I mean, think about it, Bankai is something done on a massive scale, so for him to be completely hypnotize everyone starting from when he was found impaled on the tower is considered massive scale.

Yes, I do realize it was specifically stated that Complete Hypnosis was his Shikai but could just be another Aizen mind trick.

Two cents. bankai doesnt have to be a massive scale, tensa zangetsu, kensei's bankai wasnt massive either, zanka no tachi, kami shini no yari, daiguren hyorinmaru and unohana's bankai, the actual bankai's werent massive the force etc yes but the physical scale that you are comparing they werent massive per say. Actually. Zanka no Tachi might be considered as massive. The blade is small, sure, but the Reiatsu is pretty big. This of course, courtesy of their own wielder's power. Which is to be considered, as when he created Wonderweiss, Aizen gave a prime example of how his Reiatsu is quite above that of the average captain. His Bankai therefore, might have any shape, but it might be of massive area of effect, like ZnT there. you do realize he was talking about physical area and largeness hence the referral to physical size of the bankai? wasnt talking about reiatsu, you can check the comments and deduce that you know. Technically, Zanka no Tachi does have a large, area-of-effect nature - its "South" ability, which summons all those corpses, is pretty huge - as is the passive heat it generates, which is equivalent to a second Sun in magnitude.
