Which Shikai is your favourite? Which arc did it best for new Shikai reveals, and why is it the Soul Society Arc? Let me know your thoughts down below!
Could you please do another Byakuya and Kenpachi video? Discussing everything that you did briefly but also incorporating how similar the characters are but very different from where both of them come from the highest of nobles to the lowest stature and all of soul society to one having Shukei Hokutaken having White Angel like wings and a halo while the other one turns into a devil with horns.
I actually think Shinji’s release is the most anticipated and iconic…. Aiden’s turn kinda came outta nowhere… although it was a big WTF moment. Shinji’s was actually an anticipated moment because he was the viazard leader, and he had a few fights without even using it. especially after we found out he was Aizen’s captain.
We definitely want a "All Shikai - From Anime" video. There's a lot more to cover in it. Especially in all the filler arcs. Most people are not a fan of it, but I personally enjoyed all the filler arcs.
Ichimonji is symbolic of how Spirit King candidates lose their names and full identity. It also shows how Ichibei has gone on to essentially rewrite the narrative of the war. Erasure and loss of identity is the core symbolism of his Shikai beneath its lethal capabilities.
Just a small correction about something in the video: Byakuya's release command was never "Die". That was a mistranlation by viz. In the japanese version,it has always been "散れ" (Chire,"scatter"). They just probably thought it was Byakuya saying that to his opponent instead of to his Zanpakutou. They always make some small mistakes like this,like having Lille say he was the last one given a schrift,instead of the first one like it is supposed to be.
Awesome video, love recap videos like this one. I would like to see you do a theory video on what would happen if Ywatch had returned while Aizen was occupying Hueco Mundo or even prior to his betrayal during the SS arc.
It’s insane when you realize that Ichigo has so much Reiatsu that he’s constantly walking around in his shikai. Imagine if others did that. Everyone in Kyoraku’s proximity would be forced to play his games . Aizen with his spiritual pressure control manages to confuse everyone.
I honestly like how hyper specific to situations some of the zanpakuto are. Like Sogyo no Kotowari absorbs energy and shoots it back but if the enemy doesnt use them then the shikai is virtually useless
“…last time we’ll have Ichigo on this list…for now, anyway.” Hell Arc: Ichigo, you need to embrace your maternal great grandfather’s demonic power, and wield three Zangetsu.
Captain Ukitake and Captain Kyōraku are most definitely my 2 fav captains in the series. I love their long, detailed, drawn out release commands. Most definitely, Katen Kyōkotsu is my fav shikai of all shikai. Mainly for its childish but deceptively deadly deameanor and the way he uses it in battle. But i wish they did more with Ukitake. I feel like his character was totally wasted, despite what he did in the TYBW Arc. Even then, he lost his life for absolutely no reason.
Gonryōmaru's shikai is static electricity. What you can't see off page, is Sasakibe scuffing his feet back and forth to help generate power. Kinda like how Ikkaku spins his Bankai 😂
I still don't like how Rangiku's shikai is effectively a Dollar and a Quarter Tree knockoff of Senbonzakura. Or how Hiyori's shikai is a Dollar and a Quarter Tree knockoff of Zabimaru. They deserved better!!
It still ticks me off to this day that not only did we not get to hear Iba's zanpakuto name, its abilities and its release command but kubo thought it was a good idea to make a guy, who was more irrelevant than Chad, a captain at the end of the series
Not related to video but if a captain dies there the ceremony that u have to wait a few years because they’re raitsu is too strong. What about the soul king? Do they need to do the same? And where does his “soul” go if he even has one?
I thought it was cry benihime. I liked hanataro yamada's shikai is cool. Zennosuke kurumadani shikai good morning tsuchinamazu. I would like to know what their bankai would be.
I can't remember if Ginjo's Cross of Scaffold is both his Fullbring and Shikai or just purely his Fullbring. I know he goes into Bankai with it, but am unsure if it is due to Scaffold's ability replication or Ginjo actually using Bankai with it.
Engetsu was partially revealed when Isshin was fighting Aizen alongside Yoruichi & Kisuke Urahara. Also can we get more videos on the filler & light novels?
Wouldn't Ginjo's sword clarify as a shikai after stealing ichigos fullbring to restore his own shinigami powers? I mean he does activate a bankai in their fight, but the sword which is Ginjos fullbring was supposed to be modeled after his zanpakto.
So did Renji and Byakuya's fight, during the soul society arc, not happen in the manga? I didn't read it. Or did Byakuka go straight to bankai? It's been years since I've watched the anime and don't remember every detail. I'm waiting for the TTYBW to end to go through the whole thing again
I'm not gonna lie- when I read the last ark initially- I honestly thought the Zero division basically didn't have Zanpaktou. Besides Ichibae, I generally the others used their skills of what they were famous for in order to fight.
I understand this is manga only, but I disagree with your commentary on Kinpikas ability. Tenjiro used Kinpika to blind his enemies with radiant light (we agree on this) but he was also able to conjure the hot springs water attacks as well as the red water blood replacement ability, using Kinpika.
Could you do an explained video about the hollow white and his impact on ishin and ichigo's mother? I find him to be such an interesting character but with literally no videos about him
I got the idea when reading the NBFH chapter that the gyaru from the 8th Division released her shikai with that bear form and that her zanpakuto are her fingernails, but maybe I'm reading too much into it.
Shikai/Bankai are absolutely my favorite part about Bleach and one of my favorite Power systems in all of Manga/Anime. It's one of the reason Bleach is my favorite of the Big 3, and in my top 3 over all favorites.
As tosen would say hmmmmmuummhhumumumhgdunnndunnndaadssssttrtf Look i'm sorry but kira What always has my favorite shikai I suck so bad that he got Rolled in damn mirror every fight.I always want to see more of him and his zangpactou
If only we were given more than one arc to introduce the entire gotei 13. So many of them were pushed to the side and ultimately forgotten. Just look at this list of shikai. It’s crazy how many of them don’t matter in the slightest.
The problem is that Soul Society arc already covered the big event Ichigo could realistically be pulled into without a new faction being created... which is why half of the filler arc basically redid the "civil war" angle of the soul society using a new but connected faction.
My only issue with it was we never got any hollow mask drip to go along with it, he should’ve gotten a new mask with a partial horn to show his powers can be restricted less after the Soul society amp at the end of fullbring
When Ichigo fights Goku in a crossover, his ancient Saiyan blood will awaken letting him turn super saiyan, and then when Beerus steps in, he'll resist the destruction energy and remember that even though it was forbidden, his great great great great great great grandmother was actually the daughter of a God of Destruction and Supreme Kai. ^_^
I need state how much I like your channel. One of the very few anime channels I'm a sub of, been a sub since 30k I think. No obnoxious editing, no annoyingly hyped voiceover, no stupid theories, no unfunny jokes, no clickbait... You're basically the inverse of the average anime youtuber. Your text is very elegant and direct to the point, with some clever jokes here and there but just on the right amount to not distract, the editing is simple so you can keep focus on what's being discussed, your tone for the voiceover is calm and friendly and your flow is pretty good too, not too fast but not too slow either, you ACTUALLY have media literacy and understand what Bleach is all about, we can see your passion for the series, but you also understand its weak points and its plot holes, not being afraid to point bullshit out. The fact that there's no BGM, no jump cuts, no sfx, makes your videos very soothing, it's like I'm hearing a buddy flexing his huge Bleach knowledge on me for an hour every week. I wish there were more channels like this. Cheers!
Ryujin Jakka's Shikai is definitely one of the most intimidating and majestic Shikais ever. Giant pillars of fire that incinirate anything in their path
I just realized something that I find kinda funny. Ichigo regains his powers and reveals the fullbring shikai in episode 361 of the original anime, and then loses his fullbring bankai in episode 7 of the tybw, so Ichigo only wields the fullbring Zangetsu for about 13 episodes of the anime. It’s easy to forget how little time he has fullbring Zangetsu in the anime because of the gap between the airing of the lost agent and tybw
Fun Fact: Aizen's supposed command "Shatter" is actually not his shikai release command. It is simply the command for disengaging his illusions on a target, not the command for the release of the zanpakuto itself. Think about it, whenever he used this command, it's always for dispelling an illusion, never for putting a target under hypnosis. As for what the actual release command of his zanpakuto is, he never stated it. However, we see him performing it on Baraggan but he never said the command. He only told the latter to simply look at his sword. This brings to my next point... Remember when Byakuya commented that Renji being able to release his sword without the command means that he's ready for Bankai? Yes, Aizen performing KS on Baraggan without the command suggests that he too is ready for a Bankai, or perhaps he already achieved it, which is more likely the case.
Unironically, i think that Lt. Matsumoto could absolutely train under Byakuya to unlock her bankai. Haineko and Senbonzakura seem very connected. Iirc, at some point, Haineko's ash form was described as hundreds upon millions of tiny blades. I could see Rangiku's bankai basically being identical to Byakuya, except the collected form would be that of a giant cat which could shatter into billions of microblades made of ash, that Rangiku could control.
If you consider Ganjyu's gutting a half-reveal, the full reveal of Senbonzakura is not in his fight with Ichigo but with Renji, where it's form as thousands of pink blades is on full display.
I love Nejibana. Tridents are my favorite type of weapon, and I wish we had gotten to see more of the trident zanpakuto. Plus, Kaien was a rare water user, so I definitely wish we could’ve seen more
Gegetsuburi Actually Does Have A Special Abilitiy. In The Manga We See That Every Time He Uses The Shikai Its Apearence Changes. The Flail Has Been Seen With Large Spikes But Few Of Them, Small Spikes But More Of Them, And No Spikes Instead There Are Round Bulges. Presumably He Chooses Which Form He Wanta When He Summon It, But That Is Just Speculation.
Makes me wonder if Aaroniero could have used Kaien's bankai as well if he had one. It's a good thing Kaien never learned bankai. Aaroniero would have stacked that on top of his release mode. He probably would have been a few ranks above 9 as well.
Whether or not he had a bankai we will never truly know, however baised on what we do know about him it is very possible that he did. Though Aaroneiro would not have used it against Rukia as there was no need to, and his rank likely would not change just because of a bankai. Being a gillion his power level would already be far lower than the rest of the espada who are all vastolorde (2 power teirs higher than himself) a bankai may have leveled that gap though.
@ladrellhart2063 we don't get confirmation about espadas 7 or 8, but Noitora and Grimmjow are both heavily suggested to also be vastolorde. The only espada confirmed to be an adjuchas is Yammi. Infact at the end of Grimmjow's flashback he is depicted in a manner that suggests he was evolving into a vastolord, though it's true we never get to see that form.
@potatoskeli They did back story on Grimmjow he was trying to get to the Vosto Lord class but he didn't do it in time. 1- 4 are the only Vosto Lords. Check out the lore and data books. However, they did a light novel on the 8th Espada it says he was a Vosto Lord but he downgrade him self for the sake of research after that he joined the Espada so he would have been higher than 8 if he never done that. The Vosto Lords can't release under the dome of Las Noches. They'll destroy the place if they did. Every Espada under the 4th did release under the dome.
This is the reason i loved watching bleach for the first time. All the Zanpakutõ we get to se so early on, it's overwhelming or at least it was. So many characters with so many unik abilitys.
It would have been cool to see a shikai named Jorogumo (Entangle Jorogumo release command), and its ability ends up being a web of strings that end up restricting the target, and stringing them up in the air while draining their spiritual power/reishi. It also could be commanded to constrict body parts and cut through them or act like a noose/garotte. It would be based on the Jorogumo yokai from Japanese Myth, that is a spider with illusionary powers, and it would constrict and kill it's victims.
What are your thoughts on giving the Soul king a zanpakuto that specializes in Absolute creation and destruction(this includes creating Souls like humans,hollows and more )to make it more op it is immune to Ichibei's abilities or what zanpakuto would you give the soul king if possible can you do a video with your thoughts on this
I think Tousen and Unohana arent fully revealed shikai. My theory is Unohana's shikai isnt a shikai at all and actually her manifested Zanpakto spirit similar to Yachiru in the TYBW arc(also the connection of them having the same name as well, Kubo is meticulous like that) and I believe the 2 versions of Tousen's shikai abilities are 2 of 5 based off the senses, the one that done in Uryu being sound and the one used against Zaraki being touch(due to the physical nature of it)
I'm surprised that you didn't included the other new vice captain with the bear/animal power. It what appears that her shikai might be her fingernails. Truly speculation but it could have been mentioned with an asterik. I know youve mentioned it in several other videos so im not giving you a hard time. I appreciate your content. Keep up the great work.
Which Shikai is your favourite? Which arc did it best for new Shikai reveals, and why is it the Soul Society Arc? Let me know your thoughts down below!
Katenkyokotsu
Kyoka suigetsu

I think sakanades reveal in 385 should be a half reveal and then a full reveal in 387
Best arc for shikai, FKT, best shikais > yumichika + hisagi, but just those 2 are almost on par with the SS arc reveals
While everyone loves a Bankai reveal, I think the reveal of Aizen's Shikai remains one of the best power reveals in the series. It is simply iconic!
I actually think Shinji’s release is the most anticipated and iconic…. Aiden’s turn kinda came outta nowhere… although it was a big WTF moment. Shinji’s was actually an anticipated moment because he was the viazard leader, and he had a few fights without even using it. especially after we found out he was Aizen’s captain.

This!
And the movies
The zanpakuto rebellion arc was really good
Ichimonji is symbolic of how Spirit King candidates lose their names and full identity. It also shows how Ichibei has gone on to essentially rewrite the narrative of the war. Erasure and loss of identity is the core symbolism of his Shikai beneath its lethal capabilities.
Captain Ukitake's Shikai release command is so badass! I wish we could have seen him fight more.
Just a small correction about something in the video:
Byakuya's release command was never "Die". That was a mistranlation by viz. In the japanese version,it has always been "散れ" (Chire,"scatter"). They just probably thought it was Byakuya saying that to his opponent instead of to his Zanpakutou. They always make some small mistakes like this,like having Lille say he was the last one given a schrift,instead of the first one like it is supposed to be.
Interesting that Ishin's Shikai is a fire-based one. The English VA for Ishin is also the same one that voice Endeavor in MHA. A fire-based hero.
45 minutes of bleach content by the 🐐 himself😎
I was half expecting to see a section on Zangetsu's odd reversal to it's old shikai design since it's technically a reveal.
7:53 "Turning the katana into lethal fidget spinners"
Awesome video, love recap videos like this one. I would like to see you do a theory video on what would happen if Ywatch had returned while Aizen was occupying Hueco Mundo or even prior to his betrayal during the SS arc.
It’s insane when you realize that Ichigo has so much Reiatsu that he’s constantly walking around in his shikai. Imagine if others did that.
Everyone in Kyoraku’s proximity would be forced to play his games . Aizen with his spiritual pressure control manages to confuse everyone.
I'm still sad we don't know his release command, hope Hell arc will reveal it
@@сахасахович-п2и stand up be strong Zangetu
@@сахасахович-п2иit would probably be “shine like the moon” or “eclipse”
@@user-ft7cj2oj9j Or something super "basic" like "Slice" or something
@@user-ft7cj2oj9j id find it more likely to be "pierce" or "slay" the moon
thank God a video that isn't depressing in my RUclips feed
I honestly like how hyper specific to situations some of the zanpakuto are. Like Sogyo no Kotowari absorbs energy and shoots it back but if the enemy doesnt use them then the shikai is virtually useless
good morning?! best release command ever
Me: Hey Tetsuzaemon, what's the name of your Shikai?
Tetsuzaemon: My shikai is....
Me: Fine keep your secret. 😅
“…last time we’ll have Ichigo on this list…for now, anyway.”

Dope video dude really enjoy your content and how you break things down
Thank you!
Man, I was JUST looking for something to watch after finishing the last episode of Vox Machina season 2 lol
MrTommo provides 😔🙏
Gonryōmaru's shikai is static electricity. What you can't see off page, is Sasakibe scuffing his feet back and forth to help generate power. Kinda like how Ikkaku spins his Bankai 😂

I am so inlove with the design of Urahara’s shikai❤❤❤
35:42 This technically isn’t the only one. Ginjō has a shikai & bankai. We see it after he merges with the reiatsu of Ichigo
It still ticks me off to this day that not only did we not get to hear Iba's zanpakuto name, its abilities and its release command but kubo thought it was a good idea to make a guy, who was more irrelevant than Chad, a captain at the end of the series
Have you ever thought that if the Quincy mixed with the Shinigami then their children would be born with the antibodies against the hollows
Not related to video but if a captain dies there the ceremony that u have to wait a few years because they’re raitsu is too strong.
What about the soul king? Do they need to do the same? And where does his “soul” go if he even has one?
I thought it was cry benihime. I liked hanataro yamada's shikai is cool. Zennosuke kurumadani shikai good morning tsuchinamazu. I would like to know what their bankai would be.
I can't remember if Ginjo's Cross of Scaffold is both his Fullbring and Shikai or just purely his Fullbring. I know he goes into Bankai with it, but am unsure if it is due to Scaffold's ability replication or Ginjo actually using Bankai with it.
I adore Ichigo's dual Zangetsu. Used to have a keychain of them on my car keys
Sakanade is one of the coldest shikai releases esp how it was done in the anime
Engetsu was partially revealed when Isshin was fighting Aizen alongside Yoruichi & Kisuke Urahara. Also can we get more videos on the filler & light novels?
Now please create video recaping every ressurection segunda etapa
Wouldn't Ginjo's sword clarify as a shikai after stealing ichigos fullbring to restore his own shinigami powers? I mean he does activate a bankai in their fight, but the sword which is Ginjos fullbring was supposed to be modeled after his zanpakto.
So did Renji and Byakuya's fight, during the soul society arc, not happen in the manga? I didn't read it. Or did Byakuka go straight to bankai? It's been years since I've watched the anime and don't remember every detail. I'm waiting for the TTYBW to end to go through the whole thing again
Isn't Tsukushima's "Book Of the End " his first shikai reveal ?
That’s a fullbring not a zanpaktou
I'm not gonna lie- when I read the last ark initially- I honestly thought the Zero division basically didn't have Zanpaktou. Besides Ichibae, I generally the others used their skills of what they were famous for in order to fight.
I think you miss the little girl that's new vice captain of 8th division, though I don't if those nails are her Shikai.
Thanx MrTommo
Now we just need a Resurrectión list from the manga only. 😅
I understand this is manga only, but I disagree with your commentary on Kinpikas ability. Tenjiro used Kinpika to blind his enemies with radiant light (we agree on this) but he was also able to conjure the hot springs water attacks as well as the red water blood replacement ability, using Kinpika.
Could you do an explained video about the hollow white and his impact on ishin and ichigo's mother?
I find him to be such an interesting character but with literally no videos about him
Id love to see a video like : every non canon character ranked weakest to strongest,
I am sorry I know this isn't part of the vid but Ichigo is just so damn hot
*I refuse to die until...*
I found out what Tetsuzaemon Zanpakutō is called, what it does, and its release command!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shuhei always felt like he was gonna be a bigger character
I think we may be certain of chojiros shikai being lightning because of the zanpakutou filler
I got the idea when reading the NBFH chapter that the gyaru from the 8th Division released her shikai with that bear form and that her zanpakuto are her fingernails, but maybe I'm reading too much into it.
It's absolutely possible, and in fact, I'm inclined to think the same, but we just don't know for sure.
Tommo is a man for the people
Thank you very much!
Shikai range from being barley better than normal to being better than Bankai
I'd like to argue that Ichigo's true shikai full reveal was against Yhwach, when he unleashed the hollow power of his blade
Yo Tommo, can you show off a Zanpakuto of your own and make one :D
I like to think that Unohana's command is "consume"
I got a question. What’s the best way to read the Bleach manga in color? And where?
Anime filler Arcs Shikai reveals please?
Can we get a what if aizen versus captains using bankais?
Was ikkau in here?
Kudakero 🗣️🐐🗿
Please do more JJK content, manga is peak rn.
You forgot one Shikai Mr. Tommo. . . .
Mine, Scourge! Sutāsukāji!!!
Ibas Shikai🐐
quick note, Charlotte in all databooks is referred to as "she"
So could Shinji have killed Aizen if he didn’t Super Sayan it and just went for the kill?
What about nimaya oetsu
Shikai/Bankai are absolutely my favorite part about Bleach and one of my favorite Power systems in all of Manga/Anime. It's one of the reason Bleach is my favorite of the Big 3, and in my top 3 over all favorites.
I don't think Tenjiro's is a full reveal. At all
he forgor about renji vs byakuya
As tosen would say hmmmmmuummhhumumumhgdunnndunnndaadssssttrtf
Look i'm sorry but kira What always has my favorite shikai I suck so bad that he got Rolled in damn mirror every fight.I always want to see more of him and his zangpactou
Did I miss gin?
Some of the English release commands are ass lmao. Especially the longer ones.
If only we were given more than one arc to introduce the entire gotei 13. So many of them were pushed to the side and ultimately forgotten.
Just look at this list of shikai. It’s crazy how many of them don’t matter in the slightest.
The problem is that Soul Society arc already covered the big event Ichigo could realistically be pulled into without a new faction being created... which is why half of the filler arc basically redid the "civil war" angle of the soul society using a new but connected faction.
Fullbring Shikai Ichigo is so slick. One of my favorite designs in the series.
agreed
My favorite is the bankai of that
My only issue with it was we never got any hollow mask drip to go along with it, he should’ve gotten a new mask with a partial horn to show his powers can be restricted less after the Soul society amp at the end of fullbring
"...and the last time we'll have Ichigo on this list.
For now, anyway." 😅😅😅
I love how Ichigo is just a set of nesting-dolls to Kubo-sensei.
When Ichigo fights Goku in a crossover, his ancient Saiyan blood will awaken letting him turn super saiyan, and then when Beerus steps in, he'll resist the destruction energy and remember that even though it was forbidden, his great great great great great great grandmother was actually the daughter of a God of Destruction and Supreme Kai. ^_^

Could not have summarized how much I like this channel any better honestly

Ryujin Jakka's Shikai is definitely one of the most intimidating and majestic Shikais ever. Giant pillars of fire that incinirate anything in their path
I just realized something that I find kinda funny. Ichigo regains his powers and reveals the fullbring shikai in episode 361 of the original anime, and then loses his fullbring bankai in episode 7 of the tybw, so Ichigo only wields the fullbring Zangetsu for about 13 episodes of the anime. It’s easy to forget how little time he has fullbring Zangetsu in the anime because of the gap between the airing of the lost agent and tybw
which sucks because it looks so nice :(
Did you account for how much time has passed between Fullbring and TYBW arcs though?
Fun Fact: Aizen's supposed command "Shatter" is actually not his shikai release command. It is simply the command for disengaging his illusions on a target, not the command for the release of the zanpakuto itself.

However, they did a light novel on the 8th Espada it says he was a Vosto Lord but he downgrade him self for the sake of research after that he joined the Espada so he would have been higher than 8 if he never done that. The Vosto Lords can't release under the dome of Las Noches. They'll destroy the place if they did. Every Espada under the 4th did release under the dome.
Ryujin Jakka is my favourite for sure, every time Yama released it was such a spectacle
Ukitake has to have the coolest shikai reveal in my opinion. Yama definitely helped him with the fire in the background.
This is the reason i loved watching bleach for the first time.
All the Zanpakutõ we get to se so early on, it's overwhelming or at least it was. So many characters with so many unik abilitys.
thanks for all the hard work making these dope videos
Overall you guys did a great job with the video
I meant this for a different video, but this video was fire like always
It would have been cool to see a shikai named Jorogumo (Entangle Jorogumo release command), and its ability ends up being a web of strings that end up restricting the target, and stringing them up in the air while draining their spiritual power/reishi. It also could be commanded to constrict body parts and cut through them or act like a noose/garotte. It would be based on the Jorogumo yokai from Japanese Myth, that is a spider with illusionary powers, and it would constrict and kill it's victims.
It never clicked with me that Hitsugaya's sword should have been affected by Wabisuke
What about nanaos family blade?
Momo in Chapter 101: Call me Tobiume because I'm about to snap
Suzumebachi 🐝 was always my favorite shikai
I would love to see the light novels shikai (and bankai, if you haven't done it yet)
I'm only here to hear you have nothing to say about Iba.
EDIT : Found it, 19:42
What about Ginjou's shikai?
Tatsufusa enjoji shikai hozan?
What are your thoughts on giving the Soul king a zanpakuto that specializes in Absolute creation and destruction(this includes creating Souls like humans,hollows and more )to make it more op it is immune to Ichibei's abilities or what zanpakuto would you give the soul king if possible can you do a video with your thoughts on this
Reap.... Kazeshini
I think Tousen and Unohana arent fully revealed shikai. My theory is Unohana's shikai isnt a shikai at all and actually her manifested Zanpakto spirit similar to Yachiru in the TYBW arc(also the connection of them having the same name as well, Kubo is meticulous like that) and I believe the 2 versions of Tousen's shikai abilities are 2 of 5 based off the senses, the one that done in Uryu being sound and the one used against Zaraki being touch(due to the physical nature of it)
Is it just me or Haineko is like a weaker Senbonzakura?
It is.
I'm surprised that you didn't included the other new vice captain with the bear/animal power. It what appears that her shikai might be her fingernails. Truly speculation but it could have been mentioned with an asterik. I know youve mentioned it in several other videos so im not giving you a hard time.
I appreciate your content. Keep up the great work.
