Bleachpeaks in more ways than one, especially through its iconic transformations and power scaling. Of all the Bankai in the series, Sosuke Aizen’s transformation remains a mystery to this date.
For all we know, the character has exhibited his shikai in the series. While it is confirmed that he has a bankai, there might be a solid reason for the character’s secrecy regarding his abilities.
The former 5th division captain wields unprecedented power and intelligence. With his ability to control and lead the Arrancars, he was able to reach his goals.
While we got a glimpse of his powers through Kyoka Suigetsu, one thing is certain. The true extent of his powers stands uncharted because of his Bankai’s uncontrollable nature as this fan theory posits.
Aizen has an uncontrollable Bankai according to this theory
Sosuke Aizenis one of the strongest characters in Tite Kubo’s series. As a former captain of the 5th division, he wields unprecedented power. His cold and calculating persona coupled with his intelligence made him a formidable opponent.
From creating an army of Arrancar to manipulating his comrades, the character is more menacing than he looks. This is especially true with his utter disregard for human life along with other soul society members. However, there’s more to it.
As a leader of the Arrancars and a former captain, he is unparalleled in many aspects including intelligence and strength. His mastery of Kido, Shunpo, and Hakuda makes him formidable in every aspect. To top it off, his Zanpakuto is considered one of the most lethal ones in the series.
So far Kyoka Suigetsu is revealed in itsShikai formthat can incapacitate enemies through illusions. and since the form controls all the five senses, it takes a skilled Shinigami to break free from the control. While Ichigo and Urahara broke free from the illusions, there might be a greater power behind the Zanpakuto.

According to afan theory, his Bankai might be uncontrollably strong which could explain the mystery behind it. Most fans have speculated about the character’s Bankai and its nature. In a similar vein, most shinigami have their Bankai banned including Shinji as well as Shunsui.
And while there has been no confirmation regarding his type of Bankai, one thing is certain. The series has yet to explore the true nature of his strength and power.
Bleachhas yet to charter this territory
Bleachfandom had wild theories regarding the character’s Bankai. From not having Bankai to having untamed Bankai, fans took it upon themselves to speculate possibilities.
With a Shikai as potent as Kanzen Saimin, one thing is certain. The secrecy around the character’s ultimate form is anything but plot armor. With his pivotal role inThousand Year Blood War, Kubo might have his reasons for not charting this territory. And there’s more to it.
With hiscomebackinThousand Year Blood War, Aizen was able to thwart Yhwach with his Shikai. By trapping the Quincy King in his illusions, he was able to incapacitate him completely.
This, however, leaves several questions and territories unexplored including the nature of the character’s abilities. While the series has yet to fully explore this aspect, it is highly unlikely.

With the manga’s completion in 2016, one can only hope for future sequels to address these mysteries. For all we know, Aizen’s immeasurable strength and power will remain a mystery nonetheless.
Bleachis available for streaming on Crunchyroll. The manga is available for reading on Viz Media.
