Bleach

Huh?

Are you saying that Cang Du is still alive?

Nah, defeating Ichigo (and perhaps even the Soul Society) is no longer his goal. For one, based on the fact that he controlled Yhwach's senses from within Muken, if he wanted to he could've had the whole Soul Society tripping balls the entire time he was out. Next, he is literally talking about how sparing Ichigo ended up helping him in the page you posted. But most importantly, Yhwach's plan was specifically to create a future where Kyouka Suigetsu was disabled, because it's a hard counter to The Almighty. Aizen couldn't have been releasing KS there, as otherwise Yhwach would've accomplished nothing by allowing Ichigo to kill him.

He didn't shatter Suigetsu, it merged with his body. You can see him materialize it when he's fighting Yhwach.

Aizen's Bankai is Kubo.

I thought Aizen wanted to kill the soul king…

Bankai?

Am I the only one who regrets the anime didn't give Orihime her brown eyes until TYBW? They suit her better than the grey/purple they went for.

How was he supposed to do that?

She looks good with both. I'm actually much more bothered by how dark her hair color Kubo intended to be. It just ain't the same as her iconic burnt orange. And even he seems to flip flop a little, as he given's her lighter colors in recent colored drawings.

Nani?

Cang Du lost–

Tell me something I don’t know.

Don't project your inadequacies onto me, wasn't it you who first failed to defeat kurosaki?

Cang Du~

I don't know why, but seeing Arrancar-outfit Orihime always fills me such an overwhelming bittersweet feeling of nostalgia. Despite all of its massive faults, that arc remains my very favorite of Bleach.

Aizen tried, but every time Aizen tries to lock eyes with Ichigo, Ichigo turns away. Subconsciously, maybe as a side effect of being a soul king candidate, he just knows to look away. Presumably since Aizen IS KS now, he only needs to lock eyes with someone to use it.

elaborate

Because the azure dragon is not an evil deity, pretty self explanatory.
Momo would be able to if his was a real fruit.

I get the same nostalgic feeling for the first opening dispite only watching Bleach 3 years ago for the first time

Bankai is the most powerful ability of a soul reaper and he went the whole series without having to use it. Pretty scary how powerful he is.

every time Aizen tries to lock eyes with Ichigo, Ichigo turns away

On top of everything else, Ichigo is half anime girl in love.

Kyoka Suigetsu's incarnated form must be the hottest girl ever

it'll be prolly blind just to complete Kubo's fetishism

That's hot

Depending on how you interpret the unsealing scene with Shunsui, I think it might be an impossibility. If you assume that Aizen was sealed up like picrel, then the convo with Yhwach in Muken must have happened through Reiatsu. If that's true, that means Aizen had the seal over his eyes and still managed to cast KS on Yhwach.
That said, I think the reality is as you're saying, and that Aizen simply managed to work off a few of his seals himself. Remember that Shunsui was shitting himself when Aizen was walking about despite him having only unsealed his mouth. I think what happened was Shunsui saw that Aizen already freed his left eye (remember, the version of Aizen Yhwach saw had only his left eye freed as well) and his ankles, so he just decided to play along and unseal just those parts.
Though you could argue all of that was KS itself, since he released it on everyone decades prior (in which case it would again imply that he hypnotized Yhwach without a line of sight). We just don't know how he's messing with everyone.
But that's what gives the dude his charm.

Wtf are you guys talking? There is no logical connection here. What does aizen have to do with cang du

Personally, I'm very fond of the Winter War it since features two of the best antagonists in the entire series and has an incredibly tense and even emotional dynamic between them and the two stars of the arc. Kubo sadly never reached that height again, neither in FB and certainly not in TYBW.

Was Aizen gay?

I jerked off to Soi Fon. Because of her I forgive all of Kubo's faults.

Ichigo fulfilled that dream.
He killed the SK twice

Only for Ichigo

What a load of bullshit
Ichigo is immune, because he touched KS before release, and because Aizen chose not to put him under hypnosis

He mogged Hashuvalto

Too bad Kubo didn't want to keep Ulquiorra around for TYBW. Actually, MrTommo2304 made an interesting video about it a few years ago, what does Anon Babble think of it btw?

MrTommo2304

He will be in hell. Remember according to the Hell arc, beings with reiatsu as or more dense than a Captain's can't be reintegrated into Soul Society. The only place they can go is hell.

Is the thread filled with bots?

im not a bot

Oh I remember this shit. How this guy claims he's a Bleach expert, and a huge fan of Ulquiorra even, is beyond me. At least he does acknowledge the finality of Ulquiorra's death (no purification) but the major issue is the heart, unironically. Suggesting he'd run away mid-fight denies him his final epiphany which is fundamental to his development. So Orihime has to heal him, no matter what; the true limits of her godlike powers are never explained, so it can be framed as an exceptional act. He'd also definitely not return to his backstory bramble, since it's implied he found it unsatisfying, otherwise he never would've joined Aizen to leave that "happiness". Plus, he openly admits he's become interested in humans. He would not give a shit about Hueco Mundo or "order" (the fuck he pulled this from?), and would only ever intervene once he either understands the stakes, or people like Orihime convince him to fight; probably both. I wouldn't put it past him to continue observing Ichigo and Orihime in the Human World, instead of staying in HM. He also overestimates his loyalty to Aizen, given his hidden SE + disobeying orders when he goes after Ichigo when Nnoitra did the same shit with Sado. This is more headcanon, but when you combine it with his potential recruitment (why would a nihilist care about someone's cause?), it suggests his loyalty to Aizen is earned, making him more autonomous. In terms of battles, idc much about that. He'd definitely not job like Grimmjow, at least. Anyway, I think that's enough from me. Dude can barely even write compelling fanfiction.
Being sent to Hell for starting to grasp the Heart is a terrible thematic look; this is undoubtedly why Ulquiorra wasn't in the movie. Really, it's completely nonsensical to justify his presence anywhere, given his full circle finality (returns to nothingness once he finds meaning).

Aizen is gay itll definitely be a man

Aizen is gay

Only for Ichigo

Based Soi Fon enjoyer.

Being sent to Hell for starting to grasp the Heart is a terrible thematic look

And Captains like Ukitake or Yamamato who had heroic deaths isn't?

Really, it's completely nonsensical to justify his presence anywhere, given his full circle finality (returns to nothingness once he finds meaning).

I agree with this, but if ALL beings strong enough are sent to Hell trumps that idea, then he will definitely be there.
