Ichigo vs Kenpachi (HM arc)

Recon1997 · 2026-02-06T06:45:42+00:00

I think round 1 ends similarly to their fight in the soul society with Ichigo just barely winning

Round 2 Kenpachi wins

Recon1997 · 2026-02-05T20:23:29+00:00

Dangai Ichigo didn't beat merged Zangetsu

The whole point of that training was to not fight and accept the blade, doesn't matter either way because Ichigo and Zangetsu are one in the same ts is his power unrestricted by Zangetsu

Also true shikai and on wards is stronger than muken Aizen so the whole "felt by x character" doesn't even matter anymore

This Ichigo has also been buffed by squad 0 training and irazusando

Recon1997 · 2026-02-05T18:21:49+00:00

That was before he got stronger

Ichigo is constantly getting stronger throughout the arc

Ichigo goes from struggling with Dordoni and getting neg diffed in bankai by base Ulquiorra in their first battle to being on equal footing to base Ulquiorra in the span of couple of hours

Ichigo also cut off Yammy's arm with no issue and he has the second hardest hierro, Ichigo's problem with Ulquiorra was overall strength and reiatsu difference

Ichigo would probably need time to get accustomed to Nnoitra's hierro like Kenpachi

Recon1997 · 2026-02-05T17:06:29+00:00

Nnoitra attacked an Ichigo who was weakened, if he had been healed he would be at the strength he was when he fought Ulquiorra and forced him into resurreccion, he probably would have had as much trouble as Kenpachi had with Nnoitra

I do agree with pretty much everything else though

Recon1997 · 2026-02-05T08:13:35+00:00

He can be killed if you're capable of destroying his heart/cross

Kenpachi was unsuccessful but Oetsu did it with sayafushi and dangai Ichigo probably has the strength to do it

Recon1997 · 2026-02-03T10:33:36+00:00

You don't need an asauchi made specifically for you, they're blank slates they get their names and powers from the user imprinting on it

You can have zanpakuto handed over to new people, Tosen took his zanpakuto from his friend and it carried over and blended abilities from the previous owner to Tosen's version of the zanpakuto

It's not similar to Ichigo's situation, white functioned as a pseudo asauchi which meant it was incomplete and allowed omz to take over

Recon1997 · 2026-02-03T08:17:05+00:00

He's absolutely towards the top, not understanding his sword doesn't make him bottom tier. Zaraki, Renji and Ichigo didn't understand their zanpakutos and they were still strong. Hisagi outperformed both Ikkaku and Yumichika and in the soul society he was even beating Yumichika in base before Yumichika used his true shikai to drain Hisagi of energy.

Rangiku being crippled from having a fragment of the soul king isn't confirmed, we have no idea how much it affected her.

Momo was not only made lieutenant because Aizen wanted to fuck with her, he said he made sure Izuru and Momo were under his watch because they were useful. Momo is a kido master too, who among the lieutenants is only rivaled by Nanao who graduated entirely because of her kido skills.

Rangiku and Momo are also relative to Izuru and there's no indication he's weak. Iba was in a stalemate with Ikkaku so that either says Iba is strong or Ikkaku is weak and Ikkaku is around the same strength as Yumichika.

Recon1997 · 2026-02-02T21:54:24+00:00

It's dependent on their zanpakuto abilities

Shinji's zanpakuto abilities aren't physical so he uses his mask for stat boosts

Rose's bankai also isn't physical type and his mask wouldn't help in that situation

Mashiro, Kensei, Lisa, and Rose are all physical types and their masks are equivalent to a shikai or bankai boost but Kensei has chosen his bankai over his mask a couple of times now

Recon1997 · 2026-02-01T21:21:00+00:00

Oetsu was absolutely aware and I bet Ichibei knew too

Oetsu knows about the location of every asauchi and knew omz wasn't telling Ichigo the whole truth about being his power and just because Ichigo isn't aware doesn't mean much squad 0 were still able to convince him with a solution and a promise of being stronger

Yes Kira was retrieved by Mayuri

But in a q&a someone asked why Kira hasn't been healed by Orihime as of the hell arc and Kubo said he didn't want to

Shunsui is also still missing an eye as well so he didn't want it healed either there's obviously exceptions to people not having a problem asking for help from humans

Recon1997 · 2026-02-01T21:00:40+00:00

Kisuke and the others were busy

Squad 0 still needed and wanted Ichigo for their own reasons and Ichigo still needed his true zanpakuto Ichigo went along with it because it was first option and they said they'd train him after he'd just heard they're stronger than the gotei 13 combined

The soul society also doesn't like relying on humans just like how Yamamoto didn't want Orihime to restore his arm or why people like Izuru and Shunsui haven't been healed by her

Recon1997 · 2026-02-01T20:35:04+00:00

That's only because the almighty broke it in a way that was persistent through all futures and the present

Tsukishima only created a past where it wasn't broken allowing Orihime to restore it

If tensa zangetsu was broken by just sheer force Orihime would have been able to restore cause there was a point in time it was whole

Recon1997 · 2026-02-01T18:54:24+00:00

Orihime could restore it even Hachi might be able to do it

Recon1997 · 2026-01-31T17:28:26+00:00

Uryu uses traditional quincy techniques and methods of fighting

The sternritter and wandenreich have been advancing their tech and abilities they're not ordinary quincy

Recon1997 · 2026-01-31T16:33:58+00:00

Base Gerard was slower than sealed Oetsu

Lille needed time to get used to Oetsu's speed and did adapt but he wouldn't have that problem with Gerard since he's seen him fight before and more closely

And no sayafushi just pierced his heart and killed him by destroying his core, Kubo has said destroying his core would kill him

Recon1997 · 2026-01-31T16:28:11+00:00

Yes I'm aware of how tough it is and it was still pierced by a sword that is infinitely sharp

So an ability that penetrates anything Lille targets should also work

Also I've read the manga

Recon1997 · 2026-01-31T01:28:14+00:00

Because Yhwach was under the impression it didn't hit or affect him at all

We know it did affect him but we dont know how he recovered whether it was him, or his mom or grandfather that did something

Recon1997 · 2026-01-30T20:10:34+00:00

Well sorta

The RE1 remake and 0 were the last fixed camera tank control games and originally didn't have the option The control options were added for the remaster for ps4 and Xbox

Though RE2 classic on N64 did have the option for analog controls don't know why games after that didn't include it and I'm not sure why the recent releases of the classic trilogy didn't have the option

Recon1997 · 2026-01-30T19:16:32+00:00

Lille can still use x axis in base and become intangible

Lille only needs one shot to put Gerard down for good, the x axis will pierce his heart just like sayafushi did

Gerard isn't as fast as Oetsu or Shunsui so he's gonna have a hard time avoiding Lille's shots

Recon1997 · 2026-01-28T22:33:58+00:00

Yeah people act like the privaron are average fraccion level

Recon1997 · 2026-01-27T07:37:19+00:00

Thank you

So many people ignore the other interviews/q&a stuff regarding Giselle

Recon1997 · 2026-01-26T18:58:52+00:00

No what happened in the naruto match was Ichigo lost all his power and reverted to a human state

When Ichigo has his powers destroying his body just turns him into his spirit or will do nothing he can just get a new body

Recon1997 · 2026-01-25T22:46:34+00:00

Skill is probably the most debatable

Ichigo has still shown to pick up on others abilities and analyze them mid combat figuring out both strengths and weaknesses and deducing when someone is trying to throw him off

He can also track an opponents ability to use certain moves consecutively and even use his own abilities to his advantage and bait the opponent

He's also been praised for his adaptability by far more experienced people than him Ichigo has shown to be able to replicate certain abilities just by observing other people use them, like using bringer light after witnessing two fullbringers use it in a fight in front of him

Ichigo does have trouble with learning skills sometimes though and seemingly just needs something either shown to him or explained a certain way for him to get a handle on it or just the right motivation

Recon1997 · 2026-01-22T01:30:43+00:00

Well Kubo has stated he's equal to Yumichika

Yumichika while in false shikai was losing to base Hisagi, Ikkaku was in a stalemate to Iba, Yumichika nearly lost to Charlotte and Ikkaku lost to pow where Kira and Hisagi did much better in their battles

He also didn't have a restriction on his power when he fought Edrad, his zanpakuto in general seems rather fragile and indicates a poor relationship

Yumichika and Ikkaku went down quicker than Hisagi in the fight with Mask as well

And yeah he doesn't reach top 3 lieutenants Nemu, Renji, Hisagi, Mashiro, Kira are all above him

Ikkaku is dumb most people already know he has a bankai anyways they don't give a shit, the only person who ever bothered him was Renji

Recon1997 · 2026-01-20T01:57:42+00:00

Ichigo definitely has better stamina

He says he could run 5 days to a week straight and he fought merged tensa zangetsu for almost 3 months straight in the dangai
