Why was he so STRONG?! #yamamoto #bleach #anime #aizen #ichigo #tybw #tybwanime #bankai #shikai

[renmanjares]

With his battle intelligence and probably experience he figured out fhe weakness of Aizen's shikai. He knew Aizen has the superiority complex and use his cunning words so that Aizen will stab him, catching Aizen's zanpaktou removing the illusion in that moment.

[salmannazeer]

He had thousands of years to grow. He reached the ceiling of power a pure shinigami could theoretically reach through growth alone. Mastered all aspects of his shikai and bankai. Mastered all kido available. Outlived majority of his peers. Fought and lived through multiple eras of conflict in soul society.

Everyone knows you don't mess with the old man in any anime. They're always the pinnacle of OP you just don't mess with.

[kevincalgta]

The head captain of the 13 court guard squad was so powerful that even upon his death, his spirit was sent to hell, and this was done to keep the balance between social society and the world of the living

[XCarrion]

He maxed out his stats, he is the guy who played since launch

[thealmightypuht.a.p.]

The fact both Shunui and Ukirake, his personal prodigy level students were shitting bricks at just the sight of his Shikai was hilarious. Also Shunsui has one of the most broken Bankai in the series and he flat out admits on numerous occasions Yamaji is just on another level.

Dude was so strong he couldn’t even be out haxed. 😂

[jesseb]

He was the strongest back when the Shinigami were a bunch of war criminals. Makes sense that he's still the strongest now since the standards are lower

[javierstrive]

He Was An Insane Hand To Hand Combatant & Swordsmanship

[MagicianSama]

Aizen did NOT one that smoke with Grandpa Yama before he fused with the Hogyoku

[BongaRadebe-ph]

1000 undeafed until he lost his😊 left arm and didn't want it to be healed by a human definition of Pride😢

[razenhell]

He’s pretty dang strong I can only imagine if someone like him had got hollowfication what in the world would happen to his power

[mattieonutube]

Easily one the strongest characters in the series, yet we dont really get to see him shine. Obviously Tite Kubo felt he couldnt let him go all out or it would be over in an instant, but it sucks we never really got to see him actually fight anybody.

[BladeZlayer]

He's really strong.
But i wish we saw more of
Jūshirō Ukitake.
We are told about his unbelievable spiritual pressure in TYBW, I can't imagine what Ukitake's Ban-Kai would be if he released all of his spiritual pressure at once.
Then again, i guess he can't relies all that power for the very reason of Mimihagi being the power of "Stillness" and so it would make sense for it to be just that.

But yeah, i think we should have seen more of him, hopefully in the Hell arc👀

[Polar]

Sad he got killed cause of plot armor since kubo didn't know how to balance him out in the equation in tybw cause with him soul reapers would have a too big of an advantage

[himekomurata]

He most likely could've ended the first invasion alone. He incinerated three sternritters with just flaring up his fire. He was too op to the story that's why he was always tricked by the main villains

[Atticus-Catnipp]

Yamamoto was the strongest recorded soul reaper in serive of Seireitei. But to be fair, nobody else was allowed to be just as or more powerful than he was. Central 46 introduced many laws that forbid people to go above and beyond their most powerful enforcer.

[nero_Demnc]

What's even more surprising is Yamamoto is basically serves as power level limit he's basically the peak of what normal power could possibly reach (which is extremely rare)
And surpassing his level basically gets you to absurd levels of power only demonstrated by squad zero Aizen Ichigo and Ywach

But surprisingly Zaraki possibly got to Yamamoto level if not slightly stronger

[tynzHappening]

If you live to be an Old warrior in an anime, we all know you're the Pinnacle of power

[Opbrgamer]

Bro killed more than 10 trillion people 3rd most kill count in all anime, 🙂

[henrypeterkin]

Lol, u sneaked in byakuya but left out kenpachi in the spiritual pressure talk 😂😂😂
