Bleach: Derailed

It will also paint a BIG fucking NEON SIGN above our head for Aizen: "Here I am recruit or let me have a mysterious ACCIDENT" (really only reason that is not the case is because TPK said he said some things and dying would have disturbed Aizens plans) while simultaneously branding us as a Rule breaker which will outright BAN us from being recruited into the first, second, sixth and eight Divisions out of pure principle. so learning shikai is yes very good but not while skipping academy and missing lessons and other training because of it.
Except we won't be breaking any rules.

We were told right to our face that we can skip as many classes as we want, and only the exams matter. That means we could have happily never went to a single class, and as long as we turned up at the exams, they wouldn't be able to punish us.

Granted, some sticklers might not like it, but no rules would be broken.

Lol, because Hitsuguya had a unhappy accident?

Toshiro being short, was all according to Aizen's plan
I mean he already had gin he didn't need a second prodigy.
I do recall Aizen goes out of his way to be cruel to Toshiro, like framing the guy for his supposed death and don't get me started on how he tricked Hitsuguya into stabbing Momo when they are battling in near the end of bleach end of Aizen's arc, I think Toshiro reminded him of himself and he was annoyed that unlike him Toshiro was able to find friends and went out of his way to attack Toshiro,

I kinda assumed the opposite that he Hated Toshiro because of Momo to Aizen she was the embodiment of how nice and obedient he had to be, how people were impressed by a fake persona he had been keeping up for years. So all her pain was a payoff for how long he couldn't be a smug asshole. So having her be attacked by friends gave him pure happiness, it was his release.
 
Assuming I haven't miscounted, we have 100 votes.

 
That was quite a large jump in page count while I was asleep. If there are any unanswered questions for me, can you post them again, for my convenience?

Next time, on Yu Yu Hakasho! Now with extra information for having 100 votes.

-"Heh." Kukaku chuckles darkly. " 'Too much trouble' my ass. You... even sound like him. Get on out of here, but -stop by for a meal

-[] Ask Takako if she knows anything.
-"It's impossible." You stare her down, despite the difference in height, and snort. "Don't tell me about what's impossible. I don't care if it's possible or not. I'm doing

-[] Try the meditation thing.
-"the matter, Ichigo? Were you expecting to talk this out? Did you think you could ask politely for my power? Fine! If you live through this, we can talk, king

[] Accept Kukaku's offer of help.
-"did it go again? Did Kaien say it was meditation, or fighting? It was something about one of those, or both." She mutters to herself, and then shrugs. "Both sounds

-[] Train with her once a week.
-Takako eyes you up and down. "...Were you mugged, or attacked by a hollow?" "Shiba." You groan from your spot on the nice, cool floor.

-[] Stay with her until it works.
-"don't have to do anything but take it easy for a few days. You said you had kido tomorrow? Take it easy. Give your body time to recover, kid, and come

Well regardless of what subvote wins it sounds like we made the right choice.

...

I am tempted to pick this one, but Zangetsu seems quite confrontational here. Then again, he's always being antagonistic to Ichigo. But, since Ichigo can actually see and talk to him, means that Zangetsu is also quite eager to proceed to Shikai.

Ugh, all of them are good choices!

Hella fine. Takako does not disappoint.

Tempting, tempting.

Oh god, she has no idea what she's doing, does she?
 
No. That took Grand Fisher showing up to jog his memory.

Okay.
Asking cause here is another potential reason for Ichigo to get stronger faster.
Once he remembers that is was Grand Fisher that killed his mother and that he is a hollow, thus it will occur to Ichigo that his mother soul is currently inside Fisher's stomach, so that will motivate him to find him to free his mother; thus the need to get stronger will be even greater.
 
The meditation thing has gained a lot of traction there, yeah. Getting into a good, solid fight with Ichigo's zanpakuto seems likely to prove effective.

It makes a lot of sense that Kukaku has no idea how Shikai actually works. We never see her or Ganju use it, that I recall.
