He needed a quick way to get from point A-B while still trying to contain the unbelievable levels of power Aizen had reached, and thus Mugetsu was born. A cheap way to finish Aizen and move Ichigo on to his next arc, completely disregarding the whole idea of Ichigo getting strong enough to beat Aizen on his own, or find the ture weakness of Kyouka Suigetsu. I agree. I think the final battle between Aizen and Ichigo should have been longer and not as one-sided. However, I suppose Ichigo DID get strong enough to defeat Aizen on his own. He exchanged his reiatsu for strength, and was stronger than Aizen. Therefore, Ichigo's reiatsu is greater than Aizen's. At least, I think so. The manga's not really clear about a lot of things (ex: shinigami aging, what happens when souls die).

he didn't exchange his reiastu for strength, that was just a theory made by aizen because refused to believe that ichigo had surpassed him.

Really? I didn't know that. Maybe Mugetsu will be explained later. RandomOtaku (talk) 20:38, November 11, 2014 (UTC) Yeah later in the fight aizen states that he himself must lower his spiritual pressure to others awareness due to his being so high. He then starts to think ichigo has become such an op person that he now needs to do it to aizen
