This is a question for all of you old bleach heads......here's my theory on Zarkai what if Yachuri is actully his sword as in remember the whole sword fiends arc....he found her in the streets as a baby before he became part of the gotei 13 and brought her with him. He has never known the name of his sword becauseit is always realsed in shikai and u notice she is always at his fights watching. the name yachuri is part of the kenpachi name so being that she didn't have a name like his sword he gave her that name.....so his sword would always be in a released state since she is with him and she is also very strong and feared by squad 11.....
its a wild theory i know but in my mind it makes sense
That's plausible. I swore there were a couple of encounters Ichigo had with Yachuri without Zaraki around. Gonna have to research that one.
I think he doesn't know his sword's name because subconsciously he doesn't really want to know
Zaraki has PTSD. Interesting...
