096
She always struck me as more mediteranean than african, but maybe that's just me. Sitll she's not the only one; Kubo has mysteriously never applied toner to NaNaNa's face, and NaNaNa's as black as it gets.

So what would happen if Shunsui used his color-wars-power on Mr Black?
Would there be some sort of degrees of power shit going on?

>>117874828
Didn't Aizen say Yamamoto could beat him in a fair fight or was that supposed to be before he finished fusing with the Hōgyoku? Or was this just more of Aizen's shit?

>>117882970
Remember when the vizards were supposed to be stronger than normal captains on account that they were captains that got a power boost?

>>117883270
i see what you're trying to say but, no well maybe i mean if he made his face and hands black or something like that then yes he would be wearing more black therefore more damage.

>>117883284
Aizen was cautious, he feared Yamamoto's Bankai as something that could potentially beat him. If he took it away though, there was nothing left to the man that could hurt him.

He feared a few certain other people perhaps as well, but after locking them in Heuco it didn't matter anymore. Upon actually fighting them he decided that he was just being overly cautious perhaps, but better safe than sorry.

>>117883369
I doubt Yamamoto would use his Bankai in FKT on account of it being in the real world. If him being in it threatened the existence of Soul Society can you imagine the collateral damage in the real world? Particularly against someone like Aizen? Aizen probably knew he was safe from that.

>>117875547
Bleach - l & e

Bach

>>117883530
Yama might do it if it meant the world might be saved, either what that's notably what Aizen was cautious about regarding him which is why he took it away. It's not like the world would immediately die either, and that town they were in was just a fake without people. We saw his Bankai later, and the four forms might have matched up and beaten Aizen indeed, but he's not going to let such a thing happen. He'll create a special Arrancar ahead of time especially to seal him up so he can't use his sword at all.

Best Squad zero member, I dont even give a shit about the rest

>>117885638
no kubo legitimately leaned on white backgrounds that cloudy sky toner, and just action lines for a very long time, starting during the middle of the Hueco Mundo arc. Obviously people have turned it into a joke and that's blown it out or proportion, but it's not like it isn't/was never there. It's really easy to see if you just scroll through thumbnails chapter by chapter because the heavy white balance is obvious from a glance. But again it seems to be working his way out of that in these last two volumes worth of chapters.

>>117885847

Part of the reason the manga is even called "Bleach" in the first place is because of his favorite Nirvana album.

Let's be honest
all of the royal guards are top tier characters
best characters Kubo has cranked out in at least a decade

I hate how Kubo keeps making these mirror matches that would never work otherwise. Like Monk and Bach just happen to have the ability to give or steal powers. And Byakuya and Zommari just happened to both be fast. And Kenpachi and Nnoitra just happened to both be strong. And Harribel and Hitsugaya just happened to both control ice/water.

I want him to mix it up because they seem too obviously set up.

>>117886083

That predates Shakespeare by a very long time.

The thought that there is power in naming things goes back to before written history. It's why it was a big goddamn deal if you weren't given a name or especially a surname when you were born 1000+ years ago. You were seen as less than a person in most cultures.

After Mayuri beat Gigi, for a whole month, the chapters were rush yet nothing felt like it was progressing at all. Sternreiter Elite were so bland, and the way they kept explaining their powers, especially that lethal blood sternreighter was so frustrating to read.
The Bleach threads were so dead the only thing were just a few people shipping.
Now it's gotten a lot better, it's the Kubo coaster

>>117886575
the shipping idiots were what drove people away. the chapters are just as mundane now as they were then and there's just as little progress being made. the shippers just finally got bored of their inane horseshit and left us alone. that is literally the only difference.

>>117886575

>"transcendent" is just an umbrella term to describe exponential differences in ability present in such characters.
What they have in common and what it seemed like Aizen was trying to do was concept powers. The idea of transcendence is power for an concept, in Monk's case it's Black, in Bach's case it's quinces.

Why even bother

>>117887339
Why are you even reading this

>>117886769
But you can say that about anyone. Mayuri's 'concept' is science, Shunsui is games, ect; what sets them apart is the dimension of power, which can be defined very broadly at this point.

>>117887339
He's gonna go down like a champ. Yhwach will have to go all out and it'll be close.

>>117864923
The fat guy is the one making all the cliches things the "strongest guy the good guys have" does before getting his ass handed by the bad guy

>>117887411
Mayuri isn't able to control the concept os science. Shunsui and games is getting closer, but he does not have control his sword does.

>>117887961
'concept'
Shunsui's 'concept' is games indeed. Zanpakutous are basically a manifestation of the owners soul/persona/psique/philosophy. Don't tell me the 'game' aspect of his swords don't fit him perfectly.
Same goes for Mayuri even if his sword isn't directly related to science.

>>117886210
>Don't know if that's his bankai or super shikai but it's really fucking cool

Has he released twice? No, this is just his Shikai, much like Shunsui's game shikai. The higher tiers all have broken shikai like this, but you'd be lucky if you ever saw their bankai before they died or the story ended.

Even Aizen never showed his bankai.

>>117871370
Even though he stole it, it could not become his, because he has no identity now. After being hit with the brush he has no name or self.

I can't see this fight going any other way. And considering Haschwalth is whiter than the normal Quincy it would only make sense that his power is light. Not to mention wasn't he the one that opened up the way to the Royal Realm with a beam of light?

>>117887339
Normally this would be the case but since Yhwach has two guys who were prophesized to take over for him, it will be okay to let Yhwach die.

Nigga makes asauchis and he used a special sword that can cut thru everything (but it's not stated if it's his real zanpakuto)
Americagirl makes superfood or whatever

No one but the monk has shown his zapankuto powers so far.

Bleach's powercreep is retarded

Is MC Hammer kill?
He got a hole shot thru him but I think shit hair guy and land whale could heal him
I'm just waiting for Hawkman to fight Kenpachi or Chad even

Why is the "good" guy the master of darkness in a manga called Bleach?

>>117890128
>"good" guy
Since when were you under the impression that the RG and Soul King are the "good" guys?

>>117887339
>he will get beat in 1 chapter anyway
what do you even mean by this?
The fight has been several chapters already, with the two trading blows.
Do you mean that Juha will end it with a single strike? Thats fights for you

Aizen was white all along

-One is some bantyo guy who sits in hot springs all day till his skin prunes just like your grandmama's.

-One is a culinary chef that puts your Ghost Mexico abuelita's cooking to shame.

-One is a black smith(pun intended) that also goes to poetry slam night at your local Hipster Java house.

-One is a seamstress that gets to manhandle you in ways that you will never be the same again.

-One is a celibate monk that is blue balling pretty hard reminding your family how the last one turned you into a filthy slut.

Why doesn't Aizen just use his bankai? I bet it has bullshit meta power levels that are theoretically infinite.

>kuboception

holy fuck if this were to happen

I would lose my shit and name my first born KENPACHI

and get a fucking ichigo sword and carry it everywhere

>>117868336
Amazing

>>117890312
>yfw Aizen doesn't have a bankai

>>117888229
I think his ability is more of being able to control all darkness regardless of source. So like with ywach, it didn't matter if it was his because ichi's control is absolute.

>>117890325
Did you build that shinto temple out of your dung yet?

>>117864740
I wouldn't give a fuck if Bleach could go on for 500 more chapters if all of it was this awesome fat bald guy just whooping the biggest big bad guy Kubo ever cooked up.

Seriously. All this build up for Squad Zero and all this shit and half of them get punked in a single chapter. It's refreshing to see at least one of the good guys kick ass for once.

I'm not looking forward to some stupid technicality or trump card completely ruining him though.

It would be funny if he tricked everyone with his shikai to make them believe he had a bankai.

what in the ever loving fuck. don't fucking include any of them if you're gonna only include the worst character and Shinji.

For a Shounen? Not really.

he's a bosozoku, not a yakuza, and not a bancho. Bancho are school boy delinquents in a king of the hill style heirarchy. They play on that classic japanese manly grit and spirit kind of heroism and brute force. Yakuza very from thugs to extortionists to actual organized criminals but are generally villains (albeit sometimes honorable ones). Bosozoku are bike gangs that are mostly about doing drugs and just being a general menace for the sake of disrupting the quiet of society. They're about being loud and disagreeable, also motorcycles. Realisitcally bancho(when there still were any) and bosozoku sometimes end up yakuza, but the archetypes in fiction are all distinct and separate.

>Shinji will not use bankai
>Yoruichi will never reveal her zanpakuto
>Tessai will never have a good fight again
>Super Vice-Captain will never kick anyone again
>Kira will never nauseate anyone's weapon anymore

Why continue reading?

>>117890764
since the shikai he showed publically was a fake he probably had a fake bankai that he used to pass his captain's test.

>>117886210

Isn't the paint brush the released form of a sealed zanpakutou? Almost every sealed zan looks like a regular sword, with the only variance being the crossguard. So the paint brush would be his shikai and its power is the ability to cut names in half, and his bankai is the brush sword with the ability to take names and control black.

If his paintbrush weren't a shikai, then it shouldn't have any powers or abilities outside of being a regular tool but it does.

>>117890843
Because Ichibei is more interesting and cool than those shitty characters no one cares about.

>>117890904
urahara's is a cane, and kirinji's is a wooden paddle. ichibei's sword is just his brush

What was the point of Unohana's build-up of Kenpachi when kenpachi is still weak as fuck?

Ok I watch the anime and stopped after the Arrancar arc.

Every time I see the more recent chapters of the manga they are completely devoid of backgrounds.

Am I just seeing the wrong pages consistently or is Kubo just getting really lazy?

>>117888413

Nigga B stands for balance. Don't you remember what happened to Cang Du?

>>117890843
The only thing on that list that I'll regret not seeing is Shinji's bankai.

Urahara's isnt a cane, thats merely the sheath. Inside it is a regular sword

>>117891176
you seem to have missed the point. The sealed form of a zanpakutou does not need to be a katana.

Ok Kubo, I'll concede. This monk is actually a pretty interesting character and he seems to be pulling out the stops for drawing him. Well done

>>117890904
Honestly I think kubo stopped giving a shit about how zanpakutos work. Hell I thought the giant hands were his ability.

But I think it's a brush because kubo likes to give the strongest shinigami, like Yama, the least threatening weapons so they can unseal them and show of their bullshit.

>>117891273
The sealed form is always a minor variation of the initial Asauchi. The only thing that changes is the hilt and crossguard, the blade always remains. Urahara is a blade on a cane hilt, kirinji is a blade on a staff hilt, even the characters with shikais that dont even resemble a blade still have katana/blades in sealed form.

So unless ichibei is the first and only character to have a completely different and unique sealed zanpakutou, then I'm going to have to assume that his most recent ability is his bankai.

>>117891287
shame all the fights beforehand has led us to think hes the job mc job monk

>>117891129
his powers were shown once and the name was never given. Whether his schrift is The Balance, The Balancer, The Balanced, The Balancingact, The Balancewheel, The Balancescale, The Beambalance, etc... has never been confirmed.
