Kisuke Urahara

And I think that also shows that there's a lot of fans within the studio to, again, ask him these detailed questions, ask him, how would the bankai work for this and is it shown this way or should we show it that way like you know what i mean it it really feels like there's an amazing collaboration happening between the studio and kubo

and and funny you say that because like one of the my favorite things that's like literally the little stories that i've heard about this collaboration in recent weeks is uh how in sync the team is with kubo's original ideas because I know that Kubo hadn't actually said anything about how Urahara's Bankai is portrayed in terms of movement.

And there's like a single frame in the manga where it shows him possibly like skating along the stitches.

but the but the the team working on the anime like they kind of just got it and they were like this is clearly what he meant by this and obviously we see it so well shown in the anime of like him utilizing the stitching of and remaking of things to as a movement skill

especially Grimjaw and his new fit in his thousand year blood warfare is great like

um but I like I even like that visual of Nell on the side of a building like watching the fight

really cool yeah because she's like she's like and again this goes to show like how far ahead like uh Urahara fought it out because he she's like on the building watching saying oh this is something that he actually said might happen And based on what's happening, I'll have maybe 30 seconds to get them out before they die.

Jump in.

Hold on.

Kisuke, why didn't he help them save Rukia? If he was like the former captain of squad 12 and like the captain of research and development.

You're jumping all over the place now.

You can't keep up no more, did you? I can explain it to you, but, like, you need to get there for yourself, brother.

Let's cut them out, right? We're good.

You know who we haven't seen a lot of? Urahara.

All right, he, he can stay in the story.

They can still adapt Camp Fear Your Own World, change it a little bit, introduce Tokinada.

the dragons don't even land a hit

... we're thinking, we're thinking of Bleach: Brave Souls because they have a big extended dragons do a cool thing when he uses his soul bomb.

Yep, and then also, I, I also think we're mixing in the, is it, uh, Camp Funeral World Kisuke Urahara, where he also does-

Yeah

name.

Urahara?

Urahara.

And it's fetishized.

It's gross.

Oh, yeah.

Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, Kisuke's.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

um he murdered uh well he almost attempted murdered momo he um manipulated Ichigo's entire life.

He fucked over Kisuke Urahara and the other squad captains of the Soul Society, turned them into hollows.

He did hollow experimentation on mad soul reapers, erasing their souls from existence, putting them and turning them into monsters.

He also killed Gein.

There's so many really good meetings.

One of the ones that I brought up when the reaction video was when they're up with a sulking palace and Kukaku was there and Hollybell was there and they were talking about like, and, um, Urahara was talking about how he's seen this before.

He kind of knew this existed.

And we get a lot of really good dialogue there.

No, it's good.

I actually am like so... ready to see the swords be dished out but then cause we've already seen tidbits of like through Urahara and Samora of when they got their swords especially Urahara cause he was talking about how that other lightning guy was passed up yeah cause Natsuki yeah his older brother gets one but he doesn't get it Urahara gets it instead and he's just like why

so we've seen that we still haven't seen the fourth one the girl

no We've only seen her in mainline story.

But then someone arrived to save him.

The former captain of the 12th Division, Kisuke Urahara, offered to help Ichigo save Rukia, but only if he managed to become a Shinigami through his own power this time without borrowing someone else's.

So over the next several days, Ichigo went through a rigorous training until he finally regained the ability to transform into a Soul Reaper.

And this time, he was much stronger than before.

It was around this time that Ichigo also unlocked his sword's potential after learning its true name.

Zangetsu.

With this, Ichigo finally gained the ability to summon his Shikai, the first combat-ready form of his sword, which gave him the power to go toe-to-toe with the likes of Urahara.

With this power-up, Ichigo entered the Soul Society for the first time and beat down quite a few lieutenants, including Renji once again.
