What kind of person is Sousuke Aizen?

(Quote : BLEACH anime)

Sousuke Aizen is a character who wears glasses in the beginning, and is not only an excellent character, but also a special teacher at a school that trains Soul Reapers called Reijutsuin. But his true nature is ruthless and ambitious. He will use any means necessary to achieve his goal, slandering others without any hesitation, and ruthlessly eliminating anyone he sees as an obstacle. For example, he eliminated Shinji Hirako and Kisuke Urahara, and treated Hinamori and Izuru badly as his own pawn.

110 years ago, he was a subordinate of Shinji Hirako and served as the vice-captain of the 5th division. He was promoted to 5th division Captain after eliminating Shinji Hirako. He has subordinates such as Gin Ichimaru and Tousen Kaname to help him accomplish his goals.

Sousuke Aizen is the biggest villain in Bleach and is said to be the strongest in the series.

When he gets involved, I get the feeling that he's plotting something, which gives me a scary image.

He was talented but ambitious, so he looked down on those around him as monkeys.

Aizen and Gin Ichimaru

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Aizen trusted Gin the most. Aizen once said, "I can't imagine anyone other than Gin as my vice captain," and Gin was the only one who taught Aizen how to escape Aizen's Zanpakutou Kyoukasuigetsu.

In the story, Aizen is betrayed by Gin and becomes enraged, which is unusual for him, and Gin is also the character who deals Aizen the most fatal blow in the story.

Gin holds a grudge against Aizen for hurting his childhood friend Rangiku.

Aizen and Tousen Kaname

Aizen and Tousen's meeting is depicted in the BLEACH novel "Can't Fear Your Own World." It turns out that the Shinigami who killed Tousen's best friend was Tokitada Tsunayashiro, and it was Aizen who extended a helping hand to Tousen after the loss of his best friend.

Tousen is the Shinigami who was most loyal to Aizen. In the story, Tousen reconciled with Sajin Komamura and Shuhei Hisagi after their battle, but was soon killed by Aizen. Tousen had told Aizen to kill him immediately if he ever betrayed Aizen. Aizen considered this a mercy for his most loyal subordinate, but when he heard Tousen's request he was worried about losing another one of his subordinates and was worried about the future.

About Sousuke Aizen Zanpakutou

Shikai：Kyouka Suigetu (鏡花水月)

(Quote : BLEACH anime)

Aizen's Zanpakutou Shikai name is Kyouka Suigetu and written in kanji as "鏡花水月", Directly translated "鏡" = Mirror, "花" = Flower, "水" = Water, "月" = Moon. This is one of the Japanese four-character idioms, and it means something that can be seen with the eyes but cannot be touched, like a flower reflected in a mirror or the moon reflected on the surface of water. Trigger Command is "Break it up."

This Zanpakutou ability can control the five senses and the ability to feel spiritual pressure of those who see the activation of this ability, It's complete hypnosis, so to speak. For example, Aizen can recognize a person who is different from Aizen as Aizen and use it as a decoy. In the story, Momo Hinamori was used as a decoy, making the opponent think that he had defeated Aizen, and taking advantage of the opportunity to defeat him.

This Zanpakutou has the weak points that it can't block wide-range attacks, it can't use with blind people from the beginning, and it can't be hypnotized if it touches the blade before the ability is activated, but Aizen covers that well. Since there is no explanation of this Zanpakutou Shikai or Bankai in the work.

The scene where Hitsugaya was tricked by Aizen and hurt Hinamori was shocking.

This is Zanpakutou who can do the strongest hypnosis in the anime! !

Aizen's Bankai Consideration

Aizen's Bankai was not depicted in BLEACH, but I would like to consider some aspects of Aizen's Bankai. Firstly, Aizen's Zanpakutou ability is total hypnosis of the five senses, which means it can be considered a Bankai that enhances this ability.

But why didn't Aizen use Bankai in the story? It's possible that it's a Bankai that requires a significant cost to use. For example, using the Bankai of Kenpachi Kuruyashiki came at the cost of not being able to use Shikai for the next six months, and it is likely that Aizen's Bankai also came at a similar cost.

Aizen's Bankai may be revealed in the next BLEACH episode, so be sure to check it out.

What's Sousuke's purpose?

(Quote : BLEACH anime)

Aizen's ultimate goal seems to be to become ruler of Soul Society. To do so, he acquired the source of power of the Soul Reaper called Hougyoku, developed by Kisuke Urahara, and tried to fuse it with himself.

Reiou is currently in actual control of Soul Society, but he was only a sacrificial king in name. Aizen had doubts about this and decided to take action, thinking that he should become the king.

He made Gin Ichimaru and Kaname Tousen his subordinates, and tricked Izuru Kira, Momo Hinamori, and other Soul Reapers into using them as his research materials. After researching Hollow, he betrayed the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, took control of Hueco Mundo's Arrancer, and attempted to invade from this world. At that time, Aizen's ambitions were dashed at the hands of Ichigo Kurosaki, defeated by Ichigo's last Bankai, and finally secured by Kisuke Urahara. Since he had already fused with Hougyoku, he became an unkillable being and was imprisoned with his limbs and senses bound.

Although Aizen was a villain in the work, it seems that his achievement when he was The Thirteen Court Guard Squads was great. For example, he raised the salaries of his soldiers, and his ideas for effective Kido training methods were even published in textbooks. Shinji Hirako said when he was working with Aizen, "I would be lying if you asked me if I ever thought it was fun even though we were together for a long time. Certainly, there were times when it was fun."

I would say that Aizen is more of a serious ambitious person than a complete bad guy.

His earnestness made his subordinates feel loyal. He is truly charismatic.

What is Sousuke Aizen Battle Record?

(Quote : BLEACH anime)

Aizen Battle Record is 7 win, 2 lose. I guess it's charismatic.

Aizen excelled in various fields such as swordsmanship, kido, and reiatsu, and was counted as one of YHWACH's special forces. Aizen's strength lies in his overall strength, and in most battles he instantly kills his opponents.

If his attempt to conquer the world had been successful, it would have been a disaster.

wankiti-kun

Aizen Vs Sajin Komamura【Soul Society Arc】

The strength of Aizen's Kido was proven in his fight against Sajin Komamura. Normally, Kido requires chanting, but Aizen used Hado #90 Kurohitsugi without chanting on Sajin Komamura. Although Kido's chanting-free spell only has one-third of the power when cast, he was able to take down Captain-class Sajin Komamura with one hit.

The other captains were astonished by Aizen and Sajin's fight, and there was a heated debate among Bleach fans at the time about Sajin being too weak.

Aizen Vs Shinji Hirako【Fake Karakura Town Arc】

This was also a battle that proved Aizen's power. In the battle between Aizen and Shinji Hirako, Shinji Hirako's Zanpakutou, Sakanade, was activated. This ability reverses the opponent's five senses, left and right, up and down. However, Aizen got used to it after a few confrontations, and won by a landslide with Kyoukasuigetsu, a superior Zanpakutou to Sakanade.

Aizen Vs Yamamoto Genryusai【Fake Karakura Town Arc】

In the battle between Aizen and Yamamoto, Aizen's intelligence was most clearly demonstrated. Aizen realized that he could not defeat Yamamoto, so he created Wonderweiss Margela, an Arrancer that only sealed Yamamoto's power, and succeeded in sealing Yamamoto's Zanpakutou, but Yamamoto defeated Wonderweiss Margela with just his bare hands. However, Yamamoto's Zanpakutou Ryujinjakka, which was sealed inside Wonderweiss Margela, exploded, and Yamamoto was seriously injured and was no longer in a position to fight Aizen properly. It seems that Aizen's careful planning led to this victory.

Aizen Vs Ichigo Kurosaki【Fake Karakura Town Arc】

In Aizen's battle with Ichigo, Aizen absorbed Hougyoku into his body, giving him godlike powers, making most Shinigami powers no match for him. However, Ichigo's final Bankai allowed him to lose his Shinigami powers but at the cost of temporarily gaining overwhelming strength and defeating Aizen. I'll never forget the look on Aizen's face when he thought he had cut through the mountain with his own power, only to find out it was Ichigo who did it.

Aizen Vs Yhwach【The Thousand-Year Blood War Arc】

After being defeated by Ichigo, Aizen was imprisoned in Muken, the highest prison in Soul Society, but was enlisted by Kyooraku to help out when Yawach invaded. Aizen eventually became Ichigo's support and used his own Kyoukasuigetsu to trick Yhwach, giving Ichigo a chance to defeat him. Aizen was quite active in TYBW, taking down Quincy while sitting down, despite having numerous restraints attached to his body.

Aizen Vs Other Shinigami

In Aizen's fights with other Shinigami, Aizen's raw fighting ability seems to be quite high, as he is able to stop swords with his bare hands and defeat them barehanded using Hakuda and Shunpo. Although he was very talented during his time at the Shinigami Academy, he never showed off his skills to others, which is probably why many Shinigami underestimated Aizen.
