Don't get me wrong, all of these moments are amazing, but in my ever so humble opinion, Ichigo's most impressive moment is his display of godly willpower when he resists Yoruichi in the hot spring.
Was honestly expecting to see the moment Ichigo pulled out his true Zangestu in TYBW. For me, that moment is the culmination of Ichigo's arc. He knows the truth, and he's accepted it. He's finally accepted who he is.
What about the part when Ichigo never actually fights with it and then loses his holo and quincy powers against Yhwach so we'll never know what true Zangetsu actually does?
@@otislloyd-zollinger2579 his Bankai was broken as soon as it was activated. All Ichigo did was jump around in his Shikai trying to figure out Yhwach's powers Also I took the white blade breaking off and his original shikai showing as his holo side disappearing but I just reread the ending and that's prob not right, idk what the white part breaking off means anymore
I have always loved the moment in the Ichigo vs Grimmjow fight when Ichigo catches Grimmgow's claw, and says "Sorry Grimmjow, I can't afford to take any more injuries"
I remember people saying that moment was an asspull, like ''how could he have done that if he's getting beat up so much'', but they forget Ichigo had already done that exact same move to Grimmjow before while they were shit talking each other( and then gave him one massive slash across the chest). In that fight Ichigo was constantly pulled away from his focus because of Orihime, and seeing her support him put him back on track.
@@Vini-zv3lr and one thing is soul reapers r different than humans if someone has immense sp like ichigo they can withstand these injuries that's why zaraki can fight even getting injured numerous time against nnoitora
Ichigo saving Rukia was truly beautiful. Stopping the execution without looking back, humiliating the 3 vice-captains like they were nothing and pulling up with that cloak - utterly disrespectful, amazingly badass, eternally iconic.
For reals and his Bankai will forever be iconic, at the time I remember when that stance was everywhere from wallpapers to fan art to animations and everyone knew the moment he would make his stance he was smack everyone in his way. It's sad it had to be taken out as Ichigo progressed but understandable
Perhaps not the most iconic or flashy moment, but my favourite panel is when Byakuya is near death and beseeches Ichigo to save Soul Society. Aside from it looking badass, it just has so much narrative weight that really gave me the impression that Ichigo has earned the respect of the shinigami with all that he's done. Edit: Oh, it's part of number 6
3 moments I would've added to this list as honorable mentions: 1) when ichigo flash steps and attacks ulqiourra after he says he kidnapped orihime 2) when ichigo defeats jidanbo and destroys his axes 3) when ichigo is training with urahara and finally lands a blow against him tearing his hat and leaving that massive crater in the landscape
My favorite Ichigo moment is when Byakuya says "You came here to throw away the life you so narrowly managed to hold on to." And Ichigo says "I'm not throwing it away. I'm going to beat you and go home." Still gives me goosebumps.
For me; The most epic and character defining of Ichigo Kurosaki is the moment where Ichigo pulls out both Zangetsus from the forging process from Oh-etsu. Everything leading up to this climactic moment; Everything but the rain, the origin of white Ichigo and old-man Zangetsu. The self acceptance. This was the moment Ichigos whole life was leading up too. This is where Ichigos character was fully developed. Also It just looks so badass!!!
The best was when he stood before Rukia ready to rescue her. It's an iconic moment. First impression of his kindness was when he defended the memorial shrine from those thugs in the very beginning. Ichigo is a true legacy protagonist if ever there was one.
While ichigo isn’t my favorite mc in anime he’s got more amazing moments to count. One of my favorites probably being him finally taking control of white, really showing the pure determination that he had gained up until that point.
The only one I can think of that you didn't mention was ichigo defeating grimmjow. I also enjoyed his arrival at the 2nd invasion where he confidently takes on 4-8 sternritter with his first NEW TECHNIQUE SINCE MUGETSU
One of the best Ichigo moments imo was the way he carried Rukia after he saved her from the execution. And then proceeded to straight up yeet her at Renji
When it came to the Vasto Lorde Ichigo vs Ulquiorra, My fave moment was the roar that Ichigo gives us. The bone-chilling roar that he gives in the Japanese version, even the English version gives us a good animalistic roar. There was one video where someone had combined the two and it sounds even creepier.
One of my favorite moments is during the Soul Society arc when Ichigo faces Kenpachi, when Old Man Zangetsu talks to Ichigo about how zapakuto are essentially alive and have thoughts, something Kenpachi doesn’t listen to because he believes zanpakuto are tools to fight with. Eventually, Old Man Zangetsu provides Ichigo enough power to hold the bleeding in Ichigo’s chest so that he can have one final blow at Kenpachi. Ichigo and Kenpachi face off with one final attack with Kenpachi acknowledging that Ichigo won
my favorite Ichigo moment is when he still tries to fight Ulquiorra despite knowing he's probably gonna die. like the way Bleach does it's power of friendship scenes are my favorite in Shonen because Ichigo proves he would die for his friends in that moment, really painfully yet how much he loves his friends not only keeps him there but makes his spirit unbreakable. And that unbreakable spirit is part of what makes Ichigo the mc as much as his unique existence, or just being naturally powerful. It's definitely the scene that made me really like Ichigo and helped me realize what he says about his friends aren't lip service, and he would die rather horribly for them if he has to which is so important for a shonen manga that relies on the power of friendship trope.
In the hell verse movie he was more than willing to defy soul society and go back to hell to save his friends even knowing he had very little chance of beating the bad guy without hollow powers
The best moment in the series in my opinion is "It's over". It might not be as crazy or as hype as these moments but the moment when ichigo realizes that after all he did that he genuinely can't beat yhwach is just beautiful. I also love how he differs from other shonen protagonists who just always yell "I'll never give up" in every moment.
For me, the best Ichigo moment happened during chad’s/Sado’s flash back when Chad was chained down under a bridge and Ichigo Epically came out of nowhere to saved chad. To make it all better he calls an ambulance for them all before kicking their asses. This moment showed how Ichigo would do anything to protect his loved ones long before he knew he had super powers.
Vasto Lorde and Dangai Ichigo will probabaly be the two of the coolest moments in all of manga/anime for me.... Even with moment alike Horn of salvation, I don't think we ever had moments of this level near the end of TYBW
28:10 Ichigo really has numerous more epic moments as well, another one that I particularly like is when Ichigo defeated the 1st Menos Grande back in Subtitute Shinigami Arc. I remember when watching the anime for the first time, this scene was what got me *really* hooked with Bleach. The way that he deflects the Cero back to the Menos unleashing his reiatsu at maximum force and sending him back to Hueco Mundo, and then making a "V sign" with his hand while shouting "Victory!"(all of this with the "Number One" song playing), it's just overwhelmingly good for me. Great video as always btw
I honestly I would love a top ten character theme moments like a moment where a character or characters shined in their character as a whole. Like when Myuyrui talking to Syrlaopo or when Ukitake and Shunshie talk about the past or hell when Old Man Yama states he would feel bad killing a child when fighting wounderwiess and so so forth moments that shall off a character in their way.
I think my 2 two favorite moments with Ichigo is when he saves Rukia from being executed and straight out one shot each 3 of the vice captains like they were nothing. And in the fake Karakura arc when he returns all badass with the long hair and immediately grabs Aizen in the face, shoving him away from his friends to another location. Those are my favorite moments throughout the series. And one last favorite moment was when he caught’s Aizen’s zanpakuto with one hand, it’s as the roles were reversed back in the Soul Society arc when Aizen blocked Ichigo’s zanpakuto with one finger. That’s another badass epic moment from Ichigo.
Before watching, here are some of my favorites that come to mind : "Give me the sword, Soul Reaper" and defeating Fishbone D. Five Ambulances Helping Ikkaku instead of letting him bleed out Defeating Kenpachi Showing up at Rukia's execution, laying out the three Vice Captains, and destroying the Sokyoku 'Last' conversation with Rukia after he's lost his powers and she's fading from his sight. Dangai Ichigo and the Final Getsuga I could probably count a lot of neat scenes with White or Hollow Ichigo, but those tend to be more reliant on things that aren't driven by Ichigo himself. Also having trouble recalling a lot of what he did that impressed upon me in the Hueco Mundo and Fake Karakura arcs.
During the Final Grimmjow fight, after Orehime told him not to die. Grimmjow rushed in for an attack, and Ichigo just catches his hand and tells Grimmjow the business. He turns that whole fight around.
The best part is Ichigo wasn’t looking at Grimmjow. Still relying on his instincts to know when to catch Grimmjow’s hand with such little effort. A little glimpse that even as beaten as Ichigo is in that moment, he’s still stronger.
@@Davidofthelost It also serves as kind of a foreshadowed glimpse of what happens in the end of the arrancar arc when Dangai Ichigo beats Aizen. He gets that same mentality but it lasts much longer during that fight, while during the Grimmjow fight it was just for that smaller moment.
I remember the moment Ichigo was approaching Byakuya and Ukitake, and Ukitake couldn't recognize the reitsu but acknowledged it was of captain level. This is an awesome list, well done
All the Soul Society moments still stick with me. Ichigo getting "Zangetsu" for the first time crouching in that bad ass pose Him drawing blood from Zaraki for the first time Him rescung Rukia, spinning the blade form the cloth hilt destryoing the scaffold and taking down the three vice captains Him releasing his bankai for the first time and when Byakuya insults him and tries to attack Ichigo but finds a sword next to his throat The anime did a really cool job with this, where the petals does a layered wipe over to the next shot Him slicing up all the petal blades. Only after that I liked was the fights with Ulquiorra and Aizen but it didn't stick because of how one sided those fights were. Nothing in TYBW stuck with me, only that final strike against Yhwach after Aizen distracted him was kinda cool.
#1 (I know you said manga, but there's something from the animation that makes this 1 special): Ichigo saving Rukia at the execution grounds; stops the Sokyoku, throws Rukia, demolishes 3 vice captains, of which 1st lieutenant for Genryusai. WHILE THE MUSIC WAS BLASTING IN THE BACKGROUND. #2 Vaste Lorde Ichigo, when he BAREHANDED Ulquiorra's lanza del relampago, demonic face, SLASH - the next page was AMAZING, foot on face, cero ready to take off his head! (Vegeta would be soooo proud. 'insert scene of Vegeta killing Burter & Recoome'
Ichigo vs Menos Grande was pretty epic too.:) He used to be very unexpirienced back then, but being able to withstand the attack and cut through the Cero into the Grande, making it act "Sorry for the inconvenience, i was just going back home, in fact..."
One of my favorite moments is when Ichigo arrives on the bridge with Rukia and Jushiro says something along the lines of, " this spiritual pressure it's obviously that of a captain but I don't recognize it"
I enjoy every moment of Ichigo just completely destroying his opponents or even brief overpowering them like with Byakuya. Some of the best moments are the entire Ichigo vs. Aizen fight, Ichigo beating 3 lieutenants, Ichigo fighting all the Sternritter in the second invasion, and some much more.
There is definitely alot goes to show how well written Ichigo is. By far my favorite was in the beginning when Ichigo recites Keisuke quote "when you protect somone, you dont let them die. And when you attack, you kill." The fight with Renji Ichigo was using his head and the animation with the details from the tremor in his hands to involuntary movement from his leg sheer adrenaline keeping him up, his eye blinking trying to focus after his body has been bleeding out. I love this early fight for these details.
imo when ichigo first showed up in front of rukia again and had everyone shook after they just discovered "aizen was killed" with the spiritual pressure of a captain
I like to think that the Mugestu form of Ichigo is his Vollständig, because he shares some physical features of Yhwach like the long hair, red eyes (in color manga) and that his legs are cover by viscous black substance like Yhwach after his absorption of the Soul king.
Ichigo defeating Ginjo is one of my favorites. He palms a cero ( reminiscent of his hollow self, absolutely badass), then slashes him across the chest in one go. I think that would've been it for the fight, but since Ginjo wasn't giving up, Ichigo had to put him down. No rage in his eyes, just protecting his loved ones from Ginjo's revenge. It's also a reminder that in a manga where people fight constantly, sometimes the protagonsit has to kill someone.
Great video! Ichigo has a ton of amazing moments, but I have to keep coming back to the first time he uses banki. Its one of the most iconic moments, not just in Bleach, but all of manga and anime! I relate it to the first time Goku achieves super sayian in Dragonball Z, whether thats a fair comparison or not in terms of iconic moments as a whole!
I can still remember reading back in august 2010 when ichigo facepalmed aizen. Post Dangai ichigo was ultimate and i can still hear my high pitched shriek about that facepalm, the anime didn't do it justice. however my favourite and more subtle favourite ichigo moment was him saying goodbye to orihime as his powers faded away. There was so much sadness and unsaid love there...
This was great, Ichigo really does have some bad ass moments, he’s such a great main character. Out of all the manga protags he’s still my favorite. No shortage of amazing scenes, growth, and forms for our boy Ichigo. Ichigo v Ulquiorra will always be my favorite Bleach moment but man it’s so hard to choose cause he has so many epic moments.
I think my favorite moment or in my case shot/panel was Ichigo's Face when He was dragging Zangetsu across Grimmjow's Arm. They really sold that look especially if you Know the What the Hueco Mundo Arc was About.
A lot of people are picking out when Ichigo first reveals his true zanpakuto as one of Ichigo’s most badass moments, and while I agree, I’d pick a moment that happens a little bit earlier when Ichigo instantly grabs the correct asauchi as soon as Oetsu stops explaining what he needs to do.
Just found your channel a few days ago. You're a pretty cool guy and you have some fantastic bleach knowledge. I'm hyped for the anime to come back and your videos are a nice way to fill the gap. Keep doing what you love man and thanks for the videos!
This is high quality content. You are producing art on the caliber of Tite Kubo. I came to your most recent video in hopes it's the most likely place you will actually read this. I appreciate your channel.
Another great video. So many characters you could do top 10 moments from the manga for which I would love to see in the future. Once again congratulations on passing 100K subs, Look forward to seeing you with the silver play button in the not too distant future. Well done on the 2k subs too since passing the 100k milestone. Keep up the great work Tommo.
One of mine had to be where he's getting absolutely demolished by grimmjow and is still hesitant about using his hollow power and doesn't want to frighten orihime but orihime shouts out to him that he can't die. So he finds his resolve and barehands grimmjows attack and then completely overpowers him.
If you wanna see some action. Gotta be the centre of attraction. Make sure that they got their eyes on you, like the face that you see on every magazine.
I’m so ready to see him listening to Byakuya’s request. I remember reading it the moment the chapter was released and feeling sad that byakuya was probably dead then Ichigo shows up determined. And byakuya of all people uncharacteristically is asking Ichigo to save the soul Society despite him always being arrogant and that going against his honor. It shows how much Ichigo had an affect on him throughout the series. Then Ichigo sitting there all dark and eerie looking with it raining(which is symbolic to Ichigo’s inner world imo). I can’t wait for that moment to be animated and your idea of how it should go in the anime is spot on. One more I would have put on here as at least an honorable mention is his last fight with Grimmjow where Oriheme tells him just don’t die. Then he turns around to Grimmjow and basically says “I’m sorry Grimmjow but I can’t lose” or something along those lines. It’s been a very long time so if I butchered that my bad lol
The transformation during Ulquiorra fight was the most powerful for me. That was a moment of elemental brutality. Earned by Ulquiorra every little bit.
Great list, I would have included Ichigo catching Grimmjows blade, and subsequently defeating him once he hears Orihimes plea. But other than that your list is what my list would have been!
Ichico’s fight with Kenpachi was always my favorite. One, because it introduced the ultimate chad of Zaraki but also because it was the first introduction to the capabilities of zanpakutos. And old man Zangetsu coming in to help him out.
... No The Blade is me... The Blade is me it's not here... Im sorry i have to take points from you dude, that moment is amazing, it's one of the best of the series. It doesn't have to be your number one, but it has to be here.
I loves Ichigo's arrival at the second invasion. From him fudging up the landing a bit and surprising the Quincy Girls, from his new robes that resembles Isshin's (which he should have kept in the Hell arc honestly) and his calm finesse-ing of all the Quincies jumping on him. He's not cocky, he's not at an unsurmountable advantage against all those numbers. He's calm, he's mature, he seems...fully realized after understanding that, him *being* the Blade means that he's in total control of his power, even more than the Dangai and Mugetsu forms. But a small moment I also like is from the fillers: his final, abrupt and kinda violent defeat of Kariya of the Bounts; and his speech to Kageroza at the end of the Regai arc, where he uses the "power of friendship" shonen trope in a completely logical way, by telling the friendship-hating Big Bad Kageroza that he couldn't have gotten anywhere without the trust and friendship that was present between him and the Reigais, therefore destroying his villain monologue and making him look goofy as a result.
Everytime I see Byakuya at the edge of death, it brings tears to my eyes The person who has worked the hardest to maintain peace and prosperity is brought down by fear and malignence. The Ichigo panel of him outlined by shadows absolutely kills me and yet it's one of the best moments in the entirety of Bleach

I also enjoyed his arrival at the 2nd invasion where he confidently takes on 4-8 sternritter with his first NEW TECHNIQUE SINCE MUGETSU
That 2nd invasion moment was so close to making it - I'm tempted to do a second version with another top 10 moments to be honest.

@@MrTommo2304 could you do another battle analysis please ? I love those videos especially the kisuke vs askin one

You've really got me back into Bleach and reminded me how cool it can be. Thanks for all your great videos :)
That's amazing, glad to hear it :)
Before watching, here are some of my favorites that come to mind :
"Give me the sword, Soul Reaper" and defeating Fishbone D.
Five Ambulances
Helping Ikkaku instead of letting him bleed out
Defeating Kenpachi
Showing up at Rukia's execution, laying out the three Vice Captains, and destroying the Sokyoku
'Last' conversation with Rukia after he's lost his powers and she's fading from his sight.
Dangai Ichigo and the Final Getsuga
I could probably count a lot of neat scenes with White or Hollow Ichigo, but those tend to be more reliant on things that aren't driven by Ichigo himself. Also having trouble recalling a lot of what he did that impressed upon me in the Hueco Mundo and Fake Karakura arcs.
Idk how 5 ambulances didn’t make this list. It’s the top Ichigo moment for me
During the Final Grimmjow fight, after Orehime told him not to die. Grimmjow rushed in for an attack, and Ichigo just catches his hand and tells Grimmjow the business. He turns that whole fight around.

This is an awesome list, well done
All the Soul Society moments still stick with me.
Ichigo getting "Zangetsu" for the first time crouching in that bad ass pose
Him drawing blood from Zaraki for the first time
Him rescung Rukia, spinning the blade form the cloth hilt destryoing the scaffold and taking down the three vice captains
Him releasing his bankai for the first time and when Byakuya insults him and tries to attack Ichigo but finds a sword next to his throat
The anime did a really cool job with this, where the petals does a layered wipe over to the next shot
Him slicing up all the petal blades.
Only after that I liked was the fights with Ulquiorra and Aizen but it didn't stick because of how one sided those fights were.
Nothing in TYBW stuck with me, only that final strike against Yhwach after Aizen distracted him was kinda cool.
Number 6 was an amazing moment and it's not like I wanted him to die, but I felt like it was a cop out when we found out Byakuya was alive
Congrats on reaching 100k, absolutely deserved. Jaymes Hanson has dropped pretty low in my eyes after he said that shit about you.
What did he say and where? Im afraid I must have missed it
What did he say
I know I was told Jay had a god complex but come on. He's just being overdramatic again like the time he got mad Bleach hub or jjk fanbase
@@DrCye he basically trashed Tommo, saying he's boring and that he's the Bleach guy and he can't take that away from him
Dangai Ichigo weaponized the facepalm with Aizen.
Personally my favorite moment has to be “the blade is me” when he forges the True Zangetsus. It’s just such an amazing moment in the manga.
#1 (I know you said manga, but there's something from the animation that makes this 1 special): Ichigo saving Rukia at the execution grounds; stops the Sokyoku, throws Rukia, demolishes 3 vice captains, of which 1st lieutenant for Genryusai. WHILE THE MUSIC WAS BLASTING IN THE BACKGROUND.
#2 Vaste Lorde Ichigo, when he BAREHANDED Ulquiorra's lanza del relampago, demonic face, SLASH - the next page was AMAZING, foot on face, cero ready to take off his head! (Vegeta would be soooo proud. 'insert scene of Vegeta killing Burter & Recoome'
Ichigo vs Menos Grande was pretty epic too.:) He used to be very unexpirienced back then, but being able to withstand the attack and cut through the Cero into the Grande, making it act "Sorry for the inconvenience, i was just going back home, in fact..."
One of my favorite moments is when Ichigo arrives on the bridge with Rukia and Jushiro says something along the lines of, " this spiritual pressure it's obviously that of a captain but I don't recognize it"
I enjoy every moment of Ichigo just completely destroying his opponents or even brief overpowering them like with Byakuya. Some of the best moments are the entire Ichigo vs. Aizen fight, Ichigo beating 3 lieutenants, Ichigo fighting all the Sternritter in the second invasion, and some much more.
Number 1 is playing in my head this entire video cause it’s easily the best part of any good ichigo moment
When he confronts ywach during the first invasion is my favorite. Never seen ichigo so serious and angry
There is definitely alot goes to show how well written Ichigo is. By far my favorite was in the beginning when Ichigo recites Keisuke quote "when you protect somone, you dont let them die. And when you attack, you kill." The fight with Renji Ichigo was using his head and the animation with the details from the tremor in his hands to involuntary movement from his leg sheer adrenaline keeping him up, his eye blinking trying to focus after his body has been bleeding out. I love this early fight for these details.
After a long, crappy work week it's nice to come home and see a new video from my favorite youtuber!
Seriously you could do a part 2 or even 3 with ichigo moments and still could be “best”
When ichigo reminds aizen that those with high spiritial pressure way higher than others cant be felt. Chefs kiss
imo when ichigo first showed up in front of rukia again and had everyone shook after they just discovered "aizen was killed" with the spiritual pressure of a captain
I like to think that the Mugestu form of Ichigo is his Vollständig, because he shares some physical features of Yhwach like the long hair, red eyes (in color manga) and that his legs are cover by viscous black substance like Yhwach after his absorption of the Soul king.
Ichigo defeating Ginjo is one of my favorites. He palms a cero ( reminiscent of his hollow self, absolutely badass), then slashes him across the chest in one go. I think that would've been it for the fight, but since Ginjo wasn't giving up, Ichigo had to put him down. No rage in his eyes, just protecting his loved ones from Ginjo's revenge. It's also a reminder that in a manga where people fight constantly, sometimes the protagonsit has to kill someone.
Great video! Ichigo has a ton of amazing moments, but I have to keep coming back to the first time he uses banki. Its one of the most iconic moments, not just in Bleach, but all of manga and anime! I relate it to the first time Goku achieves super sayian in Dragonball Z, whether thats a fair comparison or not in terms of iconic moments as a whole!
You did good Mrtommo. You did very good with this list. So glad to see Mugetsu ichigo as first place. My favorite design up there with super saiyan 1.
Ichigo saving Rukia from execution will always be the top Bleach moment for me. He also looked badass with that cloak! :D
The fact that Ichigo face-palming Aizen and absolutely yeeting him across the continent is FOURTH, really makes me question your ranking abilities...
When he saves Kenpachi is my personal favorite
Hell yeah, Shrieker's tongue is one of my favorite bleach moments in general. It was pure concentrated badassery.
One of my most favorite moments was Ichigo coming to terms with both Zangetsus in The Blade IS Me.
Ichigo giving Aizen that facepalm is probably #1 for me; I HOLLERED.
I can still remember reading back in august 2010 when ichigo facepalmed aizen. Post Dangai ichigo was ultimate and i can still hear my high pitched shriek about that facepalm, the anime didn't do it justice.
however my favourite and more subtle favourite ichigo moment was him saying goodbye to orihime as his powers faded away. There was so much sadness and unsaid love there...
This was great, Ichigo really does have some bad ass moments, he’s such a great main character. Out of all the manga protags he’s still my favorite. No shortage of amazing scenes, growth, and forms for our boy Ichigo. Ichigo v Ulquiorra will always be my favorite Bleach moment but man it’s so hard to choose cause he has so many epic moments.
I love seeing his eyes turn a greyish color before doing something epic!!
I think my favorite moment or in my case shot/panel was Ichigo's Face when He was dragging Zangetsu across Grimmjow's Arm.
They really sold that look especially if you Know the What the Hueco Mundo
Arc was About.
I think the moment where he cals zangetsu for the first time especially in the anime was so epic i watvhed it more than once
The music that was playing up to Ichigo using his Bankai for the first time in the anime was done so well and I will always remember it
A lot of people are picking out when Ichigo first reveals his true zanpakuto as one of Ichigo’s most badass moments, and while I agree, I’d pick a moment that happens a little bit earlier when Ichigo instantly grabs the correct asauchi as soon as Oetsu stops explaining what he needs to do.
One of my favorites is when he catches aizens sword. Aizens look off disbelief is priceless
Ichigo counting the five thugs then calling an ambulance for them befor he fights them is 100% at least an honourable mention
Just found your channel a few days ago. You're a pretty cool guy and you have some fantastic bleach knowledge. I'm hyped for the anime to come back and your videos are a nice way to fill the gap. Keep doing what you love man and thanks for the videos!
Hey! Sorry for the late reply but thanks for the kind comment, I really appreciate it.
Ichigo vs Byakuya is the one fight is comeback to most frequently. its phenomenal fight scene.
Lol. That picture of Aizen's face being grabbed was Ichigo telling him, " Talk to the hand."
This is high quality content. You are producing art on the caliber of Tite Kubo. I came to your most recent video in hopes it's the most likely place you will actually read this. I appreciate your channel.
My Friday got better really quick!
Of course you cannot forget iconic ost anime has during these epic moments ❤❤❤
Dear Mr. Tommo,
“When will we hear about your shinigami powers, squad, and overall role in the Soul Society? Keep up the GREAT WORK!!!”🔥✊🏾👺
Another great video. So many characters you could do top 10 moments from the manga for which I would love to see in the future. Once again congratulations on passing 100K subs, Look forward to seeing you with the silver play button in the not too distant future. Well done on the 2k subs too since passing the 100k milestone. Keep up the great work Tommo.
Thanks Roach!
I was actually thinking abt this type of vid and how good u would do it
Amazing
One of mine had to be where he's getting absolutely demolished by grimmjow and is still hesitant about using his hollow power and doesn't want to frighten orihime but orihime shouts out to him that he can't die. So he finds his resolve and barehands grimmjows attack and then completely overpowers him.
If you wanna see some action. Gotta be the centre of attraction. Make sure that they got their eyes on you, like the face that you see on every magazine.
I’m so ready to see him listening to Byakuya’s request. I remember reading it the moment the chapter was released and feeling sad that byakuya was probably dead then Ichigo shows up determined. And byakuya of all people uncharacteristically is asking Ichigo to save the soul Society despite him always being arrogant and that going against his honor. It shows how much Ichigo had an affect on him throughout the series. Then Ichigo sitting there all dark and eerie looking with it raining(which is symbolic to Ichigo’s inner world imo). I can’t wait for that moment to be animated and your idea of how it should go in the anime is spot on. One more I would have put on here as at least an honorable mention is his last fight with Grimmjow where Oriheme tells him just don’t die. Then he turns around to Grimmjow and basically says “I’m sorry Grimmjow but I can’t lose” or something along those lines. It’s been a very long time so if I butchered that my bad lol
You should make a video on your top 10 epic moments in Bleach. I would love to see that video.
20:25 can you imagine if they decided to execute Rukia with Yamamoto’s Bankai instead 😂 (knowing what we know now)
I still get tears in my eyes seeing #6 Byakuya crushed in the wall and talking to Ichigo.
This scene is masterfully done.
My top 5:
1. Aizen
2. Yhwach
3. Ichigo
4. Shunsui
5. Starrk
an awesome list, I agree with all the moments you described
one of my favorite epic Ichigo moments; his final battle with Grimmjow
The transformation during Ulquiorra fight was the most powerful for me. That was a moment of elemental brutality. Earned by Ulquiorra every little bit.
Great list, I would have included Ichigo catching Grimmjows blade, and subsequently defeating him once he hears Orihimes plea. But other than that your list is what my list would have been!
Ichico’s fight with Kenpachi was always my favorite. One, because it introduced the ultimate chad of Zaraki but also because it was the first introduction to the capabilities of zanpakutos. And old man Zangetsu coming in to help him out.
... No The Blade is me... The Blade is me it's not here... Im sorry i have to take points from you dude, that moment is amazing, it's one of the best of the series. It doesn't have to be your number one, but it has to be here.
Honestly, Ichigo arriving the first time would be second for me.
Aside from that, great list!
I really like how you describe all that phenomenal moments of Bleach just the explanation and how you describe them perfect
I loves Ichigo's arrival at the second invasion. From him fudging up the landing a bit and surprising the Quincy Girls, from his new robes that resembles Isshin's (which he should have kept in the Hell arc honestly) and his calm finesse-ing of all the Quincies jumping on him. He's not cocky, he's not at an unsurmountable advantage against all those numbers. He's calm, he's mature, he seems...fully realized after understanding that, him *being* the Blade means that he's in total control of his power, even more than the Dangai and Mugetsu forms.
But a small moment I also like is from the fillers: his final, abrupt and kinda violent defeat of Kariya of the Bounts; and his speech to Kageroza at the end of the Regai arc, where he uses the "power of friendship" shonen trope in a completely logical way, by telling the friendship-hating Big Bad Kageroza that he couldn't have gotten anywhere without the trust and friendship that was present between him and the Reigais, therefore destroying his villain monologue and making him look goofy as a result.
Everytime I see Byakuya at the edge of death, it brings tears to my eyes
The person who has worked the hardest to maintain peace and prosperity is brought down by fear and malignence. The Ichigo panel of him outlined by shadows absolutely kills me and yet it's one of the best moments in the entirety of Bleach
Ichigo arriving when he get both zangetsus vs tha bambis is dope too. Him doing his new getsuga against them and pretty much playing with them
For me it’s when Old man puts his hand on Ichigos shoulder and asks if he trusts him. That always gives me goosebumps
A slept on moment is when he refuses to yield against Ulqiorra on top of los noches canopy, right before he uses segunda etapa
or like that one piano song they do while byakuga thinks back on his life abruptly replaced with rain sounds and their dialogue then lightning
Ichigo's first bankai scene is one of my bets^^
Fun idea. Top 10 best Kubo art moments in Bleach. Highlighting some of his best artistic moments he flexes.
Great video as always!
I'm challenging you to do an analysis video on Isane Kotetsu
Sorry grimmjow scene would be in my list but very good video as always
Any moment where "Number One" plays in the anime haha
As always great video! I would have swapped the 2nd and 3rd place but I totally agree with every other placement
Totally agree with the pics 💕👌
