THE STRONGEST BANKAI | KENPACHI THE DEMON | BLEACH Breakdown

I think you missed one bit. His zanpakuto didn't take the form of Yachiru. Yachiru was the physical manifestation of his zanpakuto the whole time

When I saw Kenpachi's Bankai for the first Time I legit had Goosebumps. It was so Unexpected. Dude Unlocked both Shikai and Bankai on the same day. It's also Poetic how his Bankai is Nameless like himself.

Kubo stated that Nozarashi's sword spirit is an adult version of Yachiru and that Yachiru was a small piece of the sword spirit broken away and manifested in the outside world kinda like Azashiro's zanpakuto and the reason Yachiru vanished after the war was because she had remerged back with the main body of the sword spirit

BTW alot of people get this wrong but when kenpachi goes bankai he doesn't cut gerard's arm he bites on his knuckle and reaps his arm of like a pitbull (true savage moment).

Kenpachi is so powerful that even his own body can't sometimes handle it. When he goes full berserk watch out as Toshiro and Byakuya pointed out. He's truly a legacy OP monster of Gotei 13.

I think the most interesting aspect of Kenpachi's bankai is how he got it. Everyone else has to basically force their zanpakuto into submission in order to attain bankai, meanwhile the mindless brute most known for saying "swords are just tools" is actually the one with the deepest and most intimate connection with his zanpakuto spirit, and the way Yachiru says "what everyone else calls bankai" implies that Kenpachi got a more complete or better version of it. Though I'm sure if you asked Kenpachi what he would choose he would 100% absolutely pick having his closest friend back in material form over shikai/bankai.

For real. I think Kenpachi is the most interesting and badass character in bleach. He's an enigma with limitless potential. He's basically a god in the making. He needs his own series.

Forever love Kenpachi cause while everyone is saucing up with magic powers and elemental effects Kenpachi said "No, Im just gunna cut really really good."

I don't understand why you're talking about Nozarashi "taking the form of" Yachiru when it's clear that Yachiru was Nozarashi all along.

Theory: Kenpachi retrieved his Zanpakuto from a dead body, so it was already a partially formed Asauchi. This is why his Zanpakuto was able to manifest in its Bankai Form, yet also use a unique Shikai, posing as his Lieutenant, as it was subjugating the partially formed Asauchi and modifying it, allowing it to use that strength, instead of its own. From the beginning, Yachiru appeared from nowhere, stroking Kenpachi's sword. Both had no names, yet they bonded throughout the years, far surpassing the bond that Renji achieved with his Zanpakuto. However, a name is important in Bleach, they hold immeasurable power, so their bond was only one of understanding and spirituality, not one of power. Yachiru understood the paradox that Kenpachi was in. He loved to fight, but his opponents were too weak, so he weakened himself. Any increase in power would be a curse, not a boon, and would only cause him to become weaker, to compensate. Only after he kills Unohana, is this paradox resolved, as he no longer has weak opponents. However, that doesn't negate the many years of atrophy that his body has undergone, from under usage, so his body still isn't prepared to use his FULL strength, which is his Bankai, where he holds absolutely nothing back, using everything he has with each strike made. Bankai: I believe that his mindless bloodlust, is to remove ALL possible mental constraints, making him use only instinct, to have him fight at 100% at all times. Once his atrophied body becomes used to his unrestrained power, he won't damage himself anymore.

Kenpachi’s Bankai is goated AF. I think after ten years, he’s probably more comfortable in the oni form. Maybe he even unlocked new techniques.

Kubo did a great job justifying why Kenpachi was a true legend throughout the series. He was never just a gimmick character. The limits to his OP are understandable, and not just plot reasons. Nice to see a writer put so much care into their work.

Kenpachi's Bankai more closely resembles a resurrection more than any other Bankai. Kenpachi truly is on another level

If I'm not mistaken theres a bit more to that then "I released too much of your power" pretty sure it's also implied his body needs time to acclimate more or less this is Kaio-Ken x100 and because he hasn't trained using it he is just abusing himself as much as his enemies. However we know that Kenpachi is directly the "Saiyan" style of power where the closer to death he is the stronger he gets. So as it is kind of the way it's written he is Broly if given time he can outclass anything and anyone.

Good job man. I dropped bleach years ago after getting fed-up with the filler anime. Your vids made me catch up on everything i missed! Keep up the good work

I hope in the future Hell Arc that we’ll actually get to know the name of Kenpachi’s Bankai if it even has one. It would be really cool to hear Bankai from his voice. Also imagine how insane the fight with him and Unohana will be once animated…

This Part of the anime is gonna go sooooo crazy Kenpachi really the best side character ever fr his development and change into who he is now is mesmerizing

Considering a Bankai is meant to reflect your true nature, that fact that Kenpachi's Bankai turns him into a demonic berserker whose seems to operate on pure instinct, is very fitting. It will be interesting to see if his Bankai has changed in the years between the TYBW and the Hell arc.

Let's goo, definitely a video we needed! Such a nice breakdown.

As is typical with character's with too much spiritual pressure, their energy collapses in on itself when entering bankai. Kenpachi may need to learn something that fires out his spiritual like a getsuga. When that happens he'll be even deadlier than before. He wasn't allowed proper swordsmanship for a reason.
