To me, seeing how this story is radically improved over the manga just goes to show that Shonen Jump getting their hands in to author's room is a blight.

Unfortunately that's not just true in Shonen Jump but the entire Industry not just in Japan but in the entire world where "We don't care if the quality is poor as long as it brings cash its Good"
My favorite aspect of Senjumaru's Bankai having overt hints at the Schutzstaffel's deaths is that it also feels like she cursed them to lose, even if Yhwach revived them.
ooh, that's an interesting perspective. Senjumaru's Bankai having hints at the Schutzstaffel's deaths could indeed symbolize a curse on their ultimate defeat, even if Yhwach revived them.
It would explain why Senjumaru was picked to use Bankai. They probably know each others abilities. Seeing how the Stern Ritters were revived before. Senjumaru was picked to curse them, thus countering any revives.
18:48 I think it’s symbolic that three of the members of squad zero have to sacrifice themselves so one of them can unleash their full power. It really works in the idea that “soul reapers have to sacrifice everything to save the Soul society” while for the squad zero “they have to sacrifice everything to protect the soul king”.
I really like the concept that the 0 Squad have to seal their true power away in order to preserve the stability of reality. And the only way to unlock that power, is to sacrifice lives. It fits very well with the whole motif of the Soul Society, that any amount of sacrifice to maintain the status quo is justified. Ichibe being the exception to this rule, also fits very well knowing what he is like.
It also brilliantly foreshadows Uryu's return to Ichigo's side! (Unlike the others, his unique banner from Senjumaru has nothing to do with dying, instead subtly spelling out what happens in the manga)
Personally I am loving Kubo's continued theme in expressing "the price of power" and how it is repeatedly being demonstrated through the Liutenent/Captains Soul Reapers, Yamamoto, and now Zero Division and why they unfortunately are all destined for Hell. The more powerful you become as a Balancer the more of a risk you yourself become to the very reality you are meant to protect just by existing. And for some reason only Hell can process these powerful souls not the current system. And even then it is a slow process. Also, one thing that had me lose my goddamn mind was Kubo's decision to turn the receiving of Aschwalen into Rain Drops. It characterizes Ywach so much and how he views himself and his power through the fragment of his soul we see inside Ichigo that is known as Zangetsu. "Ichigo.....do you know how I hate the rain?" Now we know why Ywach Zangetsu hates the rain. It's a symbol of his power. The very thing he is trying to erradicate and fears. To Ywach, the rain symbolizes death.
There is also a reason why the division zero can be revived because if one of them died it can easily disrupt the balance since one of them can shock the three realms
I think Old Man Zangetsu might inherit the Almighty i mean bruh he is op as heck if you think about it he has the same power as Ywach being able to give power to others and absorb the power of others Because he can give power to ichigo the power he took from Hollow Zangetsu 😮
kubo's theme of "the price of power" is fascinating, showcasing the risks and destinies of powerful characters. the concept of Hell processing powerful souls adds depth to the world. and the symbolism of rain for Yhwach's power is mind-blowing! it adds a new layer to his character.

With the balance being threatened in the Hell arc, it may mean that the zero squad will be able to use all of their bankai's simultaneously due to Hell being the dominant world.
Besides giving ichigo’s last bankai more time to shine, expanding the zero squad fight was the #1 thing I wanted from the anime!! My assumption is that the bankai shown from the zero squad seals each of their fates, and she uses her life for the sealing, which is why the much weaker gotei was able to win later in the series, and why the whole zero squad was dead as we see in the manga. Using their deaths to ensure victory, even against yawach.
What if the blunder of the Squad 0 fights in the manga was just Sosuke Aizen using his powers on the readers making Squad 0 look like a joke but have them revealed to be absolute tanks in the anime?
I hope by the time Ichibei regenerates his power after being revived, he joins Ichigo and Aizen in the final fight against Yhwach along with Kenpachi (being healed by Orihime) and Urahara to fight Yhwach. The 5 War Powers vs Yhwach would be such a good fight.
No need Ichibei failed VS base Yhwach Reio is far above that and Zaraki and Urahara wouldn't last nanoseconds realistically maybe Urahara can last a bit with Kanon Biraki Benihime Aratame but Zaraki can't even withstand his own power let alone use it in a fight VS Yhwach who can cancel the life subscription of any Bankai the instant it happens in the end Ishida Ichigo and Aizen are the only pieces that matter here the other 3 special war powers wouldn't make a difference and unless they nerf the heck out of Yhwach by putting limits on him it wouldn't make a lick of sense for them to even last a few minutes *at a very extreme best*
@@Force-Multipliereither they nerf juha, or, buff with additional materials the f out of the war potentials and expanding the battle scene exponentially + it shows how meta juha is.
@@Zetabita if they're gonna do something like that to prove how busted Yhwach is (for wich there isn't much need haha he earned his place) i would prefer everyone going at him in a plus plus version of what happened FKT but literally everyone who can even move going at him as he owns them as for the nerf it wouldn't make much sense since by then Yhwach would at least be able to do more than what he's gonna do to Ichibei by just opening up his eyes in cour 3 😂 most characters including the other 2 war potentials and Ichibei won't be able to take that once Ichigo is just built different
Senjumaru’s bankai is a good way to explain why the soul reapers beat the elite qunicies, as every method used was a hard counter. I think she altered the fates of the qunicies to come into contact with their hard counters
I'm pretty sure what we got in the anime is what we were supposed to get in the manga I'm glad Kubo took this opportunity to show what squad zero could really do and I don't even think they're finished yet
Fair point. Aside from surpassing normal soul reapers, lieutenants and captains, and being granted extra 🔋 powers, they've made achievements and granted some of reio powers as well. 2 add 2 your points.
10:21 I loved this addition too! It’s a great nod yo manga readers who are like “go Uryu” and a nice hint to anime only fans of his abilities. Even yhwach right hand is shown surprised at what happened (which would match the later manga scenes where Uryu comments he doenst know his ability),
Frank Sinatra's "Balls in Yo Jaws" used to play at my uncle's house all the time when I was young! I remember him picking me up in his van after t-ball practice, it was cool because it always had candy! He always had a warm popsicle in his pants too, cream-filled I think? He used to compliment me on how good I could keep secrets. The song really takes me back to a better time!
This got me curious about the actual power level of Kirio Hikifune. She was under Yamamoto when she was still the Division 12 captain. Does it mean from her tenure as captain she was much more poweful than Yamamoto or there is a significant power boost provided to whoever gets promoted to Royal Guard?
In the "Spirits Are Forever With You" novel the seventh Kenpachi, Kuruyashiki, stated that the captain of the 12th Division (i.e. Kirio Hikifune) was one of the people who can take out a small mountain sized Menos (that was taught to require several captains working together to subdue) with the same level of ease as he can. The others he listed are Yamamoto (the head captain), and the heads of the Kuchiki and Shihoin clans (members of the Five/Four Great Noble houses with abnormal spiritual pressures even for captains). Whether you consider the light novels canon is up to you, but it's interesting IMO how out of all the Zero Division, Hikifune is the one member who's combat prowess was confirmed and hyped up to be high captain class. And that was before she joined the Zero Division and presumably gotten stronger.
They will get to shine in the sun especially since Senjumaru really took everyone by storm. I like the theme of them keeping their overwhelming power in check lest they themselves cause the destabilization they are meant to prevent as their literal job. It's both sobering and ironic.
The worst thing is that they were practically off-screned - which is a plague of many mangas, where an Author embraces the limitation and decides to not show things, but rather tell
After rewatching the first 2 cours with the misses, i still believe that the zero squad should have managed to outright kill at least one YH royal guards.
I hope we get to see the other squad 0 Bankai. From how things can be the anime can provide a different story but still the same conclusion. But the 3 cour will highlight on why the Schutzstaffel is superior instead of a offscreen win.
heck yeah, I'm excited to see the other squad 0 Bankai. The anime can bring a fresh perspective while keeping the same conclusion. And a 3 cour season will showcase why the Schutzstaffel is truly superior.
@@Suto_KoFair point. Like someone said aside from the changes , added , subtracted content 🤔 99.9 percent of the old Manga was used leaving room open new stuff for cour 3 and cour 4.
It'll be more impactful and sensible if Squad 0 will go down to assist the Gotei 13 in fighting Yhwach (after obtaining Almighty and sent down the elite Quincies down to Seireitei). Also hoping for Nimaya to finally use his zanpakuto for real in cour 3
I remember one of Kuchiki family members being called into Soul king division, if it was called Zero division or not, can't remember. I assume that's not canon anymore
Someone to me made a "retarted" statement saying that zero was more powerful than old man Yami ... But there's 5 of them... If there was 5 Yami they would also destroy all 3 realms
well each member is more powerful than yama. 5 yamas would still be wekear than the 5 zero squad members. old war yama was strong but he is still significantly weaker than an individual zero squad. remembered he didnt even battle ywach alone and win. the anime clearly shows he had the help of the original gotei 13 and his lieutant to help him beat a ywach whos almighty powers were sealed.
@@raiden3013how are they individually more powerful then him because they are infused with soul king At the end of the day although the zero divison is “stronger” then whole 13 division they still win against the shutstafful who beat the zero divison
Its possible anthesis will reverse injuries of their allies onto their enemies as well Or Yhwach almighty can reset all future possibilities upon activation
@@ohreally69 Imagining and speculating allows us to explore beyond what's already explained. It's about creativity, not dismissing existing information.
As far as the "weakness" of the Zero-Division in the manga goes, I was under the impression that the Kubo was told by the manga publishers to "wrap it up," and so didn't have the opportunity to display the Zero-Division's true power the way he would have liked, which *IS* being done in the anime.
If Yamamoto was welcomed into the 0 squad & had his bones enhanced by the soul kings power I genuinely think he would be the strongest of them all, but seen as he’s not, all of them are clear of him
7 months late but Yamamoto has no feats that put him above any of the Squad 0. And regardless non of the members have their bones "enhanced" but their bones are used as a key so they can access the royal palace and all of their lives are connected through their bones as well
@@ZikoraRCHS says it in the anime & manga, their bones were transformed into the Ouken by the Soul Kings power, interpret that how you will 👌🏾, also this isn’t really about Yamamoto comparing to them right now, he’s definetely atleast a bit of a tier below, I’m just saying with all the perks they get (half of which they’ve created for themselves) if he was a 0 squad member I imagine he would be a monster
I'm not mocking Zimran's accent, I'm just loving that he pronounced the name as Nianzel Weasel ^___^ Excellent video as always. This once again proves that in the case of TYBW, the animes is so much superior to the manga ^^
It technically means that every single one of them is literally stronger than yamamato if not for the seal and it also means that if all of them if able to use their bankai they would easily defeat the sterniters and possibly even yahwach.
even that still way superior in the anime (I really love episode 26), the Zero Division still gonna look less powerfull because the Gotei 13 are gonna fight the quincy royal guards by the end. At least if Kubo change in the anime, if he do a completely new situation than The Zero Division are not gonna look less powerful
Senju and Ichibe are a total badasses, I'm still not so sure about the rest of them. Senju is one of my favorite characters period now. She's like a female version of Kenpachi, but with a dark, elegant, and graceful style. I especially love how she opened.
At least the anime done Squad Zero some justice. The fact they were holding back the entire time and one of the 4 members can only go all out if the other 3 dies is possibly what Kubo wanted. Had Shonen Jump not interfered the Thousand Year Warfare arc would be a lot better on the manga. Can't wait for next year when Part 3 drops.
@@DBZimranthe animation was great considering how much understaffed they were and with no action animators this cour and these much shit schedule,Hope they take their time and get more animators as no competition of big anime will be there as many big anime will end till december.

The bankai and new fights was great edition I hope the team keep delivering more new content for part 3 and back storys for the Quincys because they deserve more love
I personally want to see nimaiyas full power because i think as the blacksmith of the shinigami he does actually have his own Zanpakuto because he never states that sayafushi is his Zanpakuto its just one of the many he has created and we have seen from the sword 5 and that hall of manifested Zanpakuto women that he can seemingly create full fleged Zanpapakuto that are thier own spirits with thier own unique abilites and forms without a owner so i think if he was able to utilizes his full power he could just spawn any Zanpakuto into existance and use it in battle
I would love to see nimaiya unused zanpakutou Like in the novel there is this broken Hollow that got turned into a zanpakutou called ikimikidomoe it is so powerful yamamoto was only able to defeat it using bankai and it was a hard fight There might be some other broken sword beside that
@@colasevenseas5652yea ive read the novels, That would also be dope to see but i don't think he could use it because of the hollow and also wasn't it stated that only soul king hybrids like Ichigo and Hikone can wield Ikomikidomoe
nimaiya's full power and ability to create unique Zanpakuto is intriguing. It would be fascinating to see him unleash his true potential and summon various Zanpakuto in battle.
Why yamamoto wasn't promoted to the zero division ? he founded the gotei 13 and some of the zero division members were captain of the gotei before. Yamamoto was the embodiment of soul society history he met all the requirements
@@elyaspoellnitz6163 Yamamoto founded the Shin'ō Academy, which trained prospective Shinigami in the four arts and prepare them to be part of either the Onmitsukido, Kido corp or Gotei 13. Speaking of Gotei 13, he founded that too. Hence, like the zero division, Aizen called Yamamoto "the living embodiment of Soul Society's history".
Zero division were amazing. Wish list: Ukitake having more to do besides sacrificing himself only to die immediately. - perhaps fight and Bankai Better fate to surviving sterntitter besides dying almost immediately after confronting Y.H. Better Bazz B payoff as his manga battle was very one sided. Isshin/Ryuken contribution. They seemed so random in anime. More grimjow/nel content! Ichigo /Uryu fight or at least Ichigo Bankai. Longer Aizen/Y.H battle Rewarding conclusion to komomura arc. Maybe playing a small part in taking Y. H . Down. Cleaner conclusion to the battle. I know I’m asking a lot and I’m sure I’m missing more, but it seems that there will be room for roughly 7-9 episodes worth of anime exclusive scenes.
I agree. And i mean i don't think that's asking for alot. These are literally the things that should've happened in the manga. Other than maybe the point with Bazz. I don't think the fight should be equal. Wouldn't make sense imo. But yeah, - Ukitake will def play a role they were already hinting at it. - I always thought even back then reading the manga that Isshin and Ryuken will jump in the fight against Sk Yhwach. Imagine that happening and Isshin using Bankai and Ryuken showing something new/special and proving being the "last Quincy" 😂 - would love to see Grim and Nel do more. Right now i have no idea what they could do though - Ichigo Uryu will most probably happen - More Aizen Yhwach. Would def love to see that. Probably most - Cleaner conclusion should def happen imo. It's nesseary
@@metalguard4Think 😮 it would be crazy cool on Ryuken part to step in on Uryu behalf and fight Jugram like a show down of the Quincies second in command .vs. Ryuken, the last student of Isoke excuse my awful 😖 spelling.
So basically anime fans love to say whats canon and what isnt it's not canon and doesn't matter and if its does its just what a lot of people say, its just people picking and choosing if something is accepted if they like it or not.
Woah hold up a sec those battles szutstafl vs the shinigami weren’t realy basic though … I think Kubo was trying to say that itl take a lot of effort to beat them … PERNIDA vs Mayuri is complicated … urahara vs askin comes down to a lot more then one person … lilli barro vs shinsuei comes down to something that kills a god…. An Gerard is an asspull
so the zero-division took a note from kenpachi? sealing thier power to enjoy the life?😄 also, i think these weren't changes in the anime with the zero division power kubo just couldn't add it in the manga in time. in fact Kubo had foreshadowed the power of the zero division in the arrancar arc... aizen knew of the power of the zero-division since he modeled the espada powers similarly ..uliqiorra said that the four highest ranking espada if unleash their true power inside las noches (the fake world) would had destroy it.. similarly none of the zero division members can release their true power in any one of the worlds
Where in the manga or did it state that each zero division individual have the combined strength of the 13 court guards it literally dates the combined forces of zero Divison Also Yamamoto destroys one world Senjumaru shakes 3 not destroys
Yeah I keep seeing this oversight. I guess it's an easy mistake. Zero Squad is ok but I still love Gotei 13 more. They're personalities and struggles are better. And I rather see them grow and change.
@@elyaspoellnitz6163What you mean Zoer squad didn't win they're also still alive and have Yhwach corpse at the end of the day. Also the the Gotei 13 them self didn't beat all the Schutzstaffel they were losing to Gerard and the one toa beat Askin aren't part of the Gotei 13.
Kubo is helping with the writing in the anime...so he got the chance to fix it, and give the finger to the editors rushing him. G'wan Kubo, yeh good thing!
I think the anime totally fixed the Zero Division. But I want to know how how the anime will handle the rest of the Ichibe vs Yhwach fight. And then know where everyone of the Zero Division will be because after their defeat in the manga we never see them again when the Royal palace becomes WharWelt.
My wish is for the final battle against yhwach to be monumental, throw everyone and everything at him and then have Ichigo and aizen flex there bankai on him before his defeat
I was actually always thinking back in days it would be dope of Kubo would've thrown Isshin and Ryuken into the fight. The we could've also seen Isshins Bankai and maybe something new/special from the real "last Quincy" 😂

Very cool and hot thumbnail for Senjumommi plus Squad 0 finally given due justice
That was a amazing break down ,enjoyed every minute.
As soon as Senjumaru healed Oetsu, I knew, with absolute glee, that things were changing. Ooooh, those last two episodes blew my mind throughout.
What if the blunder of the Squad 0 fights in the manga was just Sosuke Aizen using his powers on the readers making Squad 0 look like a joke but have them revealed to be absolute tanks in the anime?
Nah it's just the manga being non-canon as usual
I hope by the time Ichibei regenerates his power after being revived, he joins Ichigo and Aizen in the final fight against Yhwach along with Kenpachi (being healed by Orihime) and Urahara to fight Yhwach. The 5 War Powers vs Yhwach would be such a good fight.
That sounds so cool
No need
Ichibei failed VS base Yhwach
Reio is far above that
and Zaraki and Urahara wouldn't last nanoseconds realistically
maybe Urahara can last a bit with Kanon Biraki Benihime Aratame
but Zaraki can't even withstand his own power let alone use it in a fight VS Yhwach who can cancel the life subscription of any Bankai the instant it happens
in the end Ishida Ichigo and Aizen are the only pieces that matter here the other 3 special war powers wouldn't make a difference and unless they nerf the heck out of Yhwach by putting limits on him it wouldn't make a lick of sense for them to even last a few minutes *at a very extreme best*
@@ayaanmirza23005it sounds perfect, the quincy lord self hyped 5 war potential vs him
@@Force-Multipliereither they nerf juha, or, buff with additional materials the f out of the war potentials and expanding the battle scene exponentially + it shows how meta juha is.
@@Zetabita if they're gonna do something like that to prove how busted Yhwach is (for wich there isn't much need haha he earned his place)
i would prefer everyone going at him in a plus plus version of what happened FKT but literally everyone who can even move going at him as he owns them
as for the nerf it wouldn't make much sense since by then Yhwach would at least be able to do more than what he's gonna do to Ichibei by just opening up his eyes in cour 3 😂
most characters including the other 2 war potentials and Ichibei won't be able to take that once Ichigo is just built different
Senjumaru’s bankai is a good way to explain why the soul reapers beat the elite qunicies, as every method used was a hard counter. I think she altered the fates of the qunicies to come into contact with their hard counters
I'm pretty sure what we got in the anime is what we were supposed to get in the manga I'm glad Kubo took this opportunity to show what squad zero could really do and I don't even think they're finished yet
Fair point. Aside from surpassing normal soul reapers, lieutenants and captains, and being granted extra 🔋 powers, they've made achievements and granted some of reio powers as well. 2 add 2 your points.
That, and the fact that the anime is canon is just the cherry on top
I loved this video! The music was also on point! Redemption indeed!
10:21 I loved this addition too! It’s a great nod yo manga readers who are like “go Uryu” and a nice hint to anime only fans of his abilities. Even yhwach right hand is shown surprised at what happened (which would match the later manga scenes where Uryu comments he doenst know his ability),
W senjumaru fan art choice... That's true does senjumaru have normal arms?😂😂😂
Frank Sinatra's "Balls in Yo Jaws" used to play at my uncle's house all the time when I was young! I remember him picking me up in his van after t-ball practice, it was cool because it always had candy! He always had a warm popsicle in his pants too, cream-filled I think? He used to compliment me on how good I could keep secrets. The song really takes me back to a better time!
This got me curious about the actual power level of Kirio Hikifune. She was under Yamamoto when she was still the Division 12 captain. Does it mean from her tenure as captain she was much more poweful than Yamamoto or there is a significant power boost provided to whoever gets promoted to Royal Guard?
I think there is a Significant power boost cuz Ichibei stated they have Reio's power
In the "Spirits Are Forever With You" novel the seventh Kenpachi, Kuruyashiki, stated that the captain of the 12th Division (i.e. Kirio Hikifune) was one of the people who can take out a small mountain sized Menos (that was taught to require several captains working together to subdue) with the same level of ease as he can. The others he listed are Yamamoto (the head captain), and the heads of the Kuchiki and Shihoin clans (members of the Five/Four Great Noble houses with abnormal spiritual pressures even for captains).
Whether you consider the light novels canon is up to you, but it's interesting IMO how out of all the Zero Division, Hikifune is the one member who's combat prowess was confirmed and hyped up to be high captain class. And that was before she joined the Zero Division and presumably gotten stronger.
Squad zero position is not only about power. Hiriko might get a power boost because after she live in the soul king realm
🐢 The infamous Turtle Club scene in the film The Master Of Disguise was filmed during 911 ✈️
I really hated the fact that Kubo was rushed doing the manga
Senjumaru's voice made me awaken my zanpakuto. "Rise, Kyodaina Penisu!!!!!!"
💀
They will get to shine in the sun especially since Senjumaru really took everyone by storm. I like the theme of them keeping their overwhelming power in check lest they themselves cause the destabilization they are meant to prevent as their literal job. It's both sobering and ironic.
The worst thing is that they were practically off-screned - which is a plague of many mangas, where an Author embraces the limitation and decides to not show things, but rather tell
It's been a while since manga readers praised so much of the anime adaptation
After rewatching the first 2 cours with the misses, i still believe that the zero squad should have managed to outright kill at least one YH royal guards.
I hope we get to see the other squad 0 Bankai. From how things can be the anime can provide a different story but still the same conclusion.
But the 3 cour will highlight on why the Schutzstaffel is superior instead of a offscreen win.
Yeah the miracle will awaken
The antithesis will reverse the bankai and the balance will turn the table
heck yeah, I'm excited to see the other squad 0 Bankai. The anime can bring a fresh perspective while keeping the same conclusion. And a 3 cour season will showcase why the Schutzstaffel is truly superior.
@@Suto_KoFair point. Like someone said aside from the changes , added , subtracted content 🤔 99.9 percent of the old Manga was used leaving room open new stuff for cour 3 and cour 4.
exactly, lots of potential for new content in cour 3 and 4 while still utilizing much of the original manga. @@AJ-kt5zo
Glad the anime is fixing most things wrong with the manga
Is it true that senjumaru doesn't have any hands and arms.
It's never shown,it's more like she holds her self wrapped like fajitas
Oetsu's clothing was also restored.
I did thought why the 3 realms didn't tremble when ichibei used bankai now I know there was a reason. thanks.
We did it boys, the Squad Zero slander is no more.
That and Kubo cooked.
The thumbnail 😳
Is so beautiful. 😍
Hell arc would be a perfect set up for an all out tournament arc, using so many dead characters plus characters we only heard of
Senjumommy 🤩
It'll be more impactful and sensible if Squad 0 will go down to assist the Gotei 13 in fighting Yhwach (after obtaining Almighty and sent down the elite Quincies down to Seireitei). Also hoping for Nimaya to finally use his zanpakuto for real in cour 3
I remember one of Kuchiki family members being called into Soul king division, if it was called Zero division or not, can't remember. I assume that's not canon anymore
Im pretty sure it was but the story is filler
They use canon material and extend them into a filler arc i think
Someone to me made a "retarted" statement saying that zero was more powerful than old man Yami ... But there's 5 of them... If there was 5 Yami they would also destroy all 3 realms
well each member is more powerful than yama. 5 yamas would still be wekear than the 5 zero squad members. old war yama was strong but he is still significantly weaker than an individual zero squad. remembered he didnt even battle ywach alone and win. the anime clearly shows he had the help of the original gotei 13 and his lieutant to help him beat a ywach whos almighty powers were sealed.
@@raiden3013how are they individually more powerful then him because they are infused with soul king
At the end of the day although the zero divison is “stronger” then whole 13 division they still win against the shutstafful who beat the zero divison
nah, man, that's a silly statement. Five Yami would definitely wreak havoc in all three realms.
have to see how the anime plays it out since the scenes will be a true showing of how the arc is supposed to end.@@elyaspoellnitz6163

Bleach Brave Souls have been my favourite Bleach game since over 8 years ago on 2015 when I've played it first time as a kid. 😊❤
imagine if all Squad 0 of them release their Bankai at the same time?
That would shake the world to a point beyond repair.
It would destroy the soul palace
They clearly said in the anime what would happen if they do that,we don't have to imagine
Its possible anthesis will reverse injuries of their allies onto their enemies as well
Or
Yhwach almighty can reset all future possibilities upon activation
@@ohreally69 Imagining and speculating allows us to explore beyond what's already explained. It's about creativity, not dismissing existing information.
how about a top strongest character list of every canon arc?
As far as the "weakness" of the Zero-Division in the manga goes, I was under the impression that the Kubo was told by the manga publishers to "wrap it up," and so didn't have the opportunity to display the Zero-Division's true power the way he would have liked, which *IS* being done in the anime.
One day I'll watch it. Hopefully before ichigo's son gets animated. Thank you for your coverage and insight.
If Yamamoto was welcomed into the 0 squad & had his bones enhanced by the soul kings power I genuinely think he would be the strongest of them all, but seen as he’s not, all of them are clear of him
7 months late but Yamamoto has no feats that put him above any of the Squad 0. And regardless non of the members have their bones "enhanced" but their bones are used as a key so they can access the royal palace and all of their lives are connected through their bones as well
@@ZikoraRCHS says it in the anime & manga, their bones were transformed into the Ouken by the Soul Kings power, interpret that how you will 👌🏾, also this isn’t really about Yamamoto comparing to them right now, he’s definetely atleast a bit of a tier below, I’m just saying with all the perks they get (half of which they’ve created for themselves) if he was a 0 squad member I imagine he would be a monster
Kubo trolled us and himself....... what a moment!
I'm not mocking Zimran's accent, I'm just loving that he pronounced the name as Nianzel Weasel ^___^
Excellent video as always. This once again proves that in the case of TYBW, the animes is so much superior to the manga ^^
It technically means that every single one of them is literally stronger than yamamato if not for the seal and it also means that if all of them if able to use their bankai they would easily defeat the sterniters and possibly even yahwach.
Bro is down bad with those senjumaru thumbnails
Y'know, the thumbnail's got me thinking...
Does Senjumaru even have real arms anymore? If they're there do they function properly or not at all?
Same bro
So are they like the strongest? 5 gods guarding the Soul King?
even that still way superior in the anime (I really love episode 26), the Zero Division still gonna look less powerfull because the Gotei 13 are gonna fight the quincy royal guards by the end. At least if Kubo change in the anime, if he do a completely new situation than The Zero Division are not gonna look less powerful
omg guys! kubo(the author) said that quincy are smart and they always have a strategy. it was wayyy back before the anime started.
Senju and Ichibe are a total badasses, I'm still not so sure about the rest of them. Senju is one of my favorite characters period now. She's like a female version of Kenpachi, but with a dark, elegant, and graceful style. I especially love how she opened.
i hope they explain the silver blood dagger more greatly instead of it seeming like a plot point
I saw senjumaru I click
Can't wait for the next season
✌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏼👌✌🏻
From here on out, im sure it will be very different from the manga.
At least the anime done Squad Zero some justice. The fact they were holding back the entire time and one of the 4 members can only go all out if the other 3 dies is possibly what Kubo wanted. Had Shonen Jump not interfered the Thousand Year Warfare arc would be a lot better on the manga. Can't wait for next year when Part 3 drops.
Yhwach vs Ichibee was so underwhelming compared to them they had to redo it probably they definitely will extend it in cour 3
Yo, what was the thumbnail?
Hey DBZimran what are thoughts on the Shonen jump manga series Undead Unluck.
Bro whats ur opinion abt cour 2 animation in entire cause to me it was good but there were stiffness at many scenes
the anime staff did the best that they could with the time that was given. They will do fixes for stuff you're upset about for the Blu-Ray.
@@DBZimranthe animation was great considering how much understaffed they were and with no action animators this cour and these much shit schedule,Hope they take their time and get more animators as no competition of big anime will be there as many big anime will end till december.
if my memories were correct I remember that the last arc of Bleach was rush due to the author's health condition. I still love this series especially ichijo end with orihime and having a son.
The bankai and new fights was great edition I hope the team keep delivering more new content for part 3 and back storys for the Quincys because they deserve more love
Story should unironically just end here. They fuck around and find out.
The anime is justice!
this anime knows how to treat characters way more than toei does with dragon ball 😂
The only thing I'll say is... I'm DEFINITELY not simping for Senjumaru.
Right now everything can happen , Kudo have time to do everything right 🎉
Finally this is what we’ve been wanting
UUUUOOOOGGGHHH DOLL MOMMY 😭😭😭😭
I personally want to see nimaiyas full power because i think as the blacksmith of the shinigami he does actually have his own Zanpakuto because he never states that sayafushi is his Zanpakuto its just one of the many he has created and we have seen from the sword 5 and that hall of manifested Zanpakuto women that he can seemingly create full fleged Zanpapakuto that are thier own spirits with thier own unique abilites and forms without a owner so i think if he was able to utilizes his full power he could just spawn any Zanpakuto into existance and use it in battle
I would love to see nimaiya unused zanpakutou
Like in the novel there is this broken Hollow that got turned into a zanpakutou called ikimikidomoe it is so powerful yamamoto was only able to defeat it using bankai and it was a hard fight
There might be some other broken sword beside that
@@colasevenseas5652yea ive read the novels, That would also be dope to see but i don't think he could use it because of the hollow and also wasn't it stated that only soul king hybrids like Ichigo and Hikone can wield Ikomikidomoe
@@undeade.t7044 oh true
nimaiya's full power and ability to create unique Zanpakuto is intriguing. It would be fascinating to see him unleash his true potential and summon various Zanpakuto in battle.
Hopefully they will not rush to the end of the story.
Why yamamoto wasn't promoted to the zero division ? he founded the gotei 13 and some of the zero division members were captain of the gotei before. Yamamoto was the embodiment of soul society history he met all the requirements
Zero divison was founded by creating something important to soil society
Like mod souls
Auschi
The soul reaper attire
It’s not based on strength
@@elyaspoellnitz6163
Yamamoto founded the Shin'ō Academy, which trained prospective Shinigami in the four arts and prepare them to be part of either the Onmitsukido, Kido corp or Gotei 13. Speaking of Gotei 13, he founded that too.
Hence, like the zero division, Aizen called Yamamoto "the living embodiment of Soul Society's history".
Zero division were amazing.
Wish list:
Ukitake having more to do besides sacrificing himself only to die immediately. - perhaps fight and Bankai
Better fate to surviving sterntitter besides dying almost immediately after confronting Y.H.
Better Bazz B payoff as his manga battle was very one sided.
Isshin/Ryuken contribution. They seemed so random in anime.
More grimjow/nel content!
Ichigo /Uryu fight or at least Ichigo Bankai.
Longer Aizen/Y.H battle
Rewarding conclusion to komomura arc. Maybe playing a small part in taking Y. H . Down.
Cleaner conclusion to the battle.
I know I’m asking a lot and I’m sure I’m missing more, but it seems that there will be room for roughly 7-9 episodes worth of anime exclusive scenes.
I agree. And i mean i don't think that's asking for alot. These are literally the things that should've happened in the manga.
Other than maybe the point with Bazz. I don't think the fight should be equal. Wouldn't make sense imo.
But yeah,
- Ukitake will def play a role they were already hinting at it.
- I always thought even back then reading the manga that Isshin and Ryuken will jump in the fight against Sk Yhwach. Imagine that happening and Isshin using Bankai and Ryuken showing something new/special and proving being the "last Quincy" 😂
- would love to see Grim and Nel do more. Right now i have no idea what they could do though
- Ichigo Uryu will most probably happen
- More Aizen Yhwach. Would def love to see that. Probably most
- Cleaner conclusion should def happen imo. It's nesseary
@@muchoyurdem5260 oh and most of Uryu and jugram fight was off screen.

The moment Senjumaru revived Oetsu I went "Yeeeahhhh f outta here with that Zero division in the manga" 😀😀😀😀😀
So basically anime fans love to say whats canon and what isnt it's not canon and doesn't matter and if its does its just what a lot of people say, its just people picking and choosing if something is accepted if they like it or not.
me waiting for the other 3 bankai and shikai's 😂😂😂 still love senjumommy tho ❤❤❤
Never forget the writer kubo got sick while writing this arc.
Woah hold up a sec those battles szutstafl vs the shinigami weren’t realy basic though … I think Kubo was trying to say that itl take a lot of effort to beat them … PERNIDA vs Mayuri is complicated … urahara vs askin comes down to a lot more then one person … lilli barro vs shinsuei comes down to something that kills a god…. An Gerard is an asspull
Yo question for yall chimera ant arc or tybw
so the zero-division took a note from kenpachi? sealing thier power to enjoy the life?😄 also, i think these weren't changes in the anime with the zero division power kubo just couldn't add it in the manga in time. in fact Kubo had foreshadowed the power of the zero division in the arrancar arc... aizen knew of the power of the zero-division since he modeled the espada powers similarly ..uliqiorra said that the four highest ranking espada if unleash their true power inside las noches (the fake world) would had destroy it.. similarly none of the zero division members can release their true power in any one of the worlds
kubo took zero squad out of the fraud division and yeeted Yamamoto right on into it.
Where in the manga or did it state that each zero division individual have the combined strength of the 13 court guards it literally dates the combined forces of zero Divison
Also Yamamoto destroys one world
Senjumaru shakes 3 not destroys
Yeah I keep seeing this oversight. I guess it's an easy mistake.
Zero Squad is ok but I still love Gotei 13 more. They're personalities and struggles are better.

kubo will fix even more things there are more episodes then chapters left
I think the anime totally fixed the Zero Division. But I want to know how how the anime will handle the rest of the Ichibe vs Yhwach fight. And then know where everyone of the Zero Division will be because after their defeat in the manga we never see them again when the Royal palace becomes WharWelt.
Are you saying car 1 and car 2 or you saying part 1 and part 2 I really can’t tell it really sounds like you saying car
I'm saying cour
Idk why but I just can’t see anyone in the zero division beating the head captain besides ichibe. I think I spelled it wrong lol
My wish is for the final battle against yhwach to be monumental, throw everyone and everything at him and then have Ichigo and aizen flex there bankai on him before his defeat
Yeah like in mha where they send all the heroes to stop all for one
Or like when the entire shinobi alliance fight madara
One vs everyone
