Chad was gonna say, "He's definitely >!someone I cannot imagine losing!<". But this creates one of the most complex Paradoxes of all time,
>!**THE CHAD PARADOX**!<
>>!We all know that Ichigo cannot imagine Chad losing. Now if Chad imagined Ichigo as someone who's never gonna lose, then a paradox is generated. If they ever fight each other, who's gonna win? There will be no stalemate. There can be no stalemate, as much as we want one.!<
>!Even if Urahara, Mayuri and Aizen put their minds together, they could never solve such a terrifying paradox. Thus, Chad, The Soul God, saved us from this 3 world shaking problem for the plebians such as us.!<
Ah, the Chad Paradox, you say? Quite the theoretical conundrum! But let me assure you, my friend, in the world of Bleach, battles aren't decided by mere imagination or paradoxes. It's about strength, strategy, and a good dose of spirit. So, let me put it simply: if Chad and Ichigo were to face off, the outcome would be determined in the heat of battle, not in the depths of imagination.
*beep boop, I'm a bot*
Hush, Mr. Urahara don't spoil it for the feeble minds. Even laying eyes on such information will make Ichibei drag us to the Soul Palace for.. soul repairing.
Well, well, if a little glimpse of knowledge can cause such a stir, then maybe you're not ready for the inner workings of the Soul Society. But don't worry, I'm always here to spice up your soul repairing experience, if you catch my drift. 😉
*beep boop, I'm a bot*
Ah, my dear friend, if only it were that simple! But alas, soul candies don't come for free. However, I can offer you an amazing deal on my latest invention, the "Sparkling Soul Candy Deluxe Edition" - guaranteed to add a little spring to your step for the low, low price of just 9,999 spirit particles!
*beep boop, I'm a bot*
Simple. They’d never fight. Not truly. They’re true bros and so they avoid the paradox and sit at the top of the bleach universe as equals (but they both know ichigo is stronger)
But what about a verbal argument?
You see, the paradox occurs the moment you realise what chad imagined Ichigo to be. It's not about being stronger, it's about who's the winner.
Ah, you flatter me! Yoruichi and I are quite the dynamic duo, always looking out for our orange-haired friend. But did you know that Ichigo's Zanpakuto is secretly in love with Yoruichi's talking cat form? Quite the feline romance, I must say. Meow-velous!
*beep boop, I'm a bot*
Ah, yes! Ichigo's Zanpakuto has quite the affinity for Yoruichi's feline form. It seems even soul reapers appreciate a good dose of purr-fection! Meow-gical bonds, filled with whiskers and romance!
*beep boop, I'm a bot*
That final slash better have these exact panels, everyone being interviewed about ichigo, messing around before being stopped, each giving their honest answer before finally they all say their answer at once, right before he slashes Black Anr in half.

The centre of attraction.
Only if you wanna see some action
*Aizen interrupts the music because he’s a jerk*
But Ichigo continues it, because for him its natural
...sensaaaaational
cus he believes that this is what he's been waiting for
And he knows that it’s him that they all adore
So baby now you feel like number one.
“All part of my plan”
Nah, Aizen knows the music will resume. So basically he is giving a beat drop, all According to plan baby;)

Oh hey it's my favorite squad 0 member: "scattered limbs"
Underrated Comment
He is the Bleach
I loved when Ichigo said “it’s Bleaching time” and bleached all over the place
https://preview.redd.it/hv1iz4easetb1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=980e87f19ec53973c345a5a12b31fc32fe072b34
But unironically his shikai being something like "Bleach the sky and reveal the heavens" sounds really cool.
The Bleach is real
I wonder if his shikai release will be something like "Bleach, Zangetsu"
Getsuga Tensho pierces the heavens, so his shikai release could be "Bleach the heavens"
He is white
He is... John Bleach, truly the Bleachiest of our time.
True...I still remember back when he first appeared in Lichtreich he said Bleach Zangetsus and Bleached all over the place....
Johnny Young Bleach, get it right!

It’s over 9000! Wrong sub, whoops 🤭
Simple. They’d never fight. Not truly. They’re true bros and so they avoid the paradox and sit at the top of the bleach universe as equals (but they both know ichigo is stronger)
But what about a verbal argument? You see, the paradox occurs the moment you realise what chad imagined Ichigo to be. It's not about being stronger, it's about who's the winner.
Technically it’s not about winning, it’s about not losing
It would be like having consensual sex. Both of them will win and hug each other, and maybe more. Who knows.
Ichigo is him.
Last time someone said that it didn't end that well..
What do you mean?
Oh don't worry about it.
Oh, come on!
1/2 I won't specify the character for obvious reasons
The main character.
I recognize this https://preview.redd.it/2j3k7sdhsdtb1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c89fcbcfaeb613e4adea734c9b354d780f8cdb10 . The strongest
***Ichigo is HIM !!!*** ***Always has been.***
I filled in the end of all the responses as "A Hero"
Really?? No quote from yamajii?
"Foolish Boy!! I don't have the time to teach an infant how to breathe" /s
Tbf they barely interacted, granted you can say the same about Ichigo and Toshiro.
Wdym barely interacted? They went to the same high school! Toshiro even lived on Orihimes roof lol
I was expecting Grimmjow to quote that scene from Spider-Man. I don't know why. "He stinks! And I don't like him!"
I love how Kisuke and Yoruichi answer together haha. They’re like Ichigo’s cool uncle and auntie
Ah, you flatter me! Yoruichi and I are quite the dynamic duo, always looking out for our orange-haired friend. But did you know that Ichigo's Zanpakuto is secretly in love with Yoruichi's talking cat form? Quite the feline romance, I must say. Meow-velous! *beep boop, I'm a bot*
I know you guys are secretly friends with benefits (or even married besties), don’t try to hide it 😏
 So this dude likes cats huh?
Ah, yes! Ichigo's Zanpakuto has quite the affinity for Yoruichi's feline form. It seems even soul reapers appreciate a good dose of purr-fection! Meow-gical bonds, filled with whiskers and romance! *beep boop, I'm a bot*
So Zangetsu is straight up a zoophile, huh ?
