So i just thought of something cool. What if Ichigo was to use his Quincy ability to gather Reishi, and make a mask out of pure Reiryoku, much like his Hollow mask? Or some other form of Hollowfication located on his body? It would be fusing the two abilities together. And if it could be done, i imagine the Reiryoku would be of a very deep, dark blue color (rather than the lighter blue we've seen) due to being darkened by Hollow influence. That, or the normal blue color with added black swirls.

It may seem to contradict my theory as to why Ichigo would use something like that as a power boost, when i believe Ichigo is far beyond that now, and there's no more need for Hollowfication. But it could still coincide with that idea. Here's how:

1: I've suggested earlier in this thread, that maybe Ichigo still retains the ability to Hollowfy, just as part of the Hollow powers he has, and to show he has that much control over them, that he can use it at will, for however long he needs or wants. I still think that's unlikely, though, personally.

2: It would be crafted like his Hollow mask, but wouldn't be used as Hollow power. It would be solely the Reishi collecting that Quincies can perform. Like how Uryu formed a bow quiver to his shoulder when he performed Letzt Stil, Ichigo could form a Reishi replica of his Hollow mask for the same purpose ('course, it wouldn't be for Letzt Stil... but i won't get too far into that on this thread).

Those examples rely on one power dominating over the other, though. So take all that with a grain of salt, hahah. Re-reading this comment has me thinking this idea sucks, but i'll post it anyway. XP Just toying around a thought i had today, that if Ichigo ever learned this Quincy ability, he could make it way cool and infuse his old Hollowfication in terms of visual performance.

Just a muse in the moment... not that great of one, though. Carry on. Lol.
