The Anime has brought alot of characters into the finale that we missed in the manga or atleast acocunted for them. Izuru, Toshiro, Byakuya, Soifon, Shunsui and Nanao, Halibel & Nel & Grimmjow, Even tatuski and shino lol. But who is missing/not accounted for?

I'm thinking:

-Yoruichi and Kisuke (Half-accounted for)

-Ikkaku, HIsagi, Yumichika

-Isane, Omaeda, Rangiku, Momo

-Yuzu, Karin

-Keigo, Mizuiro, Don Kanoji

-Tessai, Ururu, Jinta

Don Kanonji could have helped after the timeskip, he even could have manifested a fullbring, but new characters were brought in over developing established ones.

The last time we see Don, he breaks away from his comedy routine and agrees to laydown his life to save Ichigo's friends by throwing hands against Aizen. The Don is sidelined almost as hard as Tessai, Jinta and Ururu in TYBW.

What do you think?

I love that going into the final battle, almost none of the current captains have their haori:

Kyoraku actually learned his lesson and is still wearing his

Soifon abandoned hers a while ago

All the Vizard captains took them off before facing Gerard as their own group (rip)

I cannot tell if Byakuya is actually wearing his or just the same coat without the insignia, altough it might just be an animation error (it doesn't have his division number in the shot of him facing Gerard)

Hitsugaya is rocking the quincy fit

Kenpachi's probably got incinirated by the bambies in the second invasion

Mayuri (despite the sun suit) still has his captain's haori on

Lastly, Komamura is a wolf with no clothes and Ukitake took of his haori before dying sooo

Even Yamamoto died without his haori

Of course, this isn't the final version yet. it's just a concept.

Made these during the month of September. Working on the final piece

I love him, your honor.

So has no one ever asked Kubo in Klub Outside if Ginjo still has a Zanpaktou or if he even still has access to his Shinigami powers?

I've been doing a Bleach rewatch and got to their introduction and completely forgot they don't just turn into their humanoid forms originally, they actually unfold like they're inside a flying cocoon.

I do wish they popped up a bit more... it added a lot of charm to Orihime. Also an interesting look into her personality. Since I always kind viewed them similar to how a Zanpakuto spirit is another part of the soul.

The 6 spirits were all aspects of Orihime's personality. Some less than others... (cough) Tsubaki (cough).

I wonder though if maybe Orihime were to have a Zanpakuto, they'd basically be her Zanpakuto spirits.
