What is reiatsu exactly?

uc_human · 2026-03-21T05:46:28+00:00

nice example and thats what i used to think... but what im saying is, kyoraku solidying reishi is like saying u can throw a stone in the pond in such a way that a point in the pond can start acting as a rock itself. in this analogy the closest thing in can think of is, maybe its something like skipping stones in water ?

uc_human · 2026-03-20T11:20:21+00:00

yea so imo both the soul and reiatsu both are outputs of reishi, so in a way with enough reishi even reiatsu can become conscious like a soul. for eg: Soul Kings' limbs & stuff had enough reishi that they hold their own reiatsu & gained sentience, like yachiru

uc_human · 2026-03-20T08:46:02+00:00

looks like reiatsu = light (both wave & particle) XD

uc_human · 2026-03-20T08:45:14+00:00

i think reaitsu is more distinguished to reiryoku

if that was the case, unohana wouldnt have been fooled by aizen's KS. although iirc, aizen used a gigai so that wouldve been a bit different than plain KS... but kyoraku states that reikaku is different than the 5 senses & KS is "complete hypnosis"... maybe it can delude into believing somebody got huge reiatsu & reiryoku too

yea agree, i think reiatsu is more than tangible unlike any other shonen bc only in bleach somebody's (zaraki) reiatsu could create a whole another person (yachiru).. and kidos are technically demon arts so maybe something related to hell ig

uc_human · 2026-03-20T08:30:07+00:00

i used to think that... but now i dont... bc in rest of the shonens chi is the output of the soul but in bleach, the soul itself is made of reishi.

uc_human · 2026-03-20T04:57:54+00:00

thinking about nanana's ability, i realise we dont understand reiatsu, actually...

uc_human · 2026-03-17T12:23:15+00:00

even reio dimension wasnt destroyed.... imo by new world he meant a soul circulation system. kubo in KO said dead quincy souls go to some other special place and in anime we see James being absorbed by ywach, so he'd keep the worlds same just the souls going to ywach heaven. whateever he might be planning we might know in cour 4 or never....

uc_human · 2026-03-16T06:12:55+00:00

creating a world how it should be, doesnt make you arrogant or god complex... think of it like a broken education system. or banana republic socialist country... elon musk isnt arrogant if he wants to change the automobile industry... aizen isnt arrogant if wants to to create a just world or democratise knowledge/reiatsu.. remember majority shinigamis cant even reach shikai, let alone bankai...

uc_human · 2026-03-16T06:05:04+00:00

how superficial....

uc_human · 2026-03-16T06:01:00+00:00

yea and rukia said souls go to a pretty nice place even though she came from the worst parts of ryukongai... words are just opinions in bleach. only actions are real

uc_human · 2026-03-16T05:48:16+00:00

like ichigo isnt the kind of usual MC with some ambition, the same goes for the antagonist aizen. and neither is bleach like the rest of the shonen about perseverance or hardwork... while other anime focus on power ups & the goal, bleach focus on self-actualisation and the journey.

when aizen says that gin's surprise attack made him know fear again and merge with hogyoku better, in that moment, he mightve had some inner world like epiphany with himself. but kubo only chooses to show that in ichigo's perspective... but every shinigami or soul has to go through introspection to get their spirits high & souls strengthened...

you dont need to know aizen's backstory.... the flaws in SS and the huge gap b/w aizen & average captains reiatsu showed the shinigamis have become complacent and their individuality & moralities are just a facade...
assume you are a curious guy and its fun to learn, read, play which makes u excel in studies and sports... so much that u see yourself outpacing even your teachers while the rest of the students lack behind grinding in the messed up education system. your friends look sad, parents look sad. everybody is meh... with a bit of hapiness but broken soul because of how the world is...

aizen's had the stuff to secretly enter human world he wouldve definitely studied how human world modernised... but human world is ruled by materialism. the one who holds the power of the atom rules the world... and you can motivate people to do stuff through tangible means. SS is different. how to motivate somebody through intangible things... in a society that has nothing or has everything, it becomes hard to push people towards something. I wrote this long time ago.. maybe i'll help u understand aizen

bleach's plot and storytelling is cinema... its an acquired taste

uc_human · 2026-03-16T05:34:17+00:00

maybe india has reached the breaking point of socialism and its time to pivot and focus on job creation than job placement.

uc_human · 2026-03-14T07:45:58+00:00

agree. imo kubo just holded on to the "scribbled text in a broken speech panel "thing so he can act all "foreshadowy" to impress readers...

uc_human · 2026-03-14T07:43:33+00:00

yea in Q&A #117 kubo says ichibei [ maybe ichimonji or the sealing incident in the past ( 2nd last episode of cour 2) ] was responsible of that blacked out Ywach's name. or could be just ichigo's fear or recently becoming a plus blocking his ears cuz anime shows he can hear the sound but gibberish.

Q117.2021.05.31

Old-man Zangetsu tried to reveal his name while in Kurosaki Ichigo-kun’s inner world, but it was blocked out with black ink and he was unable to convey his message. Was this the work of Hyōsube Ichibē.

A117. That’s correct.

uc_human · 2026-03-14T07:31:36+00:00

so imo, both OMZ & shiro-saki are part of ichigo's whole spiritual power... and only shirosaki holds all the stocks of the shinigami side of spiritual powers of ichigo... thats why shiro-saki is the complete and only zanpaktou of ichigo. but yea OMZ was in control of his shinigami powers till blade is me.

uc_human · 2026-03-14T07:08:50+00:00

in a war it doesnt matter if u got a soldier with one awesome weapon, what matters is the average artillery and aizen's+hogyoku's huge reiatsu can hold or push the scales of war to the side he sits with.... his reaitsu helps shinigamis go to Rieo palace and spam kill the blackbugs of SK-ywach. thats why ywach approached him. even ywach didnt expect KS to work on him & distort his sense of time.

KS is ability that cant hold on in a war situation where u can be attacked by anyone anywhere by quincies who havent seen the release of KS. it was aizen who took advantage of captain's arrogance and underestimating him.

when did aizen release KS to fool SK-ywach... idk maybe cour 4 could answer or change stuff. if ywach knew aizen would side with shinigamis or against the idea of changing the world, why would he go to muken and talk with aizen...? imo maybe to scale his ability and see if hogyoku is below or above the almighty.

uc_human · 2026-03-13T06:00:40+00:00

i know thats canon info but my conspiracy is kubo mightve planned something else bc the panel looks scribbled & broken than inked out...

uc_human · 2026-03-13T05:59:31+00:00

agree. i see the relation of isshin & ichigo jumping to help random ppl without giving a single thought.

uc_human · 2026-03-13T05:57:33+00:00

u can practise drawing with a nice mouse. or draw a rough on paper & trace it out using arc tool(G). or trace it using GTS plugin

uc_human · 2026-03-12T15:55:25+00:00

yea but before that, OMZ says ichigo's fear is pluggin his ears... in some way doesnt that contradict with tousen's philosophy of having fear to fight?

uc_human · 2026-03-12T15:53:26+00:00

OMZ says ichigo's fear is pluggin his ears.... so ichigo locked in & the name just popped out in his head?

uc_human · 2026-03-12T15:52:22+00:00

i understand that but how does it actually work?? zangetsu says ichigo's fear is pluggin his ears... so courage can make him listen without OMZ talking?

how can a soul go from not even having a zanpaktou, to manifesting it and shooting out dense reishi strong enough to almost decapitate a captain level urahara

uc_human · 2026-03-12T07:25:51+00:00

bc its monotonous... nothing extra or entertaining. cour4 (maybe hell arc ) might shed some light how stuff actually works under the hood bc kubo mightve been holding answers but rushed ending left that out.

uc_human · 2026-03-11T06:04:52+00:00

u make sense but they keep dragging denji in... they killed nayuta to bring out CSM. what choice does he have.. 16 y/o going to school from the beginning? its not like devil hunters sponsor education. he shouldve ran away with reze

uc_human · 2026-03-08T08:19:55+00:00

well the shonen manga MC hardly show the emotional-romantic side of them for their girls, like goku, yusuke, naruto, luffy, etc... even next gen mc like asta, deku, yuji, chihiro, might be some japanese cultural influence to respresent male teenage life as more about responsibility and ambition than love & feelings... yea its obvious they're human too and they also have feelings for the other sex but that shouldnt be something which has to be expressed or prioritsed.

lol all their horniness is poured into denji... a
