POWER?

[@lmaoded7505]

The initial condition or the first action is "getting more power" : if you are weak af and then think that by fighting someone stronger than you will help you get stronger, just ask a punch bag how it feels to be hit for fun (basically, you will be beat up. If your body is weak, you will suffer serious consequences) So at the starting, you do two things: 1. Get a basic level of power 2. Find a "partner" (sparring or fighting partner) who is at your level Then when you fight, you realise your weaknesses and then gain more power (to compensate for that weakness) and fight someone again. Fighting someone is a quality assurance check, gaining more power is an upgradation. Hope it makes sense.

Exactly. Hes not the only zanpakuto to have shown this. For the brief moment we've seen Zabimaru in canon, they ridiculed Renji for having a moment of weakness and urged him to move his ass and fight. Honestly the reveal for White seems so obvious when you look back on it.

[@saorse5918]

@Hayabusa the spartan I'm actually confused by that how the hell did old man zangetsu come out instead of white.

[@saorse5918]

@Hayabusa the spartan nah that's cool but I view it as like what old man zangetsu said he holds back ichigos actual shinigami powers so to me that means white should have been called out. Old zangetsu be quincy and hollow is shinigami so technically white should have been summoned and ichigo should only have his old zanpakuto blade and quincy spirit pressure.

[@williams41]

@Hayabusa the spartan yeah. As for kenpachi and yachiru, it took me awhile to realize why she didn’t rebel. It is because she has no misgivings or frustrations against Kenpachi in the first place, they already had an incredibly strong bond so she didn’t rebel because Kenpachi already treated her with respect and like a daughter. Honestly the Zanpakuto rebellion arc is amazing foreshadowing if you think about it

Every time we see White Zangetsu, there was always hints he was the zanpakuto. Not him blatantly calling himself Zangetsu, but the fact that every time we see him, he is teaching Ichigo something or saving his life. He is always a mentor and a guardian, but his personality makes him seem like an antagonist. Fucking love him and I hate that I never guessed he may actually be a zanpakuto before I found out from the manga.

[@daimonborjas2337]

It’s almost poetic because Ichigo is much like him even if he doesn’t want to admit it. White is basically Ichigo’s desire to fight the feeling he likes to suppress. Kenpachi even pointed that out to him that he like to fight just as much as he does. That’s why I think Kubo did an amazing job portraying white as his “killer instinct” if you will because Ichigo love to fight but doesn’t choose it like kenpachi or Grimmjow because he fights to protect the ones he loves. That’s why I feel like he is depicted as the antagonist for a bit because white is basically Ichigo’s fighting side the one that always tell him to fight with everything he’s got. These 2 contradict each other for those reasons. But when all is said and done they’re one In the same. Master and Zanpakto or in this case a King and his Horse!

They're both "Zangetsu", 2 halves of the same coin or atleast in the context of this fight, he essentially talks about how whichever one of them is stronger, is the one in control of his inner world and holds the title of "Zangetsu".

[@Gamewizzy]

@Ibis ginkaku Yeah, I didn't deny that the "old man" was truly his quincy powers, but that was the "dynamic" between the 2 until that point. White literally says this in the same chapter where he's all like "I'm Zangetsu" but honestly, ppl focus too much on the quote and forget the rest of the chapter. They're both parts his power, quincy or not, even after the reveal, Ichigo is still like "I'm sure you're both Zangetsu", you even see both of them standing behind him with the newly forged, as Oetsu put, "those Zangetu's", its all a huge symbolic part in its design.

[@Socar08]

To be fair, I think zangetsu was fine with how ichigo handled the fight with ulqiorra up to that point. Ichigo was just outclassed because he didn't have the full experience needed to draw out zangetsu's hollow side. White simply told him at the end: don't die before I show up again. Ichigo sought out the second part of the fight with ulquiorra when he should've ran. Or, as is the better instinct: force ulqiorra to come to him to fight. With ulqiorra's rigid logic, he would've never gone segunda etapa inside of Las noches and ichigo would've won. I think if ixhigo had yet more experience with the hollow side, he would've been able to draw out more of zangetsu's hollow power

[@Ultraempoleon]

He was trying to save Ichigo he always has He's his sword after all

[@armoredlumberjack1999]

Ah god damn it i spoiled myself again, i am literally on that part just as Orihime is trying to heal him xd

[@Moponen]

This speech is actually the biggest clue on what the speaker is. He is a representation of the soul, knowing all the secrets it contains. He knows Ichigo's instincts to do battle exist, because they exist within him and him trying to ask Ichigo, by pressing hard on "Form, ability and power" being the puzzling part. He knows that Ichigo should be stronger as long as he retains his instinct to dominate himself and move forward. Even his motive is made clear, he wants to continue existing, that is his instinct, to make sure Ichigo survives, even if it means taking away his freewill and body.

[@derokdeathaxe6984]

and keep in mind, Ichigo is the same guy who in the earliest chapters/episodes, was basically Gatsu from Berserk. We have a 2episode-saga about a Hollow who chases a parrot(with the soul of a kid) and kills everyone who tries to protect the parrot, Ichigo got so mad, that grabbed this hollow's explosive-frogs with his own hands, shoved them back inside the mouth of the hollow(while still holding those frogs), let them explode and then rip out the hollow's tongue(which is the detonator of those bombs) with the very same hand. Or we wanna talk about Ichigo vs Fisher, the very same hollow that killed his mom(who was protecting Ichigo, from Fisher itself), because baby-ichigo fell for that hollow's bait(back then he couldn't tell the difference between ghosts, hollow and didn't understand that he could see spiritual beings), and this led to a fight in the very same graveyard where Ichigo's mom is buried, fighting while his spiritual-guts are literally smeared on the ground, and he still keeps fighting, he still keeps screaming and yelling like a wild beast, in a very similar way to Zangetsu/White-Ichigo. I miss that version of ichigo so bad.

[@shueibdahir]

⁠@@derokdeathaxe6984Ichigo was ruthless in the beginning of the show and slowly got softer as he started to understand hollows. Something happened that caused these instincts to waver. Did you notice how when he started to feel conflictef about ulquiorra, his mask wouldn't function? He is a hollow which means the instinct of a hollow is something he had to accept. The moment he denies them, his hollowification is impossible

[@derokdeathaxe6984]

@@shueibdahir oh i know, and i'm saying "i miss that ichigo", that's it.

[@Gadget-Walkmen]

It's not that he "knows" that " Ichigo should be stronger as long as he retains his instinct to dominate himself and move forward." in the way that you say it here at all. It's more like he's saying if Ichigo can't be strong enough to dominate over others instinctively, he's just going to take control of ichigo's body and be the "king" himself, if ichigo is too weak to do so himself. Hollow Ichigo IS trying to teach Ichgio a lesson but if ichigo can't learn, he's just going to push Ichigo to the side and have full control himself since if ichigo dies, the inner follow dies as well so they have to make it clear whose in charge to make all the decisions to make sure they survive. And one entity is clearly not tolerating another entity being weaker than he is if it means they're both going to get killed.

I heard this speech years ago and ive only really realized what it meant a few years ago when i went to therapy. My life issues were so bad, it felt like a part of me was taking control. Some nasty ho pushed my buttons in just the right way and i started screaming at her. The thing is, i NEVER do that. That was the first in the 29 years ive been alive. The instant after it happened, i recalled my therapist telling me 'if im attacked in an area thats sensitive, a part of me would lash out to protect me.' I scoffed at this because i had never done that. I was wrong. Then later i remembered when ichigo fought byakuga and i put two and two together. Hollow ichigo took over and started crushing byakuga. He really was trying to protect ichigo in his berserking madness like the part of me that was trying to protect me. I really believe this speech to be real like my therapists words. If you let your problems pile up, your mind may act out to protect you. Even against your own will. Keep you life in order/ be strong and you can keep the pieces of your self from trying to take your crown. Stay in charge of you. YOU. ARE. THE. KING.

[@Aurora-313]

Arguably, blame the Ywbach that lives in Ichigo's soul. When they first meet, White calls Ichigo Partner and has a whole 'dude, you don't recognise me? that hurts.' moment. I think that if it were White from the get-go - who was there when Ichigo reawakened his own powers, it'd be an interesting dynamic. I can imagine White having a bullying/teasing big brother attitude towards Ichigo and a protective streak (partly because that's canon), but if White had a chance to make a better first impression, I think things could've been better in the long run. We might've also gotten some earlier lorebombs dropped. When Ichigo is going through Bankai training and Renji sees White, he could freak out about a Hollow being there -- with White groaning about 'ruining the surprise' -- which could lead to the red herring of White being the Hollow that formed when Ichigo was trying to get his powers back the first time. If anything else, its a cool AU to ponder.

LOL No, he WAS a villain. He ultimately wanted to take over Ichigo's body to kill everyone around him JUST for the sake of it because he's a Hollow at the end of the day and that's what ALL hollows do, kill for their own mindless sake. If ichigo dies, he dies as well as they had to make decisions to make sure they both don't end up getting killed. Hollow Ichigo saved Ichigo's life at times when he needed BUT he that doesn't mean he shares ichigo's concerns even if it means taking over his body and oppressing Ichigo in the process where Hollow Ichigo takes over his body. What Hollow Ichigo wants to do is NOT what Ichigo wants to do as they both share the same body but they have different goals as Hollow Ichigo's goals are primal and massively anomalistically violent JUST for the sake of it because that's what Hollows do, they kill out of their emptiness in their souls.

This is paraphrased by a wise woman, but I expanded on it here. But compassion is as much of a key of what humans are as violence. It depends on which wolf we nurture, especially when challenged.

After having lots of fun watching this anime several years ago, I completely ignore what Albino Ichigo said because of the fights; now since I'm mature, this speech is truly encouraging. Had some goosebumps and not realizing how motivating his lecture was to Ichigo. It also makes since. How can a King tame and have control over the Horse? The answer lies in a King's instinct. Without instinct, you cannot have control over the Horse. Therefore, the Horse will be the King if the King doesn't have the motivation of willful instinct.

[@genesis3831]

Zangetsu is truly a fusion of Hollow and Shinigami in philosophy, and as a Zanpakto spirit, his goal in the end is for Ichigo to grow, and if Ichigo won't grow, fight, and win. Then screw the rules he will drag Ichigo to become the strongest himself. He has always saved ichigo and never ONCE lied to him. He also upholds Ichigo's values to save and protect others no matter what, but in this case its for Ichigo. The blade truly is him.

If you think about it from Hollow Ichigo's perspective, he only did what he did for the sake of his survival (and to protect Ichigo, in a sense). He sounds and acts maniacal, but he's really doing what's needed to keep Ichigo, or rather "them" alive. Why else would he say, "Someone's whose uncertainty and hesitation will end up getting us both cut to pieces." ? Imagine if he allowed Ichigo to die during those times Ichigo was close to dying, Ichigo would disappear, Hollow Ichigo wouldn't exist. Those times when Ichigo hollowfies and doesn't care who he's fighting? That's survival instinct, it doesn't matter whether friend or foe, he's merely just trying to stay alive. Basically, Hollow Ichigo sees fighting as "life or death".
