We dual-wielding now!
But i'm guessing that they most likely will combine eventually.

I was kind of hoping one would be white and the other would be black. Also that was shikai form right..

I think his shinigami powers will be fire-based but no clue about the quincy half. Quite interesting and we have seen him yield one sword for 500 chapters so this will be a refreshing change. Felt too short of a chapter, more details next time i hope!

Yay, it's like Kubo tried to cover up deus ex machina victories of Ichigo, too bad he forgot about one, when Ichi defeated Grimjow.
Also, not impressed by the look of these new swords.

Ichigo didn't part the sea, he just Toyotomi Hideyoshi'd the sea, casually. He's Dual-wielding Shirosaki and Old man now...! Perfect!

Well what do you know, I WAS right once again.

Oh yeah, congratulations(though with Masaki's death it was rather nice catch than being right or wrong). It's just you spout so much nonsense aside from what could've been an interesting ideas. For example:
Masaki's death
- correct with the Isshin's words about the date of her death
- wrong about her being uber strong(which was somewhat "confirmed" to you)
- wrong(God, Kubo may still pull it, but it would be Edo-Tensei level bad) about Masaki being alive
So yeah, sorry for not taking your posts seriously. You seem to be right this time, but Kubo may come up with his own reasoning behind it all, and nobody will remember about your wrong one.

Kubo you fabulous bastard, you...

Lol :D.

Why does it have to always look cool? We had seen the "cool" looking Bankai disgusting amount of times until fb powerup which made it even MORE cool looking

The second sword is a serrated knife.

Actually if there are two swords i wonder if he can have 2 types of bankai.

I doubt it.
Even though the shape are different, I assume they function the same as the twin zanpakutou of the two captains.

Oh snap! It just occurs to me that Renji got his sword reforged too right? I'd love to see how that turns out.

So many things to see, Zaraki's shikai, Ichigo's fighting, and Ishida as well, i wonder how powered up he truly is according to Kirge Opie (sp?)

Ehh, could have gone without another dual wielding protagonist.

Was hoping to see some dialog between Ichigo and his hollow since he now knows that a Hollow was his Zanpakuto this whole time.

admittedly it's going slow. but it's awesome. this chapter was all about ichigo realizing and finally accepting the fact that his zanpakuto is the combination of the 'old man zangetsu' and his inner hollow. i wasn't surprised that ichigo ended up with dual zanpakuto. after all ichigo is special and it is natural that he is capable and worthy of wielding them. the big question is will he need to master shikai and bankai again? can't wait.

so you would rather have him wielding some gay ass swords? Why?

I stick to my opinion that the sword from last chapter was way better.
these swords look like a gay knock off of his shikai.

I think kubo could of done a better job with his sword/s
still ill try to give them a chance. other then that this chapter was great and all the other chapters have been awesome too. this final arc is amazing, and i cant way to see what happens next.

Lol@ butcher knife and maybe a ranged weapon looking gay compared to those faggy wristbands that other Bankai gave us, nty these are way better.
The bankai was shit anyway, haschwalt casually cut it in half, imagine what Juha Bach could have done.

I got a question, is Juha bach "aware" of his alter ego. I mean are Zangetsu's memories part of Juha's now or sth? It would be nice if things are in fact that complex between them

"juha bach" inside ichigo is simply the quincy power of Ichigo, every quincy has the blood of Juha Bach

Even if he was aware of it there are crapload of quincies where Bach is dont know if he would bother to keep count
There are probably crapload of quincies seeing as they have been building up for past 1000 years since the extermination also there are many dimensions in Bleach so there can be tens of thousands of quincies somewhere with everyone having the blood of Juha Bach

So now he has both a sword from his Shinigami and Quincy powers and both of the swords are infused with his hollow powers, hence why there's a hole in those swords. I wouldn't be surprised if his swords could turn into Bows and Arrows though. It still bugs me though as to why Ichigo's swords looks unfinished, even the older version of Zangetsu looked unfinished.

I was a bit confused because even though they showed him wielding the 2 swords, it also looked like the swords are a part of him now... I don't know what the page is (b/c I have an app where I read the manga) but 2 pages before he says the blade is me it shows the zanpakto's disappearing in his hands... so is it gonna be like they only come out when he's ready to battle or will he physically have the 2swords for fighting ... maybe the disappearing zanpakto's are not the case but if it is it would be interesting to see how that goes down...

Hirudora said:
Does it mean that Ichigo abandoned his real Zangetsu that was seen in the previous chapter?


There's no technically "real" Zangetsu.

Shirosaki IS Zangetsu, his power, but BahGetsu is ALSO IChigo's power and both of them are part of Ichigo himself, both of them are Ichigo. So Ichigo decides what Zangetsu is and thus he decided to name his power as a whole Zangetsu, unifying them all into whole, himself.

So this really means his Shikai is dual...excited for his Bankai! Wait, what about his hollow form?

There's no "hollow form" anymore. Has not been since Dangai training and won't be. The manga already explained it.

Omg I've got it!
If you look closely, Ichigo's holding the larger sword really far up the hilt. The bit he isn't holding looks so much like a Quincy bow (the middle part where the arrows are fired from). Then, he'll connect the short one to the bottom, therefore he's able to hold the whole thing as a big bow

"JuhaGetsu" is just representation of Ichigo's heritage as a quincy as well as most likely some form of genetic memory. It has nothing to do with Bach except for the fact that BAch started the family line thousand years ago.

the second sword is a stylized version of bowie knife. A traditional german WWII close combat weapon.

It's not Juha Bach. It's Ichigo's representation of Quincy powers. He looks like Juha Bach cause he Bach is source of all Quincy powers.

@k11chi, Fai
So, essentially Juha is a stranger to Ichigo. Pity, Would have been nice for the main villain and the hero to share such a complicated bond.

Ichigo's two zanpakuto's don't look as cool anymore. He kind of looks like some butcher in this chapter, especially with his torn sleeves. I'm hoping for a more detailed version of his Zangetsus in the next chapter.
