    It's pretty cool to see the lineage of terminology and how certain things persist down the years.

    Unless I'm forgetting some pre-2003 source, Syunsuke came up with the romanisation of Roa's name too.

    do you think Add could turn into a 2-part weapon like a shield and sword or a pair of daggers, or do you think if he did that it would break the seal on Rhongo because he split apart

    I don't think he can. His forms are extensions of Rhongomyniad, itself is a single weapon. The closest one is his bow and arrow form, and the arrows are made of magical energy.

    MHXX does it. Then again, she is a joke character.

    What about something like Ukitake from Bleach, two swords joined by rope?

    Hisagi's Bankai is a better example given it's only one Zampakuto spirit, but with two weapons attached by a chain.

    That would be Hisagi's Shikai. His Bankai is a big tree-like thing made of chains.

    Technically the chain is the true part of the weapon

    Theoretically, the worms eating newly formed placentas would kill any of Sakura's pregnancy, resulting in a ilusion of infertility. But at the same time, we arent dealing with wild animals but magic familiars, so presumably Zouken can decide its time for a baby and tell the worms to fuck off and die, no placenta eating anymore, i need this kid.

    Also, all the placenta eating worms are goe after the first Kirei surgery only the heart Zouken worm is left, and thats dealt with later.

    In the original game, his name is often spelled in katakana, which can be rendered as all caps in translation

    Hisagi is the protagonist of the sequel novels, so he naturally gains a Bankai for the finale. Shinji’s Bankai also get featured there.

  17. #32477
    It's a really cool bankai, also shows us shinji's bankai and really bluntly tells us why he didnt use it against aizen

    It would've made everything worse

    A trilogy titled Can't Fear Your Own World, by Narita (yes, the same Narita from Fate/strange Fake). Kubo couldn't fit the Soul King lore planned for the final arc into the manga, so Narita took Kubo's notes and turned into a post-ending Hisagi-centric story. And since the Soul King stuff is central to Aizen, Ginjou, and Yhwach's motivations, the novels also filled in the three villains' backstories and retroactively made Bleach make sense.

    Yeah, knowing all this and rereading Bleach has made Bleach a better manga to read. Now I gotta actually finish and get those novels.

    It also makes the Soul Ticket thing make awful sense...
