Zangetsu was repaired as a past version of itself, a version where Ichigo had those powers, so when Juha Bach blocked it, the superficial shell broke to reveal the real Zangetsu, as it was as a normal Asauchi.

My theory behind Heineko, is that it was modified by Gin Ichimaru giving her part of his soul, after Aizen stole some of it, which is why both their Zanpakuto take the form of particles. It also explains why Rangiku hasn't developed a Bankai, even though she is very close with her Zanpakuto Spirit and an older member of the Gotei 13. It is very possible that Gin's Bankai was incomplete, lacking the control necessary to use it like Heineko. Gin was mostly a threat because of his martial skill as a Shinigami, being the only member of Aizen's faction that didn't get a power boost from the Hogyoku.

People don't give Renji enough credit, he is basically Bleach's Piccolo, being a technical fighter but not being written well to emphasize his strength. For example, we see that Zabimaru can be used to corner an opponent by manipulating the battlefield, as Renji did against Espada #8. Piccolo could easily use Multiform and Special Beam Cannon to overcome power gaps, as his Ki control is the best out of all of DBZ, able to create a weak attack that can be lethal, due to its structure,like Krillin's Destructo Disc.

*Theory:* Ichigo's Bankai seen at the end was actually his Shikai, since Juha Bach absorbed his Quincy Powers and his hollow powers were already merged with his Zanpakuto. This sets up another Arc where Ichigo can relearn his Bankai and still get a significant nerf, just like at the end of the Fake Karakura Town Arc. *Note:* Ichigo's power was also unstable usually, having explosive highs and extreme lows, as his 3 powers fought to gain balance. This is also why he had to wake up his Quincy Powers, in his fight with Juha Bach, so that he could properly integrate it before going into Bankai, to increase the stability of his power. *Edit:* Ichigo never actually learned how to use his Bankai, it was always his Quincy Powers that forced cooperation. With his Quincy Powers gone, he has to relearn his Bankai, as it no longer has his Quincy Powers intertwined with it, making its internal composition and abilities different.

You missed a kinda key point about Rangeku's blade--it's a derivative of Gin's (remember, he saved her after Aizen and his people attacked her by basically being what Rukia did to Ichigo, and transplanting some of his reitsu into her to keep her spiritual form from collapsing), and thus could be extremely scary if her Bankai parallels his the same way her shikai does. If her blade follows the same pattern his does, turning to dust to act as a long-range weapon in the shikai, and then gaining lethal poison in the bankai, her blade could be unbelievably lethal. Imagine if Byakuya's blade shards had Gin's poison, never mind what that poison's effects look like for anybody who isn't Aizen.

Something I always had in mind for Heinako is that one scene during Fake Karakura where she uses it as a shield. If she ever managed to use that properly: she might be able to contain enough finess to manipulate it in a way that doesn't involve attacking. Even in just her Shikai state: imagine using the ability of the ash to physically hold people and objects without harming them (similar to Smokers White Out attack from One Piece) or else manifest into a solid for to attack in ways other then a blade. Senbon Zakura would still be vastly more powerful as an attack: but Rangikus would be much more versatile for other uses.

That adds a lot to its versatility. Additionally, is it harder for a user to swing their sword, or does Tenken feel as light as swinging a normal sword?

I actually suspect that her blade is much more dangerous than people assume. Remember, her powers are a product of Gin transplanting his reitsu into her to keep her alive after Aizen attacked her, which is why her blade shares its dust theme with his (ie. both shikai involve their blades turning into dust to attack at long range). If her bankai follows this pattern, it's likely that her blade's release will gain lethal poison, which is a really scary threat given the damage that Gin's poison did to even somebody like Aizen.

It mimics its user exactly, so it depends on the user's speed, if say Yoruichi used Flash Step with this thing it'd move so fast everything would be gone. But Komamura is a tank so giving him more power but also an easier target just doesn't help either.

Yeah, for the cost of feeding on the user’s soul, the Tsuniyashiro family zanpakutou can mimic (almost) any zanpakutou shikai in existence, and the effects scale to the reiatsu of the user. In the hands of a captain level shinigami like Tokinada, hisagomaru allowed him to regenerate an arm! Pretty damn useful. It was also interesting to see some of the highest tier zanpakutou used to a lesser extent than their original wielders. Kyoraku notes that Ryujin Jaka in Tokinada’s hands pales in comparison to Yama. Even more interestingly, since Tokinada leagues below Aizen’s level of reiatsu, aura is able to subdue his mimicry of Kyoka Suigetsu by reiatsu crushing it

To me it always seemed like In bleach a zanpakto was as strong as its user was creative. So many characters have seemingly simple powers but they only expand on them as they become stronger. I would imagine like Yumickika, Ikaku'a Zanpakto also has some kind of other ability but he never bothered to develop it because he just wants to fight. Renji feels like a good example of this. His sword extends sort of like Ichimaru's, but he also swings it around at high speeds, uses it to grapple opponents, and breaks it apart to attack separately as projectiles. Every zanpakto probably has potential to be used in many ways, but you have to look for them and be creative.

If he can use it on himself I could see him taking a few hits, healing himself, and then firing a blast when he gets enough power. Its versatility would be very high as the user can heal themselves and fire a devistating long range attack after doing so. It also looks like it can store power from previous healing session so he could also just save up until a blast is actually needed. The problem is that he cant use the actual blade to hurt people but that's easily fixable by having another weapon. THEORY SECTION, DONT READ IF NOT INTRESTED. Can the thing double charge power. I dont know if he actually HAS to release the power once its stored but if he doesn't have to and it can just power up indefinitely then it becomes super OP, considering one charge can fend off an menos grande beam. I guess the whole healing himself thing is also a theory/headcanon. But its still good as long as he just stays in the back.

Zabimaru really represents Renji's personality. I see it as angry, relentless, sacrificial, erratic, and grasping for power. If Renji had 100 years to work on his bankai, it would be a top contender. Given its modularity, I could see it eventually becoming multi-headed like a hydra, and then lock down the enemy with its unpredictability. As it is, I think his zanpakuto is less about damage and more about battlefield control. Basically, its strength lies in moving the enemy rather than killing them. If Renji fought side-by-side with someone who locks enemies in place but needs precise positioning, like Rukia or Soi Fon, the effect of his power would be profound

I actually disagree with the placement of Hisagemaru. If we take into account the fact that the user is extremely unskilled and has a low power level, then the weapon actually scales pretty well in comparison. We can’t forget that the user is extremely low ranked and therefore has a weak spiritual pressure. In the hands of a skilled combatant with experience it would be very impressive as they would be able to heal their own injuries in the midst of combat while retaliating with an overpowered counterattack. This weapon, given that the user does not receive a fatal blow, can potentially ensure that the user never dies in the middle of combat. It is essentially like Unohana’s fighting style automatically. Without having to waste your time with actual healing Kido. Not only is the healing instant, but we haven’t even seen the limits of what they can heal. For example with detached limbs.

Notes on a few of these: - Haineko is pretty decent of a Zanpaktou, many of the Vaizards had it way worse. Matsumoto did defeat Kira one on one with it off screen in the Soul Society arc, meaning it probably has enough of an offensive presence to be a threat. However it seems more of a defensive Zanpaktou over anything else, which is actually interesting. Matsumoto was able to fend off Mila Rose and Apache's attacks with it. - For Tobiume: In the anime-only, there's a scene where Apache fires a Cero at Hinamori + Matsumoto, and Tobiume instantly goes from its base form to its Shikai without any release command, indicating that Hinamori would technically have her bankai done. - Hanatarou's Zanpaktou isn't bad (at least not top 10 bad) when you consider that he can cut himself or his injured allies before releasing a blast. He doesn't necessarily have to hit bad guys and heal them to charge the scalpel.

Imagine if she could create objects with the cloud of bladed/metal ash, like spears, shields or a sort of localized ash hailstorm to shred the opponents, possibly infiltrating their wounds and mouth and kill them from the inside out, like Senjomaru did to the distortion Quincy. And Bankai wouldn't even be out of the question, since the Zanpakuto Rebellion even gave both her and Haineko a nice chance to bond. And since Rangiku is one of the most seasoned vice-captains in the series, it's so sad to see her be underused.

so there is one fact about hozukimaru you got wrong. ikkaku spinning it around doesn't increase its power, hozukimaru gets stronger the longer it fights and the more it wakes up. i believe that ikkaku even stated that hozukimaru is a slow starter and that he either has to slash things up or get slashed up in order to fully awaken hozukimaru

Thanks for saying what I've been thinking forever. Hiyori's blade is just Renji's but way worse.

even though hanataros zanpakuto is one of the weakest, its uniqueness and rarity of a zanpakuto to heal is why he is one of my favorite character in bleach. hisagomaru and minazuki is the only zanpakutos i know that heals, are there others beside them?
@echoesactiii37403 жыл бұрын
Hisagomaru would be great in the context of a team fight, pair him up with Ikkaku and they solo 90% of Bleach.
@justinbeatrix4013 жыл бұрын
if I remember tokinada uses hanataro's zanpakuto to heal himself and then send back this huge wave of energy, so I think the zanpakuto by itself is actually pretty impressive

I think #3 has more versatility than you give it credit for. The problem lies with the wielder being a non-combat medic, not the weapon being a one shot wonder (which might not be the case. He has little to no official combat training because he's in a non-combat corp, so he has no idea about the outer limits of his blade). Imagine having a blade that heals the person struck and actually still wanting to treat it as a sword. He should train his own body for cqc instead and use it to heal himself and/or allies, and use the scalpel form to augment his cqc with precision strikes. Those things are sharp as heck so going after the major arteries along with kidou and hand to hand would be the best possible strategy until he achieved bankai.

Zennosuke's zanpakuto was given the short end of the stick as it was used to stall in an unwinnable fight. Against an opponent near his level, it would likely be terrifying when used correctly. It would also be insanely good in group battles as a crowd control/ defense method.

I never thought much of Ukitake’s Sōgyo no Kotowari Against Starrk its pretty good because of Starrks powerset, but its a sword that fully relies on the opponents powers to do anything, if he’s up against an opponent who doesn’t use energy attacks, like lets say Ggio Vega, then his weapon doesn’t accomplish anything and even worse, the charmed tassle connecting the two might even hinder him in the matchup

@cary46033 жыл бұрын
Now that I think about it, part of the “power” that comes from a ZANPAKTUO is derived from the Reitsu of its Shinigami. When I say power though I am referencing it strength and killing prowess. I am remembering Aizen’s comment about Soifon’s stinger insta-kill and how it did not affect him because the gap in the level of their respective reitsu was massive. Aizen’s amount of personal Reitsu was enough to swallow her insta-kill ability despite landing a second blow to him. So technically each of these Zanpaktuo are limited not by their own degree of potential, but actually are limited by the Reitsu reservoir and experience of the Shinigami they serve. That would explain the unique way the Zanpaktuo seemed to behave and the extra abilities they seemed to have in the Zanpaktuo Rebellion arc. They were free from their masters and thus had free reign to express how much or how ever little they want of what they are capable. That explains The Giant Zanpaktuo having a flaming mouth despite just appearing as a giant samurai in its Bankai state. It was free to express more of itself that Komura had not mastered or cared to explore. Plus it appears some of the Zanpaktuo also require a form of maturation like a living being. In summary, these weaker Zanpaktuo could… 1…. be immature and need time and training to develop, as some of them do appear to be “youthful” when they materialize in the Zanpaktuo Rebellion. Examples… (Soifon, Heineko, Momo) 2…. Be Weakened by the lack of Reitsu they have access to from their Shinigami weilders to fully explore their abilities. Examples... (Momo, Heiniko) 3…. Appear Underdeveloped because their Shinigami weilders do not have the skill, time or motivation to utilize they abilities of the Zanpaktuo. Examples… (Momo, the Medical Shinigami with a scalpel for a Zanpaktuo, your honorable mention character who purposefully mispronounced his Zanpaktuo name)

Tobiume might have a small advantage. It might have its own supply of Kido for its fireballs instead of the Shinigami's using their own supply to fire any Kido spells.

As I am now re-watching bleach at this moment I have to agree with you on this that renji's zanpakuto is really weak. Each time I see him in a fight with an opponent and seeing him struggling, I say to myself 'aren't you a lieutenant, you should of least have the upper hand & some his moves are always the same', IN MY OPINION.

Zabimaru in the Soul Society fight with Ichigo and the Espada fight in Hueco Mundo, are when it truly showcases its strengths, Renji's Zanpakuto is one of the few that can actually box in an opponent, limiting their movement, to the point where he can capture them or hit them with a strong Kido attack.
