BAN-KAI! Bleach General Discussion

[AppleLord]

Damn. I wish Robert came back for Cour 4. You know what. Give him to Chad, have Ganju join in too. Please, anything but those statues. Have those be broken in 1 frame and have Commissioner Gordon face of the Chad.

But really, who else wishes Shaz Domino gets to fight Kira’s Bankai?

Or even mimihagi Bankai Ukitake stays around to Neff Almighty for the final battle instead of Yhwach didn’t “see the arrow coming”.

I would be surprised if Szyazel shows up with the hell arc cliffhanger as the TYBW ending.

I'm thinking about upgrading Ichigo's intelligence, I'm getting tired of waiting to get EG in combat. Also might reevaluate his general

We don't give intelligence ratings to combat skill anymore

Unlike general intelligence, combat skill is not ranked on a scale with labels like "Genius" or "Supergenius."

So you woul've been waiting forever for that

Huh, so it finally went through huh. only took like 300 years

 

[LephyrTheRevanchist]

Been like that for a month now, yeah

 

[ReaperAndBlues]

Been like that for a month now, yeah

Only a month? I thought it'd be sooner than that. oh well, I guess I can work on general intelligence then.

Aye is this where all the clorox fans at?

[Johner2133451]

Type 2 information for Bleach?

Bleach new character profile, information manipulation, high godly regen and more

Ok, this is gonna be a short yap, mostly based on the SAFWY novels, which this wiki has already accepted as canon, best proof being Kenpachi Azashiro himself and his profile here, which, btw, contains scans exclusively from the available translations, mainly about Roca Paramia and her extremely...

I was reading the SAFYW raws recently and came across this:

地が、空が、水が、木々が、死神達が、尸魂界の森羅万象が、その男の足音に合わせ、霊子を小刻みに顫動させる。
The earth, the sky, the water, the trees, the Shinigami, the *universe of the Soul Society, all gently vibrate their spiritual particles in sync with that man's footsteps.

Although the term used isn't 宇宙 (uchū), 森羅万象 (shinrabanshō) is an idiomatic expression that’s even more encompassing than 宇宙.

Wouldn't this be the most concrete piece of information we have pointing to the Soul Society being a universe and a solid 4-A (possibly Low 2-C) feat for Cien?

 

[Arc7Kuroi]

I definitely think it works to support the notion of Soul Society being a universe. what’s your Cien argument

 

[Arcker123]

Can we have the actual scan too!

(森羅万象 Shinra Banshō) most Directly means, "everything in" the universe. Not necessarily the Universe itself primarily due to the succeeding (森羅 Shinra), idiom

Although, (万象 Banshō) itself can mean Creation itself as its synonymous counterpart (万物 Banbutsu) is the (10,000 things) from Daoism... which well is all of Creation/Universe.


In case any of ya'll where wondering

I said Cien but it could also be Zaraki, the connection chapter doesn't make that clear. This is the full excerpt:

その男は、自らの歩みによって、一踏みごとに周囲の空気を震わせた。
地が、
空が、
水が、
木々が、
死神達が、
尸魂界の森羅万象が、その男の足音に合わせ、霊子を小刻みに顫動させる。
まるで、男の纏う兇猛たる鬼気に怯えているようでもあり――
男の圧倒的な力を、霊子そのものが賞賛しているようにも見えた。
そして、男が向かっていた先は――
This man, with his own steps, caused the air around him to tremble with each step.
The earth, the sky, the water, the trees, the Shinigami, the *universe of the Soul Society, made their spiritual particles vibrate gently, in sync with that man's steps.
It was as if they were trembling in fear before the fierce and demonic aura that he emanated —
Or perhaps, it seemed that the reishi itself revered the overwhelming power of that man.
And the destination that this man was heading towards was...

 

[Apotheosis69]

Most likely is directing to Zaraki

 

[Arc7Kuroi]

That very statement contextualizes it to the sphere of influence around the dude, not the entire soul soceity

Yes, that's what I thought.
However, "the universe of the Soul Society" sounds much cooler, and I've always wanted to say that

[AppleLord]

Is Official guys, Bleach x Burn The Witch Movie confirmed by Tite Kubo!

 

[Arc7Kuroi]

Uh no, nothing in that tweet says we’re getting a movie confirmed in fact Kubo doesn’t even promise anything’s confirmed, he just says “maybe I’ll tell that story”

You gotta stop being the boy who cried wolf man

Let a man have some hope

So Rebirth of Soul gave an official name for the Gran Rey Getsuga : Cero Creciente, wich is pretty dope imo.

Creciente (Growing/ever growing, cumulative, soaring/rising ,crescent etc) both referencing the shape, the fact it is an hybrid ability and can be linked to the "Heaven Piercer" part of GT.

That is so f***ing cool

 

[Lonkitt]

I think Netflix Ichigo’s car explosion durability feat is worth a calc. It shouldn’t scale to the standard car destruction calc based on the feat

I do wonder if they'll have his True Bankai be in the game, maybe as a sublimation Kikon move

Creciente is Spanish for the crescent moon

 

[LephyrTheRevanchist]

Creciente is Spanish for the crescent moon

Both are correct.

 

[AppleLord]

He doesn’t

 

[AppleLord]

Both are correct.

Yes, just letting you know Kubo is a genius. This is a callback to how the attack forms like a crescent's moon before firing it

 

[Adam1396]

Both are correct.

Well. We know kubo uses spanish names for hollows stuff. So translation from spanish is undoubtedly the accurate one.

 

[Naeblis495]

All of the meanings for creciente i posted are for spanish only (At least, that's what my 2 minutes Google search told me). It only depend on the context but it's incredible how most meanings for Creciente can be linked to different part of the ability or Ichigo.

 

[Apotheosis69]

Hope in the anime Ichigo himself says himself
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 セロ・クレシエンテ
Cero Creciente (月虚閃 Cero Kureshiente)

Found the Japanese in the japan version of the game

 

[Bastolan27]

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve spoken Spanish all my life, but not gonna lie, that sounds kinda cringe. It’s like hearing “Growing zero!” Just weird. The word has so many everyday uses that, even though "luna" creciente sounds cool in theory, it’s not at all where your mind goes when you hear it. I guess it probably sounds cooler to non-native Spanish speakers, though.

That said, most of Kubo’s Spanish actually sounds cool, even to native speakers.

 

[Apotheosis69]

I was gonna say, Creciente can mean Growing/increasing, due to the etymology of it being "Crescent" moon growing as the phase cycle goes by.

Interesting. As another spanish speaker myself Is weird that the first thing it came to your mind for "creciente" was that. The first thing it came to mind for me was the "cresent moon" which we grew up to hear a lot. I guess we speak different Spanish.

oh, boy, oh, no... multi-planetary soul king confirmed...

Yes... And both are correct lol. Mi primer idioma es español.
