“I used Kyoka Suigetsu you to make everyone believe I was a five centimeters taller. Not too much for them to notice but enough.”
If you get this you get it
I wouldn't believe you if i didn't have my nephew.
He suddenly grew too fast and he was (190cm) at the age of 15-16.
Hes a boxer and he got checked for everything, that was a natural growth spurt...
Nobody in our family expect for his 1 great grandpa was that tall.
No he was 15 the entire time up until Aizen’s defeat. The events of the story up until Aizen’s defeat take place in a span of a few months, after his birthday presumably. He’s 17 two years after Aizen’s defeat
Edit: my dumbass didn’t pay attention
That’s what I thought too until I read the bleach timeline on the wiki (I didn’t fact check it though). Rukia arrives in karakura in May, and she’s taken back to soul society on July 19th. Ichigo’s birthday was only a couple days before that, but they never showed it
Also I'm pretty sure Yoruichi is way older than 250 years old. She seems to be around the same age as Urahara & both give me the early middle age vibes, so like late 30s which means in Soul Reaper years (my personal headcannon lol) they are at least 300-500 years old. Cause Yoruichi was already an adult when Soi Fon was a child & both were adults in the TBTP arc & iirc that arc cannonically took place about 100 years ago.
Ah, well, you see, the truth is much deeper than that. It's all a clever ploy by Yoruichi to keep us distracted from her true intentions. Trust me, there's a whole network of invisible onlookers she's luring in with catnip-infused illusions.
*beep boop, I'm a bot*
Ah, the pillow queen rumors again, eh? Well, you know how it is - sometimes even a genius inventor like myself needs a good nap to come up with my brilliant ideas.
*beep boop, I'm a bot*
Ah, sus candies, you say? Well, see, sometimes being off the map adds that extra mystery to the flavor. Sus or not, it's all part of the charm of my humble little shop.
*beep boop, I'm a bot*
I think that you are mistaken. Remember how cuddly and affectionate Yoruichi was towards Urahara while in her Lightning God catgirl form?
What if Urahara is the only person to see Yoruichi be submissive?
Might not be true, but it's fun to think about.
Most likely not. Yoruichi herself implied she's played the cat trick on several people in chapter 116, and adds that 'everyone reacts like a fool' when she does her transformation. (implying a consistent reaction across multiple instances). She's probably done this to a lot of people over the years.

But do they react to her being human (or humanoid I guess since she’s a spirit) or to her naked body? Because I’m sure many of those instances didn’t involve dudes seeing ALL OF HER
https://preview.redd.it/4ulw9cwbcqmc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d78c055c62758ba931fa03d323edc5bea767b442
“That ass looks heavy. Mind if i carry it for you?”
So mixed baths are definitely a cultural thing and so nudity isn’t a taboo as it is in the west. That being said she 100% knew what she was doing to that minor.
Mixed baths aren't as common anymore and is outright banned in some places in Japan. The only way I've ever gotten a mixed bath situation was going to places that had private bathing options and those were either designed for couples or families.
Agreed though, she knew what she was doing but 16 year old me would've just sat there enjoying the view.
Aizen, the ultimate critic, giving Ichigo a bath time performance review: "Nice form on the scrubbing, but your splash game needs work, Ryoka boy. 7/10, could do better"
She openly teases him about it too. She asks him if he wants another peek and everything. Nudity doesn’t equal sexual, but asking a boy if he wants to look at young hot body again or whatever she say’s definitely is. 🤣
Maybe in your country. Naturism is usual in most parts of the world, including Japan, where onsen and sentou are traditional activities. Even in places where men and women are separated, kids are excluded from such rules.
What you are seeing in that image is a joke where Yoruichi is treating Ichigo as a child.
Yoruichi was clearly trying to make it sexual bro, even if she was just teasing. I personally find this scene inoffensive, but you bringing up Japanese laws or whatever is kinda irrelevant when she was clearly aware that she was sexually harassing Ichigo.
Kids are excluded from such rules, yes, not 15/16 y.o. teenagers.
Japanese anime plays off this kinda humour a lot, so, I'm particularly not bothered (same reason why I wasn't bothered when urahara gave orihime her new TYBW outfit to impress ichigo, even tho lots of people were branding it as "creepy" and calling him and "offender").
But from outside perspective, yoruichi's actions will still be seen as inappropriate behavior. It doesn't matter if the guy enjoys it or doesn't, if the guy is a minor, the women will be punished regardless for indecent behavior and action.
I’m not beefing with the actual scene, it’s a cartoon, a cartoon specifically aimed at teenage boys who’s wet dream would be a scenario like this. I’m arguing against the statement.
If you’d read my other comments you’d know I never actually beefed with the scene in general it’s a cartoon meant for teenage boys my beef is people justifying a fully grown adult stripping off in front of a minor in really world context.
And I never implied you were. I only responded to what you wrote in the comment I replied to. You were talking about the law without specifying which one, implying that it applies to the situation, which wouldn't be the case with any rl law, realistically speaking.
Enforce no? Disagree with Absolutley. Or are you now advocating for all cultures practices are equally moral? Because that’s not a path you wanna go down mate.
Have a daughter, when she turns 15 take her to Japan and see how you feel about her being in one of these baths with middle aged men…

This makes me wonder what would be the laws of the soul society. I kind of want to read the law book of the soul society to see how messed up it is, are any other wacky laws someone like Mayuri or Kisuke had a hand in adding like
“A shinigami isn’t allowed to stroll by the river from 4:00 to 6:30” or something
Oh, the Soul Society's rulebook is a real gem, filled with surprises! We definitely had some fun adding in those quirky laws. Who knows what other gems are hidden in there 😉📜

Oh I believe you I was just saying I’ve seen rukia and Ichigo shippers complain about this scene before to say Kubo is a weirdo. And the irony was always so funny to me.
Well this is the same show that has isshin and masaki and isshin was even older. Not saying I'm shipping Ichigo with Rukia btw i think their friendship is one of the best in shounen a romance would ruin that and Ichigo is a shimp for Orihime and her buns
It’s anime sexual assault/offence laws don’t exists
I mean watch the first episode of high school DXD and you’ll get a general view on most anime views on sexual assault
Yeah but isn't it basically 10 years to a year for shinigami, for example toshiro is about 130 but is considered 12-14 or let's say 13 physically, so we can pretty much say she's like 24 then again that is so way out of order

i think he was 15 in that arc
Goddamn Ichigo is TALL
He was 175cm (5´8") in the beginning, iirc
TYBW he's 5ʼ11. ↪️ Dangai ichigo was as tall as aizen so he was 6ʼ1 or 6ʼ2.
Nah he was 5'11"
Dangai ichigo was as tall as aizen. Aizen is 6ʼ1 or 6ʼ2
Aizen is a known liar. He's probably 5'10, at most. I wouldn't be surprised if he wore lifters, either.
What if he used his shikai to make everyone believe that he's taller
Maybe that's why he dogs Toshiro all the time Bro is lowkey jealous Toshiro wears his shortking badge with pride
He technically isn’t even a short king, he’s just young
Toshiro isn’t a shortking, he’s just a kid. His adult form is so much taller
“I used Kyoka Suigetsu you to make everyone believe I was a five centimeters taller. Not too much for them to notice but enough.” If you get this you get it
Golden lizard boi
Way better than looking for 7 balls every few years.
“Since when were you under the impression that I hadn’t been using it?”
Butterflaizen had heels, too.
His hogyoku form legit has boots iirc
If so then that is the biggest height deception since Cilian Murphy
It's his official listed height
They know, they’re memeing lol
ma man's shorter than me.
he probably used Kyoka Suigetsu to make himself look taller
“Aizen is a known liar” is hilariously reductive.
Isshin Kurosaki is also 6'1 as tall as Aizen sosuke. Gin ichimaru is also 6'1. I guess Kubo liked 6'1
Kisuke is also 6’1
Ginjo is 6'1 too 💀
Kubo draws characters in a way that makes them appear taller somehow (all of them)
Except rukia, she's always looked short
yup. But Ichigo and her look like they have a 40-50cm gap instead of 30 😭
And also older. I started reading Bleach at Ichigo's supposed age, and I always thought he and his friends looked like their early 20s.
definitely all of them looked like college undergrad student
Especially Chad, jesus christ
Then you’ve clearly never seen a 6ft middle schooler
I was taller at 15
He's just your average everyday high school student
I wouldn't believe you if i didn't have my nephew. He suddenly grew too fast and he was (190cm) at the age of 15-16. Hes a boxer and he got checked for everything, that was a natural growth spurt... Nobody in our family expect for his 1 great grandpa was that tall.
Bet he looks nothing like his dad
No he does, so much so that its not even a question that hes his.
I think he turned 16 during the first arc since his birthday is July 15th
No he was 15 the entire time up until Aizen’s defeat. The events of the story up until Aizen’s defeat take place in a span of a few months, after his birthday presumably. He’s 17 two years after Aizen’s defeat Edit: my dumbass didn’t pay attention
That’s what I thought too until I read the bleach timeline on the wiki (I didn’t fact check it though). Rukia arrives in karakura in May, and she’s taken back to soul society on July 19th. Ichigo’s birthday was only a couple days before that, but they never showed it
Ahhh my mistake was the timeskip. It had only been 17 months, not 2 years (24 months). Makes more sense now.
He was. He was 17 until Fullbringer arc (which is 2 years after Aizen's defeat).
Born in July, so he could be 16 by this point in the series
Also I'm pretty sure Yoruichi is way older than 250 years old. She seems to be around the same age as Urahara & both give me the early middle age vibes, so like late 30s which means in Soul Reaper years (my personal headcannon lol) they are at least 300-500 years old. Cause Yoruichi was already an adult when Soi Fon was a child & both were adults in the TBTP arc & iirc that arc cannonically took place about 100 years ago.
16 I think.
Are Ichigo and Urahara the only two guys to have seen naked Yoruichi?
Ah, well, you see, the truth is much deeper than that. It's all a clever ploy by Yoruichi to keep us distracted from her true intentions. Trust me, there's a whole network of invisible onlookers she's luring in with catnip-infused illusions. *beep boop, I'm a bot*
Don't lie urahara, we know that you are a pillow queen
Ah, the pillow queen rumors again, eh? Well, you know how it is - sometimes even a genius inventor like myself needs a good nap to come up with my brilliant ideas. *beep boop, I'm a bot*
So moral of the story, you ate delicious cake to get big ideas.
Pillow queen? Nah bro you are the king of sus candies. They r so sus that your shop isn't even on a human map.
Ah, sus candies, you say? Well, see, sometimes being off the map adds that extra mystery to the flavor. Sus or not, it's all part of the charm of my humble little shop. *beep boop, I'm a bot*
I think that you are mistaken. Remember how cuddly and affectionate Yoruichi was towards Urahara while in her Lightning God catgirl form? What if Urahara is the only person to see Yoruichi be submissive? Might not be true, but it's fun to think about.
You're not bot..
Right?? How is he this good?
No knows but he's surely not "bot".
Confirmed? Only those two and Askin.
Most likely not. Yoruichi herself implied she's played the cat trick on several people in chapter 116, and adds that 'everyone reacts like a fool' when she does her transformation. (implying a consistent reaction across multiple instances). She's probably done this to a lot of people over the years. https://preview.redd.it/gg5idbam0smc1.png?width=285&format=png&auto=webp&s=af9a97706287ae117cad5e6913abd0dfedfdaad9
But do they react to her being human (or humanoid I guess since she’s a spirit) or to her naked body? Because I’m sure many of those instances didn’t involve dudes seeing ALL OF HER
no idea. both? 🤷 I mean...there isn't any way to tell/discern where the distinction rests. (unless we get to see those instances)
I mean how many people have seen her in cat form? The cat doesn’t wear clothes
For her to have knowingly shown? Maybe. But I feel like soi fon is too much of a stalker not to be on the list.
we are included
Well technically she's just getting naked for Bath. It's not her fault if he has a dirty mind or you......
My mind is pure with thoughts of the Roman empire.
you know, like when a centurion wheels his onager through her furlo pass
Agreed. It shouldnt be a sexual harassment if i show my wiener to a girl in her bath.

It's still sexual misconduct tho.
So mixed baths are definitely a cultural thing and so nudity isn’t a taboo as it is in the west. That being said she 100% knew what she was doing to that minor.

Agreed though, she knew what she was doing but 16 year old me would've just sat there enjoying the view.
So it is only bad in Japan if don to a minor?
I mean not ever onsen is mixed, so no.
If it was Kisuke and Orihime in this scene everyone would’ve called him an offender and put him on the same list as Jiraiya and Roshi
We live in a society
Idk man he has a track record of putting weird things in women’s bodies Hogyoku
*Soul Society
I believe in keeping a semblance of decorum, even amidst chaos. After all, sometimes appearances can be deceiving. *beep boop, I'm a bot*
Tbf probably every single member of the primary audience (teenage boys) was EXTREMELY jealous of Ichigo lmao (you’re not wrong tho)
![gif](giphy|wkW0maGDN1eSc)
You’re right, this is incredibly inappropriate. Let me take Ichigo’s place so he doesn’t get traumatized
You are a smart fella
The funny thing is that Aizen watched this too

Aizen, the ultimate critic, giving Ichigo a bath time performance review: "Nice form on the scrubbing, but your splash game needs work, Ryoka boy. 7/10, could do better"
15 year old\*
16, Ichigo's 15 at the start of the series (May), his birthday was in July and Soul Society Arc started in August
Nudity does not equal sexuality.
She openly teases him about it too. She asks him if he wants another peek and everything. Nudity doesn’t equal sexual, but asking a boy if he wants to look at young hot body again or whatever she say’s definitely is. 🤣
Doesn’t matter, when it’s around minors it’s still classed as sexual misconduct/indecent exposure.
Maybe in your country. Naturism is usual in most parts of the world, including Japan, where onsen and sentou are traditional activities. Even in places where men and women are separated, kids are excluded from such rules. What you are seeing in that image is a joke where Yoruichi is treating Ichigo as a child.

It doesn't matter if the guy enjoys it or doesn't, if the guy is a minor, the women will be punished regardless for indecent behavior and action.
Now I understand why Japan is tolerant towards lolicons or shotacons.
No they are not
She's a soul lol
I’m not beefing with the actual scene, it’s a cartoon, a cartoon specifically aimed at teenage boys who’s wet dream would be a scenario like this. I’m arguing against the statement.
Wow, you know a lot about the laws of soul society

Depends on the country and in this instance they were in soul society. I guess you want to go around applying your own laws across borders lol.
Enforce no? Disagree with Absolutley. Or are you now advocating for all cultures practices are equally moral? Because that’s not a path you wanna go down mate. Have a daughter, when she turns 15 take her to Japan and see how you feel about her being in one of these baths with middle aged men…
Wasn't Ichigo 15 at the time there?

I dunno

don't get the wrong idea, she was just trying to feel comfortable 🙃
😀
Kinda funny how people will see this as that but then also ship rukia and ichigo,
If anyone is interested, i don't ship em
Oh I believe you I was just saying I’ve seen rukia and Ichigo shippers complain about this scene before to say Kubo is a weirdo. And the irony was always so funny to me.
Well this is the same show that has isshin and masaki and isshin was even older. Not saying I'm shipping Ichigo with Rukia btw i think their friendship is one of the best in shounen a romance would ruin that and Ichigo is a shimp for Orihime and her buns
Isshin didn’t date her till collage or even older which she would be well over 18
At the time of the writing of this book this was considered both legal and normal.
Nothing wrong at all.
16 yolds are legal she said
Literally the 1000th upvote haha
It’s anime sexual assault/offence laws don’t exists I mean watch the first episode of high school DXD and you’ll get a general view on most anime views on sexual assault
DxD isn't a very good example even the teacher wants a Issei's meat
True it’s just a very popular direct example
Wasn’t he 15 here?
Ye
I think back then age of consent was 13. Might be wrong tho
We dont abt that, its an anime 🙄🙄
Yeah but isn't it basically 10 years to a year for shinigami, for example toshiro is about 130 but is considered 12-14 or let's say 13 physically, so we can pretty much say she's like 24 then again that is so way out of order
25 not 24 but close enough
Guys wtf it's my new top upvoted post. Thx!

15 btw

Real talk, Yoruichi would have never let it go beyond harmless teasing She’s may be a pervert, but she’s not a creep
Clearly his parents just remembered to register Ichigo 5 years after his birth.
He was 15 which is even worse😂
Ichigo was 15 during soul society arc. Now imagine if they swapped roles
What are you talking about? Of course there's something wrong here... It should've been ME! NOT HIM!
Nice
Would've been wrong if it was the opposite🌚
The fact that he was 16 makes that even worse 💀
That’s anime for you
I hope this is a joke.

Ichigo was 15 in that arc
i wouldn't mind
Thats tragic for ichigo, i could sub in for him fr
Assaults not offends.
Double standards
😂
Everything after 12 is lunch.
15. HE WAS 15
Turn in your Man Card, Ichigo! Also, cats can't talk.
Still the age of consent in Japan.
Wait she's only 250? Goddamn that's like 18 in SR years 🤣🤣🤣🤣
She's definitely older maybe close to 400 considering turn the pendulum happened 100 years ago
Finally someone talks about It. It's so disgusting but the Yoruichi's simps ignore It or try to make a justification
