== Aizen doesn't have Bankai ==
When he discovered he hit the jackpot on the super power roulette he didn't need to unlock bankai, when the time came for him to become captain he just used his good old complete hypnosis.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20090424041435/http://manga.animea.net/bleach-chapter-120-page-9.html\]
** [[Completely Missing the Point]]. Aizen's Shikai is so broken that he can fool everybody, including Yoruichi, into thinking that he has a Bankai. When it comes to the Captain exams, Aizen just shows off his "water illusion" bullshit as a Shikai, and then pulls something out of his ass for a Bankai.
* Jossed. We'll never know since his Zanpakuto gone for good now.
Line 242:
Ichigo is the King's Key.
 
Think about it. In Soul Society, the Soukyoku [https://web.archive.org/web/20100513033925/http://manga.animea.net/bleach-chapter-151-page-6.html was said to have the power of one million zanpakutou], yet Ichigo blocked it with one. If we go by the soul count of each zanpakutou, [[Captain Obvious|that's one million souls.]] And this was ''before'' Ichigo fought Byakuya, underwent Hollow training, and even knew that Aizen was a threat. Besides, who ever said that the Key was composed of ''only'' one hundred thousand souls?
 
But Aizen already knew this. Surely he heard about Ichigo's little run-in with the Soukyoku, and got curious. It's possible that he had no idea that the little Ryoka that he crushed effortlessly was the one object that he was looking for (that, or he was bluffing). And way, way back at the start of the Hueco Mundo arc, when Ichigo and the others entered Hueco Mundo, he could have detected the Key's reiatsu within Ichigo's own. At this point, having lured Ichigo into Hueco Mundo with Orihime as bait, Aizen just had to sit back and watch while things unfolded on their own and Ichigo grew even ''more'' ridiculously powerful than he already was.
Line 250:
Now that Aizen has Ichigo right where he wants him, he can reveal all this to him, creating another ludicrous [[Wham! Episode]], surprising all of Bleach's readers, and launching his attack on the now-vulnerable fourth wall, as detailed above.
 
* Problem: If you look at Ichigo during the scenes when he's repelling the Soukyoku he's wearing an odd cape with large clasp on it. It looks very similar to the [https://web.archive.org/web/20100513043909/http://manga.animea.net/bleach-chapter-151-page-13.html Shihouin family symbol]. Soi Fon later [https://web.archive.org/web/20100513034020/http://manga.animea.net/bleach-chapter-154-page-12.html confirms] that it is when confronting [https://web.archive.org/web/20100513034025/http://manga.animea.net/bleach-chapter-154-page-13.html Shihouin Yourichi] about why she's assiting Ichigo. Ichigo repelling the Soukyoku is not that impressive.
** Yeah... but then Yoruichi confirms on that same page that ''flight'' was necessary for saving Rukia. The cloak only helped Ichigo get to the top of the Soukyoku. And Yoruichi never said that the cloak stopped the Soukyoku, if that's what you're trying to say.
*** True. But that's not my point. The Soukyoku was destroyed by a relic of the Shihouin family, which Yourichi is a part of. These are facts, substantiated by the manga. It is also a fact that Ichigo was wearing the crest of the selfsame family when he repelled the Soukyoku. The simplest explanation (In following with the principal of Occam's Razor) is that the crest repelled the Soukyoku rather than Ichigo, otherwise you have to start creating thousands of smaller theories about why Ichigo, who is stronger than 1,000,000 soul cutters, ever lost to anyone at all. Especially considering what Ishida said way back in Chapter 49 (and the next two pages).
Line 288:
 
== Ichigo has in fact already fallen under Kyoka Suigetsu's illusions ==
If one looks closely at Barragan's flashback, Barragan had already fallen to Kyoka Suigetsu's illusion when Aizen asks him to look at it, as seen in [https://web.archive.org/web/20121128200227/http://manga.animea.net/bleach-chapter-371-page-7.html here]. In other words, just Aizen mentioning his Zanpakuto's name releases it.
* Aizen releases it not 5 pages after the one linked to. He got the sword out and showed it to him so he'd be sure to see it when it was released.
* I agree. How? Why? Simple. We learned a long time ago that a Bankai user doesn't have to call out the name of his sword to release shikai(Renji vs Byakuya fight). So, Aizen doesn't have to do anything flashy to release - at any moment when Ichigo is looking at his sword(and he has to if he wants to dodge any attack) he can release Kyoka Suigetsu and put Ichigo under his hypnosis.S o, barring an enormous [[Idiot Ball]] or [[Villain Ball]](or an alternate method to beat Kyoka Suigetsu) on Aizen's part, he's already won.

== Of the Espada, only Starrk and Harribel were Vasto Lorde. ==
Take a look at their Ressurrección: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130425010256/http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/File:Starkreleased.jpg Los Lobos] and [https://web.archive.org/web/20140818190400/http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/File:Harribel_released2.jpg Tiburón], respectively. Notice any similarities? ''No Hollow parts'', apart from their clothes (Starrk's eyepiece, Harribel's bone armor). Being a Vasto Lorde!Arrancar means that when you go [[One-Winged Angel|Resurrección]], you retain your humanity and actually just look like a human wearing funny clothes. By this logic the levels the Espada were at before becoming Arrancar could be:
{{quote|'''Starrk:''' Very powerful Vasto Lorde.
'''Baraggan:''' Powerful Adjuchas.
Line 592:
 
== The mysterious ramen guy is a Quincy! ==
* Well, if you look [https://web.archive.org/web/20110111092839/http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/22933320/1 here], he does appear to be wearing a Quincy Cross. And he obviously has some connection to the spiritual world. And it would be kind of funny, what with Ishida constantly procaliming to be the 'Last Quincy' in the early volumes of Bleach.
* [[Jossed]]. He's a Fullbringer.
 
Line 623:
== Arrancar lose their hollow hole as the get stronger ==
Vizard and Arrancar are counterparts more or less. Looking at Ichigo, it seems that a Vizard gains a hollow hole as the become more powerful and more hollow like. Using that logic, shouldn't Arrancar lose their hollow holes as the become more powerful and more like shinigami. One should also notice that the strongest Arrancar; Primera Espada, Segunda Espada, and both Tres Espada; don't appear to have hollow holes. Szayel could've also used this to rise to the rank Octo Espada, my guess is he was originally around Aaronierro(Did I spell that right?)'s strength this could be supported by the Hell Chapter were Aaronerro believing he could take Szayel.
* [[Jossed]]. [https://web.archive.org/web/20131105093811/http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100630090661/bleach/en/images/thumb/5/54/Starkreleased.jpg/190px-Starkreleased.jpg Yeah, about that...]
