High-Speed Regeneration GIF
Does anybody think it'd be worth putting in a GIF of when Ichigo's hollow hole is closed up? I was going to put in an image of it but when I rewatched the scene there's no chance for a single shot to show it's effect because the camera angle moves with the energy effect. Prophet of Sanghelios 01:03, May 30, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, since Prophet of Sanghelios brought this up, I have made a gif for the High-Speed Regeneration article showing Hollow Ichigo regenerating. It wasn't use in that article but its still available for use if people think there is a need for it. Tinni  (Talk)  13:17, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

I guess there's no harm in doing so, but I was wondering if it would be worth using a gif of when he regenerated his arm instead, back when that it spawned that huge monster thing to attack Kensei. I wasn't sure whether or not to include that on the regeneration page, but it seemed to be related to the ability. Mohrpheus (talk) 13:42, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

Getsuga .gif
isn't there a better picture of Hollow Ichigo's Getsuga Tenshou than a GIF?--Dusk-sama (対談) 19:22, June 18, 2010 (UTC)

I think there was a question like this and we've had this come up before so basic answer is. If anyone has a personal issue or their computers running slow or whatever have you then as a whole everyone cannot be accommodated. Gifs are just as qualified as the pics are and in certain cases of depiction are required even more than pics. --Salubri (Talk)  19:55, June 18, 2010 (UTC)

yeah but it's kinda bad quality and the words that are visible at the bottom are kinda annoying. but whatever tickles your peach.--Dusk-sama (対談) 06:08, June 21, 2010 (UTC)

thanks muches--Dusk-sama (対談) 02:53, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

Well I understand that I'll see about getting something better put up. Salubri (Talk)  13:42, June 21, 2010 (UTC)

thanks very muches--Dusk-sama (対談) 03:08, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

I didn't realise there was a problem with this gif but Dusk-sama is correct, I the old gif was the wrong size and very low quality. I can't do anything about the subtitles but I have remade it to the correct size and it's hopefully better quality now. Tinni  (Talk)  13:17, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

Adding gif of his telekensis
could someone add it because I don't know how to. Crimsonterminator1000 02:06, May 20, 2010 (UTC)

It is very complicated as you have to download the video, convert it into a animated file viewable in an image editor, reduce frame sizes to prevent excessive file sizes and saving it as .gif. Plus much more. Hanzō 15:24, May 20, 2010 (UTC)

I have nothing against making a telekensis gif but is it necessary? It just shows zangetsu flying to him. Tinni  (Talk)  13:17, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

New Bankai Images
I thinks this image is better, because this a full body pic.

inconsistency in what colors are used to describe his version of Zangetsu.
in the article the shikai is described as a black sword with a silver edge ( it's normal appearance) while in Ichigo's inner world he used a version of Zangetsu that had a silver blade with a black edge. the bankai is described as a daito with a white blade, crossguard and handle. ( it's appearance when HI uses it in Ichigo's inner world) while Tenza Zangetsu. is normally all black. which version should be used in the article the normal version or HI's Inner world version. I personally would prefer the inner world version but the important thing is that it is consistent.

also in the section describing the Enhanced Getsuga Tensho used in bankai it is is described as white ( in reference to the white GT that HI uses in ichigo's inner world ) but otherwise the description is identical to Ichigo's Enhanced GT including stating that the name is Kuroi Getsuga due to it's darkened color. ( which contradicts the earlier description of it as white.) what i propose is that the Enhanced Getsuga Tensho ( which should probably just be called Kuroi Getsuga to simplify things) is described as a black version of GT first used by HI and then the fact that HI uses a white GT in Ichigo's inner world instead of Kuroi Getsuga should be noted. Kamiryu (talk) 02:26, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

I agree with the shikai and bankai, it should be described as it was in Ichigo's inner world. I cannot remember the Kuroi Getsuga so I can't really put in my opinion on that. I will fix the shikai for now and if it is disagreed upon, we can change it back--God (Pray)  02:43, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

Hichigo's personality
"His only reason for existence is to take over Ichigo's power and body to use it to kill everything and anything he sees." The first half of that sentence is fine. But "kill everything and anything he sees?" I don't recall that ever being stated. Could somebody provide a manga chapter/page, and if nobody else can recall reading this, can we change it?

Hollow Ichigo in Heat the Soul 7
The second version of Ichigo's Hollow appears in the new game Bleach: Heat The Soul 7 as a selectable character. I think this is worth mentioning. LordChaotic (talk) 05:10, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

It will be placed in his appearances in other media section when the game is released--God (Pray)  05:12, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

It is officially released in Japan as of Tuesday. http://www.gamefaqs.com/psp/995176-bleach-heat-the-soul-7/data LordChaotic (talk) 05:49, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

He's right; it is out. But it doesn't matter anymore. I already put up that his new Hollow form is playable in Heat the Soul 7. Arrancar109 (Talk)  05:57, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

villian?
in the article it has been stated that he is a antagonist/villian but the only bad thing he has actually done is to try to take over ichigos body with the rest of the time making ichigo stronger or saving his life. so i think that bit is a bit prejudice so could it be changed to something like byronic/anti heroKaran8 (talk) 20:01, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

The definition of "antagonist" is "person who opposes the protagonist." Ichigo is the protagonist. Hichigo opposes him, therefore, Hichigo is the villain. Chubert (talk) 20:52, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Regarding that definition, we should consider Tensa Zangetsu a villian since Ichigo opposes him. In addition, he borrows powers from both Hichigo and Tensa Zangetsu (and none of them is an individual being as well). DontCallMeCrazy (talk) 21:05, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Forget it, we are not doing this.We have had this debate before, see Talk:Hollow_Ichigo/Archive_1, we are not having this debate again. Discussion closed. Tinni  (Talk)  21:07, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Shouldn't a characters personality make sense?
Shoouldn't a characters personality make sense? Such as removing quotation marks from there, well, personalities?Iamnofool (talk) 00:51, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

It's fine the way it is. Arrancar109 (Talk)  00:56, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

How about adding to Hollow Ichigo's trivia?
How about adding to Hollow Ichigo's trivia? Such as him and Tensa Zangetsu's, fusion looking like Kisuke Urahara? Iamnofool (talk) 01:02, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

No, that's Junk Trivia. Lia Schiffer  (Talk)  01:04, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

How about that, when they fuse they, have two different eye colors? How about that, when Hichigo and Tensa Zangetsu, fuse they have two unalike eye colours? Iamnofool (talk) 01:17, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

I'm not really sure of where do you want it, but that will probably be added to the description of the Hollowfied Tensa Zangetsu. Lia Schiffer  (Talk)  01:22, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

It would make sense to have under Ichigo's, Zangetsu's, and Hollow Ichigo's trivia's? It would make the most sense to have it added to the following triva's; Ichigo's, Zangetsu's, and Hollow Ichigo's. Iamnofool (talk) 01:28, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

No, Hollow Ichigo has his own article, so he has hiw own Trivia section, there is no point in adding his Trivia section to Ichigo's article. Zangetsu, as a character of the Zanpakuto Unknown Tales arc (and of that filler arc only, not the manga character Zangetsu or Tensa Zangetsu as of yet), has his own article and has his own Trivia related to it. Lia Schiffer  (Talk)  01:36, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

Hollow Tensa
Um, shouldn't Zangetsu get an article, and we can add all of his stuff there (including things that happened when he was Hollow Tensa)?--私はあくまで執事ですから - "I'm one hell of a butler."'' ("Heaven?") 18:40, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

This is more or less in the process of being done. Zangetsu's anime-only article is going to be expanded to include the manga information. The information about "Hollow Tensa" will be included there, since he was the dominant personality in that form. Mohrpheus (talk) 18:47, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

As Mohrph said, We will be adding manga content to Zangetsu's article and that is where the information will be placed. Just be patient.--God (Pray)  18:56, September 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * YAY! I didn't think u lot were gonna do it, so I just thought I should ask--私はあくまで執事ですから - "I'm one hell of a butler."'' ("Heaven?") 00:04, September 25, 2010 (UTC)

Fan Names
I propose we delete Hollow Ichigo's fan names in the "Trivia" section, as I don't think it is necessary anymore. Back before we had the policies in place, when I was the only active administrator, I could see it then, since people kept putting these names in place of "Hollow Ichigo" and actually changed the article name as well, but now that the site is much more organized and we have a large amount of policies in place, especially to stop the previous behaviors that I've mentioned, I think we can effectively keep his fan names off entirely. All in all, with our policies and guidelines in place, I think we can delete Trivia points #2, #4, and #5, and we can probably put Trivia point #1 in the "Personality" section. What do you guys think? Arrancar109 (Talk)  01:13, December 12, 2010 (UTC)

I agree. Fan content has no place on the site--<font color="#660066" face="Verdana">God <font color="#660066" face="Verdana">(Pray)  01:28, December 12, 2010 (UTC)

I'm in full agreement. The problem with fan terms is that their so-called "popularity" is relative, and in many cases, only apply to a select demographic in a specific set of fan websites. It isn't as though they were universally recognized, and the fact that there were so many nicknames doesn't support the idea. Worse of all, the information cannot be referenced in any way that would abide by our standards in the slightest. Mohrpheus  (Talk)  01:46, December 12, 2010 (UTC)

Well, since there are reasons to get rid of it and no reasons to keep it, I'm going to go ahead with this. <font color="teal" size="2px">Arrancar109 <font color="teal" size="1px">(Talk)  03:13, December 13, 2010 (UTC)
