Talk:Reiatsu

Reiatsu Colors
Since it lists the Reiatsu colors here, should I go around and add that information to its respective articles (i.e. Grimmjow has blue reiatsu, Shuhei Hisagi has green, etc.)?--Xilinoc (talk) 18:02, December 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't see why not, though an admin might. I doubt there would be a problem with that though Kamikaze839 (talk) 18:36, December 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * You must reference it if you are placing it in Articles in the Reiatsu sections!!
 * Done. We can close this discussion now.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:08, January 5, 2013 (UTC)

Link
In the list of colors and their respective characters, the link to Ulquiorra's page (beside the color Green) isn't typed correctly. I'd fix that, but the page is locked. Fatdude (talk) 01:34, June 14, 2013 (UTC)

Sternritter colors
So, with the release of the colored manga, is it safe to put some Sternritter (and Yhwach here)? I mean, Yhwach (post SK absorption) clearly has pitch black Reiatsu, while Gerard & Lille seem to have golden Reiatsu in their Vollstandig, while Askin's seems to be purple. What do others think?

 * Yeah, thanks for bringing it up, I'll add them.--Xilinoc (talk) 12:12, May 28, 2019 (UTC)

Personality = Color?
I just noticed an unreferenced bit of text on the page saying that the color of Reiatsu "is determined by the owner’s personality". Now, aside from being unreferenced, I cannot remember this being stated anywhere. Likewise, considering some characters have their Reiatsu change colors depending on their transformations, I also doubt the accuracy. So, unless for example Ichigo's personality changes drastically upon going Bankai (it doesn't), I think this should be referenced or outright changed. Timjer (talk) 14:49, August 4, 2019 (UTC)


 * Yeah, now that I think about it I can't recall any character ever commenting on the color of someone's Reiatsu, only ever the sensation/size/density/etc. of it. It might be in SOULs or another databook, but until someone comes along with proof of that I've replaced it with something more relevant.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:00, August 4, 2019 (UTC)

Ichigo's Reiatsu colors
So, I know that the anime has repeatedly shown Ichigo's Shikai Reiatsu (and Getsuga) as being light blue; but thing is the manga does establish that Ichigo's Shikai Reiatsu (and Getsuga and true Bankai) is actually golden in color. And considering the cultural significance of that color (especially in Japan, look at the Super Saiyan form colors) I do think it's not something to just ignore. So shouldn't we use that as the official coloring, just as other times the anime changed/censored something? Timjer (talk) 17:35, 9 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Huh, I didn't know that never got updated on this page - I was there for the discussion/proof-bringing that led to it being changed on Ichigo's page itself, but I always figured that always extended to here. I'll fix it, thx for bringing it up.--Xilinoc (talk) 19:04, 9 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Wait a minute, that was updated on the page; what are you referring to here?--Xilinoc (talk) 19:06, 9 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Okay, that's weird. I could have sworn I saw Ichigo still listed on the "blue" section last time I checked. I don't know how to explain this... Maybe I just didn't sleep enough tonight? Or I got different pages mixed up? Anyway, awkward...


 * EDIT: Ah, I found the problem! Ichigo's own page still says "His Reiatsu is light-blue in color." So because of that I must have thought this page was the one still outdated; I must have gotten the sources mixed up in my head somehow...


 * EDIT 2: The "shape" section here also says that Ichigo has "Blue Reiatsu". Man, am I glad I'm not going crazy or somehow crossing into parallel worlds... Timjer (talk) 19:35, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

Manga profile pic
Just like I proposed on the Getsuga talk page, how about we switch the current profile pic to a different one? Now once again, for the most part the current anime gif works very well for this page, I agree. But I just don't feel comfortable using a gif from a filler arc, showing filler characters, and in a rather "big lipped alligator moment", all for a canon concept. If anyone is in agreement, I'll look for some options to choose between (either manga or anime works for me; perhaps even a shot of the distorted screen the anime likes to use?).

 * If you can track down a suitable panel from the manga I'd be more than happy to provide the colored version; the issue there is that, well, the anime always showed Reiatsu exertion more clearly than the manga did (with a clear and visible colored aura instead of other characters sweating and/or a bunch of lines going across the page), hence why I put that GIF up as the main image for the page in the first place, simply to illustrate the different colors.--Xilinoc (talk) 21:35, 9 January 2021 (UTC)


 * A possible replacement would be when the top 3 Espada release their reiatsu over Fake Karakura Town -- the whole three pillars into the sky part. It happens in the manga, and it happens in the anime. If I remember right, Sun sorted the gif files, so maybe ask her? Kenji-Taichō (Talk)  21:39, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
