    I'm hoping for Shikai. Bankai would be cool, but it'd be too big a jump and i don't think it'd fit Kenpachi's style very well. He was simply destroying Noitra before, so an upgrade to Shikai should be plenty enough to deal with him now.

    Btw, did anyone else laugh their ass off at Ken and Yachiru talking about cutting Noitra's arms off? Lol best part of the whole episode IMO.

    Yea, I laughed at that part too. Nice comedy relief during that intense action.

    I can't see a way for Zaraki to fight evenly with Nnoita without, like Archangel said, breaking the laws of power in Bleach, since that eye-patch is off and he's still struggling against the six-armed opponent.
    I am training in the shadows.
    Currently playing: All of your games, probably.

    His sword is already in Shikai, isn't it? I thought it was like Ichigo's.

    That was great lol. "Ok, I'll leave him with one." Noitra looked about ready to chew nails.

    If it is, then what is its special power? Ichigo can shoot that energy charge, but I can't recall Kenpachi showing any fancy powers. Slicing those buildings back then was probably nothing but emitting insane reiatsu in general.

    The scene where Kenpachi talks about it was not exactly clear. He said his sword was like Ichigo's, always in Shikai since he couldn't lower his reiatsu enough to reseal it. This makes sense given the explanation about Ichigo not being able to seal his sword and Kenpachi's obviously insane reiatsu but you have to wonder if the user never discovered the name of their sword would enough power just break it free anyways?

    Until we see something more about his sword it is going to be hard to say one way or the other.

    I suppose that could be true, but as Kraco said the other characters Shikai come with some kind of special ability and as far as we've seen or been told Kenpachi's has none. Also even Ichigo's Zanpaktou didn't go permanent shikai until her learned it's name. The show has never really told us one way or another though. I don't believe Kenpachi said their zanpaktou's were the same, but rather that he and Ichigo were the same in terms of being unable to suppress their riatsu

    It's not. Using your Shikai requires knowing your swords name, even if you only do it once.

    Kenpachi has never spoken to his zanpaktou. Or at least, not until after he lost to Ichigo.

    But that sword is in Shikai form

    Kempachi is the exception since he's able to release it by using spirit pressure instead of "getting to know it"

    I like how you refer to that one time someone called him "the captain that never attained bankai" as "always".

    Common sense says that Kenpachi's zanpatou isn't released because he doesn't know its name. You can't release your Zanpaktou without knowing its name. Even Ichigo's, who's always released now, needed to know his Zanpaktou's name the first time.

    This is not common sense. This is something you've pulled from nowhere.
