yes, i realize that he was still considered "transcended" but he was still in the middle of his evolution, and could still be affected by those kind of attacks.
ichigo's arm was visibly burnt by the attack, yes. aizen thought he couldn't use this arm anymore, but he was wrong. remember though, this is after aizen evolved again. also remember, i never said the attacks wouldn't have any kind of affect on them, just not the same affect. where as yama's attacks would normally just erase people, it wouldn't do that to ichigo. remember, yama's ability wasn't to erase things, it was fire which burned so hot that that was the affect it had on people. but FGT ichigo being so powerful, would not be effected in the same way. if yama's not gonna get the one hit KO, which his bankai would usually have, he will just be outclassed in every way possible. same goes for ichibe.
By Aizen's definition of transcedent, once he entered it, he is high that ordinary characters can't hit him. But it was proven wrong multiple times in just around 10 chapters.
@ Underline
Wrong is key word. Everything Aizen stated was proven wrong, which make his stataments about transcedent so vague.
- Claiming that he transcedent both Hollows and Shinigamis, Gin was able to heavly damage him with ordinary bankai. AIzen would be even dead if he only had transcedent reiatsu.
- Claiming that he is now for sure highest being, than Ichigo comes and prove him wrong.
- Claiming that lower beings can't defeat highest beings, this was proven wrong in Gin's example and also when he was able to hurt Ichigo's arm. Ichigo's arm was still useful, but it had wounds on it, which by Aizen's definition shouldn't have.
- Claiming that he finally surpassed Ichigo, but Ichigo uses Mugetsu and prove him wrong again.
- Claiming that when Ichigo lose his powers he will be only one at the top, but at this time kido starting to take effect.
- Believing that Hogyoku will save him, but he was again wrong.
And all this happen in around 10 chapters.
