Forum:Fullbring

I actually have a better grasp on the policies, but feel free to point anything I might have missed. It's interesting that the usage of Fullbring has a strong emphasis on a person's personality. It would be interesting to see how they'd function as Shinigami, but this isn't the place for that topic. Kugo can turn his favorite pendant into a broadsword, Riruka can transfer people into things she finds cute, and one of the others can even set time limits for certain things. Chad stated (I think?) that his Fullbring rested in his skin--it seems more like his arms--as he contains his pride in there. If his powerful arms are a form of Fullbring, it would technically make Orihime a Fullbring user, also. The only indication is the fact she wore those hairclips for years, and it's through them that she can do all those abilities. The only thing bothering me is the statement Kugo made about the users of Fullbring being affected by Hollow attacks on their mothers before birth. Aizen said that the Hogyoku had affected Chad and Orihime, and that that is how they ended up with their Hollow-esque abilities. Whatever the case may be, it seems even Ichigo has started to show Fullbring, in the form of Getsuga Tenshou-like blasts from his Shinigami badge. It will be interesting to see how this progresses.Lokker G (talk) 22:07, February 19, 2011 (UTC)

Orihime is not a Fullbring user. It has been stated several times that her powers are more like a Shinigami's than a Hollows. Her powers are sentient, much like a zanpakuto spirit. She even has a release command--

Ichigo's Fullbring: Clad-Type
Since it's still pretty new, not much can be verified by Ichigo's transformation, via Fullbring. It is interesting to find that he can use Fullbring to mimic (possibly) the abilities of Shinigami. First, he can propel himself by using Fullbring on concrete, second, he can do the same on air to fly (sorta), and third, his new form... you get the idea. What made me curious was that the extent of Fullbring was only limited to the awareness of its user. This would explain why Yasutora's Fullbring kept changing as he trained.Lokker G (talk) 20:27, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

Why do they want to get rid of their Fullbrings?
This is one question I've been asking myself is why do the members of Xcution want to rid themselves of their Fullbrings? As far as I can tell the damage has already been done, they've gone through their trials to achieve mastery of their abilities, and there is no doubt that these Fullbring abilities are massively useful. Further it seems very risky to pursue their current quest to help an ex-Shinigami gain back his powers.

Unless their is some huge and deadly deficiency in being a Fullbringer that we haven't been told yet, why would they want to go through the hassle? So far it doesn't add up. Great Cthulhu (talk) 01:49, June 16, 2011 (UTC)

I questioned that too, after all if I had those sort of abilities, I wouldn't be too quick to try to give them up. My best idea is that Fullbring, being a hollow-like ability, is somewhat incompatible with the human bodies of the Fullbringers, and is somehow detrimental to their health. I dunno, so I'll wait until further chapters explain it. B-rad128 (talk) 20:14, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

If that was the case Chad would be equally at risk from his Fullbring and would need to get rid of it. But Chad never mentioned that he would have to get rid of his Fullbring, nor did he ever express any concern over a Fullbring's impact to a person's health.

True, but it isn't the first time Bleach has had discrepancies due to the fact Kubo hasn't had every aspect of the story mapped out from the beginning; in fact, he probably only developed the entire idea of Fullbring back when producing chapters of Ichigo's final battle with Aizen, possibly earlier, but if I had to guess I'd say around that time. He'd already developed Chad's powers as hollow-like in nature, so he worked from there... it seems to me he didn't have this planned when Chad got his left arm's powers, because now it seems almost as if Chad has two fullbrings O.o. But, I basically agree with Great Cthulhu below, this will probably not be mentioned again. B-rad128 (talk) 16:53, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

Shrug. I got a funny feeling this little mystery is going to be one of those things Kubo sweeps under the rug and never brings up again. Great Cthulhu (talk) 06:34, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

I did go back and review the original explanation and they mention "troubles" much like Ichigo's Hollow experience. But Kujo Ginjo doesn't go into detail and his story runs a bit counter to Chad's experience with his own Fullbring during the Arancar arc. Who knows? Great Cthulhu (talk) 14:39, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

It might just be because their powers are quite hollow like. Remember how unsettled Chad seemed to be in Hueco Mundo because he could feel how much like a hollow his powers were? Imagine a normal human who never really wanted power like that suddenly not only having them but powers that are disturbingly hollow like. You'd not want anything to do with them.Licourtrix (talk) 20:38, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

Confused on something
I understand how each Fullbringer can have a special unique Fullbring, like the one guy's bookmark. What I don't understand is being able to pull the soul on anything. How does pulling the soul of a drink make it easier to drink or pulling the soul on asphalt make it softer? I get that's what happens, I just don't get the correlation. Kingofdanerds (talk) 15:56, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

"Tugging on its soul" means sort of "influencing" the soul in said object to mess around with the qualities of the object. It doesn't mean literally tug, it's a metaphor for going in and making some tweaks yourself. It's sort of like commanding the object to do something for you; you command the drink to be able to float into the air and slip between your lips, command the asphalt to allow you to spring off of it easier. This is how I think of it; it simplifies things considerably. Aeron Solo wuz here (talk) 23:53, April 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * Oh my gosh, that makes things so much easier to understand. I guess I was just thinking about it the wrong way. Thanks for the help. Kingofdanerds (talk) 01:18, April 22, 2011 (UTC)
