Does Nozarashi have two different released states; one constant, and one that requires a name, or does it have a semi-released and a fully released state? One could argue that it's the latter, since one state clearly is much more powerful than the other, and the fact that there are other examples of semi-released Zanpakuto, such as Fuji-/Ruri'iro Kujaku, and also Hihio-/Soo Zabimaru.
