THE DAY ICHIGO UNLOCKED FULL POWER | Ichigo’s TRUE SHIKAI Explained | BLEACH Breakdown 

Day 1 of telling dbzimran that his uploads are appreciated.❤

'Everything but the rain' arc in particular was one of the biggest reason I was able to get up & move forward. This arc turned me from a Suicidal kid to a work horse. I fell in love with Ichigo after this.

Zangetsu is sort of like Ichigo's wild and dark side that he refused to even acknowledge for the longest time up until the Dangai arc where he finally embraces this side of him after supressing it for too long. This final trial made him realize his full potential utilizing his will to protect as well as his acceptance that he too has a wild and violent and possibly destructive side. This narrative all fits well into Jung's concept of the Shadow imo.

It will be an absolute banger when this makes its debut in the anime, thus helping Ichigo along in being the savior of the worlds.

This is honestly my favorite of Ichigo's forms and blades. His fight with the 8 Sternritter was among my favorite for just how well it demonstrated his new Shikai.

Turns out that byakuya’s suspicion about ichigo’s false bankai was true, no wonder why he felt something different about it and said “that move is not bankai” but rather similar to uryu’s hirenkyaku when ichigo went so fast at him with blade pointed on byakuya’s thoat. I think that false bankai was similar to uryu’s technique, and also his outfit is similar to old man zangetsu after transforming. His uniqueness is just amazing, he is a a proud soul reaper with quincy powers and protects like a badass hollow. There’s also no wonder why he was trained by old man zangetsu not for achieving his true powers but to build his strength, stamina, endurance, and focus to enhance his fighting ability. I can’t imagine how powerful he was already without using his true powers. Has a very strong inner hollow powers, and a quincy, and even much more powerful when combined together, it’s like uryu’s ability hirenkyaku(if ichigo uses it) enhanced by hollowfication plus his soul reaper powers is just OP in the 1st place. Man! I wonder if he uses flash step, hirenkyaku, and sonido at the same time while in his true bankai form! LOL, dude has so many options and so OP😂😂 not to mention his fullbring powers. It’s just funny that he didn’t use bankai until now and defeated top espadas without using true powers, I wonder if aizen knew that it was a false bankai ichigo was using this whole time. I’m glad I haven’t read the manga otherwise, it would be boring because it’s like watching the anime just to see the difference between manga and anime, watching anime is more interesting when you haven’t read the manga.

Zangetsu (not old man ywach) really did mean every word when he was controlling his hollow when he said”how can u get close to your zanpakto when u only know its name and when he said i am zangetsu” he just wanted ichigo to live and achieve his goals but accept himself its like ichigo was ashamed of him and he just wanted to be noticed by the person who is him i love the foreshadowing kubo did and how it was executed it was beautiful in the anime and the manga This is why bleach has become my favorite series while kubo isnt perfect he thinks things out other mangaka just come up with as the manga goes along while he def did this but u can see alot of things was set up for later and actually is way deeper than u may presume Like simple things as ichigo stealing all rukias powers make sense because u find out he is part quincy so he can dominate reishi. its truly mind blowing how kubo made ichigo so relatable and made him so different from other shonen characters he feels so unique and his blades make him more unique as he now the 3rd shinigami to have dual swords overall ichigo is him and i love that bleach is finally seen fore it’s amazingness it always had

Probably my favorite form of Ichigo alongside Dangai.

Its good to hear your soothing and informative voice @DBZimran. I really love bleach and their characters stories.

I love the analogy that each of Ichigo's transformations are "stepping stones" in his character. I grew up with Bleach, literally starting Bleach at Ichigo's age. I can comfortably say that in my 20s when Bleach ended I did not understand Ichigo's many transformations. But as I've aged and matured, I can clearly see that each transformation came at a critical moment in his character development and that each of those stages are a part of every person's development too. Bleach is incredibly introspective and is no surprise when a character understands a hidden part of their "soul" it directly translates to a boost in power. This is reflected in personal development. What is the first step in personal growth? Know thyself. Only then can you grow and overcome the lies you tell yourself that stunt and hold you back. Moving briefly to Ichigo's true bankai's ability - it's the power to cut fate itself. It's been brought up that in the first chapter's poem about Ichigo he wants the ability to cut fate because it is heartbreaking to see the injustice in the world and just chalk it up to "fate" - meaning you don't have the power to protect and save someone. How does this translate to Bleach's power system? His Bankai cuts hack abilities. That is why Juha Bach broke it before he could use it. Ichigo's shikai - using the full abilities of all the major powers in the Bleach universe (Shinigami, Quincy, Fullbring, and Hollow) Ichigo's bankai - combining all those powers into one blade that can cut through anything including "fate". It is the ultimate negator housed in a blade. EDIT: After thinking about it, I don't think the bankai is a true negator otherwise the quicksilver arrow would be redundant and Juha would not have been able to reverse his death with the Almighty. I think it is a blade that can pretty much kill anything in the Bleach universe though hoping the theorized "cut fate" foreshadowing is made more tangible in the anime.

I think I’ve watched almost all of your videos in the past week, since CR removed bleach your channel has been the best prep for TYBW! Thank you 🙏🏻

I love your videos. Watching your channel has definitely impacted my view of this series for the better. I appreciate what you bro

I really love your channel man. You do such a good job, that your channel has become my defacto Bleach channel

Thanks DBZImran! Appreciate all the work you put in. Excellent coverage! Cheers! 🍻🍻🍻

Subscribed!! I haven’t watched bleach since the middle of the fullbringer arc. Your videos most definitely caught me up to speed.

Appreciate your in-depth explanations

THIS KIND OF VID IS WHAT I NEEDED

Thanks for explaining !! Awesome.

Amazing video like Always 💖

The Blade Is Me is one of my fav chapters that i've read so many time and this is just my headcanon but i hope when this scene 0:30 happens in the anime White gets a line saying "Looks like you finally realized it well then, farewell...King" then he disappears.

Can't wait to see this form animated in the tybw

My theory on Ichigo is he never was a shinigami at the first place. His power which derive from white hollow and yhwach's quincy soul mimic Isshin's Engetsu. Hence, the name Zangetsu. But later during division 0 he gain his true shinigami power, so with his true shikai and bankai.

I love the true shikai design and hope it gets more screen time in the anime. I was a bit disappointed when I saw the Zanpakuto revert to it's og design in the Hell One Shot. I know Kubo already said Ichigo can switch back and forth between those forms, but it still sucks that we wont see him carry those two in his base form.

tnx dude almost stopt watching the anime, this def helps keeping the interest in it

His quincy powers are now a part of his shinigami powers. The smaller blade represents his quincy/shinigami powers. Getsuga Tensho is a shinigami technique. I think a lot of people miss the fact that after Ichigo accepted OMZ as Zangetsu, his quincy powers merged with his shinigami powers.

Thanks dbzimran

It would be cool if in true bankai mode he would still have 2 weapons. Maybe his hollow/shinigami blade turns into a thinner sword while the quincy sword turns into an crossbow.

Love the content

The only thing I don't get about the Kurosaki siblings is, did White just get inherited by Ichigo? Karin and Yuzu are still both Soul Reaper and Quincy just like their brother, but I don't know if the hollow would transfer to them as well. Karin obviously has some power, and it's a shame the girls never get much of a spotlight.

Im glad he has all stages now. The big blade to start then the two for his shikai then his bankai

I got into Bleach in my late teens and it became a guilty pleasure of mine. Not the highest quality show, but it certainly does filled my desire for epic hero battles... I stopped reading the manga shortly after (or maybe even just as) the two bladed form was showcased because, well, I caught up with the release schedule and there wasn't anything more to be read 😅 I decided to take a break and wait for more content to be released and somehow I never returned back to it. I don't even know how much content there is after that, I only vaguely remember the Quincy invasion of Soul Palace, and that's only because I just read up on the synopsis...

I was surprised but seeing his two spirits looking down at Ichigo when holding those blades I "Oh that make sense! He has both of them by his side now!"

Please 🙏 make video analysis on Tsukishima

The opening already foreshadowed Ichigo's double swords. I'm still a fan of the traditional fight with just one long katana

YES BLEACH VIDEO!!

I enjoyed this anime! Plan on owing it at some point!

I can’t wait to see his true shikai in the tybw anime😭😭😭it’s gonna be sooo cool

One thing that is so important about Ichigos true shikai is that its dual blade which so far only Jushiro and Shunsui had

The Legendary Six Heroes: 1.Naruto Uzumaki(Six Paths Sage Mode and Baryon Mode) 2.Izuku Midoriya(8 One For All Quirks and 100% Full Cowl) 3.Asta(All Magic Grimoires and All Forms) 4.Ichigo Kurosaki(All Forms and All Zanpakuto) 5.Raiden Shogun/Ei 6.Raiden Mei

Man cant wait to see this form in anime 🔥🔥

funny how the only 2 characters that used the Tenshintai have incompleted Zanpakutou/Bankai

Make a video on Shinji's Bankai

does that mean ichigo’s base zanpakto is his old shikai since in the he’ll chapters we still see that zanpakto

FINALLLY!!!!! Somebody actually explained all my questions in the simplest form. I have a full grasp of Ichigo powers now. The writer of the manga and anime Bleach doesn't explains Ichigo powers well {At least for me}.

Anyone up for todays fight against Quilge? I’m hyped fr!

My favorite anituber

i always imagined ichigo using more combinations like hierro and blut vene against yhwach kinda like gran ray getsuga

i wish they didnt make it constant release cuz the one guy said that maybe constant release don't exist at all after watching kenpachi use his real shikai

I have a feeling the reason his sword goes back to the original form is due to his now having enough control to seal his blade instead of it always being in shikai

His shikai is whatever Kubo wants him to have.

I really hope that Netflix can get this latest Bleach anime series. Ichigo latest form truly sick.

Sometimes you can give a hero so much that they end up with so little.

Getsuga jujisho is the only thing i want to see from his true shikai form

It just unreal that these beautiful panels will be gorgeouslyr animated 🤧

The part where you said the smaller blade is only his Quincy power is wrong. Zangetsu's ability is Getsuga Tenshou and a blade without Ichigo's Shinigami powers cannot use it, as Tsikishima commented that Ichigo's Shinigami powers must be merged with his Fullbring powers after he used it. Therefore, *both* blades have Ichigo's Shinigami powers imprinted on them.

I understood everything once I found out his mom had abilities as well

the shimigami and hollow formed his real blade, his other blade is really just his quincy powers manifest as an blade/sheath

He's supposed to be like this ultimate being yet by the end of the series it's kind of up in the air as to what power is he still has and doesn't have imo

The problem the writer has is that a zonpakto pummel can have a soul move on and ichigo has used his pummel for this purpose. Meaning it was a zonpakto not a false sword but I bet the writer forgot that. Quincy powers when used to kill a hallow or release a spirit kill it.

I think you should make a video about the most powerful version of Ichigo. Who is stronger: Dangai Ichigo, or true-shikai Ichigo?

if this gets animated for tybw it's gon get wicked

Actually, two blades are a sheath and a sword of sealed Zangetsu, according to Mr. Kubo himself. His Shikai is not what Oetsu Nimaiya forged, but the blade that struck down Yhwach, emerged from his broken bankai. The forms of Ichigo's Zanpakuto Zangetsu are: 1st: Two Blades, which is his base form, and true appearance of the blade we have seen in Substitute Shinigami ark all those years ago. 2nd: True Zangetsu - A classic Ichigo's Shikai with which he went through entire series and caused Yhwach's demise as he or rather Haschwalt envisioned via The Allmighty. And of corse, as Mr.Kubo stated, Ichigo can freely choose whether to use dual wielding in battle, or his Shikai as any shinigami can as well. 3rd: Tensa Zangetsu - a giant black'n'white sword with chain, which was shown to us only in one panel - the exact one it was broken by Yhwach's The Allmighty in. After it was seemingly repaired by Tsukishima, Ichigo used his Shikai, disguised as his bankai by white coating that can be easily broken. In bankai coating is the solid part of the blade, so it can't be broken of the blade 'cause it is the edge of it. Constant realise zanpakuto's were only a fan theory, which used the idea of Byakuya and Toshiro about Zangetsu and Nozarashi. But as Byakuya himself stated he was wrong in both of their cases. Thus Constant Release zanpakuto are non-existent.

Ichigo's true bankai did have his reiastsu form an infinity symbol. I don't know if that means anything.

I mean, if you think about it, Ichigo never really fully unlock his full power, his real bankai is still a mystery, what exactly is the power level, to force a character that was the closest to being a god in bleach verse to break it over and over again because it was too dangerous is something and this if we assume that was the full extend of Ichigo powers

I wonder if Ichigo's zanpakuto is always in released form because he never had a physical one, the one which was handed to shinigami at the academy. In other means, his zanpakuto is always a manifestation of his shinigami powers.

Isn't the Hell Arc movie based on a time before the Quincies revealed themselves?

Sorry if this is off topic, but I remember when ichigo trains to learn the final getsuga tensho he accepts his hollow powers. I'm struggling to understand that. Can you help me?

I would like some more interactions with white in the anime

I do wish he would get a kickass new fit

I was wondering why his shikai energy color went from blue to yellow when he uses his shikai?

Can you do a video on zanpakuto in bleach as well as shiki and bankai respectively? And the nature of zanpakuto spirits in general. There’s a cool video I found by res novae on why ichigo has only one technique that he mainly uses and I highly recommend watching it as it could help with the a future video like I’m suggesting above. Honestly the first form of his false shiki was basically the normal sealed state of his sword and now he finally got to use his full power untamed! Though admittedly not all of it. Hmm can we get a video on zenpachi’s zanpakuto in the future?

I’m wondering if he has a new Bankai again

His bankai will be scary as fuck

I’m sure he has a little bit of fullbring too

Just asking but this manga of Quince war ended in 2016 correct? 👀

Small correction. He is a Quincy Hollow hybrid with Shinigami powers. But he himself is not technically shinigami.

7:30 I just can't agree with this Every Zampakuto Nimaya has created has 3 forms, so why just Ichigo's different? For me he just really goes Shikai when he uses his HOS

So, if ichigo trains his quincy powers, will that short blad grow?

Can you answer this question for me. Judging from what I’ve seen in manga art (never read it yet) in the TYBW it looks as if ichigo lost his full bring markings after fighting The Quinn y king the first time. Do you know why this is? Why doesn’t he retain them because they were supposed to have fused with his Soul reaper powers?

Tsubarashi❤️

Hey I got a question, if Ichigo can go Vasto Lorde then technically could he go Arrancar with the help of the Hogyoku? Now ik that's ridiculous but I believe with what the guy was saying before he was technically just a soul that had really cool powers and not a soul reaper, so if the Hogyoku was put in the center of his Vaste Lorde hole what would that ultimately do? We see that's how the Vasto Lorde turn to a Arrancar (plus the mask and sword thing).

Hopefully they adapt his Quincy form

Where do you get the manga

Did you play bbs ?

is bleach hell arc still on going?

I still think that his true shikai is his old shikai. And now the only enigma is his bankai since in the end of the saga he revealed his old blade out of tensa Zangetsu, and then nothing.

notice that the bigger sword has a hole in it... resemble the "hollow" hole in the chest?

In order to master your Zanpakuto, you must become Zanpakuto.

Man I really want more bleach past tybw arc. Ichigo potentially wielding one sword then whipping out the 2nd sword during battle....oof Frankly I just want lots more new bleach and 52 episodes isn't enough for me, i'm greedy

really weird that they showed it in the new opening

you forget his full bring at the start of the vid

What if ichigo lost his asauchi so that is why his zanpakutou turned back to original

Ichigo true bankai is black and white Like a soul reaper clad in hollow armor Zangetsu is a hollowfied zanpakto It's ability is hollowfication Multiple Espada comment on how getsuga is like a cero But issuing has a fire based getsuga Which means getsuga is a technique not a ability so in short ichigo getsuga adds hollow qualities to it

I'll be real when I say this, I like that ivhigo has two swords to represent the two sources of power in him, but I don't like the individual swords' designs

does he still have fullbring powers in this state

honestly bankai fullbringer ichigo was the best bankai and in my opinion i thought that transformation was his strongest version. i guess not

so how long do you think it will take for his true shikai to appear in the anime?

So we would see all this in the anime?

Where to read this manga plzz tell me

Shouldn't his left sword have some extent of his fullbringer abilities since he is part fullbringer as well
