Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Zangetsu (Slaying Moon): This is the name of his Zanpakutō. After Zangetsu is reforged by Ōetsu Nimaiya, Ichigo gains access to his true Zanpakutō. His actual Zanpakutō takes the form of two separate, purely black, blades. One is the shape of a khyber knife (like his previous Shikai), and the second blade is relatively small, about the size of Ichigo's arm, and is similar to the first blade, but resembles a trench knife more than a sword. Both blades represent a different facet of Ichigo's powers: the larger blade represents his inner Hollow (the manifestation of his Shinigami/Hollow powers) and the smaller blade represents 'the old man' (the manifestation of his Quincy powers).
Ichigo is a stubborn man who won't give up on fighting even when seriously injured and near-death, at one point fighting against Zangetsu within the Dangai for 3 months Range: Extended melee range, further with the shockwaves of his attacks, Hundreds of Meters to Kilometers with Getsuga Tenshō, at least Kilometers with Mugetsu.

- Getsuga Tenshō (Moon Fang Heaven-Piercer): Fires a blast of reiatsu that can take multiple forms, strong enough to cut a large swath through the ground several meters wide and dozens of meters long. His Shikai uses the original GT, while Hollow Ichigo and Vaizard Ichigo both have upgraded versions of this. He can use variations of this such as in blade lock or can attach the Getsuga Tenshō to his sword to amplify his striking power. His Hollow form showed the ability to change their directions. He can also put all his power into one attack.
| He will spam this ink, forever :skully |
- Getsuga Jjuuji-Shou: Ichigo fires off a cross-shaped blast of reitasu.
How Long Was Ichigo In The Dangai
When Ichigo activates his Bankai, his spiritual power surges, with the smoke obscuring his being. It is considered completely out of the ordinary for any Zanpakutō. Unlike most Bankai forms, which usually create some sort of massive creature or effect, Ichigo's Bankai actually shrinks his sword down to a daitō (Japanese long sword) with a black blade instead. Ichigo's robe is replaced with a long-sleeved, ankle-length black coat (or shihakushō) with red lining that is closed at his chest, then left to flare out into ragged ends, much like that of Zangetsu himself. This coat is part of Ichigo's Bankai and the damage it can take is directly proportionate to the remaining strength and level of Ichigo's reiatsu.- Dangai Bankai: After his training in the Dangai, Ichigo's Bankai takes on a slightly different appearance. While Zangetsu still takes the form of a daitō with a black blade, the four prongs on the crossguard extend out farther than they previously did. Ichigo's right hand becomes covered by a black glove and the chain at the base of Zangetsu's hilt extends out further than it previously did, spiraling up the length of his sleeveless right arm with the additional portion of the chain hanging down freely from his upper arm.
- Fullbring Bankai: After influenced by the remaining traces of Ichigo's Fullbring, the appearance of his Bankai changes. He wears a white undershirt beneath his black shihakushō, which is now open. Ichigo wears black gloves with white 'x'-shaped marks appear on both the gloves and his forearms. Tensa Zangetsu's blade is now much longer and more curved as it nears the tip, with three protrusions along the blunt end of the sword close to its tip. While retaining its manji-like shape, the tsuba becomes more curved and jagged. Tensa Zangetsu's chain is now longer, attaching to both the base of the sword's hilt and to Ichigo's glove, forming a wide loop.
- Bankai Special Abilities: Tensa Zangetsu, much like its Shikai form, is used heavily for melee combat, but also possess certain special abilities.
- Kuroi Getsuga (Black Moon Fang): When used in Bankai, these potent blasts are black with a red outline and their path can be controlled, with augmented power and speed. Ichigo can also keep Getsuga Tenshō within Tensa Zangetsu to augment his sword swings.
- Enhanced Speed: Ichigo takes all the power of his Bankai and compresses it into a small, condensed form which greatly augments his physical speed and also enhances his Shunpo prowess.
- Enhanced Strength: Ichigo's Bankai also further enhance his natural great strength.
- Saigo no Getsuga Tenshō (The Final Moon Fang Heaven-Piercer): By using this technique, Ichigo becomes the Getsuga (Moon Fang) itself. It is referred to as the “Final” Getsuga Tenshō because if Ichigo uses it, he loses all of his Shinigami powers. For the duration of the ability, Ichigo’s hair turns black, and becomes waist length. In this form, Ichigo’s body constantly emits smoky black reiatsu, most of which is focused around his right arm. Being in this form allows Ichigo to use Mugetsu. Once it is used, the transformation dissipates, in which he will then lose consciousness accompanied by intense pain with the loss of his Shinigami powers following.That superior ink form :skully
- Mugetsu (Moonless Sky): Ichigo generates a blade of deep black spiritual energy in his hand and swings it towards the target. Doing so causes a massive veil of black spiritual energy to erupt upwards and approach the target, darkening the sky, and heavily damaging anything caught within the blast
- Zanjutsu (Art of the Sword): The fighting style for the Zanpakutō, (i.e. sword fighting) and is one of the four basic fighting styles of the Shinigami.
- Hakuda (Hand-to-Hand Combat): A close-combat martial art of fighting in which one is unarmed and uses only one's body, and is one of the four basic fighting styles of the Shinigami.
How Old Is Dangai Ichigo
- Shunpo: Superspeed technique which propels the user across short distances at enhanced speeds.
- Blut (Blood): By making Reishi flow directly into their blood vessels, users of this technique can drastically increase their attack and defense power. However, Blut possesses one major flaw: because the independent forms of the technique for attack and defense operate using two different Reishi systems, they cannot be employed simultaneously
- Blut Vene (Blood Vein): The defensive form of Blut, which grants the user enhanced durability. This power can also be used to aid the user against critical wounds that have already been inflicted, able to stop the severe loss of blood that would be caused by said wound.
Former Powers & Abilities (it is currently unknown if Ichigo can still utilize these)
- Hollowfication:
- Hollow Mask: His hollow side partially takes control and a hollow mask appears on his face, significantly augmenting his power, which can be used in conjunction with his Bankai. At first he could only maintain this for 11 seconds but recently he can hold it for longer, up to minutes at a time.
- Full Hollow Form: In this form, he takes the shape of a reptilian Hollow with huge power. Its reiatsu is constantly leaking through its sword in the form of Getsuga Tenshō and its Cero made trained Vaizards flee from the battlefield
- Humanoid Hollow Form (also called Hollow Form 2, or H2): His second hollow form, which is more humanoid and greatly stronger than the previous form. He easily stopped Ulquiorra's Lanza Del Relampago in this form, and his own Cero was on an even higher level of power than said attack.
- Cero: The Hollow ability to unleash an energy blast, it consists of firing a powerful blast of concentrated spiritual energy at the target
- Fullbring (Full Manifestation Art): A special ability that allows the user to manipulate the 'soul' of matter for a variety of effects. When a Fullbringer dies, all traces of their ability will disappear.
- Soul Manipulation: Fullbring can be used for a variety of different things. Fullbring users can perform feats such as pulling out the soul of a drink to have it help him drink it, pulling the soul out of the asphalt to make it more elastic or even be able to walk on water or air by pulling on its soul to solidify it.
- Bringer Light (Full Manifestation Light): A technique that allows him to increase his speed and the height of his jumps by pulling on the soul of the concrete or air.
- Object Affinity: If a Fullbringer has a particular affinity to an object, then Fullbring can be used to alter that object's form. This affinity is defined by one's love for the object, or simply by an overall fondness for it. In Ichigo's case, it was his Substitute Shinigami badge.

The Ichigo Bankai sword, a faithful but purely decorative replica of the extremely long bladed Nodachi seen in the popular anime series Bleach, is an interesting piece.
True enough, due to its length, it is extremely unwieldy and while historically there were some extremely long Japanese swords like this one, they were almost always used for ceremonial purposes, being simply too long to be of any real practical use.
In this hands on review, we will take a closer look at this sword, identifying strengths and weaknesses and letting you decide if it is something you want to spend your hard earned money on.
Ichigo Bankai Sword Review
Review by SBG Editor in Chief, Paul Southren
The Ichigo Bankai Sword has at least two things going for it: it's amazing length/size and its price point (often available for just under $50).
I simply cannot over-emphasize how BIG this sword really is - so here is an image to give you some idea, comparing it at the tsuba (hand-guard) of a standard length Katana.
Two things become immediately apparent. It is almost TWICE as long as a standard Katana, and has a considerably straighter blade than a standard Japanese sword, though still has some curvature as you can see below.
A typical Japanese sword has a length from the tip to the tsuba of around 27-29'. The Ichigo Bankai sword, on the other hand, measures in at a whopping 49' (48' nagasa, as Japanese swords are traditionally measured from the back notch of the blade collar to the tip).
Another thing that sets it apart from most other swords is the black power coated finish and lack of a temper line/hamon - imitation or otherwise. That and the fact that it is actually made of 1045 carbon steel, as confirmed by a simple magnet test.
But if you have read our basic guide to to the difference between functional and decorative swords, you will know just because a sword is made from carbon steel does not mean it is a battle ready blade. It also needs to be tempered, and full tang at the very least, and the Ichigo Bankai sword ticks only one of the three boxes as is immediately apparent by how the blade sags slightly under its own weight when held horizontally.
For under fifty bucks, this really is no huge surprise - the cost of tempering such a blade would easily triple or quadruple the price. And as it is not marketed as 'battle ready' is no big deal. Ihi 17ne manual transmission.
The edge is, as expected, unsharpened. Being made from carbon steel, it could theoretically be sharpened if so desired, but it is not a good idea due to the lack of tempering.
While very long, the blade is not very wide or thick and is essentially machine stamped from a sheet of steel, powder coated and then assembled to the fittings.
That said, it still LOOKS quite impressive and, if well mounted on a wall or carried to a cosplay convention, garners some attention.
The Hilt
The tsuba is cast zinc aluminium and not very strong, but was well fitted. True to the anime, it is not - as some might suspect, a nazi swaztika, but an ancient Buddhist symbol commonly seen at temples and holy sites througout East Asia.
One thing I really did like about the Ichigo Bankai sword was the habaki (blade collar) which fits the blade and tsuba assembly quite snugly and is quite ornate, with flower patterns and lines.
Like the blade itself, the tsuka (handle) is oversized, approx 16' long and - unlike the blade itself and the rat tail tang inside, actually feels quiet solid.
Wrapped with the cheapest rayon ito over red, sythnetic rayskin, it will win no prizes for aesthetics or functionality and was clearly done quickly in a non traditional way (traditional ito alternates in the way it is tied).
The 'diamond' shape of the wrap is quite uneven in many areas, though is quite tight.
A small, brass 'menuki' ornament is a nice touch, and seems to be of a Koi fish, at least as far as I can tell.
The complete lack of mekugi pegs, which are traditionally used as brakes keeping the handle in place, clearly shows that it was never meant to be disassembled and is fairly typical on a purely decorative piece with a hidden (rat tail) tang.
True to the original Ichigo Bankai sword, the hilt assembly is completed by a length of blackened chain attached to the end cap which feels a bit fragile, but will stay on if treated gently and not caught on something.
Overall, especially when you consider the price point and its purpose, there is nothing really 'wrong' with this replica so far. And for display or cosplay purposes, as long as it is handled carefully, it achieves it stated goal as an interesting, decorative piece.
However, the somewhat 'floppy' blade made me wonder exactly just how far the Ichigo Bankai sword could hold up to a little use, even if it was just to swing around like in the anime series.
So I geared up with a little face protection and planned a few basic tests.
My main concern was that if this sword was swung in earnest, the rat tail tang would snap and the blade would come flying out. Considering it is not very thick or very sharp, it would - at least - not be the infamous 'flying helicopter of death' but it is still obviously not something that you want to happen.
So I decided to give it a good shake from side to side to see:
A) If the hilt assembly would hold and
B) What the tempering (or lack of it) would do.
The result? Well, it speaks for itself.
As you can see, the tempering failed surprisingly early. Just one swing and it is almost bent to 90 degrees (luckily, it is easy to straighten out).
So in conclusion.
It is a pretty faithful replica of the Ichigo Bankai Sword. It is cheap, it LOOKS very impressive - but it does not come even close to anything more than a purely decorative piece.
While still good value for money, the fact that it cannot even be swung once without folding in upon itself is a pretty serious limitation. But at least, it is quite safe.
