Just wanted to test my little idea of how everything is going on with ichigo. It has been stated in recent manga that "Hollow Ichigo" is in fact Zangetsu. Re-watching the non-filler anime I recall now this part of the conversation. Ichigo: "Where is Ol' man Zangetsu" Hollow Ichigo: "I am Zangetsu!" The Ol'man Zangetsu's physical form is just a physical representation of juha bach from 1000 years ago. He is ichigo's Quincy power.

So where a lot of people get confused at is how did "Ol' man zangetsu teach ichigo a bankai, OGT and FGT? If you recall correctly you will remember Hollow ichigo saying that they are the same being (They even fused together at one point). So is it really that odd that Ol'man Zangetsu can teach ichigo these abilities? Isshin is ichigo's father. So, even tho they do NOT have the same sword, some of the abilities are the same.

White invaded ichigos Shinigami powers (the one with Getsuga ect) and became one with him. Ichigos mother was a quincy- so his shinigami powers and quincy powers were probably the same being as well considering that Hollow ichigo and his quincy powers are (ol man zangetsu). Hollow ichigo= shinigami powers+White.

As we all know Rukia just lent him some spiritual power at the start- not realizing he had his own. his own power awakened as a result of the attack of Byakuya and Renji.

All feedback is more then welcome- share your ideas!
