The hilt thing was only for shikai. I'm sure of this. if a shikai breaks, it can always be repaired if the hilt is in tact. bankais are different. it has been stated the toshiro's bankai is a special case where it can be damaged and still regenerate. komamura.... I'm not sure about his... and sui-feng... what happened to her bankai that makes you think it's busted? I mean it's supposed to explode. it's a missle. but it regenerates and reloads naturally. the only part of her bankai that probably would count as damage-able material is the shield/launcher attached to her body.
