This arc in general left so many questions unanswered, it's a good arc but you can tell it was rushed due to shueishas limit and the fact kubo was sick. OK I get it anyone else could've struck down yhwach I would try to counterargue but i have no energy and why is this even a debate just enjoy the manga/anime y'all can't chill without arguments jeez.
This was foreshadowed all the way in the soul society ark while Ichigo was training for his bankai. Old man zangetsu said that the only blade that can cut him is zangestu itself
Also at that time, the execs were pressuring Kubo and news were they are at odds and doesnt like each other. Kubo just wanted to get away. That's what I heard. That why most of the panels are super lazy with no backgrounds anymore compare to earlier chapters that were GOD mode drawings and panels.
It's nice because old man zangetsu (which we know is yhwach) told ichigo that zangetsu is the only sword that can strike him down when he was getting his bankai. We knew the ending all along.
Also, after absorbing the Soul King and essentially becoming the Soul King hence the usage of his corpse. Remember, when Yhwach told Ichigo his Quincy Blood cannot tolerate the Soul King's existence. 🤯
Zangetsu is not Yhwach and Yhwach is not Zangetsu. Their existence is completely unrelated to each other. The swordsmith, Oetsu Nimaiya, even explains this as he reforges Ichigo’s Zanpakuto. He stated it clearly that the old man Zangetsu we know is actually not the manifestation of Zangetsu itself, but is rather just pretending to be one. Old zangetsu is a quincy manifestation
Bruh he already stated that he can also rewrite the future in which he dies, so yeah, VERY OP. One of the most broken abilities in all of anime (if not the most broken)
The things that people doesnt really know is that Yhwach can alter his death even when he already die. The first Shinigami vs Quincy ended when Yamamoto was able to kill Yhwach because Almighty is sealed by Ichibe before the war happen. When Yhwach died, the Almighty seal gets broken and activated which makes him alter his death and reborn. The ending of Bleach also implying that Yhwach will reborn again in the future.
I feel bad for Ywach though. his father was the soul king for thousands of years ago ... TYBW is his 2nd failure to ease his father's suffering. the true evil are the 4 noble clan heads... what started the original sin of soul society...
@@tomoya1243 It's not the 2nd failure. His fathers and his suffering where ended in death. What Ywach wanted was mass genocide by destabilizing the worlds, that's why everyone wanted to stop him. Also Kubro wrote Ywach to be quite evil, he enjoys torturing people and kills all his 'children' who are literally sentient extensions of himself, as if they where nothing. He literally wanted to kill everyone everywhere and start over. I'd say that's pretty villain worthy. Thanos like.
I don't get it though. Yammamoto was a mere shinigami. Ywach should have easily regenerated from being cut in half since absorbing the soul king. Even pernida just a piece of the soul king had like infinite regeneration. So Ywachs regen factor is literally less than the hand of the soul king or aizen.
Idk it's kinda cap tho because he bodied Ichigo and Zangetsu multiple times. Quite coincidental that the one time he lost was when his power was only just returning to him.
@@kakashihatake1029 not quite, remember what juha, ie zangetsu told ichigo in his bankai training. "there is only one sword capable of defeating me" in the middle of all the swords and it's exactly the one that represent juha power itself. I understand a lot had to go right, the bigger contributor is hashwalt who wanted to defeat yuha and did it by convincing him that a certain vision of the future was a dream. then there is aizen who messed with the almight, just enough to allow uryu to land a shot and at last when all the zangetsu forms break, the true sword, the purest quincy power is the one who defeated him.
@mortvald Aizens shikai was already deactivated by the time Uryu arrived. He had the least contribution to defeating Yhwach BY FAR. Haschwalth is more double sided. There's no proof that he wanted to take down Yhwach when he showed the vision. He was likely trying to warn Yhwach but Yhwach misinterpreted due to ignorance or rather PLOT. There is the arguement that he intentionally showed him the vision as well tho. But I don't think so. Because it doesn't align with his actions regarding Uryu or anything else by that point in the story so I'm inclined to believe he was trying to warn Yhwach. As for the training with OMZ, you could say it's foreshadowing and it does fit nicely except I am pretty sure Kubo did not foreshadow that far ahead. He could have though for sure. And Ichigos sword probably was the only thing strong enough to kill Yhwach since it inherited Yhwachs own power so it checks out. Ultimately though it was all teamwork. That's the only way to beat Yhwach. By jumping him. And they did that. Ichigo and Ishida primarily. I believe Ishida is the biggest player in defeating Yhwach and I'm pretty sure Kubo will make that obvious in the anime. He messed up a lot with Ishidas role in the manga despite setting up the contrasts between him and Yhwach
For all this to make sense, it is necessary to highlight some points: Tsukishima's ability, Book of The End, can rewrite the past When the Bankai is broken, it CANNOT be restored, not even by Orihime Haschwalth predicted the future and showed it to the king Almithgy can only see the future and rewrite it That said, when the King breaks Ichigo's Bankai, Orihime was unable to restore it, not because the King wrote the future, but because Bankai cannot be restored. And that's where Tsukishima comes in. Tsukishima rewrites the past of Ichigo's Zanpakutou to a time when it was never broken, and I emphasize "never", because that means that Ichigo's Zanpakutou was restored to before Haschwalth broke it, that is, before the new Zangetsu were forged! This explains why Orihime was able to repair Ichigo's Zanpakutō, and why the appearance of the Zanpakutō remains the same, because the Zanpakutō we see after Tsukishima rewrites the past is Ichigo's old Shikai, from the Substitute Soul Reaper saga. We see that Ichigo's Bankai has the same shape as his old Shikai, and this is where the King is tricked. The King tries to break Ichigo's sword again, thinking it is Ichigo's Bankai, but he fails to rewrite the future, because the sword he is trying to break, according to the Book of The End, was never forged by Nimaya, he is trying to break a Bankai that does not exist! That is why the only thing that is crushed when the King tries to break Ichigo's Zanpakutō is the sheath, because it is the only thing left that Orihime was able to restore from his Bankai. So basically the Zangetsu we see at the end is the Shikai with the Bankai sheath. This fits perfectly according to Haschwalth's prediction, where the King has a dream where he is defeated by Ichigo's old Zangetsu, the Shikai. The King's problem was a "misinterpretation", where he always thought that this dream referred to Ichigo's new Bankai, (since it has the same appearance as the old Shikai) when in fact it referred to the Shikai itself that his vision of the future showed. In other words, the King's powers never failed. In the end, without Tsukishima, this plot would not be possible, because the King would not mistake Ichigo's Zangetsu. If there is any flaw in this, feel free to comment, it will be good to debate.
IIRC it was stated that what broke here was the sheath and that is what new Zangetsu looks like anyway. He still has access to his new shikai in the hell arc so unless he went and reforged Zangetsu again, you speculation is wrong
@@ahvin4764 yes, you could be wrong, in the new arc he uses the same Zangetsu from the end of TYBW. And I know it was the scabbard that broke, I literally said that. Read it again, defeating the King's schrift was never a matter of strength, or do you really think the King couldn't use his schrift to break Zangetsu again? If Ichigo could simply cut the King in half, he would have done it sooner. Ishida and the King himself made it obvious that the arrow didn't last long enough to stop the King's schrift, and even if it did, do you really think he would just be cut in half so easily? The King himself tried to break Zangetsu again as if his powers had already returned, and I say again, even if they hadn't, the King was never weak enough to die in a single blow. The only way to trick him was to make his own vision of the future a trap. Kubo has already stated that he can use his old or new shikai whenever he wants, nothing prevents the king from taking the bait in my 'speculation'. As I said, what I said makes sense within the rules established in the anime, that Bankais cannot be restored, and in the King's dream, he died SPECIFICALLY to the OLD Zangetsu, in its Shikai form. The King's dreams are quite accurate because they are visions of the future and not riddles. And still, nothing prevented him from reforging Zangetsu after the war if he wanted to. Even so, in the new arc he uses it exactly the way it was after he defeated the king.
Just a random thought, I think the reason he won here was because the past that was re-written was not Ichigo's sword being broken by Yhwach, but when it was broken by Haschwalt, which would also explain why he couldn't just break it again instantly like he did this time. He tried to break something that didn't technically exist in this timeline, and would also explain why it degrades into the sword that shouldn't exist, his original sword. Thanks for the video
The real reason is much more simple: Aizen was disguised as Ichigo. Yhwach cracked Aizen's sword while trying to break Ichigo's. But that has nothing to do with why the white of Ichigo's Bankai shattered in the final attack. It's because Yhwach had absorbed Ichigo's Hollow and Quincy powers, so the white of his Bankai lacked "substance". Ichigo cut him with a purely Shinigami Zanpakuto.
This is way better than fyemaj's manga animation, because in the manga animation cuts most of the scenes which makes us understand whats going on. On the other the hand this mmv contains every single pannel that was necessary to make us understand what is going on.
..when ichigo sliced the soul king in half, ywhach should have realized that's where he sealed his own fate ...he got sliced in half the same way, by the same person, as his father..he didn't realized what ever happens to the soul king happens to him
@@GalaxyImpact200Yhwach said that Ichigo's Quincy power hates Soul King and will automatically try to kill it. After absorbing Soul King, Yhwach becomes the new Soul King, and become the target of Ichigo Quincy power.
It seems to me, the still silver worked to a certain degree but saw Ichigo wouldn’t make it in time. Ichigo’s sheath was destroyed by Yuha but it’s the sword that he feared that killed him. The sword that “Old Man Zangetsu” said years go that could only defeat him. Aizen, Uryu, and Tsukishima with an assist, but this was an Ichigo thing.
The fact that old man zangetsu cared so much about ichigo that even after dissapering he helped ichigo by granting him his old shikai just to kill himself, so that ichigo survives😢
For those who wondering why Yhwach can't foresee the arrow: The Arrow was created from Silver of Stilness. Stillness meaning Users can cause anything that they target to become unchanging and doesn't progress or regress. Meaning they have no past or future. You cannot foresee that something have no past or future
I remember hating that damn arrow when i read the manga 6 years ago, It came out of nowhere lol(if i remember correctly,there is no mention of it at all)
that's not his true bankai, that's his sealed form, in fact it's called even in games "True Zangetsu" not True Bankai or True Shikai. Kubo confirmed that Ichigo still has both swords in Shikai and that his Bankai is the merged form. In Hell Arc Ichigo has exactly that same cleaver with bandages as soon as he turns into his shinigami form. So this is Zangetsu sealed form, the dual wield is the shikai and the merged version is the bankai.
True bankai was the finishing slice for yhwach, if ichigo handn't cut him then he would still be alive. So it's fair to say true bankai defeated him alongside the help of uryu and aizen
well Aizen carried the early fight and after ichigo killed yhwach, yhwach came back after rewriting his future, which is at this moment Uryu gave time for ichigo to kill yhwach even tho it wasnt enough cuz yhwach broke AGAIN ichigo's sword just to witness in the end the real Bankai of ichigo was the original Zangetsu.. so Aizen and Uryu carried but without ichigo they would have done no shits
without the silver arrow defeating ywach was impossible, he legit died and came back with his power, u go defeat alone a being capable of doing that lmfao, this is one of the anime moments where jumping the villain is necessary for the win
Well the true goat was Tsukishima because with his Book of the End, he changed the past of Ichigo so Zangetsu is no longer broken in the past and Aizen change the present, also Ywach can't see the future clearly because of Haschwalth tricked Ywach, making him believe that the future he saw was a dream and not reality. Basically Tsukuchima changed the past, Aizen manipulated the present and Haschwalth tricked Ywach in the future.
Wrong, Ywach is like an entity made of energy he will always resurge and after 999 years he will regain his full strength unless banished completely, in the future Kazui managed to do so.
@@brayanhavalja4620 most likely he absorbed it yeah. Because Yhwach had reiatsu in soul society that disappeared as well. I doubt Kazui could destroy reiatsu that he wasnt even in contact with
One thing I'm kinda curious about: if Muramasa from the Zanpakuto Unknown Tales filler arc managed to materialize Old Man Zangetsu and had him fight Yhwach, how much of a mind screw would it be? I mean, from Yhwach's perspective, his own younger self from a millennium ago seems intent on standing in his way now.
Soulmadness is the guy who synced the music. He single handedly made the bleach manga better than what the anime has given us so far (besides additional scenes) imo.
The things that people doesnt really know is that Yhwach can alter his death even when he already die. The first Shinigami vs Quincy ended when Yamamoto was able to kill Yhwach because Almighty is sealed by Ichibe before the war happen. When Yhwach died, the Almighty seal gets broken and activated which makes him alter his death and reborn. The ending of Bleach also implying that Yhwach will reborn again in the future.
for npc its only bankai for hundred years but for the main char it will always be “true ultimate absolute infinite bankai” even though he just 18 years old 😂
The anime is actually better than the manga for sure. We really didn’t get to see his new bankai do anything. I suspect they will add something. The anime quality of this arc is amazing
NGL, but I much preferred Ichigo having just Shinigami and Hollow powers without the Quincy nonsense, because he fought more like a Shinigami and Espada anyway.
Well we will be guessing theory until kubo tells us about real bankai powers in hell arc Theory- he may have the powers to change someone's fate or decide u all know that
"What you been so far Superior's Merging Fragment of your own total Power But now No one can Stop you from Fighting with your own full Power" those are real YWMH's Words before he give to Ichigo the True Zanpakuto and the Bankai Weapon "Zangetsu".
i really think Blippity blop, the snarfle snoozled over the flibber floo! Quackadoodle, bop! Wibble wobble zing-zang, the zoodlefritz danced on the snizzle stick, flarping and flumping all the way to the glonk farm. "Hoozit whozit," said the snozzwumper, "who’s been nibbling on my sploosh?" The glooble groobled, and the whoozle whizzled, as the flingle-flangle froodled its way into the wooble-nook, only to be greeted by the mighty Flooferdoof. "Not today, blorf," said the Flooferdoof, "I’m out of quibbles!" And so, the day sproinked away with a splonk and a yoodle!
That ending is so confusing I hope it will be clear in the anime because there is a lot of steps to defeat Yhwach...Aizen + Ichigo + Uryu + Jugram potentially
you're just too stupid to realize it, this is not an asspull, remember when zangetsu was training ichigo for bankai, the many swords foreshadowing the many forms ichigo would have and the one sword capable of defeating him being the one sword capable to defeat yhwach. in the end he died because of his own power. and hashwalt worked against him, concealing such a future as a mere dream.
@@sallehhamid7323 true but it might very been an accident. He tried to warn Yhwach and it backfired. Or he intentionally did it in which case he is th mvp
Tbf the ending was very rushed. I think alot of things towards the end of the TYBW was due to jump pressuring Tite Kubo or health issues but it was definitely rushed. At least with the anime and how close he’s working with them we get to see his full vision of the arc
@@kakashihatake1029It was intentional. When Haschwalth died, we see the button Bazz B gave him when they were kids in the hilt of his sword. Haschwalth kept his promise.
I never really understood this. He has his Almighty which gave him Omni-Precognition. How did he not see the arrow coming? I assume it has something to do with Uryu Antithesis and how it powered up after Yhwach awakens Almighty, but it wasnt really explained.
Aizens ilusions come from the eyes so it afected the all mighty since its a vision related power, and he also couldn't predict uryu cuz the arrow he fires is a stillness arrow thar has no past or future and even if he somehow did uryus sherift whould still make it happen
@@lozpan7276 The only thing I can think of is that the Ishida family is somehow immune to Yuha's full extend of power, then again you're right, we will never know.
@@ignusthemad3150 I think this has to do with something other than just shrifts. Plus Yuha's weakness is so ridiculous, he must have killed a thousand quincies this way so there must be just as much silver.
Remember the schrift of Uryuu: A, the Antithesis. Ywach already said before that Ishida has the power to even negate and surpass his own, is no wonder that the father of all Quincy didn't saw it coming
After reading the comments i can surely say that now Ichigo has become the MSD of anime world 😂 And for those who thinks Uryu's contribution matters, no it doesn't 😂
@@Kurosaki_Ichigostrawberry Just read the comments bro, when I was reading i found comments centered around " one last strike from tensa zangetsu has not defeated Yhwah" Same as "One six did not make India win the World Cup" Their situation align so such that when I realised this I just couldn't stop myself from typing " now Ichigo has become the MSD of anime world'
@@SonuSharma-yo4is first of it was 4 of 11 hell bastard could have taken 4 single 2 doubles hit a four. Or give the strike over to yuvi and he would have hit the six. I understood your comment but still didn't understand how that situation was like the above yeah bro I was missing a lot of context there. In the above fight in the original manga it came out of nowhere the lezt silver it's like final mei Australia vs Sri Lanka hota aur achnak se India final jayega. So your comparison doesn't fit this one as India really played the whole tournament really well and won the finals but here Ichigo won a very tough fight. India wasn't in this situation in 2011 world Cup.
Imma just pretend that because ywach was consuming aizen, his hogyoku had caused an interference which had lead him to not predict his powers being stopped. Sounds dumb I know, but the hogyoku is a little tiny fraction of the soul kings power after all. Could have numbed his senses slightly.
@@kakashihatake1029 You make a good point, which is why I said Imma just pretend as the theory seems pretty dumb. Better than not having a reason as to why he had lost though. I guess it depends upon the will of who wields the pieces of the soul king? The sternritters literally worshipped ywach and would give their lives for him, whereas aizen, even though he only had a tiny fraction of the sould kings power in comparison, hated the soul king and ywach. His goal was to reach the top in order to become the ruler, and get rid of all who would stand in his way.
I mean it could work, the thing about the hogyoku is regardless of what it's made of it has constant adaptation and it increases itself no matter what, it's an ever growing power source that also explains why aizen alone even when suppressed got stronger in muken, if the hypothetical is taken then that would mean it was outgrowing and out phasing the already large amount that Yhwach had which is still possible considering it did adapt to Dangai ichigo in minutes if urahara wasn't there he would've ascended to greater heights and that's also remembering that the state he was in before being hit by mugetsu is on par with Fullbringer Bankai ichigo (who is the same ichigo who fought yhwach during the first invasion)
@@JustEhStrawberry We could say that it was attempting to adapt to ywach's power and within that process, it had lead to ywach's senses to be numbed slightly within that fraction of time?
@RAAAHUM the best explanation is that Ishida is somewhat evasive of Yhwachs power. Because narratively Ishida is the "Antithesis" to Yhwach and this was subtly foreshadowed throughout the arc. Beginning with Ishida survivng the auswählen and then ofc the name of his schrift. The hogyoku is not narratively relevant to Yhwach and is vastly inferior to him by the end of the series because he had already absorbed every remaining part of the soul king. Ishida and Ichigo are like children of prophecy destined to take down Yhwach. And it seems like Kubo is going to delve into that much deeper when it comes to Ishida in cours 3 and 4.
I think Kubo really will get the last laugh with this anime because it’s a creators dream to be able to alter the end of a great creation to fit the best after already thinking it’s already over. He must have spent years thinking of all the alterations, and explanations.
Ain’t true zangetsu is his sikhai form not his bankai , I think when teach tried to destroy ichigo true bankai in future ichigo changes his zangetsu form to basic old form as ywach can’t thought of zangetsu old form and tried to break his true bankai in this timeline but it shattered and ichigo turn it up to old form which was plot by ichigo as true zangetsu blade can kill him. So old zangetsu is not ichigo true bankai .

Kubo has already stated that he can use his old or new shikai whenever he wants, nothing prevents the king from taking the bait in my 'speculation'. As I said, what I said makes sense within the rules established in the anime, that Bankais cannot be restored, and in the King's dream, he died SPECIFICALLY to the OLD Zangetsu, in its Shikai form. The King's dreams are quite accurate because they are visions of the future and not riddles. And still, nothing prevented him from reforging Zangetsu after the war if he wanted to. Even so, in the new arc he uses it exactly the way it was after he defeated the king.
@karielran my man, you're assuming too much for it to be reasonable, especially when bleach is full of inconsistencies.
dude this is wild, thanks for the in4mation
Edit was very sick 🔥💯👌
might have to take it to the doctor
1:20 The music paired so well with this panel, just straight chills
Just a random thought, I think the reason he won here was because the past that was re-written was not Ichigo's sword being broken by Yhwach, but when it was broken by Haschwalt, which would also explain why he couldn't just break it again instantly like he did this time. He tried to break something that didn't technically exist in this timeline, and would also explain why it degrades into the sword that shouldn't exist, his original sword.
Thanks for the video
thats actually a dope hypothesis on how ichigo obtains his original blade at the end of all of this.
Nah that's just how the sword looks without the white sheath around it.
The real reason is much more simple: Aizen was disguised as Ichigo. Yhwach cracked Aizen's sword while trying to break Ichigo's. But that has nothing to do with why the white of Ichigo's Bankai shattered in the final attack. It's because Yhwach had absorbed Ichigo's Hollow and Quincy powers, so the white of his Bankai lacked "substance". Ichigo cut him with a purely Shinigami Zanpakuto.
He tries to break tensa again after aizen out for the count
yeah. it makes sense.
This is way better than fyemaj's manga animation, because in the manga animation cuts most of the scenes which makes us understand whats going on. On the other the hand this mmv contains every single pannel that was necessary to make us understand what is going on.
Fricking soulmadness bro

..when ichigo sliced the soul king in half, ywhach should have realized that's where he sealed his own fate ...he got sliced in half the same way, by the same person, as his father..he didn't realized what ever happens to the soul king happens to him
Where did you get this info plz tell
@@GalaxyImpact200Yhwach said that Ichigo's Quincy power hates Soul King and will automatically try to kill it.
After absorbing Soul King, Yhwach becomes the new Soul King, and become the target of Ichigo Quincy power.
It seems to me, the still silver worked to a certain degree but saw Ichigo wouldn’t make it in time. Ichigo’s sheath was destroyed by Yuha but it’s the sword that he feared that killed him. The sword that “Old Man Zangetsu” said years go that could only defeat him. Aizen, Uryu, and Tsukishima with an assist, but this was an Ichigo thing.
Haschwalth also helped because he sabotaged the almighty by making yhwach think the future was a dream
Yeah, only old man zangetsu can defeat yhwach
You Just had to be there when SoulMadness dropped this legendary edit.
Edit: Back in 2016
The fact that old man zangetsu cared so much about ichigo that even after dissapering he helped ichigo by granting him his old shikai just to kill himself, so that ichigo survives😢
0:43 when you get rid of your depression for Good 😂.
Ryuken ishida is the true hero of this arc. Literally saved the world with a silver arrow forged from his wifes remains which he planned ahead.
0:01 IS THAT A JOJO REFERENCE!?!?
This truly is a bizzare experi
KOREGA REQUIEM ARROW DA!!
@@AnonymousPerson-gj8hl ZA WARDO OVER HEAVEN DA
It has always been.
Everything is
For those who wondering why Yhwach can't foresee the arrow:
The Arrow was created from Silver of Stilness.
Stillness meaning Users can cause anything that they target to become unchanging and doesn't progress or regress. Meaning they have no past or future.
You cannot foresee that something have no past or future
Or something related to mimihagi we can see it's marking on uryus hand vs senjumaru rematch
I remember hating that damn arrow when i read the manga 6 years ago,
It came out of nowhere lol(if i remember correctly,there is no mention of it at all)
@@dertanlee6510 guess anime is foreshadowing kubos best technique
Still silver (those who know 💀)
@@reuus bro I was literally thinking the same thing
The Most shocking thing is Ichigo killed the Soul King and his son in the same way😂
Technically he killed the old soul king and the new one
Ah yes his Bankia was his shekia all along! Brilliant!
Also his face 😂1:41
What's a Shekia and Bankia?
that's not his true bankai, that's his sealed form, in fact it's called even in games "True Zangetsu" not True Bankai or True Shikai. Kubo confirmed that Ichigo still has both swords in Shikai and that his Bankai is the merged form. In Hell Arc Ichigo has exactly that same cleaver with bandages as soon as he turns into his shinigami form. So this is Zangetsu sealed form, the dual wield is the shikai and the merged version is the bankai.
True bankai is not what defeated him, he got heavy carried by Uryu and bot carried by Aizen
True bankai was the finishing slice for yhwach, if ichigo handn't cut him then he would still be alive.
So it's fair to say true bankai defeated him alongside the help of uryu and aizen
well Aizen carried the early fight and after ichigo killed yhwach, yhwach came back after rewriting his future, which is at this moment Uryu gave time for ichigo to kill yhwach even tho it wasnt enough cuz yhwach broke AGAIN ichigo's sword just to witness in the end the real Bankai of ichigo was the original Zangetsu..
so Aizen and Uryu carried but without ichigo they would have done no shits
without the silver arrow defeating ywach was impossible, he legit died and came back with his power, u go defeat alone a being capable of doing that lmfao, this is one of the anime moments where jumping the villain is necessary for the win
Well the true goat was Tsukishima because with his Book of the End, he changed the past of Ichigo so Zangetsu is no longer broken in the past and Aizen change the present, also Ywach can't see the future clearly because of Haschwalth tricked Ywach, making him believe that the future he saw was a dream and not reality.
Basically Tsukuchima changed the past, Aizen manipulated the present and Haschwalth tricked Ywach in the future.
it is indeed what defeated him as you can see in the video/manga idk what you're yapping about
Yhwach himself said that the only blade that can cut him is Ichigo himself
This didn't defeat him. He re-wrote the future again to revive himself and Ichigo's son finished him off
Only few people caught this.
Wrong, Ywach is like an entity made of energy he will always resurge and after 999 years he will regain his full strength unless banished completely, in the future Kazui managed to do so.
@thedarkblitz did kurosakis son absorb or banish the last bit of energy?
@@Zuratergood question, considering the manga will continue he might have absorbed it
@@brayanhavalja4620 most likely he absorbed it yeah. Because Yhwach had reiatsu in soul society that disappeared as well. I doubt Kazui could destroy reiatsu that he wasnt even in contact with
I miss soul madness videos so much maan his videos were so dope
One thing I'm kinda curious about: if Muramasa from the Zanpakuto Unknown Tales filler arc managed to materialize Old Man Zangetsu and had him fight Yhwach, how much of a mind screw would it be?
I mean, from Yhwach's perspective, his own younger self from a millennium ago seems intent on standing in his way now.
I think he was aware of Zangetsu’s nature
W old zangetsu ❤
Why does old zangetsu even come back??
@@louis6185 Because the original Zangetsu sword was his true bankai form since day one
The music speaks final fantasy 15 vibes
Soulmadness is the guy who synced the music. He single handedly made the bleach manga better than what the anime has given us so far (besides additional scenes) imo.
@@kakashihatake1029 where I can find soul madness?
@@Proaz15his channel has been deleted as of my knowledge, only archives of his work exist such as this video I posted.
@@lozpan7276 He was special. He was the Man.
The music is from Attack on Titan Movie
The things that people doesnt really know is that Yhwach can alter his death even when he already die.
The first Shinigami vs Quincy ended when Yamamoto was able to kill Yhwach because Almighty is sealed by Ichibe before the war happen. When Yhwach died, the Almighty seal gets broken and activated which makes him alter his death and reborn.
The ending of Bleach also implying that Yhwach will reborn again in the future.
Amazing edit 🔥🔥 .
it's not actually ichigo that defeated him it's yuha bach himself the yuha bach inside zungetsu
for npc its only bankai for hundred years
but for the main char it will always be “true ultimate absolute infinite bankai” even though he just 18 years old 😂
I hope they manage to fix this final fight in the anime.
The anime is actually better than the manga for sure. We really didn’t get to see his new bankai do anything. I suspect they will add something. The anime quality of this arc is amazing
The chemistry between ichigo and uruyu is so magic.
NGL, but I much preferred Ichigo having just Shinigami and Hollow powers without the Quincy nonsense, because he fought more like a Shinigami and Espada anyway.
From the start kubo had already planned that, Ichigo would be part of the four races, a complete being
But i guess that's just preference
Getsuga Tenshou is a quincy power so there is that. absorbing and releasing reishi.
@@mortvald It's a Shiba family technique
Nah it would be dope if ichigo used sklaverei and could become more powerful the more he consumes hollows and souls
amazing video keep up the work
This was done by the legend soulmadness
Well we will be guessing theory until kubo tells us about real bankai powers in hell arc
Theory- he may have the powers to change someone's fate or decide u all know that
imagine being the son of god and getting cut by a kitchen knife
Ichigo is carried by Aizen and Uryu but both of them failed.. Zangetsu is the one who make it succeed 💪😎
I hope the anime makes it clear if Jugram betrayed him or not with that vision in the end
what we've gleaned, Aushwalen isn't exclusive to JuhaBach, and others learned that the still silver was the caster of the Aushwalen's Achilles heel.

WE NEED THIS OST IN COUR4
Btw if you think Jugo betrayed Yhwach this probably his final theme, at the end of Yhwach's life.
W old zangetsu🥶
i didn't understand why it crumbles then turns into the original shikai form..
I Finished This Manga A Long Time Ago But It Was Really Exciting To Watch This
Found it ty
Man I don't know what you're talking about, the whole final art, and every fights was Rush
the old man(zangetsu) once again help ichigo to defeat yhwach…
I hope they use this soundtrack for the final fight
Its aot soundtrack, they will cook even better
@@Rizzmon1405 True but it's the same composer. So Shirō Sagisu could still use this one as a sample.
why is everyone yapping about the fight and not appreciating how well this is edited and how the song fits
I honestly believe there is gonna be some changes to the final fight
That ending is so confusing I hope it will be clear in the anime because there is a lot of steps to defeat Yhwach...Aizen + Ichigo + Uryu + Jugram potentially
So ishida actually didn't Not betrayed Ichigo he pretends to be enemy side
Is yhwach forgot that his actually be able to rewrite the time even his death
Ychwach was killed by plot change my mind, I hope anime will actually give us a much prolonged fight with a much more sensible method to end blud
you're just too stupid to realize it, this is not an asspull, remember when zangetsu was training ichigo for bankai, the many swords foreshadowing the many forms ichigo would have and the one sword capable of defeating him being the one sword capable to defeat yhwach. in the end he died because of his own power. and hashwalt worked against him, concealing such a future as a mere dream.
@@mortvald hashwalt true mvp
@@sallehhamid7323 true but it might very been an accident. He tried to warn Yhwach and it backfired. Or he intentionally did it in which case he is th mvp
Tbf the ending was very rushed. I think alot of things towards the end of the TYBW was due to jump pressuring Tite Kubo or health issues but it was definitely rushed. At least with the anime and how close he’s working with them we get to see his full vision of the arc
@@kakashihatake1029It was intentional. When Haschwalth died, we see the button Bazz B gave him when they were kids in the hilt of his sword. Haschwalth kept his promise.
I never really understood this. He has his Almighty which gave him Omni-Precognition. How did he not see the arrow coming? I assume it has something to do with Uryu Antithesis and how it powered up after Yhwach awakens Almighty, but it wasnt really explained.
The power Almighty goes by how it’s being used, it’s like binoculars, meaning if Uryu isn’t in the field of vision, he won’t see him.
Why wasn't ywach able to see uryus arrow coming and why wasn't he able to know that aizen had him in that illusion?
Aizens ilusions come from the eyes so it afected the all mighty since its a vision related power, and he also couldn't predict uryu cuz the arrow he fires is a stillness arrow thar has no past or future and even if he somehow did uryus sherift whould still make it happen
If he could see the future why didn't he foresee that Ishida was gonna betray him? Why didn't he kill him right from the beginning?
Maybe his almighty has a limit or maybe haschwalth was tricking him, we will never know
@@lozpan7276 The only thing I can think of is that the Ishida family is somehow immune to Yuha's full extend of power, then again you're right, we will never know.
dude the antithesis makes uryu immune to the almighty, jugram as looking at ishida a can't see he curret version throght the almighty
@@ignusthemad3150 I think this has to do with something other than just shrifts. Plus Yuha's weakness is so ridiculous, he must have killed a thousand quincies this way so there must be just as much silver.
Remember the schrift of Uryuu: A, the Antithesis. Ywach already said before that Ishida has the power to even negate and surpass his own, is no wonder that the father of all Quincy didn't saw it coming
Is ichigo still a quincy after that battle?
Quincy starts from Yhwach. And HD died. Every Quincy might lose their power. Or he might return again since every Quincy has his blood
He’s a hybrid so yes
This video has more animation than blue lock s2.
After reading the comments i can surely say that now Ichigo has become the MSD of anime world 😂
And for those who thinks Uryu's contribution matters, no it doesn't 😂
wat is msd
Mahindra Singh Dhoni how
@@Kurosaki_Ichigostrawberry Just read the comments bro, when I was reading i found comments centered around " one last strike from tensa zangetsu has not defeated Yhwah"
Same as "One six did not make India win the World Cup"
Their situation align so such that when I realised this I just couldn't stop myself from typing " now Ichigo has become the MSD of anime world'
@@SonuSharma-yo4is first of it was 4 of 11 hell bastard could have taken 4 single 2 doubles hit a four. Or give the strike over to yuvi and he would have hit the six. I understood your comment but still didn't understand how that situation was like the above yeah bro I was missing a lot of context there. In the above fight in the original manga it came out of nowhere the lezt silver it's like final mei Australia vs Sri Lanka hota aur achnak se India final jayega. So your comparison doesn't fit this one as India really played the whole tournament really well and won the finals but here Ichigo won a very tough fight. India wasn't in this situation in 2011 world Cup.
@@SonuSharma-yo4is also if anyone was like Ichigo it was Yuvraj man he never gave up. He gave his best.
Yhwach shat his pants when Ichigo pulls out the TZ. Thankfully, he was wearing Almighty diapers
I think Uryu can counter the Almighty and that's why Yhwach didn't see the arrow coming...and hopefully it will be clear in the anime
great tq dont need to watching anime version anymore
So he was able to predict future but didn't predict that arrow? How's lore expleins that?
Brother, i got recommended this and i got spoiled, pls dont put this kind of title in yt vids man 😢
Nice battle 🔥
Imma just pretend that because ywach was consuming aizen, his hogyoku had caused an interference which had lead him to not predict his powers being stopped. Sounds dumb I know, but the hogyoku is a little tiny fraction of the soul kings power after all. Could have numbed his senses slightly.
Idk. Yhwach literally absorbed the torso, head, hands and heart of the soul king and they didnt harm him at all
@@kakashihatake1029 You make a good point, which is why I said Imma just pretend as the theory seems pretty dumb. Better than not having a reason as to why he had lost though.
I guess it depends upon the will of who wields the pieces of the soul king?
The sternritters literally worshipped ywach and would give their lives for him, whereas aizen, even though he only had a tiny fraction of the sould kings power in comparison, hated the soul king and ywach.
His goal was to reach the top in order to become the ruler, and get rid of all who would stand in his way.
I mean it could work, the thing about the hogyoku is regardless of what it's made of it has constant adaptation and it increases itself no matter what, it's an ever growing power source that also explains why aizen alone even when suppressed got stronger in muken, if the hypothetical is taken then that would mean it was outgrowing and out phasing the already large amount that Yhwach had which is still possible considering it did adapt to Dangai ichigo in minutes if urahara wasn't there he would've ascended to greater heights and that's also remembering that the state he was in before being hit by mugetsu is on par with Fullbringer Bankai ichigo (who is the same ichigo who fought yhwach during the first invasion)
@@JustEhStrawberry We could say that it was attempting to adapt to ywach's power and within that process, it had lead to ywach's senses to be numbed slightly within that fraction of time?
@RAAAHUM the best explanation is that Ishida is somewhat evasive of Yhwachs power. Because narratively Ishida is the "Antithesis" to Yhwach and this was subtly foreshadowed throughout the arc. Beginning with Ishida survivng the auswählen and then ofc the name of his schrift. The hogyoku is not narratively relevant to Yhwach and is vastly inferior to him by the end of the series because he had already absorbed every remaining part of the soul king. Ishida and Ichigo are like children of prophecy destined to take down Yhwach. And it seems like Kubo is going to delve into that much deeper when it comes to Ishida in cours 3 and 4.
He lost same fight with yamamoto and sasakibe 1000 years ago
Why al-mighty can't read Ishida attack?
2 seconds! It was 2 effin seconds.
If aizen and uryu didnt helped now Ichigo and others already died
Suppose not diyng this moment hmm cuz you don't know how much power of almighty
I still think Ichigo's bankai could've sealed the deal. Yhwach got rid of it for a reason. I call it Fate breaker. But that's just my own head canon
The chapter after this was weird
I think Kubo really will get the last laugh with this anime because it’s a creators dream to be able to alter the end of a great creation to fit the best after already thinking it’s already over. He must have spent years thinking of all the alterations, and explanations.
0:55 [Number One 🎶]

Ichigo: “Not this time.”
Aizen: “Hmph” 🙂↕️
Ain’t true zangetsu is his sikhai form not his bankai , I think when teach tried to destroy ichigo true bankai in future ichigo changes his zangetsu form to basic old form as ywach can’t thought of zangetsu old form and tried to break his true bankai in this timeline but it shattered and ichigo turn it up to old form which was plot by ichigo as true zangetsu blade can kill him. So old zangetsu is not ichigo true bankai .
