I remember watching this episode for the first time about two years ago thinking chad might’ve had a chance because he was apart of the main character squad, despite knowing the captain was obviously stronger. Then I found out the captain was strong enough to kill the primera espada without even using Bankai
Yeah but he stated if Chad had hit him it could have been really bad for him. Makes you wonder how weak Shunsui actually is if Chad can deliver a possible lethal blow. x,D
@@HansPeter-iv9ck hes lying some of the writing here is treated like no future plans were made yet, so its just the standard anime line for a vastly inferior foe Chad couldn't hurt Shunsui even if he were dead
@@BlackChapters Kubo did indeed plan the story far ahead. Best example would be Ichigos father and the reveal of him being a captain and his backstory. Another example would be White. Sure Shunsui is a very laid back person but keep in mind he did draw his swords against a human. The very same human he could have killed with his bare hands or even Kido. So he was serious when he said Chad could hurt him otherwise he wouldnt draw his swords. So yes he does pointless stuff but he never does stuff not neccessary. Hell he didnt even want to fight Starrk because he knew Starrk does not really wanna fight aswell. Kinda ironoc now that i thing about it. The guy who does most of the pointless stuff is the one only doing whats really needed....damn what a paradox.
So incredibly unlucky to be faced off with one of the strongest Captains…. And yet, so fortunate that he got the Captain who’s the most passive, merciful and easy going in regards to his responsibilities….

I guessed Ukitake and Shunsui ..reserved Inchigo Kurosaki name as new captain 10...replacing Toshiro.......and finding a way that Inchigo able to skip the Vice captain...level....cuz his dad Isshin was Captain 10 before Toshiro
I remember Yourichi saying “Don’t worry. He’ll be fine. Chad is lucky he faced that Captain.” Loool I didn’t get what she meant until we found out who Kyourku actually is. Anyone else would have killed him 😂
Ukitake would also have been a decent pick if he wasn't so damn sickly. The guy calls other captains by their first names and actually takes time to get to know his subordinates. He's also very honorable. In fact, those 2 and maybe current unohana wouldve been great picks.

Rewatching this arc and realised Shunsui really was the perfect choice for captain commander of the Gotei 13. The way he handled everything he came across during this arc was perfect, and had all the characteristics of a great leader. He might not be as powerful as Yamaji was, but he's a much better leader for sure.
If I ask you the same question but for Frieza and let's say in place of Chad is Raditz do you think the numbers is going to make a difference? When you are so strong you are one shouting every single Chad bro😂😂😂
Back in the day where I was thinking maybe Chad has a chance at beating him since ichigo and uryu beated kenpachi/mayuri at this point until i realize later on as the series went on that not only is Koryaku a future head captain far stronger then chad but chad just simply lost every single fight hes ever been in except at least 1.. I miss those times where I didn't know who shunsui was and thought Chad was strong
@@unknownuser4816 well Ishida had his spotlight in every arc. Especially TYBW for obvious reasons. Orihime technically has feats, but she never seems to be more than a plot device. Chad.. is just tragic. Even in an arc where he gets a big power boost, he jobs 5 seconds after getting a minor W.
In his favor, Chad was close to like lieutenant level at this point. He probably would have lost to the big ones, like Kira, Hisagi etc But others like Momo, would have lost against Chad. Dude was a powerhouse.
Nobody sleep on chad for even the attempt to take on shunsui. Dude is a monster without even weilding his shikai, chad was brave to face him in battle.
@@mictianfollower2644 this point chad can take a 3rd seat (admittedly a retarded one but) an LT is around x5 stronger and a Captain x10 the LT. SO x50 plus its a duelie so make it x55 to be safe. Chad getting in a sneak attack at end of bringer arc MIGHT have hurt him.
I love how he is so casual and has no hard feelings towards anyone, even in battle. He has no ego, as if he realises that nothing is significant and this world is a stage and we are all actors here.
A samurai in truest form, he was not in danger from chad and tried to resolve the matter with a diplomacy check. When accosted by the human instead of one shoting him he allowed Chad to see how outmatched he was and allowed him again to withdraw. Chad finally soent was defeated by one non fatal blow because of his genteel nature and willingness to get info without a ton of torture.
All that while probably thinking "Ah, I miss that youthful, reckless energy" Then he proceeds to teach the young man a lesson he learned as he became an older man.
By shunsui's first appearance i thought he might be a weak guy and assumed chad might defeat him, later i got know that he is strongest captain in bleach💀🥶
Not the strongest. Yama, Aizen, Unohana and arguably Gin are stronger. When he became Head Captain, Kenpachi, Byakuya and arguably Toshiro were stronger.
@@SunlightGwynat this stage nobody except Yamamoto is stronger than shunsui In tybw only Aizen and yama is stronger than shunsui And in cfyow shunsui is most likely the strongest
@@tabibhassan3376 Aizen literally defeated Shunsui in base along with Soifon, Toshiro, Rose, Love, Lisa and Komamura at the same time. Aizen is way stronger than Shunsui. Yamamoto and Aizen are the strongest and distant third place is Unohana then Shunsui and Gin are fourth and fifth strongest.
Keep in mind throughout the story Shunsui didn’t get a power boost. The power he has here is the same power he had when he faced Lille. Chad was f*cked before the fight even began
I always thought shunsui was supposed to be the Jiraiya or Roshi But what his character was set up is just insanely good and makes sense at the end of the day...
Shunsui cannot beat all of the Espada at once. Only Aizen and Yama could do that. Shunsui would need Bankai just to beat Stark in a one on one fight. He needed 3 other Captains to defeat Stark with his Shikai. Shunsui could win against any individual Espada member with his Bankai though.
Idk, byakuya might not have, in ordet to follow orders to detain them for questioning. Depends on circumstances, I dont think they instructed anyone to kill the ryoka but I dont remember. The wolf dude might have recognized his valor for stepping up to the challenge and might have let him go as well tho truly we can only speculate
Still remember seeing this way back in the day and thinking Chad had a chance 😂 little did I know how he got one of the strongest people in the whole show to face.
Reading this for the first time in the manga I just had a feeling shunsui was gonna be insanely strong in comparison to the other captains they had introduced at that point
In Chad's defense, he's probably the single strongest human in the series. He bested a Privaron Espada before he even trained with Xcution. None of the Xcution members were capable of that feat before stealing Ichigo's powers.
Still remember watching this initially and thinking "ok, he's a captain so he's obviously stronger but I think Chad can put up a fight.. at least survive." LMAO bro got unlucky fighting the king but also lucky fighting a kind king at the same time lol.
Shunsui drew his swords assign of respect, because Chad said he was trying to save Rukia because Ichigo wanted to. That's the point where Shunsui stopped trying to get Chad to run sway.
The closest character I can think of, in terms of personality and status, is Admiral Aokiji in One piece. Both are very merciful and kind to their enemies. Imagine if Chad faced Kenpanchi (more like Akainu) or Gin (more like Kizaru). The only difference is that Aokiji is not the strongest among admirals while Shunsui is actually strongest captain after Yamamoto.
There's actually not that many Captains that would have killed Chad. Soifon, Zaraki and Mayuri would kill him but Yamamoto has shown mercy on weak opponents like with the Tres Bestia Fraccions of Harribel. Gin probably wouldn't kill him, he would just do enough damage to take him out of the fight. Same with Aizen, Byakuya, Komamura, Kaname, Toshiro, and Ukitake. Unohana wouldn't even fight him unless he defeated Isane. And she would probably use some Kido to take him out without killing him.
If only Chad knew, he was with the one captain who he can talk it out without fighting and he could possibly help them right there if he can plead his case well.
The first time I was watching this battle I was like : Chad can do this. If everyone could I don't see why not him. Then as I continued the series I realized that he didn't have a chance 😅
How? He beat Lille in his volstandig, that form afterwards was a soul king ywach upgrade. Lille lost in his volstandig, if anything plot saved him with that random owl form after his neck was cut. Lille in his base form beat 0 squad members. I mean it really isn’t a deus ex machina, from the start of the series nanao walked around without a zanpaktou, there is a background for it since the ss arc.
I mean you battle against future captain commander.The only weakness Shunsui have is he have normal body comapare to Unohana or yamamoto or zaraki where all of them have very tough body.
When I first watched this Shinsui I thought Chad maybe deafeted him in this battle but after I watched bleach I realized that Chad actually had 0 chance against Shinsui because Shinsui was Goat💓🔥
On the side note, ukitake, unohana, and kenpachi probably wouldn't of killed him either. Kenpachi doesn't like killing weak opponents or defeated ones and unohanas orders are only to heal.
I think Shunsui and Chad are very alike. Both dont really like fighting but do it if they have to you can even see that in the expressions. There is no real anger in Chad for Shunsui and vise versa.
They are, but Shunsui is still more than that: he never hesitates to resort to dirty tricks when the situations demand it or when he feels like it...Chad probably can't be as tricky as him at that regard.
His entrance was so smooth, but you cut out the best part of it when he yelled for Nanao to stop throwing the petals. Then she tossed the plate down at his head 😂
Crazy how Kyoraku beat up stark (the 1th espada) without using his bankai and wasa barely going all out and Ukitake prevented him to use it, because it would have killed his people around him.
When i first watch Bleach as a kid I used to hate Shunsui probably because of his pink outfit and because he seemed boring to watch but years laters now as an adult he’s one of my favorite Captains in Bleach he kinda gives me Jiraya vibes sometimes.
@@mictianfollower2644 Not to be rude to chad, dude is pretty strong, I think he could definitely take on quite a few lieutenants but hes got no chance against a captain especially not one like shunsui, that dude is nutty. Didnt even need a bankai to defeat the number 1 espada.

Kyoraku using two Katanas against Chad but didn't want to use it against Stark👀
Shunsui drew his swords assign of respect, because Chad said he was trying to save Rukia because Ichigo wanted to. That's the point where Shunsui stopped trying to get Chad to run sway.
@@Wesker349 yeah he tries anything to get chad to just turn back but chad refuses and so shunsui takes it easy on him since he respects him
Gotta love how Chad's whole deal is just straight running up to people and trying to punch them. Yeah, that really works out for you, huh?
The closest character I can think of, in terms of personality and status, is Admiral Aokiji in One piece. Both are very merciful and kind to their enemies. Imagine if Chad faced Kenpanchi (more like Akainu) or Gin (more like Kizaru). The only difference is that Aokiji is not the strongest among admirals while Shunsui is actually strongest captain after Yamamoto.
The sound design for the Soul Society Arc was on point!
Chad’s screams were so intense that he didn’t even need to open his mouth.
The thing I like about this fight is how shunsui Commemorates Chad
i can’t imagine chad ever losing
Especially against Kyoruku
@@amineelfardi4311 stop trolling
Oh sarcasm lol
@@asimhussain8716 yeah he beats all the espadas ass like nothing and got the soul king arm at the end of the series
Chad: “UUUUAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!”
Chad’s face: 🗿
A captain so strong he had to wait for the final arc of the series before trying.
Chad never loses,
he just doesn't want to win.
Chad is the character of all time.
Chad needs to transform into a gigachad to defeat him
Me and my sister tripped seeing this for the first time😂 nga took so many Ls we said that we should start a charity called “feel bad for Chad”😂
What?! I couldn't even imagine Chad losing!
Chad is extremely lucky Shunsui liked him and didn't really want to fight him. He was so hopelessly outclassed here.
Chad was so lucky to have faced Shunsui.
There's actually not that many Captains that would have killed Chad.
Soifon, Zaraki and Mayuri would kill him but Yamamoto has shown mercy on weak opponents like with the Tres Bestia Fraccions of Harribel. Gin probably wouldn't kill him, he would just do enough damage to take him out of the fight. Same with Aizen, Byakuya, Komamura, Kaname, Toshiro, and Ukitake. Unohana wouldn't even fight him unless he defeated Isane. And she would probably use some Kido to take him out without killing him.
If only Chad knew, he was with the one captain who he can talk it out without fighting and he could possibly help them right there if he can plead his case well.

Look at him now throwing punches to Ywabach what a CHAD
The first time I was watching this battle I was like : Chad can do this. If everyone could I don't see why not him. Then as I continued the series I realized that he didn't have a chance 😅
To be fair to Chad, Shunsui was able to take on Lille, he stood no chance at all.
Only because of that dumb stupid plot blade.
@@quitepossiblylucky lol no
@@RikkiTikkiTavi290He’s right. Liili Barro is way stronger than Shunsui and only a deux ex Machina blade from Nanao saved him.
How? He beat Lille in his volstandig, that form afterwards was a soul king ywach upgrade. Lille lost in his volstandig, if anything plot saved him with that random owl form after his neck was cut. Lille in his base form beat 0 squad members. I mean it really isn’t a deus ex machina, from the start of the series nanao walked around without a zanpaktou, there is a background for it since the ss arc.
@@quitepossiblylucky
He had used Bankai before Nanao used her sword, and he bullied V1 Lille with it
Let’s be glad ichigo didn’t run into shunsia instead of byakuya
He ran into Aizen so I'd say that's worse 😅
peter drury : "He was head captain material from day 1"
What happens when your level 5 going against the end boss...
I mean you battle against future captain commander.The only weakness Shunsui have is he have normal body comapare to Unohana or yamamoto or zaraki where all of them have very tough body.
normal body? the man got turned into swiss cheese by Lille and still was fast enough to dodge his attacks. His endurance is captain-commander worthy.
Chad was extremely lucky Kyoraku is a chill guy if it was Yamamoto he'd be vaporized in an instant.
Nope
@@yirmiyahu7265 Yamamoto would have kill the guy on the spot
@@stevencontreras84 cap
@@llamathecooldude691 yes chad can't stand reiatsu of yamaji
@@stevencontreras84 doubt Yamamoto would…have killed him
Chad never even had a shadow of a hope of a chance.
Shinsui didn't even go shikai mode. Lmao respect.
Chad found the strongest captain, but lucky he’s a kind one
This is the Bleach equivalent of Zoro vs. Mihawk., but it took us much longer to appreciate just how big the gap really was.
Perfect analogy lmao.
1:32 the end card is blocking the subtitles.
This is a deleted scene from the anime where Chad actually loses. Usually, it is unimaginable for him to lose.
When I first watched this Shinsui I thought Chad maybe deafeted him in this battle but after I watched bleach I realized that Chad actually had 0 chance against Shinsui because Shinsui was Goat💓🔥
Tammmmnnnn, Chad knows how to safely roll avoiding too much damage to himself
nostalgic, I kinda hated kyouraku back then. But I love the most now.
Reverse for me, a bit.
Ichigo: I can never imagined chad loosing
On the side note, ukitake, unohana, and kenpachi probably wouldn't of killed him either. Kenpachi doesn't like killing weak opponents or defeated ones and unohanas orders are only to heal.
This fight was shocking. I couldn't imagine Chad losing.
I think Shunsui and Chad are very alike. Both dont really like fighting but do it if they have to you can even see that in the expressions. There is no real anger in Chad for Shunsui and vise versa.
They are, but Shunsui is still more than that: he never hesitates to resort to dirty tricks when the situations demand it or when he feels like it...Chad probably can't be as tricky as him at that regard.
Even Ichigo could not stand à chance against Shunsui, how many times Chad😂😂😂
Chad encounters GigaChad
"I can't imagine Chad ever losing"
The weakest guy there encounters the strongest captain there 💀
I don't think he was the weakest there.
@@Thefix12_ guy there yea he aint stronger than ichigo or uryu
@@vegito1087 orihime was weaer
@@vegito1087 oh
@@Thefix12_ i said guy xD
His entrance was so smooth, but you cut out the best part of it when he yelled for Nanao to stop throwing the petals. Then she tossed the plate down at his head 😂
Y'all still remember... somehow Chad could defeat Shusui 🤣
The one time Chad spared his opponent by playing weak...
Crazy how Kyoraku beat up stark (the 1th espada) without using his bankai and wasa barely going all out and Ukitake prevented him to use it, because it would have killed his people around him.
When i first watch Bleach as a kid I used to hate Shunsui probably because of his pink outfit and because he seemed boring to watch but years laters now as an adult he’s one of my favorite Captains in Bleach he kinda gives me Jiraya vibes sometimes.
Always felt that Chad was undeveloped in the series...
He faced the strongest captain of gotei 13. After old man Yama of course
Chad honestly would've had a better chance if he took Shunsui up on his drinking offer and talked things over.
bruh he didn't have to use his shikai
I mean he woul the whole ichigo squad in base in this arc
he use asauchi mode
That’s not even shikai mode
He can lie down and use only one finger to kill chad
@@mictianfollower2644 Not to be rude to chad, dude is pretty strong, I think he could definitely take on quite a few lieutenants but hes got no chance against a captain especially not one like shunsui, that dude is nutty. Didnt even need a bankai to defeat the number 1 espada.
