Zaraki and his Zanpakuto
Zaraki has improved the relationship with his Zanpakuto somewhat due to his battle with Ichigo. Aside from the failed attempt to communicate with it, he is starting to treat it with some degree of respect, both in terms of how he talks about it, and also in his embracing it with two hands for the infamous kendo. I never really saw this moment as being about just hitting Nnoitra harder and beating him with a (somewhat bizarre power-up), but rather as being about Zaraki showing the sword some respect - and it responded big time. --Yyp 16:56, November 4, 2009 (UTC)

Zaraki disappearance
By thinking about it, I am wondering why and where Zaraki & Yachiru usually disappeared during some arcs.
 * Does it mean that Zaraki is absent from his division because he trains to find his sword's name and develop his bankai (as well as Y) or some holes are created in the scenario, allowing TK to prepare some arc to show their past stories that would fit in Bleach timeline.
 * As seen in Hueco Mondo, Zaraki didn't use any bankai. In some episodes, he's shown to use his almost full power (eye's patch) only when it's necessary.
 * That could mean that he doesn't know his zanpakuto's name yet ...Or he already knows it but still didn't want to use it and preferred to show his Kendo ability instead.

In the past it was said that he knew nothing or less about his sword, but in the present nothing indicated that he is in the same situation. Perhaps nothing changed or everything changed already, but it is only speculated thoughtsBaronofash 11:02, September 20, 2009 (UTC)
