Ichigo's first sword off rukia was also always in its released state and that was no truer to the real zangetsu, and oh whats this another new truer zangetsu... face it you guys, Zanpakto's have many forms until it and its master accept eachother. Kenpachi may have had an overwhelming power and forced his sword into a released state but without getting his zanpakto's permission there's no way for the two to accept each other.
