Tsukishima just made it so they trained a lot together. The whole time they were still talking like enemies. The debt owed was that Tsuki made Byakuya punch him through the chest. Byakua apparently enjoyed that.

Regardless it was all stupid.

So a whole bunch of shit suddenly makes sense now. Or appears to make sense. Now we know why Ichigo's bankai has been SOOOOOO SLOWWWWWWWWW, why his spiritual pressure post-Bankai acquisition did not seem to adversely affect his "normal" friends all that much, how Soul Society seemed to know exactly what was going on with him and where he generally was (though you could argue all they had to do was scan for spiritual pressure anyway), and a whole mess of other things.

Also, the "truth" was not nearly as mind blowing as he was making it out to believe. Like, seriously? Not really all that big of a betrayal. At least I don't see it as such.

Which is probably why Ichigo doesn't really seem too freaked out.

Yeah, I figured going bankai was basically amounting to "OKAY, I'VE HEARD ENOUGH, SHUT THE HELL UP!"

Seriously. Ichigo knew the score with SS before he even waltzed in there. You'd think Ginjou would've done his homework.

Aerozord · 11-23-2011, 06:37 PM

is it really that bad? I mean his spiritual pressure running amok was a huge problem. It drew ghosts and hollows, forcibly activated peoples dormant powers, even threatened his life multiple times and all of that was before he even got shikai. How is suppressing it in human form bad?

It is implied they do this when he is a soul reaper too, but all the others of his power level have it suppressed for similar reasons too. Even barring all that it makes sense to keep tabs on him. Take the government for example, ally or not every nation tries to keep tabs on each other. None of this seems malicious, deceitful yes, but if they viewed Ichigo as a likely threat why restore his powers at all.

They have all these power limiters when they exit SS, it only makes sense he can't run around at full power.

Arcanum · 11-23-2011, 07:39 PM

Yeah since he's not part of a squad he doesn't have one of those flower-tattoo power limiters so the badge is a way around that. And they store and analyze his reiatsu so they know how to take him out if he ever becomes a problem. This is all very sane and logical and as of right now I don't get why Ginjou and Isshin (and Urahara I guess but he seemed rather nonchalant about Ichigo finding out) are making a big deal out of this.

Unless that's the catch. Since everything in Bleach is usually so stupid, the one thing that is actually sane and makes sense is what is evil and horrible and stupid in the bleachverse.

It doesn't seem like ichigo's going to even buy it anyway.

Ecks · 11-23-2011, 11:48 PM

I just think he doesn't give a shit either way. It could very well be true, but how the fuck does that affect him? Half of those Captains rebelled on his behalf (or on behalf of his mission) in the first place, the badge was essentially just a necessary precaution. Ginjou seems to live in this world where OMG SOMEONE WITHHELD SOMETHING FROM ME, IT'S SUCH A BETRAYAL, I'M SO FUCKING IMPORTANT THAT I DESERVE SPECIAL PRIVILEGES, FUCK THE FACT THAT SOUL SOCIETY HAS ENTIRE DIMENSIONS TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT, I'M SO ABOVE ALL THAT I DESERVE PRIORITY ATTENTION WAAAAAAAH.

Considering he siphoned some of the power from all the fullbringers he recruited so that his special powers were even more special, I'm pretty sure what you wrote is 100% correct.
