User blog comment:GinIchimaru/Why Aizen is not "Over-Powered"/@comment-1774413-20100409013245

AiI think Godisme covered your comment quite well, but i will say this, your main point seems to be that he is over-powered because he beat the other captains so quick, firstly i would quickly note that they aren't even entirely defeated nor has kyoraku/ukitake even shown their full powers, secondly with a zanpakuto power such as hypnosis defeating even the most powerful openents is made much easier especially when you combine this with his own shinigami skills. As ive stated in a universe such as bleach where every hero has their own unique power and all of them are powerful in there own way, Aizen simply has to be this strong in order to make it believable he could pull his plans off. As Godisme states though he does have weaknesses.

on a side note i dont like the idea of comparing bleach to naruto, not only for the fact that naruto is far inferior, but also because they work very differently. In bleach there isnt power-levels that instantly make you better than others, as proven by Hisagi's defeat of Tosen or even Yumichikas defeat of Hisagi earlier in the series..... you dont have to be more powerful to win
