Opinions?

The largest attack in Bleach < Superman's hits. He's capable of lifting entire fortresses and tossing parts of the moon around. I'd say the only thing really on the DC scale in Bleach is a Cero, but no one's taken one of those absolutely effortlessly- not even an Espada Member. Speed's a non issue as well- I would say that, at best, Shunpo is lightspeed. Superman SOMEHOW manages to surpass that in precrisis mode, and even Post-crisis Supes is capable of traveling at that speed (if he's not holding back for the sake of the planet). If Kyouka Suigetsu works, then I could see a possible tie- there's no way to get through it short of not looking at his sword, but even if it works, nothing would tip the battle in favor of Aizen anymore- he can make himself illusory to dodge attacks, but he can't win.

I think this match is WAY uneven. Any reason why you want Aizen to die, Akuki?

I agree Kyouka would work on Superman, but if PiS and CiS or off, then Aizen reaching for his sword would get a punch to the face. If it's on, then Aizen has a MAJOR flaw in his confidence. He'd likely slowly draw his sword mockingly, and Superman would go in for the kill at a more relaxed pace, and probably wouldn't focus on the sword so much. In the second scenario, Superman may get hit with Kyouka, I can see that. So I'll go with PiS and CiS on. I can see Aizen using illusions and fooling Supes, but I just have to wonder... When did Aizen gain the ability to removes souls from their bodies?! Urahara and Rukia used special items- of which Aizen wasn't shown to have at all, much less carry on him everywhere- and Ichigo has the Shinigami insignia. Attacking his Soul is a way that Aizen can win, but he just doesn't have the equipment to do it on his form, from what we've seen.

Note: The technique he used to withdraw Hougyoku was NOT Soul Ejection- it was an ability which allowed him to withdraw an item from a person who was already in a spiritual state/ghost form.


Superman's not so much weak to magic, it's just that it gets past his biofield. It still has to be incredibly potent and powerful to harm him, and the most we've seen anyone in Bleach do with Kido is destroy buildings. While impressive, DC magic users of at least of that par. I don't read Superman much at all, but from what I recall in the Goku vs. Supes thread, he took a blow from a super powerful wizard without getting hurt. I think the blow actually knocked him into the center of the Earth, or something as well. And even if Superman can't perceive Aizen, he can figure out he's being fooled. He's probably even smart enough to realize the sword did it (not like that'll help, but hey) and then he can start moving super fast hitting everything in an appropriate space, or just try and keep moving to dodge attacks.

EDIT: It's Advesary that I'm thinking about. He punched Superman clear to China and Supes was alright. Then Superman takes an island destroying beam. He's very briefly KO'd, but considering the difference between building busting and island busting is huge, and the amount of damage he took.... Aizen's going to be pounding for weaks with his strongest spells.

I think that Superman would probably let his own confidence get the better of him, and he probably would fall under Aizen's hypnosis, but Unohana was able to figure out she was being tricked with Aizen's ability. She didn't know how, but she knew there was something going on. Superman would definitely be able to figure that out, because Aizen's got overwhelming confidence when he believes a plan has gone off without a hitch. He'll likely keep toying with Superman instead of going for the kill, allowing Supes to better grasp his situation.

The Ginkogan Soul Ejection pills are the only thing I would see as standard, but not even Aizen's Shikai would allow him to slip Superman a pill. And I would think leaving the battlefield would count as a lost. Otherwise, Superman could leave once he realizes he's being fooled and try for centuries to figure out what's going on. Not only would he never figure out the trick, he'd have lost. But if leaving doesn't count as a loss, then Supes can do just that. Aizen has no way of keeping up with Superman once Supes ascends high enough- Space wouldn't be a soul's best friend, there would probably be even less Reiki up there than oxygen. Not to mention the speed issue.

My take on this fight has changed, but I still don't see Aizen winning. As soon as Supes figures out he's being tricked, he'll just use attacks that hit everywhere, like running around super fast to create a tornado or something. Crude, but effective! xd

How would he know where to look for him? And Supes wouldn't neccesarily go to the places Aizen knows about. If he thinks he's being fooled, he wouldn't neccesarily even go to Metropolis. He might go to Batman's place, or something.

Aizen can't even research Superman in any reasonable sense to know where he lives and all that. He didn't KNOW about Ichigo, he just knew Urahara would send someone into Soul Society to get back Rukia. Urahara was known by EVERYONE of Soul Society, his latest actions weren't known very well, but then, who the heck cared about an outlawed Shinigami aside from Aizen? Even if Aizen did research Superman, he couldn't do it mid battle because we don't know if his illusions can be controlled well from afar (he's constantly having to shape and reshape them, as is evident from fights like the one with Hitsugaya) so it would count as prep. time. In which case Supes would get applicable prep time, and he has a far greater extension of allies than Aizen can hope to have, and he would simply be searching the afterlife as well, while Aizen has to search everywhere in the known Universe for locales Superman can run off too.

I think Unohana said she recognized immediately something was wrong, but either way, I don't think it was because he tried to make a corpse. Keep in mind, before Aizen shifted his plan into action, he never said he had used ANY illusions. After he shifted his plans is when he used illusions, and in the midst of battle against a MUCH weaker opponent, like Komomaru, he made it seem like he'd disappeared when his clone was hit, but was actually standing elsewhere to begin with. Superman wouldn't turn a blind eye to something like this, and if Aizen's in character, he'd most definitely taunt someone who had been caught in his trap.


He does have a water Shikai, but that kind of trick would only pertain to the Gotei 13, because they're the only ones that know about Shikai and Shinigami abilities. He might give himself some extra strength or durability, but that's probably it. And as Superman pounds away at the fake Aizen, thinking he's real, he'll eventually hit too hard for Aizen's stepped up abilities to anticipate, forcing Aizen to craft another illusion, meaning Supes will get the idea he's using illusions. Also, on not doing something complicated, the human body is ALWAYS complicated. Superman can X-ray into the fake's brain and see no brain activity- he can listen for a heartbeat, and hear none. All sorts of things that would clue him in on Aizen and his abilities once it seems like he's getting no where.


Actually, Reiatsu doesn't appear to pin only souls UNLESS the soul is outside the body. Tatsuki wasn't instantly crushed like a can when coming against Yami, for instance.


Not that I recall. Actually, Rukia had to pick up the Ginkogan pills and glove from Urahara.


A single punch probably WOULD do it in for Aizen, and if not, Superman would then feel he's hitting Aizen his super brain would then allow him to calculate trajectory and then keep up with Aizen from there. The Menos' beam = Outisde help. Though Superman could likely just break it (it says it fuels the power of a Cero into a shield, and the power of cero = atomic laser, which Superman has smacked away on more than one occasion)


Tracing targets is really difficult when they have super low Reiatsu, and the difficulty increases the more distance there is. Chances are that if Supes ascended into space, Aizen couldn't follow anyway.

Actually that is a false statement, rarely will Superman go into a fight with out the advantage. He is smart not dumb. In a lot of his fights he goes straight to the punch and at superspeed. He only controls his attacks when he knows they will seriously injure or maim/kill his opponents.
You have to take into effect that in a VS match he will fight using his top performance.


You also seem to forget that Superman can move at faster than light speed. I've seen enough of BLEACH to know that there is not anything that fights at that speed.


Can he stand up to an attack by Superman at Superspeed to be able to use it?


Superman has gotten out of Similer Traps. The issue For the man who has everything. rings a bell.


Again he has delt with this on multiple occasions.


Again for this to work we have to assume that he gets the first attack off and I don't think this as easy as it seems.

Can it work? Yes it can.
Will it be as easy as you guys make it? I don't think so, if you dumb Superman down as bad as you have then yes.

Yeah, Aizen's definitely got some odds, but he's going to have to have everything go perfectly, including his selection of equipment for the mission of taking Superman on. Nice debating with you again, Akuki! 3nodding It's been so long since the Ichigo vs. Naruto thread!

...you bring shame to the Vs guild...
