Imagine if Ichigo, Renji, and Uryu never made it - could Aizen save the Bleach universe alone? Let me know your thoughts down below!

[@CaptainKotetsu]

I don’t think so. Almighty is just too broken

[@QuincyArmy-dd7mb]

AIZEN is a key player but never the key of victory I believe honestly

[@theonewhoasked7254]

Aizen couldn't put a scratch yhwach. Only ichigo has the ap capable of actually damaging the quincy king. Kyoka suigetsu was his saving grace. Even then the moment yhwach realizes he's unde it, he breaks it and puts a hole through aizen. Aizen is powerful but he's not on sk yhwachs level.

[@gabrielrasilva]

Tommo if the anime is made as an complemente to the manga, it is obivous that Yuha will win, he stated that he can kill Aizen and the only reason he do not do it for now is it will take time and in that momente he dont have the time nescessary to do this.

[@fiore0364]

I think kyoka suigetsu is the ability, with which Aizen can spit in the face of God

[@ssjdeadpool]

Yhwach: *claims to hate violence* Also Yhwach: *Attacks a man tied to a chair*

[@MonographicSingleheadedM-sp2wk]

that man tied to the chair was a being that probably Yhwach didnt even dream of ever killing tbh. I believe that attack was more like a brag, "see what I can do?" kinda thing lol. they are both narcissistic sons of byrches XDDDDDDDDDD a mutual greeting from two equals essentially. tho I doubt EITHER could kill the other.

Aizens Bankai is the biggest variable here imo, so frustrating we have literally no clue what it could be. Aizen's Bankai augmented by the Hyogyoku could be something insane.

[@johndinh2913]

Honestly it would have been cool if it worked like izanagi. Where his shikai puts his opponent in a illusion his bankai would make his illusions reality. I guess similar to Grammy but not in a way where your are limited by imagination.

[@JohnGlow2]

I feel like it couldve been a factor, but if he didnt use it in the battle against what is essentially God, whose whole plan was to assimilate and merge the worlds, then it might be one of those ones that requires a very specific situation to be used in.

[@bluemoon1716]

I like to think that Aizen himself is the bankai. He took over the original user who first activated bankai.

[@johndinh2913]

@@seel2835 true especially with Aizen’s intelligence. It would have been a great time for Aizen to pull a bankai. Kubo should have just put it in seeing as he wrote himself into a corner with the arrow and ichigo cutting him in half. Obviously had time constraints but if there was a time, this would have been it. Really didn’t like how ichigo bankai was never explained or if he got another ability. Hopefully we’ll get something in the anime

[@Nobodyfrom2003]

For what he mentioned, his Bankai isn't at variable anymore, he fused completely with his sword, meaning he was already at his peak shinigami power. So a Bankai would be like descending in powe level

[@bluecrabgaming]

I hope that final battle has some major changes to it when it's shown in the anime. I think everyone would love to see Aizen's Bankai

[@ABlackGuyAdept]

I hope they leave it to be a surprise. And not spoil it in the trailer like Shinji's. It wouldav been so awesome seeing him use bankai out of nowhere but we're going into the second cour expecting Shinji's Bankai.

[@eggmcmuffin6067]

I think it will be changed and greatly expanded upon. Just look what the anime did with ichigo and Yhwachs first encounter, went from one attack in the manga to a whole fight, and showed a new move from Yhwach. It’s safe to say that the last fight will get the same treatment

[@lolsnez7542]

It wont change but it will expand on it

[@Saintsrow1824]

Ain’t he like two stages above bankai? and what would his bankai even be

[@ReughTheMushroom34]

aizen dont have a bankai or he doesnt use it

[@radiantkratos5562]

An Aizen video will always get a thanks from me. As for the illusion being broken after Aizen gets stabbed, maybe it’s because the same rule still applies that if you’re touching his zanpakuto it’s power stops working on you. And since him and his zanpakuto are one now, that means touching him. Unfortunately I think you’re right that he would probably lose to Ywach in a 1v1 lol, but I choose to believe that his Bankai was his real Ace card that he never had to use. Maybe it’s something like a “Shatter” ability like what you said in your Aizens bankai theories video. I could totally see him holding up his sword and saying “Bankai… now Revolt, Kyoka Suigetsu” giving him the power to shatter any ability that tries to assert control over him. Like Ywachs almighty power to choose his future. That would also play into Aizens character of not accepting anyone ruling over him or choosing his future.

[@ReughTheMushroom34]

Maybe we will see something in the anime. I saw an interesting theory stating that Aizen's bankai is an illusion on reality itself which could be cool

[@samuraigundam0079]

As far as Aizen being completely destroyed and whether Hogyoku would resurrect him and how, I would look at the moment where Aizen tried to use Hadou number 90. That technique, presumably, crushed him completely, only for him to be physically reconstructed instantly.

[@nkhuwachiti1976]

With the way the anime handled the Yamamoto versus Fake Juha battle. I hope Aizen versus Juha gets a full or at least sizeable portion of the episode dedicated to it.

[@deathmark1940]

Bro they will fix that fight bc its already rushed

[@Chaviasmusic]

Seeing how rushed the manga was, there's a chance we could maybe get a look at Aizen's bankai in the anime. Won't be this season though if it gets animated.

[@nkhuwachiti1976]

@@Chaviasmusic Kubo is quite involved in the anime so I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw extra bankai’s. I believe he wants to redeem what happened with the second half of the arc and how poorly the ending was received.

[@MrMythul]

You should do a video discussing whether or not Renji was even there at the final fight. After Aizen is removed from the battlefield he isn't seen again. Renji likely wouldn't even be able to hurt Yhwach at this point and Yhwach notes that Aizen wouldn't protect Renji. Aizen wouldn't do this, we even directly see him attack a shinigami previously in the arc. I suspect Renji never joined the fight against Yhwach, simply Kyoka suigetsu made an image of Renji in Yhwach's mind.

[@aliveandwellinisrael2507]

Yeah, I've come to think that over time too.

[@MrMythul]

@@aliveandwellinisrael2507 he disappears completely and his bankai didn't remain broken despite us seeing his break. We all know how Bankai work with being broken, however Orihime could still probably heal his bankai as she did with Ichigos. Especially after Yhwach is defeated. Tsukishima could create another new timeline that wasn't affected by Yhwach's changes. Renjis only contribution is when he gets his arm cut off and gets blown away, however Aizen is then missing his left arm so we KNOW in this instance it was Aizen looking like Renji because of KS

[@glizzynator5258]

Remember that Ywach pierced Aizen’s body so he comes into contact with the KS core power which dispels the illusion. The same reason why Yama knew it was Aizen when he was pierced by the sword or why the illusion ended when Halli was hit by it. Therefore, it’s not unreasonable to assume that the same thing happened when Aizen was pierced by Ywach.

Aizen is not in fact immortal. When u get back into Yhwach's first meeting with Sosuke he stated that killing him could have taken a lot of time and this was kind of the reason why Yhwach wanted to convince Aizen to side with him. So once again -He is not in fact immortal.

​@@sathuria_pendragonthere's different types of immortality and limits to said immortality.

[@alispeed5095]

@@sathuria_pendragon Well against time few can claim immortality, for all we know what Yuha was talking about could have taken years to accomplish. But we also know that aizen managed to survive yuha seemingly eating him? whatever happened to him he managed to live through it. And this was a yuha that was not even comparable to the one that said the words you noted. So if almighty yuha couldnt kill aizen, who can?

[@sathuria_pendragon]

@@alispeed5095 Based on previous Yhwach speech u can clearly tell that u would have to use some kind of time worthy method in order to bond away Hogyoku from Aizen's soul which as a final result granted Sosuke the immortality. It's no argument that "if SK empowered Yhwach couldnt do that then who can". Yhwach clearly HAD a method. I mean there's no point to even argue it. I don't even know what an argument that is. FYI almighty Yhwach couldn't achieve his goals after all and got defeated as a result by the combined forces of Ryuken, Ichigo and Aizen. So it's not even an argument. Yhwach (as tite kubo stated in the moment I mentioned) HAD a way. It was just too time consuming. and the almighty "aspect" of yhwach is not an argument. Due to his ultimate defeat at the end :p Hogyoku is after all a thing that was out of reach for Soul King aswell one could say that it's even an anomaly. If you use the same logic u brought then ask urself why didn't Yhwach achieve his goals with his Soul King-empowered form? If he was so powerful. It's just invalid logic. Aizen's immortality was granted to extreme extend by Hogyoku, and u can clearly tell Yhwach had a method, was willing to carry over aizen to his side cause considered it as a threat. One of the special war threads. Just cause of that, and since time was a limiting factor that ultimately doomed him well u can clearly see why he did not bother with it.

[@ajay_omega8967]

I might be wrong here but I assumed that Kyouka Suigetsu's general weakness was the same as Tousen's, that anyone directly touching the blade could see through its effects. That's why his deception is always revealed when he retaliates and cuts someone, because in that moment he's touched them with his blade. It makes sense that when Yamamoto was stabbed by him, and Aizen asked how he knew he was real, Yama said "I could never mistake this riatsu in my gut" (something like that). Based on that observation, Gin made sure to touch Kyouka Suigetsu before activating his own Bankai when he attacked Aizen in the real Kurakura Town... Given that Aizen kinda fused with Kyouka Suigetsu and his shown both using and not using a physical blade against Ywach, and puts Ywach under Kyouka Suigetsu without the physical blade in Muken, I'd assumed that Kyoka Suigetsu's weakness transfered to his whole body. Ywach could finally see through the illusion because he put his hand through Aizen's chest, therefore touching Kyouka Sugeitsu. Up until that point, Aizen had been foghting with Kido and I dont think they made physical contact... When Ywach says Kyouka Suigetsu was undone, that may have been either because he had literally punched through it or because he technically died. I could be entirely wrong here (maybe my memory is inaccurate) but that's always how i interpreted that fight.

[@Twix44]

Nice one 👍

[@skyreapery2n164]

He never really broke out the hypnosis.... And also you have to touch his (Aizen) zanpakuto before he activates it... But during the fight he had it active ALL the time

You need to reread the manga again.. Gin said that you have to touch it before it activated KS not after Aizen already using KS.

@@rein1329 Yet he still touched it before attacking Aizen. And Yamamoto said he could feel Aizen's/Kyouka Suigetsu's riatsu through the sword when he was stabbed. That statement and Gin's actions make it evident that he touching the sword provide some protection against it.

@@ajay_omega8967 It isn't and yamamoto never break free from it and never stated anywhere other than headcanon, he have better chance to sense Aizen because his sword was already inside his stomach. There are isn't a single statement who said touching the sword provide some protection against KS. Go read the Manga again. Actually since you are prob never read it directly let me quote it for you using official translation: >>Chapter 414: The only way to escape Kyoka Suigetsu"s power is to "touch" the blade "before complete hypnosis" has been activated. Just touching the blade will do nothin if they already under KS.

[@SatoshiSosuke]

A couple of thoughts about this prompt. Firstly, I think maybe because Yhwach was touching Aizen, it counts as Kyoka Suigetsu's weakness. It's speculation of course, but Aizen did fuse with his blade so perhaps grabbing Aizen now removes the illusion. Second, I think if push came to shove, and with Aizen being the last bastion, the Hogyoku would wake up to make Aizen evolve again if Aizen really wished to protect his Soul Society, but more refined possibly. Maybe it would be where Aizen's beyond bankai form comes in lol.

[@nndayo6408]

Aizen is known to continously evolve. Removing every weakness after every transformation. Do you think aizen, after Gin fight, wouldn't try to change this?

[@5upreme_K1ng]

A couple of corrections: 1. The Kurohitsugi Aizen did on himself back in the Shinigami HQ wasn't full power since he didn't do the incantations. 2. Aizen does regenerate. The last chapter of Bleach showed Aizen with all his injuries gone. And although this isn't really a correction but rather a speculation, I'd like to think what caused KS to deactivate was Yhwach physically touching Aizen. It's pretty much known that Aizen fused with his zanpakuto and since he already used KS on Yhwach before off of a look, then it's safe to assume the weakness of KS is also essentially imbedded into Aizen as well. If touching the zanpakuto before makes one immune to the illusions, then perhaps touching Aizen's current form would be the same.

[@kakashihatake1029]

Point 1 is true but clearly he was unable to break out which is why Yhwach had to do it

[@--...--...--...]

The Almighty has the ability to see and alter the future; he was put under its spell before he attained The Almighty, and therefor, he can't change being under its spell, as all futures he is apart of are are preceded by their interaction where he is put under the spell of KS. That being said, with Aizen, he's really beyond logic, and could have made that the illusion he wanted Ywach to see, in order to instill a false sense of hope.

[@5upreme_K1ng]

@@--...--...--... How i see it, the Almighty can't distinguish illusions between reality because at the end of the day, both are still possible futures in his visions. I don't think it's necessarily because he was placed under the spell prior to activating his Almighty. Plus, KS deactivating soon after Yhwach stabbed Aizen kinda suggests that touching the latter did indeed do something to the spell. But again, that's just my interpretation, yours is ok as well.

[@sethro6818]

The last point makes a lot of sense kind of like when Yamamoto grabbed aizens arm during the fake town ark

[@kakashihatake1029]

@--...--...--... this is true but I also don't understand how Yhwach broke out of Ichimojis effects tbh. I think Kubo just decided to suck Aizen off and make him powerful enough to be relevant in the final fight.

[@ic8840]

This has become my favorite series of yours! Time for a heavyweight hypothetical. Komamura vs Kensei!

[@TekGenbu]

The reason why Aizen shikai ended in this particular moment is because Gin Ichimaru said it himself. If you touch kyoka suigetsu you aren’t effected by it. Aizen literally fused with his sword. So if you touch him the effect fades. Yhwach was touching him continuously while he was impaled. That’s my theory.

[@AjarTadpole7202]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you need to touch it before you fall under its spell? Like once you fall under Kanzen Saimen, it cant be undone unless Aizen chooses to undo it. Touching KS should only make it so you cant fall under Kanzen Saimen in the first place, IIRC

[@TekGenbu]

i actually cant remember if its before or during myself. but if what you said is true, its definitely an excellent point! @@AjarTadpole7202

[@VVooshbait]

​@@AjarTadpole7202Yes, I think a way safer approach is the fact that yhwach died, which ofc made kyoka instantly go away, but yhwach can just revive and then "know" kyoka, perfect counter for it actually

Gin explained perfectly why the illusion drops when Aizen attacks. You're in contact with his blade and the effects are dispelled when in contact with Kyoka Suigetdu

[@ginnungagapabyss5639]

Aizen’s the only character that you cannot be that mad about somebody saying “we didn’t see him going all out, so we do not know.”, he never used his bankai, he lost because apparently he wanted to lose according to Ichigo, he was not thinking properly, he was hardly even thinking logically, he was acting more like Kenpachi. Also he can adapt, and make it so his power can surpass his foes. I could actually see him killing or absorbing Yhwach, and possibly gaining his brave souls 6th anniversary design.

[@colgatemlp6368]

What if aizen never had a bankai, and he used his shikai to make everyone believe he mastered bankai. Just a thought crossed my mind

[@ericksquare1210]

But don't forget as well they was nerfing a good portion of his spiritual pressure cause remember when he wanted to get out of the chair or shoot down the sole king's palace the captain of squad 12 as well as the captain of squad 8/1 captain kyorraku explained to him he has limiters put in place internally that limited his abilities so What you saw and what he did in hado number 90 who's to say that's the strongest output he could have done with that? Also Yhwach made it perfectly clear it would be difficult for him to kill him so at a certain point he would have to put himself in a predicament that would put him in a range of being attacked or fatally wounded by Aizen,since he's fused with the Hyokoku

[@naboume466]

Ichigo didn't say Aizen lost because he wanted to lose, he said he returned to being a normal shinigami because that's what he wanted deep down, I don't think Aizen could have killed Yhwach precisely because of that, he returned to being a normal shinigami, and the fact that he banked on Ichigo finishing the job instead of doing it himself proves he couldn't have done it.

[@Salman.khan786]

I think I may know why the illusion is broken. As you mentioned the illusion is broken on Halibel and Hitsuguya as well, and the reason IS because they are getting hit. Remember the weakness of his Zanpakto is that, when someone is touching it they can’t be effected. So even when someone is slashed with it, technically they are in contact with his sword so the illusion will be broken. And after Aizen became a butterfly his Zanpakto fused with him if I remember correctly. So when Uha stabbed him with his arm he is in contact with the Zanpakto in a way so the illusion is worn off.

[@SinHurr]

I think it's worth mentioning that even without the chair, Aizen is still under a bunch of bindings. Shunsui only unlocked 3 of the... like 20 seals, if the floor in chapter 617 is all of them. Even Aizen's _clothes_ were built to bind his reiatsu. We're still seeing a fairly restricted Aizen during his fight with Bachi.

[@xxgamingdolphin939]

I feel like Kyoka Suigetsu stopped because Yhwach was touching Aizen himself, and touching the sword was originally the way to nullify it, so now it might be his body as they fused together, meaning Yhwach is technically touching Kyoka Suigetsu, therefor nullifying it.

[@jacobdarling1524]

I really like the notion of Aizen deactivating his shikai on purpose after thinking they had won. It would say a lot about him as a character. Not only that he was overconfident. But it also kinda shows trust towards Ichigo in that he dropped all illusions and isn’t trying to pull anything funny. Which would be huge for Aizen bc pulling one over on people is literally his whole deal.

[@davidkimbrough4818]

The illusion never ended until after the real ichigo arrived. Juha was still seeing ichigo even as Ichigo ran Juha through. It was just Kubos way of revealing to us the readers that it was really Aizen the whole time so we wouldnt be confused. Because some readers were actually still confused after the fact. Some readers still believed the Renji and Ichigo were there fighting alongside Aizen and didn't even catch on weeks after the manga chapter. Juha was still seeing Aizen up until Ichigo ran him through. Or perhaps the whole touching Kyoka Sueigetsu started to reveal the true Aizen since they were touching each other. Although Juha wasn't touching the blade, Aizen is fused with his zanpakuto so maybe touching him was enough to slowly reveal the true auzen.

[@Purriah]

Exactly. And as far as him talking about "the illusion ending when he cut harribel etc" Like, yeah, the blade cutting them = touching the blade. The whole reason Gin grabbed Aizen's blade is that it stops the illusion lol

Yhwach’s first attempt to kill Aizen resulted in him being accidentally freeing Aizen from the chair. Yhwach’s second attempt just resulted in KS being used on the Almighty. Yhwach’s 3rd attempt managed to temporarily immobilize Aizen the same way Ichigo did with the final Getsuga Tensho…..but as we all saw…Aizen came back Like he always does. At his strongest state he couldn’t permanently kill Aizen. Eventually Aizen would evolve to a state stronger than Yhwach. Might take a while…but Aizen is a patient man that doesn’t mind waiting for his plans to work out. Regardless…let’s not forget that KS was strong enough to do 2 things to the almighty: 1)Affect the Almighty’s sight of the future 2) Tricking Yhwach’s Almighty into thinking it’s fighting 3 people when it’s just 1 person.

I really also wish to see a fight between Aizen and Jugram, cause then their battle would be awesome

[@ThatStevenLouis]

Before investing this 22 minutes into hearing the great Tommo's opinion(s), my answer is "DEFINITELY yes" 😂 Going with what we definitively know to flesh out my "yes": the "completely" sealed Aizen (who's had several extra seals added on top of the ones Kisuke used to initially seal him) is stronger than where he left off prior to getting sealed by Kisuke. The ✌🏾base✌🏾Juhabach that one shot Yamamoto was toyed with by "completely" sealed Aizen to where he (Juhabach) not only had his perception of time distorted, but every other Sternritter (who all hold a portion of Juhabach's soul😉) was effected along with him. Juhabach had not only performed Auschwalen on his super soldiers, but also absorbed the Soul King, and awakened his Almighty prior to the final Auschwalen when he met Aizen again but on the battlefield; the only thing since their initial meeting that changed for Aizen was he'd had three of his multiple seals removed them he and and his chair brought outside by Kyoraku so that he could use his (Aizen's) reiatsu to protect what was left of Seireitei. While the real/physical mostly sealed Aizen's doing this, ✌🏾he✌🏾 also using a portion of his reiatsu, assaults the very real Juhabach who's awakened his Almighty AND absorbed the core essence of the Soul King. In this fight Juhabach The Almighty saw literally everything EXCEPT how a fight with Aizen would go: after he'd served ✌🏾Aizen's✌🏾 arm and punctured ✌🏾Aizen's✌🏾 chest, ✌🏾Aizen's✌🏾 response to this was "So you think you're fighting Ichigo, interesting..." because the real/physical Aizen was still sealed to that chair. The real Aizen was STILL literally gathering information and essentially toying with even this Juhabach; he was only biding time until the real Ichigo showed with the help of Tsukishima (who's Book Of The End is broken AF in itself) and Uryuu's special Quincy lore arrow. In (my) conclusion (aka a brief summary), Aizen would cake walk Juhabach. Outside what I used to "build the case", when Kyoraku initially went to Aizen and released the one seal, Aizen got up and walked to him in a manner so realistic that he was shocked even though he knew the physical Aizen was still strapped to that chair. The shock was the reality that "We don't have to unleash Aizen, we can just remove a couple more seals and use Aizen's per to end this while still keeping Aizen himself in check" along with "Aizen is still the greatest risk to Seireitei". Based off removing that one seal and having firsthand experience with what the Quincy are doing outside, Kyoraku was able to gage that if he unleashed Aizen like he planned, it was ultimately over, so he gaged and only released THREE of Aizen's many seals before bringing him outside, and he chose wisely; because if he would've just removed one more seal Aizen would've mopped the floor with his reiatsu manipulations alone before using it to research and undo the rest of the seals and actually freeing himself completely. So the way a grown-up sees "Aizen vs Juhabach: Who Wins" is Aizen wins with just one out of however extra seals added on were, release one more seal and it's over for sure even considering Almighty Soul King Juhabach was fighting a figment of Aizen's imagination via his Zanpaktou.........vs.........what current modern day folk are calling "Horn of Salvation" Ichigo after being blessed with Zero Squad training, after being blessed with coming across Tsukishima using Book Of The End on him, after being blessed Uryuu gaining a shift and using it with his father's hidden lore/history to create a weapon before the schrift being removed, and all that coming together to defeat Juhabach. If Aizen wasn't there experimenting and playing with him to give them time to come physically assault him, that shit was over; Almighty Soul King Juhabach was LITERALLY fighting air believing it was Ichigo and Renji when it was Aizen still strapped to a chair playing with his Almighty Soul King head the entire time. So if the question is "Can Aizen win?" the only other answer besides "Duh" is "WHICH Aizen; Aizen with 3 seals removed, Aizen with a fourth removed, or fully released Aizen?"................and the answer's STILL "Duh" 😂😂😂😂

Well we know that when it had come to Aizen’s zanpakuto if you placed your hand on it you could not be affected by it’s illusions.

You are correct, Tommo must have forgotten the dialogue shared between Gin and Aizen prior to Gin being killed.

I don’t think so. The Aizen we see fight Yhwach was at his full power using everything at his disposal and he still couldn’t even touch Yhwach. Because of the power of the SK enhanced Almighty, even if there was a modicum of chance that Aizen could be victorious, all Yhwach would have to do would be to rewrite the future. I know alot of hardcore Aizen fans always mention the hogyoku and evolution, but not only did he NOT evolve in this fight against the strongest person he’s ever fought, but he got overwhelmed and was eventually knocked unconscious due to the assimilating process. This matchup is the unstoppable force vs the immovable obstacle through and through. Aizen and Ichigo were basically fighting God and were losing handily until the still silver was involved.

[@JohnGlow2]

@youcantmakethisup9048 That makes no sense at all though because Yhwach was literally the obstacle in the way of Aizen’s goals. His whole “no one rules over me” attitude and defiance were the main reasons he chose to oppose Yhwach in the first place. Remember, everything Yhwach had done while infiltrating the royal realm is what Aizen had intended to do as well, at least with the exception of merging the worlds, whereas Aizen wanted to stand in heaven and prove his point. Narratively, it makes zero sense for Aizen to be like “hmm, my greatest foe is right before me, but I have no desire to actually stop him from getting what he wants. Better not evolve.”

After that, they both thought the battle Is over but suddenly yhwach eliminated the big threat of Aizen by absorbing him. If they knew it wasn’t over, there might have been a chance where AiEn would actually have to resort to using his bankai. Just a speculation on my part seeing that Aizen never truly reveals all his cards at once and does so only when absolutely necessary, it’s in his character and his bankai is supposedly his last resort in this situation given that yhwach revived without absorbing Aizen at that very moment.

Ichigo was more of a threat to Yhwach than Aizen ever was, infact, if we are going by the war potential lists, threads 1) Ichigo, 2nd) Kenpachi, 3rd) Ichibe 4th) Aizen, 5th) Urahara. Before Kenpachi lost to Royd, he was the biggest threat to Yhwach and his over all plans. Whether you like it or not or come back with "WEL KENPACHI ISNT EVEN STRONGER THAT ICHIGO OR AIZEN", that is irrelevant because that is exactly how the War Potentials list was written by Kubo himself.

I think the illusion ends WITHOUT Aizen wanting it to end because it is how his power works now, after being fused with his Zanpaktou. Remember how Gin said the only way to not be under Kyoka Suigetsu's hypnosis is by touching the blade? Well, he fused with his blade, and that fusion was never undone. His blade may have "disappeared" but where did it "reappear" from if he had been tied up to the chair? It has to be because he is fused and can make it appear whenever. This would also be consistent with the earlier pre-Hyogoku battles, like when he stabs Harribel from behind and she then can see he is behind and not in front.

[@jamessunderlandseventh7410]

The answer depends on if the Hogyoku can still push Aizen beyond his current power level and how insane his bankai is.

[@gammafrost]

Well urahara did state that his power surpassed what he displayed against ichigo in their last battle so it stands his power still grows greatly

Aizen bankai probably would be being able to time travel to a certain extent while hypnosis is still effective

[@ethanquirk28]

I’d always assumed it would be along the lines of the ability to manifest his illusions into reality. As in, anything you are convinced is real while under his illusion, becomes itself no longer an illusion. If you are cut in the illusion, the cut becomes real, if a building collapses then it collapses in real life etc

What if Yhwach changed a future in which he saw Aizen say..........."Bankai". New video idea, your welcome.

[@ozdaartist3106]

I think the effects of Aizen’s hypnosis wore off bc he was so greatly injured.

[@the_maddcow]

I believe aizen would defeat ywach. Aizen, just like with everyone else he fought, was playing with ywach, testing his power just as Mayuri pointed out when he restricted his power. Plus with the hogyoku aizen has the potential to evolve again, endlessly, I doubt ywach can. Plus aizen still has his bankai, I doubt aizen was losing power and strength, he was too arrogant to take ywach seriously. Ywach is nothing special without the almighty, without it ywach would get bodied, aizen without his zanpoktou bodied the entire gotei 13 by himself.

Yhwach in his base Form was strong enough to Steal and Withstand Yamamoto's bankai... No other Sternritter was capable of stealing Yamamoto's bankai just as Yhwach says... Yamamoto's bankai still makes the strongest captain in tybw..Bankai Yamamoto ~Base Yhwach >> Aizen without Zanpakuto > Gotei 13...

I'd like to see more of these what if series? I have a suggestion, during the Fake Karakura town arc, when Shinji charged at Aizen and was almost killed by Tousen only to be blocked by Kaumaura, what if he was not blocked and we got to see Hirako Shinji vs Kaname Tousen? It would be interesting fight, that ultimately I think tousen would take as most of Shinji's abilities would not work on a blind Tousen unless he can drive him to his final release.

[@cd5sircoupe]

I think the Hogyoku would definitely resurrect Aizen, potentially giving him another crazy transformation. While it may be "dormant" or something following Deicide & his time in Muken, Aizen is still stronger than he was during Deicide. If the fight went down in that way I absolutely think it would become active and start doing the shenanigans we're used to, otherwise when it "rejected" him after Mugetsu it would have popped out of his chest or something right? Here's a basic analogy I thought up in like 2 minutes: From the Hogyoku's perspective, let's say base Aizen was a Dodge Challenger SRT-8/Scat Pack/whatever. It transformed him into a Hellcat and later a Demon, but after his defeat he reverted to a Hellcat Redeye. But it could theoretically turn him into a Demon 170 in this situation. For context, a Hellcat is rated 707hp, Redeye is 797hp, Demon is 808 (I think, and also specialized for drag racing), and the Demon 170 is something like 1025hp? and is strictly a factory drag car.
