Talk:Zangetsu (Zanpakutō spirit)

Personality
Shouldn't we mention that he became somewhat calmer, despite his destructive nature? He was shown to be protective of Ichigo's important persons, to a certain extent. He protected Inoue from Ulquiorra (but stabbed Ishida), and saved Yuzu from Kokutō in the Hell, as well as taking a direct hit for Rukia from Yushima's attack in the latest anime arc. -- The Goblin   Talk  14:44, September 27, 2011 (UTC)

Zanpakutō powers
It seems that a big part of his Zanpakutō powers was copied from Ichigo's page, and then a bit edited. I'm aware that they use the same Zanpakutō, and that some of its features displayed by Ichigo can be mentioned on this page. When I began to reference this copied text, I noticed it includes a small part of references which are present on Ichigo's page. If you do not mind, I'd like to add the rest of references and to edit bankai part so that includes more of Hichigo's bankai features. -- The Goblin   Talk  04:23, December 12, 2011 (UTC)


 * That sounds fine. Sadly in the old days people copied and pasted info without checking (or caring) that it is written about someone else and not taking the time to make it about the character whose page they were adding it to. 11:30, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

It should be noted that hollow ichigo and his zanpakuto can arguably be one in the same. They show this when he is training before defeating Aizen. Hollow ichigo is in some ways a extension of his zanpakuto's abilities, a point break of sorts. He only shows up when Ichigo is near death/defeat and seems to have complete access to Ichigos riatsu and abilities.

 * It is well established that Zangetsu and Hollow Ichigo are two parts of the same being. 11:30, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

I'm still working on article, but I have a few questions I'd like to ask. H.Ichigo caught a zanpakuto's blade with his hand several times and didn't get cut. Should we count this as enhanced durability? Also, I can't find a corresponding reference for his enhanced speed in the first hollow form. The closest would be when he jumps quickly on Lisa  and heads toward Kensei. However, he was also in bankai state at the time, which would make him faster than normal. So, I'm not sure whether to leave it unreferenced or to delete it. -- The Goblin   Talk  20:18, February 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * I've found an anime reference for his speed. -- The Goblin   Talk  20:41, February 16, 2012 (UTC)

Well, I finished what I could do. The paragraph about his spiritual energy in bankai still needs an overhaul, because it mainly focuses on Ichigo. -- The Goblin   Talk   02:46, February 29, 2012 (UTC)

I shortened the mentioned paragraph and added some new info. -- The Goblin   Talk   02:22, March 21, 2012 (UTC)

First holow form secound version
 Notice the mask it's different. Permision to add. Ultimatex (talk) 20:56, December 16, 2011 (UTC)

The image lacks a rationale and violates the Bleach Wiki:Image Policy, and that form of Hollow Ichigo is non canon and therefore holds no place to be placed on his profile other than the filler arc itself. Plus, please place your messages at the bottom of the talk page, not the top. --Cathal O'Hara <font color="yellow" size="1px">(Talk)  21:02, December 16, 2011 (UTC)

<p style="border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: normal;">Should i add it in the Gotei 13 Invading Army arc Ultimatex (talk) 20:58, December 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * As Cathal said, the image has no legal tagging and until it has that it cannot go anywhere. As for the suggested location, there is very little text there and there are already two pictures in that section. There isn't room for it. 17:00, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

Enhanced Cero gif


Should we replace the picture of his cero with this animation because his first form has it, should the second have it. Ultimatex (talk) 01:30, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

White Ichigo
When was the Hollow form of Ichigo ever refered to as white ichigo??

This name is what readers/viewers call him to simplify his naming and should not be on the WIKI as if it's an official reference. If by chance I'm wrong then please give a reference to this naming or get rid of his alias'.

Irkillroy (talk) 04:30, December 24, 2011 (UTC)


 * I have no idea where that is from, but if it is called that in an official source, then it is most likely a video game that calls him that. 11:30, December 24, 2011 (UTC)


 * In Unmasked he is referred as White Ichigo (page 156, 白一護) and Ichigo Kurosaki (page 150, 黒崎 一護). --<font style="background: black" face="Courier" color="white"> The Goblin  <font style="background: white" face="Courier" color="black"> Talk   11:46, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

Then can we get those references put in on the page? Irkillroy (talk) 23:41, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

Possession
I'm thinking about moving this ability to his hollow powers section. When the Hollow takes over, Ichigo's body undergoes a mild hollowfication, causing his eyes to change and the mask begins to form. --<font style="background: black" face="Courier" color="white"> The Goblin  <font style="background: white" face="Courier" color="black"> Talk  21:06, February 16, 2012 (UTC)

Trivia
The front page of chapter 483 shows a pattern on Ichigo's hood which resembles his old Hollow mask. Is this an item that can be added to 'Trivia'?--Empty moon (talk) 16:37, March 3, 2012 (UTC)

Shunpo
Are we sure Hollow Ichigo is a Shunpo Expert? I know that we use all the powers of Ichigo as a basis for Hollow Ichigo's abilities, but I've never actually seen him use Shunpo. Shouldn't we change it to Enhanced Speed? --Xilinoc (talk) 04:07, December 4, 2012 (UTC)

Current Status
Considering Ichigo lost his powers but then regained them is hollow ichigo still around, or was he destroyed along with the old powers?--Lordxehanort (talk) 21:32, February 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hollow Ichigo fused with his old Shinigami powers, which Ichigo lost when he used the Final Getsuga Tensho. We do not know if he has regained them since as we have not seen any instance of him using them. Kamikaze839 (talk) 21:37, February 27, 2013 (UTC)

Kill everything and anything he sees?!
Where in the world is that stated in the manga? He clearly stated during the Vizard training that he would only take over if Ichigo couldn't man up, prove his dominance, and keep himself from dying or else he'd become a mindless Hollow. The Hollow stated in Deicide that his goal was to protect Ichigo, as he did in the SS arcs and on the Dome. Don't tell me he said it in a non-canon filler arc or fan speculation.
