    I mean... terchnically the readers actually DID see Aizen activating his Shikai before, and it was not so long ago.
    Remember the flashback of Barragan? Aizen held up his sword, and said to Barragan that this is his sword, "Kyoka Suigetsu". In a way, you can say that this is not only intended to hypnotize Barragan, but also the reader >=D
    Sure, people can say that during the Soul Society Arc we have NOT seen him release his Zanpakuto, and we still saw the fake Aizen impaled, but still... I like to think that we all got hypnotized, and that is why even the readers did not notice the switch up here ;D

      I think he lost that requirement when he achieved bankai and just let everyone else assume it still had that prerequisite to work. It’s far more sinister and spooky if he never has to cue to you that he might be using his complete hypnosis before you even know he’s there or the instant his spirit pressure hits you.

    • @bluepill2288
      @bluepill2288 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      I always felt that was kind of a weak reasoning as to why he targets her. Aizen intentionally manipulated and molded Hinamori to be blindly loyal to him from the very start, as he told renji in the final act of the soul society arc. Would he hate her for letting him achieve his outcome? And during the fake karakura arc she joins the battlefield and says that he is the enemy of soul society, her blind loyalty to him had ceased at that point.
      I think a much more interesting theory is that Momo is his final tie to humanity, as he played the role of the kind and noble captain for so long with her... maybe it affected him in some way, maybe a supressed part of his psyche longed for genuine connection but couldn't accept it from someone who he considered so inferior to him, it also tracks with his view of bonds, reliance and trust as a fundamental weakness. Momo is also a character defined by her bonds of friendship throughout the story, even though Aizen's manipulation strains most of these relationships, you get the sense that she truly cares about Hitsugaya, Kira, Renji and Rangiku.
      So i think that by targeting Momo he is trying to rebuke any trace of humanity within himself, as that would lead him to become the ultimate self reliant being (which is spelled out in whole "how gods are created" dialogue he has with shinji)
      Its essentially why he is attempting to fuse with the hogyoku, to no longer be a normal shinigami and ascend to godhood. A neat detail is that the hogyoku starts to accept him only after the switch with momo occurs

    I believe the illusion started the moment after the last captain was injured by eisen.
    As you might have noticed at some point, Aizen stopped countering and dealing damage to the soul reapers and just started only repelling their attacks. I believe that is the starting point when he activated the illusion and swapped with momo.

    The panel where his shout are heard by the captains are purely because Aizen ALLOWED it.
    And it also make so much sense why Ichigo don't just rush there to attack or snap them out of it.
    He's currently being too careful with Kyouka Suigetsu's power. He is too afraid, he is literally the only hope. He definitely wouldn't want to mess it up.

    I think the switch happened after Soi Fon used suzumebachi on Aizen. If the switch happened before that then suzumebachi would've killed Momo due to Momo not having as much Reiatsu as Aizen which would mean the difference in strength would have to be extremely large for this to be the case.
    On the topic of Suzumebachi Aizen negating it with his Reiatsu has caused many people to assume that just simply being stronger than Soi Fon stops her Shikai from working not taking in the fact that she lost her arm which is something that made Grimmjow get removed from the Espada and that she fired two Jakuho Raikobens which she said she usually can only manage once every 3 days meaning she was exhausted and missing an arm which means she was very weak when she attacked Aizen.

      That's just not true though while Aizen has higher Reiatsu than most captains he was still able to be cut by Shinji and we know that wasn't an illusion because the second time Shinji tried to attack and Aizen appeared behind Shinji he still had a wound on his arm.

    this fight, and that exact sequence with Hitsugaya and Momo left me completely dumbfounded, I have no idea how Kubo pulls it off, but that man is a genius, I remember a few videos ago you mentioned about Hitsugaya and Momo actually having a chance at Aizen in battle and all I could remember was this exact moment, there's a reason why people love Aizen as a villain, and I believe it's cemented on this part of the story, it's so twisted because he actually allows Momo to see that it was Hitsugaya and not an illusion, it's brutal and horribly demoralizing for the good guys, at the same time this is still just starting.

    I’m pretty sure the shikai release requirement to experience Aizen’s illusions was either always a red herring or completely irrelevant after Aizen achieved bankai. I do not recall seeing the fake “water” release as the reader/watcher, but the body illusion from the Soul Society Arc and all of Aizen’s other illusions are still directly visible to us as the audience. I think Kubo would have kept it consistent rather than having to retcon that, since us being under his complete hypnosis is canon like [REDACTED] redacting [REDACTED]’s name in the early chapters while Ichigo trains with Urahara in the first arc.

    Knowing what we know about "the heart" in Bleach, I wonder if at 1:50 that panel "I can almost reach your heart" had a deeper significance than just a simple threat? Just conjecture but I've not had this stuff on my mind so heavily on a read through, and there it is right after his last big battle, where ulquiorra could almost reach their hearts.
    There's usually some kind of understanding Ichigo gets about his opponents while fighting them, and here it could be Aizen saying you're almost there with me, but not quite?
    Or is he just shit talking again?

    @xKazeshi98x หลายเดือนก่อน

    Personal take, I believe that we were given a hint in the anime as to when Aizen started using his hypnosis, which was when there was a flash of white when Komamura tried to get Aizen, but that's just a personal take, and I'm not sure about when Momo suddenly got pulled into the mix.
    If anything, now that I think about it, and this is assuming Momo actually hasn't achieved Bankai at this moment in time, during the fight with Halibel's fracciones, we saw (in the anime, not sure if this was the case in the manga) that Momo seemingly deactivated her Shikai for a moment, only for her to use Tobiume again without even calling out its name, which is something only Soul Reapers who have attained Bankai could do. So, if Momo had yet to achieve Bankai, that means that Momo's presence was already being manipulated starting from that point on. She might not have even been wounded by Ayon :v but idk, crackpot theory right here. All with the assumption that that one scene with Momo activating Shikai without calling its name might mean _something_.

  • @swan3swan
    @swan3swan หลายเดือนก่อน

    (Not really a spoiler because the only answer is that WE NEVER GET AN ANSWER): My best guess for the switch after many, many years is that Aizen did something to Momo's Lieutenant badge, allowing him to switch places in a pinch. Some Kido enchantment. There was focus on how she'd donned the badge for her return...
    The question is always when he activated it. There's no Homunka mark on Momo, so it wasn't between stabs from Soi Fon. It can't be before the stabs, because Momo wouldn't have survived two (durable as she is).
    Something had to cast a shadow on the ice for Shunsui to use his power. So someone was THERE. But his outfit doesn't appear damaged later...though it's possible he swapped with Momo, healed himself, fixed his outfit with a spell, and then sat up.
    That's the best I've got.

  • @xCorvus7x

    Now that you mention how long in advance Aizen prepared the use of his shikai, his plan to some extent depends on the Gotei 13 being a rather unchanging, one might call it conservative (I mean this in a neutral sense, please understand this separate from real-life politics), organisation.
    He put them under his spell a century ago but if the personnel was replaced on shorter timescales, he'd have to make a show for every one or at least every new member ever so often, which would have been much more suspicious.
    In part this is justified by soul reapers being basically immortal (even though they do seem to age), so it makes sense that such changes happen over much longer timespans than in the case of human organisations, which makes this conservative nature part of the worldbuilding.
    While Aizen is also absurdly strong, his plan could not have worked the way it did, had he not put the entire Gotei 13 under his spell.
    Another consequence would have been that there'd be less of a justification for Ichigo's role to be exceptional.
