He's really not that important, he is just popular since he got hyped up so much early on. Yeah, he's Rukia's adopted brother, but that's just a good way to make her go super saiyan. He doesn't have that much bearing on the story (though really only like Ichigo and Urahara do...).

He isn't even one of the stronger captains to be honest. Yamamoto, Unohana, Kyouraku and Ukitake are the top-tier unless the Vaizard captains are stronger than we know.

Byakuya was hyped as the strongest captain in the SS arc

although last arc he was shown to be piss weak

I like the last two pages, I imagine the guy who fought against Kenpachi going like this:
"Come, however dares! I'll steal your bankai and use it against you!"
"Oh no! Somebody who does not fight with a bankai!"

Byakuya was one of the weakest captains. What a shame he didn't even try kidou.

A proper entrance for Kenpachi indeed.

edit: and WTF, who is attacking Urahara?! 3 chapter long cliffhanger?!

Yamamoto is pretty solidly confirmed to be the strongest captain by a significant margin, though it may have closed a bit with the loss of his arm.

In the SS arc Yamamoto himself said Kyouraku and Ukitake were pretty much the strongest of all time when he fought them. Hell, Kyouraku took out espada #1 with Shikai. Kubo has hyped up Unohana a ton and Kyouraku and Ukitake are both scared of her, so its pretty widely speculated that she's #2.

I used to be pretty active in the Bleach community when it was still good, when SS was still going on. This was very widely accepted in the community.

Edit: This was the most commonly used ranking:

Godly
1.Yamamoto
2.Aizen

Top
3.Unohana
4.Kyouraku
5.Ukitake

High
6.Ichimaru
7.Byakuya

Is there 2 guys on his shoulders?
These sites might be of more use than a StarCraft site, where the majority of posters look on WCIII as the dense misformed fetus produced during Blizzards latest miscarrige.

Well it's true, it takes no balls killing off all the chars when you are about to end the series. It's like a big fuck you to all the fans b/c even if everyone stops reading it's not like there's anymore to read anyways... and also you don't have to make a big deal with how the death affects the dynamics of the rest of the chars in the long run b/c well, the series is over.
always tired -_-

i think he was only reffering to when they fought TOGETHER as a combo not that each of them alone is strongest

and i wasnt really counting Yamamoto as a captain since hes the commander general boss guy

why does unahana get the third seed? shes a healer she doesnt actually ever fight

I like Latham's theory of Ichigo "giving them back their powers" to revive them.

Well, the power levels in Bleach don't make much sense and aren't worth debating about anymore, but...

Bankai Ichigo>Bankai Byakuya
Bankai Ichigo<<Ulquiorra
Stark>Ulquiorra
Shikai Kyouraku>Stark
Kyouraku>Byakuya!

Experience, knowing when to fight and when to be passive. Getting "hyped" by other top tier Captains. Healers are also imba. She's so scary that Aizen didn't fight her!

Forgot he used his mask, but he used it against both Byakuya and Ulquiorra, so it doesn't change much.

Ukitake was helping against Stark in the beginning, but by the time Stark released and started fighting seriously, it was just Kyouraku.

Obviously these types of comparisons are pointless though in a serious as inconsistent and illogical as Bleach, but for realz, Byakuya is only like 6th-8th strongest out of the original 13.

Talking about the commander Yamato losing his arm, why is his arm still gone and Soi Fon got hers back? Somehow I think Kubo just forgot Soi Fon lost her arm against the 2nd Espada.
