Little late to be saying, but Ichigo can dominate Byakuya =P This was pointed out on the first page and i'm really late =o Byakuya tied/lost to Ichigo when ichigo was super nub... And his hollow side dominated him on his own. Let's say Ichigo can control that hollow side now, and see what happens in a fight there =P

how much time has passed since then? not much, Ichigo is still a greenhorn + you are assuming we have seen everything Byakuya had to offer(Manga chp 301).. therefore I call "dominate" an exaggeration

Yah but Byakuya actually lost, meaning he wasn't pulling out all the stuff, but he wasn't going weakling on him =P Dominate may be an exaggeration, but if Byakuya won, i'd kill myself following that fight.

1) Byakuya was taking Ichigo lately. You can tell right away Byakuya is a "4 trades shinigami". The fact that he fought Ichigo primarily with zanjutsu during the entire fight shows he was taking ichigo lightly. The moment Byakuya switched things up, attacked from another angle, used a little kido, and Ichigo got owned as fast as Renji did.

Byakuya is kind of like an athlete that has sound fundamentals and doesn't rely on sheer athleticism. Even if you sent the Hulk at him he'd figure some way to keep him at bay. Of course, the jack of all trades is a problem with Byakuya, he can rally with his opponent but at best will win out of attrition and not attack ability (his offense is pretty pitiful).

Byakuya - ::shunpos away::
Ichigo - ::collapses::

In something like boxing Byakuya would be the winner cos he could still stand but that was cos of the thing with his bones. Also why didn't Byakuya use kidou, if Rukia could use Bakudo 36 Byakuya should at least be able to use Bakudo 72

Byakuya used lightning to perforate ichigo, that sure looked like Kidou to me. All you guys just can't face the reality that Ichigo with his bankai and mask would rip your precious captains a new one! All at the same time!

Um, don't you guys realise Byakuya LET Ichigo live? It was only because of his fairness that he accepted he was bested in an all-out fight. If he was obseed about victory he could've easily(well maybe not so easily) used kidou to wipe the floor with him.


BTW i wonder what would happen if Ichigo/Kenpachi ever learned hadou 61 O_o *shudders*

It's just like in this episode, out of the promise he made to his parents after they died he didn't break the rules but he lets others break the rules for him just like in this episode he said to Renji that he gives him complete control of the squad to find Rukia and Ichigo. Byakuya is skilled in kidou, so Jerseykid doesn't it tell you something that when Byakuya used Bakudo Number 4: White Lightning and it hurt Ichigo badly imagine what would of happened if he used the Blue Fire Crash Down one.

HAHHAHA Are you guys fucking kidding me?!

"My sword has been shattered by your free spiritness, I will not pursue Rukia anymore, this fight is your victory(he said something along those lines after the fight was done)"

Do you guys seriosly think Byakuya went easy on Ichigo? That he took him lightly?
This isn't even worth arguing about, its just ridiculous.

So using 1 spell makes all the difference ? He could have used highlevel spells to keep Ichigo contained and then killed him but didnt.

Just dont know what to say about your second sentence, its just so full of bullshit its retarded.

He fought against Ichigo to test his resolve, no doubt he was fighting as hard as he could with a huge handicap on his side, no usage of kido(except the single lightning) is taking away alot of Byakuyas power.

From what i can recall Byakuya is very talented in kido usage and could have used alot of useful spells against Ichigo in their fight but never did since he wanted to beat him with sword only.

The difference from our arguments is that im using facts, you are using speculation.

And if we are talking about "what if's", what if Ichigo cut Byakuyas throat when he just got Bankai? Talking about what if's is pointless, there is only one winner and the one who won was Ichigo, at least according to Byakuya and there is no way in hell someone with his personality would go easy on someone or test his resolve.

That Shuu boy is so annoying... other than being a useless crybaby, he interrupted the fight between Amagai and Ichigo... they didnt even go into bankai state -.-

There is one important thing in the plot of Bleach that is getting more confusing after each episode...
The theory of the souls of the living going to either the soul society or hell.... that was the most interesting thing in this series and i've been waiting for more details on that but it seems that after the first arc, none of that was explained anymore and now the Soul Society is looking more and more like the real world... there are even "bad" ppl in it while at first it was supposed that only "good" ppl were sent to the soul society, and there are lots and lots of other unclear issues....

So you're telling me a man with enough energy to shunpo away had no chance of killing a man who lost about 2 litres of bklood and unable to move?! He was fighting for the laws of SS. He did NOT go easy on Ichigo, BUT last time I tuned into Aizen-sensei lesson 1, it stated that shinigami have 4 different atacks. Just because his sword was shattered doesn't mean that he couldn't fight anymore[aka kidou]. He lost his pride and desire to fight to uphold SS' laws at that point in time, therefore losing his will to fight.

BTW if you're a strictly-anime viewer I will have to stop arguing

All Ichigo has is brute strength and swordsman ship. As Soifon showed last ep his abilities in other departments of fighting are notably lacking. (which is why someone like Aizen who mastered all forms of combat is so freaking powerful aside from his hypnosis) He could try to just overpower them and while it might work it could also go either way. And he certainly can't fight all the other captains and win. He's not that much more powerful than them that his attacks are that much more effective. This isn't like DBZ where being slightly more powerful than someone makes you completely invulnerable to any harm from them.

And why would he try to kill the other captains? They are more or less on the same side just being fooled into fighting each other again. Which is why he didn't just kill Byakuya back in the SS arc. He instead managed to convince him and defeat his resolve which was a much more effective than just ganking him and killing him when he had the chance (not to mention killing Byakuya then would have had Rukia die on the hill if not everyone there and assuming Ichigo survived would have branded him a permanent criminal to SS and might have left SS as a whole fractured making them easy pickings for Aizen)

Just killing doesn't always work. If he'd killed Amagai that would have been it for Ichigo and Rukia at SS and they would become permanent fugatives.

Ichigo wasnt fighting Soifon seriously... if he fought any of the captains the same way as in the arrancar arc (ex. grimjaw) he definitly wins. As we have seen so far, ichigo's spirit is way beyond some restrain kido techniques and we also know that Ichigo is a speed type in his bankai form so i dont think kido will affect him that much.

I would like to know who is Ichigo's father and back to the question on my previous post.... how come he is back in his human form?
