Thank you all so much for helping the channel reach 250,000 subscribers! Let's celebrate with a...difficult ranking, shall we? Yeah, this was a tough one, and I'm still not totally happy. In the video, I try to separate the Schrift from the Sternritter as best as possible, but I'm not content with the placement of certain powers, like The X-Axis. What do you think? Let me know your thoughts on the ranking in the comments, and how you might change it up - thanks everyone!

Congratzzz. Now, about Antithesis vs Ballance placement, while fight between 2 is one eternal uno reverse, overal, Anti is better, and that is if we exclude connection with shield and sword (even tho, i'm almost sure that shield and sword are necesery for ballance, as one absorb and one redistribute) Reasons why it's better is that user of Ballance can be 1 shotted, there is nothing to redirect if user is not alive to do it, afaik, there is no post mortem Ballance. On the other hand, Anti user reverse events between 2 points, but it's never said you have to experience end result of that event, just to be in event ocural, basicly, if someone shot on a Anti user, anti user can reverse even that event, be it possitions with bullet, or shooter, or even bullet back, who knows, so tehnicly, killing Anti user should be impossible, if he realy wish it. Other reason is, we saw, in 100% of situations that Ballance turn good fortune in to damage, and just damage, be it person (Cang, Uryu) or object (cage of life). Anti however, can pritty much reverse anything, as long as there is target for it.

The visionary is limited to spiritual power and how many thoughts the user can hold, and he needed to directly touch his victims in order to perform a fatal attack so he can't randomly just erase characters he hasn't created himself. This is why he promised to challenge kenpachi without using his own hands and only his mind, where he needed to clone himself in order to increase his shrift power to get the comet or the space warp. How many clones he can make is based on how many thoughts he can keep up, I belive Kubo tried to make a philosophical standpoint that imagination is limited (by the user) and it plays so well in to the power system of bleach that despite how broken one ability are it needs spiritual power to be effective. This is the whole reason why Soifon can't go around and double tap anyone if they are immensely strong (like hogyoku Aizen or Gerard) and they needed a hard counter (bg9) focused on just keeping her at bay. Otherwise you are correct if gremmy had grown more mature and stronger he would be almost unstoppable.

Only that she ate PePe and at some time (the novel specifies this time to be the battle against Yhwach) she could've used his powers, but refused to do so. It states that at the end she only ate PePe out of retribuition and for replenishing Reiryoku.

"There's no limits, no shackles" In regards to The Visionary this simply cannot be true. In order to summon a meteor, Gremmy has to create a duplicate of himself to double his imagination (whatever that means). It seems incredibly unlikely that Gremmy is simply incapable of imagining a meteor by himself, so it only follows that there's some kind of arbitrary "brainpower" component which does function as a limit (albeit a limit that can seemingly be bypassed by cloning yourself lol).

@@revenantronin8377 Cutting space is nothing in Bleach. Any Soul Reaper "stabs" space in order to open a Senkaimon Gate and Hollows have been able to rip open space to create dimensional rifts (garganta) with their bare claws since chapter 3. Not to mention Grimmjow rending space with his Gran Ray Cero. Gremmy's mistake was thinking that wrapping Kenpachi in the fabric of space would do anything and is a testimont to his inexperience. A result of him being locked away all his life. Technically speaking, any Soul Reaper or hollow (at the very least Base Grimmjow's level and above) would be able to do the same and break out of that. Nianzol doesn't merely twist space. The construct itself is what twists and bends around him. Anything he instinctively perceives can not touch him and will even split apart to avoid him. If not even the 0 Division can do anything about that power, then it stands to reason Kenpachi couldn't either. Kenpachi's only chance would be to blitz him so utterly that he is cut down because he can even instinctively become aware of Kenpachi. Which is basically how Shutara killed him. That's a fair excuse. I could see him wearing Nianzol like a suit of armor until he was ready to let loose. I imagine they messed up the order. The only way they make sense is if Loyd was supposed to go first and hold off Kenpachi while Berenice applied his question, and Kenpachi gradually lost himself to that question. I don't know how Jermome fits in, though. He shouldn't be anywhere near Berenice. Honestly, though, it just doesn't make any sense to send any of them. There are so many others that would have destroyed Kenpachi. Pernida, for example. Besides, Loyd can perfectly copy the enemy's power and abilities. Why the hell wasn't he sent to copy Unohana?

One thing that stands out about these Sternritter abilities in Bleach is just how varied and conceptually extreme they are. Abilities like Le's "X-Axis" aren't just powerful-they bend the fabric of reality itself. I mean, the fact that he erases everything in his line of sight rather than just shooting a bullet is almost absurdly overpowered, not to mention becoming intangible at the same time. On the other hand, abilities like Gizelle's "The Zombie" are pure nightmare fuel. The idea of using her own blood to enslave both living and dead beings, even Shinigami, is chilling. It's a gruesome, manipulative power that adds a horror element to the series, which makes her one of the more unsettling characters in the Sternritter. To be honest, the power scaling in Bleach is wild at times-abilities like these make you wonder how any of the Shinigami even stood a chance without pulling off near-impossible feats of their own. It's this constant one-upmanship in abilities that gives Bleach its intensity, but also sometimes leaves you questioning how balanced these powers really are.

It's why Death Dealing hugs that line. It is a pretty physical ability that deals with tangible concepts like lethal dose but then it throws that away into a pit of "F you" because what the hell is a lethal dose of reiatsu.

It’s truly broken and outside of the Almighty, Visionary, & like I said before MAYBE the balance/antithesis, and Lisa’s sword it has no counters and no downsides whatsoever. Immortality, invulnerability, and attacks that can not be blocked/dodged is stupid overpowered.

@@kingofafrica7015that’s not true. The fact that everything he “imagines” actually happening and having to “concentrate” to upkeep his imagination is a weakness created to make it more balanced.

The Superstar possibilities: - Mask's real name is James, and the little guy is the power externalized; whether that's him shedding weakness or just using the bare minimum to set up a cheerleader - James was originally a normal guy, but whenever Mask revives him he gets smaller, weaker, and weirder - They're the same person split into multiple reishi bodies; each is The Superstar and each can use reishi manipulation to boost the other's power; this version would theoretically allow James to gain power on par with Mask's for a surprise attack

I think the Visionary had two major downsides you didn't mention that were linked together. 1. The Visionary is highly prone to backfiring, if the user so much as imagines themselves being hurt they will be hurt making it hard to imagine themselves healthy again. 2. This removes the normal human ability to plan ahead and make contingencies against possible failures because even considering those possibilities causes them to come true. Gremmy is, in my opinion, such an idiot because he had to be completely isolated from harmful ideas or else he would have killed himself before he even made it to the battlefield.

Do a video on Aizen and his Espada army vs Yhwach and his sternritters. I think the quincy are definitely the better group but with the type advantage aizens crew has it might be closer than we think. It was only til after the war that the remaining quincy are immune to hollow powers. With aizen trancending himself with some hollow like powes on top of his kyoka suigetsu he can probably challenge yhwach before the soul king absorption. So this hypothetical battle would be there is no ichigo and aizen just wins against the shinigami, lets just thanos them for the sake of this battle. Aizen returns to soul society with his oken and tries to go up to the palace and face the zero division but right before hand yhwach returns and invades. Aizen group vs ywach group on soul society grounds.

The Antithesis is broken in terms of story logic. If it can really exchange between people and objects at will as suggested with what anime shows then someone inteligent like Uryu would just cut some rock in half and make it happen to Haschwalth killing him immidietly. Beside that it is really broken holden back immensly by being attached to Uryu similar to Gremmy - without taking it into an acount Uryu is just not strong enough to not be killed in one shot by many of strong characters either immidietly or after using anthihesis once on them and then failing to finish them before they manage to focus enough to kill him.

A common misunderstanding about Gremmy's Visionary is that it isn't as OP as it sounds on paper. Don't get me wrong it's still ridiculously strong and has the biggest potential to fodderize most enemies, but that's almost all it can do. It's biggest flaw is it's actual limitations. His ACTUAL power isn''t unrestricted imagination like most would believe but requires focus and concentration for it's effects to apply. Where it starts to scale off hard is how those limitations can be bypassed by higher tier characters in the story. (Like how Zaraki can shrug off most of his imagination through sheer brute force and Yachiru's cookie bones got undone by breaking Gremmy's concentration) He isn't capable of power-nulling or instant death (maybe to fodder characters), and the literal reason why he died was because his power isn't completely limitless. He gets off-scaled pretty hard by the higher tiered sternritters because the Elite-SS's powers have no restrictions unlike Gremmy's, even if they are less diverse and destructive. For example you can get around Gremmy through sheer force and breaking his focus, but their is absolutely no way to get through Gerald or Haschwalth's abilities. That being said tho, it's still one of the absolute strongest hax abilities in Bleach, it's just that it isn't some kind of deus ex machina reality warping ability most would like to believe.

The shield is what allows Jurgam to take away all his misfortune and double the damage back to you. Without the shield Jugram cant escape misfortune because he is only sending back half back to you.
