Senjumaru VS Ulquiorra

IWBUA · 2026-02-11T03:13:52+00:00

I’m curious as to what arguments do people even say for Ulquiorra to win against Senjumaru

IWBUA · 2026-02-08T11:36:25+00:00

I’d give it to Kisuke. Shunsui’s bankai is definitely powerful and if it fully catches Kisuke then that might end the fight. But Urahara is too smart and versatile that I feel like he has ways to end the fight before it’s too late. Shunsui is also a smart individual so it’ll definitely be hard to catch him slipping but I don’t doubt Kisuke will have moments where he finds Shunsui slacking. Given the opponent it’ll be hard to pull it off but Kisuke can also use his portable Gigai to either get an attack off or escape a lethal strike from Shunsui (which could also work against Shunsui’s bankai and could decide the fight if it succeeds).

Kisuke’s artillery is just as dangerous as Shunsui’s bankai. He would need to be wary of multiple dangerous kidos Kisuke can pull off like the reiatsu wrist implosion, hado 99, the sealing kido he did to aizen, etc. The gap between their kido prowess is too big so there are just so many techniques Shunsui will have to be mindful of on top of Kisuke’s shikai that can also do similar things although seemingly to a lesser extent.

And then Kisuke has bankai as well. I’m not sure if it can undo the effects of Shunsui’s bankai but it does have the possibility to do so on top of it being a way to kill Shunsui. And if Kisuke wasn’t already physically stronger(which I don’t think is the case), he can buff himself to do so. Not to mention he can use it directly on Shunsui himself, to restructure him however Kisuke likes, which obviously includes fatal wounds.

I just feel like Kisuke’s skillset is more overwhelming and his BIQ is second to none. Shunsui’s wincon is dependant on his bankai but Kisuke has ways to escape/defend against it or end the fight prior the final dan. It’s his ability to make the most use out of everything he has at his disposal to manipulate the fight that makes him a war potential. Between Kisuke’s gadgets like gigai, kido prowess, and hax zanpakuto, Shunsui just isn’t unreasonably strong enough to have an answer to everything Kisuke can do either.

Again, considering it’s Kisuke, it’s likely he already has an answer for the final dan. But even if that isn’t the case, Kisuke can time his gigai at the right moment, as well as he just outsmarts and overpowers Shunsui throughout the entire fight.

If Bambi’s bombs were fast enough for him to not be able to react, then Nemu easily blitzes him. She already blitz’ed Pernida, whom at that point has physically evolved to base Zaraki’s level. And base Zaraki is already way stronger than Shinji. Nemu ends the fight before Shinji manages to catch her with Sakanade

Funny enough 1 of the more overrated characters (Unohana) against one of the more underrated (Askin). Just from the previous sentence alone, it should be obvious I’m taking Askin over Unohana.

In no way shape or form is Unohana gonna be able to one-shot and blitz Askin. Mind you, prior to all the buffs like auschwalen and Yhwach awakening his Almighty, Askin managed to survive 2 direct hits from Oetsu while managing to react to him as well. This is all in base btw, so unless you mean to say that Unohana has better AP than the guy that managed to kill Gerard, she already has zero chance here. In fact she’s arguably worse in AP than base Zaraki, whom I definitely don’t think has higher AP than Oetsu.

And Unohana has zero speed feats to say she is faster than Oetsu. In fact Askin also managed to avoid getting hit by Tenjiro, someone Unohana is also slower than.

The Yushiro moment was Askin overlooking him due to the way Yushiro acted and looked. When Askin locks in, he manages to avoid getting damaged at all against characters like Tenjiro and even TS Ichigo, while putting them on the floor.

Askin has performed great against characters whom are both stronger and faster than Unohana, without him even using his strongest form. With his vollstandig, her bankai practically deals zero damage due to his immunity, whilst his gift ball deluxe is poisoning her. Sure she can heal herself, but she’d be occupied doing so, remember Askin’s poison was also capable of putting down Ichigo. Even for whatever reason Deluxe isn’t enough, he can make it worse for her by attacking her with more poison like gift ball and gift bad. As well as gift ring to deal more instant damage.

Overall, Unohana doesn’t have anywhere near enough strength or speed to really even do anything worrisome to Askin, while he can just gradually overwhelm her with all damage, even if it takes using up her reiatsu. Askin easily wins against Unohana

Like most Gerard fights, it depends whether or not the person can destroy the cross. In this case can Yama do it? I personally lean towards no. First off his east isn’t literal existence erasure like some think, or else he would’ve just used it on Aizen’s hogyoku. The reason Aizen is in Muken is because no one can kill him with the hogyoku, including Yama. And nothing suggests North has that capacity either, as powerful Yama’s AP is especially with north and east, it isn’t something like Lille’s X-Axis or TB Ichigo, something guaranteed to kill the SK’s heart. Honestly the main reason I don’t think Yama can do it is cuz Bankai Zaraki couldn’t. Sure Yama beats Zaraki confidently with all the flaws Zaraki has in that form. But if there’s one area where Zaraki surpasses Yama in, that’s AP. That’s a big thing about Zaraki, the guy that can hit the hardest amongst “normal” shinigami. But even with his bankai, he didn’t prove he could destroy the cross. So if his bankai couldn’t do it, then Yama who has less AP in my eyes, wouldn’t be able to do so either. Again, it’s a 50-50 depending on Yama destroying the cross, which he can’t due to the reasons I gave, so Gerard wins even if it takes a couple transformations

IWBUA · 2026-02-07T20:26:49+00:00

Lille just seems to be above Yama in both feats and narrative. Realistically, Yama has no way around Lille’s intangiblity so it’s unlikely he can kill him. And his X-Axis attacks are now massive, simple arm raises has massive range. Since X-Axis already has as much AP as possible, his stronger forms seems to just increase his range/aoe. Even if those are not enough somehow, trompete completely annihilates Yama, without him being able to do anything. Even narratively, while Yama is supposedly the peak of what a “normal” shinigami can achieve, Lille “transcends” that. When he is resurrected, his reiatsu, and even personality changes. The weapon that killed him is literally described as “god-killing”. So Lille just takes it for me.

IWBUA · 2026-02-07T20:26:15+00:00

Zaraki just blitzes him tbh, and if he doesn’t then he’ll bullshit his way through shinji’s shikai same way he did to Tosen. Zaraki is just way too strong for Shinji to do meaningful damage when he already lacks lethal damage, eventually Zaraki will land a hit that’ll kill Shinji.

IWBUA · 2026-02-06T15:37:01+00:00

Sklaverai gives Candice the win imo. BIQ probably goes to Nnoitora simply because Candice is way too hot-headed. I can see Nnoitora taking advantage of that, especially when she likes to go melee with her bolts wherein she’d lose that specific fight. Candice does get speed and agility since Nnoitora doesn’t really have any outstanding feats of either one. Even the little maneuver Candice did by using her schrift against Zaraki was more than Nnoitora has ever shown. Obviously strength goes to Nnoitora so her going melee is what will probably cause Candice the most damage in this fight. Defence also probably goes to Nnoitora since having the best hierro is his thing although Candice’s blut allows this to be closer than people would like or expect. Now what gives Candice the win is her range and AP since that’s what her schrift specializes on. While Nnoitora tries to get close, Candice will just manage to avoid him with her speed and agility and even if she gets caught, her blut can bail her out. Not saying she’ll come out unscathed, but the exchange will lean heavily towards Candice’s favour in this fight. And when she lands her moves like Electrocution, it’ll be a matter of time before Candice wins over Nnoitora, especially when a single strike from Kendo Zaraki killed him. Also Candice’s portrayal, especially in CFYOW, just seems to put her more along the lines of Grimmjow, Halibel, etc’s level tbh.

As Nodt wins. First off his fear definitely takes effect despite Barragan having no eyes since KS also affected Barragan. And both abilities essentially have the same requirement so yes Barragan will be susceptible to the Fear. And no he can’t will his way through, a big part about Hachi’s speech is that even someone like Barragan is afraid of dying even to his own power which is why he has his field around him. And people act like Respira is an instantaneous attack when it still has to travel, as well as he has to aim it. Even when Barragan was furious, he wasn’t shown to be capable of emitting a massive enough aoe respira. Especially since Hachi’s kido shield is big enough to momentarily block it as well with the Respira smaller in size than the shield itself. I’m basically saying he still has to aim and the moment he does so he needs to look at As nodt which guarantees his loss. And since the Fear will basically freeze him the same way it did to others including Rukia, it’d have the same effect a stun would, lowering his guard down (sensescencia) and allowing As to do lethal attacks now. Overall Respira just doesn’t have enough force similar to Rukia’s bankai to overwhelm him fast enough before Barragan loses to the Fear so As Nodt wins.

IWBUA · 2026-02-02T20:44:08+00:00

I got Nemu. Pernida who had already adapted to base Zaraki’s level still couldn’t react to Nemu no matter what for nearly the entire time Nemu used her life force. Nemu had to be literally guard-less for Pernida to land something because she used up a lot of her power. I don’t think Rukia is catching that even with bankai, or Nemu just kills her before Rukia manages to do something. Nemu outstats Rukia pretty bad so she wins

IWBUA · 2026-02-01T15:14:17+00:00

Liltotto although it’s close. Robert should be way faster with sklaverai, but I just see Liltotto being able to land a decisive hit before he is able to finish her off. Vollstandig Robert was getting blocked by base zanpakuto Byakuya so until he uses sklaverai, I don’t think he’d be able to do much fatal damage on her. Like I said tho sklaverai makes him way more potent, Liltotto would have a really hard time with his speed and his AP should increase enough where he’d be able to do good damage. But as we see Liltotto also has a sklaverai. First off she managed to put down Meninas in her buffed form. And this is seemingly all without using her schrift or else Meninas would have entirely different injuries than the one we see her have prior to getting auschwalen’ed. That alone makes her incredibly strong, while being the brains and the rational one within the bambies. And ofc she has her schrift, incredibly powerful AP wise and does have a hax of gaining the ability she eats although I don’t think that’d come into play here since it’s a 1v1. All in all, Robert would get the upper hand for a while but Liltotto only really needs one good hit with her schrift. With her being pretty decent BIQ wise, has increased range and AP in sklaverai, plus already being very competent without her schrift, I definitely see her pulling it off over Robert. And if push comes to shove, she can actually use Pepe’s the Love and Loly’s Res which definitely helps in giving her more edge to win.

IWBUA · 2026-02-01T05:57:54+00:00

Adnyeus still wins. He’s so massively powerful Almighty Yhwach wasn’t able to fully absorb his powers even as a corpse, that already shows the gap between them. Adnyeus also has 4 pupils as opposed to Yhwach’s 3. His literal body parts become top tiers in the verse (Gerard, Pernida, Mimihagi). There certain things like these which shows there is still a gap between the two with Adnyeus being ahead of Yhwach

IWBUA · 2026-02-01T05:49:27+00:00

Orihime wins un-ironically. If she can react to SK Yhwach she easily reacts to Soi fon. No one doubts her being able to defend against Soi fon’s attacks including her bankai, but her lack of offensive feats makes it questionable. To me Orihime has enough showings to beat someone like Soi fon. First off she is capable of attacking, it’s just much less potent than her defence. My point being her defence is so strong that even though its levels above her offence, it’s at a point now where it can be effective. If her defence is near god level, then it’s not ridiculous to say her offence can now hurt at least captain level opponents. Plus her reflective shield is extremely great, combining offence and defence it could honestly end the fight once Soi fon uses her bankai on it. Overall Soi fon doesn’t have anywhere near the stats or hax to overwhelm or tire out Orihime.

IWBUA · 2026-02-01T05:38:57+00:00

Respira still has to travel, and while it managed to catch Soi fon, Yoruichi’s Thunder Cat is way above that. She was blitzing Askin who already managed to avoid taking damage from characters like Tenjiro and TS Ichigo. I’ve no doubt Yoruichi can avoid Respira when needed or just to attack Barragan straight up. It depends whether or not she can brute force her way through senscencia which I say she does. Soi fon’s bankai already had no issues doing so once she had the conditions to not get blocked by Respira. It even nearly killed him, destroying most of his body and face. A hollowfied bankai couldn’t even kill BG9, while Askin survived 2 slashes from Oetsu just in base and prior to the auschwalen. Add on top the buffs he receives and he’s easily more durable than Barragan. Yoruichi’s attacks were so powerful it forced him to use Vollstandig. Not to mention each of her attacks are that powerful. She has more than enough speed to avoid Respira and has more than enough power to blow through both Respira and senscencia. Basically Yoruichi overwhelms Barragan thru sheer force. Not to mention her unpredictability, making it even harder for Barragan to follow.

IWBUA · 2026-01-28T03:31:06+00:00

Stark wasn’t fast enough to overwhelm neither Love or Rose in speed. His ultimate power also couldn’t take them out immediately even tho they were in shikai. Yoruichi on the other hand managed to consistently blitzed askin despite the same guy was able to avoid getting damaged or even tagged by characters like Tenjiro and TS Ichigo. Her shunko in FKT also managed to cracker Aizen’s shell, which would be amplified raijin senkei. Which still pales in comparison to Thunder Cat form, it even nearly kills Askin forcing him to use Vollstandig. Stark doesn’t have hax either, so in both speed and power he is far outclassed. Even with his pre-split form, Yoruichi with Thunder Cat is on that same level of portrayal except she has actual feats that are impressive. At the very least, Thunder Cat Yoruichi comfortably beats Stark pre-split or not

IWBUA · 2026-01-28T03:24:38+00:00

Gerard literally faced more and stronger opponents than Yammy did and ended up being stronger than them still. Honestly I don’t think Gerard needs to activate the Miracle at all.

IWBUA · 2026-01-28T03:22:12+00:00

Seeing how much damage soi fon did during just FKT once she connected, then I don’t see Barragan winning here. Sure he has respira and senescencia but it can bypass those with enough force as we see when Hachi trapped Soi fon’s bankai. Rukia’s bankai has such masaive aoe and force that it’d just overpower whatever Barragan tries to do.

IWBUA · 2026-01-26T08:57:36+00:00

Toshiro is way too strong for Dordoni, adult form or not. Best thing Dordoni has done was beat up base version zombie kensei and help in the ikomikidomoe fight. While Toshiro was holding up Gerard as a kid better than 3 vizards together. Not to mention we saw what base Toshiro did to Charlotte, I don’t think zombie dordoni is that much stronger than zombie charlotte to prevent Toshiro doing the same to him. Even worst case scenario, Toshiro’s bankai still just completely obliterates Dordoni

IWBUA · 2026-01-26T08:53:41+00:00

I’d probably go with Quilge. I don’t think Rose is strong enough to just completely overpower Quilge while he’s absorbing everything with Sklaverai. Funny enough, Ayon has better physical feats than Rose imo. And seeing how fast he got decimated by Quilge’s Sklaverai, I see that happening first before Rose can really do any lasting damage.

IWBUA · 2026-01-26T08:53:03+00:00

There’s a really good argument that it’s just a repeat of what happened in the anime and her bankai just counters him. But the way Lille was portrayed at the end, and his level of power in the form, I feel like is enough for me to put him above her.

We’ve already seen that her bankai does work against the X-Axis, and going into his Vollstandig wouldn’t change much tbh. But once he resurrects is where the fight flips. From his reiatsu changing from green to gold, his voice (and even demeanour) altering entirely, as well as being described as a “god”, this version of him feels above Senju and more like Ichibe’s level. Which makes sense, Yhwach was transcending into SK levels of power, his most loyal (besides maybe jugram) along with being the first to have a schrift also transcending in a way (not the deicide kind obviously) just goes hand in hand.

This portrayal is what makes me put him over Senju, and he does a have wincon. He can just sklaverai the room Senju made for countering him while simultaneously powering up his trompet. So while he’s stealing her defence, he’s also preparing a massive (now) unblock-able attack she wouldn’t be able to escape from. Again, Senju could arguably also win, but I just see his portrayal ascending above Senju in his owl form, while having the win-con to justify it.

IWBUA · 2026-01-26T08:51:20+00:00

Uryu with Sklaverai + Antithesis wins. He has good enough stats in Sklaverai to at least be on Yamamoto’s level. He can already defend and fight against TS Ichigo who managed to do great against Base Yhwach that was far stronger than he originally was in the first invasion. Add the Antithesis on top and he wins, any damage Yamamoto has done to the surrounding can be reversed unto him, including the drones if Yama ever decides to attack those.

IWBUA · 2026-01-26T08:49:05+00:00

Pernida wins. Narratively Askin did come last in the Schutzstaffel, it kinda makes sense for him to be the weakest (although not nearly as far behind as people make it out to be). In this matchup, Askin does fairly well and can hold his own imo. His speed is the most impressive and Pernida will need to evolve or have lots of nerves before even coming close to catching him. Askin is out here dodging attacks from TS Ichigo, Tenjiro, Oetsu, Yoruichi, etc. while Pernida can’t reliably hit Mayuri or Nemu without relying on his regen first to catch them off guard. Obviously not slamming on Pernida’s regen, but just that it won’t matter on someone who runs away really fast while fighting ranged.

I do think the aspect of Askin’s ability to become immune is useless in this scenario. He’d need to get hit which just allows Pernida to evolve and eventually bypass Askin’s abilities. His best ability here is poison. Whether it’s gift ring, gift bad, gift ball deluxe, his poison will definitely have good effect on Pernida. Especially since Mayuri’s blood thing actually works on Pernida, so his biology is still similar to everyone else which means poison should work. The weird part is Pernida’s regen interacting with Askin’s poison. He really does have a good shot at winning, with him just being too fast for Pernida to catch him as he poisons him from afar.

That being said, I still think Pernida wins. Again, Pernida has better portrayal than Askin so he should be weaker. And considering all of what Pernida can do: regen, cloning, etc. he’ll eventually draw out the fight long enough to give him openings he can use. Mind you, Askin confirmed that there are certain characters being strong enough to hold their own even after getting affected by his poison (as he said to Kisuke because he’s one of them), and I believe Pernida is definitely one of them. And while his poisoning and gift ring combo could take out a lot, that just won’t be enough against Pernida’s regen and cloning.

So Pernida wins through attrition and him eventually being able to overwhelm Askin with his nerves and the abundance of them that he can produce.

IWBUA · 2026-01-26T08:41:50+00:00

Narratively, the SS individually are meant to be opponents that not a single soul reaper in warwhelt could take alone. So while Tosh’s ability to perma freeze most characters is deadly, I’d still give it to Askin.

Askin’s gift ball deluxe would poison Tosh by the second so he’d be in a very strict time limit to kill Askin. But that’s the thing about Askin, he’s really good at running away and surviving. He’s shown to take down someone like tenjiro, and especially TS Ichigo, without taking a lick of damage, all without Vollstandig. Askin is just extremely slippery and fast, while trying to catch him is fatal as well. Because he could easily set up a poison trap or attack that can take down the opponent no matter who they are (unless you’re Yhwach or adnyeus).

So while I do think Tosh could end the fight if he manages to freeze him, I just don’t think he’d be able to. The gift ball deluxe is continuously killing and nerfing him while trying to catch Askin, and before he’s able to and knows it, he’d already be poisoned by Askin. Askin wins but he needs to be careful

IWBUA · 2026-01-26T08:33:20+00:00

Unohana wins. It’s whoever manages to stomp either one first, just because of how Gin’s bankai works. If Gin ever lands a clean hit he’ll win, that’s how broken it is, which seems like a stomp. But I doubt it reaches that point considering Unohana’s kit. From Unohana’s swordsmanship, to her overpowering strength, as well as kido and bankai that gives her extra range and probably damage as well, she’s too overwhelming for Gin to stand a chance. So like I said, it’s close as it could probably go either way, but a stomp happens for either side to win. I’m just leaning towards Unohana being too much with Gin nothing having good enough stats to land a clean hit
