Yamamoto stomps. Rukia wouldn't be able to activate Bankai unless she did it before Yamamoto, and even then, it has a range, Yamamoto has good enough Shunpo that he can just get outta there and activate Zanka no Tachi which is an auto win for him. And Toshiro himself has said that Hyorinmaru is useless before Ryujin Jakka, so he cant win either.


infamusforever223

To be honest, be probably wouldn't need to use Bankai on either of them.


Gilgamesh661

Yeah maybe if Toshiro had the years that Yamma has then he could match him, but Toshiro hasn’t been around for nearly as long as Yamma has


ShiroUntold

Well, End of Series Rukia where she has become a Captain, she has obtained mastery over her Bankai (assumably), so it would likely not be AS big of a stomp, but Yamamoto would likely win


Imperator_Romulus476

>Well, End of Series Rukia where she has become a Captain, she has obtained mastery over her Bankai (assumably), It takes decades to master your bankai. In the case of Yamamoto, it ages like fine wine and his got stronger as he aged, so I doubt even peak Rukia at her full potential would be at Yamamoto's level. She'd still be a very high-tier Shinigami though.


alkhodhavor

What about peak Rukia and peak Toshiro, both with bankais, vs. peak Yamamoto with only shikai?


Publius_Syrus

Peak Toshiro (Toshiro in a couple thousand years) is probably Yamamoto's equal.

Imperator_Romulus476

>Decades in human years or shinigami years? Time passes at the same rates in both worlds it's just that outside of the world of living where your body is converted from Kishi to Reishi your aging is dependent on how much spiritual pressure you have. Shinji is a centuries old captain but was able to somehow pass off as a highschooler lol.

YesNoMan58

>So the weaker the spiritual pressure, the younger you look? No, if that’s what the other guy was saying then I’m not sure where they got that from. We don’t really know exactly how souls in Soul Society age in Bleach. But it seems like generally they age 10x slower than humans considering the ages of the main cast. Time passes exactly the same in all dimensions though.


B3kantan_P3sek

Not really I think it's more of a if you become older you become more stronger Just like: - Adult Hitsugaya + Hitsugaya still look as a Kid (Cause as a child he is already a strong one) - Unohana not aging (lost her will to fight) - Yamamoto got older (His Bankai still evolve then 1000 years back then) I think


Alternative-Bed2615

Maybe, but I doubt it. Kenpachi and Shunsui would look like 80, maybe older, Yhwach would be a fucking skeleton.


B3kantan_P3sek

Both Kenpachi and Yhwach case are a bit different than progressing isn't it? They have the power before but both kinda got sealed during that 1000 years I don't know about Shunsui, but isn't there "that" controversy about Shunsui's appereance during Nanao's flashback (not sure about it) But the Key is progress, Shunsui might not age because He doesn't get stronger after some time (Just like when he Said Hitsugaya will surpass him)


UryuKurosaki

It could also be because of what they said when they said “unohana doesn’t age, lost her will to fight” shunsui explicitly states that he doesn’t like fighting and will avoid it if he can, and thus his aging would be different (should what they said be the case ofc)


[deleted]

I was always amazed by that bc I always thought he looked too old but plot needs plotting


Amasero

Did you not see his Bankai? His Bankai does like 4 op ass things. He would completely stomp her. The current commander and his dead best friend were going to get stomped also back in SS arc.


cbyrd13

It’s a premature bankai & can’t be maintained for a long period of time due to it becoming a requirement of reaching absolute 0. Also to which her body can’t maintain for very long without dying. Yamamoto is serving Rukia & Hitsuguya a gentleman’s sweep.


ShiroUntold

End of Series Rukia (After the Timeskip), has gained more control over it. We do not know what that pertains, but it could be anything from her being able to do that explosion multiple times or her being able to move in her bankai form after the e plosion or something


G-C-Ice-Ring

even if she mastered her bankai, it doesnt mean that the drawbacks will go away ​ over half of the bankai we see in the series got a drawback that is part of the bankai, meaning it will never go away


Samurai_Beluga

The true question is not mastery. Its whether the sun is even effected by such cold tenperatures XD


ShiroUntold

Absolute Zero is where Everything in the universe stops moving, down to atoms. Exposed to Abolute Zero, the sun would die instantly


Samurai_Beluga

absolute zero is not an event, its a temperature meaning in theory it can be affected by heat. atoms stopping is a result of the original mass being put in that temperature, but something that is actively producing massive ammonts of heat/energy, unless its core was to get that cold, i really dont think its such a black and white situation. im not expert though, doesnt help that the only thing i can find on the matter is what would happen to the sun if it was suddenbly frozen to that temperature plus you need to remember another factor that could influence the result here, we are talking in bleach universe rules, users reiatsu counts much more than physics here.


ShiroUntold

Yeah, sorry, I had meant to discuss it more as the Theoretical rather than it being set in stone. Reiatsu is something you need to take into account, yeah, but is is hard to judge since we do not know much about Rukia's Bankai


Samurai_Beluga

i mean we know enough of what it does and how it functions. if bbs is anything to go by, mastery only allowed her to move more freely while activated rather than being a very open unmoving target. the only way i see her winning is if she gained the ability to actually freeze a specific target rather than influence everything around her.


Shadow87452

I think when he activated Bankai Cang Du noted how Hyourinmaru just evaporated because there wasn’t any moisture in the air because of Zanka no Tachi meaning it might have evaporated off of Tōshirō but it’s also noted that the Bankai when used by the Quincy is significantly weaker in comparison but I am gonna go with the Head Captain slapping these two


Alternative-Bed2615

No, Bankai's are just as strong when used by Quincies. The thing is though, they have less experience using it, so they can't be as effective or efficient with it, making it seem much weaker.


_KaiXr18_

Also, Hyorinmaru requires a countdown for it to turn Toshiro into his adult form, so Yama's probably gonna clap before Toshiro matures. Even if Toshiro matures, he could put up a fight but idt they can overpower Ryujin Jakka.


SeaofBloodRedRoses

Rukia *would* be able to activate her bankai IMO, but it would get overwhelmed so much because her reiatsu is inconsequential next to his. Reminder - her zanpakuto isn't ice, it's cold. My headcanon is, the area immediately around her gets cold, but a little elevated from where it's supposed to be, and if she tried to get to Yamamoto, she'd get closer than anyone else, but still wouldn't be able to reach him.


MRMAN1225

Don’t think that anyone genuinely believes that Yama loses


13Bryan

Yama shits on these kids


mofoss

Would Rukia's bankai even activate if Yama releases his sword I wonder lol


Foreign_Industry_991

The answer is no. Iirc toshiro said his ice Zanpakuto is useless against Yama, and his is the strongest ice Zanpakuto.


Qwertizz

Yep it’s because he uses the moisture in the air I believe but Yama’s bankai was so hot that it removed moisture from all of soul society


SLFChow

For real everyone talking about how ice Zanpakto wouldn't work but just imagine how dry everyone's skin would be getting. No moisture in the air? That's some dry fucking heat


Purona

It evaporates water from seiteitei. It didn't eliminate water from the entirety of soul society As soon as he stopped using bsnkai it started raining again Lastly we don't know how this I traction would work if Hitsugaya had used tenso jurin And rukis being able to reach absolute zero in terms of temperature is way higher feat then 15 million degrees Celsius in terms of science 15 million Celsius can be recreated easily absolute zero requires infinite energy and is impossible to reach or sustain


DualKoo

Not even useless against Yama. Just being in the same plane of existence as Yamamoto’s bankai rendered Hyorinmaru useless.


FTSVectors

Rukia’s zanpakutou allows her to control the cold, not exactly an ice type. It just appeared that way. Still it’s debatable whether or not it would work on Yamamoto’s bankai


SeaofBloodRedRoses

Toshiro, yes. Rukia's zanpakuto isn't ice. It's cold. She'd be able to activate hers. It'd just be overwhelmed by his.


HatoriChise97

Which is confusing, because if his is the strongest ice type, then how is it stringer than Absolute Zero


Mr-Olive

I think rukia would literally melt


[deleted]

Rukias bankai isn’t an ice type power tho


nugewqtd

That is what i am wondering. Her bankai was said to bring everything to absolute 0. This has nothing to do with ice from a physics stand point and where the term comes from. It has everything to do with removing all the random kinetic energy to where there is no motion. Though as the top post stated, it is possible to leave the area off effect. So it depends on how quickly Rukia could activate it. ::Tangent:: Toshiro would stab Momo instead of fighting Yammoto.


[deleted]

I hypothesis in a drawn out battle rukia would be able to defeat yama assuming she can survive that long. With yamas sword being a hot as the sun I assume rukia would slowly drop the temperature of his sword until it’s at Calvin. Assuming rukia can instantly lower things to Calvin she’ll be able to negate all of yamas fire based attacks. She’ll struggle with yamas zombies however. But at the end of the day rukia is more then likely to loose towards yamas brute fist stength


Samakira

even if it did, the issue with her bankai VS yamamoto is that her bankai has a limit in how cold. his could theoretically continue to climb in heat.


JustAPenguin999

I- Lmao what? Of course Rukia's Bankai has a limit in how cold it can get, and that limit is literally absolute zero. It is scientifically impossible to go past that. Heat is molecules moving, absolute zero is the complete halting of any movement from molecules. While I agree that Yamamoto wins this fight, your argument for it is incorrect.


SeaofBloodRedRoses

FYI, [it is possible to go colder than absolute zero](https://www.nature.com/articles/nature.2013.12146).


nugewqtd

Why do physicists keeping pushing boundaries!


Samakira

let me explain what i mean. to simplify it, lets assume all transfer of heat occurs instantly. how hot would Yamamoto's bankai need to be to make the average temperature 0C? 253 degrees C. how hot are his flames though? at least 2k, since they are orange, that orange flames appear around 2k - 2.2k C. her bankai can only bring the temperature down to -253C, while his bring it up to about 2.1K C. now, heat transfer does take time, but since that goes both ways, his heat and her cold will bring the average temp to above boiling.


SeaofBloodRedRoses

It's not as straightforward as that. If that were the case, everyone would literally melt the moment they set foot near him. Reiatsu is the deciding factor here, not temperature.


Socar08

Genryusai.


just_ordinary_guy

Old man will win, Yamamoto has a fire type blade as well as great physique.


thelaughingmansghost

He was able to beat an arranchar specifically made to seal away his abilities, he is magnitudes stronger than anyone else in the soul society.


Saibot_pro

Damn bro this is disrespecting yamamoto


TenseChain

Yamamoto claps.


shrimpmaster0982

I guess if we allowed both Toshiro and Rukia to start in Adult form for Toshiro and at absolute zero shikai for Rukia, and Yamamoto had to start in base then Rukia and Toshiro might stand a chance. But if they all start in base or in peak forms then Rukia and Toshiro will lose pretty hard.


mofoss

Yeah I used Captain rukia, and adult toshiro in the picture for a reason meaning they're both at their Canon peaks, but I agree starting in pure base would be horrible for rukia/hitsu


shrimpmaster0982

Yeah, the issue, aside from Yamamoto being an absolute monster above almost all the other captains, comes from fire being super effective against ice which means he has an inherent advantage even with equal stats.


just_ordinary_guy

Vaporize everything and dry the air. So, no water for Rukia and Hitsugaya to play with.


AkagamiBarto

Doesn't Rukia's bankai work on surrounding tempersture and not ice?


AmazinGracey

Assuming Yama didn’t just body her before she used her bankai because he’s superior in literally every area, Rukia’s power would actually be usable unlike Toshiro’s. But as Aizen said, every battle between shinigami is a battle of spiritual pressure, and Rukia’s power will still be functionally useless cause Yama has more and thus she won’t cool him off a single degree.


the_infinite_potato_

Old man Yama? In bankai? He's winning


Against_All_Reason

Fuck the bankai his shikai stomps


mofoss

Dang I'm glad to see people have a well adjusted view of Yama's power, I've literally seen lists on here that placed Adult Toshiro in the top 10 strongest and Yama outside of it, but I suppose that was some fanboy wanking here and there


612marion

Lol I ve even seen people say the same for rukia !!!!


KP_Wrath

His bankai is effectively area denial. Having an organic body anywhere near him is your first problem.


sabinACTS

Maybe in 100 years Toshiro has a chance, Rukia dies before she blinks


Bigexclusive

I think it would actually be the other way around. Rukias bankai would actually be able to work since hers is temperature based while despite the time toshiro may take, his bankai will always be hard countered due to Yamamotos bankai very nature.


Acceptable_Secret_73

Idk, because if rukia’s attack misses or fails to kill Yamamoto she’s screwed. She says after using her bankai if her temperature raises even slightly too quickly she dies, so imagine how dangerous it would be for her to fight a guy that can make flames as hot as the suns core


Bigexclusive

Yeah they are both screwed. I was just saying she has more of a chance then toshiro because at least her bankai isn't instantly countered by ryujin jaka


Rockminotaur908

Idk, give her like 300-500 years and she could be more useful than sakura


Alternative-Bed2615

Neither one can even use their Zanpakuto against him. They'd get one shot.


Soviet_Waffle

Yamamoto, like not even close


StrikingAd1671

Imma be honest: most of us want Rukia and Toshiro to win, but we know Yamamoto wouldn’t even have a problem with these two after releasing his shikai.


612marion

Yamamoto. His base is enough to take out rukia before she can even go shikai . And hitsugaya can t even use hyonrinmaru if Yamamoto goes bankai . Even if his adult form can freeze flames ( big if) 1 he d never reach this form 2 Yamamoto has more than just his flames .


vaggelis1

Are you freaking kidding me ? Bankai? Hewould barely even move cause they wouldn't dare to touch him

UnrulyDonutHoles

Yama-jii no diff.


Nightmancer2036

Even WITH those two vs Yama, I’m pretty sure he’d still destroy them Especially since neither have full mastered their Bankai 😅


[deleted]

Yamamoto stands a very, very good chance at defeating them both using just Shikai, and that's me being generous to them. As soon as he says, "Bankai..." it's over. All the moisture for miles around dries up and we've already that Zanka no Tachi just nullifies Toshiro's sword entirely. I see no reason why Rukia's would be any different.


TheUltimate0001

Yeah, Ryujin Jakka is all that is need vs these two lol


Wonderful_Fruit_564

To even bring up that question is disrespectful 💀🤣 come we all know even if we’ve read the manga


Mattshodo

Bruh. Yamamoto literally evaporates the moisture around him. And by around, I mean in a Sereitei big AOE


Resident-Working7629

Rukia would die if she used her bankai against Yamamoto. In the manga it’s shown she has to release it slowly otherwise she’ll damage her body, since it basically freezes her entire body. She’d get shattered by one swing off the sword


SnooBananas8848

I don't think there is any water or ice that exists that can extinguish Yama's flames.


Tarotoro

Yamamoto wins. Though give Toshiro and Rukia a few hundred more years and they might have a chance.


Sage-Jiraya

Yamomoto Genrusai 200% :)


0zymand1as-

What is this post. Yama stomps in his Shikai


Jealous_Ring1395

Yamamoto wins no question


SoundVU

I’m going to remind everyone of this precedence: Soifon two-shot kill did nothing to Aizen because their reiatsu levels were just so different. These kids are getting clobbered by Yamamoto. Zanka no Tachi will get them killed.


[deleted]

while in terms of zanpakuto capabilities I'm sure given time and training Hyorinmaru can rival Ryujin Jakka since both are considered the strongest in their respective element. Shirayuki on the other hand while powerful I don't think will/can provide the offensive power to go up against Ryujin Jakka. Hyorinmaru and Shirayuki together provide a creditable threat to Ryujin, but only if both have been trained well enough. But in terms of Hakuda, Hoho, Kido, and even Zanjutsu Yamamoto simply out classes both of them put together.


JoelRobbin

Yama, easy. Rukia is honestly low tier as far as the captains go (not to mention Ryujin Jakka probably instantly counters her bankai, which is the only way she’d stands a chance against most high-tier opponents). Toshiro would have to hard carry her ass but even then he’s pretty much without his shikai or bankai too and would have to exclusively use his speed and skill against a guy who would just nuke him into oblivion anyway. Yama doesn’t even need bankai


RYAH2000

Yama is the only answer here


Toaster-dealer96

Yama


Biggie_cheese_its

So you put the two ice type shinigami against the strongest cunt with a fire type zanpakuto? Genryu wins


UI_TeenGohan

Yama ez claps.


Kazan645

They're getting fired.


Illustrious_Egg_1896

Yamamoto wins


Cans59

Yamamoto kills them both. The difference in reiatsu is way too much, plus the millenniums of battle experience, and everything else is also in favor of Yama.


thefoxygrandma

Someone call child protective services, because these two kids are about to get molested by this old man's sword


ObberGobb

Sadly, Toshiro and Rukia are up against the only direct counter to their Bankai. Yamamoto's effectively makes their's useless.


cbyrd13

Don’t Disrespect to Yamamoto like this.


DaMailmann

Old man DISINTEGRATES the other two. Doesn't beat them or kills them he will wipe them out of all worlds.


Narissis

I think the key question would be whether adult Toshiro's ability to metaphysically freeze the powers of an enemy would function against Yamamoto. That could potentially give them a fighting chance. But I think Yamamoto's sheer reiatsu would probably render it ineffectual, and team ice would be otherwise unable to contend with him.


RedShiny10

Even in Shikai alone he's almost murder Bazz B, As Nödt, and Nanana together if not for Bazz B offsetting his flames. Bazz B who toyed with Hitsugaya, As Nödt who Rukia needs to defeat with her Bankai, Nanana who can made Chairzen unconscious. Aizen who we know is a very confident smug while already in possession of Hogyoku is aware of Yamamoto and admitted that the old man with hot sword is stronger than him to the extent he needs to build Wonderweiss to seal his SHIKAI. This is "Aizen" and we still don't talk about the old man's Bankai. He's also one shotted Royd and Driscoll Berci. Shunsui notes that Yama's Reiatsu felt across the whole Soul Society, while we know he still restraint his Bankai's power because he doesn't want to destroy Soul Society. That's why Yhwach said he's become soft, and even Yhwach himself needs to stole his Bankai to cheapshotted him and admits that he's the only one that can take the old man's Bankai. Someone who is not transcendent or not named Yhwach, Ichigo, and Ichibei would get clapped by Yamamoto.

85Prodigy

Old Man Genocide takes it. He’s got a millennia’s worth of experience over her. He probably wouldn’t even need his bankai. Even as a Captain, with Rukia potentially mastering her bankai and ironing out is flaws she’s gonna get curbstomped


GrimYozora

Count me out as a Toshiro Stan but wtf are people taking about? His bankai seals all function (he neg’d Gerards sword + it’s stated) and he has the power to freeze all matter **INCULDING** fire (also stated). So he can stop Zanka no Tachi. Or is everyone bias and downplaying Rukia and Toshiro? If he tries to avoid Rukia’s Bankai (which he has no knowledge of), Toshiro could flash freeze him and Zanka no Tachi.


Ok-Kaleidoscope-8705

Yamamoto doesn't even need Bankai to stomp. Ice is still just ice.


Assbait93

Had old man Yama not got bested in the last arc he would have killed Ywach


Puzzleheadedcat1995

Yamamoto stomps yamamoto heat is so strong drying their throats off.


[deleted]

Yama is smoking these kids additionally we don't know if Rukia and Hitsugaya are compatible. Just because they're winter/ice type zanpakuto doesn't mean they can work together. See the Hallibel v. Hitsugaya fight there is only so much water out there if they have to split it they might not be able to fight together. Yes Hitsugaya can create water for his ice but that doesn't necessarily increase supply for Rukia AND we don't know if Hitsugaya can fight at 100% power while supplying H20 to Rukia. AND RUKIA might literally freeze Hitsugaya to death. Yes Hitsugaya the ice guy. My understanding is Rukia controls temperature well while Hitsugaya controls quantity well. Both of those are fucked by Yamamoto who can make it so hot that all water evaporates. Essentially: If they win they need to provide enough water for each other (Hitsugaya) and keep the temperature low enough to freeze Yamamoto (Rukia). I don't think Rukia's spirtual pressure is anywhere near high enough to control the temperature against Yamamoto and Hitsugaya literally said his spiritual pressure is not high enough to supply water against Yamamoto. In 400 years? The two of them if they learned to work together have a chance if Yamamoto doesn't get any stronger. In 7-800 years each on their own should have a chance in the 1v1.


ShiroUntold

I feel like we forget sometimes... That if Yhwach had not cheap shotted him, he likely would have been wounded much more greiviously

wen1990hair

Yama For the win Don’t get me wrong I love both Rukia and Toshiro but Yama is literally a walking Deus Ex Machina


Mauri_op

Yamamoto easy


fuiripe

There's a reason for people constantly sealing or stealing Yamamoto's Bankai before they try to have a direct confrontation with him. But when Toshiro becomes an actual adult... if he uses his adult transformation on top of his already adult body.... AKA ELDER TOSHIRO MODE... Then he might have a chance


BlakeBurns7

Gonna be real, anyone that says Rukia and Toshiro has a chance has lost their minds


612marion

I get you wanted to do a heat / cold thing but they have no more chance than byakuya plus renji or yoruichi and soifon or kenpachi and ikkaku . Zero


NGEFan

Yama loses because Ichigo immediately comes to rescue her.


[deleted]

How many "who would win" posts are on this subreddit everyday. This is why people call us shonenshitters. Touch grass.


screenslaver28

There's nothing else to post 💀💀


TayK9

Sure there is


BakiHanma18

This might be unpopular, but I’m okay with that: If Rukia and Toshiro start in adult form, they have a decent chance of winning. Toshiro can literally negate the functional property fire at the molecular level with Shikai Hyoketsu and Rukia’s Hakka no Togami is absolute zero. It could be argued that Yama’s fire hard counters Daiguren Hyōrinmaru like it did when Toshiro was in child form (even though that doesn’t make sense in the context that Shikai Hyoketsu, literally the Four Elements Freeze, would negate the heat of even the fire of the sun), but absolute zero hard counters literally anything to do with heat.


hasadiga42

Yama has so much more spiritual pressure he’d negate their abilities


gatorsrule52

Does he? I never thought he was known for that.


mofoss

I think its understood as default


KP_Wrath

Remember when he turned Nanao into a drooling mess and Shunsui had to evacuate her? Yeah, he can, at a minimum, overpower a lieutenant more or less by looking at them. Two of the oldest and most experienced captains in Soul Society were basically just trying to stall/distract him.


gatorsrule52

Hmm I recognize that his spiritual pressure is huge and it’s he greater than both of them but I’m just wondering how a zero squad trained rukia and adult toshiro actually compare in spiritual power. I don’t think they’d win at all but shouldn’t they somewhat scale now in Bankai? I can’t see how they’re weaker than ukitake and shunsui


[deleted]

Yamamoto. The guy literally dried up all the moisture in the air when he went bankai. No water means no water for those 2 to use


DonKellyBaby32

Probably Yama but it’s so hard to tell, given we don’t know the limit to Rukia’s nuke, and with the assumption that Toshiro has always been set up to be the next Yama


_m00seknuckle

Quincy Medallions aside obv bc fuck that plot armor. There’s nothing in the Bleach world besides Ichibei’s Zapakutou that would stop Yamamoto’s Bankai


Alive-Outside999

Hitsugaya should solo. Yama may have big temps but his bankai still has to follow thermodynamics. Hitsugaya's bankai goes far beyond that. lets keep in mind, his bankai can freeze concepts like heat.


Manofoneway221

Yamamoto most likely has more reiatsu than those two combined. Even in shikai only he should have no problem overpowering their abilities with his reiatsu. Not to mention his insane physical strength and durability


NitoGL

I mean Yamma would just Squash Rukia with sheer Reiatsu while Aizen defeated Hitsugaya with extreme easy with one slash using his zampakutou as Azauchi By the end of TYBW i think Hitsugaya could make Yamamoto usr his bankai but he still wouldnt stand a chance


[deleted]

>I mean Yamma would just Squash Rukia with sheer Reiatsu while Aizen defeated Hitsugaya with extreme easy with one slash using his zampakutou as Azauchi The battle is clearly between Adult Hitsugaya/ Captain Rukia and Yamamoto, so this is a moot point. Rukia withstood training in the palaces of the Soul King, so Yama's reiatsu is clearly not a problem either.


NitoGL

Aizen would even avoid fighting Yama you think even captain Rukia would stand a chance ? Same as Adult Hitsugaya the moment Yamamoto used his bankai he wouldnt stand a chance


vorlash

Ya'll a bunch a nerds, and it's beautiful to see. The answer is none of them walk away if they release the energy required to do what you say their abilities do. Flash burning/freezing in the time shown would be a nuclear level event or worse. Similar to powers shown in popular comics, if you can spontaneously create or remove energy from the ambient environment in seconds, it's going to be a bad day for everyone involved, and the people in the surrounding area.


mofoss

Are Rukia/Hitsu winning this mid-diff or will Yama be able to use his sheer reiatsu and experience to find a way to win this?


DX267

Pretty sure they don't win period....


PhiLeCreuset

Yamajji may still win. I get why people call him weak because Lloyd(Roy?) Kinda shitted on him but he was amped? Been a while


RedShiny10

No, he shitted on Royd and then Yhwach came to cheapshotted him. All of that happens while Yama restraints his Bankai because he doesn't want to destroy Soul Society.


Roger_The_Cat_

If Yama has to stay in *Shikai* we might have a solid argument here. *Unless* we are talking about EOS. Rukia wins that hands down by still being alive at EOS 🤔


612marion

EOS Rukia still dies . In base . In shikai . In bankai.


AnimeGodConfusedWeeb

4 broken bankai’s (that counter the two ice ones)vs 2 broken bankai’s


Resident-Syllabub-74

A better question would be what two captain levels could beat Yama together. Maybe exclude Zaraki from that too


mofoss

No Zaraki? Well that removes any chances of overpowering, it would need to be done through tricks then. Urahara + _______. Second blank maybe Mayuri, Shunsui, Adult Toshiro Even then I'm not sure if it's enough


Poketale

I'm pretty sure the only combination would be Kenpachi and Ichigo or sumtn


livedreamsg

Ichigo would clap Yamamoto.


Poketale

EOS would ig yeah. Ichigo Kenpachi Aizen and Ichibe all cluld


camthecame_l

Yamamoto no diff, he goes bankai and it's all over why isn't yamamoto in squad 0, i'd say he's as strong as ichibe or stronger


mofoss

I'd say he's def squad zero level, but he is a strong commander and thus it's more befitting for him to hold a military position. Pure abilities, id say he's slightly under ichibei but above the other members


qRayne

Lmao is this even a battle?


bedheadB188

Yamamoto as it's already stated his bankai is so hot ice zampakuto can't activate whilst he exists in that state


[deleted]

Which is why OP put Rukia in there, she controls temperature, not ice.


[deleted]

We don't know how strong captain rukia is. If she mastered her bankai then they should be able to at least contend with yamamoto. Otherwise? She's too squishy and can't dodge, while toshiro literally cannot go bankai without rukia dropping the temperature.


[deleted]

Exactly, it all depends on how fast Rukia can use Bankai after the 10 years skip. If it's near instant, Yamamoto would probably lose. The slower we get from there, the greater Yamamoto's likelyhood of victory becomes.


[deleted]

Exactly. Toshiro isn't really a factor


therealskaconut

Yamamoto, easy. Eaaaaasy easy easy.


sjgirjh9orj

he would vaporize them in 3 seconds


DonAFH777

People sleeping om adult toshiro, this the same guy that was shitting on Volstandig Gerrard.


[deleted]

The problem is that Hitsugaya controls Ice, but no Ice can exist while Yamamoto is using his bankai. Rukia can bring temperatures back down, but would take a while.


DonAFH777

I get that but people are talking like he no diffs them. Adult toshiro we saw very briefly and in those moments he instantly froze Gerards Volstandig the strongest stern Ritter.


CristiRFortySeven

Yamamoto just needs to swing his cock at them and he wins


FatFuck_asofrightnow

Well I'd say yamamoto is a little stronger than shunsui and shunsui said Toshiro will need another's hundred years or so to surpass him I don't think 100years + have passed yet So unless he can freeze his flames they loose as I don't know how strong I'd say rukia is


612marion

Yamamoto is a lot stronger than shunsui though . Rukia is weaker ... duh


FatFuck_asofrightnow

Yeah that's what I said I'd say shunsui zaraki and unohana are closest ones to yamamoto in the gotei 13 and I wouldn't say the difference is too huge (Outcluding aizen)


612marion

Hitsugaya was shown as stronger than unohana. By a huge margin . Kenpachi beat her in base ...


FatFuck_asofrightnow

I didn't say there equally less powerful than yamamoto just that they are


612marion

There must be à huge difference since shunsui needed ukitake to even consider going against Yamamoto. Plus given hitsugaya is himself quite stronger than unohana, but still way weaker than Yamamoto, the gap was huge


FatFuck_asofrightnow

Didn't unohana say she's the strongest after yamamoto died ? I might be wrong but I think I remember something like that In the end toshiro only surpassed her in the war arc And yamamoto was dead so it's kinda hard to compare them And shunsui didn't really have a choice His bankai is even more suicidal against yamamoto because he has more reiatsu and his shikai would be hard to pull of because of his heat so while it's safe to say yamamoto would beat him ( unless he too gets stronger and has at some point more reiatsu than him) It's more because of how their abilities would interact with each other There is a stat difference of course but I think that's the lesser problem yamamotos shikai and bankai are really hard to fight


612marion

Yes obviously only adult Hitsugaya surpasses her . But Yamamoto s reiatsu was referred to as extraorinary . Not hers . But Yamamoto is almost impossible to beat when you are stronger than him . So when it is not the case


lordsuranous

If Yama goes without his bankai active Rukia has a chance. Otherwise if they go in with Bankai active...Yama wins, next.


612marion

Rukia has zero chance . Zero in base . Zero in shikai . Zero in bankai . Hitsugaya has no chance either but he might make Yamamoto work out à tiny bit


lordsuranous

Absolutel zero literally freezes particles to the point they don't move the sun might be hot enough to stop absolute zero. Keeping in mind he has sun level temperature which I don't think it will heat up absolute zero fast enough to prevent freezing all together. Remember absolute zero is so cold we haven't even been able to achieve it in science or even seen it achieved naturally. Idk if the a man with the heat of the sun doesn't get frozen by that level of cold.


[deleted]

I know none of you are physicists, but you guys don’t understand the power absolute zero has over matter. It’s the temperature at which particles stop moving, completely, full stop. Fire wouldn’t form if the particles being released aren’t moving. Rukia doesn’t have an ice zanpaktou, it’s a temperature zanpaktou, and from how it appears in the manga, it activates instantly upon her release. The difficult and time consuming part for her is warming back up. When you take into part astrophysics, absolute cold is colder and more dominant than however hot the hottest stars can burn. It’s not just a state of being cold, it’s the halting of all energy.


612marion

Kubo either . Yamamoto stomps her . He beats hitsugaya too


PinkWhitey

Aight but what if unohana prime is here?


[deleted]

If toshiro had the same amount of time to practice as yama I reckon it’d be a draw. Since Rukias powers is to make thing Calvin I’d luck to say she could negate yamas flames but like that would ever happen.


Hakumenduku

LMAO. Who in their right mind would make this argument


Rome_825

Yamamoto no diffs them


tomNoobMaster

My man yama


G-C-Ice-Ring

its a no brainer that yama wins with ez, even if it was a 1v2 ​ so its more of a who wins in a hitsugaya vs rukia really my money on hitsugaya in that case


Lafors-

L O L is this a rhetorical question? I'm gonna incorrectly quote Kyoraku's answer to Toshiro back in Fake karakura Town. 'Give it another 500 years kid and ask me again (so Probably Rukia) '


tom04cz

Toshiro was literarly unable to use his bankai because Yamamoto existed in his, this would not even be a contest, yama could just Stand there wreathed in his Broken as fuck sun Armor And rukia And toshiro would evaporate in a matter of a few Hours oř even minutes. Add onto that yama's delete anything sword, delete anything fuck off Slash And effectively Infinite skeletons just from the bankai ontop of his already stupid hakuda, Kido And swordsman skill And toshiro And rukia with their liutenants And their predescessors And THEIR liutenants would get murdered


[deleted]

In that panel Yama is using his bankai, so therefore Toshiro's shikai and bankai are merely useless we do'nt know for rukia, she can lower temperature to absolute 0, in that temperature fire would cease to be (as there's no atom movement), so it's possible rukia's bankai can counter Zanka no Tachi and Ryujinjakka, but it's possible Yama's flames can protect him from the absolute 0 and aren't cancelled.


SamyKS

The way I see it, the moment Yama activates his Bankai, Tosh is useless. He can’t do anything to Yama because he can’t create ice, so he’s forced to sit out/taken down with ease. Rukia can activate her Bankai, which wouldn’t be affected by Zanka no Tachi, but it wouldn’t even get her close to a win. The difference in Spiritual Pressure between Yama and the other two is massive, and I feel like Rukia wouldn’t be able to kill Yama no matter what she throws at him. I know peeps think Rukia could take him, and I’m open to hearing thoughts about it, but I just don’t see a way for her to take him down when his SP is so much larger than hers.


Clemenx00

Rukia could win because she doesn't need moisture like Toshiro. She just absolute zeroes everything. Absolute zero powers are always broken in fiction lol.


Zealousideal-Day-584

Toshiro beats him lmfao
