How Aizen and Tsukishima COUNTERED Yhwach's Almighty, Explained | BLEACH Discussion
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 авг 2024
- Yhwach's The Almighty was a nearly unstoppable ability, allowing him to see the future and also change it as well. However, two of Ichigo's greatest enemies, Aizen and Tsukishima, were able to use their abilities to confound The Almighty and help save the day. In this video, I want to explore exactly how their abilities worked to circumvent the Quincy King's power.

What did you think of The Almighty as an ability in the series? Too broken, or fitting for Yhwach?
It was quite broken, but if it wasn't more broken than aizens kyoka suigetsu it would have felt like a let down
I find unbeatable powers rather boring. The Almighty needed some sort of blind spot to exploit, something more interesting than still silver.
It was high-level meta stuff, and regardless of the way Bleach tied up in the end, I loved Tsukishima and Aizen's contributions. WRT Aizen's comment at Yhwach seeing Ichigo, I think it refers to the fact that Aizen was so steadfast in every possible future at casting KS on Yhwach, that in one of the futures Yhwach was looking at (i.e. at the point where he stopped using his actual EYES and was instead leaning on his Almighty Eyes throughout), that Alternate Aizen had cast himself as Ichigo, the human brat. Either that or he was just interested by the results of the power interaction. 🤷♂️
It is indeed incredibly broken, but as something that is implied he inherited from his father, the godly Soul King, it is fitting.
I actually subscribe to an entire theory that The Almighty was more loyal to the SK than to Yhwach, and that it allowed Yhwach to lose because that's what the SK wanted. Makes sense especially considering the numerous highly unlikely longshots that had to happen at once to defeat Yhwach.
@@Timjer92
What you said said makes sense, but I really wanted to know what's going on in that guy's head hahahahah
So basically Ichigo uses two of his enemies one that controls the past and one that controls the present to defeat to one that controls the future.
More like wrapping reality for Aizen
Weeell shiiiit that's like poetic
@@kenfern2259 Its not though. Its perfect hypnosis. The illusions he creates feel real, look real, they might even taste real but theyre still just illusions.
@@jdizzy192 isnt dat how reality warp works,he creates things the way he wants u to see this.
@@kenfern2259 No. Reality warp would be if he actually affected reality, not someone's perception of reality.
Tsukishima: remember when you didn't break Ichigos sword?
Aizen: Look at Ichigo, now look at me, now back at Ichigo, now look back at me. I am not your Ichigo.
Those two be like you ain't worthy of being a villain
I feel like this is referring to something I'm supposed to know but I can't recall what show or movie, so annoying!
Someone please help! 😭

So basically Ywach's downfall was because he had tunnel vision.

@@ddb1014 dog 😂😂😂😂😂😂
So imagine how clever Gin was for discovering the weakness of Kyoka Suigetsu. Sadly though, he took the secret to his grave. Aizen also made sure to ally with Tosen, the only soulreaper who cannot be affected by Kyoka Suigetsu. Ah Bleach...gonna watch you again.
I mean the thing is since Aizen fused with his sword the weakness doesn’t even exist anymore since well it’s sort of him now and all you have to do is look at him to be affected.And tbh I doubt Aizen ever regarded Tousen as a threat.Aizen with his immense power could just nullify tousen s bankai and on top of that his stats are way higher then tousens.Not even hollow tousen would stand a chance.
cause Tosen's blind right?
@@jmfordaliza3139 Yup! One of the requisites for Kyoka Suigetsu to take effect is that the victim needs to see the zanpakuto during the casting of the illusion.
@@alexrodriguez7389 I think the weakness is still there as proven by Gin touching the sword and not being affected by the illusion. But regardless whether you see the illusion or not, you will still end up minced meat when Aizen starts swinging. Haha!
Bruh only anime I’ve watched twice all the way through (besides filler) I’ve seen once lol
Kyoka Suigetsu is, in a way, a hard counter to the Almighty. To fall under the influence of Kyoka Suigetsu you have to SEE its release initially, just for once. Yhwach can see too much with his Almighty and thus is highly susceptible to Kyoka Suigetsu. Aizen could not have wished for an easier opponent. There is no way Yhwach could have NOT fallen under hypnosis.
All powers he sees no longer work on him and literally become his to control only reason it worked is because he was u der its influence before he used the almighty not that it makes a difference. Aizen literally did nothing in the grand scheme lf things. At best you could say he stalled for a couple of minutes.
@@awesomeguy183 actually Aizen played a big role in the win
@@sanchochingon3194 All he did was stall for time. And Ywach monologing and playing with Ichigo did just as much.
awesomeguy183 I think the big thing IS that he used Kyoka before Yhwach used the almighty
Metroid Hatcher ima just go by speculation and say he can do that.. since he is the hokyoku and vise versa. IF SO.. yhwach would never know all the futures he’s seeing at that point are hallucinations. Since he never knew he was under kyoka.. (hell even aizen didn’t know it worked) that makes it the perfect anti to the almighty.
Just goes to show how terrifying aizens power is basically manipulating a god
false god, play god
Well considering that in the light novel, it was actually revealed that Hogyoku was part of the Soul King, it's fitting that he was able to manipulate essentially the "god" of the verse.
Matt wait wot? So kisuke didn't invent the hogyoku? AHHH DONT TELL ME. I'm outta here.
@@zack1140 he did. Just with part of the soul king
Don't forget Ichibe did say that Aizen would have won if he was able to get to the soul palace
Yhwach saw 14,000,605 futures where he won but didn't see the 1 where he lost.
Crazy thing is he saw the future where he lost. He just dismissed it as a dream.
@@chrisb359 that's true, I totally forgot about that.
Well Haschwald saw it and sent it to him as a dream.
Marvel avengers
@@chrisb359 that means he's not omniscient
Another theory of why Ichigo's sword didn't break was that that was Aizen's illusion too. So Ywach missed the mark. Later on you see Aizen's sword be cracked in the same way.
The real ichigo was only the one who stabbed yhwach in the back, the other were aizen in 3 different places in the same time (aizen, ichigo and renji).
That means Aizen has transcended that Almighty...!?
@@hyperDarklord13 no, aizen used kyoka suigetsu in the first invasion so yhwach was under hypnosis way before he activated the almighty. Once a person falls in hypnosis aizen can use it everytime without problem but with yhwach worked only because he was already under hypnosis. If aizen used it after he activated the almighty the first time (when yhwach fought ichibe) it wouldn't work because the almighty can counter every power but not something that happened in the past. He didn't transcend the almighty, he was lucky and smart because he put him under hypnosis the first time he met yhwach, even in the last fight aizen admitted that he wasn't sure that kyokasuigetsu could work on yhwach and had to try before ichigo arrived.
AMAZING explanation. It makes lots of sense, dude!!!
Making the Villain Almighty... what a Noob Mistake.
Seriously, the Sternritter were mostly Broken, all of them, but literally giving multiple ones, including the Boss-Villain, the
abilitiy to "just be invincible, duh." is such a Noob Mistake.
How much of a Noob is Kubo please?
@@slevinchannel7589 keep lying pathetic troll
@@chawli2782 pretty sure he's pissed that alot of people reads Kubo's works but not his(if he even has any) XD.
@@derplololol9717 or yall are fanboys/girls who dick ride poor story telling....
I mean jesus just in this the situation makes 0 sense. If yhwach broke his sword, as he did and to that extent. Then Tsukishima's ability should not work. The logic contradicts itself right there as Yhwach would have seen such a situation when he initially broke it.
@@zephirol4638 can you comprehend powers and they can counter each other?.
I felt like Aizen was training ichigo indirectly helping him get stronger the whole series in a sick and twisted way.
This is exactly what happened, he knew about Juha and his past, that's why he wanted to kill soul king and he also prolly wanted to take his place or if Ichigo defeats him so then Ichigo taking his place.
One thing‘s for sure, Aizen DIRECTLY, and purposely, helped him get stronger up until their final battle. And it was sick and twisted lol
@@jessew.5284 it never felt like he really wanted to kill him more like he wanted the hardest challenge without the Influence of is sword
He literally says he did this in the fake karakura arc.
@@ihateflatbunz Aizen just wanted a rival. "Aizen sad boy, Aizen smash!"
Tsukishima is my favorite also very underrated. he is in story like from start guided and trained ichigo in first arc. defeated 3 captains in rukia rescue arc. opened the gate of hueco mundo in arrancar arc. sealed aizen in fake karakura arc but everyone give him credit for just fixing ichigo's bankai. i mean its not fair. he is one of the main charecters cmon
You are crazy
My boy cut you real good lmao
Yeah man, people just ignore his hardwork
damn....you almost got me..
Hahahahahah
I always thought that Aizen saying "Amusing..." was just him kinda picking on the Quincy King...it was like him saying " I guess your All Mighty isnt as Mighty as you think"
Tsukishima really is underrated. I still love how Aizen trolled Ywach at the start. Renji never being there is something i never thought of, interesting
I really hope they can expand this in the anime. Kubo had to end it so quickly which made it so chaotic.
I love that Aizen stayed relevant in a way that made sense. Dude was a complete boss.
Dude can you explain to me ?? to be honest i didn't understand that last few chapters ... Ichigo finished it and Uryu shot an arrow, Did Aizen pull off any tricks at the end that I missed?
@@syedzarghamalijaffery2331aizens power messes with the present pretty much and makes you see stuff that isn’t real example when the captains stab momo thinking it was aizen so he messed with ywach visions and perception
I remember when ywach first started flexing his almighty we all thought tsukishima would be the one to stop him since one changes the past and the other changes the future
Trueee
Well because burn the witch is extended universe kubo can do anything he wants honestly
I personally believe that The Arrow could potentially be an anomaly that Yhwach could not see or predict because it nullifies his powers. Or, perhaps, Uryu’s power of The Antithesis was able to counteract The Almighty by nullifying Yhwach’s ability to predict what Uryu would do.
That's what I thought. He can't see anything regarding the arrow, and Uryu hit himself with it and then used antithesis.
Doesn't stop the arrow from being a huge asspull though. It could've been foreshadowed and better explained with more time, and required "effort" to get the arrow.
Also, it could've permanently stopped almighty. So now it's a fair battle between Ichigo and Yhwach instead of Ichigo one hit KO.
The antithesis is able to nope anything and give all negs to the other person by choice.
I mean, the antithesis of ''seeing all futures'' is ''not seeing all futures'', so I guess it would make sense. Yhwach himself said Uryu could surpass him, so maybe he never could really see anything the Antithesis was going to do.
That is why Haschwalth insisted on facing Uryuu himself. The Almighty was a bad matchup for Ywach, but a good one for him.
@@Vini-zv3lr doesn't antithesis work by completely switching everything that happens between point A & point B instead of just nullifying everything he wants by turning it into the opposite??
Can we talk about how Aizen still hasn’t used his bankai, EVEN against “The Almighty”?? Aizen “s bankai must be broken af.
Or he has countless times but uses complete hypnosis to cover it up so no one ever learns what it is
Aizen fuzed whit his sword,... I gues he can use his abilities well, was t his hypnosis based on somebody seeing his relase, Jet he hypnotized Yuha while sitting in sealing chair...
Aizen's Bankai is probably complete hypnosis over past, present, and future lol.
@white america's worst nightmare Aizen reached the 4th level of the Zanpakuto. Where the Shinigami and the Sword are truly fused as one. Ichigo did this as well with Mugetsu. Mugetsu is his 4th form. Ichigo use the "Final Getsuga Tenshou" which is a skill, not Mugetsu itself.
The Bankai is the 2nd level of the Zanpaktou. The 3rd is where the fusion begins to manifest. Ichigo and Aizen use this during their final battle, their swords and arms where fused as one. Aizen has a Bankai. It is his will now. There is no "Release". He can choose to just use the power of the bankai without showing a change. There is no more "releasing" of the zanpakuto. Aizen and Kyoka Suigetsu are one now. As it should be. The Zanpakutou is the Shinigami, they were always one but physically separated through the Asauchi to truly understand and learn their power.
It's a circle. The user pours their spiritual pressure into the blank asauchi forming a zanpakuto, and in the end they become one again.
*Zanpakuto level of progression.*
1. Asauchi - The blank zanpakuto. The wielder pours their spiritual pressure into the blank sheet. It becomes them, their power, not unlocked.
2. Zanpakuto - The base form of weapon after forming from the asauchi.
3. Shikai - The first release. Attatined after learning the name of their zanpakuto.
4. Bankai - The second release. Attained through training and understanding the Zanpakuto.
5. Fusion Manifestation - The fusion of the Zanpakuto and the Shinigami begins.
6. Fusion. The Zanpakuto and the Shinigami become one. The powers of the Zanpakuto unshackled from the physical form and able to be used at will.
Aizen and Ichigo used their weapons in their final forms pulling them from thin air. Their will. Shikai and Bankai are now the norm and are beneath what there were. Their power is their will.
Sorry for the paragraph. :)
Judging on how Kubo writes nowadays, Aizen's Bankai is probably a very specific use Bankai that is not suitable against Yhwach. Like Shinji's Bankai cannot have any allies near him. Shuhei's Bankai needs allies near him. That one of the Kenpachi cannot use Bankai cause his Bankai destroys Seireitei.
I loved how OP the Almighty was, because it gave Aizen the opportunity to showcase just how much of a monster and troll he truly is. The chills from that moment stick with me til this day
I love how no matter how OP or broken a power is in bleach. There is always something someone can do to counter it.
isn't that how most anime is? I mean u'd see that in the other 2 of Big 3 as well. Naruto has plenty of this, so does One Piece. They always have smthing to counter one power.
@@resurgingflame i mean although bleach has asspulls, bleach has far Broken abilities, better ways of countering, and one piece and naruto got more asspulls, so i resepct bleach for that
@@lollypop9998 bleach definitely has the most asspulls you're biased and delusional
@@lollypop9998 Remind me who managed to kill The Miracle? It was his boss, Yhwach. There was no counter to The Miracle. Lille was killed because his opponent had a literal asspull weapon, and Pernida was killed with something only his opponent can do. Uryu survived Auswahlen because he has....Antithesis, the one ability that can survive Yhwach, and conveniently he happens to be Ichigo's friend, and conveniently turns off The Almighty so Ichigo could kill Yhwach.
@@th0r0shvener52 Gerard can be killed if his cross is destroyed (confirmed).
who would win?
Yhwach: a literall god quincy with the power to see all futures and alter them
Tsukushima: some random human with a random power that died recently
Random? More like the opposite power. Funny how none of us bleach fans thought of how he could be such a hard counter to Bach later.
Hanataro slaps them both
It´s actually revealed that all the Fullbringers are basically special humans born with a splinter of the Soul Kings Soul. The whole thing about parents b eing attacked by Hollows war korrelativ as their parents were mostly attacked BECAUSE of the kids special spiritual pressure.
NewCoastRadio is this from the novel?
@@TheKaiwind yes. Can't Fear Your Own World
I dont know why this never occurred to me. Tsukishima manipulates the past, Aizen manipulates the present, and Ywach manipulates the future lol.
The metaphors for how Tsukishima's and Aizen's abilities worked to help Ichigo were SO helpful actually. I do have a couple things though. Kyouka Suigetsu affects all SIX senses- don't forget spiritual awareness! Even if you heard or saw a person, if their spiritual signature is wrong you would know they were a fake- so Aizen's ability affects that too. And when Uryu temporarily nullifies Yhwach's Almighty with the arrow and Ichigo stikes him, one of the reasons he didn't see his defeat coming was because of Haschwalth (though Aizen might've certainly also had a hand in it as well). When Yhwach's powered switched to Haschwalth while Yhwach slept, he sent a vision of Ichigo defeating him, but led him to believe it was a dream. Yhwach DID technically see his defeat, but dismissed it as just a dream. I think that makes more sense as to why he didn't see Uryu coming with the arrow rather than he just happened to not be paying attention in that moment.
If I got anything wrong let me know but that's how I remember it.
Something interesting is that according to Jugram, Juha only opens his eyes when fighting Ichibei. And Aizen had already used a Kyokasuigetsu on Juha before.
It's not talking about his physical eyes.
Also, yuha isn't a woman, although i wish he was.
The Almighty waifu would've been awesome
@@metalface_villain hell no she doesn't.
Don't try to put holes in the Almighty queen how dare you
@@PeachDragon_ she would obviously had the moustache - it makes her Yhwach
@@PeachDragon_ there's nothing sexier than a woman with a fully grown caterpillar moustache
@@metalface_villain That's the best part
I assumed Aizen's "fascinating" line had to do with Ywabach percieving the defeat of Ichigo as the most critical element of his victory. Aizen's practically a god at that point and set up Ywabach to "see only his greatest fear" or some nonsense, when he still thought Ichigo was the most dangerous threat Aizen thought "huh? He's fighting me, a literal god, and still thinks beating this teenager is the linchpin?"
Best way to explain Tsukishima's influence against that ability is that Ichigo is a tree and the Almighty cut down all of his branches but Tsukishima planted a new tree with Ichigo's name to grow new branches that haven't been cut down yet
Yhwach's downfall: Too good eyesight so he saw Kyoka Suigetus' Release ONCE.
Aizen really was tricky. :P
this leaves one question: Does Aizen even HAVE to use it? I mean you need to SEE KS. If he sees KS fro almighty, is he still under KS´s spell? dumb question I know but it kinda comes up^^
At this point aizen and his sword are fused he doesn't need to whip it out to use his power
@@Metalhammer1993 probably no. It'd make KS too op if it can affect people even with a filter(not sirect eye contact
@@chestertamayo1894 Maybe he just saw that relase in one of futures,... it would be hilarius that his power would be his downfall.
@@marianmarkovic5881 it probably is why Aizen sounded confused and intrigued ol
Tsukishima stabs soul king and inserts "You have never been sealed memory"
Aizen defying almight fits his theme pretty well
You do amazing breakdowns I just read the entire 698 volumes over the last week or two and man watching these videos 3 months later is still refreshing 🤝. Great content.
Wow great narrative. You made me understand the fight better. Can not wait until we see it on screen!
Just found your channel recently and am enjoying the vids so far! I enjoy hearing your interpretations and they make me question my own views of the subject at hand. Keep it up!

Try explaining what d4c and what ger is heh.
@@SevensMarkedSeven GER is physical embodiment of word MUDA: Everything what you does against is MUDA

I’m super happy RUclips algorithm brought me to your channel. Love your content, keep up the good work. 👍🏻
I love your channel man, i have only pretty recently watched/read bleach and i love it so much and the discussions on your channel supplement my need for new bleach stuff super well!
tbh i understood everything u said in this video. Thanks for the explanation because it definitely cleared things up for me.
Speaking of the anime, I think a good idea for a video would be a list of things you think the anime should change in regards to TYBW, or perhaps the opposite; a list of moments you simply can’t wait for when the anime is finally released. Loving the uploads man!!
Brother great content. Just as stoked to have bleach greatness back in our lives. Your analysis is damn good.
This was really good video, clear a lot for me with tsukishima. It was a great analogy to explain his book of the end
I really like this explanation, I think it plays into what Kubo does well in that despite how powerful a bad guy is (think Barragan or Aizen) and how much they compare themselves to being a god, they're always shown to be human, very powerful but human. As if there's something they will never really achieve.
So Aizen is still the most OP character of bleach confirmed.
Far from it atm
Kid nel says Hi.
Correct.
@@aizensosuke965: All part of the seikaku
_Aizen appears_
Me: *DON’T YOU DARE SAY IT!*
Aizen: *Its all according to plan:)*
greatest break down of a anime fight ever thanks for breaking it down is such great detail amazing work new sub
Great job! I definitely needed clarity. Thanks
Normally I cringe at people who do content like this because their energy is to much. You keep my attention by your calm demeanor and passion. It actually makes me want to go read these Mangas. I hate reading but you have such insight that makes it seem worthy. Thank you for your content and reviving my love for Bleach
Thank you - I really appreciate that.
Aizen trolled "Almighty" Yhwach with only his shikai, and while having his reatsu range restrained. Damn, he's such a boss.
I don’t see how people are still confused about this but Aizen was beyond Bankai at that point similarly to how Ichigo had surpassed Bankai with his dangai form.
Still getting washed by sk yhwach
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼explanation,when i first was reading the manga i never understood how that work but your explanation made it simple and make sense
Fantastic job describing the way the past/present/future works! Great vid!
I always loved the fact that it is the two previous Big Bads' assistance that ultimately help Ichigo defeat the last Big Bad. Such poetry in that. Also excellent explanation on how the Book of the End effects the Almighty!
Good video again. I think you should do one on Aizen's kyoka suigetsu ability as it clearly evolved post sealing. Since Aizen fused with his sword kyokasuigetsu seems to trap you by just looking at Aizen himself....possibly.
Also, it seems to now create illusions that Aizen didn't intend for. Remember he made Juha see Renji in bankai form but Aizen never saw Renji's new bankai so it is possible that kyoka suigetsu is using info from the opponent's mind in some aspect.
I think too Aizen power being restricted by the black seals on his body limited Kyoka Suigetsu's influence. This can be a possible reason why it was operating a bit differently as Aizen powers were restricted close to him...possibly explaining why he was subbing for the illusions of Renji and Ichigo...he had to go in close for it to work.
Thank you so much for all videos you made. You are one of my absolutely best youtubers ever. :)
Jsi borec.
Great explanation!
Wasn't aware of all the details, thanks!
No the arrow was made from still sliver. Which has the power of "stillness" the same power as the mimihagi. The mimihagi was unaffected by almighty cuz of this power
Thanks so much bro. Best explanation I've come across
Loving the vids! Never finished the TYBW arc so I’m super excited for the anime!!
I think Aizen saying Ichigo gave Yhwach trouble is a clue to how the final battles played out, and obviously it isnt to do with any detectable physical damage as Ichigo inflicted none. Kubo doesnt bother explaining things and his power system lacks consistency, but from what i could gather Aizen is saying he could sense the battle via reiatsu, and from what he could sense, Yhwach probably spent a ton of his 'energy' using his future bending multiple times rather than risking a direct battle with Ichigo's bankai. I assume that similar to how Nen powers can be op but have conditions, a power like Yhwach's future bending probably has immense cost, otherwise he would be spamming it or using it in far more powerful ways, its just based on logical inference that the almighty power is NOT infinite and spammable and does have a cost, hence him even needing time to rest (when he lends his power to Hashwalt). (more detail below)
Its also limited to one person at a time, whomever he focuses his gaze upon.
Likewise i think we can further infer that what he bends with his power will have a cost to it based on how its used, and the cost must be higher than normal means or else he would never act in the present and just always use almighty. Placing a reiatsu trap is one small cost usage, killing a spirit body or breaking its sword probably requires more reiatsu than whatever the thing is he is trying to change with his power. So he must be able to control and decide how much power he puts into each usage of Almighty, and must also have limits or a max mana bar atleast, and probably has to rest a long time after using up his tank. This means Yhwach wasnt just being cheeky when he told Ichigo he was showing respect to his Bankai, he probably placed a ton of reiatsu into that usage of Almighty to break his bankai and horn, perhaps far more than the amount Ichigo would have displayed had he fought him directly, but chose to do so rather than bother or risk the encounter going any further.
That whole spawning traps segment is probably just the least intensive or most efficient way of using Almighty without expending much reiatsu. Likewise he saw fit to steal whatever he could from the remaining quincy before facing Aizen, implying he may have drained more of his tank than intended taking on ichigo. Also alot of unexplained things in the next chapter, but one could argue Aizens illusions have to replicate reiatsu senses as well to the opponent, but the fact that multiple times Yhwach attempts to use future bending to break Ichigo and Aizens sword and it only cracks is a sign that Yhwach is either too low on power by now to use it as effectively, or more likely is controlling how much power is put into each usage of future bending. I believe this is why the 'illusion ichigo''s sword doesnt break, nothing to do with Tsukishima imo, since this isnt the real ichigo at that point, but Aizen still. By this logic, he believes he used enough to break the sword based on what he thinks his target is, but is incorrect because the sword is really Aizen's. Or an Illusion of what Ichigos power level should appear to be to Yhwach mind, and since Aizens reiatsu is far higher than the amount Yhwach used for his future bending in these instances it merely cracked rather than broke.
In other words - the energy put into the spell cast wasnt enough to complete the task because Yhwach is incorrect about the power level of what he is spell casting against, sort of lol.... hope that makes sense. That means Yhwach was spamming useless spells wasting mana quite a bit in the end! Then having to come back from the dead in 684 probably used quite alot of energy as well, so it becomes slightly more believable that after all that and the momentary loss of power, that he was too weak to defend himself in the final moment even vs a worn out Ichigo shikai. Is it just head cannon? Yeah... but thats the best sense I could make of what we are shown in the finale. Heres hoping the anime expands the final arc where it was rushed....
Ichigo didn't use his shikai to fell Yhwach, he used his bankai. The Bankai Yhwach already admited to being strong enough to take seriously. That white casing was just an ornate sheath, like a hardened version of that white cloth his original shikai was wrapped in when not in use. Once it shattered, his real blade was revealed which is nearly identical to his original shikai.
Something else to mention is that Yhwach did see the future in which Ichigo killed him, he just denounced it as a dream because ichigo used his original shikai blade in that "future".
"Zangetsu...of course. So what I saw that time was the future seen with my own eyes. I thought it was a dream you made me see, Haschwalth."
Which means he could've changed that future and saved himself, but because he'd effectivly tossed aside that grain of sand, he couldn't do so in time. That also explains why it took him ten years to regenerate. He already said he could change the futures in which he died, so he just did so again. But this time he was too weakened or too far gone to make his resurrection instant.
Something that validates your theory is that in his fight against Ichibei Ywach got competely drained of energy when he used the All Mighty
So much in fact that he needed to sleep
When he absorbed the Soul King and Mimijagi his "uses" of the full powered All Mighty increased
Hence why he could use it 3 times when fighting Ichigo
One to break his sword, one for his horn and in the other he breaked Ichigo's bones
That's why when he descended to soul society he fought Aizen for a while without using the All Mighty
Ichigo did drained a lot, not to say all of his energy
Thx for sharing this and if this might just be head cannon but i feel like if u showed this to Kubo he’d give you the thumbs up on atleast half of it
@@kedricarmstead8760 it's not really head canon. Kubo built that up through multiple means to be the obvious takeaway. Yhwach was clearly weakening.
However, Kubo also made sure to show him breaking the barriers between the three realms to reaffirm that Yhwach was still a very serious threat and was about to achieve his objective.
Power system bro blame shonen jump for that and retarded fans that wanted buyakia alive
Tsukishima is mad underrated. His power is basically to alter your personal past with the swipe of his sword. It even works on inorganic matter too. CFYOW reveals that Fullbringers have a piece of the Soul King in them. My headcannon is that Book of The End was inherited by the Soul King(its heavily hinted that SK had the Almighty as well) as the 'antithesis' to the Almighty. One controls the past and one controls the future. I'd Tsukishima trained more I don't think it would be a stretch that his abilities could counter or cancel out YH. Or maybe the SK had seen everything in the future and made Book of the End to keep Almighty in check. Hell Tsukishima even kind of favors Yhwach a little. I wonder If Tsukishima is an ancestor of the SK. What do y'all think?
Yes I feel he could have solely defeated them all just alter memories to his favour
Thanks for this clear explanation that made the battle clearer.
Thanks for the great vid... looking forward to more in the future!
Despite looking like Ed Sheeran, you've instantly become one of favorite channels. Thank you!!!
I believe Aizen's ability makes the user see the outcome they want most, their own mind does most of the work for him. Seeing success at every corner even when failing, seeing a win when you really have lost. His fascincation with what ywach sees stems from each persons unique way of their own mind being used to trick them, and how they are being tricked by their own wants and needs is what fascinates him.
I'm glad I found this channel. Huge bleach fan and you're pumping out great content. Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much!
Video was well done and so good had to subscribe
Aizen’s Bankai could possibly be something like Ichibei’s where the shikai is actually more useful than the Bankai. And aizen prefers to use shikai, and there are too few situations where his bankai would actually be more useful than shikai.
But my thinking is that Kubo wanted to leave Aizen’s bankai a mystery so that the unknown nature of it would make aizen a character we truly don’t know how powerful he is.
The reality is that this was all part of Aizen’s plan
What's a bit confusing is that Haschwalth was able to see a vision of the future where Yhwach gets cut down and sends it to Yhwach. So was what Haschwalth saw the future of many times Yhwach saw in his initial fight with Ichigo in Wahrwelt or the 2nd future timeline created by Tsukishima?
You explained it very well thanks for the much needed explanation.
Thanks for this!! You really helped me understand what was going on
5:25 One thing - if we believe in theory of multiple potential futures, we should also consider theory of multiple timelines, which implies infinite pasts that can lead to the present. We love to believe that there is one past - as we lived through it, but we will also only live through one future - so either there is only one timeline for us and there is no infinite possibilities and in fact no infinite pasts, or there isn't just one specific timeline and change/choice isn't only an illusion. All Mighty can change all futures, the way Book can manipulate person's pasts into infinite possibilities. Which implies that in Bleach universe - there are multiple pasts and futures, and it only depends on who is the viewer - that which timeline is followed.
Also he didn't think any Quincy would turn against him. He made it seem like they couldn't hurt him. When Ishida's step in they prove that they never believed he was their "King" same as with Ichigo, he made it seem that the Quincy blood in his veins would not allow him to hurt Ywach. He was cocky with his power and that is why he fell. Same as with Aizen in his Arc. he thought he was truly invincible and no one would surpass him.
Dude you're a breath of fresh air, you've got a great style a d I like the attention to detail and references to past events
Thank you, I really appreciate that :)
I absolutely love your videos. Very detailed. Subbed
When I read the manga I always thought that the All Mighty works like a search
You look "Ichigo's Bankai" in the futures
He witnesses all of the futures that contain that information and chooses the one he "likes" or the one that is more useful
Like the future in which Ichibei dies, or the unlikely future in which Ichigo's bankai breaks and then he overrides the present with that result
What I mean it's that he isn't changing the future, he is selecting a particular outcome that he sees and overrides reality with it
Tensa Zangetsu breaks, Ichibei dies, etc...
Is is Aizen affecting multiple “puddles” of water, or Aizen affecting the moment in time that all “puddles” are based on?
That's a great question. I think he actually affects Juhas perspective of the present, since Aizen would only be able to change the futures if he saw or at least predicted them (well, it's Aizen, so maybe he did, idk). If he affects what Juha is currently seeing, then the Almighty would probably show the possible outcomes based on the illusion he is currently experiencing. If that's the case, then it's a very big flaw in an otherwise completely hax power, since he can only react around what he BELIEVES is going on
Since Ywach's senses are distorted by Aizen, the futures that he "sees" will also be distorted. So Ywach is basically looking at distorted and fake realities that he can't really change because they're not real outcomes (atleast that's what I think)
The way I understand it, think of Aizen like a pair glasses that controls your vision.
The puddles are there but the glasses show you something different in the puddle.
Let's say there's a puddle with a Catfish in it, but when you have the glasses on you see a Shark instead.
Just aizen being aizen
Yes.
They should definitely higher you I have watched several of your videos now and you make sense of what's going to the point where it's like damn I didn't even think of that.!
Nicely explained. Good job
Didn't aizen use kyoka suigetsu on yhwach when he met him in muken? I don't think he was using the almighty at that time so wouldn't that be the reason he was able to effect him? Because If he was using the almighty at that time wouldn't he have been able to see in the future that aizen was going to put him under kyoka suigetsu's effect 🤔?
Yep, most likely. But the thing with Almighty it actually only allows him to see the future of what he is observing. I don't think he generally sees all futures throughout the universe which is why he can be caught off guard. So it is possible that kyoka suigetsu by its very nature could work on him regardles....because it relies on vision. Plus Aizen is nearing Soul King level of power....and that was his power still being restricted.
@@Ephideltrance he wasn’t restricted. It’s just that his range was restricted but his power is still 100%
For those of you still confused about Tsukushima power, it's the concept they used in Avengers Endgame. When they removed the stones from the reality, it created a new future timeline divergent (remember when Bruce met the Ancient One). However, if they put the stones back EXACTLY where they got them from time wise, then there's no divergent timeline. Tsukushima inserting into the past, creates a new timeline in that person (including their sword a manifestation of their spiritual power because they're connected) thus it created a timeline where Ywach NEVER broke Ichigo's bankai specifically for his past. Therefore, Orihime could heal it, because even if she saw it, she could still heal it cause it no longer is in the timeline for Ichigo.
Nice explanation. Good luck with your channel, I wish you luck
What a great explanation video, awesome content!
I thought all the Fullbringers would be a more clear counter to the Almighty since their abilities effect opponents regardless of reiatsu. I also thought that Aizen might use the Hogyoku somehow to turn Uryu into a vizard and make the A the Antithesis unabsorbable by Yuha..
well antithesis, by definition of the power itself made Yhwach not able to absorb it
No need to do the "deus ex Ishida" Make Urryu insensible to Juha absorption
For example Yukio could’ve put him in Invaders must die, inside of Rirukas Dollhouse, with no ambient Reishi to manipulate Yuha would have to rely solely on his Schrift powers and Yamamotos Bankai and Giriko could set timers on his abilities as well... Jackie could’ve been running around rescuing the wounded and Ginjo could’ve fought a Sternritter or something
That would literally kill him
@Marc Crooked Arm He could negate Invaders must die and The doll house with the almighty lol
You should make a video about "does the zanpakuto make sense". It seems like the rules are all over the place.
very interesting and insightful analysis, I had totally forgotten that Tsukashima was even there.
Thanks for this breakdown!
Small fix. Aizen wasn’t lucky. He just isn’t always sure what you see when you’re hypnotized. He made that clear during the him vs captains fight. Once you get going it seems to take on a mind of its own. So I think he said that last part because it was actually him realizing what the all mighty was seeing at the time
He was lucky that Ywach was susceptible, knowing his powers of godly foresight. You'd think the Almighty would be capable of seeing through trickery, which is why the book of the end was needed. It isn't trickery happening as far as reality goes. He is actually inside their past as it occurred, not just some visual hallucination or altered memory, per se. I'd even be willing to be that without book of the end throwing Ywach off, Aizen couldn't actually do anything. Of course, the key piece is that book of the end would only have worked AFTER Ywach broke the Ichigo's sword. Too early and Ywach would not have crossed the point where he believed he had dealt with it, causing him to break it in the new past. Aizen kept Ywach from noticing book of the end, and book of the end reset the sword's destruction. Both were required, and both had to be applied at the right time or it would have failed.
Guys hear me out ,imagine if tsukishima stabs yhwach and then changes up his past ,and then he becomes an ally.
Lmaooo GG for Yhwach 🤣
I wish that happened with Gerard Valkyrie lol
Ally against what tho ?
Jerel March right there would
be no one to fight anymore
Harnoor Singh couldn’t yhwach do the same thing that he did to ichibei where his like ‘NO’ and rewrite tsukishima rewrite
I almost forgot about you. Its been years since i saw a vid of you. Gonna sub
My favorite bleach channel ♥️♥️ cant wait for you reviewing the anime 202× :)
I always read Aizen's comment at the end to Yhwach as patronizing him. Driving more salt into the wound that he isn't as powerful as he thinks.
I always explained it as Yhwach being able to see every potential future and choose which 'split' in the timeline to let happen. 'Book of the End' makes a split in the timeline before the split that Yhwach foresaw and decided on, thus making it so Yhwach's split never even came up. I think this is pretty much what you also meant? (Really hard to explain it text, very easy with a visual aid).
Also; I think Aizen may have just realised that Yhwach saw an ambush coming, or expected it to happen himself (remember that Aizen planned over 100 years into the future). He then uses his 'Perfect Hypnosis' to make Yhwach live through a rough duplicate. Yhwach thinks he has dealt with that threat so he doesn't expect the real ambush to still be in the future.
Then again; what is 'real' when Aizen is involved...
i was so confused with the final fight but your explanation made a lot of sence, thanks :)
This is already one of the most interesting videos I’ve seen so far in 2020! I’ve got to thank you for bringing that up, cause I have always got annoyed by other Bleach fans not being able to realize how clever Kubo was to create this masterpiece. (+)
Although Aizen helping Soul Society was confusing, I really enjoyed his appearance on the final battle. Not only that, seeing that Tsukishima’s Book of the End was one of the responsible for Yhwach’s fall blew my mind! He did create a past where he had helped Ichigo defeat the enemy (as he had alleged back in the Fullbring arc).
The power to defy the Almighty.
The "D" ---> deus ex Machina
Also, great explanation and great topic
"God's natural enemy"
I prefer call it the deus ex Ishida in this case
Let the god experience the "D"
Will of the D.
Makes sense, yhwach CAN SEE FUTURE TIMELINES, To see one has to purposely LOOK at will, yuha would need infinite energy to percieve every timeline ever, so he has to choose what to see, the answer to his ability is to overwhelm his cognitive abilities, throw so much stuff at him that he has no time to SEE THE FUTURE and choose where to go
Im new and im veeery glad i find you cus im big bleach fab you got my sub man
this was explained really well, thank you!
Imagine Aizen actually Managed to make Ywach his underling and being able to Controll the allmighty ability of Ywach.
i would love to see that
The thing is Aizen changed. His megalomania was a lie, the Truth is Aizen felt isolated with his power. He is a lonely guy as described by ichigo then Urahara.
Best move is to kill yhwach, no loose ends
Aizen can't do that with opponents far superior to him. Aizen can affect their senses to a degree. The stronger the opponent the less effective the illusion is. Everyone under Aizen's power is severely affected by Kyoka, but those above him have their percepcion slightly altered
@@Yokai_Yuri except for Yamamoto, no matter how strong he is, his stupidity makes him fell for any trick.
Could you make a video listing the top 50 beings in the bleach verse, from manga, anime, novels and games, I and many others would love to see it
@@metalface_villain heyy, sorry I'm replying late, I think prime soul king would be #1, they described him as "a being that transcends all things", it was in a bleach databook, I haven't seen it myself though, but it makes sense, cause that's what it seems like the hogyoku was trying to do for Aizen, continually transcend his past limitations
The way you described tsukishima's power as it relates to yhwach's in this vid is perfect.
Great video 🙌🙌🙌
If Aizen could control Ywach's perception of the future, then Aizen might have done so because he saw that in one of the possibilities that Ywach could have seen that Uryu shoot him with the arrow.
Or maybe Aizen could have planned this ever since Ywach fell under kyokasuigetsu and made it so the correct circumstances happened to lead to Ywach's death.
