User blog comment:Darknesslover5000/Is Ichigo going to lose his Hollow Powers?/@comment-1489595-20100703021727

When this idea occured to me while reading the manga I felt pleased by the idea. I never liked hollow masks overshadowing Bankai which is what happened regularly with Ichigo. I think its fitting if Ichigo has to 'fix' his hollow before he can achieve his ulitmate power.
