The thread has such a general title, because I want to discuss a general concept. "Flying"
Now as we know, Ichigo used Yoruichi's family heirloom that Soi-Fon called(hilariously) the "Sky-Walker" cloak to fly up to Rukia's impending execution and subsequently own the Soukyoku(i spelled it wrong didn't I?)
But we also knew from early Bleach where Ichigo fights Orihime's brother who had become the hollow Acidwire, that he could float in the air by collecting reishi under his feet. In essence, not flying, but air walking. Shinji literally demonstrated this in his first up-side down appearance, as well when he first fought Ichigo. Then actually running on the air away from Chad and Orihime while carrying Hiyori.
Now, I said all that because it seems you can only do this air walking in the human world, and not in SS. The question of why Yammy was made to fall by Uryu's bomb back in The Lust arc made a lot question why he didn't just fly and just stupidly fell. It was a good question since back in the living world he was easily floating up in the air sitting on his butt bored while watching Luppi troll Matsumoto, Yumichika, and Ikkaku.
It seems like I have seen people air walking in Hueco Mundo, but I don't remember. Ulq had wings, and the characters can actually jump to high heights with their reiatsu and agility, but I don't remember actual air-walking. I need to refresh my memory.
The thing is though, they should be able to do it in SS and Hueco Mundo. I don't see why not? Both places have more reishi than the human world, and reishi is what the shinigami, hollows, and arrancar use to float in the living world. Though one says, because there isn't much of it in the living world this is why they are allowed to float because of the difference in composition and the ratio between spiritrons(reishi) and atoms.
But if that's true, then why can Uryu still do his Hirenkyaku technique of platform manifestation in Hueco Mundo when he took Orihime up to the dome; a technique which he first used in the garganta going there. Hirenkyaku is basically a more evolved and refined version of the air-walking everyone does in the living world by definition. It gather's the reishi under the feet and uses it for high speed movement on par with shunpo(flash step), and sonido. So if he could do that in HM, then one should be able to air walk there too? So then why can one not do air walk at all in Soul Society which also like HM, has more reishi than the living world? I mean, Yumichika and Ganju almost actually fell into that execution pit.
The thing is, I know I'm probably getting something very important erroneous and a simple correction will answer all these things at once which will result in a "[/thread]" tag. o_0
