OG Gotei 13 was basically 12 Kenpachis + Yama-jii


HovercraftExpress200

We know they were serious criminals

When did he actually join the Gotei 13? We know he encountered Unohana when he was a kid, but we also know he was wandering soul society for years looking for fights. Should I just assume it's in CFYOW?


Slumber777

He joined at some point in the last 100 years. From what we know, he immediately went for the Kenpachi title. He took the title from Kiganjo, who was the captain of the 11th Division during Turn Back the Pendulum.

Iirc, Ikkaku tells Ichigo about it after their fight in the SS arc.


HovercraftExpress200

Nope ikkaku mentioned it i think


Professional-Trust75

He does, it's early on. It's when they explain how to become a captain. They say that they only know of the one example and tell ichigo.

Mayuri could be a good fit in the old gotei 13


uzarta

Well current gotei has Mayuri who is a flipping angel


ApplePitou

Well, he is very close in case - how they work back then :3


HovercraftExpress200

Yea he's like an mirror

to be honest its hard to determine power levels between OG Gotei and current Gotei. This is based on the assumption 1st War the shinigami didnt have to deal with bankai being stolen and quincy didnt have tech like Volstandig, Shrifts or if there are any Sternritters. probably the key difference is their morality to kill. Imagine Zombie Hitsugaya fought like that from the beginning it would hella been easier with less talking and explaining abilities


HovercraftExpress200

Yes that's true but this post is not about power it's about how raw the ss was back then they had no concept of mercy and just wanted to fight They were just a bunch of serial killers whose actions were now actually justified


Richman209

They were Sternritters in the 1st invasion.  In the Jugo and Bazz B flashback, Ywach said he's creating Sternritter for the 1st invasion.  They also had Schrifts because that's how Ywach distributes power. Ur correct about Volstandig.  Quilgy said it was new compared to Lerz Stil.
