Forum:Gotei 13 replacement captains..........

Do u think that royal guard captains or maybe lietenant ranking officers with bankai's will fill the void left by Aizen and co? I know that their have previously been squads without captains in the past (but i doon't know how long the spots remained vacant 4) but i don't reallly think any of the ranked officers want to be captains of their squads or other squads for whatever reasons (no bankai, wanting to serve under their captains till they die, wanting to surpass the current captain or simply no interest in the position.) Wouldn't it be interesting if some royal guard soldiers filled the positions, when the dust is ssettled? We would get to see royal guard spirit pressure, new personalities, shikai's and maybe later some royal guard bankai's Anakin69 19:15, 11 July 2009 (UTC) -->

The problem is that even if a lieutenant or seated officer knows bankai that is not all that makes up what it is to be a captain the spiritual power would have to be great, they would need to have considerable battle knowledge and expert or mastery skills in the various combat techniques. Bankai is not the only thing that makes you qualified. But you are correct most dont want to or are not ready to be captains. But the likelihood is the royal guard are a step up so they wouldnt step down or be allowed to. There current role is more important then their previous one.Salubri 19:46, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

I would love to see some new characters as the new captain replacements, but not entirely new. By that I mean like the Kido Corps captain, maybe even the royal guard(probably not).But thats just my opinion.Scott sswagg (talk) 05:08, October 24, 2010 (UTC)
