Oh yeah, and Aizen was 100% justified in his goal of overthrowing the Soul King. We know that thanks to the TYBW and CFYOW. Ichibe also isn't allowed to leave the Soul Society. He's not even supposed to leave the palace. If you're gonna call someone out for something at least get your facts right.

Aight I'm about to school your bitch ass

GeNoCiDe Is BaD... If war is genocide and genocide is inherently bad then the US and Russia are fucking monsters for tearing Nazi Germany and Japan a new one during WWII.

Byakuya is a samurai. He is honor bound to serve his family. His promise on his parents' graves was the honorable thing to do. I you don't understand that then I can't help you. And your whole argument gets completely negged by the fact Byakuya managed to retain both his vows.

You know most of the Soul Reapers Gin killed were corrupt right? And the ones that weren't pledged their lives to protect the Soul Society, which is what they did by being killed by Gin. Gin is every bit as justified as Itachi.

I hope Nnoitora comes back to life in the upcoming canon Espada light novel for that sole reason lmao. And I hope he comes back a 100x stronger Lmao.

Quincies aren't nazis just because they look like them lmao. Kubo drew them like that to make them look like a bigger threat.

Oh yeah, and Kugo wasn't jealous. That was a side dish compared to what really happened. Kugo's squad was slaughtered by Soul Reapers because Tokinada wanted to. Kugo just wanted Ichigo's powers to get revenge on the real bitch ass responsible for murdering his friends.

The nobles run the Soul Society.

#YwhachDidNothingWrong

You know, it’s sort of funny. Back when I read Bleach I didn’t really care for the Quincies on a moral level. I mean, it doesn’t help that most of them were villains (even Uryu was a villain to Ichigo at first) but, the more I play Soken the more open minded I become about them.

Uryu and his father gave the sense that they disliked/were indifferent to shinigami not to be mean, but because shinigami had practically wiped out the entirety of their race; the group of people who made them feel proud and accepted. Yes, the shinigami had to protect the balance of souls but they did massacre a whole bunch of people and that’s… not so cool, even for the greater good.

Then we have Yhwach, who at first comes across as a guy who is incredibly single minded in his goals and brutally cruel to his people. His undead(?) Quincy army are following him for a reason that isn’t quite explained (maybe out of fear?), and when they fail (even if they live) they are punished by their failure with death.

At the time, I was just thinking to myself “This man must be an idiot. You can’t win a war if you keep killing your soldiers!”

Then I started playing Soken and interacting with @fatherofquincy, @the-miracle-knight and @sumsinecorde and I realized that there really is a method behind the ‘madness’. Kubo, of course, wanted the Quincy to be villains so he didn’t explain it well but this is what I see:

There’s Yhwach, who has a handful of Quincy, about 26/27 (if you count Uryu). That is the same number as the letters in the alphabet (which is also part of the Steinritter’s theme) and that is not a lot of people to be waging a war with.

Of course, Yhwach has spent around 1000 years planning all of this and working it out, so he knows what he’s doing and why and if you look at his main goal, you can see why too.

Yhwach wants to create a world where there is no death. Where the worlds are one and no one feels pain or suffers; and you never lose your loved ones because they’re always with you.

Think of what that would mean for Uryu, who would get to see his mother, Soken and his grandmother again? Think of Ichigo, who would get to hug Masaki and tell her how sorry he was? Think of all the Quincy who had been killed by the shinigami and all the ones who had died in the war?

Yes, Yhwach kills his own men and yes, Yhwach regaining his powers does kill many Quincy prior to the war, but for the Quincies at least, he has every intention of seeing them again; of sharing the new world with them and having them ‘live’.

So when Bazz-B and the other Quincies freak out over not being chosen, of being sacrificed; they are only being  sacrificed temporarily. They will be back as soon as Yhwach wins the war and ends death.

Media likes to portray Yhwach’s idea as the end of the world; that such an existence would be dull, boring, mechanical and that the absence of pain would mean no joy. But would it really? It’s never happened before (as far as my knowledge) so how can you say that there can not be joy without pain?

At some point; I would have liked to see what would have happened if Yhwach had won.

If Grimmjow somehow earned the right to ask a favor of twelve people, who would he ask and for what? And yes the request was for ten people, but, well,  had more ideas than that! 

1. Yhwach

Grimmjow: I want you to use your future changing powers to create a future in which there is no more duct tape.

Yhwach: …

Yhwach: I am essentially an all-powerful being and you ask me for that?

Grimmjow: I really freakin’ hate duct tape.

2. Tosen

Grimmjow: Here’s a favor you can give me! Cut off your own damn arm!

Tosen: …

Tosen: You do not understand the true spirit of favors. Or you do know, and deliberately choose to ignore it.

Tosen: There is only one way you’ll learn. By me cutting off an arm.

Grimmjow (hopefully): Your own arm?

Tosen: No.

Grimmjow: PUT YOUR SWORD AWAY

3. Nelliel

Grimmjow: Dye your hair!

Nelliel: Huh? Why?

Grimmjow: The color is too similar to mine. My hair deserves to be special.

Nelliel: Hmmm…pink hair might be fun!

Grimmjow: Special hair here I come.

4. Urahara

Grimmjow: I want your hat.

Urahara: What?? Why???

Grimmjow: Maybe because I don’t like you and I know how much you like that hat.

Grimmjow: Maybe because it looks ridiculous and I want to save you from yourself.

Grimmjow: …

Grimmjow (muttering): Maybe because I know I’d look freakin’ awesome in a hat.

Urahara: I could get you a different hat?

Grimmjow: Make it a cool one!

5. Ikkaku

Grimmjow: I want you to tell me all of your eyeshadow secrets.

Grimmjow: ‘Cause your eyeshadow is on point.

Ikkaku: Yeah, okay. I could do that.

Grimmjow: Not that I need the help at all.

Ikkaku: Of course not.

6. Yumichika

Grimmjow: Give me your squad’s supply of abs oil.

Yumichika: I’m sorry - what?

Grimmjow: Don’t give me that!

Grimmjow: I know you Squad 11 guys must oil your abs!

Grimmjow: And I know if anyone knows where the grooming products are stored, it’s you!

Grimmjow: So hand it over!

Yumichika: I knew it.

Yumichika: I knew you oiled.

Grimmjow: We’re not talking about me!!!

7. Ulquiorra

Grimmjow: Look, just do me this favor - respect dibs!

Ulquiorra: Is this about my fighting Kurosaki Ichigo?

Ulquiorra: I only fought him for real after you had already lost.

Ulquiorra: “Dibs” were respected.

Grimmjow: They were not!

Grimmjow: Dibs don’t end just ‘cause a fight is lost! DIBS ARE FOREVER

Ulquiorra: Well, seeing as I am dead, I think I can promise not to fight Kurosaki Ichigo again before you do.

Grimmjow: Victory!

8. Shutara

Grimmjow: Hey. Clothing woman. I hear you make clothes.

Grimmjow: I want the coolest outfit you can make.

Shutara: What? Cooler than your one piece with two useless belts?

Grimmjow: It might be hard, I know, but - 

Grimmjow: …

Grimmjow: Wait were you being sarcastic?

Shutara: Oh just take off your clothes.

9. Ginjo

Grimmjow: Look. Kurosaki killed you. I just want to know how.

Ginjo: He stabbed me.

Grimmjow: No! I want to know how you got him to be SERIOUS!

Ginjo: I destroyed his life and targeted his friends.

Grimmjow: Huh. You know, I think Ulquiorra did that too.

Grimmjow: Hashtag, goals!

Ginjo: You really just figured this out?

10. Orihime

Grimmjow: I want you to use your shield powers.

Orihiime: Hmmm? For what?

Grimmjow: When I fight Kurosaki, you use your shield powers to make sure no one interrupts us.

Grimmjow: Because I swear to kittens, my fights always seem to get freakin’ interrupted!

Orihime: Grimmjow, come on. I’m not going to stand there and watch my friend die.

Grimmjow: Ha! So you know I’m stronger!!

Orihime: I meant watch you die.

Grimmjow: I’M NOT  YOUR - I’M NOT GOING TO - WAIT WHAT’S GOING ON

Orihime: Too easy.

11. Kyoraku

Grimmjow: Let me use your death ring.

Kyoraku: My what?

Grimmjow: That place you sent Kenpachi and Unohana for their fight to the death.

Grimmjow: I want to use it.

Kyoraku: For what?

Grimmjow: For ballet - what do you think??

Kyoraku: You’d make a great dancer!

Grimmjow: Do you not understand sarcasm?

12. Ichigo

Grimmjow: Kurosaki, for your favor to me - just give me a hug.

Ichigo: Really??

Grimmjow: No, you moron, we’re gonna fight to the death in Kyoraku’s death ring!

Grimmjow: IT’S GONNA BE FREAKIN’ AWESOME

Ichigo: …

Ichigo: I really shouldn’t be surprised.

Again, war isn't genocide. It's been a hot minute (hehehe get it, hot) since I've read the Blood War so I maybe mistaken but didn't the Soul Society offer to work with the Quincies the same way Uryu does with Kisuke now? If they refused then that's on them. If the same goes for modern day then that's also on them.

That's kinda part of the whole samurai/knight schtick. Making oaths, vows, and promises to uphold _____ (fill in the blank). That's who Byakuya is, a samurai that puts his honor and duties first and family second. Now whichever vow is the right one he should have upholded is subjective. That's why Ichigo is the hero, because he would have kept both vows and he taught Byakuya that it is possible to uphold both.

I understand that. But Gin made the decision. I have what I like to call a 'Flash perspective' on this. The Flash believes on redemption. I believe that Gin redeemed himself when he attempted to kill Aizen. Does that mean that his previous wrongs should be instantly forgiven? No but I do think he is justified, for the most part, on his doings. It's another reason why I wish Gin, along with Kaname, had lived to see the Blood War arc. Would've been one hell of a redemption arc.

Aizen is just going to be there. For like ever.

True enough.

We'll just have to agree to disagree on this one.

That is abusive but the thing with Ulquiorra's character is that he had no free will. He did all that he did to Orihime on Aizen's orders because he underdeveloped when it comes to emotions and free will. That's why his aspect of death is emptiness. He doesn't know what the difference between right and wrong is, he just follows orders. That's why his character is tragic. By the time he realized what it meant to be human, and to have emotions, he was dying. His life was ripped away before he even had the chance to consider redemption.

So does Ichigo throwing his dad out his window count as elder abuse? And I still don't see how Ryūken is abusive. He just said some mean things about Uryu wanting to be a Quincy. A bad relationship with a parent doesn't automatically equal abuse.

True enough on all counts.

I honestly have no idea. As far as I know all they're good for is producing a Captain or a Lieutenant every now and then.

You got me there. My best guess is that he stubbornly wanted to fight Aizen on his terms. And by then it would've been an absolute fodder stomp in Aizen's favor. Especially if Aizen decided to pull out that bankai he's been hiding. If it's anything like I theorize it could be then yeah, it would be a stomp. Though by then he probably would've evolved beyond comprehension so he probably wouldn't even need it.

No being faithful isn't inherently good. But he's not a bad person either. He just has no tolerance for those who are enemies of the Soul Society, an organization he's worked for over a 1000 years. He was compassionate to his allies, and hard on his enemies. He's not good, nor is he bad. He's a soldier.

Byakuya is based on the classic samurai. Being a samurai he's all about honor. He made an oath on his parents' grave which is an oath you strive to honor no matter what. Personally, I think he unconsciously threw the fight with Ichigo so Rukia would be saved and his oath would be kept. I still find it hard to believe that Ichigo during SS could defeat Byakuya.

Mayuri is an interesting character because he's a bad person. No argument there.

Gin is the classic 'you hurt my woman so I'm gonna kill your ass' type character. Let's be honest though, his encounter with Rukia was just put in to make us believe he was the villain. My guess is that he's either not fond of the Kuchiki family, or did it to save face knowing that Aizen was probably watching him.

Aizen can't be killed. He's like Doomsday with genius intellect. And that chair of his had the adverse effect of making him stronger. Even Ywhach the most powerful being in their universe couldn't kill him so good luck with that.

Szayal is literally the same thing as Mayuri. He's just as likely to be good as he is bad. He's a mad man.

Nnoitra is a very complex situation. When it boils down to it, he needed an ass beating and a therapist.

Ulquiorra was just as likely to be good as he was bad. He was a lonely Vasto Lorde who lacked the ability to talk and was an outcast even among his own kind. Imagine how different his situation would have been if he'd run into Kisuke instead of Aizen. He was abusive, but not intentionally so. If he was then he would've beaten Orihime within an inch of her life when she slapped him. He's like a person who never developed properly as a child and I think he was intentionally written in that way. He was a tragic character, nothing more and nothing less.

Isshin and Ryuuken weren't abusive. Isshin taught Ichigo martial arts the hard way so that when is powers awakened he could defend himself easier. Ryuuken tried to turn Uryu away from the Quincy lifestyle because of all the pain it brought him. He didn't want his son being a Quincy because he knew it would be a hard and dangerous life. He wanted what he thought was best. Which is a little unwarranted because according to Ywhach, Uryu is technically the strongest character in Bleach.

I dunno who the homophobe is. If the original poster is talking about Tsunayashiro then yeah fuck him. He's done a lot worse things than homophobia. Like having his own clan members killed then killing the assassins themselves. Abusing Hikone. And killing his wife, then nearly crippling her best friend Kaname. I wish Kaname had a redemption arc for the Blood War but I really wish he had one now. I would've loved to have seen him beat Tsunayashiro's ass. I don't know what Tsunayashiro's zanpaktou does but between bankai, hollowfication, and resureccion (all together a 30x boost) he should be plenty powerful enough to beat Tokinada Tsunayashiro's ass.

War isn't genocide. And in all honesty you could argue that Ywhach did nothing wrong. They may have resembled Nazis but they obviously weren't since they allowed colored people, that one dude that Kenpachi killed in like 0.2 seconds who was probably gay (Sternwritter Q the Question I think), and Giselle who is probably transgender according to Yumichika and Charlotte Coollhorne. (Probably butchered that dudes name but oh well.)

Ginjo did have beef with the Soul Society but he needed Ichigo's powers to take them on because he wasn't strong enough by himself. A weak motive but there is something else to consider. Ginjo probably resented Ichigo because Ichigo and his friends are accepted and even honored among the Soul Society and by Ukitake while Ginjo, and his friends were betrayed. Doesn't justify but it makes it easier to understand why he did it.

The nobles are assholes but it really isn't their job to take care of the Rukon district. It doesn't matter though, most of Central 46 has been replaced after the Blood War and according to Captain Commander Kyorako, conditions have improved significantly along with relations with Hueco Mundo.

Ichibei isn't a superhero. It's not his job to crash down from the Soul Palace into the middle of the battle field and take on Ywhach head on. His job is to protect Soul King Reio. Ironically he failed at that too, but at least he tried. And it's because of him and Squad 0 that Ichigo got as strong as he did. They also saved Rukia, Renji, and Byakuya. In truth he didn't even have to do any of that. But again, not really his job.

*Breathes in* *Exhales* Here. We. Go.

If this Yamamoto thing if for the whole Save Rukia arc then just behr in mind that Yama has faithfully served the Soul Society for over a 1000 years. He's not about to tear down his legacy for a single turncoat Shinigami. Keep in mind that he didn't know her personally so as far as he was concerned, she was just another bad apple.

Byakuya redeemed himself multiple times. The whole Rukia execution thing was brought on by a conflict of oaths. Your hatred it unjustified.

Mayuri is a terrible person. No way around that. His one saving grace is restoring Toshiro, Kenpachi, and the Vizards

Love does crazy things to a man. Gin is no exception. If killing a few nameless Soul Reapers was what it takes to kill a super genius, all powerful, turncoat Soul Reaper then so be it. Gin becoming a traitor to kill Aizen and protect/avenge Rangiku is justified.

Aizen is a pretty bad guy, but he's pretty much already been stripped of his rights.

Szayelapporo (spelled that right on my first try) is insane. Just put him on medication.

Nnoitora is the way he is because he hates himself. He's angry because he hates himself. His situation is a complicated one.

Ulquiorra is also complicated. He doesn't even understand the concept of emotion. The first real emotion he's ever felt was love, and heartbreak. Love when he realizes his feelings towards Orihime. Then heartbreak when he dies knowing that her power could save him but she doesn't because she knew he would continue fighting Ichigo. She chose Ichigo over him and he had to die knowing that. Sorry mate, I'm gonna have to give him a free pass.

Isshin is a creepy father but that's all a cover for his Shinigami side which is his true self. Ryuuken did what he thought was good for Uryu. He didn't want his son to prance around the city at night in a goofy white outfit fighting monster when he could be cut down by a Soul Reaper any moment. He wanted his son to have a normal, and prosperous life. Nothing wrong with that.

Don't know what homophobe you're talking about. I've been reading CFYOW and I have no idea who you're talking about.

The Quincies had it rough. Most of them are guilty of nothing more than being on the losing side of a war. Even some of the worse ones are victims of past trauma. That doesn't excuse their actions but it does mean that they need help. #YwhachDidNothingWrong

Ginjo maybe an asshole, but he's guilty of nothing more than wanting justice for his friends deaths.

Central 46 are assholes. Idk why you hate the nobles for, they're pretty irrelevant (except for Tsunayashiro, Shiba, and Kuchiki).

Literally no idea what Ichibei did.

I know I took this entirely too seriously but eh, whatever.
