Byakuya refuses to believe that Tensa Zangetsu is indeed a bankai, because it looks no different from a regular zampakto that other shinigamis have. Normally bankai is supposed to be an upgraded version of the zampakto, hence look different too. But there is nothing "normal" when it comes to Ichigo in the first place. He was not supposed to be a shinigami. He's someone who goes against all the laws and rules. That's why his original sword form is huge, and bankai looks like an ordinary sword. As if ichigo just straight up saying "I'm here to break all rules and change the norms. Fight me."
Spiler...................... Zangetsu is not even his shinigami power/part. The current Tensa Zangetsu or his bankai is only a fraction of this real power which Zangetsu is intentionally suppressing......
SPOILER In TYBW it is revealed that this is just his Quincy powers (the old man) releasing a larger portion of his powers than his "shikai" form. His shinigami half isn't even active right now, and so he's basically running on his Quincy and hollow powers, pretending to be shinigami powers. If his full powers were awakened and he were using his true bankai, Byakuya would have been instantly killed. He can take out beings like Yhwach and the Soul King in one hit--Byakuya at this point barely registers on the power scale compared to them.
@@theprogressivecynic2407 yeah he can take out anyone but Yhwach , Yhwach can absorb his powers.....but Yeah he was scared Af of his sword(White Katana That can cut Gods)
@@ammaribrahim7902 He uses Blut in the Kenpachi fight, but Zangetsu limits his powers because he doesn't want Ichigo to use those powers and make himself a target.
The whole thing about Ichigo is that he can't control his own Spiritual Pressure (kinda like Kenpachi). What his sword does in both it's stages is simply wield that immense power. His shikai uses that power to land stronger blows and blast off the Getsugatensho. Meanwhile his Bankai improves that effect while also distributing that power through his own body, giving him more fighting prowess. It's a very simplistic power, because Ichigo is a very simplistic person, and in the end all Zanpakutos are an extension of their owner's soul.
No you're underestimating Kuchki he was not much serious bck thn , he wanted deep inside ichigo to save rukia.... even he always wounded ichigo with no mercy , he always left him alive without displaying his actual intention.... You can clearly see power difference Vasto lord arc
@@c3p6 (MASSIVE SPOILERS) Not at all. Kuchiki very much wanted Ichigo to save Rukia, so he obviously held back. Both kuchiki and kenpachi could annihilate Ichigo actually going serious. He only surpasses them deep into the arrancar arc where he eventually uses final getsuga tensho.
I dont think you realize Ichigo's Bankai is literally Drip. He gets a whole new sword and new shihakusho (outfit) that condenses his spiritual pressure and gives him an explosive edge. That's dope if you ask me.
You can describe Ichigo Bankai as "less is more". And it looks soo COOL! Bankai state doesnt mean the person who use it is gonna get a huge armor or something like that (it depends of the power from borh the Soul Reaper and zampakutou). GREAT REACTION AS ALWAYS! U ROCK! 🔥 Looking for the next Bleach reaction 🤩
Ichigo's first bankai reveal was the most hype moment of Bleach for me. The twist of his bankai being this compressed, small sword compared to the other big bankais was so unexpected
Incredibly vague/minor spoiler: I love the foreshadowing with Byakuya refusing to acknowledge Ichigo being able to reach bankai in such a short amount of time.
Ichigo really does just make a bad habit of spitting on millennia of tradition within the Soul Society early on. He steals a Soul Reaper's powers, loses them, awakens his own Soul Reaper powers, infiltrates the main HQ of Soul Reapers, Goes toe to toe with a Lieutenant, give one of the strongest captains such a good fight they become allies/friends, reaches Bankai in three days, and ALL OF THAT happens in less than a single fucking year. Man is literally breaking molds, and he hasn't even reached his final form. It's ridiculous, and it's why I personally think he's the best protag out of the Big Three.
While the fans still don't know the identity of all the clans but , the rest of the noble clans are Shihoin clan, Kuchiki clan, Tsunayashiro clan, and Shiba clan.
It is only explained in the extra data books, but the chain is actually invisible and is connected to his shihakusho, hence they are both the bankai. That is why when he turns into the horned Vasto Lorde form he "pulls" Tensa Zangetsu from meters away into his hand. It is always connected to the robe. You can get a clue about this when he goes into bankai, as the bandage of the sword wraps his arm.
just to state, in case you dont already know, byakuya is a fighter leages above ichigo at this point. Its a mix of his own confused feelings about whats happening, underestimating ichigo and what ichigos bankai does that allow ichgio to close the gap. Ichigos greatly enhances all phyciacal attriputes that he has, while most other bankai dont
Ichigo is my favorite but even I'm mad that he took on Byakuya's bankai with his shikai. He took a lot of unnecessary damage by doing that. I know it's in his character to do things like this but he is already patched up form training.
SPOILER thats actually not a bankai, its a miniscule level of his complete bankai and same goes for Renji, his is also an incomplete version of his bankai
The thing on Ichigos Bankai is not a swastika, I think its called Bon and it a Religious symbol in Buddhism, very disrespectful comparison to its warped German/Nazi counterpart. Alsothat's the way they spell Bankai in the show
Swastika and a german hooked cross are different things. Swastika is a symbol from Hinduism and the word itself comes form Sanskrit, so technically it makes sense to call that thing in the show with it’s correct terminology. Also, if you saw German’s hooked cross you know that it has a big difference in how it’s angle a bit shifted in the comparison to the original symbols.
@@skyrider11910 The hooked cross is a swastika; it's just the German version of it. The swastika appears in almost every human culture around the world. The symbol is extremely old; even appearing in pre-historic petroglyphs, it likely predates civilization.
Every time I re watch this fight, I just keep thinking that the level Ichigo is on even at this point in the story, is actually very high. Like at what point would other anime characters even hit this level?
Also “right now you gonna switch” yeah trust me when I say they did the worst of that shit by putting a filler arc in the middle of a fight later in the series. Granted it was a pretty good filler, but still, it was irritating.
"So youre just choosing not to believe thats his Bankai?" umm even YOU said I cant believe its just a sword everyone elses was huge etc etc, so why cant they say that too? lol
I love how Byakuya just telling us all that's not bankai but we all didn't think I'd that way when we first saw this ep btw spoilers It's af foreshadowing for his true bankai
Good catch! yeah the handle off Ichigos sword in Bankai form would be a swastyka but they did censor it over time i think might be wrong 😅 i mean its not much but yeah not everybody speak on that cause i think thats what makes it unique too 😁
@@Mario1444R yeah i know that i'm from austria🎶 ( quoted a song name from here) and yes i point it out cause i m against censor in anime and u right there are swastyka in different shapes and forms 😁
@@syphernix2167 Weren't the nazis the last to use it? It's a very old symbol and in most cultures doesn't it mean peace. Didn't the nazis also steal from the Russians at least the uniforms.
@@blakestephens8211 The nazis especially hitler steal or took a lot from other cultures even it means in reality a completely different thing like there gesture and the salute i know he was inspired there from the Romanians cause the "hail" could alsi mean "ave cäsar" as like to greet or honor cäsar i think 🤔 and the gesture would also look the same but i could be wrong here i mean u can look it up urself too 🙃 but he had a lot off influences and things that inspired him even he'd used it for bad 😅 so in conclusion i think he had alot off unique things but did copy alot off things
@@blakestephens8211 but lets not talk about that matter i find just that Ichigos sword is unique with that but i too never know why the put it there maby cause the different meaning off the symbol in Japan 🤔

Byakuya was and still right
This is not his Actual Bankai Zanpakto
It is half of His True Tensa Zangetsu..... because He's dual wielder
Spiler......................
Zangetsu is not even his shinigami power/part. The current Tensa Zangetsu or his bankai is only a fraction of this real power which Zangetsu is intentionally suppressing......

When Dripchigo said Ban Kai I could feel the black funeral drip comin' thru, flexing on Byakuya...
The power of drip yeahh😂
That shit still gives me chills
Ichigo's first *BANKAI* hits way different 🔥
Ichigo really had the opportunity to clap Byakuya instantly, but instead he gave us a good fight 💯
No you're underestimating Kuchki he was not much serious bck thn , he wanted deep inside ichigo to save rukia.... even he always wounded ichigo with no mercy , he always left him alive without displaying his actual intention....
You can clearly see power difference Vasto lord arc
Only shirosaki(hollow ichigo) Was able to go through byakuya that Time

GREAT REACTION AS ALWAYS! U ROCK! 🔥 Looking for the next Bleach reaction 🤩
Spoiler
But Byakuya still right do..... it's not his actual bankai
Among anime moments, this was definitely an example of an opponent that could have wrecked the MC if he didn't give time to charge up.

Incredibly vague/minor spoiler:
I love the foreshadowing with Byakuya refusing to acknowledge Ichigo being able to reach bankai in such a short amount of time.
The "Swastica" in Ichigos sword handle is how u write Bankai in Japanese btw, or at least the first character im pretty sure
so disrespectful when he snuck up on byakuya not once but twice

When u realise that Byakuya was totally right when he said that that wasnt a bankai
I love the foreshadowing in each episode. If you know, you know.
Byakuya's Bankai is just Part 1 Gaara mode. Stands there and lets the sand/petals do all the work for him
it's not a swastika, it's a Japanise kanji for Ban(full or all)
It is only explained in the extra data books, but the chain is actually invisible and is connected to his shihakusho, hence they are both the bankai.

Byakuya didn't fight at full strength because he underestimated Ichigo.
7:57 foreshadowing

also too: both sides are gonna get to the best part of the fight now. can't wait till you see it
8:40
Reminded me of Gaara V Lee when I first watched it.
06:01 - maki maki just shit himself
TECHNICALLY thats not actually Ichigos Bankai in a way Byakuya was foreshadowing
Ichigo is my favorite but even I'm mad that he took on Byakuya's bankai with his shikai. He took a lot of unnecessary damage by doing that. I know it's in his character to do things like this but he is already patched up form training.
07:00 Did you know, Neel, that BAN-KAI is written 卍解 ("Full Release")?
Bankai!!🔥🔥🔥
Love how the dude is Indian and calls it a swastika. It’s a Buddhist symbol my dude 😂
Epic fight incoming 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Best episode so far 🔥🔥🔥
Been waiting on this
SPOILER
thats actually not a bankai, its a miniscule level of his complete bankai and same goes for Renji, his is also an incomplete version of his bankai
That's not a swastika, it is called manji. 卍 it is a buddhist symbol. The swastika is reversed and on an angle.
Well dats not ichigo's bankai...the true bankai that is😈
That isn't a Swastika dude, that's kanji
Kanji BAN = 卍
卍解 (bankai)
The reason Ichigo´s Tensa Zanmgetsu guard looks like a Nazi symbol is because the Kanji for Bankai in Japonese starts with that symbol
Except, it's not the nazi symbol, it's a swastika and comes from buddhism.
the biggest reason is actually that symbol true meaning being from Buddism
and Kubo love his religious reference
@@hikarihakai1285 i know bleahc is basicly 80% cycle of samsara
@@narttaker93 yep
Kanji BAN = 卍
卍解 (bankai)
5:38 chills bruh 🥶🥶
Byakuya kutchki bankai is like gaara
If Gaara had petals
Dang
My minds dirty
I be hearing a lot of double meaning in Bleach
And I'm not believing that I'm the only one who heard that
Neel Upload 2 ep Together
That Would satisfy us
Cool rection 👍😆
Nooo Pls we have to see the rest of it 😭😭
Byakuya's bankai it's basically Gaara's sand
in this normal version. the true bankai is when he fights with a bunch of swords
The thing on Ichigos Bankai is not a swastika, I think its called Bon and it a Religious symbol in Buddhism, very disrespectful comparison to its warped German/Nazi counterpart.
Alsothat's the way they spell Bankai in the show
Kanji BAN = 卍
卍解 (bankai)
