Bleach: Most Powerful Zanpakuto Spirits’ Shikai and Bankai

The Spirit of a Zanpakuto links directly to their respective Shinigami’s soul, subsequently sharing similar goals, personality traits, and physical characteristics with the Soul Reaper. These Spirits can unleash otherworldly powers at their wielder’s request with a first form known as Shikai. When things get too intense, most Zanpakuto can kick things up a notch with an overpowered Bankai; however, not every Shinigami has access to this ultimate release form in Bleach.
