How Ichigo became a hollow

[Shadowalker]

Just a thought, but as we see in one of rukias flash backs her VC was taken over by a hollow, and when he was taken over the hollow said that they were now one spirit entity (hollow + shinigami) and then rukia killed him, if he was reincarnated as ichigo which people have speculated one because they look so much alike, could the hoillow that took over the VC be the hollow side of ichigo or could the VC himself be the hollow side of ichigo?

this topic has been discussed very often :winking56 ... but i doupt that Kaien = Ichigo and Kaiens Hollow = Ichigos Hollow. They are both different persons. Kaien got his hollow because that hollow fused with him and Ichigos hollow is a special one (we don´t know the reasons yet why he has this hollow).

[Zangetsu Tensa]

Ichigo's hollow is unique in the world of Bleach. The Shinigami-Hollows were once Shinigami that used forbidden techniques to gain Hollow powers, and the Hollow-Shinigamis are Hollows mutated by Aizen to gain Shinigami powers.

Ichigo, however, is not either. He transformed into both at the exact same time. When Urahara had him down in the pit, his chain expired at the same time he transformed into a Shinigami, giving him that mask that he broke off. This accounts for there being two seperate Ichigo entities.

aint he like the vaizards?

didnt that guy, the weird sky wlaking person, say that he was of their race and he belonged with them?

i think tensa's thoughts on how the hollow formed is probably right though

[brolijc]

i thought Ichigo started to have another hollow inside of him from that time Urahara trained him, maybe because at that time he did not completely get rid of the hollow, or maybe the way to attain hollow powers is to try to become one and then overcome it so as to not become a full hollow

shouldn't this topic be called something else since you can see it on the main menu.

I think it should be called something else as not everyone has read the manga.

good point, my fault.

Anime viewers should already know that Ichigo has a hollow inside, if they have seen past whatever episode Ichigo gained his powers back, which is where he gained his hollow.
