Haschwalth's whole characterization is interesting. The man is all about loyalty and yet he betrayed his friend in the name of serving Yhwach. Only to have his loyalty to Yhwach rewarded with death.
@N8 2020 Strats I can understand why you think he was planning to betray him. Haschwalth's the reason there are still quincy around during the events of CFYOW
In the last moments with Uryu, Haschwalth tells him "don't think I feel bad being betrayed by his majesty". He had already accepted his destiny from the beginning. Since he was the other half of Ywacht. His dilemma was whether he had chosen the right path seeing that Uryu didn't mind sacrificing himself for his friends, even knowing the power of the antagonist. Haschwalth accepted his destiny from the moment that He meet Ywacht. He was a very built character. Beyond Good and Evil
I like how Jugram gave up a genuine bond with Bazz, to obtain a seemingly more beneficial bond with Yhwach. Only for him to realize that he had abandoned his only true friend, to serve a man who cared nothing about him. I think he saw his own death with the Almighty, but felt that he deserve such a fate. His story is quite sad, but he might have found some peace in helping Uryu in his final moments.
Actually its not only Hash's fault but also Buzz B. When Yhwach chose Hash instead of Buzz, Buzz was filled with envy and jealousy. Hash saw the face that couldn't accept hash being stronger and more useful to Yhwach. So Buzz is at fault also for abandoning Hash due to his envy and looking down on his friends. So both are at fault for the friendship ending
@@matthasch847 True, true. I really like that Kubo showed that both Jugo and Bazz were at fault for how things ended up. In fact, their falling out is quite an interesting parallel to Rukia and Renji’s backstory, which is a nice touch. The fact that both Bazz and Jugram also seemed to have realized their mistake right before they died, adds to the tragic nature of their story.
@@matthasch847But buzz eventually accepted the fact Hash was more special and stronger that's why he the most angriest of any sternitters that Hash didn't get the privilege of succession like he and all the sternitters thought was a no brainer so obviously Bazz still had a strong bond with him
The way I can understand "The Balance" is like an equation. If his opponent gains 1 fortune (damages him, evades attack, grows stronger, etc.) the Balance removes it, and turns it into a misfortune. So if they both start at 0, once the opponent gets a fortunate event, the balance is activated, and it goes from 0 to 1 to -1. And possibly, if Haschwalth is injured, he would also move that misfortune onto his opponent too, making them rest at -2.
He says that "All fortune is met with an equivalent amount of misfortune". In other words, if you have 1 fortune point, it would be met with -1 fortune points and reduced to 0. The shield would then reflect his own losses on to you, causing you to have -1 in total. Cang Du is a great example... He was able to block haschwalth's strike, so The Balance took his durability (fortune) and met it with an equivalent amount of "negative durability" (misfortune). This resulted in his total durability being 0. Thus, Jugram sliced right through his iron skin and split him in half.
The balance was actually first shown against ichigo when ichigo got lucky by accidentally activating blut vene and survived yhwach's attack. So Jugram rained misfortune on Ichigo by effortlessly breaking tensa zangetsu. Then he also almost used it against Nanao and Shunsui who got lucky twice with a barrier to block his attacks but was called back by Yhwach to punish Cang Du and Bg9. He also used it against Buzz who survived Aushwallen and his fortune was balanced by misfortune from Jugram to overpower and kill him.
@@kodoqbesar4301 Yhwach is stronger than Haschwalth yet he couldn't break Tensa Zangetsu. So Haschwalth broke it easily suggesting that it was The Balance that did the job.
@@zaiminnosi2905 isn't Tensa Zangetsu already shown to be chipped before the fight against Haschwalt? Yhwach probably chipping it even more and Haschwalt get the last blow.
Haschwald having an epiphany and ensuring the salvation of the surviving Quincies with his lady companion was his ultimate contribution. She is now essentially the leader of Quincy holdovers in the human world, just goes to show that Haschwald had some hidden depths despite his utter loyalty to Yhwach.
Probably Haswalth saw the defeat of Quincys with Almighty and his death, so he wanted to make sure that the surviving Quincys would escape safely. This is only my theory 😅
@@AngelKnightZeo713 She's from a Brief none important scene in the Manga. But the whole surviving Quincy's in the real world, is probably something from the Spin off Bleach Mangas.
@@codebreak1884Haschwalth literally even killed Bazz b to ensure that the Future he seen with Almighty, the one where he sees Ichigo's in his "Shikai" killing Yhwach would happen, not to mention had gone out of his way to trick Yhwach that the Shikai Zangetsu Almighty vision is just a Dream.
I do believe that there was another instance of The Balance being used. I believe that Jugram used The Balance to break Ichigo's Tensa Zangetsu, and did not break it only by sheer strength or by having a better weapon. Up until that point, Ichigo had been very fortunate, like by escaping Quilge's The Jail by awakening his quincy powers, and surviving a direct blow to the neck by Yhwach via unknowingly activating Blut Vene, and afterwards managing to injure Yhwach himself. Perhaps even the fact that Yhwach was out of time outside the Schatten Bereich could be counted as fortune for Ichigo. When Ichigo went in to attack Yhwach and Jugram as they were going away, I believe then Jugram used The Balance to convert Ichigo's fortune into misfortune, which resulted in his bankai being broken. I think it's a very satisfying theory, personally.

I don't think the thing with Yhwach running out of time was related to the balance as even he himself explains that during his meeting with Aizen, Aizen had used some kind of trickery to speed up time within the space of the seal that he was contained in when Yhwach traveled in there to try and recruit him.
In CFYOW, it is stated that he gains ALL of Yhwach's powers when he is asleep. Which would include all the Schrifts that the other Quincy who died have had since then. Liltotto even said "can that Haschwalth bastard see the future "too"?" The "too" proving that it is in conjunction with something.
@@グランツ-t2ohe's not necessarily the strongest he's almighty is not as op as yuha and he loses his balance powers he actually at his weakest during night
most of the bleach abilities are op. they literally had to use a quincy arrow asspull just to defeat ywach. problem with kubo's writing has always been its bad ass but he writes himself into a corner that he creates some asspull power that was never explained just to get out of it@@pokeczarelf
Out of all the stern rittter I think i would want either Uryu ability or Gremmy. It's scary when you think about the fact that all of the quincy op powers are just pieces of Ywach power. Ywach might be the most op antagonist in anime
"might" He literally can't be killed and even if he can he can just choose that that won't happen, He was defeated in an utter cop out by Kubo who didn't know how to write himself out of the mess he wrote, same reason for why Gerard had to be magically erased, as no one could actually fight him.
@@Virdice I completely agree and I only said might because it's alot of anime im not familiar with so it could be another character stronger than Ywach that I don't know about
Now this was a very well made video. Thank you! I would love to see the what ifs. It would be great! Gerard vs Hascwalt is the one that excites me the most! Thank you! 😁
Not sure how Haschwalth's Balance would fair against One Hit Characters like Zaraki and Gerard. Fortune and misfortune would only apply to people who are alive. If Haschwalth were to be killed in one hit then surely his ability would cease to function? Unlike Gerard who is virtually immortal and becomes stronger everytime is dealt damage. Haschwalth's Balance only comes into effect once the misfortune is realized by Haschwalth.
Gerard never killed anyone in one hot though. Infact he was getting one shotted throughout the fight by Kenpachi, Toshiro and Byakuya but always came back. He never oneshotted Kenpachi, whose body is already torn apart by his own bankai. Gerard relies on the concept of Miracle aka good fortune. It is a miracle that he can come back, it is also a miracle that he survived the encounter against alot of captains. Since Miracle is pretty much employing "good fortune" as its main source of power, Balance should be the perfect counter to it
Awesome video! I'm glad that I'm not only one who speculated that the true power of the Balance is to manipulate cause and effect. The one disagreement I have is that Haschwalth never said that his schrift is limited to redirecting misfortunes that happened only to himself. As he explained to Uryu, his power is to allocate misfortunes that occur in his domain to the fortunate. In other words, even misfortunes that occurred to allies can be redirected to the fortunate. Right when he was conversing with Kyoraku, he had analyzed the battles in the Seirietiei and concluded they were balanced. It is implied that his Balance has a huge area of effect and can redirect misfortune from anywhere. I imagine for this to be effective, Haschwalth's spiritual sensing has to be off the charts, and he may have a bit of clairvoyance on his own even without the Almighty. And yeah, I'm hoping the anime will expand on this amazing schrift. I'm guessing the reason why there are only two instances of him using his schrift is because he's immensely powerful in terms of raw power too. He broke Tensa Zangetsu and decimated Bazz-b with his skill as a swordsman. Even with Cang Du, it's likely he could have dealt with him without using his schrift, but Kubo used that moment to give a hint at what his schrift is all about.
The Balance is basically D4C: Love Train, but actually controllable, which makes it truly OP. Also, with Cang Du, I always thought the Balance simply allowed Haschwalth the good fortune of finding a weak point in Cang Du's defenses in order to bisect the latter.
@@Saint.Topman Yeah, because the Freundschilde can take in all the calamity, and Haschwalth can convert it to good fortune for himself. Without the shield, he might actually be fucked.
The Balance is the written equivalent to changing the rules of a game you're losing. Tito made one of the greatest manga ever, but the Balance and Miracle felt like lazy writing mechanics. Even explaining how it worked had me rolling my eyes. It literally a "because I said so" power, and they will never not feel lazy in writing.
I generally agree. And Kubo missed some opportunities to make some stuff make sense. E.g. There is one panel in the Gerald fight where Kenpachi cleaves Gerald in two, but Gerald'd body and blood are drawn back together around a quincy cross inside him. If Kubo had better health, he could have explored the significance of thst cross in placing a limit on Gerald (or the cross simply being Gerald's only weakpoint which has to be destroyed, or something like that). As written, I actually got bored towards the end of the fight because it was going nowhere. As for Haschwald and Balance, it felt to me that something was deemed good fortune just because Haschwald said so (e.g. cutting through the dude using Iron Skin).
I still don't get why he didn't have a Volstandig. I mean it would be even more broken but I feel like that and Uryu not having one was a lame aspect of their respective characters.
The balance is underrated as heck. A friend of mine argues that it is capable of withstanding the Almighty (pre soul king absorbed) but i don't quite agree with him. However it can be extremely useful against opponent's such as Aizen and Ichibe with their abilities too.
I think it's going to be useless against ichibei because once he got his ink on jugram it's over because he'll remove all his powers and what makes the balance works similar to what yhwach did to Gerard. Or just change the name of the balance to something else or call him a name that wouldn't allow him use his power....but that's if he knows about the ability very well though but judging his fight against yhwach he'll decimate jugram iMO. Aizen on the other hand... jugram just needs to look at him and he's finished. Gerald is the most problematic for the shinigamis iMO.
@@lexogun1311 true... However i was considering that if Jugram has his shield that will take the misfortune (which will be great in this case) he could reflect it back to Ichibe, then Ichibe will be as weak as whatever he called Jugram. Haswalth's ability seems to follow the concept of luck. So if Ichibe can some how remove the concept of luck then its still a good chance Jugram can win.
@@Libert5278 well...if it happens the way you put it then he has a chance but if ichibei can just remove your power just like yhwach did to Gerald then gg for jugram but both scenario could be possible but we'll never know now.
You forget that physical prowess are what needs to be taken into account as well. If Gerard or Kenpachi blast or cut Haschwalth in half, there is no balance to be done there. The reason Jugram is so powerful is his shield, he needed to use it, in order to counter Antithesis and not take that much damage himself, which proves he isn't all that physically tough. A brute strength and otherworldly move from Gerard or Zaraki would end him. Actually, the combo of Haschwalth and Yhwach is what can't be beaten IMO.
Soo if Its Aizen vs Jugram Aizen uses Kyouka Suigetsu to put Jugram under an illusion But that would Count as a MISFORTUNE to Jugram & FORTUNE to Aizen So if Jugram Uses The BALANCE to Negate KS he could prolly give a Great Fight to Aizen , But ObV Aizen wins Because of Immortality & Hogyoku Manifesting Everything Aizen wants
I think The Miracle might eventually beat out The Balance, as Gerard is a piece of the Soul King. It's something that might, forgive the pun, tip the scales.
@@md.tanvirhasananik3717 mimihagi tried to "stich" the soul king back together to make everything stable, which he did do, but not for long. He didnt travel no intermendisional distance, the soul king palace is not that far from the soul society
No, Almighty too broken for any others hax, Almighty actually control infinite possibilities. Balance percieve Almighty as "fortune", then negate almighty. All that only trigger future where Balance neg almighty, and of course, there "1 possibility" where balance neg almighty then aslo there is "1 possibility" where Balance don't trigger. And Yhwach only bring future where B doesn't trigger to infinite possibilities, so future where B trigger don't exist
@@Synkroniststill, in the manga (at least me) i never freaking saw HOW IN HELL the Antithesis could oppose to The Almighty. I really hope they show this in the anime. Finger crossed.
@@theoneitself The Almighty can rewrite events. The Antithesis can literally make the rewriting of events have the opposite effect that was originally intended. Yhwach steals Ichigo's power for example, well, thanks to the Antithesis, he just GAVE his own power to Ichigo. He destroys Aizen's arm, well, actually, Aizen destroyed HIS arm. He absorbs Aizen, well actually, Aizen absorbed Yhwach. You get the idea.
OOne thing I'm curious about: does the transfer of damage to the shield happen independent of Haschwalth's will, and if so; what would happen if an enemy was able to take the shield from him? I'm thinking someone like Ichigo in Bankai or Soifon going all out in speed to get in and out of his area of effect with it. Or is this a situation like with Uryu's bow where he can just form another one? This is all assuming that there's a minor delay in The Balance taking effect and suddenly nerfing that same speed. Only ways I can think of to beat this guy would be incredibly complicated and have numerous flaws for The Balance to exploit.
So it's just like cuchulain gae bolg in the Fate Series. I don't know if you're into the Fate series or type Moon but if you are can you please give us a another Channel where you go in-depth about characters noble phantasms etc
Jugrams ability is still a mystery to me as per your previous videos you covered it quite well against his enemies. However when it is used against Uryu it gets confusing for me. But its still a very cool ability.
Don’t get me wrong I love the Quincy abilities but sometimes they are so broken and confusing. Most soul reapers can’t do shit against them and if they do win it’s sum lucky shit that happens.
The Balance was a perfect counter to the Antithesis because the latter can transfer injuries from anyone to anyone else, or maybe just any damage if inanimate objects count. This counts as good fortune, which Haschwalth would immediately turn into bad fortune, and if Uryuu kept responding with the Antithesis, Haschwalth would respond in kind and overwhelm Uryuu.
Jurgram’s Shield increased his endurance by absorbing the Damage he takes before it PHYSICALLY hits him. Wutgout the shield, Jurgram’s endurance/toughness isn’t much. You either have to One Shot Jurgram or rid him of his Shield then attack him and out endure him (which shouldn’t be a problem for fighters like Zaraki)
it's wild how much I have to explain how busted his schrift is and people overlook it for abilities like gremmy's, which is busted as well but because of the nuance behind Haschwalth's ability, it seems to be misunderstood and overlooked.
In a vs we often throw mentality out of the picture. However, fights are won and lost in your mind in the world of bleach. Determination can best skill. The best skills are a labor of determination. As poetic as: To be or not to be. That is the question. Whether tis nobler in the mind to take arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing end them. On your vs can you throw in the added match within the match? You should describe why they are fighting, motivation to win can help. Destroying an opponent before they can power up, for instance. Or making the fatal mistake of feeding the opponents energy at the expense of your energy. Based on numbers alone. Balance may destroy every fiber of someone’s being interrupting the process of gaining more strength. Balance gives back the energy, plus some. What needs to be determined: How much can each person withstand, before the process is broken?
I know this video is about Shrift B (Balance), but I want to know something about Antithesis. Is it possible to use Antithesis to take/steal abilities from your enemy and give them to your friend? If I break a wooden board I can use Antithesis to swap the damage between the board and the enemy? Is it possible to use Antithesis to take away years of your enemy’s life in order to extend your own?Thank you for your attention. I will be glad if you answer my questions. Because in the anime it was shown that with the help of Antithesis you can swap the location of two objects. Shrift A and B should have been the strongest, but as shown, Balance is stronger than Antithesis.I'm not saying that Antithesis should be the strongest, but at least equal to Balance. Thanks again for your attention. I will be very glad if you answer my questions.
Hwy i will try to give my hest guess First i think it cant swap abilities becusse the restriction is a event had to take place then its instantaneous So whatever the effect or cause of that ability is what he can choose to reverse. -Second the balance imo isnt stronger than antethesis, just a 1000 year old explioted a new comers and had a secondary abilty they understood to late - Finally more about both abilities will be explained in the final cours -
Hashwald's balance destroys the opponent's ability when luck happens twice can tu blocked Hitsugaya's great technique + Hasheswald's sword, so he was hit by good luck twice, so he destroyed can tu abillty. it due to bad luck the third time. In fact, they say, "It's a second lucky"
@@danielpaladinthesage78bail11 I can understand how that could be misinterpreted, but that is clearly shown and explained to be the shield absorbing the misfortune of Jugram and reflecting it onto Uryu. In the panels afterwards, the shield is not damaged. Whether or not there is a limit to how much misfortune/damage the shield can take is currently not known.
From what I’m hearing, his abilities seems similar to the Almighty. Plus when he was able to cut and kill Cang Du, it reminds me of Kenpachi slicing Germany after he was saying “I just imagined my body being made of steel”.
so simply he can reverse misfortune that DIRECTLY effects him. His offense is dealing misfortune ontop of the misfortune already in place for the opponent when they put him in an unfortunate predicament
I don’t know much about the in-between of the later half of TYBW. All I heard was how busted this ability is and honestly it’s amazing how “The Balance” is deliberately unbalanced as hell.
I think the Balance could easily be countered in probably one of 2 ways that we'll call the direct route and indirect route. The direct route has to do with Hash's shield itself. That's the weakness. While it is able to reflect damage/misfortune, it also only reflects damage that HASH PERSONALLY SUFFFERS directly ie bodily harm or being unable to do something himself directly. However if a character, ie Kenpachi shikai, cuts/destroys just the shield directly WHILE he purposefully keeps taking damage (like he did in his Tousen bankai battle), he both can negate the fortune part of Balance (because he's not blocking incoming damage from Hash), while also attacking the shield (not Hash himself). Once the shield is negated, the Balance has nothing to reflect with, like a broken mirror. The indirect route is simply capitalizing on the other weakness that Hash himself has which is he can only misdirect fortune/misfortune "in his purview/area/vicinity". If a character "infects" Hash with an illusion, like Aizen's shikai, or a delayed "poison" such as Gin's Bankai or Mayuri's poison/paralysis (but they never physically injured Hash, just apply the status effect) and then that same character gets out of "range" of Hash's area/line of sight and is able to have the damage trigger after the fact to Hash, then there is noone/nothing nearby to reflect the Balance onto, thus Hash will have to take that damage himself. His weakness essentially is to be able to "fatally damage" when him when you're not around/after disengagement. It can't be in real time, or in a current battle with him.
He can just create another one lol... its a reishi weapon. He can just create another shield, and Kenpachi doing so would be good fortune... I'm sorry Kenpachi doesn't win this.
Yhwach absorbs Quincy's powers when he dies. Since Gremmy has already been absorbed, Hushwald can use His Majesty's power at night, so he can also use Gremmy's ability. Hashwald just can't change the future.
How does the x axis vs the balance play out? One makes you straight intangible to all damage while the other makes sure to balance out any misfortune and fortune. Edit: we would have to assume the balance itself is capable of touching the intangibility by turning him tangible. I don’t think it goes that far to the point of turning off the power
Anything you throw to jugram count as misfortune, including ichibei ink. With that, the balance throw it back to whoever did that misfortune to jugram.
Just like what jugram did to cangdu he nullified his schrift "I" the iron. And jugram did that even thou cangdu didn't attack jugram. Now, if you argue that jugram use his superior reatsu to cut cangdu that is already debunked cuz in the manga jugram clearly stated that "I see... How wonderful... Its your second good fortune... Can you see it the tilted scales?" - a clear evidence that jugram use his schrift "B" the balance to cut through cangdu body. If jugram B didn't remove the ability of cangdu schrift, then he shouldn't be cut by jugram sword. Therefore, same fate to what happened to Lille's intangibility.
So how it works is it just puts the misfortune from jugram to the enemy then double it. It’s still a balance because the balance was already out of place because of the enemy therefore correcting it and transferring it back so it is still a balance. At 7:13 he stated there’s a common denominator and that the balance doesn’t really balance when it actually does the balance goes out of place due to the enemy therefore the balance needs to rectify the problem so it takes away there fortune and let’s jugrsm have some it’s a bit like karma ( reap what you sow ).Yhwach would have a little problem with that considering haschwalth doesn’t have to attack to transfer to Yhwach so if he get hurt by Yhwach, there is no timeline in where Yhwach can avoid it because it just passively goes to him and the almighty only can alter Physical attacks from different timelines. The statement of when jugram said antithesis can rival the almighty that’s because it’s a passive ability and so is the balance although Yhwach can just use alschwallen on him.
@@Blad3sofWaR for sure, I suppose should have added that my first comment was presuming the two schrifts would be in completely equal Quincy. Kinda vital info I just forgot to add to my original comment Lmao. But that just makes it power V power Like I think, in a schrift on schrift fight, all else equal, Antithesis would overpower Balance.
Fair point. Off topic I agree with somebody's else's comment I'd gladly take a thousand ( pun \ no pun intended) worth of new expansion = expanding new lore / anime content for thousand year❤😂.
I feel like between the balance vs the miracle, it would definitely be a draw, but only in the sense that Gerard can't be killed seemingly. I think if it were a boxing match and you were scoring points though, after 12 rounds the balance would take the win.
@@DBZimran awesome! Thanks a million. It's truly a terrifying ability because not only can he defile events that have already taken place in reverse them but he can also direct any damage or anything taken between two designated targets it doesn't even have to be designated between him and the target it can be between him and another target or two other targets comparatively if you watch the Naruto the Akatsuki member heating and his ritual where he would stab himself The antithesis could do that and directed to the opponent It would be an unbeatable ability if the user was a villain opponent. The almighty altars future events the antithesis is the antithesis of the Almighty which alters past events.
Could you imagine if kenpachi zaraki had Gremmys ability with the strong mind he has and the belief he can defeat anybody he would be limitless and unstoppable
Actually I have to disagree with you and say Gerard is by far the easiest for Jugram to counter and defeat. Miracles are nothing but good fortune making him the most vulnerable to Jugram who just robs him of all his good fortune. We know the miracle has limits as it couldn't stop the Aushwalan. The Anti thesis also hardcore shuts down the miracle as it reverses all the fortune.
The most it would do based on what we have seen is further damage gerard. Which again would just make him stronger and stronger. The miracles only limit is something the balance also got limited by. And the miracle has shown more applications then just damage-based
I think it was the balance that killed haschwalt. When Uyru used the antithesis on him directly there nothing shielding him from the misfortune. So when Ywach used the ashwalen the balance tipped it to target him instead of uryu.
If Haschwalth's fortune of victory in a single battle yielded him a greater misfortune overall, his opponent may be able to overcome The Balance. One has to wonder what circumstance could be defined in this way. Say, if Hashwalth's family were to be killed should he win the battle. Or if he should betray his God, should he win. (Why the Balance couldn't counteract Auchwalen)
I always thought this ability was just stupid, like it makes no sense why it works. "Oh, you have a power? jk I turned it off" okay.... why? It's too OP
Honestly I always felt his power has a major problem in that it doesn't really stop someone from just stabbing him in the face so for all his overpoweredness the counter to his ability is literally just aim for the head
@@life-sf1oz Then you simply use the power the antithesis To unsummoned his shield Or break it The actual power of the antithesis like I said was not used In the fight properly at that point the story was being rushed so it never actually got to be explored in the story what it does And its implications jugrams got a shield that makes him invincible break a rock then transfer the brake to the shield in the shield will shatter regardless of its power To use the antithesis properly do what would like to happen to something but do it to something else and then transfer that to what you really want to have happen to it invincible things can be broken because you can transfer a rock's break to that actual target and no it doesn't matter if the shield is harder to break than a rock
Cang Du blocking his sword could be interpret as pure skill since Cang was capable of reacting and he was using his schrift that inherently blocks sword attacks anyway. The Balance still canceled it. Like Dbzimran, I believe Haschwalth manipulates cause and effect, and it ultimately falls onto him to determine what is luck and misfortune, which is the scary aspect of his schrift and how it can trump the Miracle, which is probability manipulation and Gerard power stems from not just from himself but the people he fights.
Another chance anyone who has the balance will always have the upper hand and the upper advantage in battle while the enemy will always have the disadvantage, and it works in a similar way to Shunsui Shikai ability..
He didn't have the balance yet, Jugram is a rare "giver" type Quincy like juah although... the situation with juah is a bit different since he's the soul king's son.
Haschwalth's whole characterization is interesting. The man is all about loyalty and yet he betrayed his friend in the name of serving Yhwach. Only to have his loyalty to Yhwach rewarded with death.
Spoilers*
Yeah but it seems that he was planning to betray yhwach the whole time
that is perfectly balanced, like all things should be
@N8 2020 Strats I can understand why you think he was planning to betray him. Haschwalth's the reason there are still quincy around during the events of CFYOW
@@dhaamd.slayer5025 okay Thanos
In the last moments with Uryu, Haschwalth tells him "don't think I feel bad being betrayed by his majesty". He had already accepted his destiny from the beginning.

I like how Jugram gave up a genuine bond with Bazz, to obtain a seemingly more beneficial bond with Yhwach. Only for him to realize that he had abandoned his only true friend, to serve a man who cared nothing about him. I think he saw his own death with the Almighty, but felt that he deserve such a fate. His story is quite sad, but he might have found some peace in helping Uryu in his final moments.
well said! excited to see those scenes animated :)
Actually its not only Hash's fault but also Buzz B. When Yhwach chose Hash instead of Buzz, Buzz was filled with envy and jealousy. Hash saw the face that couldn't accept hash being stronger and more useful to Yhwach. So Buzz is at fault also for abandoning Hash due to his envy and looking down on his friends.

The way I can understand "The Balance" is like an equation. If his opponent gains 1 fortune (damages him, evades attack, grows stronger, etc.) the Balance removes it, and turns it into a misfortune. So if they both start at 0, once the opponent gets a fortunate event, the balance is activated, and it goes from 0 to 1 to -1. And possibly, if Haschwalth is injured, he would also move that misfortune onto his opponent too, making them rest at -2.
He says that "All fortune is met with an equivalent amount of misfortune".
In other words, if you have 1 fortune point, it would be met with -1 fortune points and reduced to 0.
The shield would then reflect his own losses on to you, causing you to have -1 in total.
Cang Du is a great example...
He was able to block haschwalth's strike, so The Balance took his durability (fortune) and met it with an equivalent amount of "negative durability" (misfortune).
This resulted in his total durability being 0.
Thus, Jugram sliced right through his iron skin and split him in half.
And Jugram can take that fortune for himself thus he will finish at 1, and his opponent at -2z
The balance was actually first shown against ichigo when ichigo got lucky by accidentally activating blut vene and survived yhwach's attack. So Jugram rained misfortune on Ichigo by effortlessly breaking tensa zangetsu. Then he also almost used it against Nanao and Shunsui who got lucky twice with a barrier to block his attacks but was called back by Yhwach to punish Cang Du and Bg9. He also used it against Buzz who survived Aushwallen and his fortune was balanced by misfortune from Jugram to overpower and kill him.
I dunno if it's because of The Balance or Haschwalth being massively more powerful than that Ichigo
@@kodoqbesar4301 Yhwach is stronger than Haschwalth yet he couldn't break Tensa Zangetsu. So Haschwalth broke it easily suggesting that it was The Balance that did the job.
@@zaiminnosi2905 isn't Tensa Zangetsu already shown to be chipped before the fight against Haschwalt?
Yhwach probably chipping it even more and Haschwalt get the last blow.
@@zaiminnosi2905 Haschwalth is more of swordsman than Yhwach. Being stronger doesn't mean he is better at everything.
@@ironclad-m3q Nah, Tensa Zangetsu was is not fragile bankai like Mayuri or Renji + it was just fine in the manga.
Haschwald having an epiphany and ensuring the salvation of the surviving Quincies with his lady companion was his ultimate contribution. She is now essentially the leader of Quincy holdovers in the human world, just goes to show that Haschwald had some hidden depths despite his utter loyalty to Yhwach.
Probably Haswalth saw the defeat of Quincys with Almighty and his death, so he wanted to make sure that the surviving Quincys would escape safely. This is only my theory 😅
Haschwald had no companion whatsoever... WTF are you talking about?
@@AngelKnightZeo713 he has actually, a lady attendant
@@AngelKnightZeo713 She's from a Brief none important scene in the Manga. But the whole surviving Quincy's in the real world, is probably something from the Spin off Bleach Mangas.
@@codebreak1884Haschwalth literally even killed Bazz b to ensure that the Future he seen with Almighty, the one where he sees Ichigo's in his "Shikai" killing Yhwach would happen, not to mention had gone out of his way to trick Yhwach that the Shikai Zangetsu Almighty vision is just a Dream.
I do believe that there was another instance of The Balance being used. I believe that Jugram used The Balance to break Ichigo's Tensa Zangetsu, and did not break it only by sheer strength or by having a better weapon. Up until that point, Ichigo had been very fortunate, like by escaping Quilge's The Jail by awakening his quincy powers, and surviving a direct blow to the neck by Yhwach via unknowingly activating Blut Vene, and afterwards managing to injure Yhwach himself. Perhaps even the fact that Yhwach was out of time outside the Schatten Bereich could be counted as fortune for Ichigo. When Ichigo went in to attack Yhwach and Jugram as they were going away, I believe then Jugram used The Balance to convert Ichigo's fortune into misfortune, which resulted in his bankai being broken. I think it's a very satisfying theory, personally.
That's actually a good take some people believe that me included but we can't say for sure because it was never stated outright.
I'm fine with him just being that ridiculously strong, but the theory that he used The Balance there is a very satisfying explanation.

It's a Great Theory but that explanation doesn't work until after Jugram reveals his Shrift.
I don't think the thing with Yhwach running out of time was related to the balance as even he himself explains that during his meeting with Aizen, Aizen had used some kind of trickery to speed up time within the space of the seal that he was contained in when Yhwach traveled in there to try and recruit him.
In CFYOW, it is stated that he gains ALL of Yhwach's powers when he is asleep. Which would include all the Schrifts that the other Quincy who died have had since then.
Liltotto even said "can that Haschwalth bastard see the future "too"?"
The "too" proving that it is in conjunction with something.
Really?
CFYOW write he gains all of yhwach of power ？
where write please teach me
Reality is hashwalth is strongest quincy and kishidan
Can he see the future too could mean he can in addition to Ywhach

The Balance and The Miracle is like "An unstoppable force meets an immovable object" they would be fighting for a while and i find that kinda funny
Out of all the stern rittter I think i would want either Uryu ability or Gremmy. It's scary when you think about the fact that all of the quincy op powers are just pieces of Ywach power. Ywach might be the most op antagonist in anime
Uryu's ability is nice
"might"
He literally can't be killed and even if he can he can just choose that that won't happen,
He was defeated in an utter cop out by Kubo who didn't know how to write himself out of the mess he wrote, same reason for why Gerard had to be magically erased, as no one could actually fight him.

@@geroszekeres7136 Jugram wins, he cuts the Quincy heart and kills Gerald.
This was a great vid, I never fully grasped it when I first read the manga. And you made it very entertaining (to me). Keep up the good work!!
Not sure how Haschwalth's Balance would fair against One Hit Characters like Zaraki and Gerard. Fortune and misfortune would only apply to people who are alive. If Haschwalth were to be killed in one hit then surely his ability would cease to function? Unlike Gerard who is virtually immortal and becomes stronger everytime is dealt damage. Haschwalth's Balance only comes into effect once the misfortune is realized by Haschwalth.
That's a really good take.
Agreed 🤝
Gerard never killed anyone in one hot though. Infact he was getting one shotted throughout the fight by Kenpachi, Toshiro and Byakuya but always came back. He never oneshotted Kenpachi, whose body is already torn apart by his own bankai.
Gerard relies on the concept of Miracle aka good fortune. It is a miracle that he can come back, it is also a miracle that he survived the encounter against alot of captains. Since Miracle is pretty much employing "good fortune" as its main source of power, Balance should be the perfect counter to it
@@Satantron1 when yhwach go to sleep, than jugo handle and take yhwach powers and use auslaawenn I dont remember name
@@Mortals32 Jugram's almighty only lets him see the future. It is much weaker than Yhwach's who can alter it
I would love a further explanation of the schrift feedback loop
Awesome video! I'm glad that I'm not only one who speculated that the true power of the Balance is to manipulate cause and effect. The one disagreement I have is that Haschwalth never said that his schrift is limited to redirecting misfortunes that happened only to himself. As he explained to Uryu, his power is to allocate misfortunes that occur in his domain to the fortunate. In other words, even misfortunes that occurred to allies can be redirected to the fortunate. Right when he was conversing with Kyoraku, he had analyzed the battles in the Seirietiei and concluded they were balanced. It is implied that his Balance has a huge area of effect and can redirect misfortune from anywhere. I imagine for this to be effective, Haschwalth's spiritual sensing has to be off the charts, and he may have a bit of clairvoyance on his own even without the Almighty.
And yeah, I'm hoping the anime will expand on this amazing schrift. I'm guessing the reason why there are only two instances of him using his schrift is because he's immensely powerful in terms of raw power too. He broke Tensa Zangetsu and decimated Bazz-b with his skill as a swordsman. Even with Cang Du, it's likely he could have dealt with him without using his schrift, but Kubo used that moment to give a hint at what his schrift is all about.
Haschwalth ability is HIGHLY!... underrated. A lot of people don't understand how scary and broken this ability is.
Fact's
I mean I thought it was pretty broken off rip its the only power that can counteract antithesis
@@sparknazoand the only power to counter almighty is antithesis rock, paper, scissors
OMG it's literally the phrase:
"What's a King (Balance) to a God (Almighty) but what's a God to a non-believer (Antithesis).
The Balance is basically D4C: Love Train, but actually controllable, which makes it truly OP.
Also, with Cang Du, I always thought the Balance simply allowed Haschwalth the good fortune of finding a weak point in Cang Du's defenses in order to bisect the latter.
I would say it is less absolute compared to D4C but in effect it serves the same purpouse.
Balance is certainly more broken. Just one of it's effect is what dc4 does.
It’s kinda counter to womder of U ? Since it can redirect the misfortune caused by WOU to toro
Love train is higher scale and can send misfortune across space/world as well as maybe time, but both are borderline reality warping
@@Saint.Topman Yeah, because the Freundschilde can take in all the calamity, and Haschwalth can convert it to good fortune for himself. Without the shield, he might actually be fucked.
The Balance is the written equivalent to changing the rules of a game you're losing. Tito made one of the greatest manga ever, but the Balance and Miracle felt like lazy writing mechanics. Even explaining how it worked had me rolling my eyes. It literally a "because I said so" power, and they will never not feel lazy in writing.
I generally agree. And Kubo missed some opportunities to make some stuff make sense.
E.g. There is one panel in the Gerald fight where Kenpachi cleaves Gerald in two, but Gerald'd body and blood are drawn back together around a quincy cross inside him.
If Kubo had better health, he could have explored the significance of thst cross in placing a limit on Gerald (or the cross simply being Gerald's only weakpoint which has to be destroyed, or something like that). As written, I actually got bored towards the end of the fight because it was going nowhere.
As for Haschwald and Balance, it felt to me that something was deemed good fortune just because Haschwald said so (e.g. cutting through the dude using Iron Skin).
@@henryviiifake8244hopefully the anime will better explain it
In light of the Cour 2 Finale, a new weakness of The Balance...before the scales weigh your position...

A full on WHAT IF series would be nice ❤ featuring The Balance
Jugram is one of my favorite quincy. His schrift is op too.
This commentatory is underrated, i can listen to this all day
Love the idea of facing the Quincy’s against each other
I still don't get why he didn't have a Volstandig.
I mean it would be even more broken but I feel like that and Uryu not having one was a lame aspect of their respective characters.
The balance is underrated as heck. A friend of mine argues that it is capable of withstanding the Almighty (pre soul king absorbed) but i don't quite agree with him. However it can be extremely useful against opponent's such as Aizen and Ichibe with their abilities too.
I think it's going to be useless against ichibei because once he got his ink on jugram it's over because he'll remove all his powers and what makes the balance works similar to what yhwach did to Gerard. Or just change the name of the balance to something else or call him a name that wouldn't allow him use his power....but that's if he knows about the ability very well though but judging his fight against yhwach he'll decimate jugram iMO. Aizen on the other hand... jugram just needs to look at him and he's finished. Gerald is the most problematic for the shinigamis iMO.
@@lexogun1311 true... However i was considering that if Jugram has his shield that will take the misfortune (which will be great in this case) he could reflect it back to Ichibe, then Ichibe will be as weak as whatever he called Jugram. Haswalth's ability seems to follow the concept of luck. So if Ichibe can some how remove the concept of luck then its still a good chance Jugram can win.
@@Libert5278 well...if it happens the way you put it then he has a chance but if ichibei can just remove your power just like yhwach did to Gerald then gg for jugram but both scenario could be possible but we'll never know now.
@@Libert5278I don't think he reflects the ability itself back, so he wouldn't change Ichibei's name, just get a very lucky shot.
He don't stand chance against Ichibei and Aizen, they surpass him by far in term of reiatsu.
You forget that physical prowess are what needs to be taken into account as well. If Gerard or Kenpachi blast or cut Haschwalth in half, there is no balance to be done there. The reason Jugram is so powerful is his shield, he needed to use it, in order to counter Antithesis and not take that much damage himself, which proves he isn't all that physically tough. A brute strength and otherworldly move from Gerard or Zaraki would end him. Actually, the combo of Haschwalth and Yhwach is what can't be beaten IMO.
Ichigo & aizen duo is better...
Cang: did you forget my ability?
Hash: my brother in Yhwach did you forget MY ABILITY
His power could also be seen as karma
No because karma and balance are complete to different things
Balance VS Miracle please
Soo if Its Aizen vs Jugram
Aizen uses Kyouka Suigetsu to put Jugram under an illusion But that would Count as a MISFORTUNE to Jugram & FORTUNE to Aizen So if Jugram Uses The BALANCE to Negate KS he could prolly give a Great Fight to Aizen , But ObV Aizen wins Because of Immortality & Hogyoku Manifesting Everything Aizen wants
I would have love to see Shunsei and Hasachwalth fight instead of what we saw in the Manga
With the visionary I can see grimly thinking “I imagine your shrift won’t have any effect on me at all” then it’s over
But that good fortune so then becomes reversed.. can’t win 😢
I think The Miracle might eventually beat out The Balance, as Gerard is a piece of the Soul King. It's something that might, forgive the pun, tip the scales.

@@Yuri-tk1oi soul king is the most unfortunately guy there is. So as soul king parts, it's actually more unfortunate than fortune
Could Jugram percieve yhwach's great power as misfortune thus tipping the scale so he could be stronger?
No, Almighty too broken for any others hax, Almighty actually control infinite possibilities. Balance percieve Almighty as "fortune", then negate almighty. All that only trigger future where Balance neg almighty, and of course, there "1 possibility" where balance neg almighty then aslo there is "1 possibility" where Balance don't trigger. And Yhwach only bring future where B doesn't trigger to infinite possibilities, so future where B trigger don't exist
@@quannguyenminh8870 true
Haschwalth himself stated that only the Antithesis can oppose the Almighty.
@@Synkroniststill, in the manga (at least me) i never freaking saw HOW IN HELL the Antithesis could oppose to The Almighty. I really hope they show this in the anime. Finger crossed.
@@theoneitself The Almighty can rewrite events.
The Antithesis can literally make the rewriting of events have the opposite effect that was originally intended.
Yhwach steals Ichigo's power for example, well, thanks to the Antithesis, he just GAVE his own power to Ichigo.
He destroys Aizen's arm, well, actually, Aizen destroyed HIS arm.
He absorbs Aizen, well actually, Aizen absorbed Yhwach.
You get the idea.
The B for haschwalth should have been the "BROKEN"
Love your content keep it up!
OOne thing I'm curious about: does the transfer of damage to the shield happen independent of Haschwalth's will, and if so; what would happen if an enemy was able to take the shield from him? I'm thinking someone like Ichigo in Bankai or Soifon going all out in speed to get in and out of his area of effect with it. Or is this a situation like with Uryu's bow where he can just form another one?
This is all assuming that there's a minor delay in The Balance taking effect and suddenly nerfing that same speed. Only ways I can think of to beat this guy would be incredibly complicated and have numerous flaws for The Balance to exploit.

Glad you enjoyed
Jugrams ability is still a mystery to me as per your previous videos you covered it quite well against his enemies. However when it is used against Uryu it gets confusing for me. But its still a very cool ability.
Don’t get me wrong I love the Quincy abilities but sometimes they are so broken and confusing. Most soul reapers can’t do shit against them and if they do win it’s sum lucky shit that happens.
The Balance was a perfect counter to the Antithesis because the latter can transfer injuries from anyone to anyone else, or maybe just any damage if inanimate objects count. This counts as good fortune, which Haschwalth would immediately turn into bad fortune, and if Uryuu kept responding with the Antithesis, Haschwalth would respond in kind and overwhelm Uryuu.
Awesome explanation!
I still don't understand why Antithesis lost so easily to the Balance.
Couldn't Uryu keep reversing the result forever?
Jurgram’s Shield increased his endurance by absorbing the Damage he takes before it PHYSICALLY hits him. Wutgout the shield, Jurgram’s endurance/toughness isn’t much. You either have to One Shot Jurgram or rid him of his Shield then attack him and out endure him (which shouldn’t be a problem for fighters like Zaraki)
it's wild how much I have to explain how busted his schrift is and people overlook it for abilities like gremmy's, which is busted as well but because of the nuance behind Haschwalth's ability, it seems to be misunderstood and overlooked.
Yes, imma that battle analysis lol
His ability is basically plot armor
In a vs we often throw mentality out of the picture. However, fights are won and lost in your mind in the world of bleach. Determination can best skill. The best skills are a labor of determination. As poetic as: To be or not to be. That is the question. Whether tis nobler in the mind to take arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing end them. On your vs can you throw in the added match within the match? You should describe why they are fighting, motivation to win can help. Destroying an opponent before they can power up, for instance. Or making the fatal mistake of feeding the opponents energy at the expense of your energy. Based on numbers alone. Balance may destroy every fiber of someone’s being interrupting the process of gaining more strength. Balance gives back the energy, plus some. What needs to be determined: How much can each person withstand, before the process is broken?
I know this video is about Shrift B (Balance), but I want to know something about Antithesis. Is it possible to use Antithesis to take/steal abilities from your enemy and give them to your friend? If I break a wooden board I can use Antithesis to swap the damage between the board and the enemy? Is it possible to use Antithesis to take away years of your enemy’s life in order to extend your own?Thank you for your attention. I will be glad if you answer my questions. Because in the anime it was shown that with the help of Antithesis you can swap the location of two objects. Shrift A and B should have been the strongest, but as shown, Balance is stronger than Antithesis.I'm not saying that Antithesis should be the strongest, but at least equal to Balance. Thanks again for your attention. I will be very glad if you answer my questions.
Hwy i will try to give my hest guess
First i think it cant swap abilities becusse the restriction is a event had to take place then its instantaneous
So whatever the effect or cause of that ability is what he can choose to reverse.
-Second the balance imo isnt stronger than antethesis, just a 1000 year old explioted a new comers and had a secondary abilty they understood to late
- Finally more about both abilities will be explained in the final cours

Hashwald's balance destroys the opponent's ability when luck happens twice can tu blocked Hitsugaya's great technique + Hasheswald's sword,
so he was hit by good luck twice, so he destroyed can tu abillty.
it due to bad luck the third time. In fact, they say, "It's a second lucky"
Informative asf
Truth is Haswalth wins against any other Quincy not named Yhwach . He's the Grand master for a reason.
Some Sternritter abilities are so crazy
That's a cool shield
Great 🤩💝
But does the balance can consider immortality as a luck for the foe and bring it to jugram to or just remove it from the owner?!

No, it literally wasn't.
@@Synkronist Uh, oh. My mistake. I thought I seen cracks on the shield and it was beginning to break.
@@danielpaladinthesage78bail11 I can understand how that could be misinterpreted, but that is clearly shown and explained to be the shield absorbing the misfortune of Jugram and reflecting it onto Uryu.
In the panels afterwards, the shield is not damaged.
Whether or not there is a limit to how much misfortune/damage the shield can take is currently not known.
Something about his broad sword fits him so well
From what I’m hearing, his abilities seems similar to the Almighty. Plus when he was able to cut and kill Cang Du, it reminds me of Kenpachi slicing Germany after he was saying “I just imagined my body being made of steel”.
Scarlet Witch: You've done well my son.
I love seeing quincy videos, please keep them coming!!!
so simply he can reverse misfortune that DIRECTLY effects him. His offense is dealing misfortune ontop of the misfortune already in place for the opponent when they put him in an unfortunate predicament
So will shunsui's bankai be counted as misfortune?
So it's not balanced.
Balance is not balanced it's balancing
I don’t know much about the in-between of the later half of TYBW. All I heard was how busted this ability is and honestly it’s amazing how “The Balance” is deliberately unbalanced as hell.
You probably would have to one shot him b4 he activate his ability 😬
I think the Balance could easily be countered in probably one of 2 ways that we'll call the direct route and indirect route. The direct route has to do with Hash's shield itself. That's the weakness. While it is able to reflect damage/misfortune, it also only reflects damage that HASH PERSONALLY SUFFFERS directly ie bodily harm or being unable to do something himself directly. However if a character, ie Kenpachi shikai, cuts/destroys just the shield directly WHILE he purposefully keeps taking damage (like he did in his Tousen bankai battle), he both can negate the fortune part of Balance (because he's not blocking incoming damage from Hash), while also attacking the shield (not Hash himself). Once the shield is negated, the Balance has nothing to reflect with, like a broken mirror. The indirect route is simply capitalizing on the other weakness that Hash himself has which is he can only misdirect fortune/misfortune "in his purview/area/vicinity". If a character "infects" Hash with an illusion, like Aizen's shikai, or a delayed "poison" such as Gin's Bankai or Mayuri's poison/paralysis (but they never physically injured Hash, just apply the status effect) and then that same character gets out of "range" of Hash's area/line of sight and is able to have the damage trigger after the fact to Hash, then there is noone/nothing nearby to reflect the Balance onto, thus Hash will have to take that damage himself. His weakness essentially is to be able to "fatally damage" when him when you're not around/after disengagement. It can't be in real time, or in a current battle with him.
He can just create another one lol... its a reishi weapon. He can just create another shield, and Kenpachi doing so would be good fortune... I'm sorry Kenpachi doesn't win this.
Yhwach absorbs Quincy's powers when he dies. Since Gremmy has already been absorbed, Hushwald can use His Majesty's power at night, so he can also use Gremmy's ability. Hashwald just can't change the future.
He cant use the ability
So he basically has Daemons reflect ability from Boruto?
Daemon is more of a damaged reversal while The Balance is more of a causality manipulation
Na his worst💀
How does the x axis vs the balance play out? One makes you straight intangible to all damage while the other makes sure to balance out any misfortune and fortune.
Edit: we would have to assume the balance itself is capable of touching the intangibility by turning him tangible. I don’t think it goes that far to the point of turning off the power
The iron was a power that it turned off
Anything you throw to jugram count as misfortune, including ichibei ink. With that, the balance throw it back to whoever did that misfortune to jugram.
Just like what jugram did to cangdu he nullified his schrift "I" the iron. And jugram did that even thou cangdu didn't attack jugram. Now, if you argue that jugram use his superior reatsu to cut cangdu that is already debunked cuz in the manga jugram clearly stated that "I see... How wonderful... Its your second good fortune... Can you see it the tilted scales?" - a clear evidence that jugram use his schrift "B" the balance to cut through cangdu body.
If jugram B didn't remove the ability of cangdu schrift, then he shouldn't be cut by jugram sword.
Therefore, same fate to what happened to Lille's intangibility.
So how it works is it just puts the misfortune from jugram to the enemy then double it. It’s still a balance because the balance was already out of place because of the enemy therefore correcting it and transferring it back so it is still a balance. At 7:13 he stated there’s a common denominator and that the balance doesn’t really balance when it actually does the balance goes out of place due to the enemy therefore the balance needs to rectify the problem so it takes away there fortune and let’s jugrsm have some it’s a bit like karma ( reap what you sow ).Yhwach would have a little problem with that considering haschwalth doesn’t have to attack to transfer to Yhwach so if he get hurt by Yhwach, there is no timeline in where Yhwach can avoid it because it just passively goes to him and the almighty only can alter
Physical attacks from different timelines. The statement of when jugram said antithesis can rival the almighty that’s because it’s a passive ability and so is the balance although Yhwach can just use alschwallen on him.
He has a power that has no limit really it could go on forever
Antithesis could indeed be stronger than Balance if used properly.
But thanks to his shield, Jurgram can take MUCH more of a beating then the individual he’s facing
@@Blad3sofWaR for sure, I suppose should have added that my first comment was presuming the two schrifts would be in completely equal Quincy. Kinda vital info I just forgot to add to my original comment Lmao.
But that just makes it power V power
Like I think, in a schrift on schrift fight, all else equal, Antithesis would overpower Balance.
Gremmy could just imagine that he didn't have "The Balance" LOL
So, you simply need to make him think that his death is fortunate- at the hands of your blade? as to end his suffering? He's quite weak then
Not at all
the anime scene of the execution was so cool wtf

Fair point. Off topic I agree with somebody's else's comment I'd gladly take a thousand ( pun \ no pun intended) worth of new expansion = expanding new lore / anime content for thousand year❤😂.
I feel like between the balance vs the miracle, it would definitely be a draw, but only in the sense that Gerard can't be killed seemingly. I think if it were a boxing match and you were scoring points though, after 12 rounds the balance would take the win.

@@DBZimran awesome! Thanks a million. It's truly a terrifying ability because not only can he defile events that have already taken place in reverse them but he can also direct any damage or anything taken between two designated targets it doesn't even have to be designated between him and the target it can be between him and another target or two other targets comparatively if you watch the Naruto the Akatsuki member heating and his ritual where he would stab himself The antithesis could do that and directed to the opponent It would be an unbeatable ability if the user was a villain opponent.

Jugram and Uryu's shrift is just basically "No U"
Actually I have to disagree with you and say Gerard is by far the easiest for Jugram to counter and defeat. Miracles are nothing but good fortune making him the most vulnerable to Jugram who just robs him of all his good fortune. We know the miracle has limits as it couldn't stop the Aushwalan. The Anti thesis also hardcore shuts down the miracle as it reverses all the fortune.
A miracle isn't just good fortune
(A miracle is an impossible event that defies natural and scientific laws)
The most it would do based on what we have seen is further damage gerard. Which again would just make him stronger and stronger. The miracles only limit is something the balance also got limited by. And the miracle has shown more applications then just damage-based
@@floppa731 it's literally all fortune. Jugram can just take the fortune and do nothing with it. Which ends Gerard.
bro really pulled up and said [my shrift is B, the BROKEN!]
If Haschwalth ever stole a bonkai whose would it be? Urahara, Shunsui, Ukitake or Byakuya?
I think it was the balance that killed haschwalt. When Uyru used the antithesis on him directly there nothing shielding him from the misfortune. So when Ywach used the ashwalen the balance tipped it to target him instead of uryu.
Jugram is immune to his own power in every case, so idk about that mate.
I think the visionary could cause a stalemate with the balance as well 🤔
Definitely not
In other terms, Jugram has the same pattern of Damnatio in Black Clover.
He gives me Barragan vibes in the sense that he controla some all powerful ability but thinks it doesn't apply to him.
If Haschwalth's fortune of victory in a single battle yielded him a greater misfortune overall, his opponent may be able to overcome The Balance. One has to wonder what circumstance could be defined in this way.
Say, if Hashwalth's family were to be killed should he win the battle.
Or if he should betray his God, should he win. (Why the Balance couldn't counteract Auchwalen)
Jugram is immune to his ability thanks to Freund Shield which will absorb the misfortune and redirect it to his opponents and strike them harder.
No lie, I like your chibi character art.
Haschwalth should just be called "B" The Broken
I always thought this ability was just stupid, like it makes no sense why it works. "Oh, you have a power? jk I turned it off" okay.... why? It's too OP
Could Gremmy just imagine The Balance not working to counter it?
Isn't that fortune for Gremmy 💀
yes, but the balance only works after said event occurs however, jugram wouldn't have the balance anymore to do anything after@@FJUVHJDSR
@@FJUVHJDSRyea but the schrift won’t be working
Honestly I always felt his power has a major problem in that it doesn't really stop someone from just stabbing him in the face
so for all his overpoweredness the counter to his ability is literally just aim for the head
Jugram said in the manga that all misfortune caused to his body will be transferred to his shield.
@@life-sf1oz Then you simply use the power the antithesis To unsummoned his shield Or break it
The actual power of the antithesis like I said was not used In the fight properly at that point the story was being rushed so it never actually got to be explored in the story what it does And its implications
jugrams got a shield that makes him invincible break a rock then transfer the brake to the shield in the shield will shatter regardless of its power
To use the antithesis properly do what would like to happen to something but do it to something else and then transfer that to what you really want to have happen to it
invincible things can be broken because you can transfer a rock's break to that actual target and no it doesn't matter if the shield is harder to break than a rock
What happens if a character severely wounds H because of pure skill and not “luck”? Would his Schrift not work?
Cang Du blocking his sword could be interpret as pure skill since Cang was capable of reacting and he was using his schrift that inherently blocks sword attacks anyway. The Balance still canceled it. Like Dbzimran, I believe Haschwalth manipulates cause and effect, and it ultimately falls onto him to determine what is luck and misfortune, which is the scary aspect of his schrift and how it can trump the Miracle, which is probability manipulation and Gerard power stems from not just from himself but the people he fights.
Another chance anyone who has the balance will always have the upper hand and the upper advantage in battle while the enemy will always have the disadvantage, and it works in a similar way to Shunsui Shikai ability..
Didn't Bazz B get stronger because of the balance when they were kids so couldn't it be something of a buff for your allys
No, he didn’t get have a schrift.
He didn't have the balance yet, Jugram is a rare "giver" type Quincy like juah although... the situation with juah is a bit different since he's the soul king's son.
