I think we're agreeing it could take that shape but unless you have a lot of power it'd be inefficient lol. The only way I could see a firearm Zanpakuto useful were it more of Kido type but even then it would be super complicated. lol

Exactly + if some ordinary shinigami, arrancar will somehow had a gun it wouldn't be any game changer at this point, especially in anime where they can literally teleport around, weapon itself doesn't matter tldr but the wielder.

I think what Vasto was trying to get across was not that a zanpakuto can’t manifest as a gun, but if it did it wouldn’t manifest in a way that would create a paradigm shift in power. When it comes down to it, the power of a zanpakuto is based on the user's spiritual pressure, and after that it is how they wield it. So a low level soul reaper could have zanpakuto that manifest as a gun, but it doesn’t mean it’s more deadly that Ikkakku’s “spear”.

I am not saying fire arms need to use gunpowder or bullets that's just being nit picky. I mean that would be like saying swords in the spiritual world need steel when but steel is a physical object so it can't actually exist in a purely spiritual world because soul reapers can't interact physical objects, except for when they can. I mean Bleach has a ton of plot holes if you're going to start pulling at threads. I don't wanna give any spoilers but the leader of the stealth groups basically uses the maximum equivalent on a fire arm. I mean breaking it down missiles are just bullets fired from a much larger gun, they still use the same basic physics.

Yea i would say that's ordinary shounen recap style, extra 1-2min, but One Piece is something else.. people actually made a version with cut out everything that's isn't manga, including openings etc, i think its "one pace"

Bleach recaps are not as bad as One Piece, but iirc they still get pretty damn bad in the next big arcs. One Piece is just a high bar lol.

I hope you don't think about firearms like the one from your avatar, but normal ordinary weapons, it was explained by certain main antagonist how spiritual pressure works, and why certain attack's didn't have any impact on him, human world m4 or ak47 wouldn't do anything.

oh come on, on the firearm thing it's a blatant lie I won't name names because of spoilers and not just him but also a certain captain falls in a related category, in the series you could have just said it fits with the user's mind set.

About recaps trust me its still really good here, in one piece you sometimes get 10-15min episode and im not even joking, intro, extra scene, recap etc.. its really bad.

Yea i don't mind if you guys have fun joking around, those episodes are still just a start and quite chill, as everyone can predict its gonna get intense later on, also about Zanpaktoue turning into any firearm, it wouldn't work as you except since the laws of spiritual pressure, if someone is powerful enough it would just do nothing, like throwing a rock .

The new outros have different visuals for each episode, which are pretty cool because each outro focuses on a different squad captain, so it's a bit of a shame you're skipping them.
