I had a feeling Yoruichi developed her kitty ability to just get out of the house and away from the suffocating toxic environment of the nobility. She never was visibly comfortable with her status. And there's the irony with the nobles. They have the wealth, power and control yet are always at each other's throats living in a world wracked by paranoia and plots/counter plots among themselves. Also like how Chad has become a known boxer while keeping true to his grandfather's teachings.

Yes. I bet the original captain of the 2nd division could shapeshift too but it was probably a polar bear or white tiger instead of a cat. Anything more monstrous; since its intended use would be different than Yoruichi's.

My favorite answers from kubo on Klub outside have been Arrancars can procreate. All the lore in CFYOW was established by kubo. The vizards can reach resurrection alongside bankai in the future. Yachiru's identity. Geralds weakness. Ikkaku is the only shinigami alongside Ichigo to have a scabbard and sword component to his zanpaktou. Ikkaku's healing ointment is part of his zanpaktou.

[@abominationdesolation8322]

It's pretty cool that Ikkaku's zanpakuto has a non-combat ability as its "true" "special" power, just like Yumechika's. I think this foreshadows something about Ikkaku's bankai not being fully revealed. Maybe the blades are meant to be brittle and he actually gains something by losing them. Maybe when his blades are fully destroyed his healing ointments are released into his blood, causing him to instantly heal from any injury, while his bankai's ability to infinitely raise its power flows into him instead of the blades. There is a databook stating Ikkaku's bankai could theoretically surpass Yamamoto, if only for an instant, if given enough time to charge. Maybe his bankai is meant to be used like giant nunchakku; maybe they become smaller and more dense when he learns its true name.

[@themrmezbah]

​@@abominationdesolation8322Yeah definitely, it seems like all the signs are there. For a true ability reveal to be placed later for him.

I’m so glad that Toshiro and Kenpachi got alot of extra info via Klub. I remember back in the day when they both got their powers revealed for the first time, KingOfLightning was ranting and raving about how they came out of nowhere, and I pointed out that they’d been foreshadowed FOREVER and got downvoted to oblivion by his fanbase. Funny thing is, Kaname foreshadowed Kenpachi’s true nature by referring to him as a demon when they first fought, and Gin referred to Toshiro as a reincarnation of a heavenly guardian which appears once every millennia. There’s a heaven/ hell parallel between them in a way. With every opponent questioning the depths of Kenpachi’s powers before he achieved shikai and Bankai, and EVERY opponent and ally Toshiro had basically saying “he’s got talent but he’s young and inexperienced, when he gets older he’ll be dangerous” since the soul society arc, it was pretty apparent we were gonna get a showcase of both before the series ended.

[@babytoshiro7014]

Exactly. Been saying Toshiro achieve bankai early but people thought it was a lie lol

[@abominationdesolation8322]

They were foreshadowed just fine, sure, but my problem is that their introductions were rushed and a bit wasted. We needed a flashback chapter showing major character breakthroughs for Hitsugaya and Zaraki; as well as a background chapter on Gerard. Maybe show Gerard as a mere organ of the Soul King and show like three panels of the SK living in his prime, then show how Gerard spent centuries cold and alone waiting for a body, then how he made friends and became the heart of his group of sternritters during the original war; idk something. The whole arc was rushed. That's the root of the issue. The work should be much more dense. Bleach should have tons of novels to help with the narrative and offer exposition. Hitsugaya's and Zaraki's bankais should have had more substantial effects on Gerard. They should have been pivotal to his defeat rather than just slowing him down; or at least EMPHASIZE how important it was to stall Gerard so that not defeating him didn't feel cheap. Granted Kubo made it a plot point that Gerard was an existential threat to SS; that he'd destroy seireitei just by falling from the palace. But to me he only did the bare minimum and it's just not enough. It's like if Ichigo's first hollow "could have hurt someone" instead of breaking his house and holding his sister's limp body in its hand and then wrecking Rukia.

[@zeroskaterz92]

@@abominationdesolation8322 Wtf are you even talking about? The series showed the progression of Toshiro and Zaraki growth. Wtf do you need flashback chapter on something that literally showed on screen?

[@ebering4.039]

I prefer it this way as well, it keeps the mystery instead of going the basic a** route of just slapping all the information right in the readers face with Flashback information dumps. We get precisely what the characters know even if those informations might even be wrong, the character just didn‘t know better. Like hitsugaya anf his bankai or the ritual that ends up sending souls into hell, the characters just weren‘t aware of that so why should we be? Giving out information for nothing is boring since it would take away all the theorising. You‘d just get the knowledge from 3rd person flashbacks instead of it being revealed later on after subtle foreshadowing

[@lo4tr]

@@abominationdesolation8322 Toshiro was fine the way it worked. Kenpachi DID kind of go from no Zanpakuto to Shikai to Bankai in a very fast pace... so, I guess there could be a bit more there, but I think it's rather fitting for Kenpachi to go too far too fast and get himself hurt in the process. The issue isn't with the individual reveals but, as you said, the pacing of the overall arc. Kubo's health problems certainly didn't help matters but understanding the 'why' behind a problem doesn't actually help things. Most of the things that take place in the back half of TYBW actually make logical sense... it's just that a lot of it isn't built up or explored the way it should have been due to how rushed it all became.

[@themrmezbah]

Also Unohana in her battle with kenpachi was able to seemingly instantly heal kenpachi. So that does mean she was purposely healing others slow other times in the series😂

[@MrTuffpup]

😂😂

[@agni_oh]

It most likely also took a significant toll on her since Kenpachi eventually overpowered her

[@abominationdesolation8322]

Kaido mainly restores a person's energy and forces their body to replenish itself more quickly than usual. For someone like Zaraki who is like a mountain of reishi, it was probably his own body healing itself that fast due to having the reishi holes (cuts) plugged. So yes and no. Unohana could heal other people just as fast but it would take her more effort since their bodies aren't as powerful. Remember, skin has to be divided from existing skin cells; the magic can only multiply what's already there. Otherwise healing magic would cause everyone to heal back with the same DNA; it wouldn't even match their skin tone. Their bodies might even reject such a thing.

[@abominationdesolation8322]

Also I think the freshness of the wounds are a factor. AND it may be easier for Unohana to heal wounds that she herself has caused. Remember when Orihime had trouble rejecting the reishi storm around the wound Ulquiorra left on Ichigo? I think it's similar for Unohana. She needs a little more time when dealing with wounds caused by exotic reishis. But shinigami reishi, especially her own, is very simple.

[@themrmezbah]

​@@abominationdesolation8322All of what you said is most likely true, but there's also the potential that Unohana may be purposely not healing as much as she should. She gives me that creepy vibe, that maybe she wants you to stay hurt, like she gets off on pain and misery idk.

Kubo's foreshadowing is amazing, since Soul society arc, Aizen is talking about the vacancy of the soul kings throne. 👍

[@sneakygin]

I like how aizen related questions are about his plans , intelligence and fashion 😂.

[@vastos2587]

When Kubo said that Kenpachi wasn't capable of destroying Gerards cross I don't think he meant he didn't have the knowledge to destroy it, I think he quite literally meant Kenpachi didn't have the power to destroy it. I think it can only be destroyed by Yhwach or someone in a similar position as him.

[@oghaze9318]

I think he meant that at the time of the fight Kenpachi didn’t master his bankai so couldn’t wield the power to cut the cross

[@Prushinthespirit]

I truly hope that in the anime Gerard, just like in the manga, will remain undefeated.

[@lo4tr]

I think it simply requires more than just brute force, which is why Kenpachi would be unable to do so in his current state. I think of it like an Aizen situation, where the characters don't have the current means to be able to bypass the immortality aspect.

[@jackinthecube]

Actually, I think the cross itself got stronger each time Gerard came back to life and by the time kenpachi cut Gerard in half Kenpachi had made Gerard's cross too strong for even himself

[@LordXemnas13]

For senjumarus age is it possible that the uniform always looked like that and she just upgraded them later with her ability and knowledge

[@serpientaanterrkova9134]

That's actually interesting that aizen knew about ukitake, i never really understood why those 2 specifically had that conversation, now i have an answer !

[@abominationdesolation8322]

When he says "not you... or me..." it seems to imply Aizen is special like Ukitake. Hikone/Gremmy may be the "brain" of the SK; but who is to say Aizen isn't the "mind" or perhaps the "spine" of the SK? Maybe he's the "loin"? In the myth of Osiris, the god is cut into many pieces by his angry brother Set, and all but his genitals are found. It sounds vulgar but I could see Bleach riff on it from a symbolic and mythological appreciation perspective.

[@lo4tr]

@@abominationdesolation8322 I think it just comes down more to Aizen believing in his inherent superiority. Him having a god complex is pretty much the basis for his character, so comparing himself to the on Shinigami literally housing a god fits.

[@abominationdesolation8322]

@@lo4tr Usually there is some fate-based reason as to why someone in particular is transcendent. I'd say evolving with the hogyoku was just part of Aizen's destiny. To me it's clear there is a divine aspect going on. Just as every fullbringer has a piece of the soul king, and powerful lieutenants (who could have been captain) like Rangiku are born with them too. I believe Aizen was either born with a divine fragment... or... a speculative theory of mine is that the shinigami are living in a small pond, and the SK was an incarnation of a god who exists on higher planes than shinigami do. I think the Soul King is based on the myth of Ameterasu sending her grandson and 5 guardian deities (the 5 noble family heads) to rule the Earth. When she finds out the nobles betrayed her grandson, I think there might be a war on Soul Society. But we have a Hell arc to do first and it's dubious if Kubo has even considered such a thing.

[@hexon336]

A thought that popped in my head is that it could be possible that Sokken may have been the instructor of Quilge. Quilge seemed to be the only Sternritter aware of Uryu before he was introduced to the rest of Yhwach's army as well as Uryu being related to Sokken. It could be that the dropping of old Quincy techniques was the reason Sokken left and Quilge being his student toke over the role of instructor after.

[@abominationdesolation8322]

That line about how Uryu should be stronger than him --- seems to imply Uryu was already sternritter level before the war started and Ichigo just never noticed. Ichigo was so high on his own horse that he didn't notice Uryu jump from lieutenant to super captain, since Ichigo was already above all that. Remember when Uryu did better against Ulquiorra than Ichigo did? That was foreshadowing; not bad scaling. I'd like to add that the alien-like density of Ulquiorra's reiatsu may have played a role in amping up Uryu's own abilities. But Uryu is impressive for being able to *control* that alien level of power and stay calm in a near death situation at the same time. Truly a wonderful character.

​@@abominationdesolation8322Uryu is also Yhwach and Zangetsu notice the similar design.

​@@abominationdesolation8322you're thinking too much. Quilge's line was based purely on expectations and estimation of potential Ishida can reach.

[@officiallyjan8596]

Quilge's line makes sense even without having any personal connections to Sokken, and given the prevailing theory about Quilge at the moment is that he was a member of Yhwach's original army from 1000 years ago, he'd be more than 20 times older than Sokken so it would make no sense for him to have been taught by his junior.

In my opinion saying that Bambietta is the weakest Bambi simply because she is ranked the lowest on hand to hand and the second lowest on “Blut” is the same as saying that Kenpachi is one of the weaker captains because his sword technique is bad and because he can’t use Kido

[@Prushinthespirit]

Kubo placing her so low seemed like he didn't think much about it himself. Either he just excluded her features from First Invasion out of equation, or he meant her zombified version. Because it contradicts with what was shown in both manga and anime. She was giving Komamura a hard time during First Invasion, rushing in melee with a sword. And had enough strength to cross blades with him. Judging her melee power simply by hand-to-hand isn't right, since most quincies don't fight hand-to-hand anyways. And her Blut rank is downright nonsensical. Giselle can't use Blut even to save herself and gets pierced by basic Kensei. But Bambietta, who got hit by both Komamura's bankai and her own explosions, and got away with minor injuries, is somehow weaker in Blut?

[@blankname2445]

@@Prushinthespirit​​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠Giselle probably doesn’t much opt to protect himself with Blut given the fact that his power if anything plays into taking attacks. Bambietta on the other hand could simply be more skillful with it, but with a less raw potent Blut - which could still end up in a lower rank, since it seems Kubo meant overall instead of just raw potency or skill alone. As for the hand-to-hand ranking, it’s important to remember that hand-to-hand is actually a term used for fighting close quarters in any way, so that could include swords or other close range weaponry as well. That said, uh, yeah I disagree with the rank too because if anything she seemed to be one of the better general close combatants of the Bambis.

[@officiallyjan8596]

@@blankname2445 Giving a stats for "Blut Proficiency" is completely pointless though if said stat only reflects technical skill regardless of the resulting power. Giselle's Blut was so weak that literally everyone who ever hits her with anything cut through her like paper, while Bambietta has the mentioned feat of tanking Kommamura's bankai + her own explosions to the face and surviving fully intact and only really getting knocked down. Remember when Hollowfied Tousen took "just" Kommamura's bankai and it crinkled his left arm like paper?

[@blankname2445]

@@officiallyjan8596 Proficiency does mean skill though, so if it was taken at a literal face value it’s entirely possible Bambietta could be less skillful with Blut. Could be as simple as Giselle having exceptionally skillful use of the attack-type Blut, or simply refusing to use it defensively due to his Schrift power making it somewhat pointless to avoid 99% of injuries while focusing on attack power to play into his strengths. Then again I don’t think we know if any of the Bambis knew how to use Blut Arterie or not. If it’s accounting for a balance between potency and skill, I presume Giselle allows himself to get hurt but actually has the potency like I said above and uses it for the offensive Blut. Or maybe Bambietta is just really poor in skill but has exceptional potency, which still falls behind. It’d probably help if we knew whether Kubo meant the literal definition of proficiency or the general term of overall ability.

[@abominationdesolation8322]

Ichigo's getsuga IS short range too... he's just really, really strong... Ichigo has way more latent reishi while Isshin is better at controlling it. At close range this makes Isshin seem stronger, but Ichigo has the reserves to project his energy much further without feeling exhausted. I'm talking purely about shinigami power here though; like comparing end of SS Ichigo vs. FKT Isshin. If a shinigami is like a giant magnet, then they have a field of influence where they can project reishi and have it quickly return to them. Isshin can fire getsugas just as far as Ichigo but the problem is that the energy won't magnetize back toward him that far out; he'd have to go collect it. In a fight you can't always control where you will be and projecting that far out might leave you exhausted. Ichigo's quincy blood also plays a role in the efficiency of how his energy returns to him.

“Shinigami who achieve bankai can release their shikai without the release command” OK! Now that we remember this fact, I would like everyone to turn their heads over to cour 2 of TYBW. Before sajin and bambi fought, momo showed up and released he zanpakuto without saying a word😭😭😭😭

There's nothing saying members of the Zero Division are promoted immediately upon inventing something. Like the Nobel Prize, it might take a while to be acknowledged. EDIT: I think the prime candidates for Quilge's studebts are the Bambies, Äs Nödt, and the other newcomers. Liltotto is probably his best because she's the only competent soldier of the bunch. As for Zanpakuto names recycling, I don't think that is the same as a Zanpakuto reappearing. It could simply be that the name is correlated to a completely different set of abilities each time.

[@oghaze9318]

I think Senjumaru was Kisuke’s mentor or relative, his bankai kinda looks like her.

[@officiallyjan8596]

Seeing as the identity, shape, ability and name of a zanpakutou is a reflection of the wielder's core as a person, I think it makes sense at face-value that similar individuals may develop zanpakutou with the same-or-similar shapes, abilities or names in general.

[@MrGksarathy]

@@officiallyjan8596 Of course, but that's not the same as a Zanpakuto returning.

[@JohnGlow2]

11:56 Isshin actually hints at this too. When he meets grandfisher again he mentions that Soul Reapers have to pay careful attention to the size of their zanpakuto otherwise they’d be carrying sky scrapers as well. This implies that not only are the zanpakuto manifestations of their souls, but they also have some degree of control of altering its appearance. We know as a zanpakuto wielder grows stronger, their swords can and do often change appearance, we see this specifically with Ichigo and Nnoitra. I wonder if, with as much expertise as someone like Unohana has, if one could eventually increase the size of their weapon and its abilities as well. I.E maybe Nnoitra could increase his number of arms and the weapon shapes or Ichigo’s Fullbring Bankai could increase the number of prongs on the blade.

Which members of the Wandenreich’s Sternritters are veterans who served in the first war and stayed by Yhwach’s side while remaining hidden.

I always thought that Mayuri's distain for Urahara was bigger than anything else but he feels treated unfair by Senjumaru. Senjumaru was always a rather quite and reserved character but that's probably because she also has a lot of dirt to hide. I think Mayuri is waiting exactly for the day that Urahara is considered a villain. So that he can legally work against him, outsmart and kill him. Urahara is considered the Batman of Bleach and Mayuri would be the Riddler of the story.

[@Prushinthespirit]

Mayuri is the one who's known for his invention of drugs, devices and careful preparations to develop counter measures and turn enemy's strength against himself. While himself lacking supernatural speed, strength or power level. So, he's the Batman here. Comparing Urahara to Mr. Fantastic would be more appropriate.

Tosen’s Zanpakuto abilities having attributes of his own ability of sensory deprivation from his Shikai and Bankai releases and the ability to rain swords from the sky would make sense if it had the ability of the previous user.

[@cadeshanley218]

23:39 That was my very thought as well prior to Kubo confirming it. It does make sense. Since Hollow Powers are poison to Quincies and the Medallions are obviously made by Quincies, they know that if stealing Ichigo's Bankai was possible, it would poison and kill its owner and return to Ichigo automatically like a Trojan Horse. Even if Ebern is actually an Arrancar, he disowned that reality part of himself for being a Quincy, the Medallion still wouldn't take Ichigo's Bankai. Because as I said, it was made for Quincies to steal and utlize the Bankai, not for Arrancars to do such. So when the Soul Reapers of the Stolen Bankai took the pills, its basically like the Medallions are choking on any food that got stuck down the throat and basically got the hierarch maneuver to spit the poisoned Hollowfied Bankai out back to its proper owner.

When Kubo says "If the opponent is capable" in relation to Gerard I don't think he's referring to Zaraki being "incapable" of destroying Gerard's core in terms of not having the strength or power to do so. The core itself seems to not always be present. It appeared when Zaraki cut Gerard in half but wasn't present when Adult Hitsugaya froze Gerard and Byakuya destroyed his head. The core never reappeared but Gerard reconstituted himself anyway. I think it's more that Zaraki, in his mindless state, didn't react fast enough to destroy the core in the brief moment it appeared.

[@otakugameraquarius1883]

We can assume that, since she talked to Yhwach as if she knew Yama personally and people were wearing shihakushos since long before the war, Senjumaru was at least the third member of Squad Zero. I’d say Tenjiro joined after the war since he taught healing to Unohana, and I personally believe he was the captain of squad 4 after Chikiri Shijima, his promotion leading to a vacancy for captain which Unohana filled. Similarly, this also shows Mayuri’s age. Since he was a member of her unofficial research division before the time of the war, he’s just as ancient. It could explain why he gets away with talking to Yama with such a great amount of disrespect, not to mention that he talked to him about failing to kill Yhwach as if he was there also. Also, don’t forget. Mayuri said he chose to stay in the Maggot’s Nest on his own during TBTP Another thing to consider is that just because it says that Yoruichi developed the cat transformation ability doesn’t mean the same thing as her creating it. She likely learned of it through family history and past techniques and then decided to recreate it in herself to act freely

[@abominationdesolation8322]

It's frustrating trying to fit the RG into the timeline... everyone but Hikifune plays such a pivotal role in the formation of soul society that I can't see them being anything less than general tier even back during the first gotei. As for Kirinji, his baths aren't exactly pivotal and his healing maybe isn't as iconic as the zanpakuto, but the narrative does seem to put him as someone who is superior to Unohana; who by her name Kenpachi should be the 1st or 2nd strongest captain of the originals. Meaning Kirinji was already above the station of captain if he wasn't one of the original gotei. It doesn't make sense to me that he would become the captain of squad 4 when he would likely already be a RG. But then it begs the question: who else has been promoted from gotei to RG besides Hikifune? Did Hikifune replace a previous, or the original, RG member of her palace city? I assume there have always been 5 RG just as there have always been 5 founding noble clans. Kyoraku implied RG was a promotion from captain which implies Hikifune is not the first. But maybe she is; or maybe she's only the second to do so, including her predecessor? Or perhaps the previous iterations of the royal guard existed before shihakushos and even zanpakutos? A million years is a long time. The SK for example doesn't wear a shihakusho; nor does he have a zanpakuto. Curious, no?

[@otakugameraquarius1883]

@@abominationdesolation8322 Kirinji was the one who created kaido (healing Kido) while Kirio made Gikon (artificial soul), not Mod Souls like Kon but those like Chappy. The Royal guard are made of people who created the soul society’s history. Ichibe was the first to obtain Bankai and is millions of years old, and Oetsu is likely just as old having made the Zanpakuto. Considering Senjumaru seems to directly know Yama, she can probably be stated to be a couple thousand years old. She also made the shihakusho, and from what it looks like, it’s highly possible that people were wearing them since way long before the war. Yama and Chojiro are about 2k years old, and if they were wearing shihakushos way back then, then she’s also over 2k (and similarly, Mayuri…). She was likely promoted before the war 1k years ago. As I stated earlier, I believe that Kirinji replaced Chikiri, and then because of his promotion, Unohana took his position and formed the healing corps. Kirio, well we saw her promotion was 100 years ago. I also believe that Yama likely would have been promoted since he was the one who made the Gotei 13 and Shin’o Academy, but because he was the one leading the criminals as head captain as its highest authority, he couldn’t just be promoted like that so easily

[@lo4tr]

@@abominationdesolation8322 There is no set base or limit to the Royal Guard. They are chosen to ascend because they created something pivotal to the history of the Soul Society. Ichibei would have been alone in his tenure until Nimaiya came along. Senjumaru would have come next, as you see the Shikausho being worn by Shinigami even before the first Quincy war. Tenjiro followed, having been the creator of Kaido and teaching it to Unohana sometime after the Quincy war, when she grew bored with fighting and wanted to prolong her victims suffering. The thing about those four is that none of them would have been established as Court Guard members, because Yamamoto wouldn't have recruited them. Senjumaru is a weaver and Tenjiro is a healer. Yamamoto was only looking for brutes to use in his forces. Kirio came along later after the Court Guard had been established and was the only one directly promoted from her station. It's slightly wonky due to not having direct dates on a lot of things, but nothing directly contradicts the established canon.

Senjumaru could be special division, Yama recruited the super genius souls to do the research while 13 divisions are mainly focused on combat Oetsu and Yamamoto could have known each other way before he founded Gotei because Yama himself was open the academy for shinigami that mean he must have known where he can get the sword from the best smith

I am so mad that he took so long to answer the question of Hollow Masks used with Bankai, if it was exclusive to Ichigo or not. Since he said it's the case, that mean Kensei and Rose could have Hollowified with their Bankai. My question is: Why didn't they Hollowify? They clearly didn't have a problem with Hollowifying the Gotei 13 (albeit briefly) to help negate the Bankai Theft Medallions. I hope someone who has a subscription on Klub Outside asks this question.

Name is very important, 18:45 thats true, then let me ask you, what is ichigo release command? All people agree that yachiru is kenpachi zanpakuto, and kubo answer that young yachiru is simmilar to young zangetsu, Isn't that clear enough to say old man zangetsu is ichigo's true zanpakuto.

Ichigo's Shikai is a constant release so it doesn't have a shikai release command.

[@User5hdbh]

@@DBZimran before tybw chapter release everyone know that kenpachi is also have constant release just like ichigo, but since tybw release even byakuya confirm it, when he see kenpachi shikai for the first time, tell me what byakuya said about it? Also did you notice that kazui zanpakuto(personal asauchi) is exactly look like ichigo bankai. Byakuya tell ichigo when he use bankai for the first time, he said it is not bankai. What nimaya make for ichigo? Is that ichigo asauchi(personal zanpakuto), shikai, or bankai? Remember there is 3 or 4 step of zanpakuto after created, 1 general zanpakuto (all look same) 2 personal zanpakuto (have different form depend on weilder, you also explain this topic with kenpachi, right?) 3 shikai (depend on its wielder) 4 bankai (depend on its wielder) If you count 1 there will be 4, if not there will be 3, based on nimaya explanation which type of zanpakuto that ichigo have on the end of manga(clue:it has no tsuba, and of 4 step of zanpakuto that has no tsuba is?) Also you talk about ichibe ink that covered old man zangetsu name, let say it is yhwach(eventhough there is no proof if it true or not, bc old man zangetsu himself said he is yhwach yet he is not), so old man zangetsu still can talk normally, suppress ichigo true power(you can't suppress something if you don't have the same amount of power to supress it, right?) but yhwach only able to talk after ichibe give yhwach name black ant, in simple way, ichigo have no power bc old man zangetsu name is covered by ichibe black ink but in the same time old man zangetsu can suppress ichigo insane power, so how it can be?

If Senjumaru and Oh-etsu invented the Shihakushou and Zanpakuto respectively, then that must mean they were present during the OG gotei time as the OG captains were also having the Shihakushou and the zanpakuto? If so, then why are they so much younger than Yamamoto and unohana ?

[@LG22475]

They are probably around the same age, remember the zero division were given Oken bones, so they probably age slightly differently.

[@ironclad-m3q]

When talking about Senjumaru and Nimaiya, people are quick to assume they're from the beginning of the Shinigami era simply because their inventions are integral to them. We forget that it could be as simple as: before Shihakusho and Zanpakuto were created, Shinigami used common garments and weapons.

[@MrGksarathy]

Ō'etsu probably is quite ancient because both Yamamoto and Chojuro were using Shikai and Bankai over 2000 years ago like that was normal. With regards to Senjumaru, her comments imply she's over 1000 years old, but I think her induction into the Zero Division happened much later.

[@ironclad-m3q]

@@MrGksarathy They're old for sure, but not as old as shinigami existence itself. In CFYOW, it's stated that Yamamoto fought Ikomikidomoe with bare hand. Then Oetsu sealed it in a sword. This is probably the start of Zanpakuto existence.

[@MrGksarathy]

@@ironclad-m3q The way CFYOW worded it, it seems to me that the concept of a Zanpakuto predated Ikomikidomoe, but maybe the evolved Zanpakuto/Shinuchi/Bankai hadn't been invented yet. Also, Yama never fought Ikomikidomoe, Ichibei did. He also stripped its name and renamed it.

Just want to add more context to the Q and A at 23:54. The rankings are based off of the end of CFYOW. Bambietta is ranked low because at this point she is a Zombie and slowly regaining her mind back and remember she is heavily nerfed as a Zombie. Liltotto also has consumed Pepe and other beings so that could be playing a part in it. Its matter of proficiency with hand to hand combat and the use of Blut meaning Kubo means who is the most skilled not strongest. Candice and Bambietta are actually really strong but when it comes to a fist fight they would struggle since they have short tempers and rely heavily on their shrifts. Liltotto is simply a smarter fighter and her ranking with Blut is due to her being just better at using it. What makes Bambietta strong is her shrift which means she didn't really feel the need to rely on Blut and hand to hand combat because she uses a sword and she shoots explosive projectiles and makes things around her explode. Same story with Candice, lots of juice in the shrift the thunderbolt and it is really deadly but she is not the smartest fighter because she would rather just overpower her opponents rather than find a smarter way to beat them.

[@tobiisagoodboy8510]

Based on the specific parameters they used, yes, Bambi is the weakest. However, her Schrift is far more powerful than the others in a direct confrontation. You see Candice pull out her Vollstandig big flashy attack on Ichigo and do similar damage as Bambietta casually exploding her medallion. Add that onto the fact that Bambi continuously spamming similar explosions, often times dozens at once, shows that she has greater ability to manipulate Reishii than the others. There's a reason it took the literal immortal character to fight her because she is one of the most outright destructive Quincies there.

[@Snzn_7]

I do think that A person won't be immediately get sent to Squad Zero once they iinvented the the technology/stuff that they get promoted for. Basically they need to tick to checkmark on the list for promotion. They need to invent something revolutionary tand next is have a bankai dangerous enough. Like yes Senjumaru did made the shihakusho but wasn't really "strong enough" or probably has a bankai to be part of the first Gotei Captains. So of the likely scenario is Senjumaru is a mere lieutenant or an officer during the first Gotei generation. Then once she got a dangeorus bankai then the Central 46 got the incentive to send her to the Squad Zero. An expample for this maybe Hikefuni, since she did not immediately got promoted to Squad 0 on day one that she made the Mod Soul. Like the research went for years into branching developments making the Soul Candy and the banning of Mod Soul. Like she probably got promoted once her Bankai grew to be so dangerous so the promoted her to Squad Zero. I do think the plotthread from SAWFY still holds value that the nobles also uses the Squad Zero promotion to lowkey imprison powerful persons that they think they can't control.
