Talk:Tetsuzaemon Iba

Mistake in Synopsis
The SS arc synopsis starts off by saying that "Iba is first seen running to apologize to his his Captain Komamura for his tardiness." This is not correct. His first appearance is in ch. 80. I don't know much about this guy, so I can't fill in the gap between his first appearance & the start of this synopsis, so if somebody could fix it... Much obliged. --Yyp 21:40, September 14, 2009 (UTC)

Kido Level
Do we know that Iba is an expert at Kido? The only thing that we know about Iba is that he has an understanding of Kido as he identified Yoruichi's Shunko as kido. I believe he should be demoted to Practitioner. --Shinitenshi 02:57, October 9, 2009 (UTC)

New Pic
I think Iba deserves a new pic, like the rest of the Gotei 13. In ep 215 there is a good shot of him with the rest of the caps & lieus. Minato88 22:57, November 3, 2009 (UTC)

As it so happens, I have downloaded the highest quality version of 215 sometimes ago for screencapping purposes. How is this pic? Tinni 23:20, November 3, 2009 (UTC)

That is the exact pic I was talking about. So do I have permission to change it? Minato88 23:34, November 3, 2009 (UTC)

I think you can go ahead with that. I don't think anyone is particularly attached to the current pic. Tinni 23:50, November 3, 2009 (UTC)

Fire away. It's a good pic. Much better than the obviously SS arc one that's there now. --Yyp 23:56, November 3, 2009 (UTC)

Iba's Zanpakuto
It is said that Iba's Zanpakuto has a tanto-shape but on the chapter 140's coulor page, we can see him with a much longer blade, more like a katana.
