I don't think it's even shikai. You activate Shikai by knowing its name.


From the official wiki on Zaraki.

Despite not knowing its name, his Zanpakutō is in a constant release state much like Ichigo's Zangetsu.


Despite constantly being in its Shikai state, Kenpachi’s Zanpakutō does not grant him any additional abilities due to their lack of communication.


Also his sword is aparently a male, he called it "him" in the Hueco Mundo Arc. But that's all we know about it.

Fanfic time!

Kurosaki Ichigo waited. The lights above him blinked and sparked out of the air. There were hollows in the base. He didn’t see them, but had expected them now for years. His warnings to Captain Commander were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway.
Ichigo was a shinigami for a couple of years. When he was young he watched the ghosts and he said to dad “I want to reap ghosts daddy.”
Dad said “No! You will BE KILL BY HOLLOWS”
There was a time when he believed him. Then as he got oldered he stopped. But now in Seireitei base of Soul Society he knew there were hollows.
“This is Urahara” the radio crackered. “You must fight the hollows!”
So Ichigo gotted his zanpakutou and blew up the wall.
“HE GOING TO KILL US” said the hollows
“I will shoot at him” said the cyberhollow and he fired the plot device cannon. Ichigo chopped at him and tried to dice him up. But then the ceiling fell and they were trapped and not able to kill.
“No! I must kill the hollows” he shouted
The radio said “No, Ichigo. You are the hollows”
And then Ichigo was a quincy.

Is Kenpachi's bankai, or sword, permanently gone, or is it due to his persistence in raw power that suppresses it? If so, would his sword be able to repair itself if he were to be weak and dying, as he is in is current state?


His sword is perfectly fine, he just has no desire whatsoever to learn more about it and use it's possible strength. It was hinted at one point that he tried talking to it after being beat by Ichigo and that he possibly knew it's name but he's never said anything more. I think it was stated that his raw power from his reatsu is hurting his zanpakuto because he can't communicate with it at all and it is forever in a state of shikai or something.


Zarakais sword is like Zaraki so instead of being chummy and going Shikai when Zarakai wanted it to it decided to jsut go shikai on its own

Despite constantly being in its Shikai state, Kenpachi’s Zanpakutō does not grant him any additional abilities due to their lack of communication.


not all swords have lazer beams, Iakakus shikai is just a 3 part staff and fatsos is just a mace with a chain and CCs underlings was jsut a rapier some Zanpaktous are jsut lame like that

You could call it changing from a sword to a 3part staff or swinging mace etc an ability. Definitely opens up a different style of fighting with possibility of more attack options.

how is Zarakis serrated sword any different from a rapier?

his sword cuts better then a normal sword, with his personality (pruposely giving himself disadvantages that he can remove depending on his opponents ability (IE eyepatch and only using one hand)) his Shikai is waht hed want he wouldnt want any tricky sneaky special weapon or ability hes a very straightforwad guy with a very straightforward sword

Thats due to Zaraki not able to communicate with his zanpakuto and his immense spiritual presssure affecting it though tbh, not because it's in shikai. Though true about it being better to catch and tear, fits his fighting style.

A further consequence of their disharmony is that it leaves the Zanpakutō with little spiritual energy and becomes easier to damage, ironically making its appearance a reflection of Kenpachi's own practice of weakening himself to fight others on an even level


We don't actually know whether or not it's current form would look the way it would if Zaraki communicated with it normally like everyone else. Anything of those lines would be pure speculation.

Rapiers are meant to be thrust and generally suck at cutting things like a katana, whereas katana are generally slash swords.

His sword is perfectly fine, he just has no desire whatsoever to learn more about it and use it's possible strength. It was hinted at one point that he tried talking to it after being beat by Ichigo and that he possibly knew it's name but he's never said anything more. I think it was stated that his raw power from his reatsu is hurting his zanpakuto because he can't communicate with it at all and it is forever in a state of shikai or something.


Zarakais sword is like Zaraki so instead of being chummy and going Shikai when Zarakai wanted it to it decided to jsut go shikai on its own

Despite constantly being in its Shikai state, Kenpachi’s Zanpakutō does not grant him any additional abilities due to their lack of communication.


not all swords have lazer beams, Iakakus shikai is just a 3 part staff and fatsos is just a mace with a chain and CCs underlings was jsut a rapier some Zanpaktous are jsut lame like that


You could call it changing from a sword to a 3part staff or swinging mace etc an ability. Definitely opens up a different style of fighting with possibility of more attack options.

how is Zarakis serrated sword any different from a rapier?

his sword cuts better then a normal sword, with his personality (pruposely giving himself disadvantages that he can remove depending on his opponents ability (IE eyepatch and only using one hand)) his Shikai is waht hed want he wouldnt want any tricky sneaky special weapon or ability hes a very straightforwad guy with a very straightforward sword

Rapiers are meant to be thrust and generally suck at cutting things like a katana, whereas katana are generally slash swords.

Exactly. It is different from a rapier in dozens of ways.

I think the former medical squad captain, the one with the huge hair who harrassed Captain Unohana, looks more like the 5th Espada. The similarities are his weird mouth, tilting his head and always getting right in your face.

It's probably better in some way. Ichigo's shikai is his huge curved sword, which doesn't seem better, but when he was first (ever) fighting his hollow (during Kenpachi battle) he realized it was better than a random sword that he was stuck using while his Hollow used his shikai version.

I wonder why Stark still somehow appears in Bleach. Kyouraku was fighting with dude who used double pistols (again) and after this fight he is wearing same eye-patch as Stark did. Perhaps after next fight he will steal those pistols, change hairstyle and become Stark 2.0 :D

Actually, Stark's power was soul split. Maybe Kyoraku is possesed by Primera?^^

What are you talking about? Stark died during his battle with the Vizards/Captains.
