  • We know about Kenpachi Zaraki, Retsu Unohana and some even know about Kenpachi Kiganjo, however very few fans of the series are familiar with the other former Kenpachi members who are mentioned within the Bleach novel series Spirits Are Forever With You. In this video I breakdown and explain everything that we know about the 8th Kenpachi, Soya Azashiro. Talking about his role within the novels, what kind of Kenpachi he was, as well as his insane goal that he has. So join me as I talk about a member of the infamous Kenpachi Lineage, someone not many Bleach fans know anything about.

      Not really lol. if you match the timelines it isn't a mess. honestly perfectly balanced.
      This guy's bankai is indeed one of the strongest in the entire soul society but he can still be defeated. also there are kido's the counters reishi so if he fought against that he loses.. also he hard loses to literally any Quincy lol. Blut Protects them from physical and internal and they are Reishi destroyers.
      The only Power Level mess is Kenpachi Zaraki's cuz he doesn't know his own strength and his reiatsu. like for example Byakuya knows how strong his Reiatsu is and it's limits so he compensates with technique.
      Kenpachi Zaraki's power is limitless in a sense his limit is he matches enemy power so if he got one shotted on first interaction he loses lol.
      This is also before Blood war this is like when Ichigo lost his powers vs Aizen and is now in Fullbringer arc.
      And almost all the captains have broken powers against certain enemies they are trash though. same for this guy. pretty fleshed out character too.
      Also Ichigo.. well Ichigo's powerlevel is also somewhat same as Kenpachi that he has insane strength due to being hybrid.

      Azashiro being the prideful and powerful individual he is, insulting Aizen on muken while Uro zakuro was trying to convince him to kill Aizen and steal the hogyoku. All of that was genius. Aizen s the most arrogant son of a bitch, but sealed as phuck, he wouldnt do shit if Azashiro wasnt that prideful and went ahead with his zampakuto suggestion. Even kyoka suigetsu wasnt a threat to Azashiro on that moment. Its still so satisfying that moment happened in Bleach s story. I always return to that for the laughs. Love Aizen btw, but still 😂

      @@elaizakaguya4631 shall i explain the context that happened and how it differs a lot from both Kempachi s showdown? I'll give u a hint, aizen was sealed as phuck at Muken, Kyoraku wasnt head captain back then, therefore, all Aizen could do if Azashiro, the only Shinigami kyoka suigetsu couldnt fool, have had carried with uro zakuro s suggestion, was die a hopeless death. Not like Aizen isnt powerful enough to withstand severe beating, but sealed by Urahara really put him in a bad spot, at least against high end talented Shinigami level. unsealed Aizen s still the mastermind threat we all love, though. As for Azashiro vs Zaraki, well, reiatsu and the soul reaper s bond with their zampakuto wasnt enough by the time that battle happened, and Azashiro just walked out from that battle, since his plans never included a battle between Kempachis. Zaraki was the stronger, no doubt. But Aizen was helpless in the context i was pointing up there. Get it?

      @@nathaninostroza7655 i get your point but you're forgetting something
      Soya was under ks for like 2 whole days before he finally cracked out of it
      I don't need to be a magician for you to understand that 2 whole days is a pretty long time for someone like Aizen
      Nothing stated that Aizen can't simply put him back in it but nothing contradicts that either so it's a stalemate there
      Also cien who is far stronger than soya used Gabriel and was unable to crush zaraki, (proof of this is cien fighting an unpatched eye kenny and actually going to toe with him though i do applaud the picaro there) aizen's seals don't extinguish his reaitsu they merely restring it besides him
      Soya cannot attack Aizen externally neither can he internally
      It was so bad he had to use urozakuro to remove the seals rather than do it himself
      That same dude was stated to be weaker than a normal ruffian, bro has only his hAx going for him
      Now we both know Aizen isn't stupid, him knowing azashiro definitely shows that he's placed some counter against unforseen circumstances
      Aizen is just stronger and smarter
      The only way that azashiro stands a chance is with sealed Aizen mainly cause my dude is restricted but we both know Aizen doesn't need ks to beat azashiro down to size, just freeing his mouth will do splendidly
      Azashiro is an amazing character ngl, but Aizen is just HIM

    There's a consistent theme throughout these longer Novels huh? That the old ways/government/Central 46 SUCKS. Also I like the render of Shunsui and Kuruyashiki. In an omake it's been shown Shunsui occasionally drinks with *our* Kenpachi too. So that's something that warms my heart if nothing else.
    Isn't that procedure mentioned just called a Lobotomy? Somehow Azashiro's goal seems more scary especially because no one even realized. Like it's actually something to race against time to prevent someone from being able to accomplish on an massive scale. Sure Yhwach's goal was similar or arguably worse, but can you tell me someone fusing different worlds/realms/universes together causing a spatial collapse or worse is something we can actually expect in our world? I'd say not. While we as readers can be made to understand the impact I don't think it ever clicks in our heads it's ever a real possibility because as of current it isn't. Though I wonder if someone becomes a Plus do they keep their disabilities physical or mental? If so his whole plan of preventing Hollows would be pointless. Besides that though I have lots of praise to give.

    Somehow this man is better than Aizen in several ways, being admitted as so by the man himself and even Squad Zero actually about to drop down to take him out. Aizen meanwhile was going to challenge people in a space he might not have even been able to reach.
    It's even more interesting when you consider the matchups. As noted here someone like Yumichika could absolutely counter Azashiro's biggest defense which kinda feeds back into a consistent theme of the Kenpachis holding themselves back for some reason or another as at this point Yumichika might've not fully gotten over his fear of coming out of the closet. As a Kido user. He'd be the best shot at beating Azashiro otherwise *AS HE SHOULD.* Also any Quincy that can take in Reishi like Uryu. I'm assuming for all these though your Reiatsu would have to scale but you never know.

    If you think about it though it's kinda cool that Azashiro's Zanpakuto is basically also a Domain Expansion before that was even invented. Which I've come to see as "Manifesting or Bringing other's into your Inner World." Even though I think Bleach's has more nuance with what makes it so cool to me is it being tied to both a Zanpakuto Spirit *and* the user but it's still cool in JJK.
    Now the entire thing with Narita picking up on Kenpachi's secret- *THIS RIGHT HERE-* is why I never want to hear again any question of the Novels being Canon be it for Kubo not having enough influence or anything! This man even if he was the sole writer with no help was chosen by Kubo for a reason, why is that not enough for people? I've noted it at least once before but this is the same author as Durarara, and for those familiar with the anime it's actually a Light Novel. (An anime which I think is really good and the best character IMO has Ichigo's English VA in addition.) So the man has writing "feats" per se.
    Now of course I want you to do more Novel characters. But. *But-* If you or any other reader/viewer liked Azashiro's whole story and Arc... *The Zanpakuto Rebellion Arc's Muramasa and Koga Kuchiki follow some similar aspects with an arguably sadder outcome...*

      The seireitei in general and it's politics has always been shown to be highly morally bankrupt or questionable at least.
      I feel like Yumichika is kinda a victim of the example set by both zaraki and the kenpachi immediatly before him. Both are brutal, thugish, savage killers, and as a result their divisions shapped around that. While we have been shown that kuriyashiki and unohana had more complete skillsets, the environment created through these two in particular made the division more unidimensional than it needs to be(they have always been a combat division, but originally the motto of someone like unohana would be to fight using whatever means necessary, hence why she learned healing to fight longer, even though her fighting in itself doesn't pull punches, while the division eventually over specialized in direct combat abilities
      Narita is also a writter for the fate franchise and his work there is no less good either. In general I think it's a very poor attitude to ignore side content/adaptations, because more often than not the original writter has input in it, if not outright doing it themselves. While industry constraints are not to be ignored, I don't think there are many writters successful enough to have such works based on their own and not care about it.

    Enjoy the information of the videos, some constructive criticism though is showing clips of totally different and unrelated animes I'm not a fan of at all, I get in some cases, such as content of the lore in this video, you have lack of footage, I still think you are better off showing fan art of the subject or just repeating the visuals you have of the subject. Having clips from Avatar and one piece seems... not good to those that recognize and for newer fans that dont know better can be detrimental in some way (give them wrong idea or feel of actual source?)

If the SK did want to rule the world or completely eradicate hollows he would do so with a simple thought, Ichibe even makes it clear that it's baffling why someone who had every means to do practically anything without a single obstacle, surrendered to a bunch of insects who wished to enslave him due to their fear of his existence alone, it doesn't make sense to him why he surrendered.

    I find it interesting that at the end of this novel Azashiro remains alive. I’ve been feeling that if Bleach continues into the ‘Hell Arc’, the Soul Society has become pretty underpowered following the end of the thousand year blood war. An Azashiro who has been training for what his spirit perceives as thousands of years would be an asset of unfathomable proportions. On the other side tho is scary, because to write a story with protagonists like him, Zaraki, Ichigo, and even potentially Ichigo’s son depending on the abilities he grows with, we would need and even more insurmountable threat than even Ywach.

    @cautioncrazy 2 роки тому +182

    Keep in mind the official bleach-anime website has been licensed for 10 years. There's definitely a strong possibility we'll get the novels animated as well as the new hell arc animated.
    Based on Studio Pierrot's past with Bleach, they adapted between 1 to 2 chapters per episode. TYBW was 206 chapters in total, cut short due to Kubo's torn shoulder, meaning it could be extended. If we were to bump it up to 208 that would give us 8 seasons of 26 episodes each, if they were to adapt each chapter into its own episode. 1 season per year brings us to 8 years, 1 year for SAFWY, and the last for CFYW. At that point it would really be up to Kubo if he wanted to keep writing Bleach, finishing the hell arc. At that point they'd decide if there was enough excitement for Bleach again to renew the license on the site again.
    This is all just my theory but I stand by it.
