[@FranklyImaPerson]

The splitting souls concept is interesting, and I never see anyone talk about this, because it is among the only explanations for Kenpachi and his lieutenant, later revealed to be his zampacto spirit, Yachiru. Yachiru always was Kenpachi's zampacto spirit, but it was shown time and again that they can act separately and each having their own personalities and priorities. Hell Yachiru even had her own release state for her sword. This concept of subdividing ones self to alleviate boredom or loneliness comes in because when does Kenpachi first meet her? After yet another of a long line of battles, with him alone in the forests of Zaraki with no one left who could challenge his place as king of the mountain. Only then does Yachiru show up. Unafraid of him, and it is only then that he first bequeathes himself a name, as well as giving one to her It is repeated time and again that the zampacto is not something separate from you but literally, specifically your soul made manifest. His soul could not speak to him, and it went so far as to make something external to talk with because Kenny would never introspect without it.

[@bashamd96]

It even goes deeper when we learn Kenpachi even subconsciously shut himself off from his blade to try and make his fights fun again and how Yachiru really only wanted to have that dialogue as Soul Reaper and Zanpakuto whenever Kenpachi would try and ask his sword it's name after the Ichigo fight Yachiru would always try speaking up to start it like she wants but Kenny would just tell her to shut up cause he's just unaware of what she's doing and just thinking she's gonna say her normal cheering on while he's trying to have a serious moment Honestly it'd have been kinda fun to see Kenpachi vs Stark before he awakened his zanpakuto and she disappeared with this new context for Yachiru the 2 split souls both taking different paths of handling it Stark openly embracing his other half to try and fill his loneliness and Kenpachi who rejects his other half despite her best efforts to try and ease his boredom

I'm alone. . . . . Why do I have to fight someone this strong? I've always envied the weak. The souls of all my friends diminished, just by being in my presence. I was left alone . . . and isolated. In the depths of my loneliness, we divided our soul into two. I can't recall what our original form was. Maybe it wasn't like either one of us. In the end, I finally realized it didn't matter. It was the only way I could escape the solitude. That's why I envied the weak; you can stay with the pack if your weak. Since it was impossible for me to be weak, at least I had a comrade who matched my strength.

Had to fuse with his companion for his release. And Kenpachi, who is one of the strongest shinigami. Had his zanpakuto as his companion.

I want Starrk to return. He's my favorite character in Bleach. He not only has one of the most unique powers and fighting style, but he's the Arrancar counterpart to Shunsui, who's already impressive himself. Edit: Also, Tekking, you forgot to mention that Starrk is lazy. That's why he was defeated so easily. He wasn't as motivated to fight as the other Espada. He even states his intentions to sit out the war to Shunsui.

[@djmeagaaim17]

[@superpipi1342]

I think that was what Kubo was going for. If you think about it, all of the espada are very minimalistic characters, and very poetic also, one-note even. Haribel is the living representation of her aspect of dead and her being betrayed by Aizen is tragic as well, Ulquiorra is a tragic and beautiful tale of philosophical nihilism and the same goes for Starkk. I know Bleach is a battle manga, but I think Starkk's story is beautifully tragic, and I think Kubo did an amazing job.

[@gintokilearnedbankai5938]

[@HampterClam]

Eraeven that’s what I always thought. He made a damn intriguing character though

[@LupineShadowOmega]

I doubt that, because it seems like if he just needed an Ace Barragan would have been it, him being the King and all. If anything, Starrk seems like a subversion of the established power structure, because he was the mysterious outlier that no one had an explanation for. Kubo just went back to the well too often making that also true of Yammy.

[@HampterClam]

LupineShadowOmega I respect that

[@crustywaffles1110]

Crazy how he just made up a character and it ended up being one of the best characters in the goddamn show

[@MagicCardboardBox]

Read a fanfic once where starrk fought barragan and won because barragan couldn't effect the wolves starrk could make because they were pure soul fragments. In bleach, people die, but the souls just keep going, they continuously reincarnate forever. It was a neat concept, I know that the espada were ranked by spiritual pressure, but it was fun to think that there was a reason he was number one, that he'd be the only one who could defeat barragan.

[@lone7892]

If what Aizen said about Shinigami fights being about the reiatsu (look at his conversation with Sui-Feng or Soi Fon when she stabs him and her ability doesn't work) THEN if the same thing applies to Arrancar (which is probably true) then the immense reiatsu of Starrk makes him immune to Baraggan's ability.

[@jacobfoxfires964]

One way to look at things. And with my simple mind, it makes enough sense to me.

[@kenpanderz672]

Starrk destroys the cover with his spiritual pressure every time Kubo tried to make one, so Kubo just gave up.

[@Zorkii]

Would've been cool if Kubo made a cover with Starrk leaning on the book binding and Lilynette on the back of the manga leaning on the binding also. So if you open both ends they're leaning on each other's backs. Also wish he came back in the final arc like Grimmjow did.

[@EveryDayALittleDeath]

The thing is, if Kubo wanted to bring Starrk back into the story, Starrk’s power to split his soul would let him do it in a way that wouldn’t even be all that ass-pully. Just make it so Starrk split another portion of his soul off at some point before Fake Karakura. It would explain why Starrk’s fight seems so underwhelming- he’s not fighting at full strength because he literally doesn’t have it with him. Maybe the reason could be that Aizen told him to do it so his Reiatsu wouldn’t kill everyone again or something, idk. But it’d be nice to have more time with Starrk given how underused he was for how hype he should have been given his Espada rank.

Starrk is the Shunsui of the espada. Primera 1st Espada just as Shunsui becomes Captain commander . Similar in nature Loneliness and solitude. Yet solitude is had in peace and contentment. Youll often find shunsui laying under a tree gazing at the sky in blissfull solitude. And maybe with some sakè . But I admire the strength in both .

[@sixteenthbluemoon7606]

Perhaps in another world, both Shunsui and Starrk would've been sharing tea together. Iirc, other fans in other vids said if they were able to talk it out, Starrk would probably have gotten to the former's side.

[@Luna-se9ln]

@@sixteenthbluemoon7606 I can easily see that happening . Shunsui has an innate respect for sentient life but as a captain he also upholds his duty . To slay hollows . Perhaps if as head captain he met Starrk things would be different because then he'd have the power to choose peace cause all Starrk wanted was a friend someone who could comprehend him and exist near him. And shunsui would view that as an innocent desire/goal. To want a friend. Shunsui would respect such a goal/desire . Being the head captain no one would argue that an Espada/Vasto Lord and a captain co exist. If I remember correctly in the blood war arc Kisuke was helped and helps Grimjjaw and no fuss was made.. And I feel that upon sharing tea together a unique and strong bond would be formed. Like a ying and yang kinda deal . A bond rooted in both the darkness (hollow) and the light (shinigami).

[@sixteenthbluemoon7606]

@@Luna-se9ln Maybe from there, we see the flaw in Yamamoto's philosophy of slaying Hollows, like in another world where there are those who'd rather kill Youkai and others would want coexistence. Bleach Downfall (fanfic) actually illustrates this properly imo, except there are characters who have switched roles. And yeah, if and if Shunsui became the head captain a little earlier than expected, even if the action is gone except it's gonna come from the quincies. Like you said, changes would be that it'll be a little easygoing with the quincies. The new conflict would come from both sides as others struggle for not coexisting and coexisting, developing their characters further. And yep, Kisuke brought Grimmjow and Nelliel in for the fun and fights although they were only briefly seen.

@@sixteenthbluemoon7606 I totally agree . Yamamoto philosophy is old school I guess . With Yamaji there is the good and then theres the bad . Nothing in between .There is no co existence. Same with the quincy . Yamaji tends to condemn the man based on the kind of creature they are . Fair to a certain point. Good for.upholding order. But this is where I feel shunsui is greater . He judges a person not by their species ie hollow quincy human. No he judges them based on the persons actions words morals values and heart. He treats every individual. Individually. Granting them respect if its due . This is where I feel he is a greater captain and a greater character (Not greater in power though :P)

While there’s definitely discussions on Ulquoirra surpassing him based on the sheer power of his second release, Barragan having a broken ability due to how metaphysical it can get or Yammy due to his highest reiatsu/raw power. Starrk is the most “evolved”/advanced of the Espada. The rest of them are very monstrous in their released forms or at the very least, their animal motifs are apparent. Starrk from a visual standpoint is trading his standard uniform with a katana for an ornate cowboy western outfit with guns that can fire multiple Ceros at once, summon exploding fully formed energy wolves and swords if he’s pushed to a corner. From that along, Starrk seems to be fighting on another plane of existence while the rest fight with the more basal energy attacks, regeneration and bizarre Hollow unique powers. With the obvious exceptions being Harribel with her Soul Realer Zanpakuto -esque water manipulation and Barragan’s aging powers.

[@ludicojo]

I actually really liked the pacing of Shunsui and Stark’s battle. They’re both strong, if not the strongest, staples within their respective organizations and to see them take it slow and strategic proves their strength even more and is a pleasant refresher against all the other big awesome flashy battles

I didn't realise until this video, but all of the espada that died were killed by their own aspect of death. Starrk died right after he lost Lillinette (loneliness), Barragan was killed by his own Respira/Ageing ability, Szayel went mad because of Mayuri's drug, etc. Maybe the only way to kill an espada is to use their aspect of death against them.

[@filipferencak2717]

All of the interesting ones, you mean.

Wonderweiss is pure. Ukitake couldnt sense him that's my headcanon

[@scottgrasser9737]

mine is a simple ukitake was distracted idea i think he was gazeing at the giant hollow thing

[@xavierstewart5756]

I didn’t think Ukitake shouldn’t have been nerfed like that in my opinion. I didn’t like that at all. I know it was to show how strong Wonderweiss is.

[@aizensosuke1491]

Ukitake was supposed to be the 4th strongest captain.

[@kingblackwaffle]

@@scottgrasser9737 i think itz both. He was distracted and a simple minded pure hollow *weird to say* got a good hit on him because he couldn't sense his motivation. Its like when ichigo fights he can sense someone's motivation. Wonderweiss most likely didnt have any intention just instinict.

[@kingblackwaffle]

@@xavierstewart5756 100% agree.

[@denniswilliams6519]

Outside of Grimmjow and Ulquiorra, I never felt that any of the Espada lived up to the hype given to them and seemed more wasted potential as characters than anything else. Starrk being the most visible example of this. He never felt like the Number 1 Espada. And the story didn't give him really enough to do to make the most of his concept.

[@FoxFace804]

Stark is really fun to play as in bleach soul resurrection

[@asherninicho4213]

I like playing him in bleach brave souls better

[@jdizzy192]

Are we ever gonna talk about Tosen using Ressureccion? Cuz that seems like a pretty big deal

[@viktorwillyam]

Since aizen perfected creating arracars (he can even create an arancar for a spessific purpose), it seems normal to me that he can also create a more perfect version of hollofication (a version that can use resurrection).

[@jdizzy192]

@@viktorwillyam But Ressureccion is specific to Arrancar. Think about it, Tosen was a shinigami who became a vizard who used a Hollow ability to regain it's natural power. He essentially used a form of hollowfication beyond hollowfication and that's so fucking cool. Can he still use his bankai in that state? If he is purified does he go back to being a plus? Can other Vizards learn the ability or is it a form that is only possible through Aizen's use of the hogeyoku(butched that spelling). Seriously it is such a cool concept that is never touched on again, and would hav been a nightmare for the Quincy's to deal with. Like imagine one stealing Love's bankai but him going Ressureccion instead, immediately poisoning the Quincy because they now hav hollow Reiatsu in them. So cool

[@viktorwillyam]

jdizzy192 if you think about it ichigo’s vasto lord form can be considered his resurrection. But again remember that the vizards were considered a “failed” experiment by aizen, which makes you wonder what a successful hollofication would look like (tossen). And aizen was studying this subject for hundreds of years probably, so it stand to reason that by the time the anime starts he could create a hollowfication with a resurrection

[@jdizzy192]

@@viktorwillyam I always thought his Vasto Lorde form was more Zangetsu going into panic mode because Ichigo was in trouble and fully supressing the Quincy portion of Ichigo in order to "help" him, I.e. operate at 100% of Ichigos potential, sans the Quincy part, to body anyone that gets too close. That said, even though the Vizard's are failed experiments they, with Urahara's help, hav learned to control their inner hollow. Could they naturally progress to the next stage or would it take some outside force for them to advance

[@viktorwillyam]

jdizzy192 kubo loves to introduce badass transformations and concept, but only to be shown once and never again. So In theory yeah all vizords could do that vasto lord thing. But ishigo is different because his hollow coms from his quincy mom... it’s a complicated plot.

[@Alessandro-vv2fh]

It was something to keep us interested. The fact that he was able to defeat the number one Espada without Bankai was basically a foreshadowing of how strong he really is.

Anybody else finding themselves wanting Stark to have a Original Demon moment/transformation like in Seven Deadly Sins? How awesome would it have been for Aizen to have offered Stark & Lily the chance to regain that true former power they once had?

Gonna be quite honest, when I saw this pop up on the right side of my feed I thought this said Coyote Stank Also, IF it is a pickup of the anime it NEEDS to be supervised by Kubo to some extent to fill out all the rushed material from the manga. This arc could be GODLY if properly spaced Edit: also complete rumors, but I've heard it pop up occasionally that people are speculating a long OVA or something similar

Kenpachi split his soul. The soul was yachiru who had her own shikai. Then yachiru disappears when kenpachi goes bankai. Stark split his soul and got lillinet. Lillinet had her own release. Stark uses resurrection but lillinet doesn't disappear. Does that indicate stark had a second release🤔

I like how when Stark goes into his Resurreccion, at least the gunslinger part of it, it kind of looks like he gains a second hollow hole over his eye right were lilynette's would be. Edit: Nevermind, It was just an eyepatch, but you get the point.

[@maxkogan3785]

The thing that always dissapointed me was that we never got see neither Segunda Etapa Ulquiorra nor Starrk's Grand Rey Cero I always wondered if Ulquiorra's Grand Rey Cero would've won him the battle against White/Ichigo.

[@pinoyjona]

A shame that Kubo killed him off when the manga was still ongoing at the time along with Harribel, her followers, and Grimmjow surviving and appearing during the Quincy War. Starrk and Lilynette would definitely have interesting fights and interaction with fights and other characters.

[@lucillefrancois150]

My headcanon is and always will be that the reason Kyoraku “cheated” was because Starrk, even in a 4v1, would have been too powerful to beat outright without Kyoraku using his bankai. He made the decision that it was better to cheat and live, than use his bankai and die I think this headcanon goes a long way to making him feel far far more powerful than is directly stated, since the idea Kyoraku would’ve been forced to use his bankai if he didn’t use underhanded tactics when he had 3 powerful pieces of backup is crazy. Especially cause the fight we see him forced to use it that’s basically a 1v1, making Starrk feel like he’d have been even beyond a lot of the quincies
