He's going to have to have one. No way Kubo brought him back only to be taken out so easily!

Probably not. He doesn't need one. In base, he's already powerful enough to be on par with Shikai Ichigo. His Resurreccion will be sufficient to put him at a level where he can fight Elite Quincies.

Base grimmjoww is not on par with shikai ichigo.

OT: I think he does, he wouldn't have given ulqiorra a second release if it wasn't possible for others to get one.

How do you know that?

OT: Grimmjow was the fastest growing Espada, his growth rate has been noted to be special he hadn't even entered his prime, I'm sure he's an absolute beast right now. If someone were to get a 2nd Etapa it'd be Grimmjow.

Yes he is:


Grimmjow's brief display of power made Ichigo so wary that he immediately drew his sword. If Ichigo thinks that Grimmjow can threaten him, it shows that they're on the same level. Plus, given what we know of their rivalry, it's contextually nonsensical that Grimmjow at his weakest can't at least compete with Ichigo at his weakest.

For starters it's Kubo, I easily see him using Grimmjow for minor reasons even if it would be logical not to. Secondly he hasn't even unleashed his 1st Resurreccion, so there isn't a reason to assume he now has a 2nd one. None of the top three Espada had that, nor any of the others for that matter. It was something unique Ulquiorra, so it's not because he could do it, now suddenly it has become something any Arrancar can achieve like a Shinigami's Bankai. It might even be possible that Ulquiorra's 2nd form was in fact his real Resurreccion and that his 1st form was merely a temporary phase.

Remember Of course not, he was a random fraccion who got one shotted (Well, two shotted, it was Soifon.)

Anyway, he had a very similar ability, with two distinct Resurrection forms [ ][ ]

Although i do thing Ulq's Secunda Etapa is more than just his full ressurecion. It is called the second release, after all.

Ichigo drawing his sword doesn't mean anything. It only means that if ichigo stands there like an idiot grimmjoww could hurt him.

And via bleach logic, if base grimmjoww was equal to shikai ichigo then bankai ichigo is similar to released grimmjoww and then second release grimmjoww would be greater than ichigo. Even if ichigo had another power up they would be equal. This doesn't make any sense given that ichigo is not only the main character but is expected to defeat YH or ishida both of which are far stronger than any opponent grimmjoww will face.

No inchigo face made it seem he was in great danger so he pulled out his sword if Grimmjow was no where near him in power he would have not looked so scared or pulled out his sword for that matter.

An I'm pretty sure they can sense one anothers power aswell.

You're speculating too much here. There's nothing indicating Released Grimmjow will be equal to Bankai Ichigo. Nor is there anything indicating that any extra power-up Ichigo will receive will only make him equal to Segunda Etapa Grimmjow.

Says the one who is calling grimmjoww equal to ichigo based on one panel. Bleach works like this, one character starts losing, he then uses shikai, the other starts losing, he uses shikai the other starts losing and he starts using bankai etc. by calling them equal it suggests that grimmjoww is equal every time he goes to another form.

Ichigo a face suggested only that he know grimmjoww is dangerous, not that he can't handle him. Only in an aizen vs captains type matchup or ichigo vs kenpachi in ss arc does the stronger person not draw his sword. And he didn't look scared at all he looked surprised and angry because last he fought grimmjoww he was an enemy and so he prepared for a fight. No more no less.

What does it matter that grimmjow is dangerous? Don't mea. He needs to draw his sword while looking scared an yea that was a scared look not surprised an angry...Yea zaraki an aizen drew their swords but they won't scared looking like ichigo an aizen had his sword out for his illusions an zaraki likes to slash people so of course he had his out..

An no that look ichigo had for grimmjow was the same look he gave ulqiorroa when he went into his r2 form.

Kubo: You get a bankai, you get a Bankai, we all get bankais!
