A cool detail I've noticed within Bleach is that the noble clan zanpakutos we know of so far each seem to embody a core trait of the zanpakuto itself (all two noble zanpakuto lmao)

#1 the Kuchiki clan zanpakuto: Muramasa

Despite being introduced within filler and the full extent of its canon version mentioned in passing during CFYOW's first book is unknown, considering they reference the zanpakuto rebellion several times throughout the rest of CFYOW it's safe to say Muramasa works about the same way it does in the anime as it would in the mainline.

For those who don't know, Muramasa's got a lot going on with him but his big thing is he can enter the inner worlds of soul reapers and manipulate their zanpakuto's spirits to his advantage. His shikai form can simply turn the swords against you but his bankai, Mukojochu Muramasa, can bring the spirits of other zanpakuto as well as himself into the real world. This is well, shown in the rebellion arc itself. It's also worth noting Muramasa is much more independent opposed to other zanpakuto. While this is because of his assumption his master abandoned him (in the anime at least.)

But this plays into my first statement on these two swords, Muramasa embodies the spirit of the zanpakuto. The only other time in the series we see zanpakuto get manipulated by an outside force is PePe Waccabrada's schrift, the love. But even then it was not on the degree of control which Muramasa has. Being able to control larger groups with one command, being able to draw them into the real world, ect.

#2 the Tsunayashiro clan zanpakuto: Enrakyoten

Enrakyoten, like Muramasa made its (canon) debut in CFYOW and is used primarily by Tokinada Tsunayashiro. This blade's ability is to copy the shikais of other zanpakuto that the wielder has seen in action. The strength of the shikais mimicked depends on the user's reiatsu which could be very good or very bad depending on who is using it. But either way, weak or strong using this blade comes at a price. It drains your life away as you use this sword.

So what do I think this blade represents all things considered? The asauchi, the original blank slate of a sword that eventually turns into every zanpakuto we have ever seen. It doesn't take much to draw similarities here with Enrakyoten by itself not being able to do much but once its user witnesses other zanpakuto it can copy them, become them. Just like how the asauchi imprints on its user and becomes anything just based off their soul alone.

And well, that's just about all we can comment on about the royals. We do not know the Shihoin zanpakuto, nor do we know the Shiba's, we don't even know who the last noble clan is. But considering what limited info we know of these two blades I hope we can say the other 3 follow suit on the theming.

man it'll be so funny if it turns out this is just a wild coincidence

When I scrolled by a retweet of another Q&A translation mentioning an underwear question I'll admit this was not what I thought the post it was potentially talking about would be like

Here is my gift for this year's IchiRuki Basement Holiday Gift Exchange! 🥳

For @deathberi, who loves soulmate AUs and fluff! The idea behind this is an AU where until the day you meet your soulmate, you have to deal with your soulmate’s Zanpakutou spirit instead of your own! 😘

Will They Yeet Rukia?

Inspired by this post, which @toast-star tagged as "RenRuki", which is absolutely correct, but I started thinking about everybody else.

The reason Yachiru can yeet Rukia but not Soi Fon is that Yachiru has to good sense to launch her from atop Kenpachi's shoulder. She believes height is a choice.

The pure fucking ANGUISH on Ichigo's face remembering the last moment he thought he'd ever see Rukia,,,the GRIEF as if she died when she's actually fine but just can't see him anymore,,,,bro needs her in his life, he can't be satisfied with anything less,,,,

Yeah ofc he misses his powers for more reasons than Rukia disappearing, but the sorrow he felt from her absence was the catalyst for finally activating his fullbring,,,

Ichigo crying sobbing throwing up on the inside after she leaves while Rukia is just chillin in SS is so heiwiwjrfjshsjwj,,, lover boy relax she's doing fine,,,,pathetic (affectionate),,,

hello lovelies! A small rant, but someone needs to say something. If you actually like incest, pedophilia, or any of that in writing, or even at all, please please seek professional help. I cannot stress this enough. I can’t believe people don’t talk about this enough. I honestly don’t care if you use it to cope, write that for yourself PLEASE and stop putting it on the internet. Get therapy, or at least any kind of help PLEASE
