[Discussion] Soul King: Lynchpin or a threat that needs to be taken down?

[mikeeozua]

So far as we have seen throughout the series, the Soul king has been portrayed as a kind of 'Lynchpin' figure in the series. But is he really as holy as we think? Yhwach stated in chapter 546, that he was going to Reclaim the world. This could suggest that the Soul King and Yhwach have interacted before in history. Now incomes all these questions:
-Who was responsible for dethroning Yhwach?
-Did the Soul King tell Yamamoto to form the Gotei 13 to get rid of Yhwach?
-Why did Yhwach even need to be dethroned?

These questions all are likely to tie back to the Soul King, so the question is do you think he is a lynchpin figure, or a threat?

the soul king is needed, without him then there would be no soul society

Kubo is making juha look like a man who loves peace recently. .but it also true that juha is trying make vandenreich like soul society because he wants his race to survive and cherish . .

but for that they need shinigami's to die because shinigami's try to maintain the balance b/w soul society and earth whereas quincies completely extinguish the hollows which would lead to imbalance. .

it's not like shinigami completely hate quincies for nothing, they hate quincies techniques which always ends in bringing disaster to the world, so thats why soul king must have ordered to extinguish the quincy race which created a conflict b/w quincy and shinigami's. .

Hence soul king's perception is to protect the earth which is not a threat to human world but to quincies whereas juha's intention is to extinguish shinigami's and protect his own race which is a threat to shinigami's as well as to the earth. .
