genryusai is dead

Bleach 511 marks the death of Yamamoto, he’s just been cut in half by Juha Bach, we remember a moment with Shunsui while they were still little. Soul Society is overtaken by foot soldiers, they start to turn everything into dust when a large explosion behind Juha Bach occurs which scares the hell out of him, could it be Ichigo?!

Bleach 511 starts out as Shunsui comes into Yamamoto’s room without permission, he is still very young and asks about a picture of Yamamoto while he’s Bankai is on. Yamamoto then beats Shunsui for entering his room without permission. He asks what this picture means, he thinks that it may be some kind of mythical god of fire or something.

Yamamoto says that it is a monster that appeared in Soul Society a long time ago, it came when Soul Society was in a mess, it messed everything up even more, but it will never appear again. Shunsui asks what will happen is it appears once more. Yamamoto remembers this moment from his past.

We see Yamamoto’s body drop dead whilst he still stands. He tells Shunsui that if it does appear again then he won’t be coming back. Shunsui feels the reiatsu of Yamamoto fluctuate and drop, he notices that something has gone very wrong and he shouts Old Man! He’s distracted by this and the Quincy who’s facing Shunsui takes the opportunity to attack!

Juha Bach tells Yamamoto that he’s the so-called elder of the Shinigami, it’s pitiful seeing Yamamoto die in such a way. He tells Hashvald that they’re leaving, at this point, Yamamoto fights for Soul Society by holding the cape of Juha Bach, Juha Bach doesn’t accept this and cuts off the hands of Yamamoto!

Juha Bach says even in his death, he doesn’t have any intentions of letting him leave? Juha Bach then places his shoes on top of Yamamoto’s head. He says that Yamamoto was never able to follow things through, because of this he wasn’t considered as one of the 5 War Potentials, he also didn’t heal his left arm from the help of Orihime.

Juha Bach explains that Yamamoto didn’t want to depend on a human for help, even during the battle with Aizen, he was uncomfortable about relying on Ichigo Kurosaki to defeat Aizen. He doesn’t just try to shoulder Soul Society but also the rest of the Humans too. That is why Yamamoto lost, explains Juha. He calls Yamamoto weak.

He then explains that the former Yamamoto was different. When the Gotei 13 first began, they were all known as divisions but were actually a bunch of murderous thugs. Because of this they were all feared. Yamamoto was the demon within that group who controlled everything.

Yamamoto would do anything to take down any of his enemies, someone who doesn’t care less for the lives of his subordinates. But after the extermination of the Quincy’s everything changed, Yamamoto started to protect as there was some peace, with this there was justice and pride, this brought down Soul Society, says Juha Bach.

Juha Bach explains to Yamamoto that no matter what, Soul Society will be destroyed, The Gotei 13 died a thousand years ago along with the Quincy’s. At this point, Juha Back unleashes a barrage of explosions surrounding Yamamoto turning Yamamoto’s body into nothing but dust. Everyone notices the disappearance of Yamamoto’s Reiatsu.

Juha Bach tells Hashvald that it’s all over, plus they need to convey to all Stern Ritter that they’re going to turn everything in Soul Society into rubble. They all receive the message and perform the Advance, Soldat (Literally Meaning Soldiers).

Large counts of soldiers appear, someone says that they should not panic because they’re all small fry, at this point, he’s stabbed by one of them! He dies, at this point, a large number of Shinigami’s died, one after the other, Soul Society is literally coming to an end here.

Juha Bach mentions that this is the end, they are now leaving, he mentions that the main forces of Gotei 13 have now disappeared, now the Division 0! is going to come out, thus they should retreat and wait for them to come out! Out of nowhere, a large explosion above Juha Bach appears, it seems like a gate has appeared, Juha Bach seems scared as it could be Ichigo at this point! Bleach 511 ends here!

What an epic journey we’ve had with Yamamoto! From his introduction, he has had the strongest Fire Type Zanpakutou, no one else except Juha Bach will be able to use it! Plus the reaction on Juha Bach’s face, after the explosion is as though Ichigo could finally appear.
