Shikai discussion

[Seiichiro]

Okay, now that shikai has been implemented i figured we could use a topic wherein we can discuss anything shikai- related. For starters, here are a few questions for those who´ve allready obtained shikai:

What kinds of shikai are there so far (Neji mentioned that you get a type chosen for you when you obtain shikai, but he didn´t mention how many types there are or what they do.)

How do you like the type of shikai assigned to you, and what kind of shikai you hope you´ll be able to choose one this feature gets added ?

And of course, what´s the name of your Zanpakutou ?

[caquricon]

Well technically Shikai is not implemented since Neji is still working on the release.

But I'm guessing the type is the element you get, and it won't be doing anything as of yet.

[Taumaster]

I believe Neji said it will be random.

[Neji]

Example:

As you are about to call Sakura as you also realize the form andy type of your Zanpakutō...

You have a Shikai formed like a Sai whereas the type is : Power (Melee)...

[Dasher]

yea i got a fire katana that fits the name pretty good
i wounder if there will be like another type of weapon for bankai?
I mean bankai's usually pretty messed up
Like how would you call Abarame's bankai it is like 3-4 huge weapons ?!
Anyhow we are pretty far away from bankai anyway.....

[Neji]

The form already refers only to the before-shikai form - shikai alters it already up to some point.

bankai is more like a technique.
