So the other day I was thinking about Renji achieving his true Bankai. Well I guess more accurately his full Bankai. Then I realised his Hihio form is just a snake while his Sōō form has more animal characteristics. Then realised how small an amount of Zabimaru as a spirit is actually snake. Literally just the tail. I can now see how much of Zabimaru wasn’t being used. That explains the drastic increase between the partial and full
I know I know his Bankai is seen as a joke by the fanbase but when you break down the concept it’s actually pretty cool. A Bankai that once released begins to charge. While charging it slowing increases the users physical stats. Then once fully charge it releases that power to massively boost the users physical stats to an insane degree. Until such time as the charge runs out. It’s a simple but also cool concept. The problem is Kubo not letting Ikakku be strong enough for his Bankai to actually matter
I know this is probably a stupid question but how was Yhwach able to use the almighty after being painted over by Ichibe? He was no longer Yhwach so he shouldn’t have had the almighty anymore. I initially assumed it was activated before ichibe used his power but they explicitly say he had to wait until the moment we see it activated to activate it so he couldn’t have activated it beforehand
