Most random power ups in Bleach

Key foods

• Ichigo's rapid mastery of Bankai defies the norms of Shinigami in Bleach.
• Unohana's sudden transformation into a powerful fighter confuses fans.
• Yuruichi's unexpected display of lightning power lacks build-up in Bleach.

bleach One of the most popular Shining anime of all time, despite some issues with the writing and pacing. The battles in this series are undoubtedly the best thing bleachallowing fans to watch their favorite characters reach new heights of power over and over again.

However, there are times when bleach's writing fails to justify some of the power-ups that occur during battles. This can make for a frustrating watch as fans are forced to accept certain developments in combat that don't feel as relaxing as they should.

8 Tensa Zangetsu

Somehow, it takes three days for Ichigo to learn his banki

• First: Leave it! Black blade, miraculous power (Part 58 of bleach)

The Soul Society arc revealed the concept of Bankai as something that takes Shinigami years to master. So it's fitting that a character with ridiculous story armor can game the system and gain this power in three days.

For what it's worth, players can see Ichigo's grueling training to help him discover this new form, which makes his Bank form somewhat justified. However, the three day time limit is something that most people still find hard to believe, regardless of how talented Ichigo is at being a Shinigami.

7 Retsu Onohana revealing his previous title from Kenpachi

Apparently, this shinigami is strong enough to fight Zaraki.

• First: the battle (Episode 10 of bleach: A thousand-year bloody war)

It cannot be denied that the battle between Kenpachi and Unohana is one of the best moments bleach. This battle reveals a lot about their shared past, and Retsu reveals himself as the former holder of the Kenpachi title.

After barely taking part in any combat up until this point, Onaha suddenly found herself as one of the strongest Shinigami. bleach and dies some time later. It's a sudden transition that fans don't have time to digest, as he dies before the true extent of his power is revealed.

6 The true form of Nelil Tu Odelschwank

He reveals himself to be a powerful Arrancar instead of a troublesome child

• First: Nel's secret (Part 192 of bleach)

At the start of the Hueco Mundo arc, Nel appears as an annoying kid who mispronounces Ichigo's name. However, after witnessing the torture of his savior at the hands of Nnoitra Gilga, something within him awakens.

Both Ichigo and the fans were surprised to see that Nell was a powerful Arrancar who once held the title of Third Espada. This revelation comes out of nowhere, and it's a shame that he barely gets a chance to shine before he's reduced to a comedic character once again.

5 Completed Daiguren Hyorinmaru Toshiro Hitsugaya

Hitsugaya is accidentally involved after paddling for a large part of the arc

• First: Full crimson (Chapter 670 of bleach)

Hitsagaya's involvement in the Millennium Blood War has been tragically low, especially since his bank was robbed by the Quincy. Fans of the character may be disappointed to see him on the sidelines, but he finally gets his moment to shine after his Daigorn Hyorinmaru matures.

Seeing the true extent of Hitsugaya's Bankai makes for one of the most interesting visuals of the series, even if it may seem random. It doesn't help that Gerard Valkyrie is so powerful that even Hitsagaya's full force isn't enough to take him out, taking away some of the steam of his adult transformation.

4 Su Zabimaru from Renji Abarai

Renji had to earn the respect of his Zanpakuto and learn the true name of his Bankai

• First: Rage at Ringside (Episode 18 of Bleach: The Thousand Year Blood War)

After breaking his Banki, Renji realizes that his Zanpakutō never respected him enough to reveal the Banki's true nature to him. It's only after some grueling training at the royal palace that he steps out with a rebuilt Zanpakuto and a new Bankai.

It might be the right moment, but as long as Renji finally gets another meaningful win, fans won't care. The character has lost most of his fights and this win helps restore his reputation as one of the strongest Shinigami. bleach.

3 Shunryu Kokubio Senki by Yoruichi Shihoin

Yoruichi accidentally reveals a combination of human and cat with lightning powers

• First: God of Thunder 3 (Chapter 662 of bleach)

Yoruichi is one of the most interesting characters bleachbut it cannot be denied that he did not have many moments to shine in the Millennium Blood War. As a result, there isn't much before he shows off a fascinating transformation that should have been more impactful.

This shinigami uses his lightning power to humiliate Askin Knock Low War, but in this form he becomes sullen and cannot take a constant insult. It might be an interesting moment for Yoruichi, but to fans who haven't seen him get this moment, it can feel like a coincidence. bleach.

2 Vastu Lord Ichigo

Making a hole in his chest somehow makes Ichigo stronger

• First: Ichigo dies! Orihime, cry of grief! (Part 271 of bleach)

Ichigo can be a frustrating hero at times. His character is a bit too one-dimensional at times, but what fans hate the most is his tendency to get powers randomly without any justification. One of these moments happens after he is killed by Ulquiorra.

Most characters die after getting a hole punched in their chest, but Ichigo is made of different stuff. Somehow, the hollow part of his body causes an interesting transformation that comes out of nowhere to definitively defeat Ulquiorra, never to be revealed again.

1 Ultimate Getsuga Tensho

Ichigo's training in Dangai is accidental and helps him become stronger than ever

• First: The result of fierce fighting! Release, the final Getsuga Tensho! (Part 309 of bleach)

Aizen is one of the biggest villains in shounen history, and the way he fights Ichigo is one of the biggest failures. bleach That forever tarnished the reputation of the series. Realizing that Ichigo would need to step up his game to deal with this enemy, his father decided to use Dangai's vulnerable nature to his advantage and help Ichigo train as much as he could in a short amount of time.

The end result is one of the most unsatisfying and random power-ups ever bleach Aizen's history up to that point he could do no wrong, but underestimating Ichigo was his biggest mistake. He was replaced by the scorned Shinigami, who revealed the final form of Getsuga Tensho by transforming into a living version of his iconic attack and blasting Aizen with Mugetsu to defeat the antagonist in one hit.
