Well, I'm surprised it didn't cut the dude yet. Wasn't its special ability to cut through everything?

I'm pretty sure that's something Zaraki just said off offhandedly and fans just ran with. It's like in One Piece when Zoro said the same thing during Dressrosa and people seriously thought he was telling the truth, until Birdcage came into play and he was unable to cut through it.
His Zanpakuto ability hasn't been revealed yet, if it even has one.

You know Hitsugaya well. There were liberties taken with the translation. He wasn't telling a joke originally.
I still hate Kubo for that

So Kempachi's Bankai? is coming?

That big dude's sword would be useful for testing all the "cut through anything" abilities. Kenpachi, Tsukishima, Yamamoto, whose ability cuts deepest?
Yachiru is his bankai

She's the Secret War Power, marked for her "main character's love interest" plot armor
I'm watching the episode where Ichigo fights his inner Hollow to take control of it and Kubo needs to stop taking shit out of his ass. We now know that the true Zangetsu was his Hollow all along and that the old man was just Yhawch's presence trying to influence Ichigo but he grew to care for him or whatever. If that's the case then why the fuck had his Hollow been trying to take complete control of Ichigo and even trying to kill him? The guy wanted Ichigo completely out of the picture.
"If you leave me even the slightest opening, I'll toss you out and stomp on your skull!"
He's his Zanpakuto and he says something like that? Cotdamn. Is he just a giant asshole? It's such a dumb reveal.

My best guess is that Hollowification can make zanpakuto go berserk until they reach some level of balance, and his actions there were of that berserk aspect while Quincy Zangetsu wouldn't really be affected due to being a conflicting source entirely.
Of course that's probably just how Kubo rationalized it after the fact when initially he really was just a crazy Hollow.

I don't see these things making much sense either. I believe the whole thing with Yhwach being tossed in this inner conflict as some sort of a retcon.
It wouldn't be the first retcon. I'm pretty sure it was implied that the reason Ichigo has an inner Hollow is because he almost became one when he was training with Urahara to get his Shinigami powers back. Now it's because his mom got infected by a Hollow and he inherited it which is hilariously bad.

When has it ever been stated that a Zanpakutou would always be looking out for the best interests of its master?
It was hinted at with the Fullbring origins, but it could have easily been rationalized as a trace of that Hollowification that was still lingering.
But nope, change shit more!

So, Unohana died so he could learn his shikai? Really?
Oh, and he explained his powers to the enemy again. And Kubo even tried to justify that again lol.

That's one of the few cool things. It was long foreshadowed and people came to the conclusion a while ago, without it being too obvious (until she vanished).
As it was said on the chapter, it's better not to apply logic into this. All things considered, I really liked the end of the chapter.
In Bleach things work better the less sense they make.
If she's any part of his sword I think this development is really stupid and I don't like it. Didn't he find her as an orphan?
Unless the explanation is that she was inadvertently storing his power and is now returning it.
Bleach 114:4 to 114:6
Little Yachiru is suddenly next to Kenpachi, touching his bloodstained sword. Dead bodies lie around him. Kenpachi himself wonders where she came from.
"Kid, what's your name?"
"..."
"You don't have one? Neither do I."
My guess is that similar to Starrk he was just kinda lonely and manifested the sword without realizing it.
Also this:
It gets more interested after knowing who she is and that she watched. Of course she would see it as unfair 2 on 1 fight, when she didn't actually fight with Kenpachi.
The idea of Yachiru being the sword is around longer than the war. Of course, it delivered a lot more hints.
Shitttt I say it is one of Bleach's oldest theories. People were saying that back when Dattebyo was still subbing.....
That makes me feel old

So during the Gremmy fight did Kenpachi release his shikai for the first time? I thought that happened during the Unohana fight after he heard the voice
Principate
Saint Titanfall
The best theory was still Yammy being the cero espada. Absolute god tier. Entertainment for days.
With her own Zan & Shikai too?
What? She doesn't have neither. Her enemy in the fight she was even remarked that was she did was unheard of.
Ah, I thought those two things were her shikai.

Not surprising.
has been called so many times. Not even amazing. It just goes to show that Kubo has truly ran out of creative steam. Time to let Bleach go. He should hurry it up.
Yachiru being his Zanpaktou
