AIZEN VS YHWACH - Could Aizen DEFEAT Yhwach in the Final Battle? | Bleach TYBW Discussion 

Imagine if Ichigo, Renji, and Uryu never made it - could Aizen save the Bleach universe alone? Let me know your thoughts down below!

Aizens Bankai is the biggest variable here imo, so frustrating we have literally no clue what it could be. Aizen's Bankai augmented by the Hyogyoku could be something insane.

Yhwach: *claims to hate violence* Also Yhwach: *Attacks a man tied to a chair*

I hope that final battle has some major changes to it when it's shown in the anime. I think everyone would love to see Aizen's Bankai

Let’s face it guys. The Almighty is too broken for even Aizen to handle without help or plot armor.

You should do a video discussing whether or not Renji was even there at the final fight. After Aizen is removed from the battlefield he isn't seen again. Renji likely wouldn't even be able to hurt Yhwach at this point and Yhwach notes that Aizen wouldn't protect Renji. Aizen wouldn't do this, we even directly see him attack a shinigami previously in the arc. I suspect Renji never joined the fight against Yhwach, simply Kyoka suigetsu made an image of Renji in Yhwach's mind.

If he could've he would've

Remember that Ywach pierced Aizen’s body so he comes into contact with the KS core power which dispels the illusion. The same reason why Yama knew it was Aizen when he was pierced by the sword or why the illusion ended when Halli was hit by it. Therefore, it’s not unreasonable to assume that the same thing happened when Aizen was pierced by Ywach.

A couple of corrections: 1. The Kurohitsugi Aizen did on himself back in the Shinigami HQ wasn't full power since he didn't do the incantations. 2. Aizen does regenerate. The last chapter of Bleach showed Aizen with all his injuries gone. And although this isn't really a correction but rather a speculation, I'd like to think what caused KS to deactivate was Yhwach physically touching Aizen. It's pretty much known that Aizen fused with his zanpakuto and since he already used KS on Yhwach before off of a look, then it's safe to assume the weakness of KS is also essentially imbedded into Aizen as well. If touching the zanpakuto before makes one immune to the illusions, then perhaps touching Aizen's current form would be the same.

With the way the anime handled the Yamamoto versus Fake Juha battle. I hope Aizen versus Juha gets a full or at least sizeable portion of the episode dedicated to it.

I'd say maybe given Aizen is immortal and his drive to stand upon the heavens means he'd go all out. He sees an obstacle as a challenge to his godhood.

I might be wrong here but I assumed that Kyouka Suigetsu's general weakness was the same as Tousen's, that anyone directly touching the blade could see through its effects. That's why his deception is always revealed when he retaliates and cuts someone, because in that moment he's touched them with his blade. It makes sense that when Yamamoto was stabbed by him, and Aizen asked how he knew he was real, Yama said "I could never mistake this riatsu in my gut" (something like that). Based on that observation, Gin made sure to touch Kyouka Suigetsu before activating his own Bankai when he attacked Aizen in the real Kurakura Town... Given that Aizen kinda fused with Kyouka Suigetsu and his shown both using and not using a physical blade against Ywach, and puts Ywach under Kyouka Suigetsu without the physical blade in Muken, I'd assumed that Kyoka Suigetsu's weakness transfered to his whole body. Ywach could finally see through the illusion because he put his hand through Aizen's chest, therefore touching Kyouka Sugeitsu. Up until that point, Aizen had been foghting with Kido and I dont think they made physical contact... When Ywach says Kyouka Suigetsu was undone, that may have been either because he had literally punched through it or because he technically died. I could be entirely wrong here (maybe my memory is inaccurate) but that's always how i interpreted that fight.

A couple of thoughts about this prompt. Firstly, I think maybe because Yhwach was touching Aizen, it counts as Kyoka Suigetsu's weakness. It's speculation of course, but Aizen did fuse with his blade so perhaps grabbing Aizen now removes the illusion. Second, I think if push came to shove, and with Aizen being the last bastion, the Hogyoku would wake up to make Aizen evolve again if Aizen really wished to protect his Soul Society, but more refined possibly. Maybe it would be where Aizen's beyond bankai form comes in lol.

Gin explained perfectly why the illusion drops when Aizen attacks. You're in contact with his blade and the effects are dispelled when in contact with Kyoka Suigetdu

The reason why Aizen shikai ended in this particular moment is because Gin Ichimaru said it himself. If you touch kyoka suigetsu you aren’t effected by it. Aizen literally fused with his sword. So if you touch him the effect fades. Yhwach was touching him continuously while he was impaled. That’s my theory.

If you slightly alter the question to "Could Aizen hold him off long enough, alone, for Uryu to get there and use the Stillsilver Arrow?", I think the answer is yes, he would have delayed at first and used mind games while thinking of an initial plan. Uryu would show up soon enough, and they would ewin it.

Aizen’s the only character that you cannot be that mad about somebody saying “we didn’t see him going all out, so we do not know.”, he never used his bankai, he lost because apparently he wanted to lose according to Ichigo, he was not thinking properly, he was hardly even thinking logically, he was acting more like Kenpachi. Also he can adapt, and make it so his power can surpass his foes. I could actually see him killing or absorbing Yhwach, and possibly gaining his brave souls 6th anniversary design.

21:14 you mentioning the vengeful souls of the quincies Yhwach has killed makes me hope that when the anime gets to it, we get see the spirits of all the quincies Yhwach turned his back on showing up and visually pulling him down. It'd be nice to see Misaki and Katagiri show up one last time to help out their sons.

This has become my favorite series of yours! Time for a heavyweight hypothetical. Komamura vs Kensei!

Its definitely an interesting question, and one worth debating Tommo!

I think I may know why the illusion is broken. As you mentioned the illusion is broken on Halibel and Hitsuguya as well, and the reason IS because they are getting hit. Remember the weakness of his Zanpakto is that, when someone is touching it they can’t be effected. So even when someone is slashed with it, technically they are in contact with his sword so the illusion will be broken. And after Aizen became a butterfly his Zanpakto fused with him if I remember correctly. So when Uha stabbed him with his arm he is in contact with the Zanpakto in a way so the illusion is worn off.

i was under the impression that Aizen still had the majority of his power "Sealed". Wasn't that what the eye patch and parts of his clothing (like the straps on his arms, ect.) were supposed to symbolize? i always thought the reason Aizen wasnt able to beat Ywach with just his spiritual pressure alone was because of that, and that was the real reason why Ywach made him a special threat because of his spiritual pressure.

Mr. Tommooooo, very nice analysis!!!!!

An Aizen video will always get a thanks from me. As for the illusion being broken after Aizen gets stabbed, maybe it’s because the same rule still applies that if you’re touching his zanpakuto it’s power stops working on you. And since him and his zanpakuto are one now, that means touching him. Unfortunately I think you’re right that he would probably lose to Ywach in a 1v1 lol, but I choose to believe that his Bankai was his real Ace card that he never had to use. Maybe it’s something like a “Shatter” ability like what you said in your Aizens bankai theories video. I could totally see him holding up his sword and saying “Bankai… now Revolt, Kyoka Suigetsu” giving him the power to shatter any ability that tries to assert control over him. Like Ywachs almighty power to choose his future. That would also play into Aizens character of not accepting anyone ruling over him or choosing his future.

Aizen is probably one of the best villians in all anime, but Yuha's power will destroy Aizen, no debateble

I love Aizen Sosuke. “Good evening, Espada. There has been an enemy attack. But first…Let us brew some tea.” ― Aizen ❤ Thank you for every Bleach Video MrTommo, You are the best 💜

Nice video man

Love the vids

I think it's worth mentioning that even without the chair, Aizen is still under a bunch of bindings. Shunsui only unlocked 3 of the... like 20 seals, if the floor in chapter 617 is all of them. Even Aizen's _clothes_ were built to bind his reiatsu. We're still seeing a fairly restricted Aizen during his fight with Bachi.

It's hard to say. Aizen's Shikai alone is able to stand against literal omniscient powers. If his Shikai is that strong, just what the hell is Aizen's Bankai?

Great vid but without Aiken’s bankai, without those seals taken off. And in the actual situation where its just Aizen (he doesnt sense ichigo arriving) so, he in his own mind, would know he has to stop yhwach. Therefore his will would change, which would likely cause a different response from the hogyoku, we can never know. Did I mention Aizen has a bankai? An aizen stalling, with a hogyoku not sensing Aizen himself needing to do the entire killing by himself, knowing Kubo wasn’t going to make Aizen’s bankai appear so its as if he doesnt have one IS DIFFERENT to what AIzen could have theoretically done completely unbound. Great vid

Could you do a video on the Valley Of Screams? I'd be interested to have the fullbringers interaction with it explained and to also have the differences in it between the memories of nobody and the manga as well.

You know I was thinking Ichigo sisters have the exact same power is that he does they just need to unlock it like how rukeya unblock Ichigo powers

Unless Aizen’s Bankai is too become Tite Kubo, the Almighty Rules All. Even if some possibilities are false because of Aizen, Bach sees all possibilities as grains of sand. Ichigo’s enemies each presented a part of Ichigo’s history. Aizen - Controller of the Past Ginjou - Controller of the Present Bach - Controller of the Future Unless ALL possible Outcomes lead to Bach’s Defeat. Aizen will lose to Bach and since both are immortal, both will just eventually rejuvenate.

Your videos butter My biscuits thank you

I'd like to see more of these what if series? I have a suggestion, during the Fake Karakura town arc, when Shinji charged at Aizen and was almost killed by Tousen only to be blocked by Kaumaura, what if he was not blocked and we got to see Hirako Shinji vs Kaname Tousen? It would be interesting fight, that ultimately I think tousen would take as most of Shinji's abilities would not work on a blind Tousen unless he can drive him to his final release.

Unfortunately nothing except the stillsilver arrow can stop Yhwach at this point. Aizen could tag team with Urahara, Kisuke, Zaraki, Ichiho, Kyoraku, Renji; the list goes on, and nothing would change. Yhwach can simply revive himself from another timeline. That is how insanely broken his power is. Only through the stillsilver arrow does The Almighty stop working for a brief moment. That is the only window of opportunity where he can be killed.

I thought the answer was pretty clear at the end: No.

I think it goes back to what gin said about touching kyoka suigetsu. Once you touch the blade maybe the illusion ends in the same way that gin mentioned.

So, I want this video of yhwach vs all war potentials.

I really like the notion of Aizen deactivating his shikai on purpose after thinking they had won. It would say a lot about him as a character. Not only that he was overconfident. But it also kinda shows trust towards Ichigo in that he dropped all illusions and isn’t trying to pull anything funny. Which would be huge for Aizen bc pulling one over on people is literally his whole deal.

I definitely think Aizen was the best matchup for Yhwach, but The Almighty is just WAY too broken. Would’ve been nice if Aizen went Bankai or confirmed that Kyoka Suigetsu was in fact his bankai though 😢

I hope their battle is extended purely for the chance of them bantering and trying to one-up each other.

Before investing this 22 minutes into hearing the great Tommo's opinion(s), my answer is "DEFINITELY yes" 😂 Going with what we definitively know to flesh out my "yes": the "completely" sealed Aizen (who's had several extra seals added on top of the ones Kisuke used to initially seal him) is stronger than where he left off prior to getting sealed by Kisuke. The ✌🏾base✌🏾Juhabach that one shot Yamamoto was toyed with by "completely" sealed Aizen to where he (Juhabach) not only had his perception of time distorted, but every other Sternritter (who all hold a portion of Juhabach's soul😉) was effected along with him. Juhabach had not only performed Auschwalen on his super soldiers, but also absorbed the Soul King, and awakened his Almighty prior to the final Auschwalen when he met Aizen again but on the battlefield; the only thing since their initial meeting that changed for Aizen was he'd had three of his multiple seals removed them he and and his chair brought outside by Kyoraku so that he could use his (Aizen's) reiatsu to protect what was left of Seireitei. While the real/physical mostly sealed Aizen's doing this, ✌🏾he✌🏾 also using a portion of his reiatsu, assaults the very real Juhabach who's awakened his Almighty AND absorbed the core essence of the Soul King. In this fight Juhabach The Almighty saw literally everything EXCEPT how a fight with Aizen would go: after he'd served ✌🏾Aizen's✌🏾 arm and punctured ✌🏾Aizen's✌🏾 chest, ✌🏾Aizen's✌🏾 response to this was "So you think you're fighting Ichigo, interesting..." because the real/physical Aizen was still sealed to that chair. The real Aizen was STILL literally gathering information and essentially toying with even this Juhabach; he was only biding time until the real Ichigo showed with the help of Tsukishima (who's Book Of The End is broken AF in itself) and Uryuu's special Quincy lore arrow. In (my) conclusion (aka a brief summary), Aizen would cake walk Juhabach. Outside what I used to "build the case", when Kyoraku initially went to Aizen and released the one seal, Aizen got up and walked to him in a manner so realistic that he was shocked even though he knew the physical Aizen was still strapped to that chair. The shock was the reality that "We don't have to unleash Aizen, we can just remove a couple more seals and use Aizen's per to end this while still keeping Aizen himself in check" along with "Aizen is still the greatest risk to Seireitei". Based off removing that one seal and having firsthand experience with what the Quincy are doing outside, Kyoraku was able to gage that if he unleashed Aizen like he planned, it was ultimately over, so he gaged and only released THREE of Aizen's many seals before bringing him outside, and he chose wisely; because if he would've just removed one more seal Aizen would've mopped the floor with his reiatsu manipulations alone before using it to research and undo the rest of the seals and actually freeing himself completely. So the way a grown-up sees "Aizen vs Juhabach: Who Wins" is Aizen wins with just one out of however extra seals added on were, release one more seal and it's over for sure even considering Almighty Soul King Juhabach was fighting a figment of Aizen's imagination via his Zanpaktou.........vs.........what current modern day folk are calling "Horn of Salvation" Ichigo after being blessed with Zero Squad training, after being blessed with coming across Tsukishima using Book Of The End on him, after being blessed Uryuu gaining a shift and using it with his father's hidden lore/history to create a weapon before the schrift being removed, and all that coming together to defeat Juhabach. If Aizen wasn't there experimenting and playing with him to give them time to come physically assault him, that shit was over; Almighty Soul King Juhabach was LITERALLY fighting air believing it was Ichigo and Renji when it was Aizen still strapped to a chair playing with his Almighty Soul King head the entire time. So if the question is "Can Aizen win?" the only other answer besides "Duh" is "WHICH Aizen; Aizen with 3 seals removed, Aizen with a fourth removed, or fully released Aizen?"................and the answer's STILL "Duh" 😂😂😂😂

Yall already know kubo is gonna go crazy with the final battle of the TYBW in the bleach anime, who knows what he may add, personally i hope we see both aizens bankai and ichigo's bankai fleshed out

Probably not, but I would like to believe he could somehow.

yup mr tommo big speculation

I had always thought of it another way, Gin tells us that the only way to tell if you're under the effect or not, is touching Aizen's blade, and since he'd absorbed his zanpalto then touching him should still show you the truth, at least that was my thought, and I thought Urahara got the hogyoku out of Aizen when the sealing spell he put on him went into affect. Maybe that was anime only but i could swear there was a scene of him holding it after that weird thorned cross was there

I think he could if the hogyoku were to reactivate and began transcending Aizen further once again.

In my opinion, Aizen sensed ichigo’s arrival therefore stopping for a moment for what seems as the window he created for ichigo to getsuga tenshou yhwach. After that, they both thought the battle Is over but suddenly yhwach eliminated the big threat of Aizen by absorbing him. If they knew it wasn’t over, there might have been a chance where AiEn would actually have to resort to using his bankai. Just a speculation on my part seeing that Aizen never truly reveals all his cards at once and does so only when absolutely necessary, it’s in his character and his bankai is supposedly his last resort in this situation given that yhwach revived without absorbing Aizen at that very moment.

I’m sure someone said this already but god I can’t wait to see this animated

I really also wish to see a fight between Aizen and Jugram, cause then their battle would be awesome

Why Yhwach did not see the arrow coming is still a mystery to us all.

One more speculation: if Aizen, without using bankai could fooled Yhwach, maybe with a bankai he could fool his All Mighty.

14:40 it probably is breaking the illusion since the weakness of Kiyoka Suigetsu is that its effect is cancelled when u touch its blade like gin did, meaning if Aizen cuts you, you would be touching his blade, cancelling the effect.

The chair has such a big place in the Bleach fandom lol

I think Aizen was able to easily win each time since the beginning of the story but needed to make sure than the Hell arc and Burn the witch stories happen for his ultimate goal

Gut reaction is saying no. Almighty is just so fucking busted that even someone like Aizen would get overwhelmed. He also didn’t have time to plan or come up with something that could possibly temporarily stop that power like the silver arrow and Uryu. Overall I do hope they flush out that fight more. Seeing him do 3-4 cool things then just get eaten and removed from the story till the end sort of sucked. He won’t win but he’d be a problem

We all knew the answer already, but still an enjoyable video

This video creates and interesting question for me. IF Aizen was the last line of defense for soul society, what kind of ability would Kubo create for Aizen in order to rival the power of "Almighty" in order to make it an epic and satisfying final battle

Well we know that when it had come to Aizen’s zanpakuto if you placed your hand on it you could not be affected by it’s illusions. Maybe any form of contact, like being slashed by it could do the same. Plus Aizen and his zanpakuto are pretty much one after his battle with Ichigo. Impaling him may have a similar effect then.

Yhwach with the Sk+almighty+yama's bankai,also with multiple broken shrifts, it's just too much

He would need the hogyoku to do something we haven’t seen before like grant him a new (broken) ability but what could be more broken than rewriting the future? (Respira imo)

I think the thing is different, I don't remember exactly where but I remember that Aizen has been stated to be able to evolve to the point of transcending everything and standing at the same levels of the soul king, If he happened to gain such power while fighting Yhwach then probably not even "the almighty" would have been of help against him

Yhwach’s first attempt to kill Aizen resulted in him being accidentally freeing Aizen from the chair. Yhwach’s second attempt just resulted in KS being used on the Almighty. Yhwach’s 3rd attempt managed to temporarily immobilize Aizen the same way Ichigo did with the final Getsuga Tensho…..but as we all saw…Aizen came back Like he always does. At his strongest state he couldn’t permanently kill Aizen. Eventually Aizen would evolve to a state stronger than Yhwach. Might take a while…but Aizen is a patient man that doesn’t mind waiting for his plans to work out. Regardless…let’s not forget that KS was strong enough to do 2 things to the almighty: 1)Affect the Almighty’s sight of the future 2) Tricking Yhwach’s Almighty into thinking it’s fighting 3 people when it’s just 1 person.

The illusion never ended until after the real ichigo arrived. Juha was still seeing ichigo even as Ichigo ran Juha through. It was just Kubos way of revealing to us the readers that it was really Aizen the whole time so we wouldnt be confused. Because some readers were actually still confused after the fact. Some readers still believed the Renji and Ichigo were there fighting alongside Aizen and didn't even catch on weeks after the manga chapter. Juha was still seeing Aizen up until Ichigo ran him through. Or perhaps the whole touching Kyoka Sueigetsu started to reveal the true Aizen since they were touching each other. Although Juha wasn't touching the blade, Aizen is fused with his zanpakuto so maybe touching him was enough to slowly reveal the true auzen.

Aizen's illusions disappear because when you come into contact with Kyouka Suigetsu, the illusion dissipates. Gin Ichimaru tells us this before it can be activated, however. But it's just a reasonable assumption that coming into contact with the blade breaks the illusion.

I remember one of the biggest fan theories about Aizen in this arc is about his Zanpakuto and where did it go? Aizen was still able to use its shikai effect from it and it was strong enough to effect Yhwach, people were always saying he perfectly merged with his zanpakuto and yadda yadda but he is one of the few characters we never see a bankai from so many would say in this senario sort of thing he would in turn use it in tandem with the hogyoku and put up a decent fight. The thing about an unknown power or an unused skill/ability in a series it quickly becomes headcanon and derails haha. To become a captain it must be known that you can use bankai is the thing so...yeah maybe kubo forgot it was a possibility for aizen which I oddly believe lol

I wonder how strong Aizen would be if all his seals were taken off

I don’t think so. The Aizen we see fight Yhwach was at his full power using everything at his disposal and he still couldn’t even touch Yhwach. Because of the power of the SK enhanced Almighty, even if there was a modicum of chance that Aizen could be victorious, all Yhwach would have to do would be to rewrite the future. I know alot of hardcore Aizen fans always mention the hogyoku and evolution, but not only did he NOT evolve in this fight against the strongest person he’s ever fought, but he got overwhelmed and was eventually knocked unconscious due to the assimilating process. This matchup is the unstoppable force vs the immovable obstacle through and through. Aizen and Ichigo were basically fighting God and were losing handily until the still silver was involved.

When an unstoppable force meets an immovable object.

Hey bro,i have an idea for next vid,who would win,Ichibei or Aizen?

Easily. Aizen is the definition of OP.

No, it was always going to have to be a group effort to take Yhwach down. Aizen is definitely powerful enough to still scrap with and give Yhwach the runaround which is a feat in and of itself compared to how easily endgame Yhwach stomps anything and everything except the original Soul King, but just like Ichigo couldn’t do it own his own, neither could Aizen. Hence why he stalled long enough for Ichigo to land that critical blow… before the mfer REWROTE HIS OWN DEATH!

I think the illusion ends WITHOUT Aizen wanting it to end because it is how his power works now, after being fused with his Zanpaktou. Remember how Gin said the only way to not be under Kyoka Suigetsu's hypnosis is by touching the blade? Well, he fused with his blade, and that fusion was never undone. His blade may have "disappeared" but where did it "reappear" from if he had been tied up to the chair? It has to be because he is fused and can make it appear whenever. This would also be consistent with the earlier pre-Hyogoku battles, like when he stabs Harribel from behind and she then can see he is behind and not in front.

14:45 I think I’ve got the answer! The weakness of kyokasuigetsu is touching it as you can’t go into absolute hypnosis while doing so. That’s why the illusion shatters every time someone is being stabbed. So now that Aizen has fused with his zanpakutto touching Aizen is the equivalent of touching the blade so the illusion shatters again

Considering Aizen's default expression is the Light Skin stare, yes I think he could handily defeat Yhwach...and the female Sternritter.

Great video but i think there is still one more question that needs answered... Does the hogyoku have the will / want to survive? though it rejected Aizen their souls are still intertwined. If the hogyoku decides to not help Aizen (more than just healing) then I have no doubt that Yhwach could eventually destroy it. It has a will of its own and if it wants to survive It has to evolve Aizen to a level that is able to kill Yhwach. I have a feeling that even Aizen suspected this could be a possibility which is why he confronted Yhwach the way he did.

Bleach is just so different and so perfectly plotted no other anime / movie / series hits like this

Even gin said yes kyoka suigetsu is a terrifying power no doubt but that's not why all the espadas fear and respect aizen, they fear and respect him because of his overwhelming power and speed, if it was just for his shikai they wouldn't respect him so much but even aizen knows his shikai alone wouldn't be enough to take over the world he needed the hokyugou to actually get more power too to fight people like yama and ichibe those two alone would be enough to earase aizen if didn't get the hokyugou

I believe aizen would defeat ywach. Aizen, just like with everyone else he fought, was playing with ywach, testing his power just as Mayuri pointed out when he restricted his power. Plus with the hogyoku aizen has the potential to evolve again, endlessly, I doubt ywach can. Plus aizen still has his bankai, I doubt aizen was losing power and strength, he was too arrogant to take ywach seriously. Ywach is nothing special without the almighty, without it ywach would get bodied, aizen without his zanpoktou bodied the entire gotei 13 by himself.

I think Kyoka suigetsu releases the illusion because since touching the zanpakuto is the only way to break the illusion according to what Gin said and since Kyoka suigetsu is now a part of Aizens body I think , would make sense that piercing Aizen would count as touching Kyoka suigetsu

Gin explained the only way to get around Aizen’s total hypnosis is to be in physical contact with his blade, so it would make since that once he strikes someone with it the illusion would dissipate .

Nah. We already saw that with Aizen helping Ichigo get a killing blow it STILL didn't work. The Almighty makes it so YH just says NO to being defeated. Thats why PLOT ARROW was needed. Aizen stands no chance alone. He would end up getting beaten down like he did against Ichigo before.

Didn’t Yhwach confirm the hogyoku still keeps Aizen “immortal” in the anime (which is canon because of Kubo’s influence)?

Yuwhabach is the dnd guy that keeps changing what he actually meant to do when his character dies lol!

Short answer, no. Long answer, NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

What if Yhwach changed a future in which he saw Aizen say..........."Bankai". New video idea, your welcome.

Aizen would literally wear him down until he died. With the hogi alone and aizens will to be more powerful than ywach would decide this battle. I think people forget that he has the hogi. He can literally become more powerful with his will alone.

Aizen's "Come at me Bro" pose still cracks me up. I'm hardpressed to think what he could've done exactly since the Stihl Silver arrow was the only thing that seem to have any real effect on Yhwach but the thing is Aizen's black outfit is a bunch of seals right? So those held him back from destroying the Chair and in the fight itself? and also his bankai would be factor imo RIP Chair Sama

This just makes me want to see Aizen pull off an Ultrafragor on Yhwach the same way Ichigo did with a Getsuga.

I mean, he uses plans to beat people almost as often as he uses his sword, so... I guess in a way, he did beat Yhwach? lol The real question is whether Ichigo could have beaten Yhwach without Aizen.

I think the Hogyoku would definitely resurrect Aizen, potentially giving him another crazy transformation. While it may be "dormant" or something following Deicide & his time in Muken, Aizen is still stronger than he was during Deicide. If the fight went down in that way I absolutely think it would become active and start doing the shenanigans we're used to, otherwise when it "rejected" him after Mugetsu it would have popped out of his chest or something right? Here's a basic analogy I thought up in like 2 minutes: From the Hogyoku's perspective, let's say base Aizen was a Dodge Challenger SRT-8/Scat Pack/whatever. It transformed him into a Hellcat and later a Demon, but after his defeat he reverted to a Hellcat Redeye. But it could theoretically turn him into a Demon 170 in this situation. For context, a Hellcat is rated 707hp, Redeye is 797hp, Demon is 808 (I think, and also specialized for drag racing), and the Demon 170 is something like 1025hp? and is strictly a factory drag car.

the thing about aizens bankai is that the potential is limitless. it could nullify all power exept his own, it could destroy everything in a instant, it could make everything happen within a instant, hell, it could prolly do all 3 and use every single shikai, bankai, ressurecion, schrift, and voltstanding ability or it could just not be correlated to his shikai at all we prolly WILL NEVER KNOW WHAT HIS BANKAI DOES

I know this comment is a little late but I think making a video on BBS Transcended Aizen vs SK absorbed Yhwach would be a pretty fun topic despite the limited information we have on Aizen's form.

There's another factor to bring in and thats the hogyuku itself. Like you said, Aizen's immortality stems from the hogyuku, and that was formed from the fragments of the soul king (former), and since Yhwach was the new soul king, he could try to assimilate the hogyuku into himself, or the hogyuku itself might recognize Yhwach as it's new master through his sheer power alone

The answer depends on if the Hogyoku can still push Aizen beyond his current power level and how insane his bankai is.

Also, i think people forget that Aizen was still partially sealed here. His whole outfit is part of the whole sealing process for him. Nothing is wrong with his eye. My speculation is that the evolving qualities of the hougyoku were sealed at this time. It makes sense that Urahara and the soul society would want to target that aspect of the hougyoku if they couldn't do anything about his body or the hougyoku itself.

we need a shuttztafel video

Not a chance in HELL. Aizen couldn’t even IMAGINE being able to win that battle even if he had Gremmy’s ability.
