Well if you think about it Ichigo has been fighting constantly since he arrived in Hueco Mundo, and while Orihime healed him that doesn't take away the mental fatigue. where as Byakuya and Zaraki haven't had to fight up until now and a fresh. Ichigo completely rested could still possibly beat both Byakuya and Zaraki, but who knows what kind of training those two put themselves through after losing to Ichigo in the SS arc.


Good point... I aslo kind thought Zaraki to be like Broly from DBZ. Broly only achieve the first form of super saiyan, and yet he's as strong as a Super Saiyan 3. If he achieved any level higher than the first stage he's be probably as powerful as SS4 Gogeta. Kenpachi is similar in not achieving Shinkai, yet beating powerful enough to match the other squad leaders... I'm thinking he'd be possibly as strong as the first squad captain if not stronger if he had achieved Shinkai and Bonkai. Just a theory, please don't hurl the stones at me please. dead

First of all it's not that simple as "beating someone means you are stronger than him". Against both Kenpachi and Byakuya Ichigo had a reason why he could not afford losing, and motivation has been proved to be a very good power up. When fighting Zaraki this was enough to him the battle, but against Byakuya he won because of Hichigo's appearance. Also whenever Ichigo's hollow mask has been broken or forcibly removed, Ichigo was found way to exhausted to fight. Lastly both Zaraki and Ichigo, being unable to suppress and control their enormous reiatsu, always have their zanpakutous in shikai forcibly, without having to command them, whether they know the name or not (Kenpachi).

I'll agree with you that determination can be considered a power up...
but I disagree with you saying that Kenpachi has his zanpakto in shikai forcibly.
In order to achieve shikai, you need to learn your zanpakto's name. So what Kenpachi has is NOT shikai...
Besides, when a Shinigami can't control their enormous spirit power, then they have an enormous zanpaktou.
Spoiler (highlight to view)
Do you recall what Ichigo's father said when he fought off the arrancar that was boasting about his large zanpaktou? He stated that all the captains in Soul Society would walk around with massive swords if they didn't control their spirit pressure

I forgot to proof read, what I meant to say was "being powerful enough." He hasn't achieved shinkai, and yet he's strong enough to match his fellow captains.... Also it seems that he uses his reistu like a shield....

Kenpachi has shikai.. It is stated in the databook of Bleach, which are the thoughts of Tite himself..

Shikai is the 'released' form of your Zanpaktou.. But Zaraki's reiatsu is so huge, that even if he tried, he couldn't contain his energy in to a compressed form.. He even said that at the fight with Ichigo.. Basically unreleased Zanpaktous are compressed forms of your spirit energy..

Also when Yoruichi was explaining to Ichigo that his Zanpaktou is always in a released state(shikai).. Ichigo then said "Like Zaraki.."..

So that rusty old Jagged Blade is his shinkai....

If it wasn't it would just be a regular looking katana. It is because of his relationship with his zanpakuto that it is in that condition.

And that's why it's in condition like that. Zaraki doesn't care about shikai and bankai, so he has a bad relationship with his zanpakuto, thus the ragged looks of it.
Right?

Yep, he didn't care about that.. He thought only wussies needed the help of their Zanpaktou.. But Ichigo changed that thinking..

Because Zaraki didn't acknowledge his Zanpaktou, they worked against each other.. They didn't work synchronized, like Ichigo and Zangetsu..

Could you imagine Zaraki being on good terms with his Zanpaktou..?! eek Ichigo couldn't even dent him then..

That's what I'm talking about Dr.Love, he's pretty powerful enough as it is without releasing his Zanpaktou... If he ever managed to do so then.... Um... He would be virtually unbeatable, an absolute monster so far as power goes....
