People need to get this across their mind:

1. Ichigo didn't just lose his Shinigami powers, he lost ALL of his spiritual powers. He can't even see spirits now. If he had Hollow powers, he would be able to sense reiatsu and basic things like that

2. When Tensa Zangetsu bid his farewell to Ichigo, he did it as the fused being of Hollow Ichigo and Tensa Zangetsu. This brings us back to when Hollow Ichigo said he was a part of Zangetsu himself. They BOTH disappeared. They are BOTH gone.

3. Just this week Kugo said it to Ichigo, and I'm quoting from page 11 (12 in MS) "You once had Hollow powers yourself". Keyword: Once. Meaning he DOESN'T have them anymore.

I haven't been around much lately, but I too am dead tired of people asking if Ichigo lost his Hollow powers too, or if Hollow Ichigo is going to take over Ichigo's body now that he's powerless. It's not going to happen, Ichigo doesn't have Hollow powers at the moment. Ichigo doesn't have ANY sort of power at the time being. And that's the end of it.
