well first we gotta see who can even apply to the spot.
We've got tons of captain class people around..
from yoruichi ishin and urahara (all probably not)
to visoreds and bankai achieving liet (more probable)
It's bluntly obvious that Renji and ikkaku are strongest of the liet. I can't even think of other people that can take on those 2.
Then we have the remainder of the visored, who all can take up the spot of captain if needed.
Ikkaku wouldn't leave his division even if it killed him.
Renji deserves the spot and will probably get it.

I feel like im missing someone important >_> lol.

Well almost all those Vizards who have bankai are already captains again. All the current vice captains have to much respect for there captains to leave, besides maybe the one who are captain'd to the Vizards, but then again it's been a year that they been together so they might.
Also Kira he's obviusly dead or something it never brought him back up after being blown apart so who will be taking over his seat?

Urahara was banned from coming back to the soul soiciety by Yamamoto, but now that he's dead they might call for him to come back but he'd want to have his old squad back and we all know thats not happening so he's obivously out. Yoruichi will follow Urahara so I doubt she'd come back. Also if she would be coming back she'd be taking over Soi Fan's squad if that happened. Soi Fan would in a heart beat probably give command to her again. As for Ishin he wouldn't leave he gave up being a soul reaper for reasons unexplained so far but he's more of a father then a fighter now.

I think you covered them all.

that liet who looks like ichigo and kaien and who too is called a genius. he technically beat tousen in full hollow. if he learned bankai i do believe he beats out renji and ikkaku. I honestly though ikkaku was stronger than renji but that's not happening seeing as how they used his sword breaking as an example but they didnt take ikkaku to the palace to redo his bankai.

hmm.. your right hes in the running too. There is also the kido masters of course, and grimjow and such. I guess they will leave the spot open for now, but someone has to lead the division, especially if nanao and the captain are gone. I can't wait for the new chapter
ANSWER ME QUESTIONS ANSWER THEM ALL!

LOL




I doubt Hisagi would learn a bankai. He is also going to be out of the picture as moving up. Kensei is back and Hisgi admires the hell out of him for saving his life.

Well Ikkaku wasn't "near death" which is probably why he didn't go.



The Kido guy wouldn't be a captain if anything he would go back to leader the kido corps. As for Grimmjow I doubt they would want a Hollow to be in the gotei 13. After all they are at a never ending war with them to keep a balance. Sure the Vizards are part hollow like Ichigo, but they had no choice in that matter.

I know Tite is playing mind games big time So many unanswered questions.

But then again if you refer to that picture above Grimmjow might be able to lol

turns calmest person in gotei 13 to the trainer of the deadliest man alive. done? done.

Gets all the bad bitch liet? done? done.
Laziest man alive, and clearly took the lazy way out all the way.. becomes CC anyways? check.
kyouraku is a badass? check. double check.

Yea He's going to be so much better then Yamamoto ever was.

i like you, your nice, and constructive. i've always wanted someone i could gossip with bleach about
anyways, i really really wanna see grimmjow, that nigga was a beast in the espada i can't wait to see him now.

Ty.

There isn't much people who post in here that really take the manga serious. They just read it weekly and go meh.. and thats all.

I think it's just me, you, Charity, and mcbatch who actually post anything good in here. Vicc and Juicy_J post some good stuff sometimes but there isn't really much people who talk about Bleach.

Yea him and Stark were my favorite Epsada by far. I can't wait to see Grimmjow again. I bet he's going to be looking awesome with that scar/cut across his chest for when Ichigo cut him down and when Nnoitra ripped open his rib cage. Maybe he mastered his final attack he was using against Ichigo, or if were lucky he got a 2nd release and we get to see it.

ya i was about to mention it be sick if he got a second release but i wonder could it possibly be you need to be a vasto lorde to gain second release? and if that is true

could he still become a vasto lorde even tho he is an arrancar now? i dont see why not possibly change the way he looks a bit and what not.
