Makes me wonder, though. Ichigo was fairing pretty badly against Anti-Ichigo from the start, and then, all of a sudden, he's able to snatch A-Ichigo's sword and make it his own. Thing is, where does he get this sudden burst of resolve from? Before, it used to be that Ichigo either had to draw power from A) Zangetsu, B) his hollow side, or C) some realization that he could be stronger in some way, shape or form. What exactly is C) is what I want to know, because all three parts are pieces of the whole, and can be labelled as neutral, corruptive, and beneficial, respectively. Would then C) be the Quintessential Ichigo, the most Ichigo of Ichigo? Please help clear this (or me) up.
