Half shinigami half quincy

Spoiler: show

But he said half human and--, He didn't say Shinigami and--, so presumably Aizen was not about to say Quincy but Shinigami.

The closing pages of the previous chapter (397) have this translation:

513's out; why're we spoilering still?

[Uzor]

Spoiler: show

In the first one he said "Half shinigami and-"
And in the next week's episode he said "Half human and-"

So I don't think he had it planned back then.

He's got some Quincy shit going on. Get over it. This is coming from someone who HATES Kubo's writing.

[Xno Kappa]

Basically:

Spoiler: show

Bach says he'll annihilate Ichigo and bring him back to base to "recruit" him to their cause.
He attacks Ichigo but Ichigo blocks it using some sort of Quincy technique?
Scene changes to Byakuya, who mentions that although he didn't get an answer from Ichigo he knows that he will succeed.
Byakuya dies.

I'm calling it now:

Spoiler: show

Ichigo's mom was a Quincy (possibly Ishida's aunt) , which is why she could see hollows.
Isshin, a Shiba clan member, fell in love with her and married her.
Being that Quincies were outlaws, this disgraced the Shiba clan, led to Isshin's exile after a battle with Bach or some other dude, and he lost his powers.

I can co-sign this. We really don't know shit about Ichigo's mother, we know there's history between Isshin and Ryuken, it's an easy lead in to why Isshin left Soul Society and possibly the fall of the Shiba clan.

Being a Quincy, Fullbringer, Human, aren't mutually exclusive either. Ichigo's mother could have been a Quincy who are already humans to begin with and are spiritually aware of hollows. She had a run-in with a hollow during her pregnancy and in turn gave birth to Ichigo with latent fullbring abilities. We already know Ichigo's hollow abilities came after the fact by Urahara and the Shattered Shaft.

If anything, I'd say Quincy's giving birth to fullbringers would be pretty common if they still had a decent sized population.

It's also arguable this is what Aizen was planning to say before Isshin interrupted him. Telling him is half-human and half-Shinigami is silly since Ichigo already knows that but maybe I'm giving Kubo too much credit here lol.

[Tymon]

Ichigo is a black hole.

Got stabbed by Rukia and got shinigami powers. Stabbed by Ulquiorra and his Hollow got released. Stabbed by Zangetsu and got FGT. Stabbed by Ginjo and Rukia again, got Fullbringer and his shinigami powers back.

Stabbed by Bach, got Quincy powers.

[Khajit]

No he isn't. Quincies are human. Why does everyone keep forgetting this?

[Weltall]

Aizen was going to say Quincey before he was cut off. Pretty obvious..lol

[Serra]

I think that's a mistake in 397 though and corrected in 398. Human and Shinigami makes sense for the line that "the answer appeared before him" when Isshin showed up. Shinigami and Quincy does not. While we knew about it, at that point, Ichigo didn't know about his dad so saying he has Shinigami blood and is not just some human who is spiritually aware by chance makes sense as the shocker.

[Xno Kappa]

I think it was just a bad translation. It didn't matter at that point for Isshin to cut Aizen off and tell him he talks too much about Ichigo's origin when he showed up as a Shinigami anyway, which leads me to believe Aizen was going to say something else.

"The answer appeared right before me..." is just Ichigo's interpretation of what's going on, stating afterward that he trusts his dad and he's sure his dad will tell him the whole story when he's ready. Not an answer to Aizen's comments.

Oh, yes. Definitely agree; obvious it's just a translation conflict. Was just pointing out the source of the confusion some had.

[Correction]

Ichigo is only now getting his Haki powers? Luffy has had that shit on lockdown for almost a hundred chapters now. Get on his level, Kubo.
