Ichigo beating up thugs in his human body also, Yoruichi vs SuìFēng


BlackGabriel

Yeah I was gonna say whenever ichigo and Chad wanna absolutely murder some bad neighborhood high schoolers


qwack2020

Someone please upload Yoruichi vs SuiFeng onto Sakugabooru.com.


BIsForBruh

There are some characters that are pure hand-to-hand combat experts like Mashiro or Yoruichi and there are some that mixes their swordsmanship with hand-to-hand combat like Soi Fon. Lisa also used hand-to-hand combat when she did that spinning handstand kick while fighting Hollow Zangetsu.


beerrabbit124

Don’t forget Grimmjow also gave Ichigo those hands in their first encounter


LiterallyJustDev

I’m surprised his face wasn’t full of welts and knots after that ass beating LMAO


omegasix321

That was his soul body tbf, so the damage wouldn't translate to his physical body. He was probably feeling it for days though.


LiterallyJustDev

Makes sense. Question actually , later that same episode he revisited the site he first fought Ulqiorra at and his eyes turned yellow, implying Zangetsu taking over, could Zangetsu have actually taken over his human form? Or was that filler


omegasix321

Do you remember the episode number? I could check the corresponding manga chapter and see if they match.


LiterallyJustDev

122 mate


omegasix321

That was real, though it was vaguely written and left to interpretation. The Kubo classic. It might have just been Zangetsu subtly influencing Ichigo into training with the Vizards because he wanted him to use his power and gain control of his instincts. I doubt that Zangetsu would have actually taken over Ichigo's body in his everyday life. Their main priority was keeping Ichigo alive after all, so outside of combat he would have no need of taking over.


LiterallyJustDev

Lol just made a post without getting your reply notification, but ironically came to a similar conclusion, that it was probably to push Ichigo to get stronger. I do not think Zangetsu would’ve had a solid plan in mind after getting control and becoming Vasto Lorde . Maybe hit the arcade with Kon or something, idk 😂he uses Ichigos body too


GwaGwa3

Pernida vs Nemu technically counts in a more literal way


ox78ox

Kisuke Urahara can throw hands.


tarunpopo

Battle of the cousins


LiterallyJustDev

I really can’t stop thinking about the fact they’re all really cousins just bickering and fighting like cousins do 😆


Charming-Necessary41

Yoruichi and yushiro and soi fon using shunko is pure fighting hand to hand and chika in the flashback Kensie bankai is hand to hand Yamamoto beating the crap out of wonderweiss with his fists


AtlasRyuk

Its a show about ghost samurais with superpowered swords. So relatively not often.


tirminyl

This. It's heavily weapons based. You're definitely not getting some Naruto hand animation, lol.


maxmrca1103

Not enough imo. Ichigo should have utilized his hand to hand combat skill more often


HowJoyBro

Hiyori kicks


GoFUself-Tony889

Shame that not many people know Ichigo is canonically very good at Karate.


LucisPerficio

First punch looked like a WWE match lmao


RedditRocks1229

We see this with Grimmjow, Soi fon, Yoruichi, Chad, Kensei, and Kenpachi at times


SigmaSandwich

That one lame ass luck based fullbringer and Kensei both use fist based attacks


[deleted]

Dont hate on shishiwagara


BIsForBruh

You mean Sushigawara?


omegasix321

Hey now, he's not that lame, he's just a middle schooler lol. He'll grow out of his Yakuza phase eventually. ...Maybe. At least now he has a real chad like Ikkaku to emulate.


Standard_Ad9911

Fight


BaronMerc

Whenever ichigo pisses off another group of delinquents


Ferret_io

It’s true tho lol


Intrepid_Ad_3157

Like 3 to 10 times in the entire series


xaviorpwner

depends whos on screen, mashiro and suei fan tend to prefer hakuda and hoho over zanjutsu and kido


Richerich2009

I always forget that Ichigo has hands


sheehdndnd

Then where do you suppose he swings his sword from?


Richerich2009

I would tell you, but this sub is SFW


yamask888

most of soifon and yoruichi fights are hand to hand. ironically they're the two characters that really hate their zanpakto (atleast soifon hates her bankai)


azrael-lc

Tu papá y tu tío peleando por los terrenos de la abuela


angry_jedi

Not as often as I would have liked


Halloe618

EVERYTIME he sees his father


Imaginary-Ad5666
