i thought he said members of the secondary branch of the family had a seal on them to protect to the hyuuga secret techniques from being stolen by enemy ninja?
is that a joke...and if it wasnt...then no...he would only have 180...and yes no depth perception

I wasn't joking. The byakugan 360 deal doesn't work by making one eye look forward and the other in the back. It is therefore clear to me that both eyes give 360 images.

My Zanpakuto
Spoiler:
Unreleased form
Spoiler:
In it's sealed form my zanpakuto looks like a regular katana except that it has the words "Knowledge is the greatest power you shall gain" encrusted on it's blade and the hilt is blue wrapped in a black ribbon and has a blue horse hair tassel.
Shikai
Spoiler:
My shikai's opening command is "Bring me victory".It's soul's name is "Demonic Warrior".In my shikai I control the carbon atoms that make up my sword.
First technique "Critical Pressure"
With this technique I condense my reiatsu to make my blade change it's density or molecular binds meaning my sword doesn't have to get smaller to become sturdier.Thus my blade can be as weak as pencil lead or as hard as diamonds.
Second technique "Divide & Conquer"
Since my zanpakuto is made of atoms I can make them divide into as many pieces as I want to.This means I can make myself a second sword or I can change them into other weapons such as a bow and arrow. My best use of this technique is to make it split into pieces of one atom (the particles will now be invisible to the naked eye) and make them go within the enemy's body.This overdose of carbon will kill the enemy within minutes.
Third technique "Fatal Inferno/Fatal Blizzard"
With this technique I can change the vibration speed of the carbon thus making it hotter(Fatal Inferno) or colder(Fatal Blizzard).By making the vibrations faster I can make it as hot as the sun's surface or slower to make it as cold as 1 degree Kelvin.
Fourth technique "Rai no Jigoku"(Hell Lightning)
By making the electrons spin faster "Demonic Warrior" is filled with negative charge.This produces an amount of electricity equivalent to the amount produced in China's Three Gorges.
Bankai
Spoiler:
My bankai is called "Demonic Warlord" and is activated by the sentence "Bring my enemies defeat".
It's first technique is called "Essential Unity"
To activate this technique I stab myself in the chest. Once I do,I merge myself with my zanpakuto(It attaches to my arm) and I can use all of the abilities I had in shikai. Providing me a nearly impenetrable defense(I am immune to any attack that is sharp in nature). Note:none of the actions taken by me will damage me for example the stab I use to activate my bankai or the temperature used in the second technique of shikai.
Second technique "Rotting Cage"
To activate this technique I must throw my zanpakuto into the air and call out the name of the technique. Once in the air my sword shatters into millions of pieces then it reforms in the shape of a coffin around my enemy.This cage will get smaller every second and will still provide me the full arsenal of techniques I have in shikai.It will also let me use kido and other techniques that in which I need to use my hands.
Third technique "Coup De Grace"
This is technique that requires the most concentration as it is the most powerful one of my bankai. It's also the most unique as it is not a technique itself, but rather a combo of two or more of any of the previous techniques.
Spoiler:
Second Bankai Stage:
Everything stay the same except that i can now make carbon atoms out of anything(certain conditions apply) and I can control all their physical and chemical properties. This has a backdraw though, it requires a lot of time and a lot of reiatsu.

Zanpakutou - Hall of fame entry:
Spoiler:
Goroth's Stallion (Ateuma)
Spoiler:
Zan name: Stallion (Ateuma)
Fighting type: Mid and close range
Unreleased:"Stallion or The Stallion of the Mountains" is a weapon forged in the high mountains of the far western province of ancient Mongolia. In it's sealed state is a traditional music instrument. In its sealed state, it is not capable of engaging in melee combat like others. However it can give a distorting sound to the enemy to quickly pose for battle. The zan is carried on the back of my deel (see Shikai form for the costume) Sealed zan:Spoiler:
Released zan: Spoiler:
Shikai (1) command:"Slay! Seering Stallion" (Kirikorosu, Senken Ateuma!) Shape and form: Ancient war bow & arrow with an everyday life deel. Stallion's first release will be the first in the sub-release as well, starting from this point it beautifully morphs into a bow and arrow. Because it's literally feeding of the reaitsu it's size and other attributes can be modified with ease. A sign of mastering the swordsmanship and marksmanship. Spoiler:
Shikai (2) command:"Attack! Slicing wind of the Stallion" (Utsu, Kaze Suraishingu no Ateuma!) Shape and form: Same as the previous sub-release, other than the weapon morph, nothing else is changed. Spoiler:
Second to the stage, the bow and arrow are now shield and sword. Fighting range decreases but speed doubles as the name suggests, slicing wind, the blade's bended shape is perfect for flash-strikes. During sub-release in shikai, the side-effect of the attack transparency is activated. The reason behind this is, whenever attacking, step by step moves create false image, like a split second clone. It's a both defensive and offensive advantage while in flash-strikes.
The second initial release will be devoted for close range fights. Perfect for force and flexible move orientated strikes. The blade of the sword will be covered in reaitsu flows, which can imitate a saw like movement with high-speed to cut into it's opponent's weapon or body. Same effect for the shield as well, to deflect and decrease the force of a coming attack. Side effect:Once in a while, the slicing strike combined with devilish speed can severely damage the opponent in multiple places. This move is called whip of the black stallion.
Bankai command:"Arise! Black Stallion Horde" (Okoru! Kuro Ateuma!) Bankai form: Spoiler:
Shape and form: Ultimate form of the shinigami prevails as the ban-kai is activated and all hell breaks lose, literally. The shinigami has the stallion as his weapon and faithful horse. Armed with the blade and shield, battle armor is also formed.
Final release will triple the speed of the previous stage and it will be very fast and deadly. All shikai sub-release and abilities can be used in this stage and as bonus, the reiatsu pressure also triples making the opponent slow down, thus making striking more successful (do not forget the whip of the black stallion)
When attacking, the reaitsu flow will be devastatingly large and the sheer pressure will cause the opponent to slow down intensively, rendering him to become earth-bound. Once the opponent's speed and movement decreased, the actual strike will take seconds to form. This attack is called Black Stallion Horde's Wrath (Kuro Ateuma Gekirin!). The warchief (me) unleashes the gates of hell and awakens dead souls (battle fallen ones) from another realm and circles the opponents. They too emit the huge pressure and eventually pins down the prey. Once trapped and nerveless, they strike with full force combined (arrow + blade slice). Attacking:Spoiler:
Bankai passive ability: The reiatsu pressure is also known as Doom. The opponent is encircled by the stallion army (horde) and virtually has no way to escape, hence the name.
Zan spirit: Spoiler:
Long time ago, there was a Warlord in the ancient central Asia lands and he had the most feared army of all, the Black Stallion Horde or the Horde in short. Commanding and general of the horde, he also ruled with an iron fist. Not only being a blood thirsty warrior, he also practiced age old religion and is said to have been gained his montrous strength from the hellbound spirits. To obtain great power and mind, he sacrificed his soul and now the demon resides in him...
Vizard and other stuff coming soon.
Big thanks goes to Nana for the translation, thanks!
All shinobi can use any element. Possibility is there. The problem is compatibility.
Silent chidori? I thought it was silent raikiri.
......Dude, don't you know that Chidori and Raikiri are two names for the exact same technique? Remember the first time it was introduced? Gai says that it was named Chidori because it sounds like a thousand birds chirping, and Kakashi nicknamed it "Raikiri," meaning "Lightning Blade" because he was able to cut a bolt of lightning in half with it. Don't you remember? Kakashi was the one who invented the Chidori, and he taught it to Sasuke. In the Kakashi Gaiden, he used the technique for the very first time in his life, and he called it "Chidori".

Anyway, about the seal...yeah, it's just a symbol that they put on the members of the lower family to control them and keep them from getting out of line. It's also to protect the family's secrets. And like NVIT said, it's also a sign for slavery. Neji has it on his forehead.
@Eechigoo: Nice salute pic. I'll them both to the front page later. I have to go now.

Wanna Learn Something? Here are some quotes in the spoiler tag that you guys may want to look at; they're awesome quotes with great descriptions, you might actually learn something!
Spoiler:
"Life is a game; if you don't have the skills, you won't succeed."
--Me.
As Zei's Sig used to say, "The Bankai doesn't make the person, the person makes the Bankai".
"You can't have everything done your way; otherwise, you'll just become arrogant."
--Me. This ties in with the thing about nobles: nobles basically get everything they want, and when they don't get something they wanted, they think things like "How could this have happened?!" or "I'm supposed to be the center of everything; the world revolves around me!" But hey, we know that the world revolves around the sun, so that kind of thinking is just wrong; and that, my friends, is what being arrogant is like. Nobles that are arrogant also tend to think that commoners always mean them harm; either that or they just want to "wound their pride". But of course, there are some nobles that are good hearted and actually care about the part of society that aren't nobles--since this is about the Bleach anime/manga series, I'll use two examples of this type of noble person from the Bleach series: Yoruichi (of course, I mean c'mon! She is a princess, but does she care about rank?! No, she doesn't!) Example 2: Ukitake.
OK, now this one I learned from life: "Life isn't fair; don't fret or worry too much if you don't get a certain thing you wanted, or if something isn't done how you hoped or wanted it to".
"When asking a question, remember what the what the question was to be able to answer it." Means that when you are asking a question, you should always remember what the question was to answer it.
"Looks can be deceiving--don't always go by what you think is the truth based on how things appear (to the eyes)."
"No one is perfect; everyone makes mistakes."
- Of course it's a cliche (spelling?) saying, but it's still a damn good one.
"Don't believe half of what you hear and don't always believe everything you see."
-Another cliche saying, but this one is also a damn good one.
As Notorious Uzimaki quoted Gandhi in the 3rd Division, "Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony". [Uzimaki's explanation of the quote: "too often not the case, rationalizing mis-actions, cognitive dissonance. i always try to remind myself of this quote in difficult situations."

[Avatar: The Last Airbender FC (FC is inactive, and there's no working banner atm, either.]
The Realm of Kokuraimaru is a huge, wide, endless plain covered with countless craters, gashes, and burn-marks, while also being shrouded in darkness, as it is always nighttime there. There is a faint, eerie glow however, due to there being a group of extremely dense storm clouds present in the sky, from which high voltage lightning comes out to scorch the ground. There are also strong and violent gales that constantly blow in this inner world.
The storm clouds almost always have in them thunderstorms that have black lightning with a dark-blue outline. That black lightning within the inner world is itself Kokuraimaru. He is everywhere within this realm, as an almost omnipresent being.
As he is made purely of lightning, he is actually able to take virtually any form he wants (note: this ability does not translate into Shikai or Bankai; it is Kokuraimaru's ability alone). Whenever I go into my inner world outside of Bankai, Kokuraimaru would take his lightning form out of the other places and present most of it in front of me temporarily in the form of free-flowing lightning (for the amount of time that I am in the inner world).
He was not always a Zanpakutō Spirit. Originally, he was Raijin, the Japanese Shinto god of storms, thunder and lightning. He "died" and later reincarnated as my Zanpakutō with some help from Ouetsu (creator of Zanpakutō) in the process of becoming my Zanpakutō, according to what he's told me. He has a companion wolf made of the same dark blue energy as he is, with his body wrapped in lightning. His name is Kokuraiko ([黒雷子] Dark Lightning Child) and he is an incarnation of Raijū, who is said to be a companion of Raijin in Japanese mythology and Shintoism. Whenever black thunderstorms are occurring, he gets agitated and creates trouble within this Realm. Kokuraimaru has to flex his reiatsu to calm him down. Sometimes, when that is not enough, I have to weigh in with my own reiatsu.
In character, Kokuraimaru is kind and strong-willed, but is sometimes easily angered. When we get into arguments, there are times when he tends to get a little cranky when he is unable to get the last word and/or "win" the argument. He also has a very bad habit of coming off as arrogant without meaning to, oftentimes. Kokuraiko is the same in personality as Kokuraimaru.
When we spar, he takes the form of a man wielding his Shikai sword. When I visit the inner world in Bankai, there is a noticeable change in the inner world to represent that: the complete lack of black thunderstorms due to the fact that, in Bankai, he is permanently in his "human" form, as a master swordsman Spirit that is 6ft in height, has almost no weight due to being lightning, and blue eyes and blue-black hair that reaches down to his waist, hanging loose (untied).
In his "human" form, he is dressed in a samurai get-up that is enough of a darker blue that it looks almost black, except he is barefoot. He wields the same sword I have in Bankai. The belt on the outfit is black, with the kanji for "black" on the left strap of the belt tie and the kanji for "lightning" on the right one. Kokuraimaru is ancient himself, but his "human" form looks to still be in his 20s, and is also seemingly lean and well-built. On his back, with their top sides facing forward, are three black drums with three tomoe on each of them. There are no drumsticks to go with the drums, but they are not needed as Kokuraimaru is able to beat on them with just the force of his reiatsu alone (is translated into Bankai as well; it's not that I do this with my own reiatsu, it's still Kokuraimaru (no Kenshi) himself who does). When Kokuraimaru is in this form, Kokuraiko likes to sit either on his head or on his right shoulder.
Sealed Form: A daicho (Japanese long sword). The hilt of the sword is dark blue, 5 inches long with a black ray-skin under the hilt-wrapping. The cross-guard is circular, with a picture of multiple lightning bolts engraved into it. The blade of the sword is 8 inches long, coming out of a black collar. In the middle of the blade are inscribed two symbols; one being that of Raijū's face, and the other being that of three tomoe. The sheath is dark blue, with the kanji for "lightning" printed on the up-facing part in black color. For a reason that was unknown until Shikai, the sword doesn't seem to have much of a weight at all, and seems to require multiple slashes made at high-speed, as it doesn't have enough cutting power to deal a decisive blow in one slash.
Shikai:
Spoiler:
Release Command Hikare to Shūgeki! Kokuraimaru! [光れと襲撃! 黒雷丸! (Flash and Strike! Dark Lightning!)]
Release Animation: I hold the sword in a guard stance and call out its Release Command and name. There is a loud thunder clap that can be heard, along with a flash of lightning coming from the sword, and in the next instant, the onlooker can see the following changes:
Appearance of Shikai:
Spoiler:
Same daicho as the Sealed state, except with a 1 and a half inch longer dark blue blade coming out of a black collar, with the hilt also being one inch longer. The blade is made of electrically charged reishi that is in the form of a highly conductive metal, tampered to be extremely light (lighter than it was in Sealed State).
As the blade in Sealed State was being covered by an insulated material, the true nature of the blade was hidden and its weight was slightly increased. The Shikai sword still requires the wielder to execute multiple slashes done at high-speeds, as even though it is sharp enough to cut, it is still weaker in power than other swords but can allow for multiple slashes done at high-speeds, the damage of which accumulates to deal high amounts of cutting damage from the blade.
Abilities of Shikai:
Spoiler:
This Zanpakutō has the power to control lightning, electricity and thunder (can create thunder as well). Whenever thunder is created, the tomoe and Raijū face symbols on the blade start to glow with a light that is a slightly lighter blue than the blade itself. When already existing thunder is controlled, only the face of the Raijū glows. The Raijū's face also glows whenever Kokuraiko is helping with the abilities to make them powerful or effective (depends on the nature of the ability).
As long as there are still protons and electrons in the surroundings within a radius of 2-3 inches from both me and the sword, the electricity on the blade will (almost) never run out.
Due to the make-up of the blade, when it cuts the opponent, it also delivers a ticklish-type shock.
Ability 1: Kokuraigeki [黒雷打] (Black Lightning Strike): When I want to use this ability, I have the electricity on the blade produce a strong static charge that is discharged as lightning from the tip of the blade. The power and amount of electricity on the blade, when using this technique, can be controlled at will, so that the lightning produced can be controlled.
Immediately after having used this attack, some of the strong electric charge will be left on the blade, and before it runs out (in 3-4 seconds' time), I'm able to use that to deal a bit more of a zapping effect than normal through my melee attack(s).
Ability 2 (Passive): Raipo [雷歩] (Lightning Step): This is an ability that I have due to the light weight of the sword, as well as the focus in high-speed melee attacks. I can't use Shunpo in conjunction with this. This is a variation of Shunpo that increases my running speed by that of lightning. In Shikai, I get a speed increase of half the speed of lightning in reality, even though it's called "speed of lightning".
Ability 3 (Active): Raiken [雷剣] (Lightning Sword): Whenever there is a thunderstorm occurring near me, and I'm close enough, I can take control over some of the thunder and lightning within it. I have my sword conduct the electricity from the lightning to strike at my opponent(s) with it from the sword, or have it strike them from where it already was to begin with. I can only do this to affect thunder and lightning within a 2 and half mile radius distance of me and my sword.
Bankai:
Spoiler:
Name of Bankai: Kokuraimaru no Kenshi [黒雷丸 の 剣士 (Dark Lightning the Master Swordsman)]
Release Animation for Bankai: I hold my sword with one hand, pointed towards my opponent(s), and call out the words, "Ban Kai!" An almost deafening thunder clap is heard, and both my sword and I release a powerful torrent of reiatsu that looks like black lightning with a dark blue outline. When the lightning fades and my form is once again clearly visible, the appearance of my Bankai is seen. . . .
Appearance of Bankai:
Spoiler:
In Bankai, the Zanpakutō splits into four parts; two gloves that reach up to right below the elbows and two unarmored boots that reach up to right below the knees. The gloves and shoes are both dark blue, and are made of the same electrically charged reishi as the Shikai blade; they are further tampered with than the sword's blade so that they are flexible enough for me to have full freedom and ease of movement in the parts of my limbs that the pieces of tampered metal are on. The Bankai also gives me a shirt and belt that are similar to the ones the Spirit wears in Bankai form. The same sword from the Shikai is also present, though the power and amount of control I have is greater/augmented (explained in detail a bit later). On the arm parts of the gloves are the same tomoe symbols as the blade; the inscription of the Raijū is now complete, showing a mini picture of a whole Raijū.
On my back appear the same three drums from the Spirit description, facing forward so that the three tomoe that are on the top of each of the drums show.
In Bankai, the dark blue outline looks almost pure black. This carries on to the shoes and gloves, making them also appear to be almost pure black, and the blade is also the same color due to being practically made of the same black lightning.
Abilities of Bankai:
Spoiler:
The same abilities from the Shikai are carried over and powered up 5x. In Bankai, the electricity on my Zanpakutō can regenerate as long as there are still protons and electrons present in the surroundings within a radius of 5 inches around both me and my sword.
The gloves and boots, as well as the sword in Bankai, work pretty much the same as the Shikai sword on how to use the lightning attacks. The power and amount of electricity on the surface of the gloves and boots/shoes, as well as on the sword can now always be controlled at will at all times, and the potential voltage and the maximum power and amount of current is 5x greater when compared to Shikai.
The range of the "Raiken" technique's influence is increased in Bankai; it is now possible to control all of the thunder and lightning within any given naturally occurring thunderstorm.
The attacks I can use with this Bankai are possible with either my blade, my hand(s), and/or my foot/feet. I can use either of those at any given time for any of my electrical or lightning type attacks.
The "Raipo" ability is now able to literally increase my running speed that I augment with my reiatsu by that of lightning. It is still impossible to use Shunpo with Raipo.
The tomoe and Raijū inscriptions act up the same way, as well as on the same occasions, as in Shikai. Kokuraiko's help in making the abilities more efficient/powerful is also a greater.
This Bankai has two additional attacks; Attack 1: Kokuraigeki Jitai no Ni: Kuroi Arashi [黒雷打 代表 の 二: 黒嵐] (Black Lightning Strike Type 2: Black Storm): Basically, I turn existing clouds into cumulonimbus clouds through static energy build-up, then use my own spiritual energy to take control of the thunder and lightning. Thunderstorms created through this technique spread over a 6.5 mile radius around both me and the opponent in all directions (gets bigger as needed when fighting multiple opponents).
Attack 2: Kokuseiryokuhō [黒勢砲] (Dark Energy Cannon): This attack takes all of the electrons from either the sword or one of the gloves, compresses and condenses them, and then fires them at the opponent. Takes a few minutes to maybe a half an hour to regenerate all of the lost electricity.
1. When Sasuke, Sakura and Fish Paste tried to see his face, the whole episode was hilarious. Those imagination went wild as f***.
2. Training with Naruto and loses after his Sharingan reads his lips. Also funny moment.
3. Of course everytime he is late, is a funny moment with Kakashi.

Fighting type: Mid and close range
Unreleased:"Stallion or The Stallion of the Mountains" is a weapon forged in the high mountains of the far western province of ancient Mongolia. In it's sealed state is a traditional music instrument. In its sealed state, it is not capable of engaging in melee combat like others. However it can give a distorting sound to the enemy to quickly pose for battle. The zan is carried on the back of my deel (see Shikai form for the costume) Sealed zan:Spoiler:
Released zan: Spoiler:
Shikai (1) command:"Slay! Seering Stallion" (Kirikorosu, Senken Ateuma!) Shape and form: Ancient war bow & arrow with an everyday life deel. Stallion's first release will be the first in the sub-release as well, starting from this point it beautifully morphs into a bow and arrow. Because it's literally feeding of the reaitsu it's size and other attributes can be modified with ease. A sign of mastering the swordsmanship and marksmanship. Spoiler:
Shikai (2) command:"Attack! Slicing wind of the Stallion" (Utsu, Kaze Suraishingu no Ateuma!) Shape and form: Same as the previous sub-release, other than the weapon morph, nothing else is changed. Spoiler:
Second to the stage, the bow and arrow are now shield and sword. Fighting range decreases but speed doubles as the name suggests, slicing wind, the blade's bended shape is perfect for flash-strikes. During sub-release in shikai, the side-effect of the attack transparency is activated. The reason behind this is, whenever attacking, step by step moves create false image, like a split second clone. It's a both defensive and offensive advantage while in flash-strikes.
The second initial release will be devoted for close range fights. Perfect for force and flexible move orientated strikes. The blade of the sword will be covered in reaitsu flows, which can imitate a saw like movement with high-speed to cut into it's opponent's weapon or body. Same effect for the shield as well, to deflect and decrease the force of a coming attack. Side effect:Once in a while, the slicing strike combined with devilish speed can severely damage the opponent in multiple places. This move is called whip of the black stallion.
Bankai command:"Arise! Black Stallion Horde" (Okoru! Kuro Ateuma!) Bankai form: Spoiler:
Shape and form: Ultimate form of the shinigami prevails as the ban-kai is activated and all hell breaks lose, literally. The shinigami has the stallion as his weapon and faithful horse. Armed with the blade and shield, battle armor is also formed.
Final release will triple the speed of the previous stage and it will be very fast and deadly. All shikai sub-release and abilities can be used in this stage and as bonus, the reiatsu pressure also triples making the opponent slow down, thus making striking more successful (do not forget the whip of the black stallion)
When attacking, the reaitsu flow will be devastatingly large and the sheer pressure will cause the opponent to slow down intensively, rendering him to become earth-bound. Once the opponent's speed and movement decreased, the actual strike will take seconds to form. This attack is called Black Stallion Horde's Wrath (Kuro Ateuma Gekirin!). The warchief (me) unleashes the gates of hell and awakens dead souls (battle fallen ones) from another realm and circles the opponents. They too emit the huge pressure and eventually pins down the prey. Once trapped and nerveless, they strike with full force combined (arrow + blade slice). Attacking:Spoiler:
Bankai passive ability: The reiatsu pressure is also known as Doom. The opponent is encircled by the stallion army (horde) and virtually has no way to escape, hence the name.
Zan spirit: Spoiler:
Long time ago, there was a Warlord in the ancient central Asia lands and he had the most feared army of all, the Black Stallion Horde or the Horde in short. Commanding and general of the horde, he also ruled with an iron fist. Not only being a blood thirsty warrior, he also practiced age old religion and is said to have been gained his montrous strength from the hellbound spirits. To obtain great power and mind, he sacrificed his soul and now the demon resides in him...

...Seriously, how can anyone who reads the manga NOT have read the Kakashi Gaiden?
Anyway, On Topic: I agree with the moments Eechigoo mentioned.

Bankai - Ichigo's Photobucket--click to see it!

Signatures by me, Emperor Tomato Ketchup and SonPan (the YGO 5d's one is from SonPan and the Air Gear ones are my own work; the Natsume Maya Sig (Tenjou Tenge) is also my own work).
Wanna Learn Something? Here are some quotes in the spoiler tag that you guys may want to look at; they're awesome quotes with great descriptions, you might actually learn something!
Spoiler:
"Life is a game; if you don't have the skills, you won't succeed."
--Me.
As Zei's Sig used to say, "The Bankai doesn't make the person, the person makes the Bankai".
"You can't have everything done your way; otherwise, you'll just become arrogant."
--Me. This ties in with the thing about nobles: nobles basically get everything they want, and when they don't get something they wanted, they think things like "How could this have happened?!" or "I'm supposed to be the center of everything; the world revolves around me!" But hey, we know that the world revolves around the sun, so that kind of thinking is just wrong; and that, my friends, is what being arrogant is like. Nobles that are arrogant also tend to think that commoners always mean them harm; either that or they just want to "wound their pride". But of course, there are some nobles that are good hearted and actually care about the part of society that aren't nobles--since this is about the Bleach anime/manga series, I'll use two examples of this type of noble person from the Bleach series: Yoruichi (of course, I mean c'mon! She is a princess, but does she care about rank?! No, she doesn't!) Example 2: Ukitake.
OK, now this one I learned from life: "Life isn't fair; don't fret or worry too much if you don't get a certain thing you wanted, or if something isn't done how you hoped or wanted it to".
"When asking a question, remember what the what the question was to be able to answer it." Means that when you are asking a question, you should always remember what the question was to answer it.
"Looks can be deceiving--don't always go by what you think is the truth based on how things appear (to the eyes)."
"No one is perfect; everyone makes mistakes."
- Of course it's a cliche (spelling?) saying, but it's still a damn good one.
"Don't believe half of what you hear and don't always believe everything you see."
-Another cliche saying, but this one is also a damn good one.
As Notorious Uzimaki quoted Gandhi in the 3rd Division, "Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony". [Uzimaki's explanation of the quote: "too often not the case, rationalizing mis-actions, cognitive dissonance. i always try to remind myself of this quote in difficult situations."

[Avatar: The Last Airbender FC (FC is inactive, and there's no working banner atm, either.]
The Realm of Kokuraimaru is a huge, wide, endless plain covered with countless craters, gashes, and burn-marks, while also being shrouded in darkness, as it is always nighttime there. There is a faint, eerie glow however, due to there being a group of extremely dense storm clouds present in the sky, from which high voltage lightning comes out to scorch the ground. There are also strong and violent gales that constantly blow in this inner world.
The storm clouds almost always have in them thunderstorms that have black lightning with a dark-blue outline. That black lightning within the inner world is itself Kokuraimaru. He is everywhere within this realm, as an almost omnipresent being.
As he is made purely of lightning, he is actually able to take virtually any form he wants (note: this ability does not translate into Shikai or Bankai; it is Kokuraimaru's ability alone). Whenever I go into my inner world outside of Bankai, Kokuraimaru would take his lightning form out of the other places and present most of it in front of me temporarily in the form of free-flowing lightning (for the amount of time that I am in the inner world).
He was not always a Zanpakutō Spirit. Originally, he was Raijin, the Japanese Shinto god of storms, thunder and lightning. He "died" and later reincarnated as my Zanpakutō with some help from Ouetsu (creator of Zanpakutō) in the process of becoming my Zanpakutō, according to what he's told me. He has a companion wolf made of the same dark blue energy as he is, with his body wrapped in lightning. His name is Kokuraiko ([黒雷子] Dark Lightning Child) and he is an incarnation of Raijū, who is said to be a companion of Raijin in Japanese mythology and Shintoism. Whenever black thunderstorms are occurring, he gets agitated and creates trouble within this Realm. Kokuraimaru has to flex his reiatsu to calm him down. Sometimes, when that is not enough, I have to weigh in with my own reiatsu.
In character, Kokuraimaru is kind and strong-willed, but is sometimes easily angered. When we get into arguments, there are times when he tends to get a little cranky when he is unable to get the last word and/or "win" the argument. He also has a very bad habit of coming off as arrogant without meaning to, oftentimes. Kokuraiko is the same in personality as Kokuraimaru.
When we spar, he takes the form of a man wielding his Shikai sword. When I visit the inner world in Bankai, there is a noticeable change in the inner world to represent that: the complete lack of black thunderstorms due to the fact that, in Bankai, he is permanently in his "human" form, as a master swordsman Spirit that is 6ft in height, has almost no weight due to being lightning, and blue eyes and blue-black hair that reaches down to his waist, hanging loose (untied).
In his "human" form, he is dressed in a samurai get-up that is enough of a darker blue that it looks almost black, except he is barefoot. He wields the same sword I have in Bankai. The belt on the outfit is black, with the kanji for "black" on the left strap of the belt tie and the kanji for "lightning" on the right one. Kokuraimaru is ancient himself, but his "human" form looks to still be in his 20s, and is also seemingly lean and well-built. On his back, with their top sides facing forward, are three black drums with three tomoe on each of them. There are no drumsticks to go with the drums, but they are not needed as Kokuraimaru is able to beat on them with just the force of his reiatsu alone (is translated into Bankai as well; it's not that I do this with my own reiatsu, it's still Kokuraimaru (no Kenshi) himself who does). When Kokuraimaru is in this form, Kokuraiko likes to sit either on his head or on his right shoulder.
Sealed Form: A daicho (Japanese long sword). The hilt of the sword is dark blue, 5 inches long with a black ray-skin under the hilt-wrapping. The cross-guard is circular, with a picture of multiple lightning bolts engraved into it. The blade of the sword is 8 inches long, coming out of a black collar. In the middle of the blade are inscribed two symbols; one being that of Raijū's face, and the other being that of three tomoe. The sheath is dark blue, with the kanji for "lightning" printed on the up-facing part in black color. For a reason that was unknown until Shikai, the sword doesn't seem to have much of a weight at all, and seems to require multiple slashes made at high-speed, as it doesn't have enough cutting power to deal a decisive blow in one slash.
Shikai:
Spoiler:
Release Command Hikare to Shūgeki! Kokuraimaru! [光れと襲撃! 黒雷丸! (Flash and Strike! Dark Lightning!)]
Release Animation: I hold the sword in a guard stance and call out its Release Command and name. There is a loud thunder clap that can be heard, along with a flash of lightning coming from the sword, and in the next instant, the onlooker can see the following changes:
Appearance of Shikai:
Spoiler:
Same daicho as the Sealed state, except with a 1 and a half inch longer dark blue blade coming out of a black collar, with the hilt also being one inch longer. The blade is made of electrically charged reishi that is in the form of a highly conductive metal, tampered to be extremely light (lighter than it was in Sealed State).
As the blade in Sealed State was being covered by an insulated material, the true nature of the blade was hidden and its weight was slightly increased. The Shikai sword still requires the wielder to execute multiple slashes done at high-speeds, as even though it is sharp enough to cut, it is still weaker in power than other swords but can allow for multiple slashes done at high-speeds, the damage of which accumulates to deal high amounts of cutting damage from the blade.
Abilities of Shikai:
Spoiler:
This Zanpakutō has the power to control lightning, electricity and thunder (can create thunder as well). Whenever thunder is created, the tomoe and Raijū face symbols on the blade start to glow with a light that is a slightly lighter blue than the blade itself. When already existing thunder is controlled, only the face of the Raijū glows. The Raijū's face also glows whenever Kokuraiko is helping with the abilities to make them powerful or effective (depends on the nature of the ability).
As long as there are still protons and electrons in the surroundings within a radius of 2-3 inches from both me and the sword, the electricity on the blade will (almost) never run out.
Due to the make-up of the blade, when it cuts the opponent, it also delivers a ticklish-type shock.
Ability 1: Kokuraigeki [黒雷打] (Black Lightning Strike): When I want to use this ability, I have the electricity on the blade produce a strong static charge that is discharged as lightning from the tip of the blade. The power and amount of electricity on the blade, when using this technique, can be controlled at will, so that the lightning produced can be controlled.
Immediately after having used this attack, some of the strong electric charge will be left on the blade, and before it runs out (in 3-4 seconds' time), I'm able to use that to deal a bit more of a zapping effect than normal through my melee attack(s).
Ability 2 (Passive): Raipo [雷歩] (Lightning Step): This is an ability that I have due to the light weight of the sword, as well as the focus in high-speed melee attacks. I can't use Shunpo in conjunction with this. This is a variation of Shunpo that increases my running speed by that of lightning. In Shikai, I get a speed increase of half the speed of lightning in reality, even though it's called "speed of lightning".
Ability 3 (Active): Raiken [雷剣] (Lightning Sword): Whenever there is a thunderstorm occurring near me, and I'm close enough, I can take control over some of the thunder and lightning within it. I have my sword conduct the electricity from the lightning to strike at my opponent(s) with it from the sword, or have it strike them from where it already was to begin with. I can only do this to affect thunder and lightning within a 2 and half mile radius distance of me and my sword.
Bankai:
Spoiler:
Name of Bankai: Kokuraimaru no Kenshi [黒雷丸 の 剣士 (Dark Lightning the Master Swordsman)]
Release Animation for Bankai: I hold my sword with one hand, pointed towards my opponent(s), and call out the words, "Ban Kai!" An almost deafening thunder clap is heard, and both my sword and I release a powerful torrent of reiatsu that looks like black lightning with a dark blue outline. When the lightning fades and my form is once again clearly visible, the appearance of my Bankai is seen. . . .
Appearance of Bankai:
Spoiler:
In Bankai, the Zanpakutō splits into four parts; two gloves that reach up to right below the elbows and two unarmored boots that reach up to right below the knees. The gloves and shoes are both dark blue, and are made of the same electrically charged reishi as the Shikai blade; they are further tampered with than the sword's blade so that they are flexible enough for me to have full freedom and ease of movement in the parts of my limbs that the pieces of tampered metal are on. The Bankai also gives me a shirt and belt that are similar to the ones the Spirit wears in Bankai form. The same sword from the Shikai is also present, though the power and amount of control I have is greater/augmented (explained in detail a bit later). On the arm parts of the gloves are the same tomoe symbols as the blade; the inscription of the Raijū is now complete, showing a mini picture of a whole Raijū.
On my back appear the same three drums from the Spirit description, facing forward so that the three tomoe that are on the top of each of the drums show.
In Bankai, the dark blue outline looks almost pure black. This carries on to the shoes and gloves, making them also appear to be almost pure black, and the blade is also the same color due to being practically made of the same black lightning.
Abilities of Bankai:
Spoiler:
The same abilities from the Shikai are carried over and powered up 5x. In Bankai, the electricity on my Zanpakutō can regenerate as long as there are still protons and electrons present in the surroundings within a radius of 5 inches around both me and my sword.
The gloves and boots, as well as the sword in Bankai, work pretty much the same as the Shikai sword on how to use the lightning attacks. The power and amount of electricity on the surface of the gloves and boots/shoes, as well as on the sword can now always be controlled at will at all times, and the potential voltage and the maximum power and amount of current is 5x greater when compared to Shikai.
The range of the "Raiken" technique's influence is increased in Bankai; it is now possible to control all of the thunder and lightning within any given naturally occurring thunderstorm.
The attacks I can use with this Bankai are possible with either my blade, my hand(s), and/or my foot/feet. I can use either of those at any given time for any of my electrical or lightning type attacks.
The "Raipo" ability is now able to literally increase my running speed that I augment with my reiatsu by that of lightning. It is still impossible to use Shunpo with Raipo.
The tomoe and Raijū inscriptions act up the same way, as well as on the same occasions, as in Shikai. Kokuraiko's help in making the abilities more efficient/powerful is also a greater.
This Bankai has two additional attacks; Attack 1: Kokuraigeki Jitai no Ni: Kuroi Arashi [黒雷打 代表 の 二: 黒嵐] (Black Lightning Strike Type 2: Black Storm): Basically, I turn existing clouds into cumulonimbus clouds through static energy build-up, then use my own spiritual energy to take control of the thunder and lightning. Thunderstorms created through this technique spread over a 6.5 mile radius around both me and the opponent in all directions (gets bigger as needed when fighting multiple opponents).
Attack 2: Kokuseiryokuhō [黒勢砲] (Dark Energy Cannon): This attack takes all of the electrons from either the sword or one of the gloves, compresses and condenses them, and then fires them at the opponent. Takes a few minutes to maybe a half an hour to regenerate all of the lost electricity.
