Ok, ichigo obtained shikai before knowing his swords name. and his sword is also in a perpetual state of shikai.. :note it does not look like a katana, as every ones elses does:
Kenpachi and ichigo are much alike in many respects, one being that there swords are always released. ichigo's sword looks like a huge 6 foot tall cleaver because it best represents
ichigos persona.
Kenpachi's sword looks beaten, dull, broken and it has the guard going the wrong direction.. these are all perfect traits that represents kenpachi. because he is always trying to hinder himself, so is his sword. :Note its always looking like this, not like a katana. like every one else:
At the end of ichogo and kenpachis fight he mummers to him self that he should really get to know his sword. because he wanted to grow stronger and until that point had no reason for such a need.
He might have been able to talk to his sword since the his fight with ichigo. but this has yet been reveled.
i agree with all that.......but do u think it will happen or is the writer too chicken to actually do it?
Kenpachi is a foil to ichigo, his rival, whats nice about bleach is that there r a lot of chars that fill this role. Grimmjowe, ishida, others.
I think kenpachi keeps an eye on ichi cuz he feels hes a kindred spirit to him.
I dont think he wants to kill him, i think the guy just wants to have a beer with him and hang out.
Im hoping that if ken cant speak to his sword on his own, why not ask ichigo to show him?
i know that kinda goes against what he stands for, but i think ichigo really could help him.
theyre going to b spending a lot of time together now, so mebbe ichi can get over his terror of kenpachi and say, "hey guy, u really need to learn this,"
And i think kenpachi really likes ichigo, why else is he always there to save him?
Personally, this was the time for him to use his sword, i think the writer chickened out and came up with something lame instead.
but hey, u never know, kenpachi could get owned by aizen and use bankai....
yeah right.
Im asking u flora, Do YOU think it will happen? yes or no......
If he does know the swords name he will wait until its absolutely necessary, because thats the kind of guy ken-kun is.
