[edit] Flying vs. Airwalking
hitsugaya's bankai doesn't allow him to fly. you might notice when hirako first made himself known to ichigo he was walking on air. ikkaku and eduardo were "flying" in their fight as well. there is no real flying per se in bleach. they are souls remember so just like a ghost they can natrually levitate like that. hitsu's bankai has nothing to do with it, its part of being a soul. if it was his bankai how was shawlong, renji, ikkaku, eduardo, il forte etc all flying in their fights? --Grimjaw 01:47, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
- Depends on how you want to look at it. The phenomenon that allows them to "fly" is by concentrating the spirit particles at their feet; Zangetsu explained that to Ichigo. Technically, they're "standing" and "running" in mid-air thanks to the spirit particles around them. Getting back with Hitsugaya, let's use episode 60(or 61) of the anime for reference. When Hitsugaya moves in to attack Aizen before Aizen owns him, it's given the impression that he rose, and flew(then crashed and burned) towards Aizen. And you don't think those huge wings are just for decoration, do you? --Chemicalist 16:12, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
Chemicalist is right. The standard airwalking technique is just the expulsion of reiatsu/spiritrons from the feet, similar to the Quincy speed boost technique where they collect spiritrons under them and essentially jet around on them. Hitsugaya is flying, because he is using wings to travel, whereas the others are merely running through the sky.--tjstrf 21:16, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
ikkaku used his hand to stop himself when knocked back by edorad...in the air. hirako was literally upside down if he was using his spirit particles at his feet he'd of fallen. the wings are not for decoration they are for blocking look at luppi's first attack, more so wings have to flap to make u fly, and u can't glide well while stationary like he would have had to do in ur anime example. --147.26.232.133 07:19, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
I agree with Chemicalist. However, the wing could be there to help him get off the ground, since he is young and might not have developed all of the necesary things needed for air-walking. Still not flying, though--Count Mall 22:06, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Luppi battle
Did he really kill Luppa? From all we know that Luppa could have survived the attack, since there was no direct indication of her complete defeat. (She could be injured, but survives)
- Hey, edits are cheap, and Luppi seemed pretty well finished. If it turns out we are wrong, we can always fix it. Also, Luppi seems to be a guy. --tjstrf 07:40, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Theme song
This article currently states that Hitsugaya's theme song is "This light I see" this is not true, it was only on a CD with songs done by Hitsugaya, Rangiku and Hinamori. hopefully this will be corrected with a bio of hitsugaya in the new volume 23--Lord Kefka 23:53, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Height
The article currently states Hitsugaya's height as 133CM. Is there a citation for this?
[edit] No-Daichi
Hitsugaya's zanpakutou is worn on his back, because, like Ichigo's, it is not of standard size. Hitsugaya's zanpakutou is somewhat larger than a standard zanpakutou, and could be a No-Daichi. -Emhilradim 23:09, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
- During the fight between Hitsugaya and Ichimaru both swords look about the same size. I think it just looks big because Hitsugaya is only 4 feet 4 inches tall while everyone else is 5'6" to 6 feet tall. Just imagine a 10 year old wielding a 3.5 foot katana and you can probably see why Hitsugaya has to wear it on his back. Gdo01 23:18, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
Yeah, it would probably drag on the floor if he wore it normally.--Count Mall 22:08, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Age?
The artical states that Hitsugaya is the youngest, but it never shows how old he is. Being a serious Whitey-Chan fan, this is probably the only thing I don't know. Help? 24.29.42.15 22:51, 29 November 2006 (UTC)Starletly
I don't think Kubo-sensei is going to get into how age/time works in Soul Society; thus, he's probably just going to stick to telling the ages of the human characters and calling the shinigami characters really young (like Shiro-chan) or really old (like Yama-jii).
[edit] Bankai
I've noticed that his sword in bankai is different than in sealed form or in shikai. His sealed sword's guard is shape of a four-pointed star, but in bankai his sword's guard that star is at least eight-pointed.
- That's pretty normal, since the entire point is that the bankai changes the form of the sword. I hadn't noticed though. You may add it if you wish, but it would be nice if you could point out a page where it's clearly shown. --tjstrf talk 22:56, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
it can be seen in manga chapter 170 page 19. I let someone else to add this in order to be in nice english (not just like mine)
[edit] voice actor.
So... where do people find the VA's for the characters, and if they got it from A.N.N., how did the person who put it there find out?
Just a thought, concerning Hitsu's VA.
- Some people look at all the VA's resumes, until they see the character's name imprinted in there? That's my guess. But it takes a lot of time. They also just guess, usually. Weird0 06:42, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- I know some VAs blog about the roles they've picked up, so a lot of it probably comes from that. In general though, the information just leaks out through the internet until someone adds it, and we usually turn a blind eye and hope it's correct until we get the official credits. --tjstrf talk 08:20, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Shawlong battle
I find it weird that everything about Hitsugaya is elaborated except for Shawlong's battle with him. Every other character has their fight during this time mentioned but Hitsugaya's battle with Shawlong has never been added except for the part in powers talking about the incomplete bankai. I'll write it myself once I have the time but I just find it odd; a small sentence would have been enough. Gdo01 06:42, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Trivia
Since the trivia section disappeared, I'm posting here to see if someone wants to attempt to merge it. 71.226.56.79 09:38, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
- The first character in Hitsugaya's given name, Tōshirō, means "winter," which is appropriate given his white hair and zanpakutō.
- His given name is also a homonym for a casual Japanese term meaning "amateur" (藤四郎), possibly referring to Hitsugaya's young age and inexperience relative to the other captains of the Gotei 13.
- Hitsugaya dislikes warm weather and summer in general, fitting when compared with his zanpakutō's ability to control ice.
- While brought forward as calm and mature, some childish parts of him still seem to be present. For example, during the ending credits of Sealed Sword Frenzy, he was in the human world and dressed in a young boy's school uniform, and Hinamori had to practically drag him out of hiding.
- The "flowers" that appear behind Hitsugaya during his Bankai are shaped exactly like the tsuba of his Zanpakuto.
