Toshiro Hitsugaya: THE PRODIGY | BLEACH: Character Analysis

Toshiro Hitsugaya is the youngest captain in Bleach. In this video I cover Hitsugaya’s various battles with Gin Ichimaru, Harribel, Yukio, Bazz B and Gerard just to name a few. Hitsugaya is a prodigy but due to his age he has yet to utilise his full potential, this is especially the case when he is easily angered by Aizen. Lets now analyse the past of Hitsugaya, as well as covering the current events and battles that take place involving his character.

He's the serious discipline captain but in the end he's a child I find that really interesting

[@tinnduin]

It makes sense that because he's a child, he acts that way to appear more mature and be taken seriously. He knows what he looks like and how young he is and how he will be seen because of that, so he most likely acts more serious and "grown up" to appear like less of a child to those under him and his colleagues. It's something kids tend to do in general but most of them aren't geniuses with extraordinary power who have seen war so it's usually more comical than effective. In his case, it is quite effective much of the time, though unfortunately has the likely effect (likely unintended based off how much it has been shown to bother him) of causing him to come across as quite cold and cruel. But at the end of the day he's still a kid masking a lot of trauma and fear and loneliness and being exploited by his people because of his power and potential. To be honest, the very existence of his character (not just a child soldier, but a child soldier in such a position of responsibility) honestly speaks to much of the darker aspects of their society and is one of the things I find the most interesting about his inclusion in the series. His very existence is a constant reminder of what lengths the Gotei will go to and the darkness that lies at the heart of their feudal system.

[@bebopknux5857]

I always thought Hitsugaya was a well rounded and respectable character, He's a prodigy and suffers all the flaws of being one, but instead of being depicted in a negative light we get to seem him come to terms with all the responsibilities he now faces from it, When he loses he loses, when he fights, he gives it his all And when he grieves we can all detect the pain. It's because of the fact he keeps striving for better things that we can all respect him as a character no matter how much he can fall.

[@manuelacosta9463]

He has quite the interesting duality, on one hand he's a serious fighter and diligent worker yet when put on the spot things get quite humorous with him, especially if Matsumoto's the one wailing on him. Still his dedication to protecting those he cares for is noble as Momo and grandma can attest. Oh and he's one of the few Shinigami who spared an opponent with Yukio, don't see that everyday in the Bleach-verse.

[@Raver-1601]

To be fair most of the enemies are to dangerous to be left alive. Besides there's quite some Shinigamis that spare their opponents or atleast tried, Ichigo (Grimmjow, Dordoni), Renji (Jackie), Rukia (Riruka), Ikkaku (Shishigawara), Ukitake (Lilynette), Unohana (heals Gantenbaine), Komamura (Bambietta), Soi Fon (BG9)

[@hdl2084]

I realized something, despite Gin and hitsugaya fighting each other in the beginning of bleach, both of them were quite similar. I mean the white hair ofcourse but also both were child prodigies who became liutenants/captains early on, both were obsessed with a certain female sould reaper so much so that their soul reaper duties would be subordinate when it came to the safety of momo in the case of hitsugaya and matsumoto in the case of Gin.

I feel like the reason alot of these characters are easily overlooked or even forgotten is because Kubo at least on the surface seems to value spectacle over substance. The story and concepts and meaning is there but for alot of people we had to wait nearly 15 years for a well educated KZbinr like yourself to spell it out for us. I just feel like everytime I see alot of bleach characters on screen I enjoy how it looks rather than the deeper message Kubo is trying to portray. Hitsugaya vs Yukio, I feel like that was just more about seeing 2 super chill and cool young kids rival each other, it looked cool but meant little as it wasnt memorable for me in the slightest. Or Hitsugaya turning into a zombie, I feel like that only happened so we can see a ganguro Hitsugaya, again because spectacle. Or When he matures into an adult for his Bankai, I feel like Kubo wanted us to enjoy the spectacle of seeing an adult version of this super popular, super cool kid before he ends his series. Almost like canon Fan art or Fanfic, because I cant for the life of me find any significance outside of "look how cool he looks". We're talking about ghost samurai's yet he looks like a rich 22 year old at a Yacht party. The designs are great and it does look really cool, all of bleach is well designed to a T. It's just I always end up remembering the looks and not the meaning everytime I reread Bleach. Thank you for making these videos and fleshing Bleach out in a way I could not conceive of despite being a fan of the series for 15 years. I guess I just wish I could see Kubo's vision the way you do. Great stuff I am looking forward to more videos! Thank you.

[@chiraghalpati3463]

Indeed the looks are the ones we remember more compared to the message/meaning that's just kubo's art being too good to have you think about anything else. Kubo also does not spoonfeed most of the things so even the obvious things are misunderstood or ignored because they were not given much time as you would expect or just mentioned once means we can forget much more easily compared to the things we see repeated on screen.

[@fantasywritertenten6618]

I've always thought that Toshiro was awesome. Though I cant remember when he became my favorite among the numerous characters of Bleach, and it has been a while since I have looked back on it, he is one of the few that I think about the most throughout the years. I love his bonds with Momo and Rangiku. (I love every single bond- platonic and familial- that Bleach is able to produce, it does such a great job. And the chapter between Hitsugaya and the grandmother just... I don't have words to describe how touched I was.) I have so much respect for this young Prodigy. There's so much respect between him and his lieutenant and the way you describe his relationship with Momo really proves that she is his heart. The way that things go down in the Soul Society around Aizens death and how he really launches himself into the investigation, she is his motivation. And I was so happy when I saw how they reunited after she woke up. (before things went completely sad and heart wrenching again.) Toshiro Hitsugaya is definitely one of the best characters of Bleach, and it is making me want to get back into the series again. Thank you for making this video to prove that :)

Shinji is such an underrated character bro. He's the only character next to Urahara who really worried Aizen. That's why Aizen made sure Shinji would get caught up in his hollowfication experiments so that he would either be killed or banished to the world of the living. Aizen knew that he wouldn't have been able to enact his plans in the way that he did with such efficiency if Shinji was still around. Shinji even says that the only reason he ever took Aizen as his lieutenant was because he knew that he wasn't to be trusted and he wanted to keep an eye on him. Now that's some crazy foresight right there!

How come Hitsugaya became so mature and serious? Having Isshin as a captain and Matsumoto as lieutenant took its toll. Jokes aside I think that despite his talents Hitsugaya became captain so early because of the incredible loses of captains and potential captains during the years before the main events of the story; the Visored, Urahara, Yoruichi and Isshin.

[@jasonmoukala8909]

This is false

[@justinkatz8866]

From the moment he was introduced to the end of Bleach Hitsugaya was and forever will be my favorite character in the anime/manga

[@bisexualichigo4227]

❄️Toushiro is one of the Best Bleach characters, no wonder his the most popular.❄️ My only problem with him, is that he rarely wins, you supposed to be a prodigy boi. But I supposed being a prodigy doesn’t exactly have to mean you must win.

[@gintokilearnedbankai5938]

actually he doesn't lose either tbf. And he does get a decent amount of wins throughout the series

[@Ronpesos12]

Nah that’s just kubo making him look like he’s weak when in reality he probably one of the more stronger captains

[@Ronpesos12]

The only thing ion like about his character is that they make his bankai look weak or like it ain’t shit or w.e

[@gintokilearnedbankai5938]

@@Ronpesos12 by the TYBW arc he's one of the strongest captains but before the timeskip he was one of the weaker captains mainly because he was really young and inexperienced.

[@Ronpesos12]

@@gintokilearnedbankai5938 I felt like he was middle class captain not weak captain as in kommura or soi fun or muyari more like byakaya boarderline

This vid make me love toshiro for the First Time (I'm in Bleach since 2009). Thank you

[@SPACECOWBOY705]

If this guy is gonna surpass shunsui in 100 years time... Then he is easily basically the Ice version of old man Yama... That's scary

[@alexandercarder2281]

I’ve learnt loads from this video thank you 🙏 Hitsuguya is a really smart little dude and I’ve always had a thing for ice powers ever since Sub Zero. It was a revelation to me that Momo was signed up to the soul society before Toshiro.

[@1wayin2waysout300]

Hitsugaya is 1 of my favorite captains. I have many reservations against many of the captains because I find their flaws to be too damaging for me to tolerate, but Hitaugaya was never 1 of those. His intuition to smell the fish rotting in the sink, so to speak, gave him admiration from me. Also I am curious about your thoughts on the parallels between him and Ichigo, since prodigy characters are often the MCs of Shonin stories, and especially since Ichigo is a prodigy in his own right.

[@allPodd]

Ichigo has an insane pedigree, which helps a lot. And he got personal coaching from ex-captains. I think Hitsugayas humble roots make him more interesting but he's not mc material.

[@TheYoungGeninSasuke]

My favorite character

[@whyteofficial]

Nice analysis for my favorite captain!

[@raymondbutlerll8279]

I enjoyed this vid really good take on hitsugaya and the relationship between him momo and aizen I'll like to see a renji character analysis next please😊

[@CyberSkullNova]

To be fair I think that every character has been asked to be analyzed since starting this, (also just realized after watching all of these I still havent subbed my bad)

[@mikerunitall6223]

I love your videos your like the geekdom101 of bleach you deserve more veiws.

[@mastermax2792]

Hitsugaya is my favorite character in all of bleach because of everything you mentioned he is under appreciated but aside from this i also support the hitsugaya and rangiku ship as they counter balance each other our very nicely

[@naufalariiif]

Now you mention it. I don't think Rukia is strong enough to be a Captain.

[@gintokilearnedbankai5938]

she is strong enough even during TYBW arc and she probably got better control of her bankai over 10 year timeskip.

[@Ronpesos12]

Yeah tbh ion even know why she got to be a captain in the first place jushiro was a character we didn’t even get to hold a bunch on

[@mickeymouse2424]

I would watch an entire anime series just about Hitsugaya.

[@Sara-cr8ut]

I really like toshiro as a character when I first saw bleach and toshiro appeared he immediately stood out to me his design is really cool and he quickly became my favourite character during soul society character and made me look forward to his next appearances and actions he really is my favourite character in bleach really enjoy him really loved your video

[@Alfareon]

Gin was the previous prodigy, again with silver hair.

[@turnerbrawley4715]

Another excellent video Zimran! Hitsugaya has such a FROSTY outlook on life and I know I ask a lot but could you do a video on Jiren from super I think he is a bit more complex than what people saw in him when he was first introduced in the ToP years ago when super aired.

[@jabsskywalker]

This was a great analysis! I learned so much, thank you!

[@FallenOne669]

I wish there was one scene in the manga or anime with an interaction between Isshin, Tōshiro and Rangiku.

[@chiraghalpati3463]

There was in the anything but the rain chapters i think.

[@FallenOne669]

@@chiraghalpati3463 True, but I'm talking specifically during the present-day storyline.

[@chiraghalpati3463]

@@FallenOne669 i did see that one coming, indeed i want to see that too it could be added in the last episode after the war when they are leaving to go back to the human world.

[@Snailiens]

maybe add ichigo to make it even more confusing

[@akumaking1]

That makes the shipping between Toshiro and Karin funnier

[@BreadApologist]

After seeing the bit where he realizes he stabbed Momo, I was really hoping he would have gotten a few good hits on Aizen via good ol fashioned rage boost. Sadly the captain did not pull a Gohan at that time.
