Could Ichibei even use his abilities against Yamamoto? Because as soon as he goes Bankai, Ichibei would no longer have ink.

[@jackferdinger4180]

The "no shinigami BORN IN THE PAST 1000 YEARS" statement was not a good example of why Yamamoto scales higher than Ichibei. Because Ichibei wasn't born within those 1000 years, he was born before that

[@chrisblanc663]

So true. Ichibei simply exists outside the parameters of the story until after Yama’s death. I think Yama has more offensive abilities. But he isn’t really a tactical fighter. He just tries to overwhelm his opponent. That simply won’t work against ichibei. He would just turn Yama’s flames into a match. Turn Yama’s strength to a kitten. And then smash him.

[@zenraloc]

@@chrisblanc663 I mean you can say the same for Kenpachi, but at a way higher level. He really doesnt consider better approaches than face first. It took him way too long to remember the Rudimentary lesson yamamoto taught him about kendo. I don't think you're giving yamamoto enough credit when it comes to tactician though. We just haven't seen him ever in a position where he needed to be. But he is quite resourceful. And usually finds a better approach alot of the time. And he is always limited. The entire time he is involved he is either benched or his power is stolen from him. And the one time he actually was able to use his sword his arm was missing and couldn't use all his bankai nor could he use all the kido and hakudo, not to mention he in a state of rage. Hard to focus on tactician that way. His best approach is to pressure his opponent and that works very very well. Ichibei is just really good at controlling an aggressive fighter and redirection. I think you underestimate yamamoto. But ichibei is really the perfect counter versus All shinigami

[@aliveandwellinisrael2507]

I think Ichibei would win. We haven't seen anything to suggest his ink could be erased by Yama's bankai on contact, since nobody has outright destroyed the ink that way. Not sure Yama has higher reiatsu either, so the thing Aizen mentioned to Soi Fon isn't an escape. Neither is Yama's statement about no stronger shinigami being born in 2000 years, obviously since Ichibei is much older. Ichibei also showed hidden kidou abilities that we hadn't seen before, so considering regular kidou contains things like literally stopping time, who knows what the secret ones can do.

To be fair Yama's bankai's sword is black So ichibei kinda already touched him

15:53 Expect he didn’t Ichibei seal that up and Yama never fought him with the Almighty

[@danielmason4014]

The trick to this fight is that both combatants are immeasurably powerful, but in very different ways: Ichibe’s powers are vast - not on a physical level but a conceptual one. It’s unlikely that he’s a very dominant melee fighter, but his absolute authority over names and the very concept of ‘Black’ gives him a transcendent and god-like degree of influence over his reality. If the ink of his brush touches you, you’re whatever he wants you to be. Yamamoto is the pinnacle of fighting power in a more straightforward sense. If Ichibe can be thought of as a god of creation then that makes Old Man Yama a god of destruction. There’s nobody who can compete with his offensive power - this man’s Shikai is enough to incinerate cities and the mere activation of his Bankai threatens to destroy a plane of existence. A great testament to Yama’s strength that shouldn’t be ignored - neither Aizen or Yhwach wanted a direct confrontation with him without first having a means of sealing his zanpakuto’s power. The difference in the nature of their abilities aside, both Yama and Ichibe are very well rounded fighters and have a mastery of all soul-reaper combat disciplines. Whoever wins is a simple question - who can land the first decisive blow?

Yamamoto didn't defeat Yhwach who had the Almighty 1000 years ago. Nimaya specifically mentions that he has data about Yhwach from the battle he just had against Yama and his battle from 1000 years ago, meaning Ichibei would know about Yhwach's Almighty if he used it 1000 years ago. But when Ichibei fights Yhwach, he is surprised by the Almighty, meaning Yhwach didn't use it before.

[@damaniherrington4170]

That makes sense. Since how would you beat an almighty yhwach without his powers somehow being deactivated temporarily? Unless yhwach saw no altered reality where he could defeat yama in his bankai. But this would also make no sense since he went back and broke ichigos bankai before he could even use it. So why wouldn’t he be able to do it against yama in the past? The only explanation to this is that he didn’t have the almighty in the past.

[@udiin6518]

@@damaniherrington4170 the problem with the whole feat is, as impressive as yama's full arsenal is, there still should just have been no way he'd even come close to defeating yhwach - the almighty was beaten only by a combination of EXTREMELY contrived plot devices and nearly-as-broken hax abilities which yama definitely does not have. I think Kubo potentially realised the same (that he'd made a character and ability that was way too broken) and thus opted NOT to go for the 1000 year flashback everybody wanted - zero way to explain how yhwach is defeated (though i head-canon one of the original gotei 13 captains must have had a counter of sorts and yama sacrificed them and the others besides Unohana in a combined assault, thus "defeating" yhwach)

I think Yamamoto would win whether or not you use the aizen statemt of spiritual pressure negating hax/abilities by the fact Yamamoto defeated Yhwach while he had the almighty and like you guys said Yamamoto getting old did little to affect his strength and since he has both arms in this scenario and isn't enraged. The Almighty is outright shown to be more powerful than ichibe's hax and other abilities so by that logic the Yamamoto in this scenario would be able to beat ichibe who has hax inferior to the almighty obviously not casually it will be a close match I'd say Yamamoto would win 7/10 times.

[@YuVen3487]

Great match up and one I'd never thought of before both narratively and in concept 👍 My take? Very dependant on a few factors. It isn't a question of whether or not Yammy's flames could evaporate ichibei's ink. It's shown in the clash with Yuwach that the ink acts like a liquid and is subject to force regardless of if it can be evaporated. The real question here is whether exposure to the ink applies hacks to spiritual pressure. If so Yammy doesn't stand a chance. If not? Yammy has the advantage. Ichibei's hax affect Yammy less than Ywach as both will have advanced Intel on each other and will do everything to prevent exposure from either side's Zanpakuto abilities. Deciding factor for both sides? Ichibei's force palm ability in conjuction with his ink to bypass Yamamoto's flames, or turning Yammy undead servants against him as a distraction. For Old man Yammy? Simple proximity and diversity of techniques. Ichibei doesn't have Blut Vein and trying to keep his distance will only play into Yammy's hand. Shikai flames to entrap and Bankai to apply the killing blow.

YAMA IS LIKE KENPATCHI AND ICHIBIE IS LIKE Shunsui Kyoraku, RAW POWER VS HAX

[@bigmeme6409]

genuine question: why does everyone assume yama has more reiatsu than ichibei when ichibei is much much older (like before the beginning of the current universe/universes) and has large enough range to be able to peer across multiple worlds and dimensions

[@udiin6518]

its interesting, isn't it. I think it boils down to the way they've been portrayed really: Yama's won a lot of very public fights - he's been demolishing everything thrown his way for years, and almost always has several or many observers to his fights that give us (the audience) all kinds of comments and statements about how powerful he is. While in practice most of these observers likely in reality aren't in a position to judge how yama would fare against any of the other top tiers in the bleach universe, to us readers he has always just seemed like the pinnacle of strength everyone else aspires to be, and indeed he was exactly that for most of the story. His power of fire enhances this even more - at least outwardly, its the most awe-inspiring power to have and for us to see on the page/screen. by contrast, NOBODY has seen Ichibei in battle - his one fight against Yhwach was a loss and had no third party observers (so no superlative comments from, e.g. Oetsu to fall back on), and due to the way the plot had to move at that point he ended up being used mainly to show how powerful Yhwach was - consider for a second how many other characters in the story would be able to even recover any of the 50% power casually stolen by SEALED ichimonji, let alone anything that came after. It just so happens yhwach was basically the only character in the series that could possibly have countered Ichibei's power-nulling, but because the only time we've seen ichibei's powers used they were countered, to the reader it makes them seem a lot more easily counterable ("Aizen would defo just negate with Reiatsu", "yama wouldn't be touched i'm sure he'd just burn the ink off before it reached him"...etc) I can almost guarantee had Ichibei been shown a few feats BEFORE fighting his perfect plot-protected counter in Yhwach - perhaps something like low-diffing or nullifying a character on the level of, say, Byakuya - you'd get way, way less of this.

Shikai Yamamoto was still susceptible to Aizens hypnosis despite having "transcendent" spiritual pressure (yama, not aizen at that moment) during FKT, no? So even with Aizen's spiritual pressure statement holding true, hax seems to work still. Idk if there's a threshold for how much stronger than your opponent you have to be but if Ichibei and Yama aren't too far apart then Ichimonji's ink should be able to power neg

[@Matthew_Webster]

I believe it is Yamamoto who's more powerful. Aizen believed as a transcendent he could beat the Zero Squad and Yamamoto in just Shikai was stated as a transcendent by Ukitake. I also believe 1,000 years ago Bankai Yamamoto beat Yhwach with Almighty, I think Yhwach couldn't see a future where he actually beats Yamamoto at the time and instead took the future where he returns 1,000 years later and has medallions to steal bankai's. Imo Zanka no Tachi simply has too much raw power that it over powers Ichibei's hax, I mean if simply left active too long it can destroy the Soul Society completely and that could be any size.

[@tigerchuu2148]

I have to disagree. No matter how strong Yamamotos bankai is we have seen people take it on. It is not destructive in the sense that it immediately kills everything, if so, Yamamoto vs fake Ywach wouldn't even have been a fight. Not to mention, the only thing we have seen get rid of Ichibei's hax/ink is even more broken hax, not raw power, especially when said power can be decreased or removed by Ichibei. Ichibei was the person to give the name shikai and bankai and the name of all Zanpakutos and everything in the Soul Society so he would definitely know about Yamamotos powers.

Y'all overlooked the most important question... If Yamamoto goes bankai, can ichibe's ink touch him without evaporating before touching him. Yamamoto's bankai while nowhere close nerfed toshiro's ability to use his zampakuto so it stands to reason a liquid based ability would never touch him

[@Theonefrombeyon]

Once Ichibei goes Shikia he doesn't need to use ink and can directly use the black on Yama, he specifically did this against ywhach and use the black from his clothes and wrapped it around him.

[@chriswhite950]

@Acnologia and in bankai yamamoto has the flame cloak spirit pressure. If it's literal blackness, it can't exist encased of direct light of flame yamamoto is wrapped in. If it's a substance there's no feats to suggest it could survive the heat effect

[@Theonefrombeyon]

@@chriswhite950 Well it seems like the place Ichibei fought at had sun and light out and it did nothing to his blackness. Just bc Yama emits light from his flames means it's going to overpower Ichibei blackness. We don't know if it's a substance we know it's blackness and wrapped around Ywhach. If they seriously fought I doubt Yama would have time to do anything. Base Ichibei is severely above Yama base judging the ywhach fight he had.

[@chriswhite950]

@Acnologia you misunderstood. Don't think of it as a sun shining down. The light is the sun. You can't cast a shadow while being in the center of a light bulb. Being the light source is way different than having light shined on you. It's not even that I think yamamoto can win, it's more about looking at feats achieved and description through narration. Because they never fought we'll never know if Yamamoto is even beatable in bankai because of the fire cloak defense

[@Theonefrombeyon]

@@chriswhite950 Yama is beatable lol he's just very hot and doesn't negate hax. That's where I think we disagree you think Yama can somehow negate ichibei hax when he can't. Narration only point to Yama being stronger than ppl born after him not before like Ichibei. Also the statement that say squad zeo is superior to gotei and Ichibei being leader of that. Also the fight between ywhach vs both of them. We can judge accurately how both of them do and see who's stronger. Yama needed to go bankai to be a threat while In Base Ichibei literally was slapping him around and only went shikia and bankai to make it known that he was stronger. He got his power stolen and took it back Yama lost his forever then died moments later. Feats goes to Ichibei, hax goes to Ichibei, physical strength goes to Ichibei, reatsu should be relative or lean towards ichibei. Ichibei is superior.

[@montesoul]

I think this comes down to two things: If Ichibe's hax goes over Zanka no Taichi Or if you think (hypothetically) a fully healed two armed Yama could take Juha Bach assuming he couldn't steal his bankai since he didn't(couldn't) steal ichibie who fairs FAR better in their battle. Love the vid!

Yeah I agree tho the fact we've never seen a fair fight against a full power Yama, kinda says something to me about how strong he was, tho it could also just be a strategy of yuha cause I mean, if you have the option to fight someone not at full power, then why not.

[@animestand]

I honestly don't understand the logic behind this matchup. It's a serious mismatch. Ichibei actually stomps. I legit don't see a win con for Yamamoto. Yamamoto's bankai was stated to reiatsu not flames, so superior reiatsu overpowering it is not far fetched, seeing as it's a plot point in the series. Ichibei is basically a primodial being whose powers affect the very concepts of the story. He is over a million years old. He was in the era of the Soul King before the existence of Soul Society. His power of Black clowned on Yhwach who essentially one tapped Genryussai in a much more weaker state. Even if Genryussai happened to have both of his hands, you would be tripping to even think that he could lay a finger on Yhwach who clearly stated and showed that he was capable of holding the power of Yamamoto's bankai and then proceeded to one tap Yamamoto. Ichibei actually really clearly stomps Yamamoto. He has sealed beings that Soul Society couldn't handle like Ikomikidomoe. His power of Black was only defeated by Yhwach's Almighty whose power is to see and change the future. I mean even narratively Ichibei is above Yamamoto. The zero squad is stated to be stronger than the Gotei 13, a statement I believe to be carried by Ichibei. Also concerning the statement Genryussai made, he actually said that no one has been born in a thousand years that is stronger than him... Ichibei is basically the godfather of the shinigami. Yamamoto's statement doesn't apply to Ichibei in any way. Ichibei dogwalks Genryussai. It's basically a no contest.

The fire wouldn't affect ichibei's ink because ichibei doesn't manipulate ink, he manipulates black and everything black. It's more of a concept than a physical attack. Scenarios: 1. Ichibei uses the black of yamas clothes to cover him and therefore erase his name rendering him useless and ichibei then kills him. 2. Ichibei uses the black of yamas shadow to erase the name of his zanpakuto rendering it useless and then he can effectively fight and overpower yama

[@akechi088]

Yamamoto would lose because he vowed to never use his Bankai ever again and that if he did, he would not be able to return, meaning, he meant to die in combat or he would retire as the Head Captain. This goes to show how much this vow means to Yamamoto, and honestly... I somehow doubt that Yamamoto would even consider to use his Bankai against Ichibei. Yamamoto is actually incredibly ashamed of himself and regrets the use of his bankai, when he used it 1000 years ago to fight Ywach. As in Yamamoto's own words, "That is a monster that appeared in Soul Society a long time ago. It appeared when Soul Society was facing a difficult situation, only to make the situation worse." Yamamoto's sheer strength killed friends and foe alike as large area of affect of his Bankai indiscriminately killed anyone close enough or anyone who got caught up in an attack. I would also assume that in his original fight 1000 years ago against Ywach, the fight was a long drawn out fight, and the sheer heat of his bankai ended up killing numerous innocents and also his comrades. Yamamoto only decided to use his Bankai again when facing Ywach because of the immense stress and emotional turmoil he had from having so many people he cared about, die left and right, so he felt the need to end the battle as soon as possible. If we are talking about a Yamamoto who would not hesitate to use his Bankai, then I think he has a decent chance against Ichibei, but in a fight without his bankai, Yamamoto has a very slim to no-chance.

If we had a situation were they both had there bankai/awakened zanpakto removed then Yamamoto definitely wins, otherwise True Name would probably prevail but Ichibei would have to speak pretty quickly if he doesn’t want his tongue along with the rest of his body to literally be burned out of of existence

[@udiin6518]

surely its the opposite; Yama's bankai is the only thing giving him the chance here, no? Ichibei is faster (4000 ri feat after he initially palms yhwach away), physically stronger at least not weaker (crushed yhwach's throat, broke Yhwach's own Sankt Alter simply by flexing the muscles in his left arm etc...), better kido (no other character has ever shown even an inkling of the "secret kido" he used, and who knows how many more hidden ones he has up his sleeve), and let's say comparable reiatsu since we have nothing to go on there beyond knowing both will be right near the top. While i don't think it would, you can argue a win for yama if you think ZKT would, ironically, nullify the power-nullifier in ichimonji. Furthermore, Ichibei's bankai is more of a support type in truth so not that helpful to him in a hypothetical 1v1. Without bankai I don't see any argument here for yama, two hands or not

I think Yama wins with two hands since its implied he was surpressed since he had only one hand vs the fake Ywach. Also Yamamoto was the head of the gotei since he was formed. So that could also imply maybe at some point some if not all of the Zero division were part of the original gotei 13 and were later promoted into the Zero division. I mean when Ywach said Yama used to be far more ruthless and defeat Ywach in the past maybe this could imply a young Yamamoto was even stronger than the one we saw in the thousand year blood war. Plus Yamamoto basically has four abilities which is like four bankai compared to other characters. I think if I remeber correctly Aizen had to plan for Yamamoto along with the potential of Kenpachi but he seemed to not fear the Zero division at all (even though Kubo didn't come up with their characters yet as far as I know)

[@crimansizers5840]

I agree overall, it comes down to Ink and name hax vs Yamma neg factor. That being said I find people tend to overlook a few things about Ichibe so I thought I would add them here: 1. Ichibe is older than Yamma, and is the first Shinigami. I doubt the statement of "no one born in the last 1000 years is stronger than I" applies to him. The head of Royal Guard is a higher position than Captain Commander as we see in CFYOW where Shunsui who is the CC at the time refers to Ichibe as "Your Eminence" while Ichibe speaks casual to him. 2. In CFYOW we learn a lot about Ichibe. He is a primordial being who just kind of poofed into exitance a MILLION year prior to the quincy war, along with the ancestors of the noble houses and the Soul King. 3. Ichibe's famous 1000 Ri feat (or about 2500 miles a second) was in his base form. His Shikai and Bankai speeds are likely faster much faster.

@@TheTonytone77 Why would he ? Do u think the guy who can crush the strongest blut vene with brute force alone will just die from the heat ? If royd's blut can survive so can ichibei Also his speed feats are far greater since he jumped thousands of miles in less than a second after he bitch slapped yhwach

In my mind I always just thought Ichibe just yeets Yamas Ryujin Jakkas name.

You do realise that Yamamoto can use Kido shields and hado spells and other stuff, plus his shunpo speed rivals Ichigo's. With Yamamoto, power-scaling is VERY subtle and implied. Plus he's really smart and plans well ahead always(except that 1 time that led to his death), he let Aizen go knowing that the Hogyoku would take 6 months(or so) to stabilize, and Yamamoto took that time to plan for the battle and he DID get the better of Aizen a few times before Ichigo showed up. Soul reaper vs Soul reaper battles are different compared to Soul reaper vs Quincy or hollow. You can't just use Yhwach as a good metric to scale Ichibe and Yamamoto. It's like saying Ichibe's control over black means he can negate ALL getsuga tenshou's from Ichigo's Bankai or Mugetsu since it's also a darkness-based hax. Hax is not everything, Barragan would be top 5 if it were. I can see Yamamoto one-shotting Ichibe in a 1v1, he won't leave room for Ichibe to act since he's faster and less talkative(lol) and Ichibe is not durable enough to tank a single hit from "these hands". Obviously, narratively, it would be a high diff fight and Ichibe could win 4 out of 10 battles if he plays his cards right but, a sane level-headed "no fucks given" bankai Yamamoto with no reason to hold back plus the 2-hand multiplier would absolutely demolish Ichibe 10 times out of 10, just like Aizen, Yhwach and Ichigo would at their best. He has a broken hax ability but that's not the only 'stat' that matters when power scaling else, hulk would lose to just about any magic user or reality warper in marvel. Who's to say the ink wouldn't dry up or slow down significantly due to the sun-like heat reiatsu Yamamoto emanates?(which is cannon btw, water/ice based zampakutou were basically shut down once all the moisture in the soul society was dried up) And what range of aoe is the ink anyway, because Yamamoto's aoe is planet levels wide in bankai and city to country levels on the low end in shikai, If Ichibe can't reach him from a distance then why would Yamamoto give up the sniping advantage for cqc instead? Idk, I think you guys skipped certain key legit possibilities and focused way too much on hax. Good for Ichibe I guess, loved the video and the collab, hope to see more of the same.

Great explanation

[@damifash758]

Bro ichibe literally said his bankai covers the whole world . All the black in the world is under my control Anyone who thinks Yamamoto can one shot ichibie is a striaght up clown Man is the first shinigami And has power over concepts like names Even resisted ywach blut haven with sheer bruto force .and you think Yamamoto one shots 😂😂

[@raiden3013]

anything yama can do ichbei can do 10x better. he even has secret kidos he use vs ywach. ywach one shots> yama. then goes on to get dominated by ichbei after he got stronger vs his fight vs yama. and you think yama could last mroe than a few seconds vs ichbei if he was serious?

[@gallavanting2041]

This fight is the definition of 'who hits first'

[@manigaultdeante]

I think ichibei seemed stronger than yamamoto as he was whooping base yhwach ass while base yhwach overpowered yamamoto cause yhwach said no one in his army includes the elites can steal yamamoto powers cause he is too powerful you have to be atleast equal or stronger in order to steal his powers and ichibei was beating that yhwach ass until he used the almighty but if you use prime yamamoto then I would say yamamoto cause he beat almighty yhwach along time ago and the statement of 0 division combined being above gotei 13 is probably mostly of ichibei anyways because of his ridiculous feats against base yhwach instead of the others cause they got destroyed by the base elites while kyoraku can speed blitz transformed Lille barro so it's mostly can be referring to ichibei cause he is by faaaaaaar the strongest of the 0 division.

Got to love how the latest episode reconfirmed any chace that Yama ever face an Almighty Yhwach
