Talk:Rōjūrō Ōtoribashi

Whip Expert
Like it is noted on Renji Abarai's page about being skilled in using a whip-like weapon, shouldn't we also say the same for Rose's abilities? According to episode 282, he seems to be very good at wielding his whip-shaped Shikai, so shouldn't it be noted under swordsmenship skill? --Seireitou-shishō (瀞霊冬川平) 23:05, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

Arpeggio Technique
It's listed as one of his Zanpakuto's Shikai techniques although he was shown using it in his Zanpakuto's sealed state. Shouldn't it be moved just above his Shikai release, like Harribel and Gantenbainne's Zanpakuto's sealed techniques --Jigsaw Billy (talk) 02:29, June 6, 2012 (UTC)

It should be noted that this technique is somewhat different between the manga and the anime. In the manga there is no wire or twisting force, rather the hollow is stretched and shredded directly by the vibrations of his melody. Regulaiz (talk) 01:20, June 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * It should be noted as its not different at all, why would you be able to see anything such as that in a picture based, black and white format.--


 * Actually you should be able to see as such in the manga. Manga artists believe it or not are actually somewhat accustomed to drawing pictures in small black and white format (astounding I know). Plus the anime frequently takes very large liberties in how it displays abilities. Regulaiz (talk) 20:57, June 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * Well this is not an argument issue. Im really not sure what your issue with it is, the gif is staying regardless. Thats your interpretation of the event while that is not the interpretation of what happened that we use. Also while anime does take certain liberties that is not commonly the case with how it depicts abilities in this series. Also may i point out that to argue that point you would have to show proof of other numerous cases in order to prove it to be true. Im not concerned with what other manga artists do im quite familiar with Tite Kubo and what he is capable of doing. You dont always get what you should be able to see. having said that there is no point to the conversation.--

Rose's Ambidextrosity and Expression
Two things I'd like to suggest

Firstly, can the 'perpetually bored' comment from his description be removed? It's ridiculous seeing that the picture the site has shows him smiling...and there are any number of times when he doesn't look bored, including the latest manga chapter when he looks downright creepy.

Secondly, can we add in Rose's ambidextrosity to his sword skills? I'm not quite sure how to correctly reference it here, but when he's fighting Stark with Love in the FKKT arc, his first release of Kinshara is with his right hand. However, when he releases the second time he uses his left, and uses the fingers of his right hand against Kinshara's whip to launch Izayoi no Bara. Vraieesprit (talk) 12:40, June 8, 2012 (UTC)

But that doesnt make him ambidextos? He does the complex action with his more preferred right hand while the simple action of just holding the hilt is done with the less preferred hand. Right handed people put their watches on their left wrist because the fiddly job of strapping it up is easier done with their preferred hand. Same here --SternRitterÄs (talk) 13:46, June 8, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, so ambidextrous is perhaps an overly grandiose word, but if you go back and look at his fighting, he releases the sword and uses it with the RIGHT, then later releases the sword and uses it (I mean as a whip) WITH THE LEFT in the exact same manner. Both times he extends it and then recoils it to his grasp, only once with the right and once with the left. I think that would count as being skilled in using his sword equally with both hands. I only mentioned the Izayoi as a reference, since he consciously used his right hand over the left release to perform that trick - I can't prove of course that he couldn't do it the other way around.

Where did Rose appear in 511?
I checked and I didn't find him in any of the chapters after Yamamoto's death. --Nintendo-Fan (talk) 06:12, October 20, 2012 (UTC)Nintendo-Fan
