10 Strongest Bleach Characters

We are bringing you the 10 strongest characters from one of the most popular anime of all time, Bleach.

Bleach was broadcast worldwide and gathered hundreds of thousands of fanatical fans of both sexes, from their teenage years to their advanced thirties.

As for those unfamiliar with the anime phenomenon, Bleach is a great title to introduce them to this medium - it's intriguing, colorful, and fun to draw attention to, and yet different enough from anything we're used to, especially in animated form, that you can really get the impression that new worlds are opening up for you.

At the center of Bleach's plot is high school student Ichigo Kurosaki, who has had an unusual ability to see ghosts around him since he was a child.

As if this doesn't make his life complicated enough, one day he meets Rukia, a girl who does the ungrateful job of the Angel of Death (i.e., shinigami, beings from Japanese mythology), which means following souls from this world to the next, as well as dealing with renegade spirits that turned into monsters.

Acquiring enlightenment, an accident occurs in which Rukia transfers all his abilities and powers to Ichigo. He is forced to take on her tasks and reconcile the Angel of Death with high school life obligations.

This amazing show has offered us some great characters during its 366 episodes (of which 163 are fillers, and you can check out Bleach list fillers to skip those if you want), and below, you can find our list of ten strongest.

10. TOSHIRO HITSUGAYA

Captain of the 10th Division. The youngest captain in the formation (he is still a child, which is why he becomes a joke on certain occasions).

Very connected with his friend, the lieutenant of the 5th Division, Hinamori, from whom he is nicknamed Shiro (white or snow in literal translation). He possesses the strongest ice sword in history, Hyorinmar.

9. KENPACHI ZARAKI

Captain of the 11th Division. Probably the strongest shinigami in the formation after Yamamoto. He loves fighting, which he accepts as fun. He wants to fight Ichigo as a rematch for their previous fight.

He likes powerful opponents, has extraordinary endurance and very deadly attacks, and is also known as immortal. He originally did not have a name, but the surname Zaraki was given after the Rukongai district (the civil part of the society of souls where it comes from), and the name Kenpachi means "one who does not die, no matter how much they cut him."

8. BARRAGAN LUISENBARN

The second Espada and the oldest of the Espada. The former king of Hueco Mundo swore to take revenge on Aizen. He can control the weather. The aspect of death is his aging.

7. COYOTE STARK

The first Espada. Very lazy, unlike other Espadas, he is not arrogant and respects his opponents. The only Espada who can do a Resurrection (release his Hollow powers) only when he reunites with his other half, a girl named Lilinet Gingerbak. The aspect of death is his loneliness.

6. ICHIGO KUROSAKI

Ichigo Kurosaki is the protagonist of this story. The series begins when Ichigo, who can see supernatural beings, meets Rukiya Kuchiki, who was forced to give Ichigo her powers to fulfill the duty of shinigami.

Ichigo accepts her powers, not knowing what jobs await him as a shinigami duty. Ichigo will have to protect people from evil spirits (hollows) and send good souls (spirits) to the Soul Society's afterlife.

5. SOSUKE AIZEN

The main antagonist in the series. Using a crystal known as Hogyoku, he creates a powerful army of Arrancar. His goal was to become a supremacist, create a copy of the king's key, and become the new Spirit king. Controlled Ichig's entire life.

He was captured by Urahara, after which he was sentenced to 20,000 dungeons. With his sword (Kyoka Suigetsu), he hypnotized people and manipulated them, presenting himself as good and honest, thus deceiving many.

4. ICHIBE HYOSUBE

Ichibe Hyosube is known as "High Priest," and he is currently the Royal Guard commander.

He has a lot of potent abilities and thousands of years of fighting experience. His Zanpakuto can release the ink. Whatever ink covers lose its name and whatever is without a name loses its power.

Ichibe's abilities get even stronger when he is in his Bankai. He can assign names to whatever he thinks of by writing Kanji on.

3. GERARD VALKYRIE

He is a part of elite guards and has faced some of the strongest characters, like Kenpachi, Toshiro's Bankai, and Kenpachi.

Gerard was killed when Yhwach took back the powers he has given him. He had an ability called 'Miracle', which made him almost unkillable. Every time someone would hurt him, he would become even stronger.

2. GENRYUSAI YAMAMUTO

He ruled over Soul Society for more than a thousand years, and no one could touch him.

His strong spirit and dedication to training made him a weapon of destruction. He has beaten some of the strongest opponents and even managed to beat Yhwach.

1. YHWACH

YHWACH is the son of Soul King and was imprisoned for 999 years. After his return, he again started a war with Soul Society.

He has a huge range of abilities, such as enhanced durability, amazing healing factor, manipulation of the future, and many more. But, not only is he so strong, but his mind is his biggest advantage.
