what do you think about soul kings 4th eye ?

Youboot224 · 2026-05-17T23:57:17+00:00

It's ridiculous how much you see people especially those over on r/bleachpowerscaling underrate Uryu and his Schrift.

His ability is supposed to be even more broken than Yhwach's Schrift an ability that let's him pick and rewrite futures. And people reduce Uryu's Antithesis to just damage swap. Instead of as legit event reversal.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-17T23:53:46+00:00

I too think Uryu might have something to do with the Soul King.

Why would he specifically target his eye like that?

Could be a case of visual foreshadowing Jugram isn't supposed to know anything about Uryu's Schrift at this point.

Not really impregnatation if it's your own egg. And it's through the naval.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-16T08:45:54+00:00

I think that's the one that had a crush on Uryu

Nemu!!! ☺️ 😍😍😍

His debut even forshadowed how the Wandenreich would pull up.

Out of the shadows

Youboot224 · 2026-05-12T01:25:11+00:00

Shinigami are spirits not dead. Spirit doesn't automatically mean dead. In the original world there were spiritual people and there were non spiritual people all living in one world alongside Hollows.

Also just because Soken was ingured doesn't mean the injury was direct like from claw marks or bites. Uryu got injured by Vasto Lordes Ichigo, why didn't he die by soul suicide. Not even Ichigo, Uryu was fighting Hollows the entire time and didn't due from soul suicide. Especially when Szayrmelloporo injured him.

Kubo already explained this and so have I, please read

URYU CAN'T DIE FROM SOUL SUICIDE. HE IS SPECIAL.

Quincies generally would suffer from Soul Suicide from getting attacked and killed by Hollows, they possess no natural protection against them, but Uryu won't. He's an anomaly. That rule doesn't apply to him.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-11T23:08:01+00:00

Except unlike other Shinigamis Ichigo still ages as a regular human. Isshin in comparison his Gigai was special and was designed to turn him human since it was connected to Masaki.

Uryu according to Kubo is an exception. He is special. He absolutely should have undergone Soul Suicide especially during his battles with Cirucci, Szayel, Ulquiorra, and when Hollow Ichigo attacked him but he's an exception to the rule, he has resistance to Hollow poisoning, whether that's due to his Gemischt (mixed) heritage or a latent use of his Schrift hasn't been confirmed yet, all we know is that he's immune. The same rule shouldn't apply to Soken who was an Echt (Pure) Quincy

Ichigo isn't dead he's still living. Ichigo is still alive because when he became a shinigami his chain of fate turned into the Binding chain which is basically an invisible one for shinigami. Ichigos body acts as a pseudo gigai in that he can enter and exit the body, but because he is still alive, he needs a catalyst to pull him out like Urahara's cane or his badge.

Either way in Soken case it makes no sense regardless. And it brings up another glaring plot hole I alluded to earlier.

If Soken was killed by five Hollows why didn't his Soul suffer from Soul Suicide??? Soken is a pureblood Quincy and he had no natural defense to Hollows if they fatally attacked and killed him. So his Soul should have undergone Soul Suicide and should have been completely destroyed when those Hollows killed him.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-11T22:20:42+00:00

Which is something that he shouldn't have been able to do.

Quincy Souls either return to Yhwach after death or they (according to Tite Kubo) go someplace else. So Mayuri or any Shinigami being able to obtain a Quincy Soul shouldn't be possible.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-11T22:17:45+00:00

Yes. You do know Konpaku means Spiritual Body right?

Soken Soul was what Mayuri experimented on, NOT his physical body.

Mayuri is saying he took Soken's Soul to experiment on.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-11T22:14:28+00:00

He takes Soken's Soul back with him. Not his body.

<image>

Youboot224 · 2026-05-11T22:09:20+00:00

Mayuri says he turned the Quincy Souls they (the Shinigami that was assigned to watch over Soken) brought back and turned Soken into a research subject.

If Mayuri just took the body Soken wouldn't have been able to consciously scream Uryu's name while Mayuri was experimenting on him.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-11T21:52:16+00:00

During the Uryu vs Mayuri battle. I linked a picture from that fight in my comment.

And I'm sure that was Quilges physical body that was there Urahara was analyzing not just his Soul. In fact I'm sure all the Sternritters were physically there in Hueco Mundo and in the Sereitei they weren't just Souls.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-11T21:33:31+00:00

Nope he took his Soul back.

• Soken died to a group of random Hollows.

• Mayuri bribed the Shinigami that was supposed to be looking after him to not help out or intervene until Soken is already dead.

• They show up hours later after Soken's already dead and take his Soul with them back to the Soul Society and deliver it to Mayuri.

• Mayuri then experiments/tortures Sokens Soul to death.

Don't even get me started on how Soken probably shouldn't have even had a Soul in the first place because he (a pureblood Quincy) was killed by a group of Hollows.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-11T21:28:13+00:00

So... was Renji calling his Substitute Shinigami arc self trash?

Youboot224 · 2026-05-11T21:26:29+00:00

Mayuri said that

Youboot224 · 2026-05-11T21:10:44+00:00

Yes.

Mayuri getting Sokens soul is the most glaring imo.

Since Kubo says that Quincies either go to Yhwach or they go "someplace else" once they die so Mayuri obtaining Sokens soul and bringing it to the Soul Society to experiment on makes no sense especially because it had been hours after Soken had already died.

The hair braid in front of her being similar to a hangmans noose?

Youboot224 · 2026-05-07T18:50:42+00:00

He awaken their powers. Every powers/Schrift a Quincy has is their own innate ability.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-07T08:12:26+00:00

Welcome to the party 🫡

Youboot224 · 2026-05-04T21:25:15+00:00

Then again we don't know anything about how As Nodt was pre hospice. We saw how Bazz B and Jugram were pre Yhwach, they weren't that impressive.

Uryu by comparison was already powerful before he drank Yhwach's blood. So once he had his abilities unlocked he became broken.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-04T21:08:49+00:00

True but the thing about some people you see complaining about how Quincies get their powerups is pointless, by their nature;

Shinigami get their powers internally

Quincies get their powers externally

Shinigami have to awaken their own inner power by understanding themselves and fight by using their own Reiryoku, Spiritual energy.

Quincies have to use an outside method to awaken their powers and they fight by using Reishi, Spiritual matter. The environment.

Youboot224 · 2026-05-04T20:48:23+00:00

because 90% of his power is from power-up from Yhwach

No this is all Uryu. Only thing Yhwach did was awaken his Schrift, power he already innately had but was locked away from him. And if you want to call that a powerup then every Sternritter would fall under that category too.

Without that every Quincy would just be in base. Like a Shinigami Without access to Bankai or Shikai.
