Talk:Yhwach/Archive 3

Strategist
Should we say that Yhwach is a master strategist since he had techniques and tactics developed to counter everything the Shinigami threw at his forces? 'Cause at this point, it's getting at Aizen level of "I have a plan for freaking everything down to the number of steps you'll walk."


 * Frankly, Yhwach hasn't done much in the way of any actual planning. Even in this chapter, he is remarking that his Sternritter are the ones getting all hot and bothered about their opponents getting Bankai back. I mean, the Wandenreich's strategy these past two invasions has amounted to "Teehee! We're already inside your house!" Mohrpheus   (Talk)  13:13, October 23, 2013 (UTC)


 * I would say no as well, his strategy is little more then basic common sense, doesnt seem like there was much thought put into any of the "surprise" moments. Its obvious that if u would lose one way to fight you would find another. Mohrp is right the only real strategy they really had was the hide in the shadows one.--

Well I think now we should mention about his master intellect and knowledge, as of chapter 585, he revealed another way of going to the the Soul King besides the use of the Oken, and how what Ichigo clothes were made out of, and the 72 barriers and knowing how long exactly the cannot be close (6000 seconds)CoolJazzman (talk) 10:09, June 18, 2014 (UTC)


 * Once again im gonna have to disagree here. Logically speaking seeing an opportunity present itself is not the makings of a mastermind. The fact is far to many what ifs that couldnt be planned for had to take place for the situation he is using to work for him, meaning he couldnt have possibly planned for it. Then there is the thing about how he is aware of such specific defensive information. I mean even for Aizen he had to come across some really obscure information on Oken creation in order to formulate a viable plan. Even assuming he got the information somehow from someone, it still hinges on Ichigo and company coming down when there wasnt a definite guarantee they were going up to the palace or how they would return if they did. If it was as simple as doing that they would have been ascended up there when they first came down, yhwach seems insistent on Ichigo's free fall out of all of them being the cause for the opening. In any case knowing the information doesnt make him a strategist.--

Ok, but I think we should label him as someone with a Keen Intellect, because how many people would know so much about stuff like those 72 barriers and how long it takes for the to be closed, as well as what Ichigos new clothes were made out of. CoolJazzman (talk) 15:55, June 18, 2014 (UTC)

Quincy Spell Master
Because Royd was using Yhwach's memories and personality, wouldn't that make Yhwach a Spell Master too? SilverRain (talk) 00:04, January 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure how that makes sense. Royd was copying Yhwach's personality, memories, and appearance, but not his skillset or powers. As likely as it is that Yhwach is a master of Quincy spells, Royd being one while copying pretty much everything that isn't his powers doesn't make him one.--Xilinoc (talk) 00:54, January 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * I get what you are saying. My reasoning is that Royd copied Yhwach's memories, so he would've copied the memories of how to use those techniques. But again, I get what you're saying SilverRain (talk) 00:59, January 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * Royd copies memories and personality, it was Loyd, his brother, who copied powers, and he was the one who disguised as Zaraki.

Personality Update Error
Would have fixed it if the page werent protected, but there is a weird bit in the personality section that was added today. End of the third sentence of second paragraph, it says something about zangetsu form and a cite to this weeks chapter, but it is really out of place. --SternRitterÄs (talk) 13:31, January 22, 2014 (UTC) Thank you Salubri for fixing the weirdness. --SternRitterÄs (talk) 13:46, January 22, 2014 (UTC)


 * no problem--

Correct english pronunciation
This may not be totally relevant to the article, but I digress. After this week's chapter, I finally figured out how to correctly pronounce Yhwach's name in english. Yhwach is named after the Hebrew god often mispronounced or interpreted as Yahweh. The one of the names of of the Hebrew god is YHWH, which is pronounced as YO-VA. The reason I believe this is that the Romanji pronunciation is almost identical to the Hebrew pronunciation. Take a listen for yourselves if you care to. Again I don't know how relevant this is to the article, but at least we can tell people now. -- 16:43, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

Swordsman level
Expert or Master Swordsman He was able to cut ichigo and hold his own.
 * Yeah, he was able to cut Ichigo, but that alone isn't really enough to prove his level. I mean, he's over 1,000 years old, but until we actually see him fight more, his level's staying as is.

Ichigo an "Impure" Quincy...?
I might stand corrected, but isn't Ichigo also an impure Quincy along with Uryū? It's mentioned in the Wiki page that only Uryū was the only mixed-blood Quincy who survived the "impure Quncy extermination", but Ichigo is also partly Quincy as well. I may be wrong if there was an occurrence that Misaki lost her powers before she and Isshin conceived Ichigo, but if this isn't the case, then shouldn't Kurosaki-kun be mentioned with Uryū in that portion of the page? Just an inquiry, but I thought I'd bring it up anyway.

--Mokierie (talk) 19:42, April 4, 2014 (UTC)


 * While Ichigo is, by definition, a Gemischt Quincy like Uryū, Yhwach failed to mention him in his speech to Uryū about his power-stealing bonanza. I'm not sure why; at the moment, it seems like a plot hole, since Yhwach knows that Masaki is Ichigo's mother and would likely know that his father isn't a Quincy, but since there isn't any confirmation on why Ichigo didn't also lose his powers or if Yhwach even targeted him, it sort of goes against the rules here to mention him in that section since, once again, Yhwach didn't mention him. Hope that helps. --Xilinoc (talk) 19:55, April 4, 2014 (UTC)

That makes sense. Thanks for the clarification!

--Mokierie (talk) 19:35, April 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * No problem at all. This seems to have been resolved, so I'll close this discussion.--Xilinoc (talk) 22:04, April 7, 2014 (UTC)

Talk with Aizen
I'm not sure if this was brought up, although I didn't see it on any of the archived talk pages. When Yhwach talked with Aizen, he mentioned losing track of time. A lot of the manga readers I used to use don't work now (for me at least) although the one I did look up said that Aizen disrupted his sense of time while he was down there. I think that it should be mentioned at the very least that Aizen delayed Yhwach, although the reasons why are purely speculation (Aizen grew a heart, he's trying to help, he wanted Yhwach to stay down there forever and grow old together, etc...) Any thoughts? Or was this already settled? Savalric (talk) 21:52, May 26, 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay, I laughed a bit at the "he wanted Yhwach to stay down there forever and grow old together"..... Anyway, using cnet's 514 translation, we know Aizen did something to mess with Yhwach's sense of time, we just don't know what he did. We do have that listed, however (see the paragraph starting "Emerging mostly unharmed...")
 * Alright, never mind then, for some reason, I didn't think through where the content should be placed so didn't see that mentioned. (I only read up until Ywhach first left, and forgot he didn't bring it up until later. Savalric (talk) 18:21, May 31, 2014 (UTC)

Yhwach said who Kirinji was, Tenjiro didn't introduce himself?
On page 11 of chapter 588, when Kirinji supposedly announced himself and his position to Yhwach, if you look carefully it looks like the speech bubble is coming from Yhwach, its like he just announced who Kirinji was and his poistion? Does anyone else agree or am I seeing things?Skitzo1 (talk) 23:14, July 11, 2014 (UTC)
 * I am inclined to agree that it is Yhwach that said it; the speech bubbles and Mangastream version in general support it. We'll probably have to wait on Cnet's translation just to be sure, though. Mohrpheus   (Talk)  23:25, July 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * I'm also in agreement here; when I was adding the character page plot summaries for 588, I failed to notice the speech bubble pointing to Yhwach, so I thought Kirinji was introducing himself instead. But as Mohrp pointed out, best to wait for Cnet.--Xilinoc (talk) 00:07, July 12, 2014 (UTC)
