Unohana last words of "there is nothing better than dying after fulfilling your role" kinda makes Yamamoto death even more depressing because he wasn't able to fulfill his role in protecting the soul society and died a disgraceful death.
The arrogance and pride of the Soul Society and by extension the Soul Reapers is the root cause of nearly all the major conflicts in Bleach not to mention all the countless innocent folks that got killed as a result. Makes me truly wonder if all the souls in Hell are truly "evil" and deserving of eternal torture with all the constant BS going on in the Soul Society, Hueco Mundo and Earth.

Just to emphasize for people - that part where they're all bone IS NOT METAPHOR. THAT IS LITERALLY HAPPENING. The *shikai* Minazuki (Flesh-Drops Gorge) heals you. The *bankai* Minazuki (All Things End) is ACID that strips everything from your bones completely. (NOTE: they're said the same, "Minazuki," but they're two totally different names and have totally different kanji. Unohana is using her bankai to damage them BOTH at an insane rate while using her healing kidou to HEAL them at an insane rate, in effect getting the same result as she was when she was killing/healing Zaraki, but at a WAY faster rate. She couldn't do that immediately because it would just straight up kill Zaraki, because of how much he was restricting himself. Each death caused him to subconsciously move past those limitations, until the point where he could withstand her bankai, which she used to get him even closer to where he was (possibly beyond that, even). So yeah - she's melting them both TO THE BONE and healing them. That's how insane her bankai is.
And just to clarify - Unohana DID NOT LET HIM WIN. She simply leveled him back up to where he was able to beat her. Remember - she LOST that first fight against him. She knew way back then that he was the true Kenpachi, but she didn't give him the title. She simply relinquished it, and someone ELSE took it up. Zaraki killed the NINTH Kenpachi to become the 10th. Letting him win would serve no purpose, because it would mean that she could raise him up even higher. That's what she was saying - if there are two who can claim the title, they will either be fighting each other, or one will be nurturing the other. It ONLY ends in death. She raised him back up to the point where he was able to surpass her, but the only proof that he could have that he surpassed her would be to beat her. And in a death battle, "winning" means YOU KILL YOUR OPPONENT. You're not holding anything back. So they only way she could really know that he was stronger was for him to kill her.

This fight is just so damn cool. The details like Kenpachi literally melting away, and stuff like Unohana saying Bankai. I’m just glad that bleach came back with this much 🔥
Reminded of the brief chills I got after the Ichigo-Zaraki fight way back, when Zaraki held his sword up, going "It's probably too late at this point, but if I asked, I don't suppose you'd tell me...what your name is?"
Let it be known that the new current Zaraki wouldn’t exist without Unohana’s guidance and blessing. Yes he has more spiritual pressure/raw strength and potential then her but she could have outright ended him at any point in this battle since she has far greater skill, hax and experience, what makes that clear is bidding him farewell just allowing him to pierce and finish her off, sacrificing herself. As for their 1st fight she was caught off guard not expecting a child to be able to even harm her as it was explicitly shown + she never used Bankai. Zaraki himself would agree and slaughter anyone that dares to disrespect her only to bring him up. R.I.P to the 1st Kenpachi Yachiru Unohana as the last remaining member of the OG 13 Court Guards Squads as the best and strongest woman in all of BLEACH. You got to pass on your legacy and on your own terms.
Thanks Captain Obvious, but no one asked. Like all of your other commnt on Unohana on basically every single video and community post possible, we get it, your a simp.
I see your on another reaction channel to make an incredibly misguided assessment of the fight. The entire point is that zaraki made himself weaker than her. So the “training” is her bringing zaraki to the edge of death until he is at his full strength. Saying unohana let zaraki kill her discredits both character’s strength and ideals. And as to unohana being surprised in the first fight makes no sense. The man was literally sitting on top of a mountain of bodies. Unuhana got cut because zaraki was better end of story.
@@KingkuntaGG Everyone has a perspective view point on everything, even if you don’t agree with it as long as he’s not bringing anyone else down that’s all that matters and even then it wouldn’t matter too much since we’re talking about fictional characters, so I don’t see your whole Truth had an “incredibly stupid and misguided assessment”. If you hadn’t noticed Zaraki made himself weaker than her towards the end of the fight after seeing her exhausted before him and just like the end of that fight, she allowed herself to be sacrificed for the greater good by a biding him farewell just before he pierced her, by no means is that “discrediting both characters strengths and ideals”, if anything it’s only fair and an honest assessment of the truth based on her actions. Also, I am having a mountain of bodies as something redundant and by no means impressive since she can do the same thing as being the most notorious criminal in soul society’s history. Unohana underestimated him as a child not expecting one to have such strength of brutality, that’s why she got cut, what makes no sense is believing that he’s somehow inherently better than her because of that.
Reading this gave one impression, watching studio perriot handle this was worth the wait. Time Kubo is proof that your greatest success and triumph lies after your greatest fall. As a bleach reader 10 yrs in the wait my expectations were eclipsed.
Damn both Yamamoto and Unohana Bankai are so villainous and explains why they haven't used it before because it usually is dangerous for the user and the people in the vicinity.
Remind me why she never participated in the quincy invasion? Squad 4 sitting out makes sense but Unohana? Hell nah. Like imagine if she had actually contributed in that whole fiasco. So many shinigami might have lived through it and wouldn't have to needlessly die. Also whats the point in her dying here? I know they try to justify it with the whole there can be only one kenpachi but that just isn't a good reason. Sereitei REALLY cant afford to lose someone as strong as her and one of their best healers on top of that. I love bleach but man the writing around Unohana is a mess lmao 🤣
@@sammydray5919 What was she supposed to do? Heal the corpses? Use her bankai only for it to immediately stolen? She could've fought them without it, but that wouldn't have changed much
Quick note. Apperently her bankai makes both her and her oponent became skellies as u saw and unable to die, so she can fight endlesly with hernoponent untill one of them depleats their reatsu
It’s even unsaid in the manga but we don’t actually know what her Bankai is or the specifics of its abilities, *BUT* it’s best described like this: She can summon and use *SUPER* powerful acid that looks a lot like blood. Also, she’s not killing him. If he was really dead then there’s no going back from that. She’s healing him on the *brink* of death. Also also: *WHAT* ?!! 🤯🤯😱🤯😱🤯🤯 His Zonpacto is a girl?!!😱🤯🤯🤯
Glad to be able to visualize this fight like this. When I read it in the manga, I was so confused on what her bankai actually did. RIP Yachiru Unohana, the GOAT.
That battle was everything people waited for. It was everything people fought for, since now 10 years. Can't wait for next week.
2 роки тому+11
I think Unohana's Bankai can melt anything including herself. Thanks to Kaido, she was able to continuously heal Zaraki and herself. Thus, the battle between the two was continued until Zaraki fully awakened and that was Unohana's last wish. She has more than enough power to heal all her wounds but she doesn't do so just to leave the title of Kenpachi reserved for the only worthy one.
If she could heal or not, doesn't matter Zaraki was stronger than her at that stage, and she prolly couldn't keep up if that fight continued, than Zaraki could maybe get into a loop and again think of her as when he was a kid. She died at the perfect moment, but she realised he surpassed her when he came at her and she was shocked. She knew the fight was over pretty much than. She's not the character that would give up her life like that, she realised she was no match for him anymore. And passed on the torch to the new Kenpachi.
@@TheFlexibilityMaster We don't know if it's true. He was literally melting in the anime/manga. 💀. It's safe to assume it has acidic propertiies. Let's not pretend like Minazuki in shikai doesn't literally heal people with stomach acid 😂. Bros be delusional.
@@Kaden786 what kind of acid only melts perfectly half of a body when it's equal exposure lol. The way he talks too during that whole im melting monologue is that his restraints on his power are melting away and that he's finally fully awake and reborn.
I am so very happy we didn't get a half-assed version 10 years ago. I always kept track of any news of an anime adaptation and I was disappointed for so long, but now when it is here, I am so glad that they waited to do it right.
Well healing is nice, but if you miss raw power to beat something, than you can heal all you want. They lost a power house in Yamamoto so they really needed brute strenght to replace that prolly. It prolly wasn't really needed for her to die, think that was pretty lame as she could still have usage especially as she wasn't really a kenpachi anymore. But meh think having her healing would be pretty OP to but more boring than a power house I suppose.
@@quickie17 yeah I agree, her dying doesn't really make sense, but than again maybe it did as they are power hungry fighting like beings. Imagine they had to fight there, if they end up sparring or fighting everytime on top it would pretty much destroy everything. So I suppose that's why there can only be 1 kenpachi at a time no clue. It was not needed in my opinion but it prolly has it's reasons.
The thing is that all that was for nothing the miracle was literally kill by the plot, Kempachi full on bankai could kill him but his body was to weak for his power.
@@quickie17she said it’s inevitable they would end up fighting and one dying regardless. There were other kenpachis just none to unohana’s level except zaraki. She already explained why it could only be one. She only learned to heal to enjoy the battle she could’ve easily ignored the orders and went out to heal some of the soul reapers she didn’t for a reason. And if her bankai would’ve been stolen it would be over for the soul society
To better understand Unohana’s Bankai Minazuki in its Shikai state is like a manta ray that heals people within its stomach, using its unique stomach acid to heal individuals in contrast the Bankai is an immensely fast acting acid from the blood when she activates that can reduce an individual to a skeleton, which is why Kenpachi asked himself was he melting also this acid is also potentially fatal Unohana herself, that is why we saw her and Kenpachi like skeletons, however with Unohana’s mastery of Kaido which is a form of healing Kido she uses it to mitigate the effects of her Bankai to heal both herself and Kenpachi
This is just speculation, it was never confirmed officially. Pretty sure, the melting was in his mind, he stopped hallucinating once he said he woke up. I feel like it would be way more obvious if he was melting by some acid, not split straight down perfectly like two-face
@@StealthNinjaBob Yeah you might be right on the Bleach wiki there was initially an explanation behind the acid but it's not there anymore. I do think that since she's been using Kaido to heal and bring him back from the brink of death that it seems it's what her Bankai does plus it's the perfect antithesis to her Shikai.
I do stand corrected that it appears according to a video from MrTommo2304 that Unohana’s Bankai isn’t acid based like I originally thought instead, the ability appears to be how her blood is Weaponized, and it can be used both offensively and defensively offensively it can act as like extensions of her sword, where she can strike from a distance, but defensively, it can also be use to make something of a shield to protect her from incoming attacks, and quite possibly the blood that is created, can also be used to heal her
Now you know why even way back in Soul Society arc, Byakuya told Ichigo that his Bankai and Zanpakuto don't really seem like they are that. Well, they aren't.
Just some helpful info since I know y’all don’t remember 😂. Zaraki named himself after the district he was in, and named his lieutenant in the same way “Yachiru Kusajishi” her first name from the person he most admired (Unohana Yachiru) and her last name the district he found her in. That’s why he says “Kenpachi of Zaraki” he decided to claim that title by killing the 10th Kenpachi before him who we see in this episode, making Zaraki the 11th, the 8th Kenpachi also fought Zaraki and was probably down there in Muken with Aizen watching the whole battle go down lmao
With the awakened partner line shes basically saying know the shackles he placed on himself are off, he can learn his zanpaktou's name hence the voice at the end.
Ever since the manga chapter released where she went Bankai and no one knew wtf it did, I always subscribed to the idea it was on some Bloodborne bloodtinge shit like Lady Maria. Glad to finally be validated.
Unohana's death was more than just unlocking Zaraki's full power and passing on the title of "Kenpachi". After Yama died, Unohana was the last fragment from the old guard, the last remnant of the dark days. Her dying here symbolizes that the SS is entering a new era, where they can leave behind the sinful past and look towards the future
Yeah, that's...optimistic...for his chances. Of course, it would be better than a Kenpachi/Ichigo fight, because the former would result in just Renji dying, while the latter could result in half of Soul Society being leveled. At full power, those two are easily stronger then the entire Gotei, and probably stronger than the Zero Squad.
She didn't let him win. She gave everything she had and knew that was the end. I don't think from what what we just learned about her that she would just let someone win.
11:06 not necassarily his sword, but the powers of a soul reaper were given....yet he started off with a large ass sword... Here is another thing to note: from day 1, rukia, when giving ichigo his powers...rukia mentioned that he was supposed to take a small portion of her powers "temporarily"... but he ended up "absorbing" all of her powers.... something that you would only see from a quincy(power to absorb spirit energy)... Looking back on it, that was a major hint that was glossed over..
Can we talk about how much of a beast Kid Zaraki was? Not only was this boy able to push a Captain of the strongest generation of the Gotei 13(AKA the most notorious criminal in history) but almost defeat her in battle as well. And the only reason he didn’t was because he handicapped himself and subconsciously thought “Hey if I cut her down now, I won’t be able to have fun anymore.”
This is a complete copy paste that isn’t even entirely or accurately true since you’re not giving credit to the woman responsible. She didn’t have healing capabilities back then and didn’t even attempt to use her Bankai going all out, it was just base to base.
Ichigo failing the test while Renji doesn't makes sense for two main reasons: 1. Ichigo doesn't understand himself or his past while Renji understands his. For all the slack Renji gets, he is honestly one of the model Soul Reapers in Soul Society, and has fully come to terms with the struggling past he and Rukia had, and looks forward to the future clearly. Ichigo has only ever understood certain aspects of himself, and rejected others, including actually understanding his mother and who she was, rather than just accepting her death. 2. Ichigo has never been a proper Soul Reaper, and has constantly taken shortcuts to obtain the power he has. From gaining his Soul Reaper powers in three unusual means, to obtaining Bankai in 3 years. Ichigo speed ran a process that takes tens if not hundreds of years in about 3. He needs to finally go through the proper channels of gaining his powers, which Oetsu won't do until Ichigo has the first reason.
Kenpachi was like a gunfighter who was so ridiculously fast he could win every duel by closing the distance and pistol whipping his enemy to death. Now he's finally loading the gun.
We have seen Unohana's Shikai before, in the 2nd arc. It is this giant, green ray which can float and heal people. Minazuki is the name, like her bankai's.
Probably two of the most terrifying and brutal Soul Reapers to ever exist just going at it. My only complaint is that the fight is already over. We saw how strong Kenny was when he decided to use the absolute most basic swordsman techniques and use two hands. Now this absolute monster has Shikai.
@11:07 plus Ichigo has been ignoring half of his powers ever since he got zangetsu. He's been rejecting white ichigo for the longest because he is too hollow-like despite the fact that white ichigo when asked who he(it?) & Where's old man zangetsu said *" he is me & I'm him."* This went over Ichigo's head completely.
The fight was a little short, I was hoping to get more. Especially more for Unohanas Bankai. Also it’s a shame she had to die like that, I get it’s to make Kenpachi stronger but it’s just a waste of the strongest female Shinigami

Thanks Captain Obvious, but no one asked. Like all of your other commnt on Unohana on basically every single video and community post possible, we get it, your a simp.
I see your on another reaction channel to make an incredibly misguided assessment of the fight. The entire point is that zaraki made himself weaker than her. So the “training” is her bringing zaraki to the edge of death until he is at his full strength. Saying unohana let zaraki kill her discredits both character’s strength and ideals. And as to unohana being surprised in the first fight makes no sense. The man was literally sitting on top of a mountain of bodies. Unuhana got cut because zaraki was better end of story.
@@KingkuntaGGno reason to call him stupid etc. state your rebuttals and move on
@@ThyBait He's not calling him stupid he's saying his assessment was stupid.
@@KingkuntaGG
Everyone has a perspective view point on everything, even if you don’t agree with it as long as he’s not bringing anyone else down that’s all that matters and even then it wouldn’t matter too much since we’re talking about fictional characters, so I don’t see your whole Truth had an “incredibly stupid and misguided assessment”.
If you hadn’t noticed Zaraki made himself weaker than her towards the end of the fight after seeing her exhausted before him and just like the end of that fight, she allowed herself to be sacrificed for the greater good by a biding him farewell just before he pierced her, by no means is that “discrediting both characters strengths and ideals”, if anything it’s only fair and an honest assessment of the truth based on her actions. Also, I am having a mountain of bodies as something redundant and by no means impressive since she can do the same thing as being the most notorious criminal in soul society’s history. Unohana underestimated him as a child not expecting one to have such strength of brutality, that’s why she got cut, what makes no sense is believing that he’s somehow inherently better than her because of that.
Reading this gave one impression, watching studio perriot handle this was worth the wait. Time Kubo is proof that your greatest success and triumph lies after your greatest fall. As a bleach reader 10 yrs in the wait my expectations were eclipsed.
Everytime Kenny is on screen doing something crazy I'm reminded for some reason Levi screaming the name Kenny out 😂😂😂
Hearing Unohana say "Bankai" is literally a chill down the spine.
How’d nobody peep the “it’s morbin time” they put over the “Bankai” 😭😂😂
Damn both Yamamoto and Unohana Bankai are so villainous and explains why they haven't used it before because it usually is dangerous for the user and the people in the vicinity.
What?
Dude.. they've both used their Bankai's before ...
They're not the only ones with bankai's like that
@@intothefrayyo he means in the anime
Remind me why she never participated in the quincy invasion? Squad 4 sitting out makes sense but Unohana? Hell nah. Like imagine if she had actually contributed in that whole fiasco. So many shinigami might have lived through it and wouldn't have to needlessly die.
Also whats the point in her dying here? I know they try to justify it with the whole there can be only one kenpachi but that just isn't a good reason. Sereitei REALLY cant afford to lose someone as strong as her and one of their best healers on top of that.
I love bleach but man the writing around Unohana is a mess lmao 🤣
@@sammydray5919 What was she supposed to do? Heal the corpses? Use her bankai only for it to immediately stolen? She could've fought them without it, but that wouldn't have changed much
The next episode is going to be insane one of the best arcs in all of bleach
unohana's bankai was so well done in the anime.
10:29 - 10:34 Roshi: "I don't really remember this part." Boy you are about to LEARN!
i bet renji felt like the kid whose homework the teacher used as an example to the class despite this kid being an underachiever
6:39 "We've been trying to reach you about your car's extended warranty "
This season is for all the OG Bleach fans who didn't make it to see this Masterpiece🍺😁.
My boy Renji finally getting the respect he deserves...hahahah
What respect?
“We’ve been trying to reach you regarding your Bankai’s extended warranty”
Aww looked forward to see their reaction to her saying Bankai
Same bruh they cut it out
Imagine telling someone you killed Kenpachi Zaraki a thousand times, NOW THAT'S A FLEX
Y’all edits are top tier i swear.. black lagoon part had me dead😤🤣😂
Quick note. Apperently her bankai makes both her and her oponent became skellies as u saw and unable to die, so she can fight endlesly with hernoponent untill one of them depleats their reatsu
Kenpachi has been on BASE FORM this entire time and now he has a Shikai.
He's unstoppable now. It's a wrap for the Quincies.
Bruh….
Nvm
@@ThyBait lol nope, his ace in the hole was taking off an eyepatch that restricted him to a fraction of his base form's power.
@@matthewhelland9258 I know that much I my comment is spoilers though so I’ll edit it
It’s even unsaid in the manga but we don’t actually know what her Bankai is or the specifics of its abilities, *BUT* it’s best described like this:
She can summon and use *SUPER* powerful acid that looks a lot like blood.
Also, she’s not killing him. If he was really dead then there’s no going back from that. She’s healing him on the *brink* of death.
Also also: *WHAT* ?!! 🤯🤯😱🤯😱🤯🤯 His Zonpacto is a girl?!!😱🤯🤯🤯
Let’s be honest, Zaraki and Unohana are a match made in hell.
Nimaiya is the perfect otaku. He can bring his ideal waifus to life🤣
I love how quickly Ohetsu switches between goofy and serious. Makes for a really interesting dynamic.
Glad to be able to visualize this fight like this. When I read it in the manga, I was so confused on what her bankai actually did.
RIP Yachiru Unohana, the GOAT.
Kenpachi a masochist confirmed. Bro did anything so that he could feel true pain.
Next eps gonna be one of the best backstories in Bleach. It was pretty sad😔
“Im going for the parry’s, it’s more clutch” 😂🤣😂🤣
2:48 Dude is literally Kid Buu of a Soul Reaper. That's how dangerous he was.
Kenpachi : BANKAI!!!
”SLIM SHADY!!!”
3:46 When she said "It's Morbin Time", I felt that.
Unohana gave some real Souls boss vibes when she hit that Phase II (Bankai). And I mean, the hidden, optional hardest boss-type vibes. Malenia?
That battle was everything people waited for. It was everything people fought for, since now 10 years.
Can't wait for next week.
I think Unohana's Bankai can melt anything including herself. Thanks to Kaido, she was able to continuously heal Zaraki and herself. Thus, the battle between the two was continued until Zaraki fully awakened and that was Unohana's last wish. She has more than enough power to heal all her wounds but she doesn't do so just to leave the title of Kenpachi reserved for the only worthy one.
If she could heal or not, doesn't matter Zaraki was stronger than her at that stage, and she prolly couldn't keep up if that fight continued, than Zaraki could maybe get into a loop and again think of her as when he was a kid. She died at the perfect moment, but she realised he surpassed her when he came at her and she was shocked. She knew the fight was over pretty much than. She's not the character that would give up her life like that, she realised she was no match for him anymore. And passed on the torch to the new Kenpachi.
nah that's just a fan theory. The acid melting isn't true.
@@TheFlexibilityMaster We don't know if it's true. He was literally melting in the anime/manga. 💀. It's safe to assume it has acidic propertiies. Let's not pretend like Minazuki in shikai doesn't literally heal people with stomach acid 😂. Bros be delusional.
@@Kaden786 what kind of acid only melts perfectly half of a body when it's equal exposure lol. The way he talks too during that whole im melting monologue is that his restraints on his power are melting away and that he's finally fully awake and reborn.
..... Remind me why she couldn't heal Byakuya and Rukia again? 😒
I am so very happy we didn't get a half-assed version 10 years ago. I always kept track of any news of an anime adaptation and I was disappointed for so long, but now when it is here, I am so glad that they waited to do it right.
It has been confirmed we will get one hour special on ep12 😍😍😍😍 bleach is fire!
I always felt that they really could of used the healer over more damage in the coming war or found a way to power up Zakrai and keep her alive
Well healing is nice, but if you miss raw power to beat something, than you can heal all you want. They lost a power house in Yamamoto so they really needed brute strenght to replace that prolly. It prolly wasn't really needed for her to die, think that was pretty lame as she could still have usage especially as she wasn't really a kenpachi anymore. But meh think having her healing would be pretty OP to but more boring than a power house I suppose.
@@FordiusNLD her power is more versatile doesn't make sense that they couldn't have just gotten Ken strong enough and been like let's both leave?
@@quickie17 yeah I agree, her dying doesn't really make sense, but than again maybe it did as they are power hungry fighting like beings. Imagine they had to fight there, if they end up sparring or fighting everytime on top it would pretty much destroy everything. So I suppose that's why there can only be 1 kenpachi at a time no clue. It was not needed in my opinion but it prolly has it's reasons.
The thing is that all that was for nothing the miracle was literally kill by the plot, Kempachi full on bankai could kill him but his body was to weak for his power.
@@quickie17she said it’s inevitable they would end up fighting and one dying regardless. There were other kenpachis just none to unohana’s level except zaraki. She already explained why it could only be one. She only learned to heal to enjoy the battle she could’ve easily ignored the orders and went out to heal some of the soul reapers she didn’t for a reason. And if her bankai would’ve been stolen it would be over for the soul society
The Shikai and bankai have the same name but one of the kanji are different.
Shikai means flesh drop gone
Bankai means all things end
To better understand Unohana’s Bankai Minazuki in its Shikai state is like a manta ray that heals people within its stomach, using its unique stomach acid to heal individuals in contrast the Bankai is an immensely fast acting acid from the blood when she activates that can reduce an individual to a skeleton, which is why Kenpachi asked himself was he melting also this acid is also potentially fatal Unohana herself, that is why we saw her and Kenpachi like skeletons, however with Unohana’s mastery of Kaido which is a form of healing Kido she uses it to mitigate the effects of her Bankai to heal both herself and Kenpachi
This is just speculation, it was never confirmed officially. Pretty sure, the melting was in his mind, he stopped hallucinating once he said he woke up. I feel like it would be way more obvious if he was melting by some acid, not split straight down perfectly like two-face
@@StealthNinjaBob Yeah you might be right on the Bleach wiki there was initially an explanation behind the acid but it's not there anymore. I do think that since she's been using Kaido to heal and bring him back from the brink of death that it seems it's what her Bankai does plus it's the perfect antithesis to her Shikai.
I do stand corrected that it appears according to a video from MrTommo2304 that Unohana’s Bankai isn’t acid based like I originally thought instead, the ability appears to be how her blood is Weaponized, and it can be used both offensively and defensively offensively it can act as like extensions of her sword, where she can strike from a distance, but defensively, it can also be use to make something of a shield to protect her from incoming attacks, and quite possibly the blood that is created, can also be used to heal her
Unohana is absolutely terrifying
Now you know why even way back in Soul Society arc, Byakuya told Ichigo that his Bankai and Zanpakuto don't really seem like they are that. Well, they aren't.
The sequence of scenes was genius this episode. It tells you what Kenpachi's zanpakuto is without outright saying it.
Just some helpful info since I know y’all don’t remember 😂. Zaraki named himself after the district he was in, and named his lieutenant in the same way “Yachiru Kusajishi” her first name from the person he most admired (Unohana Yachiru) and her last name the district he found her in. That’s why he says “Kenpachi of Zaraki” he decided to claim that title by killing the 10th Kenpachi before him who we see in this episode, making Zaraki the 11th, the 8th Kenpachi also fought Zaraki and was probably down there in Muken with Aizen watching the whole battle go down lmao
kenpachi was a monster without even shikai so this is a giant step for kenny
With the awakened partner line shes basically saying know the shackles he placed on himself are off, he can learn his zanpaktou's name hence the voice at the end.
3:45 I liked this part when Unohana said "It's Morbin time" and morbed all over the place.
Damm they cut the bankai out man that was one of the best parts
“Its morphing time” 💀💀💀
LMFOAOAO nahh
Renji about to be damn near unstoppable
hell not even Bazz b could move the guy and bazz b a def top 10 sternritter
Ever since the manga chapter released where she went Bankai and no one knew wtf it did, I always subscribed to the idea it was on some Bloodborne bloodtinge shit like Lady Maria. Glad to finally be validated.
My man Oetsu said this ain't a time limit, it's a vibe limit Ichigo chan.
Doing the Sad Cat Dance beg pose without Yourichi is a crime in and of itself!
So when he says reverting to his roots does he mean discover his origins pretty much?
I believe so. Think we're about to get his parent's story.
@@enoughrumble7209 oh really that’s good to hear
@@enoughrumble7209wait what? We met his parents in the manga?
@@ThyBait idk I haven’t read the manga, I’m just assuming that’s where the story is leading next.
Without spoiling, yes and no. We are getting his origins but there’s more to reverting your roots that’s being presented here.
Unohana's death was more than just unlocking Zaraki's full power and passing on the title of "Kenpachi".
After Yama died, Unohana was the last fragment from the old guard, the last remnant of the dark days. Her dying here symbolizes that the SS is entering a new era, where they can leave behind the sinful past and look towards the future
Did y'all peep how Renji was shown when Unouhana said Zaraki has people that can fight with him now?
Yeah, that's...optimistic...for his chances. Of course, it would be better than a Kenpachi/Ichigo fight, because the former would result in just Renji dying, while the latter could result in half of Soul Society being leveled. At full power, those two are easily stronger then the entire Gotei, and probably stronger than the Zero Squad.
@theprogressivecynic2407 its a fact that they are stronger than the Zero
@@theprogressivecynic2407 Nah Kubo verbatim stated as a collective whole Zero Squad > Gotei 13. Can't argue with the author.
Zaraki as a kid was OP as hell dude
She didn't let him win. She gave everything she had and knew that was the end. I don't think from what what we just learned about her that she would just let someone win.
Tuesdays at Roshi's are always lit 🔥
Hahaha 7:11 my God that was a good edit!! 😂
Their edits be top tier
Unohana using Rivers of Blood Katana from Elden Ring😂😂😂 got that bleed status building 😂
Unohana got that +10 Rivers of Blood dex + faith heals build
Ichigo gotta come back and have his Jimmy Butler moment "Yall picked that nigga over ME?!"
rip unohana she was indeed the very best kenpachi 😭🥲
11:06 not necassarily his sword, but the powers of a soul reaper were given....yet he started off with a large ass sword...
Here is another thing to note: from day 1, rukia, when giving ichigo his powers...rukia mentioned that he was supposed to take a small portion of her powers "temporarily"... but he ended up "absorbing" all of her powers.... something that you would only see from a quincy(power to absorb spirit energy)...
Looking back on it, that was a major hint that was glossed over..
“Man thats alot of ketchup” 🤦🏾♂️🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Can we talk about how much of a beast Kid Zaraki was? Not only was this boy able to push a Captain of the strongest generation of the Gotei 13(AKA the most notorious criminal in history) but almost defeat her in battle as well. And the only reason he didn’t was because he handicapped himself and subconsciously thought “Hey if I cut her down now, I won’t be able to have fun anymore.”
Did my comment get copied? Word for word? Eh, have a like anyway
I was about to say I’ve seen this comment before on other videos. But not by whoever did it this time. Sorry your comment got copy and pasted bro.
This is a complete copy paste that isn’t even entirely or accurately true since you’re not giving credit to the woman responsible. She didn’t have healing capabilities back then and didn’t even attempt to use her Bankai going all out, it was just base to base.
@@truthcrusader360 Wrong
@@titekubo2002
Change your username, troll.
Ichigo failing the test while Renji doesn't makes sense for two main reasons:
1. Ichigo doesn't understand himself or his past while Renji understands his. For all the slack Renji gets, he is honestly one of the model Soul Reapers in Soul Society, and has fully come to terms with the struggling past he and Rukia had, and looks forward to the future clearly. Ichigo has only ever understood certain aspects of himself, and rejected others, including actually understanding his mother and who she was, rather than just accepting her death.
2. Ichigo has never been a proper Soul Reaper, and has constantly taken shortcuts to obtain the power he has. From gaining his Soul Reaper powers in three unusual means, to obtaining Bankai in 3 years. Ichigo speed ran a process that takes tens if not hundreds of years in about 3. He needs to finally go through the proper channels of gaining his powers, which Oetsu won't do until Ichigo has the first reason.
Kenpachi was like a gunfighter who was so ridiculously fast he could win every duel by closing the distance and pistol whipping his enemy to death. Now he's finally loading the gun.
Wow, the one part of TYBW that I do remember Roshi doesn't 😂
Y'all really can't leave my boy Renji alone?
I was waiting for y'all the whole day
We have seen Unohana's Shikai before, in the 2nd arc. It is this giant, green ray which can float and heal people. Minazuki is the name, like her bankai's.
I can’t wait for the Renji slander to stop 😂
Probably two of the most terrifying and brutal Soul Reapers to ever exist just going at it. My only complaint is that the fight is already over.
We saw how strong Kenny was when he decided to use the absolute most basic swordsman techniques and use two hands. Now this absolute monster has Shikai.
Unohana: "Wait, these bodies aren't mine. My pile's over there what's this?
Yeah but it's weird she hasn't noticed anything at all, while it was just besides her. How's that possible.
4:16 Haaa!!! Not even Malenia can be as powerful as Unohana. This character is way more badass and hardcore than Malenia.
Zaraki is a beast and now he deserves the title of "Kenpachi", R.I.P to Unohana.
Unohana bankai is basically River of Blood from Elden Ring lmao, looks like Miyazaki was a fan of Bleach
Add a reply...
Rivers of blood literally
To limit your own power to be BARELY as strong as your interpretation of the opponents power is pretty fucking dope
She didn't let him kill her, Kenpachi surpassed her and that was the main purpose of the fight.
Bruh, she be using the rivers of blood lmao.
@11:07 plus Ichigo has been ignoring half of his powers ever since he got zangetsu. He's been rejecting white ichigo for the longest because he is too hollow-like despite the fact that white ichigo when asked who he(it?) & Where's old man zangetsu said *" he is me & I'm him."* This went over Ichigo's head completely.
This is lowkey a spoiler you might wanna take it down for anime-onlies.
@@Kaden786 bruh this got revealed hella early on in the series.
The fight was a little short, I was hoping to get more. Especially more for Unohanas Bankai.
Also it’s a shame she had to die like that, I get it’s to make Kenpachi stronger but it’s just a waste of the strongest female Shinigami
If kid kenpachi fought Ichigo back in the soul society arc he would have 1 shot ichigo
The fight was actually shorter in the manga. I’m glad they extended it a bit
