Talk:Katen Kyōkotsu (Zanpakutō spirit)

Profile Picture
The old profile picture is rather poor due to the lighting. It couldn't be helped though, as she only appeared for a moment. But she has now appeared in episode 245. I took a screencap of her and am replacing the old pic with that shot. If she appears in any upcoming episodes and someone gets a better picture of her, then post it here and we'll decide which one to use for her page. --Yyp 13:47, November 11, 2009 (UTC)



Second Half
There's also the second one that looks like a ninja, anyone have it? Tman7776 03:14, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

I grabbed a picture, but just a mug. If that's fine with everyone, I'll go ahead and add it. (Or someone else can.)

Question: are we sure the ninja half is also female? S/he doesn't have any noticeable breasts. Twocents 05:50, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

Looks female to me. Anyway, I think it would be best if we could manage to get a shot of the two of them together for the profile picture. Hopefully the next episode or two will give us a good shot of them. I've added a couple more shots of the first body. If we don't get a decent one of the two together, we may have to use one of those. But hopefully it wont come to that. --Yyp 13:10, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

I added a shot of Katen Kyokotsu's second half (uploaded by User:KatenKyokotsu) in the Character Outline section. Though, if possible, if they're shown together at one point, that can either be their profile image, or we can do mugshots of both, and put full-body pics of them in the Character Outline section.

I don't know why she uploaded an essentially identical image to the one I had already uploaded yesterday. I'm going to delete hers, because it lacks the fair value information and it's been oddly stretched vertically, and I'll replace it with the image I had already uploaded, since we're generally in agreement that it'll suffice for the time being.

If we want to do mug shots, though, I generally like Yyp's shot a, though shot b is also fine, if everyone else prefers that. Twocents 19:46, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

I am fairly certain the second half is male. Tinni 12:35, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

I think that the 2nd half uses Kageoni to appear behind Shunsui at the end. Can I add this? TomServo101 13:47, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Kyoraku did not step on his shadow. The room was dark enough to not cast shadows. The second half seems to have risen from on of the pools of water that surrounded Kyoraku. In fact, I had a quick look at the segment in question and the second half does appear to be rising from one of the pools, not the shadows. Tinni 14:02, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Just added a full body picture of the second half xXUlquehXx 19:02, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Character Outline
In the character outline, it says that Katen Kyokotsu left Kyoraku because of his dull nature. I got a different translation. In a sub I got, she said she left because of his decadent nature. This seems more towards Kyoraku's personality.--Shinitenshi 07:40, November 23, 2009 (UTC)


 * That's what my sub says too. Would be nice if someone who speaks Japanese could come clarify but decadent is more Kyoraku then dull. Tinni 07:44, November 23, 2009 (UTC)
