Well, technically, this thread is about Ichigo's powers as a hollow. The whole side-issue about Zangetsu is technically way off topic, and I am presenting reasons for my opinion. You can't convince me, because you aren't advancing any credible reasons for your opinion. Your beliefs are only supported by what a fallible character in the show has told you. Mine at least have a semblance of logic.

Why? What reason do you have to disbelieve, that he is an aspect of Ichigo?
The fact, that he has a different personality and other motivations is no proof. Just look at people with split personalities: They have completely seperate personalities, even working against each other and still are all part of one human.

OK then. If you want to argue that Ichigo really has a split personality, then you can do so. However, I find it hard to believe that any mangaka would create himself a protagonist who is mentally ill. That would not fit in with Occam's Razor at all! It's far simpler to assume that Zanpakuto are, in fact, a separate individual. You could explain away every instance of Zanpakuto individuality by citing Multiple Personality Disorder, but that would require you to believe that every Seated Shinigami is mentally ill! :heh:

Well, sometimes it happens that you get some neg rep... you shouldn't take it to heart. However, nobody should get negative reputation, just for disagreeing with someone. On the other hand, maybe it was your refusal to think about your opinion which brought you in this negative rep.

Hey, if anyone's not thinking about their opinion, it's you and the others who insist on believing the illogical premise that you have advanced in the face of all reason. I wouldn't normally bitch about negrep, but it's pissing me off. This forum appears to be all about groupthink, and I've never been a fan of that. I'm sorry that I re-registered, after the crash, to be blunt.

Zangetsu strike me as very old, much older then Ichigo, as if he had lived for thousand and thousands of years before Ichigo came along, and in that time he ponders, and have decided that the grunge hippie look is the ultimate look.
But then again a disorderly personality can be whatever he wants to be.

It's hardly conclusive evidence, but to me it is suggestive. I cannot believe that something as complex and apparently ancient as Zangetsu was created right along with Ichigo, barely 15 years ago. Thank you for at least considering my view.
