Kenpachi did say in his flashback that he named Yachiru (his lieutenant/pink-haired little girl) after the person he respected most. Now we know who that is and why a lot of soul reapers are so afraid of Unohana. Behind that smile of hers lies a demon 😂
He said that nearly 400 chapters prior to the Unohana reveal. Just brilliant writing from Kubo
Bro Unohana got no soul behind those cold dead eyes 😭😐💀
Kubo is on another level tbh
@@linkszxx Very slept on foreshadowing.
@chrisver7686 facts. People still say there isn't any foreshadowing in the series, while the problem lies in most readers because Kubo isn't just spoon feeding us like most mangakas actually do
The Unohana reveal has been hinted at since VERY early on in the series.
1. Everyone, even Captains powerful as Shunsui and Ukitake are shown to be afraid of her.
2. Her fake name, Retsu, means "violent" or fierce", hinting at her true nature.
3. In the SS arc, she is the first Captain to notice something is off about Aizen's death (even while under complete hypnosis. When she arrives in the Underground Meeting assembly area after Aizen waxes Hitugaya, he acknowledges that he thought she would be showing up soon.
4. If you recall Kenpachi's backstory flashback from the SS arc, he tells Yachiru that he named her after the one person he admires and respects. The First Kenpachi, Unohana Yachiru is that person.
5. Even from the first databooks, her total combat ability score was 540/600, which is second only to Aizen and Yamamoto who both have a total of 560/600. Her special ability was also listed as kenjutsu, NOT healing.
People still saying it came outta nowhere smh.
@@sicawhoremanchester6821 word for word bar for bar
Also the double meaning of Minazuki
databooks can be misleading sometimes tho. Yamamoto's combat ability shouldnt be 560/600 but close to closer to 600 as he masters every form of combat and is the strongest ever.
Spoilers...
I'd say 600 would be Ywach post absorbing the Soul King. So... 580 would be Ywach before that.
“I named you Yachiru, in memory of the only person I ever admired.” - Kenpachi Zaraki
also Yachiru later "Adios!"
Bruh I'm legit terrified for the insanity of the next episode, and I'm a manga reader, if studio pierrot go all out for episode 10, it's gonna be another episode of the year 😭
Fr tho
Better be good
It better because the animation wasn’t amazing for this first half. Wanted to see some cool Sakuga considering it was a straight up sword battle. Shame.
@@dantheman5607 bro💀 stop lying to yourself...
@@dantheman5607 you're smoking something if you think what we saw didn't have cool sakuga, there just wasn't much extended choreography, it pretty much just straight up adapted Kubo's choreography in the chapters
Kenpachi is a title that's is given to the most bloodthirsty captain. The 11th squad captain spot is reserved for the Kenpachi, meaning to become the current Kenpachi you have to kill the old one. Zanjutsu is swordsmanship, the art of the sword. Kenpachi doesn't know swordsmanship, they feared he'd be too strong with it so they stopped Yamamoto from teaching him. Crazy to think Kenny is so strong despite just swinging a sword around like a stick. That's what Shunsui decides to teach him through Unohana, the original Kenpachi
Yep and the tradition was likely established after she retired to squad 4 so everyone after that has been killing the previous Kenpachi to take the title. But I assume Yamamoto can still appoint anyone as Kenpachi if they fall in battle, or transfer out etc.
@@QuantumFishFTW well there is one other kenpachi alive other than her but he is locked in the muken.
That's why I started calling him Zaraki...
@Decepticon Justice Division the 9th was better.
@@wilmaso then was killed by kiganjo.
Unohana is so badass. Now a lot of things make sense. Previously in his flashback, Zaraki said he named his lieutenant Yachiru after the one person he admired. That's Unohana. Also, Unohana really did stab Kenpachi and he passed out for a bit. You can still see his blood on her face from the stab. She just chill about it like nothing happened. lol
I love her. Badass & scary! And I'm not sure, but I think Kenpachi's the 11th Kenpachi and in past, all predecessor were killed by successors, except Unohana.
What he died ?? With no sword but wake up with a sword?? Makes no sense
@@pitoseavy4523 he got heal that’s why he woke up with a sword
@@babyblue1691 No spoil please they are reading comments, remove it
@@babyblue1691 he dropped his sword tho & if he died she would have said that in her mind not “you can’t die” & “the verge of death “ it just don’t make sense when her healing skills can’t even heal byakuya but can bring back dead
@@pitoseavy4523 she healed him and she mentions that whenever he's about to die, he often blacks out and goes back to how he was as a child power wise. believe or not, Zaraki was actually stronger as a child but he put limits on himself subconsciously so that he could enjoy fighting more if he was weaker.
Even Aizen didn't want that smoke. He always avoided her, when he first revealed himself, he dipped and when he invaded "Fake Karakura" he made sure she was in Hueco Mundo first.
I feel bad for Unohana, she spent hundreds of years reinventing herself, healing countless people, becoming very respected and appreciated for not being a killing machine but yet she has to return to being the demon. You can see with her reaction to Tenjiro's comment and her face when she's in Central 46 that she isn't thrilled about this.
Aizen levels above her he revealed himself in front her and she didn’t attack I think he respect her put not concerned about her power
@@hesow123 unohana held herself back all that time. She did NOT want to become/go back to her old self. Had she been able to, she possibly would have been a big threat to aizen pre- hogyouku
He didn't. He never even saw her a a threat. He only saw Yamamoto as a threat. Aizen would body her.
@@RaziEx she wasn't stronger then him. Aizen was levels above her.
It's sort of true. There was no way she could have stopped Aizen, but she would have been a pain in the ass to deal with. In a way, that's showing respect. "I could take her out, but it would actually be work, so I'll just trap her somewhere".
It's stated that you can only become a Kenapchi if you finish off the previous one. My own theory is that because she retired and became the leader of Squad 4 the title could be passed on because she wasn't a Kenapchi and only ONE Kenapchi can be around.
Sorry sir you are wrong lol
@@TronBKNY not really
@@TronBKNY How? Because I don't remember them ever explaining it, so is not clarified at all. The only thing what was 100% stated was that you need take out the previous Kenapchi to be the new one and that ONLY one can exist.
@@TronBKNYyou say that but u aren’t even saying why. So please be quiet
@@Official_RetroMania go back and watch the Kenpachi vs tosen fight in the SS arc. They explain how to become Kenpachi there
Unohana Yashiru vs Zaraki Kenpachi...the first Kenpachi vs the current one...one of the 5 big moments I wanted to see so badly animated in that arc and it doesn't disappoint ! The battle of the Kenpachi's...what is gonna come out of this room will be an unstoppable killing machine forged by battle of pure instincts...it's savage and glorious at the same time ! Can't wait for episode 10 !!!
Seeing two kenpachis fight is so intense, finally saw the Unohana scene
I'm waiting for her to use her bankai
While some may have felt like this plot twist seemingly came out of nowhere, Conversely throughout the series, Unohana was foreshadowed a few times despite her gentle personality and maternal figure of soul society.
1. Her braided hairstyle that she’s always wore at the front of her chest was to cover her scar.
2. She was the only one who saw through Aizen’s hypnosis and that he gave credit to for doing so back in soul society, fleeing from her knowing that if he fought her it would’ve been trouble, a death match for him.
3. Back in Hueco Mundo, the clean up squad of hollow soldiers known as the Exequias fled from her instead of putting up a fight knowing they didn’t stand a chance.
4. Shunsui and Ukitake as senior captains were shown being scared of/creeped out by her in the turn back the pendulum/Vizard flashback arc, as well as others being nervously afraid when she makes an eerie serious smile, which was only meant to be seen as a gag initially.
5. She the 2nd oldest after Yama and last remaining member of the OG 13 court guard squads just now revealed.
Needless to say it was a plot twist and a half that was subtly built up as a lady of the sword as a great character that just happens to be a lady: A Blood Prime Death Goddess.
Fun Fact: Unohana is the only female character in this series with no fan service, that is beneath her. An Epitome of a woman above men, the kind that makes the best out of them, just like Krista Sudmalis who invented the GigaChad.
i mean the beach filler kind of gave her some fan service action while still respecting the scar covering lmao
dude none of that is foreshadowing and some of those you don't know till now. its only after you know you puzzle this. it wasn't foreshadowing
@@mastixencounter
The first 4 was explicitly foreshadowed before now.
@@truthcrusader360 no, you wouldn't know that till this episode. Ya like you sure knew her breaded hair meant something back then. and none of that foreshadows anything about her specifically being a kenpachi. This is just a comment that you copied and pasted
@@mastixencounter
I don’t copy paste anything if it’s not from myself.
If you look back in the old series, all that mysterious intimidating vibe from Unohana that others getting from her was a crazy foreshadowing of who she really was.
Kyoraku Shunsui as head captain...perfect choice ! At that point in time he is both the wisest and perhaps one of the most powerful captain in the Gotei 13...The warrior philosopher. His only weakness was the drive to do the job really...now it's different !!
the only choice, since ukitake isnt in good condition.
He only got it as ukitake is ill.
He is not. Unohana flattens him, and so does unlocked Kenny after.
@@SilenceRed He said one of the strongest.. Yes Kenny is strong but isn't head captain material same with Uno
@@stark8363 yep Shunsui is suited for the role because he is also one of the oldest captains bedsides ukitake, both are 1000+ yrs old
Zaraki admired Unohana yachiru so much that he named his little child Yachiru
Child?
@@esnips123123 pink haired kid that calls him kenny
I won't spoil you but she's something else than a kid
Next episode is when you know how terrifying Unohana actually is. The sole reason why she learnt healing techniques is the reason why everyone in the squads except Yamamoto (and to a certain extent, Zaraki) is afraid of her.
Now we know why aizen was duckin unohana back in SS
he didn't duck shit lol she was under KS she cant do shit even herself said to ichigo u the only one who can fight aizen
@@grmmj000w you don’t know what your talking about
@@grmmj000w mad that she slams Aizen... lol
@AMir B she was the first to know something was off. She literally went to central 46 all this while being under KS
@@wilmaso she instantly knew everyone except ichigo was a low diff for Aizen bcuz of KS too but nobody remembers that
The direction, the photography, the ilumination... Bleach is artisticallly on another level, it may not have the best technical animation, even tho it delivers in the important fights, but its art its just outstanding and unrivaled
The greatest reaction to this scene. Everyone else was surprised and just went to the next scene. Smh 🤦♂️
I remember it happening in the manga. It took weeks to shake this reveal off. Hypeness 😂
Unohana being a Kenpachi makes sense when you think about it: if she can put people back together this well, she must be good at taking them apart.
Excellent point!
Have y’all noticed how pple in series been In awkward situations with Unohana especially the 11th Division? 😂
Man Unohana's face when she stared at Zaraki froze my blood yo 🥶 one of the hardest manga panels I've ever seen
The reveal of Unohana made all the times that other squads were scared into behaving by her make total sense.
Kenpachi is basically a titled held by the Captain of the 11th Squad. Zaraki got it by killing the former Kenpachi iirc. It's one of the two ways that someone can become a Captain.
In Unohana's case, I think she stepped away willingly to become a healer and the title was passed to the next person who was strong enough to be considered it, which started the tradition.
Watching anime and reading manga is always so exhilarating
Unohana was the first Kenpachi and then she left to be the captain of Squad 4. Other people have taken the mantle of Kenpachi and the NORM is that you can only be a Kenpachi after defeating the previous one.
Zaraki is the 11th Kenpachi after killing the previous one. So Unohana is the only one so far that just simply walked away from the title.
Except there's one more kenpachi whos still alive... He's at the Mugen
@@igneelralte Ngl he's my favorite Kenpachi.
@@igneelralteyeah but kenpachi beat him so he took the title back
@@igneelralte yeah but he had the title stripped away cause he's a real criminal.
@@kittylitty01 Kenpachi never beat Soya. Soya literally soloed the entire 13 Court Guard Squads. There is a big misconception of what you just stated as well. Kenpachi actually never beat Soya.
The history of the Kenpachis is absolutely crazy amazing of them, I've been looking through of them and both very badass and insane to see how they turn out to be strongest soul reaper from generations especially yachiru scary good. I'm glad they animated the fight nicely so far tbh can't wait until next week to see the end. Btw I also know what happens from manga read back then of gods how long I can remember, but really don't like to spoil for you two very much to see your reaction so keep up the work you two.👍
I don’t know if anyone notice but you could see that Kenpachi actually got cut in the throat and Yachiru just healed before he died which making him stronger and you can tell because the blood is still there on her face.
My blood boiling for the intense fight between two kenpachis.
When he said “she got a big spoon as a weapon” I dead ass was expecting something else😂😂
Yeah, she does have more than one big Sp(o)(o)n 😂
It’s funny, as soon as I was thinking, damn I love their relationship. Mel said how she love it.
As mentioned in the video, Unohana is the first one to receive the title Kenpachi, and also the very first captain of the 11th Squad. She moved to squad 4 (for some unknown reason, yet), so squad 11 had to have a new captain. Zaraki is the 11th captain because he killed the 10th captain. Anyone who becomes the captain of 11th Squad holds the 'Kenpachi' title by tradition.
unohana had relinquished her title as kenpachi and became a pacifist which is why other kenpachi were able to exist at the same time as her. but now that she reclaimed the title one of them has to die because there can only be 1 kenpachi
To be considered a kenpachi you have to kill the previous kenpachi. Remember, thats how Zeraki got his kenpachi title, when he killed the kenpachi before him (prev 11th captain)
17:30
Because it's the only way for Zaraki to get stronger. He can't unlock his shika/bankai without overcoming his self impose seal on himself and the only way to do that is for Zaraki to willingly kill and surpass Unohana. That's how I think Shunsui saw this confrontation between the two Kenpachis. If Zaraki gets killed by Unohana, then he simply wasn't up to the task. No matter the results, only one Kenpachi is leaving that Muken.
They've already revealed all the names of the original Gotei 13 captains btw as well as their squads.
Been waiting for this😈
"Does Unohana have a Bankai?"
💧💧'SWEATS PROFUSELY'💧💧 😬🤐😶
Unohana is nicknamed the blood of death, because of that he has the title Kenpachi, the title of the strongest assassin. each generation only has to have one Kepanchi, therefore they must fight, to determine who is the true owner of the Kenpachi title. and there is something more interesting, Unohana's real name is Unohana Yachiru... Yachiru's name is similar to the name of his Vize captain Zaraki-Kenpachi😁
If y’all look back when kubo introduced us to the og 13 unohana was the first one to kill someone in the flashback and that look of malice showed how blood thirsty she was lol. Glad y’all catching up 💯 kubo really is killing it with this anime. I Waited so long for kenpachi and unohana fight to be animated finally get to see it!
Bleach tybw Epsiode 6 and 7: we are candidates for episode of the year
Episode 10(if done right 🙏) - allow me to introduce myself
Sorry but episode of the year was One Piece 1015
@@Sims64340 L
@@Sims64340 naa b, one piece is a different set of episodes, not comparable to the episodes the fire season that bleach is putting out.
@@Sims64340 not even close. Bleach TYBW has been amazingly animated since episode 1. But episode 6 and 7 were a lot better in quality than 1015
@@ProfIdiotKuro I'm pretty sure you guys didn't watch EP1015 of OP or you don't watch OP in general, because it sure as hell was. It was the best episode of One Piece yet. Emotion, direction, animation, pacing, the build up of years & years of OP story... Literally everything was perfect. lol
And I'm saying that as someone who f-ing loves Bleach to death & thinks EP6 and 7 were masterpieces.
Oh man next episode gonna go crazy guys. Kenpachi vs Kenpachi🔥🔥🔥🔥
zaraki vs unohana is finally here! we never expected to be able to watch it in glorious animation - but here we are!
You guts are 100% right she is training him to become the next kenpachi.
Seeing that Unohana face finally get animated and it did not disappoint! One more week til The Battle and it’s gonna be crazy
last episode also skipped over that the healing hotspring yoruichi brought ichigo to in the soul society arc was trenjiro's creation
There's a hint on what happened when zaraki thought he was dying .... Unohana still has the blood in her face when she stabbed his throat ... Yet the stab wound wasn't there anymore ... "You will not die" Unohanna already knows what's gonna happen here she's already dedicated the moment the battle started
Unohana is a savage I love her badass energy, she was an OG after all. Gonna be sad if either one of them dies.
2 Other Kenpachi's can be found in The Novel Bleach "SAFWY" if anyone is interested. Just note the other 2 are even wilder💀
Oh Etsu Nimaiya, creator of Zanpakuto is the Divine General of the West. His sword sheathed is more powerful than most captain level bankai.
Just something to notice. when she stabs him in the neck blood gets on her face. and when kenpachi snaps back into it she still has the blood from the fatal stab on her face
I can see them animating the novel about the other two Kenpachis in the future. Stuff is heat
Finally, we be waited so long just for this part of the arc . 😂
You guys are forgetting... Unohana is also a healer, she's the 1st kenpachi for a reason he wants to keep her enemies heal so that she can enjoy the fight and made them suffer. That's why when she cut his throat, He's already healed and zaraki forgets and doesn't remember it.
This is a spoiler
Great episode, next one is going to be one of the best!
i love watching the reaction of people who doesnt read the manga or knowing Unohana's past...its so satisfying seeing them gasping in shock 🤣
Lmfaooo it's Kenpachi having a super sayin buffs 😂😂
Unohana is insanly badass... and her voice.. just few details changed but wow. The anime staff worked with perfection.
Kenpachi (剣八, Sword-Eight) is the title that is only given to the strongest Shinigami. It is an ironclad rule that there can be only one Kenpachi per generation, meaning that the predecessor must die for the killer to succeed the title. To inherit this title, the candidate must kill the current Kenpachi in battle.
It's not an iron clad rule.
Assume a kenpachi dies in battle to a hollow. Does the hollow become the new kenpachi? Does the lineage of Kenpachi stop? No one else can be kenpachi after that?
Wouldnt that title be given to Yamamoto or Ichibei then?
@HoloTWWOriginal How can a Hollow become the next Kenpachi when it's literally stated that this title is for the strongest "SHINIGAMI" lmao.
But yeah, it's not an iron clad rule to kill the previous Kenpachi
@estebanbr7596 No!! The whole Kenpachi title was given "after." Yamamoto created the 13 court guards, and ge became the head captain Unohana founded the 11th division who got the spot of "Kenpachi."
The rule is/was always since the founding of that title that "the person that beats/kills the Kenpachi takes over the title which means the strongest "Shinigami."
While it's true that Yamamoto is/was the strongest "Shinigami," he still needs to challenge and beat the holder of the title Kenpachi to get it. So
1. I don't think Yamamoto was interested in that title after he founded the Gotei , so he never challenged Unohana, the previous holder of that title.
2. He was already the headcaptain, and the 11th division was established for "Kenpachi"
About Ichibei, it's for one the same, which is
1. True stronger than both (Yamaji, Unohana), but he still has to challenge the holder of that title. If he doesn't want to, then Unohana holds that title still
2. He is a Royal guard he doesn't have any business with the Gotei, or better with the rules of becoming Kenpachi, and even if he wanted that title he still has to stay at the royal palace so he can't take over that spot, name, and 11th divion.
And the other reason, which is still a theory, would be,
We don't know if Ichibei is really a Shinigami as he lived before the Soul Society existed he also had his "weapon" before the Zanpakuto was created so its also a mystery if his weapon is actually a Zanpakuto
For information, the 5 potential war people meant by ywhach are Ichigo, Kisuke, Azien, Ichibe(leader squad 0) & Zaraki..
The 7th and 8th Kenpachi introduce in the Can't Fear Your Own World and Spirits Are Forever With You Novel of Bleach
Zaraki is the 11th kenpachi, the title is passed from one person beating a kenpachi to become the new one except unohana. She gave up her role after “losing” to zaraki. When you guy get the chance read the spirits are forever with you light novel that talks about the 7th and 8th kenpachi and some other cool details from bleach lore
Btw kenpachi isn’t a reincarnation process. Basically you can challenge the current kenpachi to a death match and if you kill them you become the new one. You’ll find out why unohana is still alive despite this process in the next episode (or the one after that because this fight is pretty long)
We know five of the eleven Kenpachis by name and one more by reference.
Let’s fucking gooo m8 what a great episode 🔥🔥🔥🔥🐐
All those times people were afraid of her in the past makes so much sense now.
by the way to clarify she did stab him in the throat but healed him after because u can see that she had no blood on her cheek before stabing him but after they show a blood drop fall on her cheek and after kenpachi woke up she still had blood on her cheek so it cant be like a vision or mind fuckery
The guy with the healing hotspring mentioned that he taught Unohana the healing arts. So it's reasonable to assume that he was the first captain of Squad Four, the healing squad. Unohana on the other hand was the first captain of Squad Eleven and the first Kenpachi. She passed on the title of Kenpachi to her successor because she assumed that the current Kenpachi would eventually attempt to take over Squad Eleven and he was the one that most deserved the title. So the title was inherited by all the subsequent Captains of Squad Eleven. The current Kenpachi is the eleventh Captain to take the name (probably a joke on the part of Tite Kubo).
the title of kenpachi is given to the strongest soul reaper of their generation
He had to be careful what he said because he was about to get in trouble 🤣
I got notifications on but didn’t get one for this 🤔. Glad it randomly popped up while scrolling though
she was the 1st kenpachi then moved to 4th squad, trained to be a medic..the next kenpachi was passed on by killing the previous kenpachi..thats how from the 2nd up to zaraki..
Their have been a total of 11 kenpachis. The ones that we know by name are yachiru unohana being the first. The 7th kenpachi kuruyashiki, the 8th kenpachi azashiro, the 10th kenpachi which is the one zaraki kills to become the captain. And the 11th kenpachi which is zaraki.
oh boy oh boy, next episode is gonna be absolutely mind blowing, just wait guys, you haven't seen anything yet
So many revelations this episode! 🔥
The kenpachis fight always hard for me to see knowing that person had to die for that person. I remember the first time I read it in the manga.. I was like "WTF...NOOOOO THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!"
She has a “big spoon” 😅, right..that’s why he was thinking 😂😂😂
The kenoachi title is awarded the strongest fighter. She only recognizes him as the potential greatest kenpachi and there can only be one kenpachi
Yachiru(8,000 Styles).
Unohana.
Kenpachi was her full name
Unohana has been foreshadowed to be very strong pretty early on in the series, Shunsui and Ukitake were scared shitless when she got a little bit angry. In a data book released during the Soul Society arc Unohana was listed having total combat strength of 540/600, second only to Yamamoto who had 560/600. Her specialty was listed as Zenjutsu (the art of the sword), not healing.
Kenpachi named little girl Yachuri after her due to how much of an impact she had on him. Also he did indeed die once when Unohana stabbed him, remember she can heal.
The OST playing during the Kenpachi vs Unohana fight scenes was pretty dope.
Yachiru never killed any captain of the 11th squad. She was ordered to leave the seat officer of captain of the 11th squad vacant to dedicate herself on healing abilities. Kirinji tought her these abilities in order for her to assume the position of captain of the 4th squad. However Yachiru never once forsook the title of Kenpachi, despite the fact that we had already 5 captains of the 11th squad. All claimed the title Kenpachi but none ever fought for that title except Zaraki when killed the previous captain of the 11th squad, however, the true title remains with Unohana Yachiru a.k.a Yachiru Kenpachi
Unohana is the 1st Kenpachi and Zaraki is the 11th (said in Soul Society arc), so there were 9 more Captains of the squad 11 between them with the title of Kenpach, which Zaraki killed the 10th and took his place.
The next episode we'll see Unohana's bankai. That is creepy shit. Trust me!)
if you look at when he gets stabbed in the neck, he spits blood out onto her cheek and when he has his sword and is confused, she still has the blood on her cheek, its the animators letting you know that it really did happen, he did get stabbed.
Yup Bro, Unohana was the first Kenpacchi! She has the Demon Mode Character inside of her and this episode was amazing! 👌🏼🔥
That is Unohana's/Yachiru's bankai. The red blade that went through Zaraki.
4:55 yes to everyone's shock🤯
I think Unohana switched over to Squad 4 and the line of Kenpachi's started anew with Zaraki being the latest one. It's arguable that that the second line doesn't really count since no one had ever killed Unohana and truly earned the title.
She didn't kill them(other Kebpachi)....she just "abandoned" the name. The next ones killed themselves to inherit the name
@StruckByBelz I think you guys might have overlooked the last name of Kirio (The part that said Hikifune). That's the same name as the captain that got promoted in the flashback of how urahara became captain.... She was originally the captain of Hiyori squad. and then after she left Hiyori doesnt like Urahara, and always talks about Hikifune being better....
That scene back in season one where the squad 11 members were terrified of Unohana. makes a lot more sense now, doesn't it? 😏
You guys are right now she is training to become the next kenpachi....
4:55 Now this reveal is more impactful than Spectre DLC character reveal on DNF Duel.
Okay so without spoiling anything Unohana was the first Kenpachi, and after a while she had changed squads and became the captain of the 4th division as a healer, since that day, the Kenpachi of squad 11 had been determined by someone killing the previous one. Zaraki then killed the 10 Kenpachi hundreds of years later to become the 11th Kenpachi. It’s sort of like in boxing, if you retire the champion, and then the next champion is just who wins a set up fight, not because they actually beat you. She’s basically the heavyweight champion of the world and never gave up the title, and now Zaraki and Unohana are fighting, which means is Zaraki kills Unohana he would be the undisputed Kenpachi of the Gotei 13. It’s not EXACTLY like that but it’s the best analogy I could come up with.
Fun Fact both Yamamoto and Unohana are part of the First Generation of the Gotei 13, Yamamoto was the one that personally recruited Unohana (Real name Yachiru Unohana) due to her being extremely dangerous back then so she was the first Captain to be recruited by Yamaji and the first to initiate the Kenpachi tradition, "There can only 1 Kenpachi" tradition, the Kenpachi title is can only be taken when the current title holder dies, in other words if you want to be a Kenpachi you have to kill your predecessor or die trying, Yachiru learn healing techniques from Tenjiro in order to fight longer during her battles, but at some point in the past she left the 11 squad and moved to the 4th Squad, there have been 11 Kenpachis after her, with Zaraki being the 11th. Now Yachiru and Zaraki are currently engaging in a Death Battle cause only one of them can live and claim the title of strongest shinigami.
I think it's badass that Unohana is so powerful that she has to conceal/control her power because otherwise it can kill others around her.
There are 3 ways to become a captain. 1 is to be nominated by other captains like what Yoruichi did for Urahara. Two is for the previous captain to either vacate their position by moving on to other positions just like what happened to Shunsui when he left squad 8 and became the Squad 1 captain or have an untimely death like what happened to Yamamoto. The third is to kill the current captain which is what Kenpachi did to the previous captain of Squad 11. Unohana vacated the title of Kenpachi and the squad 11 position and moved on to squad 4. Kenpachi Zaraki killed the previous squad 11 captain that's how he was able to become a captain without ever achieving bankai. I also think there's another Kenpachi alive who is currently imprisoned in Muken like Aizen. There's more to this lore and I can't wait for Kubo to expand on it all in the future.
if you are the only one who can teach Zaraki then your a goat
Your questions will be answered the next Episode. Unahana was the first as you just found out and others came after but Kenpachi Zaraki is the 11th Kenpachi and its mentioned in one of the earlier episodes and as well a small tidbit was in the Bount arc that showed how he became the Captain.
Love you guys just wait it’s gonna get nuts
