User blog comment:Godisme/The Gotei 13 repeat and reboot wrap up/@comment-1393830-20120202171140

In other news, reading through BA trying to find any more translations is becoming hilarious. While some people have actual relatively possible theories such as Ryuken's giving up of being a Quincy having something to do with the Quincy war, some of the theories are absolutely ridiculous. Below are some of my favorites
 * Ikumi is a former Shinigami.
 * Masaki is the Soul King
 * Kaien never died nor fused with Metastacia
 * Masaki is a villain
 * Urahara will set Aizen free and team up with him to defeat the Soul King

And my personal favorite
 * Isshin is the father of Kaien. He left Kaien when he joined the Royal Guard and changed his last name to Kurosaki from Shiba. Then, after meeting Masaki, they had a child, Kugo Ginjo. They gave him up for adoption and later gave birth to Ichigo.
