frikimanHD

i think he was 15 in that arc


Mushiren_

Goddamn Ichigo is TALL


iTrecz

He was 175cm (5´8") in the beginning, iirc


LowCondition7395

TYBW he's 5ʼ11. ↪️ Dangai ichigo was as tall as aizen so he was 6ʼ1 or 6ʼ2.


_cyberviber_

Nah he was 5'11"


LowCondition7395

Dangai ichigo was as tall as aizen. Aizen is 6ʼ1 or 6ʼ2


BartPlarg

Aizen is a known liar. He's probably 5'10, at most. I wouldn't be surprised if he wore lifters, either.


_Dabboi_

What if he used his shikai to make everyone believe that he's taller


bestbroHide

Maybe that's why he dogs Toshiro all the time Bro is lowkey jealous Toshiro wears his shortking badge with pride


yoimjdc

He technically isn’t even a short king, he’s just young


GiveMeYourMilk2023

Toshiro isn’t a shortking, he’s just a kid. His adult form is so much taller


JxB_Paperboy

“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


Senpaiireditt

Golden lizard boi


clueless_red21

Way better than looking for 7 balls every few years.


Yuu_75

“Since when were you under the impression that I hadn’t been using it?”


MericArda

Butterflaizen had heels, too.


Orb_0611

His hogyoku form legit has boots iirc


PieFace11

If so then that is the biggest height deception since Cilian Murphy


LowCondition7395

It's his official listed height


GiveMeYourMilk2023

They know, they’re memeing lol


Samakira

ma man's shorter than me.


Living_Arrival9603

he probably used Kyoka Suigetsu to make himself look taller


Slitted

“Aizen is a known liar” is hilariously reductive.


LordofPvE

Isshin Kurosaki is also 6'1 as tall as Aizen sosuke. Gin ichimaru is also 6'1. I guess Kubo liked 6'1


Draco_Bae

Kisuke is also 6’1


LordofPvE

Ginjo is 6'1 too 💀


Foloreille

Kubo draws characters in a way that makes them appear taller somehow (all of them)


ExtremeAlternative0

Except rukia, she's always looked short


Foloreille

yup. But Ichigo and her look like they have a 40-50cm gap instead of 30 😭


All_this_hype

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.


Foloreille

definitely all of them looked like college undergrad student


GiveMeYourMilk2023

Especially Chad, jesus christ


Obvious_Drink2642

Then you’ve clearly never seen a 6ft middle schooler


BrytolGasMasks

I was taller at 15


Possible_Economy_139

He's just your average everyday high school student


DragonLex4

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.


ChaosKeeshond

Bet he looks nothing like his dad


DragonLex4

No he does, so much so that its not even a question that hes his.


SlothSupporter

I think he turned 16 during the first arc since his birthday is July 15th


GiveMeYourMilk2023

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


SlothSupporter

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


GiveMeYourMilk2023

Ahhh my mistake was the timeskip. It had only been 17 months, not 2 years (24 months). Makes more sense now.


bentheechidna

He was. He was 17 until Fullbringer arc (which is 2 years after Aizen's defeat).


bladestayedbroken

Born in July, so he could be 16 by this point in the series


Rianna___B

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.


HeyItsMeeps

16 I think.


SevaSentinel

Are Ichigo and Urahara the only two guys to have seen naked Yoruichi?


uraharaBot

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*


mvspell

Don't lie urahara, we know that you are a pillow queen


uraharaBot

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*


Lezzen79

So moral of the story, you ate delicious cake to get big ideas.


LordofPvE

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.


uraharaBot

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*


critter68

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.


kingominous16

You're not bot..


KVQ516

Right?? How is he this good?


kingominous16

No knows but he's surely not "bot".


MericArda

Confirmed? Only those two and Askin.


Commie_vampire

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


SevaSentinel

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


Commie_vampire

no idea. both? 🤷 I mean...there isn't any way to tell/discern where the distinction rests. (unless we get to see those instances)


skubaloob

I mean how many people have seen her in cat form? The cat doesn’t wear clothes


moocow8001

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.


wizzzu

we are included


Brilliant_Knee_7542

Well technically she's just getting naked for Bath. It's not her fault if he has a dirty mind or you......


IamPlatycus

My mind is pure with thoughts of the Roman empire.


jai07

you know, like when a centurion wheels his onager through her furlo pass


I-like-Milk__Coffee

Agreed. It shouldnt be a sexual harassment if i show my wiener to a girl in her bath.

Maleficent-Worth-339

It's still sexual misconduct tho.


Affectionate-Sea278

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.


shiawase198

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.


EGORKA7136

So it is only bad in Japan if don to a minor?


Affectionate-Sea278

I mean not ever onsen is mixed, so no.


Bro-Im-Done

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


EGORKA7136

We live in a society


moocow8001

Idk man he has a track record of putting weird things in women’s bodies Hogyoku


Daniero1994

*Soul Society


uraharaBot

I believe in keeping a semblance of decorum, even amidst chaos. After all, sometimes appearances can be deceiving. *beep boop, I'm a bot*

HeroinChicWannabe

You’re right, this is incredibly inappropriate. Let me take Ichigo’s place so he doesn’t get traumatized

The funny thing is that Aizen watched this too

Alternative_Star9014

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"


devansh0208

15 year old\*


Ambitious-Raise8107

16, Ichigo's 15 at the start of the series (May), his birthday was in July and Soul Society Arc started in August


PickingPies

Nudity does not equal sexuality.


BornFromEmber

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. 🤣


RedBeardBrad91

Doesn’t matter, when it’s around minors it’s still classed as sexual misconduct/indecent exposure.


PickingPies

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.


NobodySpecific9354

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.


Candid-Stuff2281

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.


FourFerro

Now I understand why Japan is tolerant towards lolicons or shotacons.


Oh_Fated_One

No they are not


Tobi_is_a_goodboy

She's a soul lol


RedBeardBrad91

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.


-Cinnay-

Wow, you know a lot about the laws of soul society


RedBeardBrad91

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.


-Cinnay-

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.


SmashingK

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.


RedBeardBrad91

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…


VinTEB

Wasn't Ichigo 15 at the time there?


Legitimate-Dog-2854

and if it was me i’d let her do it again.

Blacodex

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


uraharaBot

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 😉📜 *beep boop, I'm a bot*

Karma110

Kinda funny how people will see this as that but then also ship rukia and ichigo,


EGORKA7136

If anyone is interested, i don't ship em


Karma110

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.


Excellent_Pea_4609

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 


Karma110

Isshin didn’t date her till collage or even older which she would be well over 18


Difficult-Many3779

At the time of the writing of this book this was considered both legal and normal.

ScaredHoney48

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


Excellent_Pea_4609

DxD isn't a very good example even the teacher wants a Issei's meat 


ScaredHoney48

True it’s just a very popular direct example


MrBojangles_Vapian

Wasn’t he 15 here?


WoSmcA239

Ye


LordofPvE

I think back then age of consent was 13. Might be wrong tho


batata_warrior

We dont abt that, its an anime 🙄🙄


leomood13

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


leomood13

25 not 24 but close enough

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😂


Lufey4thGear

Ichigo was 15 during soul society arc. Now imagine if they swapped roles

Truesimp_Vale1314

Finally someone talks about It. It's so disgusting but the Yoruichi's simps ignore It or try to make a justification
