Excellent points Nanja. The zanpakutou is more than just a weapon its the Shinigami's partner, and more than that, its the embodiment of the Shinigami's very soul, their unrealized potential and power. Only through the struggle can one ever hope to reach the height of their power. Hmm I may have to go ahead and make another character for this challenge.
