Bleach who is the strongest

Another Espada makes the list: the 1st Espada, Coyote Stark. He's normally a lazy pacifist, but once the fighting starts, he has no equal. His swordsmanship can rival that of any Captain, and his battle intuition is razor-sharp, impressing Captains Ukitake and Kyoraku time and again. In his released form, he can fire hard-hitting cero blasts with ease, and he can summon packs of exploding spirit wolves, too.

Ichigo Kurosaki is the strongest part-time Soul Reaper to ever exist in the Bleach timeline. His unique ancestry accelerated his development and he quickly became one of the strongest fighters around.

Not one for deep strategizing, Ichigo is known for his bullish and abrasive fighting style. This often manifest itself in his famous Getsuga Tensho technique, where his Zanpakuto condenses and releases Ichigo's spiritual energy at his opponent.

This move, even though simple, is devastatingly powerful, as those who've faced it would know. Byakuya vs Toshiro. As the current holder of the title of Kenpachi, Kenpachi Zaraki stands as the Soul Society's most physically intimidating force. Kenpachi does not rely on tricks or any special kind of ability. Zaraki has always been an all-out brawler, a man absolutely obsessed with winning and coming out on top.

For much of the series, Kenpachi suppresses his powers so that he could enjoy his fights but, towards the end, he unleashed his true power.

With his Bankai, Kenpachi is able to deal insane amounts of damage. However, his lack of control in this form currently limits his ability. Lille Barro was a loyal member of Yhwach's personal guard and was the first Quincy to receive an ability from Yhwach.

This went to his head, and he would often proclaim himself to be Yhwach's greatest ever creation. Despite being an experienced and dangerous combatant, Lille is often caught off guard by events he failed to predict.

This makes him weak to adaptable fighters, but his deadly sniping skills means he's still a major threat. His 'Monk of Destruction' form grants him intangibility and this, combined with light beams, makes him a handful.

Bleach has compelling teen angst-fueled story that was occasionally and abruptly interrupted by extended filler arcs, a final manga only story arc that is so convoluted that it probably ever be adapted, and some of the most over the top and reality-bending fights in anime.

The guardians of Soul Society, the Shinigami consist of powerful spirits that can slay Hollows and other threats to the natural order of life and those who pass away. Shinigami spend centuries of their extended life mastering these techniques for the purpose of protecting Soul Society. There are countless Shinigami in Soul Society and more named Shinigami than what the story itself can even keep track of.

However, the ranking system and abilities within Bleach can give viewers a general idea of which characters are stronger than others.

Tetsuzaemon Iba is introduced as the vice-captain of the 7th Division of the Gotei 13, the main military body of Soul Society. However, he is apparently competent and strong enough to get promoted to the position of Captain of the 7th Division follow a ten-year time-skip at the end of the manga. Rabu Aikawa, mostly referred to by his nickname Love, is another Shinigami that has some rather unexplored abilities.

His powers center mainly on manipulating an opponent's senses. Tosen can also use his Bankai to transform himself into a massive, Cricket-like monster which temporarily restores his sense of sight. Moreover, he can undergo Hollowfication and is a lethal threat to nearly any Shinigami not privy to his abilities. While most spells require an incantation to activate, he is familiar enough with the techniques that he can forgo this process, making his attacks much faster and less predictable.

Additionally, Tessai focus on spell casting and unarmed combat make him a much more unpredictable fighter than many of the other Shinigami in Soul Society.

The former Captain of the 2nd Division, Yoruichi Shihoin is one of the strongest unarmed fighters in Bleach. Additionally, she can coat her body in a tremendous amount of electricity and to augment her physical attacks. She can also fire off blasts of lighting using this ability to compensate for her mostly short ranged attacks. The anthropomorphic wolf Sajin Komamura has more raw physical strength than nearly any other character in the series.

His Bankai allows him to create a giant avatar that can attack with massive slashes or physical blows. Moreover, Komamura can have the avatar remove its armor and further increase its raw, destructive power.

The only downside to this method of attack is that any damage that was done to the avatar also appears on Komamura, although most fighters will not survive long enough to harm either. This is nothing short of one of the biggest and most brutal Bankai in all of Bleach. He has one of the most powerful Reiryoku and his Shikai, Ryujin Jakka , allows him to release condensed spiritual pressure. His Bankai form, however, makes his Zanpakuto absorb the flame of the Sun and can erase the existence of everything it touches.

He is also the founder of the Genryuu style and is also known as the necromancer as he can raise the Dead to do his bidding. He specializes in name manipulation , which relies on the concept that those without names hold no power. The execution of this ability is through calligraphy. Due to his name curse , the voices of all those who speak his name are lost.

He can also manifest spiritual appendages of a body and can regenerate himself. His Bankai is powerful enough to strengthen his allies and weaken his foes and was even used to cause great damage to Yhwach. Ichigo Kurosaki is the main character of the series and is a hybrid of Hollow , Quincy , and Shinigami.

In the initial stages of the series, he displayed quick development, not only in terms of character. He also improved in terms of the powers of Bankai and the use of his Hollow side in the Soul Society Arc. Further, he also learned to control and condense Reiatsu. Being a Quincy, he can absorb Reishi and has two types of Getsu, blue and black. Each color is representing his Quincy and Shinigami-Hollow side, respectively. He also has a beautiful Mugetsu form when he becomes Getsuga himself and loses his Shinigami form.

He was one of the main antagonists of the series and one of the biggest plot twists. His most dominant quality is his shocking intellect that is supported by his manipulative behavior. During the Soul Society Arc , he displayed a cunning betrayal after stealing the Hogyoku with which he later fused. His Zanpakuto, too, is quite impressive as his Shikai ability called Kenzen Saimin causes irresistible hypnosis.

As the plot progresses, we are shown five stages of his fusion with Hogyoku, which grants him hollow-like abilities, undetectable Reiatsu, super speed, and strength.

He also merges completely with his Zanpakuto, which then makes his hypnosis ability have no weakness at all. He is the son of the Soul King and is superior to all in strength and spiritual power.

During his childhood touching him granted people what they lacked due to his ability of Soul Distribution. This distribution takes place in a give-and-take fashion. He can steal the powers of any Quincy through Sankt Altar. The power of The Almighty allows him to see into multiple futures and then alter them to his liking.

He has thin facial hair around his mouth and on his cheeks. After the battle with the Wandenreich, Shunsui wears an eyepatch over his right eye that was damaged during the conflict.

As a child, Shunsui had shorter and messier hair. He wore a flower-patterned kimono. Shunsui is a laid-back and flamboyant man, evident in his style of dress and general attitude, and is usually smiling. In his off time, he often drinks sake in bars and naps. He likes steamed buns that go with sake, but dislikes powdered green tea. Shunsui tends to use a more casual speech style than many other captains. He generally refers to his fellow captains and Shinigami by their first name followed by an honorific.

Shunsui does not receive a single fan letter or gift for his birthday from his readers, but he is not bothered by this at all. Shunsui is a peace-loving man who will always try to talk his way out of battles, though he does not wish to insult opponents by refusing to fight. Though Shunsui tries to talk his way out of a fight, he will fight when the situation demands it, such as in his battle with Coyote Starrk. When Starrk asked that they only pretend to fight, he declined the offer, though noted that he prefers to do the same.

Shunsui maintains a level of honor and integrity when engaging in battle. He refuses to fight with children or even in the presence of a child.

He also dislikes taking the life of innocent people, as he left Chad alive when Nanao offered to kill him. He always maintains a veil of respect for his opponent, is polite in combat situations, and prefers to fight one on one.

When fighting powerful opponents, like Starrk or Aizen, Shunsui rarely loses his cool, going as far as to make small talk and joke around with his opponents. In fact, his relaxed demeanor is something that often annoys his friends. He is a master swordsman and has enormous spiritual power, which is why he rightfully became the Captain-Commander of the Soul Reapers.

In that aspect, he deserves this spot. His lieutenant was Momo Hinamori. He was previously a lieutenant in the 5 th Division under Shinji Hirako. After Aizen waged war against the Soul Society with an army of Arrancar, he was defeated by Ichigo Kurosaki and sealed by Kisuke Urahara and then imprisoned for his crimes.

Aizen is a polite and quiet intellectual who often addresses his subordinates by first name. He rarely shows signs of alarm or distress and often has entire situations planned well in advance.

When confronted, Aizen is easygoing and indifferent and tries to have a conversation and have little conversations, which often infuriates those he speaks to. Aizen initially appeared to be a very kind and respected captain and was admired by many, especially his Lieutenant Momo Hinamori. However, it was just a mask to cover up its manipulative and very dangerous nature. In truth, he cares very little about his subordinates and is ready to use almost anyone around him as a pawn to achieve his goals.

He is ready not to stop at anything to further his ambitions, including manipulating or killing people if he deems it necessary. He often plays with his subordinates for fun. As the commander of his Arrancar army, Aizen controls his minions out of acquired respect or fear. Aizen keeps vocal people like Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez online through bullying and mind games. Arrancar Aisslinger Wernarr claims that the Arrancar follows him because he is not afraid, which beings who were born out of fear and despair find inspiring.

Aizen admits that his new powers allow him to let go of his guard. As a result of this new power, Aizen developed arrogant and cocky behavior that often no longer thought of his attacks or defenses, or even bothered to find out the effects of his opponents and his own attacks, as before. In its most recent form, he has developed a severe superiority complex who believes he is now above Shinigami and Hollows.

He even agreed to fight Yhwach and help Ichigo before returning to Muken. When he was a member of the Gotei 13, Aizen appeared as a mild-featured man with brown scholarly hair enhanced by square glasses, along with soft brown eyes.

During his ascent to Hueco Mundo, he removed his glasses and swept his hand through his hair, revealing menacing eyes and a very different hairstyle; his hair is now swept back, with a strand hanging down his face. After Orihime Inoue is taken to Las Noches, Aizen wears full clothing similar in style to the Arrancar, complete with a pink sash around the waist. Upon his defeat by Ichigo Kurosaki, Aizen loses all of the physical changes made by his transformation and returns to the physical form he had prior to transform.

While imprisoned in Muken, he wears an almost entirely black outfit with white trimming, a large black eyepatch over his right eye and black boots. A tattered white rag is wrapped around his shoulders. Dangerous as he is traitorous, Aizen became a persona non grata when he betrayed his squad. He is extremely fast and is a master swordfighter, but he also has an array of other powerful skills, abilities and techniques which make him an exceptionally dangerous foe. His special technique allows him to trap his enemies in an illusion, which then, in turn, allows him to strike them down with ease.

He is a sneaky fighter and that is what makes him so dangerous alongside his usual powers. He wears the standard Shinigami uniform under a white, long-sleeved haori adorned with the emblem of the Royal Guard. The top of her uniform is open enough to expose her hairy chest.

He also wears a large set of red prayer beads around his neck and a pair of single-toothed tengu geta. He speaks loudly and openly, and usually has an optimistic expression on his face. However, in combat, he is ruthless and somewhat condescending, although he is constantly smiling during his fights.

Yhwach notices that he becomes a lot happier when he decides to kill someone. He seems quite weak and comical, but he is actually exceptionally strong and has at least a millennium of fighting experience; he survived for so long, so you can imagine his victory ratio.

His special power is his ink, which, when it covers an opponent, makes it lose its name and with it their power, which — in turn — can make them weak as an insect. He is also the heart of the Soul King.

Gerard is a tall, broad, muscular man with light blonde, shoulder-length hair and eyes without a pupil. He wears a winged helmet and a white cloak tied in front with three buttons and a dark red Hagal rune on the left side.

Under this cloak, he wears a red cloak that is held by a pin on both shoulders, cuffs on both arms, black trousers with a white X-shaped belt and a disk-shaped buckle, and white shin guards with washers on the ball joints. Under his mask, Gerard has black M-shaped side markings on the sides of his face and wears a thin black braid around his scalp.

Gerard is a very aggressive man who rushes to attack Senjumaru Shutara almost immediately after being called to the Soul King Palace. He is also very confident in his power, proclaiming that Senjumaru could not hope to stop his blade with his delicate arms, and reacts with interest and amusement rather than concern when she summons a huge guard to fight him. Even when faced with multiple shinigami at the lieutenant and captain level, Gerard would demand that they all attack him at the same time as none of them would stand a chance in a lone fight with him.

He loudly congratulates his opponents when they impress him in battle and believes he is the greatest and most powerful of the Quincy.

This stance is not expressed to all of his allies, however, as he has promised to kill Askin Nakk Le Vaar if he falls behind in combat. Gerard and Pernida Parnkgjas did not have any special powers that Yhwach bestowed on them, as they were the only star knights who had their special skills from the start. Eventually, Yhwach granted each of them a scripture in recognition of their status.

When you just look at this guy, you see that he is a true brawler. His physique is amazing and his special ability, given to him thanks to the fact that he was a Sternritter, made him nigh unkillable, since every time he would take damage, it would not hurt him, but rather make him stronger.

He was practically invincible during the time and died only when he lost his powers. Due to the fact that he depended on them that much, we placed him on the fourth spot. Ichigo Kurosaki is a human but also a Substitute Shinigami. He is also married to Orihime Inoue and has a son named Kazui Kurosaki.

When he was younger, Ichigo considered his mother to be the center of his world. He always smiled when he was with Masaki and held his hand regularly. Although Ichigo cried every time he lost in a match at the dojo he was participating in, he started smiling again as soon as he saw Masaki when she picked him up. When his sisters were born, he went to a dojo to protect them.

Since then, the number of people he wants to protect has grown steadily, leading Ichigo to risk his life to protect loved ones as well as complete strangers. As a teenager, Ichigo is stubborn, quick-tempered, strong-willed, and impulsive. He usually holds his face in an almost permanent scowl, with his eyebrows close together. Really compassionate and empathetic to others, he promises to bring plus flowers and a toy airplane or reassure others when they are upset.

He works just as hard as he does to overcome the misunderstandings that many have about him because of his hair color and struggles. Ichigo hates fortune telling, horoscopes, feng shui, clairvoyants and anyone whose job it is to take money from people for things they cannot see. When it comes to fighting, Ichigo has a complex sense of honor. He often mocks and belittles his opponents in combat and sometimes attacks without warning. Ichigo has a strong desire to win his fights, but in a way that he considers legitimate.

Ichigo despises those who mistreat their allies in any way, even if they are his own enemies. He likes to wear tight-fitting clothes. He tends to wear patterned shirts with the number 15 because his name is a namesake for the number. Since he became Shinigami, he has become significantly more muscular, as his sister Karin discovered.

In his spiritual form, Ichigo wears the standard Shinigami outfit with a strap across the chest. It is in the shape of a kite with a flat top and bottom. After Ichigo loses his Shinigami powers, her appearance returns to what it was before her Dangai training. He has four black vertical lines on his forearms and black tattoo-like ribbons that run across his chest, wrists, and ankles. Similar ribbons, but with white ends, can be found as collars around their necks.

His development was written truly brilliantly and it was a thrill to see how he developed from a person who was drawn into his role against his will to one of the strongest fighters in the franchise.
