I was actually very disappointed by this twist, because it felt to me that Yhwach acted frivolous. You know - or at least you should assume -h that Kyouka Suigetsu's illusion is absolute, there's no way to not fall for it. The first thing you do after invading Soul Society is rush to Aizen and either get him on your side or seal his powers to the max. Kyouka Suigetsu is literally the only thing that can stop you, so you should minimize the risk of Aizen using it. This twist felt like a bad magic trick - if you can only find one way to do the trick, that's how it's done and whole mystery's gone. The only thing that could stop Yhwach was Kyouka Suigetsu, the thing that stopped him was Kyouka Suigetsu, the whole tension and anticipation is gone now. It was a great moment for Aizen, though.

He labeled him a 5 war power and so the moment he realized he couldn't recruit him he should of killed him on the spot.

I agree. I just wish there was a line somewhere about her early on that was an extremely subtle hint. Maybe if Kenpachi Zaraki scolded the squad members messing around in the squad 4 barracks by saying something like "We have a saying at squad 11. Never disrespect a captain. Especially THAT captain. Do I make myself clear?" Some sort of vague saying like this to further explain why people are afraid of making her angry would've done wonders in hindsight of the twist.

Gin largley took me by surprise. It wasn't because he betrayed Aizen, but his motives did surprise me. Kubo did a great job with making Gin seem like a very snakey character. Someone you could never trust, not for either side. Sort of like Orochimaru from Naruto. So his true motives did surprise me. I also saw a lot of paralels to Snape from Harry Potter.

I just thought I didn't remember his name right so when I finally got to the reveal, I was surprised.

Something similar happened to me; a friend of mine was into Bleach before I was, and mentioned in passing one time that Aizen was a jerk. After I started watching Bleach and meeting Aizen, I was suspicious of him, but it was hard when he seemed so nice; I started thinking that maybe he just had a rougher side to him. Then came his brutal "murder," and I thought to myself, "...Okay, maybe he'll be revealed to be a jerk in a flashback or something." Then came the plot twist... I later told my friend that her calling Aizen a "jerk" was the understatement of the century.

I knew about Sosuke Aizen being the main villain but knowing nothing of his powers, how he became a villain, and I've only seen him with his swooped hair. That reveal of him being a villain still hit me, especially when I knew nothing about Gin and I thought he was kind of the big mastermind guy. I was still so blown away by this reveal.

Regarding Ichigo's parentage: when reading the manga, I remember figuring that something was up in the chapters where Ichigo found out his dad was a Shinigami. At the end of one chapter, Aizen was telling Ichigo that "you've always been part shinigami and part..." when Isshin appeared, interrupting the explanation. The beginning of the next chapter had Ichigo thinking about Aizen's words, but he remembered/heard them as "you've always been part human and part..." It may have been a translation error, but the way it seemed to me at the time was that it was a deliberate hint that there was even more at play regarding Ichigo. Also, am I the only one who took the inner hollow's repeated "I am Zangetsu" literally? The old man being Yhwach was a huge twist, definitely shocked me, but the second the inner hollow started being an expert with the Zanpakuto and screaming "I'm you, I'm Zangetsu, I'm your power" I went "yep, makes sense." I just always figured that, as Ichigo eventually decided, ultimately both were Zangetsu

Personally, I do like the whole Espada going from 0-9 cuz it just makes more sense. Doesn't mean I like that Yammy was supposed to be Espada nr. 0 when it's clear that Ulquiorra, Starkk and Barragan is way stronger then him. It also creates a bit of an inconsistency when it comes to how the Arrancar with two digit numbers are ranked after their order of birth/creation. We are led to believe that Showlong, who is Arrancar nr. 11, is the first one created by Aizen, but if Yammy is nr. 10, doesn't that mean he is actually the first? This is really confusing. I personally think Kudo should have waited with revealing some of the Espada numbers until later and not made Yammy nr. 10, but maybe 8 or 5, and maybe had someone who makes more sense be Espada nr. 0.

While the Aizen twist is so iconic and the time I experienced it I had no idea of it, I'd still put it in second place. Old man Zangetsu not actually being Ichigo's zanpakuto spirit had way more emotional impact for me. It was all there but you only get all the piece until the final arc, I felt shocked and betrayed. But then you see the old man never lied about caring and wanting to protect Ichigo so I get sad when I see him step down so Ichigp can become more powerful. I even love the resolution of Ichigo accepting him as a second Zangetsu, it's very in character for him to let this be water under the bridge want him to still be accompanying him in his battles. I just love Ichigo's bond with both of his swords in different ways.

With Ichigos zanpakto situation, when think about it there were some hints during the soul society arc when Hollow Ichigo said train him well and I also have an theory about Aizen which essentially goes that he might’ve foresaw that the Quincey’s will invade Soul Society but no one listened to him so he done what he did in order to try and be the necessary evil to try and prevent it from happening

With your third honourable mention, it did give a good expectation of the Espada's strength especially when you remember Toshiro's explanations of the Meno Grande. He states how powerful Vasto Lorde levels are and how dangerous it could be if Aizen had ten of them as his Espadas. I think only Ulquiorra really lived up to that expectation. Barragan felt weak as he relied almost exclusively on his Respira move, Stark held his own for a good while but his defeat felt a little Deus ex machine. Only Halibel held her own until she got Aizen'd.

We have to remember Barragan didn't care for Aizen or his motives & he was basically trying to pull a "Gin move" but he failed since he was defeated be his own powers. Starrk seemed loyal to Aizen but he wasn't really a serious fighter which was his downfall but at least he held his own against 4 Captains. Halibel seemed like she was also holding back but at the same time she was facing someone who can basically negate her attacks so she pretty much had to "stall" Toshiro out so she can win against him, Hiyori & Lisa. That being said I think the fights were fair. Yeah maybe Segunda Etapa Ulquiorra was stronger than everyone else but at the same time Ulquiorra was only fighting (destroying) Ichigo while the Espada were going against the rest of the Gotei 13.

#1 is the reason why I enjoyed him losing his cool at the end of series (anime). Throughout all the arcs starting from the Soul Society arc, Aizen was alway portrayed as calm, collected, and cold with, course, some form of god complex. It was so satisfying to final see him lose it and lose at very end.

I think the main reason people thought the Unohana thing came out of nowhere is purely because of the anime fillers. The fillers didn't get the hint that Unohana was supposed to be scary until he 2nd filler arc and even then they only played on it as a gag, and other scenes of her portray her as the typical overly compassionate medic. But if you cut the filler out then the series is consistent about her being an intimidating person so the twist shouldn't feel so out of place for her.

What made Gin's betrayal so shocking to me was that Kubo had completely succeeded at convincing me that Gin was evil. Of course you know that he cares about Rangiku and he didn't really kill her but Kubo had done such a good job at making me believe that Gin was following Aizen's plan, and he just wanted Rangiku to stop interfering. So when he stabbed Aizen and then explained his plan and his bankai and everything... I felt like my mind had just exploded. And I suddenly remembered so many moments where Gin did things that hinted to this and felt simultaneously dumb and in awe of what had been done

I'd put Starrk being the #1 Espada up there.

Then Shunsui assumes he is #1 until Starrk reveals it is actually he who is #1.

I think the reason why Ichigo is the main character is because he technically the soul king. We learn that the soul king is a combination of every power or race that is in bleach, human, arrancar, shinigami, fullbringer, and Quincy. So Ichigo being a natural version of that makes him so much more powerful

Very nice list, Aizen as the villain was absolutely insane compared to who he was built up as. Although Isshins reveal as a captain was the most insane thing to me ever. What an absolute bombshell, and for him to be strong enough still after all that time to compare to Aizen for he was upgraded. Plus I'm not sure if it was in the manga but the anime has a line when Isshin is talking to Kon and he tells him I've always known when it was you and not ichigo because he sensed his pressure, such a nice little piece showing this guy we thought was a idiot was one of the biggest badasses of the series.

The Quincy are still alive. 4. Aizen planned all of Ichigo's battles. 3. Zangetsu is Yuha Bach. 2. Unohana is the first Kenpachi. 1. Gin betrayed Aizen. To me, Gin betraying Aizen was extremely unexpected because of all the torment and abuse and death he'd already allowed for Aizen. His redemption is very satisfying.

It was foreshadowed quite a bit, but I didn’t realize how much it had been foreshadowed until it was revealed.
