How to Contribute[]

If you come across anything while reading the Bleach manga, watching the anime, or playing one of the many video games that you believe fits within the scope of the project, add it to the section below titled User Found Inconsistencies. This Project Page will not have a references section, so please do not use <ref> tags, as they will not show up. To cite the source of any inconsistencies you find, simply include them with the information ("Episode 366", "Chapter 420", "Bleach: Dark Souls" are examples of how to cite the sources). When they are added, the Project Head or another member of the Bleach Wiki team will determine if it is a valid inconsistency.

User Found Inconsistencies[]

Place any inconsistencies you find in this section to be judged:

  • Tōshirō Hitsugaya has admitted his Shikai can only produce a small amount of ice in comparison to what his Bankai can produce. (Chapter 548, pages 14-15) However, during his fight with Hyōrinmaru, Hitsugaya not only uses one of his Bankai's techniques with his Shikai, but also created an enormous amount of ice with it. (The Awakening Hyōrinmaru! Hitsugaya's Fierce Fight)
  • In manga chapter 001. Death & Strawberry, Rukia Kuchiki arrives in Karakura Town and appears at the Kurosaki Clinic to fight Fishbone D within the same day. In anime episode 1, The Day I Became a Shinigami, there is an extra day between these events.
  • In manga Chapter 1 page 13, Yuzu informs Ichigo that he has a "friend" haunting him, even though it is mentioned later in the manga that she has no ability to see spirits.
  • In chapter 1 page 9, Ichigo states that he was born with the ability to see spirits, and in chapter 19 page 7, he further elaborates that he could see them so clearly, he could not tell the difference between humans and ghosts when he was young. However, in episode 2, Ichigo claims that he has only recently been able to see and interact with spirits when talking about the death of Orihime Inoue's brother three years ago.
  • In episode 44, when preparing to activate his Bankai, Mayuri Kurotsuchi has already released and maintained his Shikai, Ashisogi Jizō; however, when the dust first clears, his Zanpakutō is in its sealed state, and only returns to its Shikai form a few cuts later.
  • In chapter 59 page 9, Rukia states that it has been 40 years since she was adopted into the Kuchiki Clan; however, in chapter 179 page 14, Byakuya states that he found and adopted Rukia 49 years ago.
  • In chapter 146, Tōsen initially creates 9 large rings when activating his Bankai, but after sending them out, 10 are visible.

Approved Inconsistencies[]

The following is a list of inconsistencies that have been approved after being placed on the above list:

  • In Bleach: The 3rd Phantom, the captain of the Fifth Division one hundred years before the start of the series is Seigen Suzunami, rather than Shinji Hirako. Despite this, Shinji still appears in the game as a member of the Visored.vg
    • The Fifth Division also has Kaien Shiba among its seated officers in this game. However, Kaien has only ever been shown as a member of the Thirteenth Division in canon material.
  • In Bleach: Memories of Nobody, instead of destroying a victim's body with a Hōmonka, a second stab from Suzumebachi bifurcates its victim, who fades away afterwards.m
  • After defeating Sōsuke Aizen in the anime, Ichigo Kurosaki does not immediately lose his powers as he did in the manga. Instead, he retains them for one more whole story arc written specifically for the anime.f
  • In Episode 250, an unseated Shinigami is shown wielding two swords while not in his Shikai state. However, it was directly stated by Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto that the only Shinigami whose Zanpakutō has this property is Shunsui Kyōraku.f
  • Although Kenpachi Zaraki had no skill in Hohō prior to his battle with Gremmy Thoumeaux, there are instances among other Bleach media where he displays an ability to use it:
    • In Episode 249, Kenpachi uses Shunpo to move in front of a rogue Kokujō Tengen Myō'ō.f

  • During a short scene in Episode 14 and in Bleach: Fade to Black, Tessai Tsukabishi is shown with a beard.am
  • During the Zanpakutō Rebellion, Muramasa was able to control "Zangetsu", despite the latter not being a true Zanpakutō.f However, Zangetsu's status as the source of Ichigo's Quincy powers wouldn't be revealed for another few story arcs.
  • Despite the fact that Sajin Komamura's Bankai, Kokujō Tengen Myō'ō is supposed to copy his every move, it takes on a different stance when he releases it in 327. Knockdown Monsters. Later in the same chapter, Komamura's left hand is partially closed while Myō'ō's is hanging open above him.c
  • While the Kurosaki family is visiting Masaki's grave, Tatsuki Arisawa states that Masaki died when Ichigo was 9 years old, six years before the series began. Two years later, when Isshin tells Ichigo about the Auswählen , he states that it happened "9 years ago".c
