Coyote Starrk aspect of death he represented was loneliness...the fact his arrancar transformation removed his loneliness by creating Lillynette is kinda beautiful ! A lone wolf becoming a pack of wolf. When he lost her again, it was really tragic, coming back to that state of loneliness. I believe it was the real moment he lost...however incredibly powerful Shunsui was.
You guys completely missed what Aizen was talking about. When he said "You failed, mock, arrancars." he was referring to the Visoreds. Shinji, Lisa, Love, etc. He was basically saying he was going to take on the 13 court guard squads and the Visoreds by himself.
7:01 , 7:20 Shunsui’s swords basically enforces the rules of a game into reality, forcing anyone caught up in it to follow them and play, meaning that Shunsui isn’t the only one who can use his techniques, his opponents can also use them as they want since it wouldn’t be a fair “game” otherwise……
When he said failed mock Arrancars... he was talking to the Vaizards/Visoreds... They were technically the initial Arrancars he considered failures since they couldn't control themselves after transforming the 1st time...
I bet Shunsui really hated having to kill Stark and Lilynette off like that, since it's war you gotta follow orders. But you can see how sad he looked the moment he killed Stark.
People love getting Stark too much shit for getting defeated by Shunsui's Shikai but Shunsui is a beast. At this point in time he is top 3 strongest captains and his shikais is mad op if you think about it, its literally a limited reality bending gimmick. Honestly Shunsui's shikai alone is stronger than some bankais out there
Starrk just got the worst matchup possible. He’s already ill suited for fighting because of his personality, he ended up fighting Shunsui who also doesn’t enjoy fighting but is fully willing to fight dirty, and then he loses Lilynette? Dude just got screwed.
I don't give him shit for losing to a shikai. If anything I like that super saiyan isn't always the solution, that sometimes correct applications of smaller ideas are more than enough or possibly even superior than applying Hitsugaya tactics (for a prodigy the kid's an idiot lol). I blame Stark for betraying my expectations in full. The first menos grande of the series was more intimidating. He is a definitive example of tell don't show, because the only reason you have to believe he's a big deal is because everybody says he is, meanwhile nothing seen supports that claim at all. To be fair that applies to most of the Vizard as well, only Shinji and Hachigen put up, the rest are effectively puddies.
@@Reshapable right, lets act like starrk wasnt fighting on par with 2 of the strongest captains then proceeded to easily beat 2 other captains and then only lost because of a cheap attack, definitely didnt show anything...
What's crazy about stark is that he underwent arrancar transformation naturally. Aizen didn't modify him at all when he joined. His natural strength put him at number 1.
Tier Harribel...the aspect of death she represented was sacrifice...As long as her comrade were safe, the rest didn't matter to her. Her loyalty and honnor was her greatest strenght and weakness at the end. The moment Aizen got rid of her after all she sacrificed for him, that really hit like a truck ! You really see what Aizen thinks of other after that...a means to an end !
I think Aizen took out halibel because he thought if number 1 and 2 got defeated, there was no way number 3 would do shit against them. That's why he got rid of her quickly. He basically said, "let's turn up the pacing in this show".😂
Spoiler: I like to think that Aizen actually saved her, think about it, she would have died if she continued her fight, so he slashed her and let her live for some reason, no one attacked her after that and that's why she is still alive, he knew from the start that none of them was going to kill a captain, he sees them as inferior to shinigamis after all, idk it's just that part doesn't make sense, if he wanted to kill her he would have cut her in half or some shit. Still I cant6 fully aupport this theory cause i don't have a real reason for him to save her and i haven't read the manga yet so.
@@nousabully9324 *Spoilers:* I mean when Aizen was defeated it was stated that he felt lonely and that in the end it might’ve been that he lost because he lost the will to retain his powers. If that’s the case, then he might’ve gotten tired of betraying those close to him. Despite how he used everyone around him it’s kind of implied he cared about them at least slightly through that revelation but still went through with his plans. He didn’t want to be lonely that’s why he (potentially) lost his powers but that conflicted with his plan. Every other time he chose his plan over not killing/injuring former comrades except for when it came to Ichigo. It might’ve been that Aizen was more attached to him since he viewed him as his creation or maybe he saw that as his last chance out before he truly became a god and ruled everything in complete loneliness. Who knows, this is all conjecture as pretty much nothing is known about Aizen’s true character or motivations so we can only guess based off hints dropped but that’s why I’d say he spared Harribel and pretty much everyone else too.
In the end Aizen saved her if he didn't take her out of the fight she would eventually died. Some critics complain about how characters survive critical wounds in Bleach. But forget their supernatural beings that can take a ton of damage.
Stark was the only natural arrancar we’ve seen so far, and it’s so sad the had to die. He was already an arrancar when Aizen arrived. Shame he never met the other Vasto Lordes before then.
Shunsui vs Stark is a definitive battle IQ fight. Stark is strong, but Shunsui baited out his abilities, exposed his weaknesses then feinted him by giving away the game rules. Story short, Shunsui finessed Stark right outta the sky.
What's crazy is that Shunsui is not obligated to let his enemies know what games they're playing. He could've left Stark in the dark about his shikai ability.
I wonder if Shunsui gets the first hit of some games, but others he has to explain to continue to use them. Takeoni and Kageoni he can use because they are very simple. But the color one, Iro oni I think, needs to be explained eventually to keep the game interesting enough for his Zanpaktou to continue to work with him. He can't even start fighting like this until his swords cooperate. Unless it is explained in detail later and I forgot
Kyoraku is much more dangerous than he looks. He's both very perceptive and skillfull. He's very good at getting under his opponent's skin and choosing the right time to strike. He understood that he couldn't defeat Starrk one-on-one, since he easily kept him and Ukitake at distance. And so he went for the back when Starrk was distracted fighting visoreds.
He is very cunning person despite he looks Which matches his shikai ability, when placed under the same fair rules of the game, the one who is more resourceful, cunning, skillful, perceptive wins the game
That wasn’t the case at all. His swords just didn’t want to start playing as he said. He would have beaten stark in exactly the same way had he not stabbed him from behind. That was just to save love and rose from the finishing blow. There’s no world where stark and the wolves would have won against shunsuis shikai powers once they decided to start the games up.
Starrk is the one character in Bleach, I think, that when he died, I was truly truly sad for. I feel so sad for this man and his little sidekick. They're the only ones who seem like really good people among the Arrancar. the tragedy of his whole existence! He's a wolf, so a pack animal, but he can't have the pack. Even with the Espada, he ends up getting the number one position, clearly a position he never wanted, because he doesn't want to be the strongest--unlike so many other Espada who fight tooth and nail for just one rank more... And Aizen never cared about him or the other Espada... With Starrk, I can't help but feel that in any other situation, he could've befriended the likes of our main characters. He wants comrades, and there were so many potential comrades around, but the one strong guy who offered him his hand was Aizen who just aimed to use him.
Starkk is my second favorite Espada. Its just sad that he died 😢 I really think that him and Kyoraku could have been good friends... Lazy guys doing lazy things
It's funny, if you stop and think about it, Aizen kind of _saved_ Hallibel. After all, if she'd kept fighting Hitsugya, Lisa, and Hiyori, how would that fight have ended? Eventually, they would've killed her, or another Captain would've joined in on the fight and _they'd_ have killed her. Regardless, she'd have been overwhelmed and died. Either way, Aizen wounded her enough to take her out of the fight, and yet not enough to kill her. After all, we saw her again in the new arc, so obviously she survived his slash... so yeah, in a way, he saved her from a losing fight.
Ok so first Aizen needed time to complete his fusion with the Hogyoku and second come on who would want to take 10+ guys all on his own? I mean Aizen *can* defeat all of them on his own but it doesn't mean he would want to do all the work himself lmao he was hoping at least these Espada could take one or two of them and for the most part they almost did. Barragan almost killed Soi Fong and Stark was going for the two Vizored ex-captains and may have delt the finishing blow on Ukitake since he was wounded in the ground.
And everyone else on the battlefield. Because his shikai is about games in reality. Now Times that reality breaking shikai and you have a very dangerous bankai for enemies and allies
He can't use it around allies because they would get caught in the effect. I won't spoil what this effect is, but that would be VERY bad for the other captains and lieutenants in the city.
1) Stark just had a terrible opponent. There are some shinigami whose powers are just pure hax--such as Aizen, Shunsui and Urahara--that pretty much mean a certain loss if they hit you, even if you have a ridiculous amount of raw power. He would have pulverized any of the other captains in the top three battles. Ironically, Stark and Shunsui would likely have been drinking buddies if they weren't stuck on opposite sides of the war. 2) Harribel has a lot of strange similarities with Ichigo, and they would actually likely get along pretty well. Both use greatswords that fire energy blasts on swing, travel around with three weaker allies that they are very protective over (Chad, Ishida, and Orihime vs tres bestes), try not to kill their opponents unless it's necessary, and have the tendency to throw themselves into battles to help others, even if it means sacrificing themselves. It's a personality characteristic that isn't exactly great for their health. FYI. When Aizen says "mock arrancar" he is referring to the Vizard. Listen to what he said again--he was saying that he is stronger than the combined forces of the captains and "mock arrancar" not that he was using mock arrancar prior to that.
The big problem with the TOP 3 Arrancar fights is that: 1 - They are not the protagonists, as Ichigo is the protagonist, the other Arrancars benefited from this, having their fights more embellished. Nnoitra was number 5, and didn't prove to be stronger than Grimmjow, his fight against Kenpachi was much more contained than Ichigo Vs Grimmjow, that's because the protagonist's fights are better worked. Ichigo's fights are all about raw power, while the other characters battles have more strategy and hax abilities. 2 - Kubo didn't want to kill any of the good guys, so the top 3 Arrancars were playing most of the time. Halibel, Stark and Barragan never got to fight seriously. Halibel could have killed Hitsugaya easily, but the two were playing "Your attack does this? Well, mine does that" and repeated this the entire battle. Barragan stood by, watching his enemies do everything they wanted, and Stark had no will to fight. Kubo failed a lot in this, the TOP 3 Arrancars turned out to be a disappointment, even though we know they are strong as fuck, because the script says so, but we didn't get see their full capacity.
I love stark but always feel that he was poorly done in terms of ability. Felt his reveal while cool looking is also underwhelming and not up to his lvl as a primera.
Aizen genuinely thought that the top 3 Espada could beat the Gotei 13 for him and didn't need to bother fighting. After Starkk was killed, it made Aizen realize that they couldn't
@@ArlanKels Not really tho, Barragan could've very easily taken a captain or two on his own if the Kido commander wasn't there. Stark nearly killed the two Vizored ex-captains on his own before Shunsui stepped up and Halibel was fighting a captain and two Vizored liutenants. If the circuntances were different they would've done a lot more damage to the Gotei 13 and Aizen wouldn't need to solo everyone
i still find it odd how shunsui beat stark, he used oni black and went for the hole, but that's not a tattoo that's his hollow hole, it wouldn't bother me except kenpachi stabbed nnoitora through his hollow hole and did no damage. the black void we see shouldn't be tangible. It's just odd to me
Failed mock Arrancars, remember that they are not Arrancars...they are Vizoreds. They have limitations for how long they can fight in their hollowfied form, they are failures at creating the ultimate weapons. Basically consider the Espada to be failed true Arrancars, while the Vizoreds are failed mock Arrancars. It could be said that at this point, the only successful true Arrancar could be considered Vasto Lorde Ichigo!
People be clowning on stark for losing 'easily' without thinking that he was fighting Shunsui. MF said that Hitsugaya would surpass him in a 100 years, and Hitsugaya was busted in tybw arc that was just 2 or 3 years from this battle. Shunsui defeated him without using his bankai, this was Shunsui's winning with ease not Stark being any less strong than the likes of Ulquiora or Grimmjow. It's just because this fight wasn't flashy like the other ones people think stark was weak.
@@johnathanera5863 yeah i was wrong there. The battle was tough for a shikai state Shunsui but he wasn't too worried for his life either because he knew he still had a Trump card.
@@TheReaIestOne eh. Yes and no. If he used his bankai he would kill some of his allies. His bankai is an AOE that will attack anyone In its vacinity. So while yes, he did have bankai up his sleeve, in this scenario its honestly a bit of a liability. But yeah, HIS life was in no danger. His bankai would handle stark no problem. Unfortunately it would ALSO handle any allies in the vacinity.
I aways wonder what would happen if some "good" shinigami found stark before aizen, Someone able to resist his power, I wonder if he would be on the "right" side of history and stay alive. I also wonder what it would be like if the fight with Shunsui had a peaceful course
The vizards are the true version of an aranncar as the are two races combined to produce a similar result. The espada are his attempts to recreate what happened with shinji's group, that's why he called the espadas mock arranncars. The espada we're just given soul reapers powers but shinji's group were implanted with a hollow to forcefully turn them but was saved by urraharra. There's a bit more to it but with the information you have learned up this point this is the most I can say to explain the confusion for the comment on why he called them mock arranncars. Love the reaction homies.
No. Aizen is talking to the people he's about to fight. The Gotei 13 and the "failed mock Arrancars." He's asking them if they're ready to start the real fight. He's obviously not talking to the Espada since they're all down for the count
@@WiqidBritt what are you going on about. Lee, and director nasty asked and discussed the comment of Aizen to Hallie bell when he called her a failed mock arranncar and I explained why he called her a mock arranncar without spoiling Anything from the future episodes of the series. At no point did I mention anything about his comment to the gotie 13, unless your trying to say the mock arranncar statement was to the gotie 13 which isn't the case.
@@midnightdevil.3803 ... He wasn't talking to Harribel when he said that... watch the episode. Aizen says "Now, shall we begin? 13 Court Guard squads, and you failed mock Arrancars" It's the last line of the episode. He's calling the Visoreds failed Arrancars because he considers them incomplete prototypes.
@@midnightdevil.3803 so you know what happens and you’re probably caught up or finished reading Bleach, but you still don’t know that he was talking about Shinji’s group…
@@WiqidBritt your right his statement was to shinji's group, I fucked up there but my statement was still true cause he still called the espadas failures considering them the same as shinji's group.
Grimmjow is was not vasto lord before becoming an arankar. He will has the insecurity of losing himself if he didn't devour/subjugate, that's why he went about his way
Starkk is my second favorite Espada. Its just sad that he died. I really think that him and Kyoraku could have been good friends... Lazy guys doing lazy things
Coyote Starrk aspect of death he represented was loneliness...the fact his arrancar transformation removed his loneliness by creating Lillynette is kinda beautiful !

Failed mock Arrancars, remember that they are not Arrancars...they are Vizoreds. They have limitations for how long they can fight in their hollowfied form, they are failures at creating the ultimate weapons. Basically consider the Espada to be failed true Arrancars, while the Vizoreds are failed mock Arrancars. It could be said that at this point, the only successful true Arrancar could be considered Vasto Lorde Ichigo!
Aizen did Harribel dirty 😭
Downright disgusting
People be clowning on stark for losing 'easily' without thinking that he was fighting Shunsui. MF said that Hitsugaya would surpass him in a 100 years, and Hitsugaya was busted in tybw arc that was just 2 or 3 years from this battle.
Shunsui defeated him without using his bankai, this was Shunsui's winning with ease not Stark being any less strong than the likes of Ulquiora or Grimmjow.
It's just because this fight wasn't flashy like the other ones people think stark was weak.
Shunsui did not win with ease. In a 1v1 he needs bankai. He would have lost this fight in only shikai if he didnt get that sneak attack off.
@@johnathanera5863 yeah i was wrong there. The battle was tough for a shikai state Shunsui but he wasn't too worried for his life either because he knew he still had a Trump card.
@@TheReaIestOne eh. Yes and no. If he used his bankai he would kill some of his allies. His bankai is an AOE that will attack anyone In its vacinity. So while yes, he did have bankai up his sleeve, in this scenario its honestly a bit of a liability. But yeah, HIS life was in no danger. His bankai would handle stark no problem. Unfortunately it would ALSO handle any allies in the vacinity.
I aways wonder what would happen if some "good" shinigami found stark before aizen, Someone able to resist his power, I wonder if he would be on the "right" side of history and stay alive. I also wonder what it would be like if the fight with Shunsui had a peaceful course
Impossible, as Stark was still a Vasto Lorde in Hueco Mundo, so any Shinigami that would have found him would have been there to kill hollows.
you guys: COME ON!!! destroy the patriarchy!! avenge the shawty!!!
adorkable: lemme defend aizen real quick 😅😅❤
never change
adorkable is down so bad for aizen she's like feminism who😭
i respect her for that tho like me too tbh
Yeah. Balances out well lol
Shunsui Shinkai is so cool
@13:27 ehh not really. They would've lived they're way stronger than you think. That's all I'mma say.
The vizards are the true version of an aranncar as the are two races combined to produce a similar result. The espada are his attempts to recreate what happened with shinji's group, that's why he called the espadas mock arranncars. The espada we're just given soul reapers powers but shinji's group were implanted with a hollow to forcefully turn them but was saved by urraharra. There's a bit more to it but with the information you have learned up this point this is the most I can say to explain the confusion for the comment on why he called them mock arranncars. Love the reaction homies.
No. Aizen is talking to the people he's about to fight. The Gotei 13 and the "failed mock Arrancars." He's asking them if they're ready to start the real fight. He's obviously not talking to the Espada since they're all down for the count
@@WiqidBritt what are you going on about. Lee, and director nasty asked and discussed the comment of Aizen to Hallie bell when he called her a failed mock arranncar and I explained why he called her a mock arranncar without spoiling Anything from the future episodes of the series. At no point did I mention anything about his comment to the gotie 13, unless your trying to say the mock arranncar statement was to the gotie 13 which isn't the case.
@@midnightdevil.3803 ... He wasn't talking to Harribel when he said that... watch the episode. Aizen says "Now, shall we begin? 13 Court Guard squads, and you failed mock Arrancars" It's the last line of the episode. He's calling the Visoreds failed Arrancars because he considers them incomplete prototypes.
@@midnightdevil.3803 so you know what happens and you’re probably caught up or finished reading Bleach, but you still don’t know that he was talking about Shinji’s group…
@@WiqidBritt your right his statement was to shinji's group, I fucked up there but my statement was still true cause he still called the espadas failures considering them the same as shinji's group.
Grimmjow is was not vasto lord before becoming an arankar. He will has the insecurity of losing himself if he didn't devour/subjugate, that's why he went about his way
Rip stark my favorite espada and the strongest, sorry Ulquiorra fanboys but it's the truth now accept this fact 💯
Bruh are you forgetting Yami? Literally No. 0 himself?
@@Xeno_Solarus. Yammy is trash
Not with Cien being a thing lmao though definitely underrated
Starkk is my second favorite Espada. Its just sad that he died. I really think that him and Kyoraku could have been good friends... Lazy guys doing lazy things
@@Stasis_lmao leave it to Narita to ruin the power scaling
Aizen's bored, he's done with the comedy. Time to get serious.
Aizen has done nothing wrong
