Agreed! I always thought he was interesting from his appearances in the soul society arc and was hoping he would get more fights and screen time in general
Absolutely nowhere near enough gin. He was such an interesting character. Ya know, until he faded into oblivion for far too long, only to return for far too short a period of time
Yeah, realistically he’s uber strong for being able to disintegrate butterfly aizen, even if his regen tanked it. Remember the way Aizen reiatsu-crushes 99% of people weaker than him. Due to his Bankai easily working (even though it’s hax), Gin should be very close to base Aizen in power, though he’s still weaker.
For those who don't get it at this point ichigo is 2x as strong as he was in the soul society arc and still lost to Gin which means, Gin could honestly kill Byakuya witch no problem
I always considered top tier shinigami captain belong yo 1. Aizen 2. Shunsui 3. Gin 4. Tousen Mid tier would be 1. Kenpanchi (raw brute strength but little battle intelligent) 2.Byakuya 3. Mayuri 4. Shinji
Oh look it's a dragon ball watcher applying their stupid power scaling psuedoscience in one of the few shounen anime where they don't care about power levels.
@@MrGksarathyI think he realizes at the end of this fight that Ichigo ain’t ready, so he has to go to plan b and attempt to take Aizen out himself….with a high likelihood of dying in the process.
@@shalashaskashinkawa3985 no bruh, he would turned to a vasto lorde again and would beat him. his zanpakuto zangetsu is too overpowered, he always helps him before he dies.
If you want to understand Gin’s power and prowess. Think of his Zanpaktou as a gun that is top tier in short, mid to long range. Then add that his time being Aizen’s protege. Easy to see why he overpowered Ichigo.
@@bigbosspanda1976True. Also Gin can conceal his bankai which is what he did around Aizen. And as Aizen was so powerful that he had to control his spiritual pressure he let his guard down aeound Gin. This was gins moment ro assasinate Aizen but was too late as Aizen was too far gone with the hogyoku.
Gin so op to fight ichigo right after his zenkai boosts from Ulquiorra. This ichigo is improved from the same one that fought ulquiorra evenly. And Gin handled him
He could easily kill Ichigo, well, since the start of the battle for sure. But some people would argue that he could, when in fact, the moment his blade slash Ichigo's shoulder, it was his whole decision to simply spare him.
Are you honestly saying Gin is > Byakuya and Soi Fon lol. Delusion. Ichigo was holding back as well. He was scared of his new mask and was trying to get a handle on Gin. Ichigo's power output depends on his mentality, even Gin remarked that his Getsuga was off.
@@chrisppraefecti373 um yes gin is literally one of the top 2 or 3 prodigies in the entire series, even more so than Toshiro but he had what Toshiro lacked which was maturity. So yes he’s far above that byakuya and soi fon
It’s very understated, I don’t think people remember it since it’s not this huge epic fight where the scales are constantly tipped. Gin activates his Bankai and Ichigo lost, very quickly.
Super underrated character. I love Gin. He was very important in the save Rukia arc. Bleach is super cool to watch a second time because of the intricate details you can't figure out first time and a lot of foreshadowing.
Something about the wordless, savage barrage of slashes he puts on Ichigo is so interesting, no other character fights like that with so much elegance, or at all really.
Tell ya what, I’d love to see the team at KyoAnime get their hands on animating this fight, if it was half the quality of the MKDM season 2 fights we’d be in good hands!
Lmao are u for real?? If ichigo died then white wouldve taken over and beaten the absolute dogs*it out of gin ... Vasto lorde against ulquiorra was at his half power and still stomped ulquiorra.... And ichigo was mentally depressed in this fight which also affects his performance in battle ..
@@zarlistscarlon223 yup, a lot of people really underestimate Gin, he straight up kills aizen. Something no character does. Yes he comes back and what not but that doesn’t take away the fact that gin literally killed him
Hoping?he never became a vizard he was from beginning a soul reaper he's only motive was to kill aizen to revenge Matsumoto he never went for more power (that can be achieved by hollowfication)
Fighting a shinigami is not the same as fighting an espada. As evident multiple times throughout the soul society arc, shinigami was a prestigious class compared to espada (Aizen controlled the king of hueco mundo, Tosen cutting the arm of grimmjow). Shinigami seems more intelligent and civilised while the espada (based on Hollows) is more bestial in nature. Ichigo fighting with top Shinigami captains, namely Gin, Shunsui and Aizen, have to contend with good battle tactics and not just pure power displays exhibited by the Hollow based Espada.
When I first saw this fight, I was thinking, “Ok. Ichigo’s clearly no match for Aizen right now. Aizen has ascended to a level where he was able to take on 7 captain-level opponents and a lieutenant-level at once, and now he’s toying with 3 former captains (Kisuke, Yoruichi, and Isshin) who also were the only people in the World of the Living Aizen straight up warned the Espada not to fight. So, maybe Ichigo has a chance against Gin, right? After all, Gin is A LOT closer to Ichigo’s level, right?” But no, come to find out, there is a reason Gin kept out of the fight as long as he did. The fact that he could deflect Ichigo’s first hollow form getsuga tensho with one hand when even Ulqiorra in his base form clearly struggled slightly shows how insanely strong Gin is.
If his alive in tybw he could have fight Askin and killed same as grimjow offguard Gin is a best spy Gin, Urahara, Yoruichi, VS Askin Tousen, mayuri vs pernida
Gin was just preparing Ichigo for Aizen, he was never going to kill Ichigo. He wanted to see how powerfull Ichigo was, and after this fight, he knew he wasnt ready yet, so Gin knew he had to do it himself, but we all know how that ended lol.
so basically soifons zanpakuto but, faster, longer and without need for poision or a second hit. 1 hit and he just has to activate mini grenade abaility in the target for a win. yea thats broken espesually if it stacks.
Why my boy gotta be the only one who can’t come back? Yama back, Ukitaki back, the full bringers back, Toshiro, Aizen defeated but still around, the royal guard who all were killed and came right back. Ywhach killed by Ichibei twice even… While Ywhach is not technically around he came back from death. Crap, i forgot i started this diatribe to maybe having hope he could show up in the hell arc. He did actually kill innocent people. I know all that works different in Bleach and it would be mildly contrived but maybe he’s a tormented soul. I’d have him as some masked antagonist using a pseudonym since he woulda been there awhile before Yama and Ukitaki touched down. So they wouldn’t recognize him. Doubt it though. The one quote i heard attributed to Kubo is that he never understood Gin’s popularity. He meant that in relation to women liking him but i still think it was telling.
well it was really absurd...ichigos first captain was byakuya kuchiki and his 2nd encounter ichimaru gin xD how he didnt remember the captain who just slapped him without effort unlike byakuya xD
@@vihakurjategijaLol… Look, this is all in good fun but when soul reapers live for thousands of years senility is not an issue. There’s no proof the Spirit World even have these ailments. No cancer, no common cold, and no decline in mental or physical acuity… I’m aware of something happed to Ukitaki as a kid but it was reiatsu related…
Bleach is hella inconsistent in speeds. Lieutenants can react to light but would get blitzed by bankai ichigo and u can't expect gin to clap at speeds of a normal human
Gin still hands down my favourite character. Don’t think maths is his strong suit though; if 100 swords were 13km long then each sword would be 130 metres lol 🤔 his sword definitely aint 130 metres long retracted.
We did not get enough of Gin.
