Urahara's TRUE Power & STRONGEST BANKAI REVEALED

You know that Sensei who arrives just in

time to save the protagonist's life and

this character sometimes also becomes

even more famous and popular than most

of the main cast sorry Chad, sorry Ishida, sorry Orihime

and you might be thinking of a certain

Whitehead Sensei like Kakashi or satro

for King Gojo but there's another

Undisputed goat with Optical Sensei

this right here is my favorite thing a

wacky genius banished to the human realm

I'm banishing you to the shadow realm no

that's right one of the Thousand-Year

blood War arcs biggest Revelation is

that this nerdy goofy sexy old man is

actually one of the most broken

characters in Bleach even more than we

witnessed earlier so let's get into

all of his powers including his insane

zombacto and ban Kai which is most

definitely amongst the top 10 strongest

in Bleach Messiah the first time we

actually even caught a glimpse of all

the hardest overwhelming power was when

he intervened and Ninjago's fight

against Yami in chapter

193. before this orahara had certainly

given off the impression that he is way

much more than just a candy shop owner

where in reality he was so strong to

even agree to take on a newly awakened

Shinigami Ichigo and he totally

destroyed Ichigo despite being at a

disadvantage against his massive big

black sword anyways all this was just

the tip of the iceberg as we quickly

learned that urohara is an excellent

swordsman his blade is cleverly

disguised as the cane or the harder

carries around which even through Ichigo

off what's surprising is that despite

only relying is still a fearsome swordsman he is

extremely quick and precise as you saw

against his little clash with Ichigo

with his shikai alone Urahara has two

special attacks the first one is the

“shito nagaishi” first one

ishi which Urahara used in chapter 57 to

pin down Ichigo and subdues and

immobilizes his opponents on the ground

using coercion alone as for the second

attack Jose a slashing technique that

allows urahara to leave superficial

wounds on his opponents but his sword

wielding is undoubtfully fueled by his

own skills and sheer physical prowess

which is no surprise since he was not

just part of the second division of gote 13 but was also a close friend of none

other than Yoruichi in fact there's

quite an impressive history behind

urahara as we later learn he is one of

the most fearsome and formidable

Shinigami in Seoul Society but to

understand why let's rewind

back into the past order harder began as

the third seat of the second division

growing up the Yoruichi they used to

practice with each other on the same

training ground similar to the one he

now has under his shop he was so

brilliant that yoruichi gave him special

privileges.

Hey I mean for the right

reasons because urahara was also

appointed as the commander of

Nest the detention center for the

Stealth Force which housed the most

dangerous people who are threats to Soul

society and when Squad 12 had an opening

for Captain yoruichi personally

recommended Urahara and as expected he

aged the captain exam bagging the

position allahada had an eccentric

upbringing that is more than apparent in

his demeanor but his closeness with the

self Force ingrained extremely high

physical skills into him every soul

Reaper in the current timeline

acknowledges odohara skill and reacts to his

level because they are nothing short of

extraordinary as a former captain of

gotai 13 it's no surprise that shocked ichibani

and his soggy mind as both of them have

solid Powers themselves but still notes

that urahara is simply on a different

level.

Plus although it wasn't common knowledge

that he had Bankai characters like renji

and others expected he did due to being

a captain once but not relying on it

often Urahara kept it a secret

highlighting how overpowered he is he's

just built different

the goat even in the turn back the

pendulum Arc we come to know that just

how different his attitude and actual

powers are as he Ori childish tantrum

resulted in her tasting the killer speed

or a horror boasted like my guy just

woke up and chose violence that day

literally almost ending hiori's career

his level of power is so evident that he

doesn't even need to use his sword.

Yes for his Mastery over hakuda or simply

speaking hand-to-hand combat when

urahara visited the detention unit along

with hiori a wise Captain he had to

engage in a battle with an inmate this

is when he revealed that he had

purposely not allowed hyori to carry his

unbox though as it wasn't permitted and

since he was an ex-commander of the

detention unit he had always been fully

proficient with unarmed battles to

subdue the inmates within moreover since

being a childhood friend to yurichi she

and urahara had always pushed each other

to their limits making urohara a master

of shumpo as well this is no small feat

because not only could he throw off an

eranka like Yami but also Eisen himself

has shown in chapter 402 but that's not

the most impressive thing about him as

much as his profession with the blade

and his hands or the horror is just as

much of an expert with using kiddo yes

he can use high level bucket door and

huddle spells something that most Soul

Reapers struggle with in the anime he

could even break through the barriers of

noble families which even captains

couldn't do in fact his skills Rivals

that of Eisen as both of them could

cause the majority of spells without

even using an incantation Urahara also

didn't have any problems using

high-level spells back to back at insane

speeds he also knew which spells would

hold back Eisen showcasing his in-depth

strategic knowledge and even overpowers

his opponent's Keen observation of

spells urohada pushed Eisen so much that

he admitted without the presence of the

whole gyoku in him Urahara would have

defeated him with the impressive chains

or spells he used moreover urahara can

also proficiently heal people using

guide though as you saw multiple times

with Ichigo now urahara being skillful

at nearly every aspect of being a soul

Reaper can certainly be attributed to

his insane high IQ and intellect this is

proved by his multiple Innovations in

both Seoul society and the human realm

this is even highlighted through his

successor mayori who was recruited by

urahara himself not even being close in

competing with him even when it came to

inventions Urahara was simply the best

and irreplaceable after all he was the

one who founded the soul society's

Shinigami research and development

Institute since he realized there was a

need for a branch dedicated solely on

development of Technology came up with

some Super Genius inventions that

changed Soul societies working forever

yes the very object that pushed to

bleach the story into motion the whole

Hogyoku itself is an invention of Urahara

this orb was earlier intended to be the

bridge between Hollows and shinigami's

Powers while according to Eisen in

chapter 401 its true ability was to

materialize the inner desires of people

around it though urahara created a

second version of it together combined

with the one Eisen had created it made

the one and only true hogiku which

allowed Eisen to literally become

insanely powerful later on in the series.

But that's just one amongst his crazy

conceptions as one of his most known and

important inventions is the gigai or a

faux body that shinigamis could use to

physically exist and interact in the

human realm like rookia used in the

early chapters even Khan is an example

of a gig eye although a deflective one

mind you orahara also invented a

portable Ki guy that could be used as a

decoy in combat by taking the exact

shape and form of the person using it

basically he created his own version of

Shadow clone node Jutsu there's no doubt

that Ichigo achieving his Bankai in

three days was was a goated moment but

urahara is actually the Mastermind

behind the process as well he is one of

the few people who achieved his Bankai

In This Very way even at the cost of

endangering a shinigami's life this

process cuts down years worth of

hardship for them with his Creations

like the Tenkai ketchu which protected

karakura town or the anti-hero armor and

even the holographic Communicator

urahara pushed communication and battle

development to its Max he even created

restoration hot springs and the

imitation of Bloodhound and white bone

pawns from the lair of tanjiro kirinji

who is the first officer of squad zero.

who know how to recreated them because

they have excellent healing properties

but two of his most crucial inventions

are the anti-halification vaccine and

the shinyayaku when Soul Reapers like

sinji Yuri and others turned into

scapegoats for Eisen's experiments

rapidly turning into Hollows urahara

held them to retain their identity and

sense of self using the

anti-hullification vaccine it helped

them not cross over to the hollow side

and turn them into visors with powers of

both Soul Reaper and Hollow and in the

Thousand-Year blood War Arc that

sternweather is completely threw off the

goate 13 by striking them where it hurt

the most their Bankai yup that's right

yuha had data on every shinigami's

Bankai and the technology to not seal

but totally take away their bunkai for

the quincies to use themselves against

such a confounding power even the

strongest Shinigami were no match after

all Bankai is the biggest asset for them

but in this dire situation urahara rose

up to the occasion to create the

shinyayaku they were pills that had a

bit of hollow element in them that

turned a user into a hollow temporarily

this also impacted their Bankai in turn

poisoning the quincies who were using

them safe to say urahara saved

everyone's asses with with this High

intellect in fact he is so clever that

he can be compared to Eisen because they

both are geniuses who could upturn the

soul Society if they wanted to judging

from how his motives were rescuing Rukia

were quite selfish urohara could have

very well been the big bad wolf in

sheep's clothing with his intellect and

everything even in the fullbringer art

my man betrayed him remember when he stabbed Ichigo.

And then he goes why they stabbing me but

no urahara is a good guy he's top tier, however thankfully all his

impressive inventions and strategies

only helped Soul society and ichigo's

gang in one way or another and talking

about impressive there's no way such a

fascinating man would not have an

equally broken zanpakuto and Bankai

urahara zanpakto is called benihime

which means Crimson princess and is one

of the fuse on Zunpaktos with a female

Spirit usually benihime is in its cane

form but when urahara was the captain of

the 12th Squad he used to carry it as a

standard Katana type sampark though even

as a cane benihime had a blade and its

end was stamped with a skull that could

separate someone's soul from their body

as he did for Ichigo the shikai command

of benihime is okay or wake up which

turns this on pakto into a sleek and

medium-sized sword but nihime's primary

means of attack as the special ability

is a burst of crimson colored energy

that can be used for different

techniques the first attack is when

urahara chants

which leads to the zonpato shooting

volatile bursts of energy as he did

against Wonder Weiss in chapter 233 this

burst follows the swing of the sword and

is so powerful that it took on yamisero

at Point Blank Range in the same Clash

urahara used another ability of benihime

called chikasumi No Tate used with the

nake incantation itself this spell

creates a hexagonal barrier that is

immensely powerful because it completely

tanked yami's direct punch and without

any damage to itself or urahara And when he entered the battle

damn that was something moreover this Shield

is powerful enough to have survived

ichigo's first uncontrolled getsuga

attention urahara admitted that without

the shield he would have definitely lost

an arm against ichigo's attack orahara's

next technique is kamisuri benihime

which fires a burst of energy that can

cut through objects in chapter 233

urahara quite easily cut down Lupi's

here or infused tentacle which is insane.

because hiero is like an arankar

steel-like skin making it hard to deal

damage to their body another way in

which urahara uses benihime is through

his supani benihime technique given the

kind of Genius he is

analyzing techniques reishi composition

and the subject's muscle movements when

they use it this allows him to use

supanay to interject with his opponent

and totally nullify it if he had seen it

in action once as he did against Yami in

chapter 235. lastly urahara can also use

Shibari benihime an attack that releases

condensed energy in the form of a blood

met over the opponent to trap them and

restrict their movement an extension of

this technique is he Asobi benihime Zuzu

Nagi in this technique urahara stabs the

net from Shibari create fire orbs

outside the net that explode one by one

in massive blasts harming the opponent

fatal urahara shikai itself having so

many varied and strong abilities is more

than enough explanation on why he mostly

relies on it while fighting but he also

has an extremely goaded Bankai that

might easily be one of the top 10 no top

three probably in the entire series and

it's called "Kannonbiraki Benihime Aratame"

In fact urahara so rarely uses his

Bankai that even yuha didn't have any

data on it to provide to the stern

readers but bro what's with these Squad

10 captains have any revealed people as

their Bankai because urahara's Bankai

looks like a giant woman with braided

hair wearing a red dress but weird as

this bankai's appearance is is just as

powerful this Bankai has the power to

alter the very fabric of objects its

touches to restructure them for a chat

defense and support as long as an object

or entity is in range of urahara's

Bankai it can be cut down completely and

stitched back like he did against asking

a Stern winner asking had taken out

urahara's eyes with his gift ring but

using his Bankai urahara stitched them

back as a temporary replacement of

healing even went as far as chopping off

his own arm and suing it back together

to increase its strength many times by

restructuring this restructured arm was

strong enough for urahara to violently

throw Ascon off with one swing of his

sword as long as benihime's Bankai is

present urahara can keep fighting his

opponents even at the cost of his body

parts by fixing them as he fights and

when needed he can also restructure his

opponent's body if they are in the

bankai's range.

This dude is too op there

is however a shortcoming of his Bankai

because all the effects are null and

void outside its range and objects

return to their original state moreover

these effects are only temporary and

exists as long as the Bankai isn't

called back or defeated which means in a

prolonged fight urahara will have to

expend a lot of energy maintaining

benihime's Bankai these are perhaps a

few more reasons as to why urahara

prefers to use his shikai far more than

his Bankai as it is literally his last

resort even in the fight against asking

was the last thing but coupled with all

the other abilities that urahara has and

is Heely strategic mind he is definitely

a 4 force to be reckoned with because he

very carefully uses the resources at his

disposal however this makes us wonder if we have truly seen

the full potential of Bankai or if

he was holding back as he let Grimmjow

take over this fight there's a chance we

could see his Bankai again in the

breaths of Hell Arc…
