Anyone gotten to that point in a debate and is brought up that Genjutsu will work on Aizen because he has zero illusion resistances? I found this cool counter-argument that follows and tries to a peace that argument:
What do you guys think?
Aizen has a specific affinity to Genjutsu because of…
The Hogyoku.
Very easy to understand, Aizen is fused with two minds:
Aizen has subjugated and is fused with not only the Hogyoku, but his own Zanpakuto (he actually has three minds) but nonetheless we’ll focus on these two.
Let’s assume Sasuke puts Aizen into a Genjutsu. What happens?
Is being in a Genjutsu worse than let’s say, having your brain destroyed?
Aizen had his brain destroyed (on panel) and the Hogyoku still responded to his innate will and regenerated him.
Why?
1. The Hogyoku realises the innate deep desires in the hearts of the users, NOT their minds.
It reads the heart and acts accordingly.
2. The Hogyoku has the ability to complete remake and replace the soul, grant powers on a whim, and increase the users power even while being sealed.
3. The Hogyoku acts of it’s own accord, and has its own mind (i’ll reiterate)
As is indicated from this, Aizen didn’t ‘wish’ or ‘hope’ for a powerup, the Hogyoku simply granted it because that was his innate desire, without him thinking it.
Here, again the Hogyoku fused Aizen with his Zanpakuto on a whim:
And Aizen only lost because he innately wanted to weaken himself has he had finally found an equal:
Did you catch it yet?
The Hogyoku can simply remake and restructure Aizen’s soul and brain if he is put into Genjutsu and sealed, making him even stronger, or just teleport him outside any seal.
Sasuke has no way to restrict the power of Aizen to his body like Mayuri or Urahara, or weaken him in any significant way because he is fodder.
Sasuke uses Genjutsu? He cannot Genjutsu the Hogyoku, meaning the Hogyoku can simply realise the desires of Aizen (which do not disappear even if he has no brain or even if he is erased) and restructure his brain and soul.
Aizen reemerges and does what he was always going to do, flatten Sasuke and the Narutoverse.
Now, since we have evidence of the Hogyoku both replacing Aizen‘s soul and brain, someone try to explain why the Hogyoku cannot break Aizen out of Genjutsu by doing so?
What do you guys think?
