I said later on that as long as someone has equal strength to Yama or like you said a very strong defensive zanpakuto they can be somewhat near his Bankai or out right guard against it, but then you get the irresistible force paradox.

While Toshiro's Bankai is the strongest ice type, that really not saying much its Ice still even if its powerful. Toshiro can control the weather to and extent but really Yama's bankai is really unique. I can't think of another bankai that is....how should i put this..as primal in terms of power and ability. Most bankai are weapons, forms, even'ts. Yamas is just fire, he controls soul of flame to a much greater extent then Toshiro. I would say the only bankai that could match it would be Kaien Shiba bankai would of been if he never died. Because his Zanpakuto is like Yamas just a water version.
