PHEW! Taking a short break from a pretty hectic college life of homework, studying, and the like. It's been so crazy with all the stuff I've been doing, I haven't done anything here in a number of days! Guess I'll talk a little about this, mainly how I believe Ichigo knowing fullbring will help restore his powers, since many people seem to be really lost on this point. I've kind of got a theory on this, which I hope isn't crackish. Remember a few chapters back when Uryu mentioned he was able to sense some Reiatsu from Ichigo. That means he has some small part of his power returning after losing all of it against Aizen. Also, remember that Ichigo's shinigami powers are one and the same with his hollow powers. These two things are both undeniable, but the next part is where I try to make some connections. I've heard both theories of how Ichigo got the hollow powers required from fullbring - Either from Isshin, or from his own hollow powers. I personally prefer the latter one - that Hollow Ichigo is the source of his fullbring. I think this would be more easily explained than Isshin's encounters with random hollows. Next, by using fullbring, you're utilizing the hollow powers within you. By Ichigo mastering his fullbring, and thus his hollow powers, he should be able to access his shinigami powers through that, because they are both related to each other. Personally, I don't think this theory is too farfetched, but I hope someone tells me if it is.
