I especially got chills when zangetsu motivated ichigo to Say his name. "Abandon your fear. Turn and face him. Advance. Don't give an inch. Never stop! If you retreat you will age. Be afraid and you'll die! NOW SHOUT OUT MY NAME!"
@@devilshame4526actually wrong when kisuke urahara first did the training to regain ichigos power after ichigos first encounter with byakuka then old man zangetsu had no choice because if he did nothing Ichigo becomes hollow which is bad ofc and if he made Ichigo a Quincy that wouldn't stop him from becoming hollow that could even make him hollow faster this is why he had no choice but to make Ichigo a soul reaper it isn't that zangetsu stopped him it's that either he made him a soul reaper or he becomes hollow
This still to me is one of the best written lines in Bleach and the way Bosch delivers it is amazing. He truly sounds like a psychopath making complete sense at the same time.
@@BananaDoppio420 This is technically spoilers but White is the true sword spirit of his zanpukto. What he’s saying is that Ichigo’s the king, while White is the horse. It’s in their instinct and that’s what differentiates the two. White carries the king, Ichigo is said king.
@@ryanstaiger1712it’s a bit dumb though. A king’s form, ability, and power are clearly different from his horse. It makes no sense to assume these things are equal, but the quote relies on these aspects being equal.
@@BananaDoppio420it can be put like this: how is it two beings that are exactly equal gain power over the other? Instinct, pure and simple. One being gains an instinct to slaughter his enemies so they can’t hurt him or what he has, and of the two beings becomes the “King”, while the other becomes the “Horse”. We ALL have survival instincts, and that’s essentially what Zangetsu(Hollow Ichigo/White) is. His goal was never to take over Ichigo’s body, this fight proves he really could have if he wanted to. Zangetsu wanted Ichigo to fight with his instincts, not against them. Look up the fight between Zangetsu and Muramasa, it’s amazing to see how he fights. Using his instincts to overpower his opponent through brutal force aimed at vital points and organs. THAT is what he means, listening to your instincts keeps you alive. In context of the SHOW, he’s telling Ichigo to stop being a pussy and learn to use his power, in which the fighting style is all instinct based, backed by overwhelming force and damn near instant regenerative abilities
@@dungeonashu2987 it’s a special one shot Kubo released for bleachs 20th anniversary. You can read it online it’s about 74 pages and it gives us basically an introduction into a brand new arc about Hell, which will come out whenever Kubo decides to release stuff but it’s really cool. I don’t wanna spoil it for you tho
@@dungeonashu2987iirc its the most recent continuation for bleach. TYBW -> CFYOW -> SAFWY -> Hell arc. Could be wrong so take it with a grain of salt.
I love how zangetsu perfectly mirrors ichigo’s desire to get stronger (as the zanpakuto spirit should) by being an absolute menace and an actual threat to Ichigo
Aaahhh my ears,I was wearing headphones at full volume💀RIP my ears...I already can't listen from my left ear,you wanna destroy my right ear also and entirely make me deaf?💀
Basically he is saying that if all the characteristics between the king and the horse are the same but one still is the king what is the difference and his answer is instinct. As in there battle instinct to fight to improve to become more then just what they were made to be.
Hollows are driven by instinct (the horse), they dont need to train to have fighting abilities unlike soul reapers that needs to train to learn how to fight (the king).
The most interesting part of "White" is that he isn't ichigo's hollow power. It's his shinigami power. The thing we call "Zangestsu" isn't his shinigami power, it's his quincy power. The quincy part of him was subduing and taking on the burdens of his shinigami part. I think "Zangestsu" did it to protect ichigo in his own way, but I might be mi's remembering
When ichigo asked : wheres old man zangetsu? White : i am zangetsu. White is true zangetsu, while the fake one is quincy, who tried to protect ichigo by limiting his power.
See,Ichigo was the king,and Zangetsu was his horse. But since Ichigo had been taught hollows were just evil, he wound up ignoring his own horse and proceeded to head into battles without it.
this quote was cool af when i first watched it but its actually really stupid if you think about the fact that what makes humans what we are is that we are less controled by instinct and more by intelligence
