How Aizen and Tsukishima COUNTERED Yhwach's Almighty, Explained | BLEACH Discussion

[@MrTommo2304]

What did you think of The Almighty as an ability in the series? Too broken, or fitting for Yhwach?

[@barzan5048]

It was quite broken, but if it wasn't more broken than aizens kyoka suigetsu it would have felt like a let down

[@Bonny-2132]

I find unbeatable powers rather boring. The Almighty needed some sort of blind spot to exploit, something more interesting than still silver.

[@duncannslade]

It was high-level meta stuff, and regardless of the way Bleach tied up in the end, I loved Tsukishima and Aizen's contributions. WRT Aizen's comment at Yhwach seeing Ichigo, I think it refers to the fact that Aizen was so steadfast in every possible future at casting KS on Yhwach, that in one of the futures Yhwach was looking at (i.e. at the point where he stopped using his actual EYES and was instead leaning on his Almighty Eyes throughout), that Alternate Aizen had cast himself as Ichigo, the human brat. Either that or he was just interested by the results of the power interaction. 🤷‍♂️

[@Timjer92]

It is indeed incredibly broken, but as something that is implied he inherited from his father, the godly Soul King, it is fitting. I actually subscribe to an entire theory that The Almighty was more loyal to the SK than to Yhwach, and that it allowed Yhwach to lose because that's what the SK wanted. Makes sense especially considering the numerous highly unlikely longshots that had to happen at once to defeat Yhwach.

[@dec2567]

I like jojo so I'm use too broken abilities. I feel like the last arc was super jojo like with the hax. To me it made the power system a little more interesting.

[@ericrobins5188]

So basically Ichigo uses two of his enemies one that controls the past and one that controls the present to defeat to one that controls the future.

So imagine how clever Gin was for discovering the weakness of Kyoka Suigetsu. Sadly though, he took the secret to his grave. Aizen also made sure to ally with Tosen, the only soulreaper who cannot be affected by Kyoka Suigetsu. Ah Bleach...gonna watch you again.

[@alexrodriguez7389]

I mean the thing is since Aizen fused with his sword the weakness doesn’t even exist anymore since well it’s sort of him now and all you have to do is look at him to be affected.And tbh I doubt Aizen ever regarded Tousen as a threat.Aizen with his immense power could just nullify tousen s bankai and on top of that his stats are way higher then tousens.Not even hollow tousen would stand a chance.

Kyoka Suigetsu is, in a way, a hard counter to the Almighty. To fall under the influence of Kyoka Suigetsu you have to SEE its release initially, just for once. Yhwach can see too much with his Almighty and thus is highly susceptible to Kyoka Suigetsu. Aizen could not have wished for an easier opponent. There is no way Yhwach could have NOT fallen under hypnosis.

[@awesomeguy183]

All powers he sees no longer work on him and literally become his to control only reason it worked is because he was u der its influence before he used the almighty not that it makes a difference. Aizen literally did nothing in the grand scheme lf things. At best you could say he stalled for a couple of minutes.

@@hyperDarklord13 no, aizen used kyoka suigetsu in the first invasion so yhwach was under hypnosis way before he activated the almighty. Once a person falls in hypnosis aizen can use it everytime without problem but with yhwach worked only because he was already under hypnosis. If aizen used it after he activated the almighty the first time (when yhwach fought ichibe) it wouldn't work because the almighty can counter every power but not something that happened in the past. He didn't transcend the almighty, he was lucky and smart because he put him under hypnosis the first time he met yhwach, even in the last fight aizen admitted that he wasn't sure that kyokasuigetsu could work on yhwach and had to try before ichigo arrived.

[@KAXGaming]

​@white america's worst nightmare Aizen reached the 4th level of the Zanpakuto. Where the Shinigami and the Sword are truly fused as one. Ichigo did this as well with Mugetsu. Mugetsu is his 4th form. Ichigo use the "Final Getsuga Tenshou" which is a skill, not Mugetsu itself. The Bankai is the 2nd level of the Zanpaktou. The 3rd is where the fusion begins to manifest. Ichigo and Aizen use this during their final battle, their swords and arms where fused as one. Aizen has a Bankai. It is his will now. There is no "Release". He can choose to just use the power of the bankai without showing a change. There is no more "releasing" of the zanpakuto. Aizen and Kyoka Suigetsu are one now. As it should be. The Zanpakutou is the Shinigami, they were always one but physically separated through the Asauchi to truly understand and learn their power. It's a circle. The user pours their spiritual pressure into the blank asauchi forming a zanpakuto, and in the end they become one again. *Zanpakuto level of progression.* 1. Asauchi - The blank zanpakuto. The wielder pours their spiritual pressure into the blank sheet. It becomes them, their power, not unlocked. 2. Zanpakuto - The base form of weapon after forming from the asauchi. 3. Shikai - The first release. Attatined after learning the name of their zanpakuto. 4. Bankai - The second release. Attained through training and understanding the Zanpakuto. 5. Fusion Manifestation - The fusion of the Zanpakuto and the Shinigami begins. 6. Fusion. The Zanpakuto and the Shinigami become one. The powers of the Zanpakuto unshackled from the physical form and able to be used at will. Aizen and Ichigo used their weapons in their final forms pulling them from thin air. Their will. Shikai and Bankai are now the norm and are beneath what there were. Their power is their will. Sorry for the paragraph. :)

[@syazwanmustapah2826]

Judging on how Kubo writes nowadays, Aizen's Bankai is probably a very specific use Bankai that is not suitable against Yhwach. Like Shinji's Bankai cannot have any allies near him. Shuhei's Bankai needs allies near him. That one of the Kenpachi cannot use Bankai cause his Bankai destroys Seireitei.

[@FrayTheHunter]

I personally believe that The Arrow could potentially be an anomaly that Yhwach could not see or predict because it nullifies his powers. Or, perhaps, Uryu’s power of The Antithesis was able to counteract The Almighty by nullifying Yhwach’s ability to predict what Uryu would do.

[@ufazig]

That's what I thought. He can't see anything regarding the arrow, and Uryu hit himself with it and then used antithesis. Doesn't stop the arrow from being a huge asspull though. It could've been foreshadowed and better explained with more time, and required "effort" to get the arrow. Also, it could've permanently stopped almighty. So now it's a fair battle between Ichigo and Yhwach instead of Ichigo one hit KO.

[@tyronjasonhuff]

The antithesis is able to nope anything and give all negs to the other person by choice.

[@Vini-zv3lr]

I mean, the antithesis of ''seeing all futures'' is ''not seeing all futures'', so I guess it would make sense. Yhwach himself said Uryu could surpass him, so maybe he never could really see anything the Antithesis was going to do.

That is why Haschwalth insisted on facing Uryuu himself. The Almighty was a bad matchup for Ywach, but a good one for him.

The metaphors for how Tsukishima's and Aizen's abilities worked to help Ichigo were SO helpful actually. I do have a couple things though. Kyouka Suigetsu affects all SIX senses- don't forget spiritual awareness! Even if you heard or saw a person, if their spiritual signature is wrong you would know they were a fake- so Aizen's ability affects that too. And when Uryu temporarily nullifies Yhwach's Almighty with the arrow and Ichigo stikes him, one of the reasons he didn't see his defeat coming was because of Haschwalth (though Aizen might've certainly also had a hand in it as well). When Yhwach's powered switched to Haschwalth while Yhwach slept, he sent a vision of Ichigo defeating him, but led him to believe it was a dream. Yhwach DID technically see his defeat, but dismissed it as just a dream. I think that makes more sense as to why he didn't see Uryu coming with the arrow rather than he just happened to not be paying attention in that moment. If I got anything wrong let me know but that's how I remember it.

[@matthewconlon2388]

Aizen's practically a god at that point and set up Ywabach to "see only his greatest fear" or some nonsense, when he still thought Ichigo was the most dangerous threat Aizen thought "huh? He's fighting me, a literal god, and still thinks beating this teenager is the linchpin?"

[@ortiz3m]

Is is Aizen affecting multiple “puddles” of water, or Aizen affecting the moment in time that all “puddles” are based on?

[@wawazawi]

That's a great question. I think he actually affects Juhas perspective of the present, since Aizen would only be able to change the futures if he saw or at least predicted them (well, it's Aizen, so maybe he did, idk). If he affects what Juha is currently seeing, then the Almighty would probably show the possible outcomes based on the illusion he is currently experiencing. If that's the case, then it's a very big flaw in an otherwise completely hax power, since he can only react around what he BELIEVES is going on

[@christopher_silver]

Since Ywach's senses are distorted by Aizen, the futures that he "sees" will also be distorted. So Ywach is basically looking at distorted and fake realities that he can't really change because they're not real outcomes (atleast that's what I think)

[@NagaYamiyo]

The way I understand it, think of Aizen like a pair glasses that controls your vision. The puddles are there but the glasses show you something different in the puddle. Let's say there's a puddle with a Catfish in it, but when you have the glasses on you see a Shark instead.

[@chibisphere]

I think Aizen saying Ichigo gave Yhwach trouble is a clue to how the final battles played out, and obviously it isnt to do with any detectable physical damage as Ichigo inflicted none. Kubo doesnt bother explaining things and his power system lacks consistency, but from what i could gather Aizen is saying he could sense the battle via reiatsu, and from what he could sense, Yhwach probably spent a ton of his 'energy' using his future bending multiple times rather than risking a direct battle with Ichigo's bankai. I assume that similar to how Nen powers can be op but have conditions, a power like Yhwach's future bending probably has immense cost, otherwise he would be spamming it or using it in far more powerful ways, its just based on logical inference that the almighty power is NOT infinite and spammable and does have a cost, hence him even needing time to rest (when he lends his power to Hashwalt). (more detail below) Its also limited to one person at a time, whomever he focuses his gaze upon. Likewise i think we can further infer that what he bends with his power will have a cost to it based on how its used, and the cost must be higher than normal means or else he would never act in the present and just always use almighty. Placing a reiatsu trap is one small cost usage, killing a spirit body or breaking its sword probably requires more reiatsu than whatever the thing is he is trying to change with his power. So he must be able to control and decide how much power he puts into each usage of Almighty, and must also have limits or a max mana bar atleast, and probably has to rest a long time after using up his tank. This means Yhwach wasnt just being cheeky when he told Ichigo he was showing respect to his Bankai, he probably placed a ton of reiatsu into that usage of Almighty to break his bankai and horn, perhaps far more than the amount Ichigo would have displayed had he fought him directly, but chose to do so rather than bother or risk the encounter going any further. That whole spawning traps segment is probably just the least intensive or most efficient way of using Almighty without expending much reiatsu. Likewise he saw fit to steal whatever he could from the remaining quincy before facing Aizen, implying he may have drained more of his tank than intended taking on ichigo. Also alot of unexplained things in the next chapter, but one could argue Aizens illusions have to replicate reiatsu senses as well to the opponent, but the fact that multiple times Yhwach attempts to use future bending to break Ichigo and Aizens sword and it only cracks is a sign that Yhwach is either too low on power by now to use it as effectively, or more likely is controlling how much power is put into each usage of future bending. I believe this is why the 'illusion ichigo''s sword doesnt break, nothing to do with Tsukishima imo, since this isnt the real ichigo at that point, but Aizen still. By this logic, he believes he used enough to break the sword based on what he thinks his target is, but is incorrect because the sword is really Aizen's. Or an Illusion of what Ichigos power level should appear to be to Yhwach mind, and since Aizens reiatsu is far higher than the amount Yhwach used for his future bending in these instances it merely cracked rather than broke. In other words - the energy put into the spell cast wasnt enough to complete the task because Yhwach is incorrect about the power level of what he is spell casting against, sort of lol.... hope that makes sense. That means Yhwach was spamming useless spells wasting mana quite a bit in the end! Then having to come back from the dead in 684 probably used quite alot of energy as well, so it becomes slightly more believable that after all that and the momentary loss of power, that he was too weak to defend himself in the final moment even vs a worn out Ichigo shikai. Is it just head cannon? Yeah... but thats the best sense I could make of what we are shown in the finale. Heres hoping the anime expands the final arc where it was rushed....

[@corruptangel6793]

Ichigo didn't use his shikai to fell Yhwach, he used his bankai. The Bankai Yhwach already admited to being strong enough to take seriously. That white casing was just an ornate sheath, like a hardened version of that white cloth his original shikai was wrapped in when not in use. Once it shattered, his real blade was revealed which is nearly identical to his original shikai. Something else to mention is that Yhwach did see the future in which Ichigo killed him, he just denounced it as a dream because ichigo used his original shikai blade in that "future". "Zangetsu...of course. So what I saw that time was the future seen with my own eyes. I thought it was a dream you made me see, Haschwalth." Which means he could've changed that future and saved himself, but because he'd effectivly tossed aside that grain of sand, he couldn't do so in time. That also explains why it took him ten years to regenerate. He already said he could change the futures in which he died, so he just did so again. But this time he was too weakened or too far gone to make his resurrection instant.

[@bmg6229]

Something that validates your theory is that in his fight against Ichibei Ywach got competely drained of energy when he used the All Mighty So much in fact that he needed to sleep When he absorbed the Soul King and Mimijagi his "uses" of the full powered All Mighty increased Hence why he could use it 3 times when fighting Ichigo One to break his sword, one for his horn and in the other he breaked Ichigo's bones That's why when he descended to soul society he fought Aizen for a while without using the All Mighty Ichigo did drained a lot, not to say all of his energy

Tsukishima is mad underrated. His power is basically to alter your personal past with the swipe of his sword. It even works on inorganic matter too. CFYOW reveals that Fullbringers have a piece of the Soul King in them. My headcannon is that Book of The End was inherited by the Soul King(its heavily hinted that SK had the Almighty as well) as the 'antithesis' to the Almighty. One controls the past and one controls the future. I'd Tsukishima trained more I don't think it would be a stretch that his abilities could counter or cancel out YH. Or maybe the SK had seen everything in the future and made Book of the End to keep Almighty in check. Hell Tsukishima even kind of favors Yhwach a little. I wonder If Tsukishima is an ancestor of the SK. What do y'all think?

I thought all the Fullbringers would be a more clear counter to the Almighty since their abilities effect opponents regardless of reiatsu. I also thought that Aizen might use the Hogyoku somehow to turn Uryu into a vizard and make the A the Antithesis unabsorbable by Yuha..

Aizen’s Bankai could possibly be something like Ichibei’s where the shikai is actually more useful than the Bankai. And aizen prefers to use shikai, and there are too few situations where his bankai would actually be more useful than shikai.

Small fix. Aizen wasn’t lucky. He just isn’t always sure what you see when you’re hypnotized. He made that clear during the him vs captains fight. Once you get going it seems to take on a mind of its own. So I think he said that last part because it was actually him realizing what the all mighty was seeing at the time

[@CNNBlackmailSupport]

He was lucky that Ywach was susceptible, knowing his powers of godly foresight. You'd think the Almighty would be capable of seeing through trickery, which is why the book of the end was needed. It isn't trickery happening as far as reality goes. He is actually inside their past as it occurred, not just some visual hallucination or altered memory, per se. I'd even be willing to be that without book of the end throwing Ywach off, Aizen couldn't actually do anything. Of course, the key piece is that book of the end would only have worked AFTER Ywach broke the Ichigo's sword. Too early and Ywach would not have crossed the point where he believed he had dealt with it, causing him to break it in the new past. Aizen kept Ywach from noticing book of the end, and book of the end reset the sword's destruction. Both were required, and both had to be applied at the right time or it would have failed.

[@lifewhatsoever]

I think it was stupid of Kubo to come up with so many abstract abilities because there seem to be many plot holes that you just have to rationalise. I hope they explain it somehow in the anime series because I don’t know how Yhwach could not see Ishida’s arrow. It’s also very convenient that Aizen’s ability seems to basically render the Almighty useless. The way I understand it. Yhwach should have foreseen that Aizen would try that and therefore his ability shouldn’t work at all (as it’s been previously explained that he cannot be affected by any ability he’s foreseen). Now if we assume that he couldn’t have predicted that because Aizen can control his sight then essentially the Almighty is completely useless against Aizen. Arguably, this would mean that Aizen could defeat him on his own in some circumstances.

For those of you still confused about Tsukushima power, it's the concept they used in Avengers Endgame. When they removed the stones from the reality, it created a new future timeline divergent (remember when Bruce met the Ancient One). However, if they put the stones back EXACTLY where they got them from time wise, then there's no divergent timeline. Tsukushima inserting into the past, creates a new timeline in that person (including their sword a manifestation of their spiritual power because they're connected) thus it created a timeline where Ywach NEVER broke Ichigo's bankai specifically for his past. Therefore, Orihime could heal it, because even if she saw it, she could still heal it cause it no longer is in the timeline for Ichigo.

[@LiakScanth]

The series after the defeat of Askin was horribly rushed and left a plethora of unanswered questions. I think the staff admitted that sometime before 2 years. Nevertheless, I hope the new anime completes the manga in every aspect and give us what we didn't get due to the publisher's pressure on Kubo. I'm sure the man had plans for a 1v1 of Yhwach and Aizen.

[@Yokai_Yuri]

This is overplaying Aizen and Tsu way too much. Even Aizen himself admitted that Kyoka Suigetsu can slightly alter the Almighty perception so it is not a full counter. Also, this is more of a plot-related theme rather than Aizen's power actually affecting Ywach. If Ywach sees the future and he notices something went wrong, by the time that something happens in the present he just modifies the present (back then the future) and he becomes immune to whatever he has been affected with. It is basically a buckle loop.

5:25 One thing - if we believe in theory of multiple potential futures, we should also consider theory of multiple timelines, which implies infinite pasts that can lead to the present. We love to believe that there is one past - as we lived through it, but we will also only live through one future - so either there is only one timeline for us and there is no infinite possibilities and in fact no infinite pasts, or there isn't just one specific timeline and change/choice isn't only an illusion.

To put things in terms of vehicular traffic: Ywach controls the roads and can look at how traffic will flow. Then he can choose to change the flow of traffic by shutting down roads, putting up signage, posting traffic cops, sabotaging the roads, etc. Aizen is the news. He’s the traffic helicopter. He can report false traffic to Ywach. Tsukishima is able to build new, secret roads that Ywach isn’t aware of unless he actually stops and tries to find them, but that the traffic already knew about. Shortcuts, alleys, bridges, tunnels, etc. Somehow I think I lost track of my metaphor somewhere along the way.

Good video again. I think you should do one on Aizen's kyoka suigetsu ability as it clearly evolved post sealing. Since Aizen fused with his sword kyokasuigetsu seems to trap you by just looking at Aizen himself....possibly. Also, it seems to now create illusions that Aizen didn't intend for. Remember he made Juha see Renji in bankai form but Aizen never saw Renji's new bankai so it is possible that kyoka suigetsu is using info from the opponent's mind in some aspect. I think too Aizen power being restricted by the black seals on his body limited Kyoka Suigetsu's influence. This can be a possible reason why it was operating a bit differently as Aizen powers were restricted close to him...possibly explaining why he was subbing for the illusions of Renji and Ichigo...he had to go in close for it to work.

[@calvitocalvon1711]

Makes sense, yhwach CAN SEE FUTURE TIMELINES, To see one has to purposely LOOK at will, yuha would need infinite energy to percieve every timeline ever, so he has to choose what to see, the answer to his ability is to overwhelm his cognitive abilities, throw so much stuff at him that he has no time to SEE THE FUTURE and choose where to go

[@nielsdegroot2997]

I always explained it as Yhwach being able to see every potential future and choose which 'split' in the timeline to let happen. 'Book of the End' makes a split in the timeline before the split that Yhwach foresaw and decided on, thus making it so Yhwach's split never even came up. I think this is pretty much what you also meant? (Really hard to explain it text, very easy with a visual aid). Also; I think Aizen may have just realised that Yhwach saw an ambush coming, or expected it to happen himself (remember that Aizen planned over 100 years into the future). He then uses his 'Perfect Hypnosis' to make Yhwach live through a rough duplicate. Yhwach thinks he has dealt with that threat so he doesn't expect the real ambush to still be in the future. Then again; what is 'real' when Aizen is involved...

[@drigondii]

Aizen can alter your perceptions, but his comments throughout the Manga and Anime make consistent note of the fact that, beyond the particular alterations he desires to make, kyouka suigetsu fills in the blanks for him, and he doesn't know what other changes have been made to his targets' perception. He didn't specifically make Yhwach see him as Ichigo, simply as his priority in the fight. But because Yhwach saw Ichigo as the biggest threat, kyouka suigetsu made Aizen appear to be Ichigo. Aizen finds it fascinating that Yhwach's priorities were so fixed on Ichigo that THAT'S what kyouka suigetsu made him see.

[@Monty2289]

So before even watching everyone is already spot on. There are two distinct aspects Yhwach's power cannot stop and one shared aspect between both Aizen and Tsukushima's power that cannot be stopped. The first is the past and present. While Yhwach's power sees all possible futures it cannot alter what HAS happened especially in the form of memories. When Ichigo's bankai is 'fixed' it can be done so because as already established Book of the End manipulates the past of everything and everyone it cuts. And Aizen's power the present in the form of parallel experiences. What you did or rather what you are doing is defined only in how you experience every second of every moment which you do through your senses. And well Aizen can manipulate the 5 senses and probably the 6th sense since not even the ability to see spirit ribbons or pinpoint reiatsu can stop it. The one power both Kyoka Suigetsu and Book of the End share is absolution. It's not the simple matter of blocking a sword with a shield. There is no way to stop Book of the End. The only instance being that it causes Ichigo's friends mental damage because Tsukishima's own ability to twist the past perfectly isn't perfect. And Aizen has ABSOLUTE hypnosis. The thing is this clashes with the Almighty. There is no future that Yhwach sees even if it would 100% defeat Aizen because he legitimately cannot trust it.

Yhwach pronounciation is Yu-Ha-Va

[@mjm3091]

@@V.I.L.98 it kinda is not - his name is literally the same as Jewish God's and probably will be pronounced as Yahweh in new adaptation. Unless they decide to change pronouncation to not get massive backlash from those Jews that do not pronounce Tetragram. Even reading it as Jehova would be better choice to make.

I was thinking about the ability of the antithesis of Uryu, can he counter Kyoka Suigetsu? It was said that the ability of the antithesis is a change of events, so could Uryu change the event of using Kyoka Suigetsu's hypnosis back on Aizen?

[@ivanbackfromthecardshop8093]

I don't think he could just take the hypnosis off himself but it would probably be effective at damaging aizen still.

[@konstantinkachanovsky2960]

@@ivanbackfromthecardshop8093 If he somehow found out that he was under hypnosis and would use an antithesis, then according to the logic, hypnosis should work on Aizen, although this is certainly debatable, cause we don’t completely know how Kyoka Suigesu works. It’s just that all these thoughts led me to the fact that we clearly underestimate the abilities of the antithesis, this is actually one of the strongest abilities in Bleach.

[@ivanbackfromthecardshop8093]

@@konstantinkachanovsky2960 I don't think you can out aizen under his own hypnosis. The activation for his hypnosis is seeing his zanpakutos release which he has obviously done which means uryu would be in the same position after being swaped. So even assuming uryu can swap more than physical damage it should be ineffective. Even if we were to pull some bs and it did work aizen would still be fine. Uryu would get out of hypnosis but aizen can't fall for his own hypnosis. 1 because it makes no sense to be fooled by an illusion you are actively controlling and 2 because he is fused with his zanpakuto.

[@konstantinkachanovsky2960]

​@@ivanbackfromthecardshop8093 Yes, antithesis ability is the change of events, so it goes beyond just physical damage, so it could swap things like poisoning, or probably even Soi-Fon's shikai marks. And I meant Aizen before merging with his zanpakuto, but yes, he will definitely understand that he is under his own illusion and immediately cancel it, but I think that Uryu will be able to get out of hypnosis.

[@silvertongue.242_99]

He wouldn't know when he's under it to use his ability he probably dead before activation

Could you make a video listing the top 50 beings in the bleach verse, from manga, anime, novels and games, I and many others would love to see it

[@jpx8459]

@@metalface_villain heyy, sorry I'm replying late, I think prime soul king would be #1, they described him as "a being that transcends all things", it was in a bleach databook, I haven't seen it myself though, but it makes sense, cause that's what it seems like the hogyoku was trying to do for Aizen, continually transcend his past limitations

Imagine book of the end but, with the spiritual pressure of ichigo lol

[@joaquincasascortes624]

People are downplaying tsukishima's ability. If only we knew its limits...like, could he tell to ichigo when he lost his shinigami powers "You have not lost your powers" and he regain them? I mean, if he fixed a bankai, he could totally do that...so...wouldnt the whole fullbringer arc pointless?

[@franciscodelangel1856]

So, Aizen-taicho still is THE most powerfull and smart character! I mean it dosent matter how powerfull Ywatch or his habilites are, if always are going to be under Aizen-taicho's control! COOL My love and respect for Aizen-sama it just got higher! Saludos from México!

[@prncwil]

I don’t think Ichigo ever arrived until he actually cut Yhwach. Aizen had Yhwach under his spell the entire time. I say this because when Ichigo and rengi initially get there Yhwach says “you got here quicker than I thought u would.” If u can see everything then u know when someone will arrive somewhere and at the exact time they will arrive. So when he used his power to break that Ichigo’s sword he was reaching to break a fictitious sword that Aizen created. That is furthered when Yhwach said “I tried to destroy the sword again”. He had already destroyed it once so it stands to reason that he can do it again without much effort since he didn’t use much effort the first time he broke it. Also there was no indication that he was close to or exceeding his limit when he uses his powers. Another thing is that make me question it is that prior to Yhwach meeting Aizen Rengi attacks him and his sword is broken. However, Rengi’s sword is fixed and he can use banki? They made a point to show that Orihemi fixed Ichigo’s sword, but they didn’t have time to heal him or Rengi but they had time to fix Rengi’s sword? You can try to say it happened off panel but more likely they didn’t show it b/c it didn’t happen. Also during the travel the Yhwach They make reference to how Rengi basically has no power but he’s doing what he can to give Ichigo the best opportunity to win. Also, look at the spirit bridge that Rengi is making it looks almost as bad as what Ichigo makes. Him being a vice captain you would think it would be better than that.

I loved seeing ichigo and aizen fighting together, i hope they include more people in the final fight in the anime

[@willfrei8592]

So with uryu I believe the reason the almighty wasn't able to perceive the threat is simply because the almighty does not see or affect timelines created by changing the past. Uryus antithesis changes the past by reversing what occurs between two individuals. It's actually haschwalth who is responsible for the victory as by offering himself up to swap the damage it's likely that the future ywach saw was one in which uryu had sustained heavy damage from his fight and either dies or doesn't arrive until later. So it's actually entirely reasonable that yhwach doesn't see it coming. It took me awhile to piece that together and I wish it was outright stated instead of seemingly just being a plot hole

[@xornedge8204]

Bleach became less and less about actual fighting skill and power, and became more and more about plot armor and bs powers for people who can't fight head on. It technically became a JoJo ffs.

This is false completely
