It was pretty obvious tbh in the manga when ichigo first meets him asks.for his name and its blacked out in the manga but the hollow was the only one constantly callingnhomself zangetsu
@@blkhauck Me and my brother realized that growing up reading manga together so for me seeing all diffrent tropes and patterns in these manga made it pretty easy to figure that out I also had forensic classes and murder solving classes so figuring this stuff out was too easy.
too think, there were some manga fans who gave Kubo's grief for his design of yhwach, cuz they thought his character designs were getting lazy :P they didn't take the time to think that the similarities between yhwach and zangetsu were quite intentional. Bleach fans weren't as big of theory crafters as one piece and naruto fans i guess lol if someone as good at character design as kubo draws something like that.... pay attention, because its for a reason ;) Kubo pulled a fast one because its been a LONG time chapter/episode wise since we saw Zangetsu, the most recent form was his tensa zangetsu form that taught him the final getsuga
Anime watchers in general were never really the brightest, mostly.. Information can be easily inferred but ppl literally watch and not put 2 and 2 together. The show had to purposely put it out on screen AND have the characters talk about it It's why they nvr understood the whole journey of Ichigo and their quoted Ichigo plot armor Ichigo had always been strong but never independent to release it on his own but he always emotionally struggled. That directly affected his power output and his spirits always had to harden his resolve or forcibly use their powers to save Ichigo if he really couldn't handle
I remember when i saw the Dual wielding blades for the first time in the manga. I freaked out. Like yes! The anime gave it so much love and brought it to life.
BTW there's a little interesting detail at the end. Ichigo can make his Zapakuto "disappears". His weapon is now in a "fluid form", he can change how it looks as he wishes. He can turn it back to the original or any forms he prefer now. He broke away from the rigid system that old man Zangetsu placed on him. Hence, his weapon is him. Insane subtle writing by Kubo.
I always interpreted Old Man Zangetsu’s wish to keep Ichigo safe and away from pain and suffering as his mother’s last thoughts and wishes as she protected Ichigo before dying. His Quincy power given to him by his mother being the embodiment of a mother’s most important wishes for her child, their safety and happiness in life. Zangetsu stepping aside can be seen as Masaki realizing and accepting that this path is the path that her son has chosen to walk down, and in turn choosing to respect and support her child’s choices and future, very poetic and bittersweet.
glad your hubby finally saw it. "amazing episode" is an understatement. this was PEAK 👌🏼 Ichigo really inherited his dad's fire powers BUT UPGRADED THEM. my man evaporated all the water. my man went Escanor's Cruel Sun mode (from Seven Deadly Sins). plus, i will remind you that Uryu and Sasuke share the same voice actor. for a future reference 👀
If you look at chapter 19 when they see each other for the first time, Zangetsu tries to say his name but Ichigo doesn't hear it but if you pay attention to the sound he makes, he doesn't seem to want to say "zangetsu" but he does Yūhabahha, same in the manga's panel
The most important chapter of bleach is here! From "The blade AND me" (first time we meet "zangetsu" and his name is crossed out, he meaning "I am Yhwach") to "The blade IS me". Ichigo's acceptance of himself, of his instinct and everything he rejected from White, Ichigo now not only knows who he is (thanks to learning the truth of his parents' past) but now Ichigo takes off a very heavy burden that was which changed him from being a smiling boy to this teenager who tries to hide everything he feels. Ichigo is not to blame for his mother's death, which began with his depression and the entire suicidal journey that followed, the search for power to protect those he loves, to protect himself (as Tensa Zangetsu once told him, he wanted to protect him) and live a quiet life, all of that is encompassed in this moment. Although to fulfill his goal of living in peace he must defeat Yhwach and finally avenge his mother, being able to close and heal that wound. For all this it is the most important chapter and Ichigo is very dear to me as a character❤️ I can't wait to see the reactions to Cour 2, now it's time for a lot of action! And Flexie, another mini trailer or PV came out yesterday at the jump festa, I don't know if you see the trailer because of the spoilers but I'll let you know if you want to see it!
Yup we can safely say, Ichigo's big sword shikai and black attire bankai before are fake cause it's not from Asauchi like other soul reapers. Actually there are a lot of foreshadow even in earliest arc like, Ichigo's bedsheet has quincy cross shape , rare constant release Shikai zanpakto , byakuya surprised when seeing Ichigo's bankai and commented that was not a bankai, during training in inner world, Ichigo searched for Old Man but White telling ichigo he is Zangetsu. Obviously Old man which is the quincy power, is biased and doesn't want Ichigo to be Soul reaper but when Ichigo in turmoil , the inner world will rain heavily, and he despised that, so he helped ichigo. If you want to see "What If Ichigo choose to be Quincy instead of Soul Reaper" , there is a mobile bleach game which release variant of Ichigo who wielding black bow and chaining arrow, wearing black longcoat like quincy. And all that game design approved by Kubo
I like this Shinagami his personality and the way he speaks in English. also he is my favorite character from Squad Zero he and the woman who specializes in sewing clothes and Uryū here we go back to the dilemma of Sasuke from Naruto or sorry no spoilers
Yasss been waiting for you guys to get to this episode and u didn't disappoint love love your reactions
I love how White was telling that he is Zangetsu from the beginning
It was pretty obvious tbh in the manga when ichigo first meets him asks.for his name and its blacked out in the manga but the hollow was the only one constantly callingnhomself zangetsu
@@anthonyrivers1218obvious now. No one during the time believed that he was telling the truth. Because why should we have any reason to believe him?
@@blkhauck Me and my brother realized that growing up reading manga together so for me seeing all diffrent tropes and patterns in these manga made it pretty easy to figure that out I also had forensic classes and murder solving classes so figuring this stuff out was too easy.
@@anthonyrivers1218no bragging
@@thecubeheadguy6747 I wasn't bragging just explaining why it's easy for me to figure stuff like that out and why I'm able to
It's INSANE how after hundreds of episodes the show managed to make that big of a reveal. Mind blowing.

Funny thing
It wasnt too far from us realizing why Ichigo looks like Kaien

And it was a true dual Zankupakuto
1 spirit each
Remember “white ichigo” back in the previous episode he kept saying that he is zangetsu he really wasn’t lying. That foreshadowing is crazy
BTW there's a little interesting detail at the end. Ichigo can make his Zapakuto "disappears". His weapon is now in a "fluid form", he can change how it looks as he wishes.

fun fact :
zangetsu and ywach both has literally the same voice actor
Well yea ofc xp
best anime, best villain, bests plot twists, lets go part 2
YESS!!

kensei has every right to bad mouth tosen after everything he did to him
The greatest plot in the world of anime, yes, this is Bleach, the king of anime

This episode is just a master piece, everything in the scene is pure art
Peak best episode in Bleach absolutely magical
This is still my favorite reveal in the entire story. Ever since I read the chapter in the manga back in 2013
The Blade Is Me
crazy how he thought he couldn't bad mouth tosen... Dude betrayed them 100years prior and cut them up.. Check yourself lieutenant!!
Loved this reveal
If you watch the first episode of bleach, his bedsheets have the Quincy cross that Uryu wears all the time
Zangetsu is part of Yhwach in it. I know the sound is similar It's a great shock
Me realizing that my instincts about the villain and zangetsu were right. Kinda. 😪
I like this Shinagami his personality and the way he speaks in English. also he is my favorite character from Squad Zero he and the woman who specializes in sewing clothes and Uryū here we go back to the dilemma of Sasuke from Naruto or sorry no spoilers
