Talk:Wonders of the Blade

I hope people give this a read. This was an excellent method of discussing some of the really amazing aspects of Zanjutsu. It's too grounded in the physical on the site for many people, and it's clear, even in the canon with the introduction of Jinzen, that Zanjutsu is not solely swordsmanship. It just can't be when the sword a Shinigami wields is a living and breathing entity that one must connect with and achieve a level of resonance to work with properly. And then there's the abilities that each Zanpakuto grants; you'd think that in their connection, the Shinigami would obtain some of that ability even in the sealed state. Just look like Ichibe, who is clearly a Zanjutsu master. You have to consider all of the methods developed by the Samurai of Japan, and then think, how would these have worked in a world where the physical and the spiritual are one and the same? It no longer exists as just a philosophy but actually can become something real. Tangible. Influential. This is the potential that resides in a world like Bleach, so we definitely need more focus on stuff like this. Great job on this article, Nanja. --Silver-Haired Seireitou (Dosvidaniya, tovarisch.) 22:04, October 26, 2015 (UTC)
