gotei 13

We all know that Kubo said that this arc will be large, and therefore it doesn't seem reasonable for it to end any time soon, despite how far Yhwach has gone by now. It seems the war is far, far from over, the real war with mixed alliances (Quincy/Shinigami) has only just started~ This...

I guess this is really a pointless topic, since in shonen manga people get magically strong very conveniently for the plot, but anyway. Since quincies are humans (presumably except for Yhwach) one should expect that the Stern Ritters have a human life span. Moreover, since they were hiding from...

The strongest shinigami is the one who doesn't need his zan anymore. Ichigo reached this state briefly when he was in his 3rd form. Aizen had almost reached this state before Urahara's kidou sealed him completely. I also suspect that the strongest RG member without his zan is also a member of...

How do you think Juha Bach gained his ability? Did the soul king create him? Why was quincy world sealed? What made juha bach become so ruthless. I think it's ironic that evil villains use holiness as they their sole motivation. Why attack shinigami so vehemently when the quincies original...

Okay basically the title says it all but i will elaborate. Unohana we know was not to long ago the captain of the healing division in the gotei 13, but we have recently found out she was the 1st kenpachi. The manga never mentioned if she had the ability to heal 1000 years ago, all that was...

Byakuya = A noble, a phenomenal talent, great at Zanjustsu, proficient at Kido, has exceptionally strong reiatsu even for a captain, versatile to deal with many battle situations, quick, intelligent, formulates battle strategies & adapts to situations on a fly (evident by Tsukishima's battle)...

With the death of Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto and the badass Retsu Unohana (both from the strongest 1st Generation), I think it signaled the new generation and captaincy of the Gotei 13. As we all know, Shunsui Kyoraku is the new Captain-Commander and 1st Division Captain with Nanao Ise and...

I don't know about the others, but ever since we caught a glimpse of the Soul King, I've been very curious about what he is, and what purpose he serves. I'm sure others have noticed it too. If we compare Aizen's appearance after having fused with the Hogyoku, he started looking more and more...

Basically only making this thread so everyone who wants to say what they think on Aizen's strengths and weaknesses.... Hopefully now we can keep it to a minimum in the recent chapter discussion/prediction thread. Okay I'm going to start this by saying that i was never really a mega Aizen fan...

Who do you think will become a captain in the future? I think Renji will eventually. Who do you think?
