Who has the best way of saying "Bankai" ?

[The Nameless Pharaoh]

The title says it all.
My favorites are:-

1- Renji: I love it when he hardens the B and says Bankai !
2- Byakuya: He says it calmly

and
3- Ichigo: He pauses, Ban....Kai !.


Which are your faves?..

[Trias]

Saying it calmly is much more gracious.

[Shogun]

if kira izuru had bankai he would say it the best.

[omg laser pew pew!]

That was by far my favourite.

I'm guessing Urahara, manga spoiler or Aizen will have like a whole chapter of them saying bankai when it comes to it

[oakzap425]

Ikkaku


Can't wait to see the badassness animated...

[Usopp]

Mayuri

he was all giggling at Ishida, and almost choking on laughter

"ahahahaaaaha ha ha haaaaa *cough* huaahh ha BAN-KAI" :laugh

his voice is so awesome

[WhiteCherryBlossom]

Ichigo - Fiercly
Tousen - Like he doesn't care...
Komamura - Like he's pissed right off.
Hitsugaya - Like he's angry but trying to keep it in.
Byakuya - Calm
Renji - Loud, hehe.
Mayuri - All..evil like.

I dunno, I guess I would say Byakuya, because he's so confident and all, sounds awesome :amuse

[Trias]

if kira izuru had bankai he would say it the best.

His Shikai releasing style (first time) was so coooool, not the voice, but the move. I want a Bankai move like that ooh!

[Sesqoo]

Ichigo for sure. BAAAAN... KAI!

[Tsukiyomi]

I liked Byakuya's the best, it had a tone to his voice like "you're pretty screwed now".

[Sasori]

Hanatarou: h4x....KAI!!!!

But seriously, i love Ichigo's fierceness. Hanatarou would pwn him any day.

[Insipidipity]

Ichigo - Fiercly
Tousen - Like he doesn't care...
Komamura - Like he's pissed right off.
Hitsugaya - Like he's angry but trying to keep it in.
Byakuya - Calm
Renji - Loud, hehe.
Mayuri - All..evil like.

I dunno, I guess I would say Byakuya, because he's so confident and all, sounds awesome :amuse
So basically our answer is pretty much the same as it would be towards the question "who has the best voice and personality towards fighting"

But I agree, Bankai for Byakuya sounds like he's saying Good Bye.

[I.P. Standing]

Byakuya's "Bankai" = imminent doom

Hanatarou's "Bankai" = shit your pants!:yell

If his shikai is so h4xed, then his Bankai would make all of Hueco Mundo fall to it's knees before him....

[Tapp Zaddaz]

Byakuya & Mayuri say it the best. I just love Mayuri's voice no matter what he says.

[Sasori]

If his shikai is so h4xed, then his Bankai would make all of Hueco Mundo fall to it's knees before him....

Wow, his Ban Kai ability must be forcing head from his opponents or something :nuts

[Sawako]

Ichigo's way is my favorite way to say it. If I had a bankai, that's how I would say it. "Ban... KAI!"

I also liked the Ichigo/Shirosaki scene of them saying bankai! Like in the picture blue.rellik posted.

[Austeria]

Kuchiki Byakuya!

[notcomawhite]

renji's. [probably only because he's my favorite character- it's probably swaying my opinion here]

ichigo's is pretty ok too though =]

[Haineko]

Definitely Byakuya. His delivery is classy and deadly-- fitting for the nobility that he is. Plus, it helps that his voice is dead sexy. I had goosebumps the first time I heard him say it :amuse

[Kuchiki Ero-Sennin]

Hitsugaya, when he said it the first time against Aizen, it was so cool!!! So full of anger, I love it... Besides him, Renji does it very good too.

[Mangasearcher]

Byakuya in my Opinion.

[shadow__nin]

I like Kuchiki Byakuya the best, also Kurosaki Ichigo's is cool too.

[Danchou]

Kuchiki Byakuya says it elegantly, confident and calm. It's like a silence before the storm.

[TheGenius]

I think Hitsugaya says it the best because of the way he says it.

Its like he's controlling his anger but it just might come out like when he was fighting with Aizen.

If Quincys had a level of bankai like when Ishida took off his glove that would be cool too. Instead of taking off the glove they could controll their ultimate power but apart from that...HITSUGAYA!!

[Sasuke1_2]

I would have to say Byakuya....that calmness

But I look forward to hearing Hollow Ichigo and Ichigo together say it.

[Mat®icha]

i like it when ichigo says it

[Shunsuii]

I loved how Ichigo said it the first time it was like "BAN...KAI" cause I was waiting for it for so long. but Kuchiki says it awesome too, after the SS and when the fillers started, that was when I discovered the manga so Hitsugaya's was unexpected for me so It was sooooooooo AWESOME

[The Nameless Pharaoh]

I agree............

[Shunsuii]

^ yea I agree with AIR aswell, reps for AIR everyone!!!

edit: jk......:wink

That was by far my favourite.


agreed......... its my fav... next would be prob. just byakuya and ichigo....

[RadicalDreamer]

Out of them all i think Ichigo is the best. Its like he forgot it something "Ban.... ??"

[VaizardIchigo]

I don't have a fave but I do like when Byakuya and hitsugaya say it.

And I can imagine the HollowIchigo/Ichigo Bankai perfectly and it sounds cool.

[danteliveson]

Byakuya cause he sounds so relaxed like nothings gonna happen

[Knight of Fate]

I say Byakuya, I love how calm and cool he is when he says it.

[kimidoll]

Byakuya. So calm that you think nothing will happen to you, then you die :P

[Biohazard]

*Edit*

Sorry, forgot what section of the forum i was in. :P

its not really who, but i loved the scene where shirosaki and ichigo said it together when they were fighting. xD

[omg laser pew pew!]

']its not really who, but i loved the scene where shirosaki and ichigo said it together when they were fighting. xD

Spoiler that stuff buddy

[Mello]

I think that Byakuya says it the best.

[TheGenius]

The best way to say it is Bankai because he says it so gracefully that you know he has full control of it and you're in a lot of trouble! :P

[Geetay]

I think Hitsugaya's is the best, it's sort of silently angry. I would most likely say it the same way as him, If I could :P.

[Sasori-puppet#02]

I like how Ikkaku says it. He was getting pwnd by that arrancar and the last thing I expected him to pull off was a bankai.

[clouded_fate]

Unleash!!!!! [insert bankai name]

[TonitoX2]

I'd had to go with Renji's way of doing it.

[Elite]

My favorite is Byakuya's. So calm and cool.smile-big

[sayam]

everyone sounds cool when they say the words Ban kai.
I think I'll go with the flow here, byakuya says it best...

Ban kai! zenbonzakura kageyoshi

[UzumakiYondaime]

byakuya all the way. he says it calmly.

ban~kai
senbonzakura kageyoshi

[aznwolfstein]

I got to go with the majority and say Byakuya does have the coolest way of saying it though if Chad had one, and said it calmly, I think I would like it better.

[Soul Vibe]

hmm hard to say

Ichigo saying "Ban...Kai!" is sweet
but so is Byakuya's all emotionless way of saying it.

if i ever heard Shirosaki saying it then i would vote for him...but...

hm...
i guess i'll go with Ichigo for now. Emotional outbursts hold sway over me.

[Shunsuii]

No one can top Ichigo's Ban...Kai, plz watch ep58 again Ichigo's bankai was one of the greatest anime/manga moment ever! Its right up there with Goku's SSJ transformation.

[hao_asakura]

im gonna go with....ichigo....

[EonNinja]

Ichigo Ban...Kai lol sooo cool and it amuses me a little lol

[Waffletime!]

I liked Byakuya's the best, it had a tone to his voice like "you're pretty screwed now".

lol Agreed. ^^

[nessa17]

For meh it is either Byakuya's way or
Hitsugaya's way!!

[BBQ Demon]

1. Ichigo. he says it very fiercly
2. Renji cuz he says it very loud and very serious
3. Mayuri. sounds funny:laugh
4. hitugaya. he just sounds serious everytime he says it
5. Byakuya. he sounds very calm when he says it:amuse

[Shunsuii]

Im getting alot of null rep from this thread.

Re-rep me when you have enough posts smile-big

[Arroniro Arleri]

Ichigo's bankai was one of the greatest anime/manga moment ever! Its right up there with Goku's SSJ transformation.
Really? It didn't seem all that dramatic to me. It was cool but I place Goku's SSJ transformation above it.

[Shunsuii]

Well yea Goku Going SSJ First-time>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Ichigo Bankai First-time>Naruto Kyuubi First-time

[Arroniro Arleri]

Well yea Goku Going SSJ First-time>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Ichigo Bankai First-time>Naruto Kyuubi First-time
I couldn't agree more.

[Ara_Kensei]

I'd have to say Ichigo, because of the huge amount of spirital energy released at the time. But when Zaraki Kenpachi gets his bankai, his will be the best, because when he does it, all of existence will be destroyed.

[Ruach]

The most awesome way would be by Don Kaonji, you know after he dies and becomes a Shinigami(it's inevitable, after all he does have enough spiritual power to affect the physical and spiritual(Gohsts Hollows etc.) worlds. Can you just imagine that? I think it would be awesome if Rangiku could do it though, she'd be like "hey Gin come over here! I got something to tell you closer closer... I'll whipser it to you ban...kai" WHAM, that ould be hilarious.

[Parell]

Byakuya says it best, but I think if Yumichika were to get bankai he would say it the best. Sort of like reserved beauty and power mixed together.

[foxhermit]

ichigo's was the coolest the first time for sure

[ARCHFIEND99]

Definately Byakuya. He's so calm as he drops his sword and says it softly, "Ban...Kai". And his Bankai ain't just for show either.

Mayuri....I didn't really like his. What the crap was that thing? Buddha catterpillar?

[Ruach]

Well yea Goku Going SSJ First-time>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Ichigo Bankai First-time>Naruto Kyuubi First-time
I agree, the only problem is that Goku went super saiyan 4 times, not to mention the amount of times the other characters (achieved the next level).

[guiltyspark7750]

hitsugaya, because he released his in a state of turmoil and emotion, so bad ass.

[chaosas]

Byakuya's, I like his "I'm-an-arrogant-bastard-and-I'm-going-to-kill-you" attitude :)

[The Nameless Pharaoh]

Revived....

[Treima]

Byakuya's and Mayuri's. I don't like the ones where they sound like DBZ characters (i.e. Ikkaku and Renji).

[Sena Kobayakawa]

Probably Byakuya or Ikkaku.

[Bittergourd Tea]

Ichigo.

*Points his butcher knife forward*

BANKAI!!!!! :love :love

[Scum]

Byakuya's has been the best bankai. I love the way he says it in a calm manner.

[Maramusa]

Byakuya, no contest.

[Last leaf village ninja]

Gintoki... yea

[DragonKin]

In no particular order I think the best are:

Byakuya (friggin' calm demon)
Ikkaku (so much force behind it)
Hitsugaya (just the way he said it in ep. 104 followed by Daiguren Hyourinmaru!, prob. one of my fav moments in the series)
Ichigo (just coz its got that cool music and always larger then the last explosion that accompanies it)

Though i think if Zaraki ever got Bankai that would just be awesome but not likely right...

[Nanatsurugi]

The ones who said that Byakuya rules the game are so right!!!
Kuchiki-taichou says it in the best way. I just don't like that screaming and rejatsu bursting, when others do it.
The way Byakuya says "Ban Kai" is so smexy, I just lovelovelovewantlove him for that...

[-Demian-]

i still like byakuya's telling the most , from design i like the ikkaku's one and by power's ichigo's :)
that would be perfect bankai

[diamondedge]

Byakuya's, I like his "I'm-an-arrogant-bastard-and-I'm-going-to-kill-you" attitude :)

Hahahaha, obviously! :D

Yeah Byakuya for me is the best in every way possible, he doesn't even push himself. So aparently i love it when he says "bankai" too. Each time i like replay the scene for at least 10 times (exactly what happened today when 124 came out, grrrr).

If I had to make top 3:

1.) byakuya
2.) hitsugaya
3.) mayuri. -> don't look at me like that, his voice is awesome. :D

[Sasori scorpion of puppet]

I think Hitsugaya's is the best, it's sort of silently angry. I would most likely say it the same way as him, If I could :P.

I agree Hitsugaya's and Ichigo's are my favorite.

[Gaara of the Desert]

I like the way Ikkau does his as well as byakuya.

[NarutoMark]

Ikkaku or Byakuya

Im leaning towards Byakuya though.

[Blix]

I really like Ikkaku's way of saying bankai...the music and and the way his eyes glow made the whole thing awesome.

[Beluga]

Hitsugaya^^or Byakuya (his name remind me of the Byakugan xD)

[Byakuya]

Byakuya. :noworry

[Allen89]

Ikkaku. THe way his bankai was introduced was so badass I watched it 20 times in a row.

[Shinmaru]

*Comes crashing down in a tattered suit, with a shikomizue in my left hand*

The one who has the best way of saying "bankai" is Kuchiki Byakuya.

[Arcueid]

Ikkaku or Hitsugaya. I can't decide. >.<

[chrisp]

Byakuya by far. He reminds me of Itachi. And we all know how badass he is.

[asch]

Byakuya xD 'Senbonzakura Kageyoshi'

[The Nameless Pharaoh]

I wonder how Gin would say it.

[united]

byakuya and hollow ichigo

[duy202]

Byakuya ALL THE WAY!!!!
and ichigo but only when he first met the arrancer and he was protecting ohrime and sado and he was like byakuya sayin all calmy yet so scared...
besides when u say something that sounds so powerful and strong, makes it seemse your super uber strong >:D

[Barry]

2- Byakuya: He says it calmly






Yes *clapping my hand*:nod

[Pein]

senbon zakura kageyoshi
and ichigo BAN-KAI

[Soul Vibe]

I wonder how Gin would say it.

i imagine it will be insanely awesome when he does say it

[Keme]

Kuchiki Byakuya has to be my favorite. I admire the way it is stated, in such a fluid and eloquent manner.

[Last of the Arrancar]

eeehh ... what a thread..

I guess, the BAN should be said strongly, and must show the anticipation of the following word KAI, wich must be said in a strong and pwnage way. Both words should be said seperatly offcourse.

[Utz]

Ichigo says it really strongly, but for true badass-ness, Byakuya's way of saying it is awesome. So smooth and calm, you know the power is coming.

[Reanimater]

Ichigo's BAN KAI is a classic, can't deny it ; )
I'd love to see Zaraki pronouncing 'Bankai', he probably learned something after his fight with Ichigo and will start communicating with its blade a little bit more and boom, one day maybe he'll be able to use BANKAI as well ; )

[Cassius the Greatest]

Byakuya for sure, it's so hard to keep your calm when theres a situation when the use of bankai is necesssary. he just does it as if he was ordering coffee...

[mirai_trunks]

Actually I like how Madarame Ikkaku was saying it when he released it for the first time. It was slow and outraging.

[Portgas D. Ace]

Renji IMO.

[hatake uchiha]

Kenpachi will have the best way to say bankai

[Sasuke1_2]

Hollow Ichigo has the best way of saying it.

[Bankai 1000]

Ichigo with Tensa Zangetsu and Renji's Bankai :D

[Morati]

Ichigo, just shout it out!

[Full_metal_pancake]

I like the way Byakuya says it. Real nonchalant, kind of cold and controlled. Pretty how he is normally I guess.

[shinsei_kuragari]

Ichigo! I just love the way he stops after saying Ban.. and then he shouts ..kai!. So cool! Sometimes I find myself shouting with him xDD

Second is Hitsugaya.

[Dre]

Byakuya's says it the best, then renji and then ichigo.

[Grand Moff]

Ichigo wins bankai saying contest
I think 2 out of evey 5 bleach amvs have Ichigo saying bankai for the first time in them

[Byakuya]

I should also add that I love the way The Don says Bankai.

[Kikyo]

of course you do Byakuya. lol

Ichigo, I like the pause as well.

Byakuya...it's so calm is terrifying.

[cloystreng]

the following word KAI, wich must be said in a strong and pwnage way.

strong and pwnage way. why didnt i think of that?

[Legendarywun]

I think Renji is just bad ass in saying it all. I mean the Bank-kai and the How-l, Zaa-bimaruuu(i kno the spelling but this is how he pronounces it) its just bad ass. Although Byakuya is just chill. I don't kno

[Saya]

Hanatarou. :D: Byakuya

[Lux]

Byakuya and Renji. They both say it on different ways, but they mean the same: 'I'm gonna kick your ass.'

[Master Sasori]

Byakuya-calm.(which makes it cool.)
Renji-Cool.
i can imagine zaraki saying,in that crazy mode,it's gonna pwn.
Urahara-san should be saying it calm,so it might be cool too.

so Byakuya-sama for me :D

[November 11]

I gotta say Byakuya.

[Shirozaki]

Byakuya :spaz

The way he says it is just so calm.. and cool.

[Nice Gai]

Byakuya-calm.(which makes it cool.)
Renji-Cool.
i can imagine zaraki saying,in that crazy mode,it's gonna pwn.
Urahara-san should be saying it calm,so it might be cool too.

so Byakuya-sama for me :D

Zaraki yelling bankai would shatter the universe. He doesnt even have a Shikai yet. This can be devastating. I would have no other reason to read or watch bleach. I will be officially pleased with the series.

[Circe]

Urahara .

[NU-KazeKage]

shirosaki says it the best..or ichigo. ..or at the same time idk lol

[Lastier]

I like Mayuri's way of saying Bankai the best. After that comes Byakuya.

[Kaiwai]

Byakuya and Ichigo :D

[Shadow Blade]

Hands down, Ichigo.

[sharringan warrior]

I'm not looking through 7 pages of postings, but I'm pretty sure that everyone forgot Ikkaku.For those who did i'm sorry. He screams it: BANKAIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!

[Protege]

Top 3 for me is..

Ichigo
Byakuya
Ikkaku

=)

[Cassius the Greatest]

You gotta see me saiyng it... itll blow your mind

[zuhair]

Kuchiki Byakuya for sure very cooolll~~

[The Juggernaut]

Ikkaku
Shirosaki
Byakuya

[insanocrazedman]

Ikkaku says it the best. If your gonna use it, you should scream it out loud so your enemies can tremble in fear.

[Blix]

Ikkaku, then Shirosaki...and maybe Byakuya.

[Drk]

Ikkaku's loud way of saying it is the best. Then it's a draw between Ichigo and Shirosaki.
