Talk:Kōga Kuchiki

Profile Picture
The current profile picture is just a place holder until we get a shot of what he actually looks like. It will be replaced whenever (and if ever) we get a proper image of him. --Yyp 16:59, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

What do people think of the picture on the right replacing the current picture? The current picture has a lot of noise with the lighting and stuff, so I thought that this new one would be better. Tinni 17:54, December 16, 2009 (UTC)


 * No lightning, face forward, entire head is shown, includes red braids(speaking of which y doesn't Rukia have Kuchiki braids, she would look so much cooler). Overall I don't see y anyone would disagree with that image replacing the current one. Minato  (Talk)  18:01, December 16, 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm all for that one. The lightning in the background is really annoying. This one seems pretty good. -- Yyp  (Talk)  18:02, December 16, 2009 (UTC)

Very well, I will go ahead and made the change. I did change the image slightly, cropping it and making sure more of his necklace was showing. Tinni 18:26, December 16, 2009 (UTC)

Zanpakutō and its abilities
I've added Yamamoto's description of Muramasa's powers from ep248. And his Bankai is "not achieved" until proven otherwise. Do not change it. --Yyp 16:59, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

The only reason I said it was `unknown` was because it was originally spelled `Unkown`. I don't know why, but it did. Glacial Blaze 21:41, December 13, 2009 (UTC)

How sure are you that it was not achieved, he said whisper first, and then a similar name like how Ichigo releases that materializes Muramasa, versus the other one just turns the blade itself against the owner. I do believe he has bankai (although it was never directly confirmed). -Des


 * sigh why must we keep having this conversation. Once again, the default setting for all non-gotei 13 captain level shinigami is that "bankai: not achieved". Shinigami who are or were captains of the Gotei 13 (i.e. have the haori) have a default setting of "bankai: not revealed" unless they are explicitly stated to not having achieved it like Kenpachi. Koga was not a Gotei 13 captain at any point in time. Therefore, his bankai status is and will remain "not achieved" until proven otherwise. Tinni 04:59, December 16, 2009 (UTC)

I know this wasn't officially stated, but it seems to me that Muramasa is a kido-base zanpakuto. I think that should be added to Koga's page.Steveo920 18:45, December 16, 2009 (UTC)

For a long time now when I said that Muramasa's sword was the size of a wakizashi on his page, no one changed it. In fact, Muramasa's page still says it is a wakizashi. So why is it now only Koga's page says it is the size of a standard katana. When Muramasa first showed his sword, it appeared fairly short. Steveo920 19:10, December 16, 2009 (UTC)

If you watch ep250 again, you will see that his sword is of similar length to that of all the shinigami he fights. It is not a wakizashi in its sealed state. I did think it was shorter when Muramasa had it, but in 250, that is plainly not the case. -- Yyp  (Talk)  00:14, December 17, 2009 (UTC)

Koga's sword only looked alittle smaller with him, because Muramasa is shorter. still, its not a wakizashi. Gin's sword is a wakizashi. Minato (Talk)  00:18, December 17, 2009 (UTC)

In which case it could be a Kodachi, which is a sword that is just a little bit smaller then a katana (also tends to be more defense) -Des

Is it possible that Muramasa's design was influenced by Code Geass? The guard has the symbol used in Code Geass, not to mention that Muramasa is able to control other Zanpakuto. --LOL.its.Neotails 21:14, December 23, 2009 (UTC)

Koga's Relationship with Other Members
The only confirmed relationship is Ginrei. Do not say that any other member of the Kuchiki family is so-and-so just yet until it is confirmed by someone in the next few episodes. --Gold3263301 07:04, December 16, 2009 (UTC)

Bankai
The last I checked, Koga didn't say "bankai" when he used his "Yūkōjōchū Muramasa" ability. Until he does or says something that indicates that was a bankai, that's just a shikai ability. Tinni 11:58, December 16, 2009 (UTC)

History Picture
I think overall this is a better picture for his history section as it shows all his features from a better angle, plus there's a shot of muramasa in it as well as his usual expression at the time Grimmjow2 13:21, December 19, 2009 (UTC)

Shikai Command
The last version listed the plain form of the word "whisper", sasayaku. Koga is clearly heard using the imperative form, sasayake, to release Muramasa's Shikai. I have edited the section and kana accordingly.
