GenryuSaiShigekuni Yamamoto (hereafter referred to as Genryusai) is the commander of The Thirteen Court Guard Squads and a man with a long white beard. He's quite the force and has been the 1st Division Commander of The Thirteen Court Guard Squads for over 1,000 years. He sometimes makes ruthless decisions in order to protect the Soul Society, but he also treats the soldiers he has known for a long time like his own children.

Genryusai established ”Soul Reaper Tougakuin(死神統学院)”, which is the basis of ”Shinoureijutuin(真王霊術院)”, which is said to be an educational institution for Soul Reaper. Originally named Shigekuni Yamamoto, he was the founder of a martial arts school called “Ganryuu(元流)” and served as a master of “Ganji Juku(元字塾)”. He originally had a scar on his forehead that looked like the Japanese character for katakana "no(ノ)", so he came to be called "Eijisai(ノ字斎)".After that, Sasakibe, who became Genryusai's vice-captain, gave him an additional scar and turned into a cross, so he began to call himself "Genryusai(元柳斎)".

In Japan, the Kanji "sai(斎)" is a Kanji used as an honorific for masters or masters, and Genryusai came to call it "Genryuusai" by combining "Genryu(元流)" and "sai(斎)" of his own school.

About Genryusai's Zanpakutou

Sikai : Ryujin Jakka





Ryujinjakka Taimatsu
(Quote : BLEACH Manga)

Ryujinjakka joukaku enjou
(Quote : BLEACH Manga)

Ryujinjakka Ennetsu jigoku
(Quote : BLEACH Manga)

Zanpakutou's Shikai move called Kaigou is a spell-like spell used to unleash "All things in the universe turn to ashes". Ryuujinjakka, which Sousuke Aizen called the strongest Zanpakutou, is a zanpakutou that can manipulate fire. Because it is too powerful, it is usually sealed as a staff, but when Shikai is activated, the temperature rises enough for the soldiers to evacuate.

Ryujinjakka is written in Kanji as "流刃若火". Literally translated, “流刃” = flowing blade, ”若火”= young fire. ”Yong fire” is an old looking Genryusai, but it might be that he has a young fire at his heart.

The techniques that can be used when Shikai is as follows.

Ryujinjakka Techniques(流刃若火)
Technique Nameliteral translationTechnique Description
Taimatu(松明)TorchA single swing of Ryujinjakka creates a super-hot flame that instantly burns everything around it.
Joukaku Enjou(城郭炎上)Castle Burst into flamesCreates a wall of fire to surround the enemy and prevent them from escaping.
Onibi(鬼火)Devil FireCreates heat holes in distant enemies
Nadegiri(撫斬)Stroking and cuttingCleave the enemy in two with a flash of flames wrapped around the blade.
Ennetsu Jigoku(炎熱地獄)Scorching HellGenerates a huge pillar of fire over a wide area. Burns everything in range, so Genryusai and Other Soul Reaper allies will also burn. Preparations are required to launch.

In the work, I used 4 techniques in the Shikai state, all of which are techniques that burn the enemy with high temperature flames, and combined with Genryusai's swordsmanship, it has become a very strong Zanpakutou.

When Genryusai is fighting, it looks like we'll be able to have barbecue nearby.

If you do that, you'll burn too Well-done to the inside Firmly

Bankai : Zanka no Tachi

Genryusai's Bankai calls it "Zanka no Tachi", which when written in kanji translates to "残火の太刀." Bankai fights by concentrating all the fire on one point of his sword against Shikai, who has spread fire over a wide area until now, with ”残火の” = embers and ”太刀” = sword. Shikai is better suited for mass combat, while Bankai is better suited for one-on-one combat.

Zanka no Tachi also has four techniques, divided into north, south, east and west.

Zanka no Tachi East : KyokujitsuJin (残火の太刀 東 旭日刃)
Zanka no Tachi East
(Quote : BLEACH ANIME)

Zanka no Tachi fights by focusing Genryusai's Zanpakutou flames on a single point of his sword. Anything that touches it will not burn, but will be extinguished with high temperature heat. Its heat is supposed to be hotter than the sun.

Zanka no Tachi West : Zanjitsu Gokui(残火の太刀 東 残日獄衣)
Zanka no Tachi West
(Quote : BLEACH ANIME)

Zanjitsu Gokui is a technique that protects the body from flames of 15 million degrees like a kimono. If you write Zanjitsu Gokui in kanji, it will be "Zanichi Gokui", meaning "残日" = day left, "獄衣" = prison uniform.

Zanka no Tachi South : Kaka jumanokushi Daisoujin (残火の太刀 南 火火十万億死大葬陣)
Zanka no Tachi south
(Quote : BLEACH ANIME)

I think Kaka Jumanokushi Daisoujin is the coolest move in Genryusai's Zanpakutou. If you write this technique in kanji, it will be ”火火” = double fire, ”十万億死” = 100 million deaths, and ”大葬陣” = large funeral.

The corpses of enemies that Genryusai has defeated with Zanpakutou become skeletons and attack until Enemy die. During the battle with Yhwach, Yhwach's men turned into skeletons and attacked Yhwach. It's a very scary technique.

Zanka no Tachi North : Tenchi Kaijin (残火の太刀 北 天地灰尽)
Zanka no Tachi north
(Quote : BLEACH ANIME)

Tenchi Kaijin unleashes a blaze of embers. The heat will extinguish even enemies outside the sword's range.

If you write Tenchi Kaijin in kanji, it becomes "天地灰尽", which means "天地" = heaven and earth, "灰尽" = end up ashes.

What is Genryusai's Battle record?

VS Bazz-BWIN

YhwachLOSE

Genryusai’s battle record is 7 wins, 2 losses and 1 draw.

When Genryusai wins, he almost instantly kills Ryujinjakka. It seems that Yhwach and Sousuke Aizen had taken proper countermeasures against Genryusai, and Genryusai lost.

In the fight against Sousuke Aizen, Wonderweiss blocked Ryujinjakka, but he defeated Wonderweiss with his bare hands. However, Ryujinjakka, which Wonderweiss had sealed, exploded, and Genryusai was seriously injured, resulting in him losing to Sousuke Aizen.

If Genryusai hadn't sealed Ryujinjakka, he might have won the battle against Sousuke Aizen. In the battle with Yhwach, Genryusai was defeated in the same way.

Due to his serious personality, Genryusai is vulnerable to a surprise attack based on a well-thought-out plan.

The end of Genryusai

Genryusai death scene
(Quote : BLEACH ANIME)

In the battle between Genryusai and Yhwach, Genryusai's Bankai dominated in the early stages, but it was Royd Lloyd who was disguised as Yhwach who was fighting. Royd Lloyd exhausts Genryusai and the real Yhwach steals Genryusai's bankai and cuts it in half, killing Genryusai. Genryusai's death shocked the Soul Society.

Kurotsuchi Mayuri points out that Genryusai missed Yhwach in the battle with Lichtreich, the source of Wandenreich 1000 years ago.

Genryusai probably didn't expect Yhwach to proceed so carefully, the strongest man in the Soul Society has died.

I was shocked to see Genryusai die here.
