Who is aizen sousuke

And he has an astonishing variety of powers, abilities, weapons, and schemes on hand to give him the edge over his enemies. Combined, these assets make him downright overpowered.

What can he do? Soul Reapers don't just use swords in combat. They can also practice using basic and advanced kido spells to trap or damage their enemies, and characters such as Kisuke Urahara and Byakuya are highly proficient at kido use. Incidentally, so is Captain Sosuke Aizen. Aizen already has a kido-type zanpakuto , but why stop there?

Many times, Aizen has cast a high-level kido spell without the incantation and devastated his foes with it. Before his betrayal of the Gotei 13 during the Soul Society arc, Captain Aizen established himself as a popular and charismatic person, who could easily win the trust and admiration of other people.

In particular, he had Lieutenant Momo Hinamori 's total respect as her Captain, making her easy to manipulate. Charismatic people can easily get favors and get themselves out of trouble, and Aizen had the face and the personal charms to pull this off over and over again. This made everyone lower their guard around him.

This talent didn't help Aizen win any fights, but it did show just how extensive his skills and talents were, making him something of a Renaissance man in the Gotei Captains are allowed to have hobbies, and Aizen was known for his mastery of traditional Japanese calligraphy a talent he shared with Byakuya Kuchiki. It controls the five senses to the point that it can make the target misinterpret another person's form, shape, mass, feel and smell to be that of the enemy.

After seeing it just once, that person will completely succumb to the hypnosis. After that, every time it is released, that person will fall under the thrall of the hypnosis. Since the spell works when you see the ritual, those who cannot see are consequently immune to the hypnosis.

For example, by creating a decoy of himself, or other illusions to distract his opponents, Aizen can hide his own movements and attack with impunity.

His opponent, meanwhile, will remain focused on the illusion until it's too late to react. Tweet Clean. Cancel Update. What size image should we insert?

Whenever confronted, Aizen is casual and uncaring, attempting to draw out a conversation and make small talk, which often infuriates the one he is talking to. Aizen initially appeared to be a very kind, well-respected captain and was looked up to by many, especially his lieutenant Momo Hinamori. However, this was just a mask to disguise his manipulative and very dangerous nature. In truth, he cares very little for his underlings both past and present , and is willing to use almost everyone around him as pawns in his twisted game of chess.

In his own words, Aizen claims to be unaffected by any form of morals or ethics as he views them as mere restriction on his potential. He is, therefore, willing to stop at nothing to further his selfish ambitions, including manipulating or killing anyone if he deems it to be necessary. He is fond of long, complicated, and somewhat convoluted plots, many of which do not have any real reason until he reveals them, and frequently appears to toy with his underlings for amusement.

Unlike most of the other Shinigami who appear to have some kind of honor and kindness, including some Espada, Aizen lacks genuine compassion and honor. During his time as a captain, he was known to like tofu , but he disliked boiled eggs.

This optional course was immensely popular among the Shinigami students, and many of them felt great sorrow at Aizen's sudden departure. As the commander of his army of Arrancar, Aizen controls his new minions either through acquired respect or fear. Ulquiorra Cifer , one of his noticeably loyal subordinates, revealed in a conversation with Orihime Inoue that they are all here to further Aizen's ambitions.

For more rowdy individuals like Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez , he keeps them in line through intimidation and mind games. The Arrancar Iceringer also claims that they follow Aizen because he has no fear, something which beings born from fear and despair find inspiring.

Other Arrancar occasionally follow Aizen for reasons unique to themselves, such as Szayel Aporro Granz, who follows Aizen with the hopes that he will eradicate the world of all non-Hollows. To date, the equally manipulative Gin Ichimaru is the only person who seems to be able to see through Aizen's manipulation. Ichimaru has also shown that he has some sense of Aizen's emotions and feelings, correctly identifying that Aizen was enjoying the invasion of Ichigo and his friends and their successes within Las Noches, as well as picking-up on the fact that Aizen had registered the arrival of Hinamori in battle of Fake Karakura Town and was surprised by it.

Aizen's true objective is to overthrow the king of the Soul Society. While the location of the key is known only to Captain-Commander Yamamoto, Aizen knows how the original was created and how to manufacture another.

To do this, , souls need to be gathered together which will kill all the entities used and vaporize a significant portion of the area used in its forging. His sights are therefore set on Karakura Town, which has an unusually large concentration of spirit particles. And Aizen admits that his new powers allow him to let his guard down.

Also due to this newfound power, he has developed more of a seemingly arrogant and overconfident attitude, often not even thinking his attacks or defense through anymore like he used to, or even bothering to find out the effects of his opponents' and his own attacks. In his newest form, he has also developed a severe superiority complex, believing he is now above both Shinigami and Hollows.

Because of his superior attitude and high intelligence, Aizen is easily enraged when facing something or someone that he doesn't understand; for example, when witnessing Ichigo in his "Final" form, Aizen becomes furious because he is unable to comprehend how a human has surpassed him. Following the time spent in the Muken along with his subsequent death during the Vandenreich crisis and time spent in Hell, Aizen's personality began to return to his former manipulative and self-composed side.

Aizen feels that he has been "enlightened" from his experiences in Hell, though what he means by this is unknown. But that alone would not have been enough to subdue those who would rather die than to obey. There was only one reason why those powerful Arrancar were able to function together as the Espada, despite their personal motives. Because he's strong. Your plans aren't good enough. You're going to take precautions against everything else?

However, Aizen is soon interrupted by the arrival of NaNaNa Najahkoop , who uses his abilities to attack Aizen but is soon shocked that the bound prisoner does not even pass out from the attack despite being an easy, stationary target.

Upon realizing that those who stopped him are going to get to the palace before he can, Aizen notes Ichigo is a man who is hard to forgive. Yhwach destroys Aizen's chair, releasing him of his bindings, and Aizen remarks on the amount of trouble Ichigo gave Yhwach in combat up in the Soul King Palace. Yhwach replies that Aizen was the one who was defeated by Ichigo, and Aizen thanks him for freeing him from his chair, as he now has the means to stop the Quincy Emperor.

Yhwach questions why it would be in Aizen's interests to defend Soul Society, and Aizen replies that this has nothing to do with interests, but is only him repelling those who would try to rule over and control him. Their conversation is then suddenly interrupted as Ichigo and Renji Abarai attack Yhwach from behind.

After Yhwach begins attacking Ichigo, Aizen attacks him while disguised as Renji with his Bankai active, only for Yhwach to sever his left arm while deciding to crush him with his own hands. Despite this, Yhwach merely points out that Aizen's sword is cracked before sending him hurtling back with an energy blast. After seemingly shattering Tensa Zangetsu and blowing a hole in Ichigo's torso, Yhwach prepares to destroy Soul Society; however, Aizen, having been impaled by Yhwach's hand, merely notes that Yhwach's vision of Ichigo attacking him is interesting as the real Ichigo impales and attacks Yhwach.

Admitting that he never thought Ichigo's lack of exposure to his Shikai would benefit him like this, Aizen is caught off-guard when Yhwach's darkness suddenly erupts and engulfs him. Ichigo defeats Yhwach soon afterward, and Aizen is later imprisoned again and bound in another chair. Ten years later, Aizen senses that the last remnants of Yhwach's Reiatsu have disappeared.

He recalls Yhwach's final words about how his defeat meant the continuation of death and the fear accompanying it, but reflects that in such a world people would never have the hope and the courage that kept death at bay.

Aizen's Battle Data, clockwise. Genius Intellect : Arguably, the most fearsome trait of Aizen is his tremendous intellect. Kurohitsugi to disable 7th Division Captain Sajin Komamura , albeit only at a third of its power. Shunpo Master : Aizen is so fast, opponents commonly cannot discern even being attacked by him until after it has taken place.

Master Swordsman : Aizen is a highly skilled swordsman, with his skill supplemented by his immense strength. He can perform tremendously powerful and precise strikes and cut through very sturdy targets, such as Renji's Shikai [] and Komamura's Bankai. Repeatedly, Aizen has caught his opponent's weapons with a single bare hand. While fighting offensively, he exhibits tremendous agility and dexterity, combining both sword and barehanded skills to simultaneously strike with his sword and kick opponents with great force.

Immeasurable Spiritual Power : Even by captain standards, Aizen possesses a tremendous amount of Reiryoku. Immense Strength : Aizen is strong enough to stop the blade of Ichigo's Bankai with just one index finger albeit Ichigo was already battle-worn from fighting Byakuya Kuchiki and almost cut him in half with a single sword strike. Kurohitsugi on himself in an attempt to free himself from the Reiatsu-suppressing chair he was restrained to, despite the technique having destroyed all of Yhwach's remaining eyeball creatures and most of his surroundings.

The only decoration is the tsuba , which is a hexagon. The two sides parallel to the blade are long, whereas the four sides above and below the blade are shortened, making it into almost a diamond or prism-like shape.

It has a green handle. His appearance then reverted back to normal in the aftermath of Ichigo Kurosaki 's Mugetsu. Aizen's face is covered with a white canvas, and his outfit is now a white cloak which is split in four sections near his waist. The form-fitting white robe which enveloped Aizen in his past two forms lengthens, and flares out at the ends.

In this form, Aizen's irises vanish, as well as his eyebrows and the hair curl which usually hangs over his face. There is a diamond-shaped object embedded in his forehead. Aizen has gained three sets of butterfly-like wings. The diamond-shaped point breaks open, revealing a vertical black third eye upon the center of Aizen's forehead, and the skin on his face splits open down the middle and pulls back around the sides of his head to reveal a blackened, demon-like skull.

Aizen's butterfly-like wings change into a set of six sheet-like wings, with eyes set upon the center, adorned with Hollow-like skulls, and trailing into tendrils.

Aizen no longer has any semblance of clothing in this form, and his musculature becomes more defined. Bleach Wiki Explore. Bleach Media. Reverse London Magic. Edit the Wiki.

It wasn't my intention to traumatize you. Before you could have noticed, I should have chopped her into unrecognizable pieces. Admiration is the emotion furthest from understanding.

The truly terrifying betrayal is that which lies utterly hidden from your eyes, Captain Hirako. Reliance is for the weak. It is of no use to us. In order to escape from the pressure of that trust, those beings seek a still greater entity in which to believe, and those greater beings too seek still greater, still stronger beings to follow. This is how all kings come to be, and this is how all Gods are born.

Do not trust in me yet, Hirako Shinji. I will take my time to teach you the nature of the God whom you face. Then, you shall believe. If you wish to make a decisive strike, you should do so at point-blank range.

Or perhaps you are afraid of moving in too close, and letting even a part of my body out of your sight? If so, I am disappointed. Keeping one's distance is only a key factor in a battle between two combatants of equal strength.

Between you and myself, distances hold no meaning whatsoever. I am perfectly capable of reaching your heart at any moment. How foolish. In fact, I would say that the very concept of 'power' itself is different for me than for you.

Allow me to demonstrate. This is the true meaning of 'power'. With the measure of power that you possess, you are unlikely even to lose consciousness from those wounds. Stay there, helpless and defeated, and observe carefully as this battle reaches its conclusion.

There is no doubt about that. Were I to fight against it directly, it would likely overpower even me. However, if one abandons all other abilities and focuses his strength entirely on a single specialized skill, then he can overcome even the greatest of powers. Once a soul has become a Hollow, it holds no meaning. It is a being with no purpose beyond idly consuming its fellow souls. Where do you see cruelty in my giving purpose to such a being? Surely the true act of cruelty was your tearing that soul to pieces.

You, who are the very embodiment of the history of Soul Society itself - you alone will die here by my blade. You have my pity. There is no such thing as 'truth' or 'lies' in this world; there never has been. There is only plain, hard facts. And yet, all beings who exist in this world take only those 'facts' that are convenient to them, and take them to be the 'truth'. They do so because they know no other way to live. However, for those powerless beings that make up the majority of this world it is those 'facts' that are inconvenient for their own self-affirmation that make up the real 'truth'.

However, this manifestation will not be successful unless the possessors of those desires have the strength to carry it out. In a way, its ability might be better termed a 'guiding force'. However, it is a peculiar quality of living beings that when it comes to achieving those petty desires that their crude hearts enshrine, they tend to have remarkable levels of success.
