The Chosen One November 7

Show Spoiler for Bleach Chapter 381 ▼
This turned out to be a relatively uneventful chapter save for the semi-confirmation that Ichigo is the chosen one against Aizen. The problem is that it’s hard for me to accept the fact that an Ichigo who’s never seen Aizen’s shikai release is a better match-up against Aizen than, say, Yamamoto with his years of experience and theoretically absurd power levels (and if shounen series have taught me anything, it’s that absurd power levels can overcome any obstacle). Against Ichigo, all Aizen needs is to just do his shikai release to void any advantage, and even if that didn’t work, Aizen still has his bankai to fall back on. This isn’t even considering the fact either that Ichigo’s own power is still unstable. So I don’t think he’ll win them the battle because of this, and there’s probably some plot twist waiting. Regardless, I suspect that it might still take a little while to get to that point and that there might be a few chapters of Aizen and company kicking ass first before Ichigo and Unohana finally arrive.

At his current level, Aizen will still slap him around.

I lol’d at “Don’t look at his shikai”.
WhatAnAdvantage.

I may have to 2nd that because he is pretty beat up’

He stopped his bankai using his middle finger last time
But Ichigo will still win because he has to!

Unless Ichigo get another upgrade, which I believe he will have.
I’ll be surprised though, If for once Ichigo decided to use his head to make some strategy rather than just some uber upgrade.

what the dose azins sword do anyways?
dorama at 9:30 pm on November 7th, 2009
Ichigo is like a Saiyan, he gets stronger after each fight that he wins/loses..
Everyone’s underestimating Aizen, he took out Halibel with 2 hits without releasing so I’m pretty sure he can do the same to Ichigo. If not than go Bankai lol

@Dorama:
Yeah, this is going to be interesting when it all unfolds…i can’t wait now!

it sucks since it’s obvious we’ll se aizen’a bankai before the end of the manga. so for the shikai… ichigo will have to face it one way or another.

This stuff is just a justification of fact that Ichigo is going to fight Aizen. Not Yama-jii not Unohana or others. Even that there is only Tousen and Gin left.
Who at 10:30 pm on November 7th, 2009
So basically, what I’m getting from Unohana telling Ichigo that he’s the only one who hasn’t seen Aizen’s shikai yet is this:
“You’re effed in the A but I’m just here to give you false hope. Have fun. :DDDDDD”

Aizen shikai has 0% offense abilities, if you fall into his hypnosis he can easily be behind your back and stab you with his normal sword and you wouldnt notice it until is too late, so i wouldnt say that he defeat Harribel withou releasing his zanpaktuo, and hey we must all be happy, i mean we all knew that Ichigo and Aizen were going to fight sooner or later and Ichigo is not the chosen one because of his hinner powers that would soon awake and would beat anyone, but rather something understandable like he hasnt seen his shikai
Megas at 10:58 pm on November 7th, 2009
Forget shikai, Aizen still has a bankai & Ichigo has just begun to undergo another change in mask crap let alone be able release his hollow w/o being half-dead first. But of course that’s why Ichigo HAS to fight Aizen, so we can see that uber form again
Trying to kill Ichigo only leads to yur ass being tanned. Azien won’t be dumb enough to try to kill Ichigo…or will he

Aizen abilities is still a mystery to all of us we are not even sure what the guy is human or something else and Unohana is saying that Ichigo is the only person who stands a chance against Aizen
that may be true but Ichigo is in no shape to fight Aizen how is he going to avoid Aizen’s shikai when Aizen is one step ahead of him once u have made contact with A anyways Tousen and gin are still going to battle so that should be interesting at least cuz those guys are not going stay on the sidelines forever
Cherubium at 11:05 pm on November 7th, 2009
Sigh just kill me already.
Shounen fare all round.

Aizen power is still a mystery to all of us we are not even sure what the guy is human or something else? and Unohana is saying that Ichigo is the only person who stands a chance against Aizen
that may be true but Ichigo is in no shape to fight Aizen now how is he going to avoid Aizen’s shikai when Aizen is one step ahead of him plus Aizen has more experience . As soon as Ichigo sees Aizen its gameover for him, even if ichigo powers up, what prevents Aizen from doing same unless they include a plot twist but anyways Tousen and Gin are still going to battle so that should be interesting cuz those guys are not going stay on the sidelines forever

This is crazy. And because of Unohana’s statement people start thinking she is on Aizen’s side just to give Ichigo false courage.
