Talk:Ichigo Kurosaki

Further Division
Alright, so this is something which has been on my mind for a while now. I'm sure you're all aware of how ridiculously long Ichigo's page is, even with much of the content on other pages. Well, I think we can take a page from the One Piece wiki here and divide things a bit further. Currently, the longest section on Ichigo's page are his History/Plot section and his Powers & Abilities section, so here is what we could do: create 2 subpages, one for his plot involvement and one for his Power & Abilities section. This would leave just the appearance and personality sections on the page, making it much easier and smoother to look at. Additionally, this way we could lock individual sections of his page should need be (i.e. if a chapter comes out where Ichigo uses a new power, we can lock just the Power & Abilities subpage and allow editors to work on other subpages instead of just locking up the whole thing). This could also be done for other characters who have particularly lengthy sections on their page, i.e. Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto. Thoughts?--Xilinoc (talk) 15:45, June 19, 2013 (UTC)

Two second Hollow Mask images
Due we really need two images of the same topic? In the Hollow Powers section of Ichigo, there is a still image and a gif image of Ichigo's second mask. Personally, I think it should be one or the other. Can whoever has the authority to do so please remove one of the said images? Steveo920, 20:04, June 25, 2013

One is showing the appearance of his new mask, and the other is showing the process of donning the mask. A still image is better than a GIF, but a GIF is required to show how his mask is donned. I think both are necessary. Andrew Crichton (talk) 04:20, June 26, 2013 (UTC)

Chapter 503 reference
I just noticed that his scene from chapter 503 when he was trying to break out after hearing what happened to Rukia, Renji and Byakuya and shouts "I WON'T LET ANY OF YOU DIE", that hasn't been referenced.

Unreadable hideboxes
The hideboxes are white-on-white and thus unreadable without highlighting the whole thing. maggosh 15:49, July 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * You mean for the Powers and Abilities section? Those show up as White text on a black background on my end. Pardon me for intruding, but it seems you've reported having this kind of color issue before. I would recommend checking to see if the problem is local (i.e. your own computer). Just a suggestion, though.

Shiba clan?
Should the fact the Ichigo a part of the Shiba clan be added?James.Matthew.Rodriguez (talk)James.Matthew.Rodriguez

No. His father was a Shiba doesnt really make him one, he didnt grow up apart of that family and it would be pointless to list such a thing until he is confirmed in the series as one by acknowledgement of those that are or acknowledge that connection. Basically its a non-issue to be placed in content currently.--

Minor Edit: Adding link to both Zangetsu spirit forms
I think we forgot to add a link to Zangetsu (Zanpakutō spirit) apart from Zangetsu (Quincy Powers) in the Zanpakuto section of "Powers and Abilities". They are both the spirit form of the new sword. Rafer.Alston (talk) 20:44, July 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * There's still a good number of changes that have to be made, not only with the whole Zangetsu reveal from a while back, but also with this information from The Dagger. Luckily, with this hiatus Bleach is on, the wiki's got time to get everything together and organized before chapter 547 comes out.

Broken reference
The first reference in Hollow Combat paragraph seems to be broken. Its content should be replaced with. --  The Talk Goblin 10:58, September 23, 2013 (UTC)
 * Fixed. Thanks for pointing it out.

Zanpakuto and Shunpo
Shouldn't we add to his Zanpakuto section that he added cloth wrapping around the handles of his swords, and that he carries the large blade on his back and the smaller one on his right hip? Also, for the Shunpo section, should we add that he could travel a distance that would take a week with regular Shunpo in half a day? Also would that make him a Shunpo Master or no?

SilverRain (talk) 03:32, November 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, for the appearances, you can add them if you provide references. For the travel speed, I'd rather wait until he shows up, Ichigo could've been talking big for all we know.

Alrighty. Yeah,about the travel speed, that makes sense. SilverRain (talk) 03:44, November 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * We don't know if Ichigo's claim of making it to Soul Society in half a day is true, but you're correct about what he's done with his swords, so I've added that.--Xilinoc (talk) 03:46, November 8, 2013 (UTC)

Coolio, thanks. Also what about an editing conflict? SilverRain (talk) 03:49, November 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, I saw your first message, made the edit, and tried to publish a response stating my stance on the Shunpo bit and informing you that I had added the bit about the swords, but Kami had published his response in the intervening period, leading to an editing conflict since an edit was published while another one was being prepared. I once again typed my response and tried to publish it, but you had responded to Kami's reply without a signature. So I typed my response once more and added an unsigned template to your response, but you had added your signature in THAT intervening period. So, I prayed to the gods that no one would respond and repeated the whole process again, and it finally, finally worked. So much frustration. Anyhow, discussion closed for now until Ichigo proves he wasn't talking big.--Xilinoc (talk) 06:35, November 8, 2013 (UTC)

Reiatsu
Should we include Kirio's statement about Ichigo's wavering reiatsu being "but a memory now" to his "Novice Reiatsu Control" subsection? SilverRain (talk) 04:52, November 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * No, That statement has nothing to do with his ability to consciously control his reiatsu, if it did he would have a sealed zanpakuto, be capable of kido and the skill to hide his reiatsu among other things, all that statement affirmed is that his reiatsu is stable as opposed to him being powerful and weak off and on as he has at various points in the series.--

Well, the subsection does mention his fluctuating reiatsu, so I think we should put in that it doesn't do that anything. SilverRain (talk) 05:01, November 17, 2013 (UTC)

well stability of reiatsu does mean "under control" and I think him not sealing his zanpakuto has to do with the forging process, remember ouetsu did not finish making a standard asauchi for him to imprint but rather when the blade was still being forged when he did so, also one could have controlled reiatsu and sealed zanpakuto but uncontrolled kido eg. renji or no knowledge/ use of it eg. ikkaku, finally being able to hide your reiatsu isn't a universal skill in bleach tho. anyway that's my two cents but your the administrator. peace Rayzur (talk) 02:46, November 23, 2013 (UTC)

Hollow forms and Hollowfication
Shouldn't we add his full Hollow forms under his Hollowfication abilities, maybe a subsection? Ignoring the inconsistent portrayal of whether or not Zangetsu is literally taking over his soul, it's still part of Ichigo's powers.RedHotRaider (talk) 17:01, November 24, 2013 (UTC)
