Forum:Barragan vs. Hachi

This is a interesting fight i think. I previously predicted this match up in a previous post and im happy it came about. But I amt thrown by Barragan's comment. He states to Hachi that did he think that age couldn't affect kido. This statement doesn't make sense on a couple things. 1. what does barragan know about kido or its nature that he can make the statement considering that espada dont seem to know much about the shinigami besides the most basic and kido is a pretty hard thing to even learn let alone counter effectively except with kido. 2. Time doesn't seem to affect kido a whole lot, alot of binding spells have been used but its possible he is right as well, we are not even certain the level of spell hachi uses or what it was supposed to do. Regardless of the him breaking through it i still think kido is his weakness but probably more destructive kido then anything. Also note when hachi did the spell he had no mask on which might have increased its power and also we know he is capable of far more then this from time/space powers like orihime's but more developed so we will have to wait but im eager to see what happens.Salubri 07:19, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

I Believe This Will Be One Of The More Interesting Fights. At This Point Hachi Is The Last Hope For This Fight. I Believe Barragan Made His Statement About Kido Because: He Thinks/Knows Everything Is Weak Against Time/Age. Surley Kido Does Not Last Forever,So It Can Be Aged,Right? I Believe Only Extremely Destructive Kido Can Even Injure Him. I'm Talking Level 90 And Up. If He Puts His Mask It Would Increase His Chances. I Can't Wait To See What Happens Next. But, It Does Make Me Wonder: If Barragan Is The Official #2 Espada, And He Has This Kind Of Power, What Does Stark Have Up His Sleeve? His Power To Age Stuff, Would In Be In Theory Better Than Starrks Powers(The Ones He's Shown At This Point). I Want To See The Outcome Of This Battle, But I'm More Interested In Seeing Starrks Battle With Rose And Love. Pookl-sama 08:12, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Im in agreement with both you guys. It is a little weird that he made that statement, but i do think its because he is arrogant and over confident in his own power. He truly believes that time is unbeatable, more to do with seeing himself as a god-king. Hachi is the only one that can take him with kido. Soifon was a bad choice to fight him, even her horrible useless bankai didn't work against him. We will see what happens im so excited.Torta Vos 15:23, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Hachi might prevail by catching Barragan off guard. with a kido like attack, but barragan might say "Impossible, kido can't touch me" and Hachi rebuts with "Your mistaken. I havent used kido in over a hundred years. Its just a thought.Heruga59 08:35, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
