Anyone else notice that both Quincy's and Fullbring use items they hold dear to themselve?. Like Quincy's having their crosses and Fullbring using their necklace / watch / shinigami badge. Hence Ichigo was able to get Fullbring to its max so fast instead of training for years. And ichigo didn't loose his Fullbring powers when that dude stabbed him.

Like Rukia said, He would never be able to steal his entire power of Fullbring/Shinigami powers in a million years. His shinigami powers merged with the Fullbring, Hence he looked diffrent when Rukia gave him the power boost. ( With the Tattoo's over his body marking with x's "xecution") And still was obviously stronger then the dude that stole his power.

And Ichigo had shinigami powers of his own, Rukia only awakened the power due to absorbing all of her power. She only wanted to give 50% of her power But since his shinigami power merged with the hollow inside him (hollow,provided by his mother) he needed more power then only the 50% so it took all of it. Atleast that is what i think of this, and since an shinigami is an entire other being, powerless or not. Shinigami is shinigami. So Ichigo is a shinigami with hybrid Quincy - Shinigami/hollow powers. ( Shinigami that loose their power, can get the powers back like ichigo steadily did by fighting and other stuff )
