Update already

Well, I suppose theres a few lessons Ichigo can take away from this. One, Ukitake (Captains in general really) isn't always right. I understand pride is important to the soul reapers, but they put way too much value on it over life. Ukitake helped ensure Kaiens death, when Ichigo stepping in with a Getsuga could've done the job, or at least crippled metastacia long enough. Two, life over pride (Simple enough.) And obviously hes likely to be a lot more keen on ignoring certain orders and rules after this.

Blacklisted users can still read the story, they just can't review and PM. I somewhat understand the point, but then again. I think, personally, it just would've been better if Ichigo didn't go because, again, nothing changed. Instead of having the last chapter and a half be an event that was essentially exactly how it happened in canon with the fight being a bit different due to Ichigo, I feel it would've been better if Ichigo were having his own segment. Perhaps he gets over himself and speaks to Byakuya about the fourth division incident? Though it's super late, and personally I feel he should've said something sooner to clear the air for later just in case. Or perhaps if enough people want to go the vizard route, that could've been what happened the last chapter and a half, or at the least the start of it through Aizen. I'm essentially saying I just feel it would've been better if Ichigo did something more productive for the readers and the story, as all WE did is read a alternate version of the event with the same conclusion.

First, this immediately made me think of when Shunsui stabbed Aizen in the back, and Stark for that matter. It's like a discount version, though without the general drawbacks of it being a game that everyone involved needs to know of. Second, seems I was completely right. So far we've had one major event from canon happen, and Ichigo was fairly worthless. You could've completely removed him from the scenario and you would've achieved the same result. Rukia would likely just be more depressed. You don't need Ichigo to be there for Kaiens death for it to affect him and for him and Rukia to start pushing to the next step. Ichigo hearing about what would've happened, knowing what Kaien lost, that would've motivated him to figure his shit out. It simply feels mostly pointless to have him if hes not going to make any difference.

Yay. So imma just guess that we get to witness Kaien die again and Ichigo changes almost nothing. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Yeah, the hollow sounds like a certain Vasto Lorde Ulquiorra. But I know it isn't, otherwise he wouldn't A, be in the world of the living, or B, he would've wiped the floor with Ichigo.

Minor mistake. Ichigo shouldn't know what autism even is. If I remember right it wasn't even properly diagnosed till the 90's or early 2000's. If Ichigo was born and died say, 50 to a hundred years early, he'd never know what it was.

Well, to be fair there were more creative ways to use Zangetsu, Ichigo just didn't often. Swinging the blade around by its cloth is a factor on it's own that can be used for a completely devastating close range strike, a powerful mid range attack (Though Getsuga could handle that) and it could even be a different way to discharge Getsuga. A circling Zangetsu above his head while shooting off a Getsuga to create a Getsuga wall for example to push away enemies.

Renjis tattoos were likely just a design choice. As for Kido, well, can't really say he sucked at it considering he never could've learned it with Old Man Zangetsu, and even then he never tried to learn it.

Meh, you mostly got the shinigami encounter right. The only difference is he knew weren't exactly hungry and they were just reacting to feeling his spirit energy.

Can you continue this story it has been 4 years

don't listen to the naysayers... PLEASE! continuing this, as your own story!

It's a crime not continuing this after coming so far

Yeah you're stupid. Sorry to say it, but that was waay out of character for Ukitake. The second things got lethal, pride be damned, he should've stepped in. And I think he would've. Now if his coughing fit happened there, then boom, same shit. Except Kaien would've been mad and then we'd have a CHARACTER ARC

Please tell me people finally recognize Ichigo as Kaien's look alike and determine familiar connections! I want shiba ichigo (swinging pendulum spoiled me)
