As the rivalry between Captain Genryusai Shigekuni continues with Yhwach (King of Quincies) for ages, our main protagonist, Ichigo Kurosaki, contributes to the battle to stop Yhwach from achieving his dream!

While the first episode, the focus shifts to a bloodthirsty battle between Royal Elite Guards and Squad Zero. Let’s glance at five bleach characters listed as war potential by Yhwach before the Soul Society invasion!

Bleach Characters: Five War Threats Who Can Turn the Tides!
Aizen Sosuke
The great manipulator, Aizen Sosuke, has been a threat to both Shinigami and Quincies. Before merging with the Hogyoku, Aizen got an appreciation for his tremendous spiritual power.
However, after his imprisonment, Aizen still holds an extent of spiritual power (with a limiter). Yhwach counted him amongst the five war threats due to his unpredictable moves and battle intelligence!
Shikai: Kyoka Suigetsu
Bankai: Unknown
Voice Actor: Sho Hayami
Ichigo Kurosaki
As the main character in the series, Ichigo has excelled among other bleach characters. Whether it’s power or spiritual pressure, you can always count on Ichigo to turn the tides in the battle!
Due to his growth rate in the series (All thanks to Aizen Sama), Yhwach mentioned him in the list of five war powers of Soul Society! In addition, Ichigo has a massive advantage in the battle due to several powers residing in his body and latent ability!
Shikai: Zangetsu
Bankai: Tensa Zangetsu
Voice Actor: Masakazu Morita
Ichibe Hyosube
Also known as Manoko Osho, Ichibe Hyosube is the captain of Squad Zero, who serves under Soul King. Being an exception amongst other squad zero captains, Ichibe has proved his worth in the fight against Yhwach in Bleach TYBW Cour 2.
Eventually, Ichibe Hyosube got selected for the five war potentials because of his immense wisdom and deep connections with the Soul King. Living an eternal life and witnessing war with the quincies two times let Ichibe evolve with other bleach characters!
Shikai: Ichimonji
Bankai: Shirafude Ichimonji
Voice Actor: Naomi Kusumi
Kisuke Urahara
One of the fan favorites among bleach characters, Kisuke has displayed his excellence as both a swordsman and a Kido user. As an ex-captain of Squad 12, Kisuke’s intentions and personality have always stayed hidden from other captains!
Even after his exile from Soul Society, his inventions and intelligence awe everyone. Yhwach listed Kisuke Urahara amongst the five war powers due to his unknown means and battle IQ and because he created Hogyoku and Hollowfication pills!
Shikai: Benihime
Bankai: Kannonbiraki Benihime Aratame
Voice Actor: Shinichiro Miki
Kenpachi Zaraki
I don’t know your opinion about Kenpachi, but he’s one of my favorites among Bleach characters. From the start, Zaraki has always gone plus ultra, making him the menace of Soul Society.
Additionally, his willpower to surpass the limits encourages every fan to their core! Like Bleach, TYBW Cour 2 unveiled Kenpachi’s true potential against Gremmy Thoumeaux.
Yhwach added him to the five war powers of Soul Society due to his brute strength and fighting spirit! Also, gear up to witness Kenpachi Zaraki’s Bankai against Gerald Valkyrie in Bleach TYBW Cour 3!
Shikai: Nozarashi
Bankai: Unknown
Voice Actor: Fumihiko Tachiki
