Beware manga spoilers in this video!

It's time for us to tackle the big ranking once again - the top 10 strongest Bankai in Bleach. I think I've got a fairly good list here, but as always, let me know what changes you'd make and why!

This list doesn't include the Bankai from the light novels, but it does include Bankai featured in the TYBW anime - I'll produce a full list once I have a better idea of where I'd rank some of the weirder Bankai, like Azashiro's.

Thanks everyone, and enjoy!

    Which Bankai is the absolute strongest in Bleach? Do you agree with my list at all? Let me know your rankings in the comments - thanks everyone!
  • It’s crazy you can have Bankai like mass resurrection of everyone you’ve ever killed, freezing things to absolute zero, and literal immortality, and then you have Baboon Snake.
  • Just realized something. Urahara's Bankai is a calculated nurturing woman and Kurotsuchi's is a giant baby lol
  • @ladonmccabe
    While not the strongest, and not even the strongest version, Renji's first bankai is still one of my favorite bankai designs.
  • @beauryan101
    I just want to see the future Yhwach witnessed that made him break Tensa Zangetsu, then cut to it being broken
  • @TheBigExclusive
    Yamamoto is the boss for a reason. His Bankai is not fancy. It's just raw destructive pure power. It's completely unsuitable for anything else except for annihilating enemies - without discussion.
  • @brickonator
    When he mentions using Shinji's bankai against the top 3 Espada all I can think of is them looking at each other and saying "we were never really allies in the first place".
  • @TheBigExclusive
    Remember that Yama used to be Senjumaru's boss before she got promoted to Squad Zero.
  • @vannederynen1
    The problem with ranking bankai or even just zanpakuto is it is impossible to separate the sword's strength from the character's strength.
  • Sad to not see Kamishini no Yari even in the honorable mentions. The sheer power can still be compared to TYBW potentials due to the concept of transcended Aizen. And as bland of an answer as if may be I'd still rank Tensa Zangetsu higher than Zanka no Tachi. It is indeed the blade to shatter fate and in theory can overcome any level of power. However great list and video as always!
  • I'm interested on if Kenpachi's Bankai will get a name in the Hell arc. I hope it either doesn't have/need one or is something simple like "Nozarashi Oni"
  • @Thronumgoroth
    The script for this video is fire! I like how you described Mayuri's bankai. Great job.
  • @the_intolerance
    these lists are like P4P or GOAT lists in combat sports, it's all based on personal opinion, but as long as the persons logic and criteria is sound, then at least the opinion can be respected.
  • @noahduffin5492
    I don't think it's necessarily true now, but when I first saw Kyoraku's Bankai, I thought this:- "That's really interesting, his Shikai makes games into reality,his Bankai makes reality into a game." It's not objectively right, I just like it as a concept of Bankai being an evolution of the Shikai's abilities. This felt the most stark (pun slightly intended) embodiment of that belief.
  • @Nofacekiller13
    I understand why Hisagi's Bankai isn't on the list, but I'd definitely place his pretty high on my own list. The seemingly inescapable death match concept is so cool and really shoes why Hisagi has the respect he does in the soul soceity. Despite his own internal struggles and disgust with what he does, he is still a shinigami and when push comes to shove he's ready to die for his job. And seeing that he reflected in his bankai really makes me enjoy him more as a character.
  • @tomsimpkins1211
    It feels so weird to see Senjumaru's be rated above Ichibe, but I guess Ichibe is a scarier guy by experience and connection to the Soul King and his secrets.
  • @gamma8995
    I think people forget too often gin's bankai like, a 13km sword ?? released in a second or something like that ? and a true power based on poison, which maybe could have killed aizen if he didn't got the hogyoku ? imo the fact that gin is absent in tybw arc make people forget how powerful his bankai was (sorry for mistakes if there are any)
  • @LupercalRising
    My personal favourite? Ukitakes Bankai. So powerful it couldnt be shown or he would delete the verse
  • @Momo16261
    Would be quite curious to hear the reason why Minazuki wasn't in the top 10, feel like acid that dissolves anything would be top 10 worthy Incredible video, thank you for the entertainment
