Ichigo's training

[Casey6]

Was Ichigo training with his Inner Hollow at the beginning and didn't even know it?

I think sort of the power was always there wether he relised he was using it or not so as soon as he started training he was working towards it

[The Very End]

I think all that leads back to the horse and king conversation. At that point the hollow had accepted that Zan and Ichigo was stronger than him, therfor he helped him training. As he also stated, "that power will be mine" indicates that it's a growing power. In the end he became ichigo's power.

So who is ichigo's power scource now then?

[Casey6]

I think his own.

But I guess what I was noticed or remembering was when his hollow kept coming out, it was always saying he was going to take over, and Ichigo would be lost. It kinda sounded like he was saying that back in the beginning too.

Yeah, I noticed that aswell, and I think it's true aswell. But at that point he was not strong enough to take controll over Ichigo completely. That happend first in byo..(damn spelling) fight, then in the bounto fight and then at random times later but with shorter intervals.

Now what I REALLY wondering about is this "if you want to controll my powers completely, don't die before I show up again" o_O I think it was that the hollow said, so, does this means he is coming back, even after Ichigo beat him and became a Vizard?

[Crash8]

Oh i still think hes come back just liek Zag(his sowrds name cant spell lol)

[Casey6]

Well I sure hope he does come back, and maybe during the fight with Aizen. He was more exciting and not only that, quick, daring, and most of all stronger.

i allready writte about this some time ago in one of treaths.

my main point was that more power ichigo get more he open path to his hollow.
-right after training with urahara he have sealed hollow, but is still there.

-he learn shi-kai hollow made mask in fight against renji in order to protect him (so seal was littre broken, by using skill of his shi-kai)
Bleach 100 page 04 | One Manga
-metaralizacion (when he was on edge of death in fight against zaraki zangensu transported him in inner world, where he fight against his hollow without knowing it.
and what they wanted to taught him was that he should learn more about zangensu in order to breake seal, in other worlds they wanted him to learn ban-kai)

-and finaly ban-kai (zangensu can finaly show his true form and 100% of his power.
but at the same time seal is broken and hollow have free path to ichigo's soul.
in fight against byakuya hollow first time took controle over ichigos body)
Bleach 165 page 19 | One Manga

and we know that than he was comming closer and closer to ichigo and forced him to go trought vizard training.

i think his inner hollow was there from the beginning but he was mending his time and gaining power so that he could take over ichigo's body,also i believe he is doing the same now,trying to take it over but since ichigo still in control and knows how to control it there is no problem

[Casey6]

Shinji told Ichigo - the only way to push down a hollow is by crushing it down into the very core of your soul.

So I guess it could gain enough power to slip out again. And if he does, I want it to slip out while fighting Aizen.

Also, did Rukia REALLY know that he had a hollow inside, or was she just stating that Ichigo had given up on being a shinigami and would become a hollow?
