User blog comment:Darknesslover5000/Is Ichigo going to lose his Hollow Powers?/@comment-2171236-20100709014607

I've realized how much Ichigo has changed from the beginning to now. In the beginning, He didn't rely on anything but his determination. Now he is relying on Hichigo and Zangetsu to save him from everything. Like Gin said, he was much scarier back then.
