Forum:Specifics about Gigai's

<I'm a sim admin for a alternate universe Bleach RPG in Second Life. For most things our admins are a collective of Bleach fans that all have specialized areas of expertise in terms of how to convert the Bleach universe to a role playing format. But we have come across a question that we simply cannot find an answer to within Bleach Wikia. Which we consider our Book of Gospel that decides all arguements for us lol.

We are at a point where our Visored's need gigai's and have figured out how to explain how we came to create them. We've figured out how long it would take to build the tanks and the computerized control console, how long to cultivate cell batches. But the one crucial detail we can't find is just how long does it take to make a gigai from embryo to full grown usable?

Any input on where in the cannon this may be metioned would be extremely helpful. Or a best guess would also suffice in lieu of lack of specifics mentioned in the anime or manga. Thank you in advance any and all that help us solve this delimma. ScarletteSpiderScarletteSpider (talk) 02:17, September 30, 2012 (UTC) -->

over a hundred players are waiting and cannot move forward with role play as this is posted until we can get input on this question please.


 * The best answer given is speculative at best. Gigai are not explained in great detail within the series. The only time frame we have is given by Urahara, a obvious expert in the creation of gigai technology. He created reiatsu blocking gigai within 20 hours. Thats obviously with standard gigai that were already created and then making them work a specific way (reiatsu blocking). Gigai are by and large scientific creations, as they are reminiscent of a actual body but no more then a husk outside of the soul/shinigami within it. The Invasion Arc (anime filler) involved the creation of reigai which were created using the same original concept of the gigai technology. Some were shown in liquid tanks others laying on tables. They are therefore grown or assembled. I would tend to believe they are assembled from scratch and then placed in the tank but as i said its speculative at best. If to give a span of time for the creation of a standard gigai, takin into the account the growth of such materials to mimic a actual body and at adult size i would guess a matter of months and then you have to take into account assembly and testing to see if it works properly. Its possibly 12 months. Again entirely speculative.--
