    It don't think it has anythign to do with the user's Reiatsu. I am yeah Ichigo's sword was freaking huge in his normal state but then again he couldn't control his reiatsu.

    Anyway there are different types of Zanpaktou. Like Kido types like the one Yumichika's has.

    So as far as we know we have: Kido, Elemental and Zan types( I don't know the name for it so ill just call it Zan for now. As it is used for Melee"

    So it;s like this
    Kido - Yumichika
    Elemental - Obivously Hitsugya, Rukia, Yamamoto and Kyouraku.
    Zan - Kira, Rangiku, Ikkaku, Ichigo, Byakuya, Ukitate Jyuushiro

    This is what I think they are anyway. I am guessing that Kira has a Zan type because his special involves direct contact with the opponents Zanpaktou and every hit he makes with it causes the opponents Zanpaktou to double in weight.

    Rangiku and Byakuya use their Zanpaktou special ability to cut opponents. Senbonsakura and Haineko are basicly the same only with Haineko the blade becomes ash instead of petals. And they can still cause the same damage as a normal blade.

    Ikkaku doesnt really need an explanation because he has only been seen using it for cutting. And Ichigo...well I put him their because Getsu Gatenshou uses his Reiatsu instead of Kido.

    Yumichika's Zanpaktou use Kido for their special attack.

    Well thats basicly what I think about it. Feel free to comment :P

    I think it was said early on that a persons zanpaktou reflects thier personality and rietsu. As for rukia's zanpaktou, its more snow then ice. during the last ep, the mod soul mentions that her zanpaktou is "pure as snow". And also that its the most beautiful of all snow/ice zanpaktous. So it does reflect her personality, not as an ice queen, but as a pure spirit, someone who belongs to the most prestigous noble house in SS.

    a good thought there assasin....but how are bankais made for each character do they use the same criteria...beacause i don't see why renji has a snake bankai and ichigo a small but very cool zanpaktou

    Just to add some names to the little list Neo made.
    Zan - Kyouraku Shunsei and Ukitate Jyuushiro with their dual wielding swords. Didn't seem to have any element the little time we saw them.

    Well, I'm sure they do have some special powers, and we just don't know yet if they are elemental or something else. Just having two swords instead of one isn't quite worth calling it shikai, I guess...

    But then again, Ikkaku's shikai is "just" a spear.

    In the Heat of the soul for the DS it shows that Kyouraku Shunsei's Zanpaktou has Wind Element. So I take it that he also has that in the manga/anime.
