hmmm, I still don't see how he's going to beat Yhwach. I'm sure he's powered up a lot but I doubt he'll be able to beat Yhwach as he is now

Not sure if this form is badass or ridiculous xD, all the other forms were straight up badass but this one is below the usual standards so I assume (and hope) this is not the final Ichigo's form.

Not really. I assume we'll get an explanation next chapter, but all he did was combine the three powers he already had. He looks a bit like Tensa Zangetsu from the Deicide arc.

This chapter was fine until that final double page spread. Seriously, that half human/half Hollow face looks completely ridiculous. It reminds me of David Bowie but Ichigo can't really pull it off.

Yeah, I too hope that "Bowie-Ichigo" is just a transition rather than the final form.

I doubt the look is permanent by the way. Whenever he goes Bankai I expect some things to change. I think it's mainly the one horn that bugs people but I get why it's like that.

It looks like the halfway point between Shikai and Bankai and I'm guessing he's going to get at least one more power up before the end.

Also disappointed in no Isshin or Ryuuken, c'mon Kubo

I wonder, is Kubo going Yu Yu Hakusho on this transformation? Imma guess that because he has both quincy and shinigami reiatsu , he'll be able to hurt Ywach, just like how Youske managed to damage Yomi because he too had two types of ki.

I was disappointed we did not see Ryuken in this chapter, what was the point of finally showing on his way last chapter, if he is still not here? Haswalth is such a tease, what about Yhwach's powers tell us.

In the end, Inoue contributed very little if anything at all. That is what I get from trusting Kubo, a female actually doing something, perish the thought. Say what you want about Hiro Mashima and his fan service, but the female characters actually do stuff.

Wow so Ichigo has mastered all his powers and use them all at once as one power, awesome. Too bad Bach is just going to no sell it next chapter.

That transformation looks pretty bad ass. I only wish he was savage like he was against Ulquiorra, but looks like he knows what's he doing. Too bad.

I kinda want more to see Uryuu's fight then this one, that blonde guy is wrecking him with just a sword.

lol well that is all well an good but how many more power ups is he going to do before the eventual victory.

or they could do the other way where he loses, but it doesn't matter because some god like power was used to reset everything.

or the ultimate troll by having the protagonist lose. it is all a forgone conclusion at this point.

Finally the intense moment after a bunch of boring chapters where basically nothing has happened. I as well cant see how he will beet him and to be honest I think this battle will last for at least 50 chapters, knowing Kubo's approach and ridiculous power-ups in the last moment. I am looking forward to see whats next but I dont have high hopes to be surprised to be honest.

That's how it is. Ichigo never had split shinigami or hollow powers. Old man Zangetsu was his Quincy power. Shirosaki was fusion of Shinigami father side and Hollow that Masaki absorbed (Whitey that Aizen created). It's more like Isshin gave his shinigami power to Masaki to save her rather than normal father to son inheritance.

In my theory Masaki had all 3 pieces in her. Quincy from Bach, Shinigami from Isshin and Hollow from Whitey. Urahara gave Isshin proper human body to let him have babies (no idea how that works but its Urahara). This would explain why Bach is so bend on calling himself Ichigo father (as if Isshin was not a factor) - him being Father of all Quincy including Masaki.

Quite impressive for Inoue to resist Bach attacks. Why haven't he killed her yet? Would that now throw Ichigo into some kind of frenzy?

Aizen is observing what is happening to Ichigo. He might come up with something cool for himself using Hougyoku and Quincy reiatsu that he got shot with.

I don't mind how Ichigo looks now. It's like he finally is true to himself, no longer pretending to be someone else, hiding behind mask. What else would his old mask be symbol of?

Shirosaki is the True Zangetsu - A hybrid of hollow and shinigami.
Old Man is the Quincy Powers.

Ichigo is the natural variation of what Aizen tried to do with hogyoku so obviously yeah (In fact this whole thinghere could almost be a parallel to Aizen messing with SS in fake karakura till hogyoku truly fused with him and made him truly immortal)

It could be that: Ichigo already has his quincy blood coming from his mom which was the zangetsu he thought his zanpakuto was all along. But that was ywach's quincy blood in him. The hollow he was fighting to control back then was his true Zanpakuto all along back then so he didnt get to reveal his true zanpakuto yet. That is why he have two blades now. The previous one which was the quincy's and his true one now which is the hollow he was surpressing. They merged once back then while fighting Aizen.

I see Bleach getting better at the moment that with those fights from the previous chapters. It feels like it will end soon.

I agree, but this one shows the "fusion" of his powers, guess that what Ichigo said in a lot of chapters ago "Zangetsu, I wont ever ask for you to lend me your strengh anymore, I wont tell you to not get in my way anymore, nor will I ask you to fight with me...From now on, I fight alone. Thank you Zangetsu. For you are me..." was a build up to this, while with the mask he is using the "hollows" power he didnt really accept it, I gues this shows that he now fully accepts and his aware of all his powers. My opinion tho :D

I think Yhwachs power is like Nicolas Cage in Next (crappy movie, interesting premise), where he can see into the future two minutes, but can see every possibility around every possible decision he can make.

And it branches, so for example if he goes two ways, he can see the possibilities for each of those two ways. Within his two minute limit of course.

Yhwach probably has this same ability but with a much longer time span, and with Mimihagi being immune to precognition.

Haschwalt probably had a short time limit or a limit to the possibilities he can see when using the Almighty.

So the terrifying thing is that Yhwach saw every possibility up to his goal, after Mimihagi was absorbed, and picked the best possibility. So everything is set and can't be stopped because he saw and picked what to do and it's happening as he saw it. That is the epitome of being fucked and the heroes have no idea.

I can see this being stopped if Aizen makes some kind of illusion where he tricked Yhwach into seeing his goal is accomplished, because he is probably so arrogant that he wouldn't think to use the the Almighty beyond that. This would open up a future that he didn't see.

Or maybe Mimihagi or some other being immune to precognition will appear. Or maybe Urahara will have some device. Or maybe Haschwalt will pull a Gin like betrayal. Or maybe something totally unexpected, but I doubt it.
