Prologue
These are the reviews and responses for The Prologue: A Different Fate

Guest #1: So can we suppose that Aizen has a way to observe Ichigo because in canon, he's not bothered by Ichigo beating or killing the Espadas. In fact, it's part of his experiments and while Ichigo by being a human/hollow/quincy/shinigami hybrib is a interesting research subject for him, Arrancar are just tools.

Answer: No, this universe is AU from the canon universe of Bleach, after all Ichigo is no longer on Earth anymore. Aizen also likely doesn't have any device capable of traversing space to actually monitor Ichigo. Also Aizen may see Ichigo as a interesting subject, even Aizen himself doesn't realize that Ichigo is a sort of Anti-thesis to himself.

Meech Macko: The new SOPA act is getting a bit bold with their new setup and now with even more crazier laws. I thought SOPA failed last time...but I guess its back...my guess is that it would fail coz its got even more confounding rules that's just too ridiculous to even consider.

Answer: Sadly I leaned recently that the Act was a fake, but still the signatures came along. It may have been a stupid joke, but it is good to know that we as a community can save this sight if push came to shove.

Earendil18: So Earth and Azeroth aren't not the only worlds inhabited by humans? It opens some doors.

Answer: In this story I haven't really made it known that there are more humans across the different worlds. But in United I do explore that scenario and try t create a connection between the origins of all humans.

Guest #1: Ironic advice from someone holding Ichigo's power back.

Answer: He isn't so much holding it back, but actually keeping his true Zanpakuto suppressed so that Ichigo can rely on him rather that the true Zangetsu. After all his being is to make sure he doesn't become a Shinigami as they are sword enemies of Quincy, the Ywach Zangetsu likely wanted him to be a Quincy to protect him from Ywach when the war began.

Chapter 07
These are the reviews and responses for Chapter 07: Departure

Earendil18: About timeline, will a too long absence from Ichigo on Earth affect more that Earth/Soul Society/Hueco Mundo fate? Based on the fact that the existence of humanity on several planets implies a link between them, some menaces from Bleach could expand to the rest of the Universe. First idea, an successful Aizen (who may then on Elune or Old God level ) may turn his attention on the rest of the cosmos after few centuries. Or more probably, a particular Emperor and his empire of shadows might to some point migrate from an Earth with her different realms collapsing into each other to other humans inhabited worlds to prey upon because of his hunger for wars and souls. Becoming a scourge for the Universe similar to the Burning Legion.

Answer: Yes, Ichigo was an instrumental character in the fate of his world, you can imagine what the consequences of his absence during certain events such as not fighting against Ulquoirra in Los Noche. Or when he goes to Fake Kararura Town that eventually leads him to learning the Final Getsuga Tenshou to defeat Aizen. These events would be drastically changed by his absence.

Also sadly this story only focuses on two worlds, Azeroth and Earth, but mostly the former. United deals more along the lines of worlds with humans on them and connected. But basically what you are saying is right about what is going to happen in United with the Scourge of the Universe.

Chapter 08
These are the reviews and responses for Chapter 08: Through the Canyon

Earendil18: So this is after warcraft, so is illidan still alive? what else to ask...

Answer: Yes, exactly four years, maybe a few months.

Mr I hate znt nobles kill em: Can you send a link to that SOPA petition page? Also will he interact with the horde like let's say one of its leaders?

Answer: Sorry, but the Petition was a fake. Also Ichigo will mainly be interacting with Jaina as she is his best bet on getting home.

Shadowthief77: I'm sorry but I think this new version is a lot worse than the previous one. The tone of this story has become completely serious with nothing else mixed in so far. Plus it seems like Ichigo is the only person with a personality while all the other characters act like they have no emotions except the villains who just have anger. Also what's with the dramatic change in how you write Adelina as in this new version?

Answer: That is what it is meant to be from the beginning, this is a serious story. It mainly focuses on Ichigo as he is the main character, but over time the story will shift to other characters and events occurring across the world. Also Adelina didn't seem right, to much of an Orihime Clone and also for someone who is from a race of stoic and prideful monarch race doesn't seem to fit in.

Spartan4: Question about the bronze dragon flight part of the chapter is that the confirmed Warcraft cannon Ichigo is going to be involved in? cause I think it would be awesome if he linked up with Varian and I have to ask it possible to use any of the suggestions I made before the revamp?

"Hi this is spartan4 and I want to talk about what freedom guard said I would like to suggest somehow during the tides of war arc when Jaina is preparing to go down a dark path Ichigo uses his Vasto Lorde form and power on Orgrimmar to show what she thought she was prepared to become by doing what she came to by becoming the monster she thought seemed willing to become by slaughtering Garrosh and orcs in a gory sadistic manner that makes Garrosh shake with terror at this nightmarish monster made reality and the horde and alliance members including Jaina coming to the aftermath of his work not aware he cannot tell friend from foe in his state and starts attacking the nearest person and looking at Jaina telling her he will save her like he did for Orihime in the manga and anime realizing that she would have an existence similar to this and would have little different to the one who destroyed theramore oh and please try to respond this review and answer my question about trying to use this idea

P.S would it be possible for Ichigo to be involved in the WoW timeline and in each arc he makes new friends with each race he meets in the arcs and gets a weapon souvenir of some kind from each arc and will do a lot of good in them and I cannot wait for the reaction between Ichigo and the Pandarian's including the elementals reaction to his presence."

Answer: Ichigo's main involvement in the timeline is undertermines as the Bronze cannot actually see him in the timeline, only his actions after he performs them.

Also Ichigo will have a role in the Tides of War story, he will be there and I will not spoil what he will do. But I can tell you it will reflect on his character well. Also he will be getting new friends all the time as he goes around Azeroth, making allies and enemies and also getting kick ass loot.

Dragonlord1337: Wow I just finished reading the rewrite to your story and I have to say that it is epic man. I am looking forward to seeing how the story changes as it progresses.

Answer: Thanks, I am glad you like the changes I have made.

Guisniperman: I kinda like the new story.

Answer: Glad you like it.

Feara: Definitely a smart move deciding to rewrite the story. Before the story was good, but now it is shaping up to be something great in my opinion. I don't remember if this was in the original but I especially like the idea of incorporating the Bronze Dragonflight into the plot, considering someone from another world appearing would undoubtedly cause some hell. Also great revamp on the character of Adelina! I honestly never really liked her character before, too one-dimensional and helpless. Hopefully this version will be more complex and self sufficient. One more thing, not going to lie, I am a little disappointed in not seeing the attack against Dire Maul yet. I really enjoyed that part of the story previously and I hope this version when we see it is just as good or even better! Good Luck and I hope you are able to write a story you are proud of!

Answer: Glad you like it, I had hoped some people would see the benefit of the change. Also the Bronze was always a major player when it comes to this story.

Also Dire Maul may have not been introduced back, but it does play a role in the story, I simply altered it to improve on the actual flow of the story. Dire Maul will come along, and I promise you, it will be more epic than the previous incarnation of the story.

Impstar: I must say that I like the rewrite a lot more. You definitely have better writing here. However, I'm not sure whether I like Adelina more or less. On the one hand, she's more competent which is nice. On the other hand, she has less personality. I'll have to wait and see. I imagine that Ichigo will end up saving the city again. Well, it's kind of his fault what happened to it initially, but I imagine that in the end he'll prevail.

Answer: I am glad you like it. Also Ichigo will be going to Dire Maul eventually, but for now he has no reason to go there. He doesn't know about Abraxus and he is more concerned with getting back home than going to a city he doesn't need to enter.

Kazaru13: This is really awesome! I love your redo of this story! I loved the old one too, and I hope you keep this going! Will Ichigo be able to use bankai and his mask again in this story? Oh and will he get armor?

Answer: Glad you like it. Yes he will get to use his Bankai and Mask, he just hasn't found a reason to do it yet. Also he will be getting some armour later on in the story.

Meech Macko: Wow...the chaps been redone and changes are good but its strange to see Adelina seems different from original version...Ichigo's heroics were great, I really thought you were going to make him weak for a loooong time, I mean he is a shinigami and as a death god they got to show their kind of power.

Now that Ichigo is traveling with Adelina...they got to have some close moments later on and get closer, it would be dull if there isnt some side romance for the hero. Would love to see some Ichigo x Adelina or even maybe a much later Ichigo x Orihime. I wonder what Adleina's true age is? Ichigo's powers are naturally his own as his father is a pure Shinigami and his mom a high class rare quicny lineage...makes him not really human. Hope to see Ichigo heroic and not too weak and pathetic. Until next update... -Meech

Answer: True Adelina is different, but remember if this was the first time you read this you would have likely not have had this complaint. People are fiddly when something changes, give it some time and you will adapt. Sadly Ichigo moving on from one girl to another seems a little off putting. Maybe just one girl. I will also reveal her age soon. Yes that is true, but since he is bound to a human shell, no different than his human body on earth his powers are effectively diminished. After all what would happen if Ichigo's body was exposed to a powerful spiritual pressure. His body contains that energy, but it is so dense that it can be harmful to him if he exerts himself to much. After all his bones cracked when he first attained Bankai, what would happen when he starts using his Shinigami powers in his human body?

Chapter 09
These are the reviews and responses for Chapter 09: Common Enemy

Mylo Matsuri: at first i was disappointed about this revamp because that made hose 24 chapters i read previously amount to nothing. but not i'm looking forward to the next chapters since i can already see the changes that you've made from the 9 chapters you've posted so far. Its too early for me to decide if these changes are good or not, but i can at least say that they're piquing my interest. i gotta ask though, whether you're going to continue the small romantic thing with Adelina. in the last story, you wrote out those small scenes really well and it would be a shame if that were to disappear.

Answer: I hope that the chapters I have made are enough to satisfy you, I wanted to bring all twenty four into this thing at once but I simply didn't have the time. Don't worry, this version will still have subtle hints of a growing relationship between Ichigo and Adelina.

Blindluck92: That's us alright. Short sighted foolish humans. But people like Ichigo make the universe warm up to us anyway. And this is reminiscent of his scene with Grimmjow or Ulquiorra. He wouldn't fight anything short of perfectly fair, and he didn't even want to kill Grimm. Awesome chapter, and well worth the wait.

Answer: Glad you liked it, also I am trying this version to keep Ichigo on the path he was meant to. He was to OOC in my original version and I did not like that one bit. So this rewrite is meant to fix that.

Chapter 10
These are the reviews and responses for Chapter 10: Shady Rest

Mr I hate znt nobles kill em: I'm hoping for more action to be honest. I'd like to see Ichigo eventually fight someone important in front of a LOT of people.

Answer: Sorry, will try to bring in some more action later on, but personally I am not much of a guy who likes long fight scenes.

Plums: The way you handled the "social etiquette's" was a bit annoying. How many times did Ichigo "shout". Better yet, why does Adelina need to conform to HIS social norms? Why can't Ichigo have an open mind about this and simply ask a question and remain calm when in an uncomfortable situation? Basically, the entire bath scene hopefully was the last vestiges of Ichigo's immaturity falling away, especially with the way he was chastised for HIM yelling in the bath. Anyways... I swore I already read a Adelina / Ichigo storyline shady rest... cept they were dealing with the aftermath. Did you delete a bunch of chapters and start over or something? I swore you were long past this part in the story, and now you're back again... If you did delete and rewrite, would've been nice to see this posted back up to the point you were before... rather than start all the way over from the beginning of this arc again.

Answer: It is quite simple really, because it is Ichigo, he is a modest and sensible guy. Nudity is something he doesn't find wrong, more as he is a gentleman who feels that just leering at a woman like a pervert is wrong. Yes, this is a rewrite after all, but I have posted the other chapters on the wiki.

Mixley: i like it, keep it coming Bro :D

Answer: I will my friend.

Kazaru13: Yay another update! I like this much better than before! Will Ichigo be able to use Bankai in this ever? Anyway good luck on the next chapter!

Answer: Thanks, glad you like it. Also he will eventually use Bankai, just needs a reason to.

Moons: I don't know if I prefer the new Adelina to the old one but you clearly drives Ichigo's powers issues better than in the old version.

Answer: Hopefully you grow to like her later. Also I am glad that I convey the reasons for his power issues across well.

The Aspect: The nerf is a bit unbearable though. Take example of Op character done very well in Wizard Runemaster.

Answer: His Nerf isn't because of some crappy downplay, he is physically limited because of his body. Also he still has most of his powers, the only thing limited is that he is still recovering from massive loss of his spiritual energy. Ichigo is in a human body, basically a shell to contain his souls and because of that his powers are not at their fullest either. Also this isn't a Gigai made by Urahara, it is a body no different than his normal human body. Now think, what kind of stresses that body would sustain if he had his full power blazing? He would likely kill himself simply by using his powers because they have detrimental effects on the person. His bones cracked when he used Bankai, and that was his Shinigami body, what happens when he used his Human body?

G3neSyS: Dammit i really was wondering when you were going to post. Hmm... Well, the bath seen was amusing. Ichigo being the prude he still is ... ( cant wait to see when he starts changing a little XD ). and Adelina just wrecked the hek out of him lol Hope ull update soon.

Answer: Sorry for the delay, been really trying to get the rythme back for writing.

Nick Terakidan: Allright, review time! First: I think that you should give to Ichigo the Hearthsteed (YOUTUBE IT!), second: will you implement the previous ideas that I gave to you before the rewrite?

Answer: Sorry man, can you be more specific on the ideas? Also he will get a mount or two, and that Hearthsteed looks awesome.

Noble1998: joy...i love cliffhangers...

Answer: Not sure if serious... or just bad at sarcasm.

Lazylegionspark: I have reread the entire thing to make sure that I did not miss anything all I will say that I truly enjoyed it. The changes are done very well and with the continuing theme of Ichigo's personality, character, and deteriorating psyche. The updated wiki in both text and pictures are really nice. Looking forward to more of this fiction. Temporal anomalies getting me excited.

Answer: Glad you like it.

Zangetsu: Between having a tradition of public bath as the Romans plus being from a race formerly immortal and still living longer and aging slower (thus having a more progressive and lesser chaotic puberty and a lesser libido that a human (her instincts know that she have lot of time to think about it)), it was to expect that Adelina would less issues to be naked with a male. Still her calm after understanding that she arouses Ichigo let me wonder. Guess she still a odd one.

Answer: Yeah, had to keep the fact she is a little odd.

Ramnaleopard: This is just awesome I can't wait for more. Keep it up!

Answer: Thanks, I will keep this up.

MEleesmasher: I like the promise of this story and where it goes. I wonder if he will gain new abilities and powers later on, because from where I am standing, Ichigo is supposed to be stronger and using at least Bankai. I hate to sound whinny, but Ichigo seems a bit fragile here.

Answer: Ichigo will grow and develop as the story does, he will change as it changes. Also he has no reason to use Bankai at the moment, for what reason would he need to use Bankai. Also Bankai despite being a compression type still needs a lot of power to maintain and control. Since Ichigo is still recovering from his time in the Nether and also since he isn't recovering his reishi quickly that makes it difficult. Also before you ask since he is sleeping and eating, that is only keeping his human body alive. He would need to be in a reshi rich environment to absorb the energies there or eat something that can restore his spiritual energy. So without either he is forced to recover his strength at a very slow pace.

Allofsuck: sooooo many months & d only REWRITE I saw is d dire maul situation. jeez wat a loser. jst except dat ur out of ideas.

Answer: Actually I have improved on the story, you are to short sighted and stupid to wait and see the changes come. But that is expected from an idiot who complains rather than inquires.

Shadowtheif77: Really solid chapter you got here. I'm glad to see the humorous misunderstandings between Adelina and others is continuing in the rewrite from the previous version. Do you still plan on having pairings in this version or has that been scrapped? Though I still miss the previous version I doubt there is some way to convince you to re-post it and continue writing it along with this new version... or is there?

Answer: I will have a parring, but it will be more drawn out and actually develop from a close friendship to something more. Also I have re-posted it onto this site, so go to the main page and you will find it.

JinzoMask656: Ohhh nooo Ichigo got shot by lightning _...anyways great chapter! Please continue the awesome work, I like Adelina's new personality, much better than winy baby one, although I understood why she was like that previously, still like the new one. Can't wait to read more thanks again!

Answer: Glad you like it, always happy to see that my improvements were worth it.

E.A.W.A.F.: This has got to be a joke. I've read through the story that has been posted so far, and in my opinion i think taking that break last year was the worst thing to ever happen to this story. Everything that was built, the characters, the setting, it's all destroyed. A shadow of the story you had before this rewrite. I'm not sure what those reviewers told you or what you saw that i didn't see, but it surly did not need to result in rewriting the story into this. This story, in its current form, reads like a documentary. Its a summery of the events that took place in the longer story before this. Except WITHOUT any meaningful character interaction. I mean I'm the first person to hate on OC's but damn, Adelina has the personality of a rock in this one. The lines she does have come off worse then the Robot Aniken from the clone wars movie. Whole swaths of story arc, changed/removed. Characters gone. I just don't understand this change. There is nothing to get attached to or invested in in the story as a whole. Instead of seeing the ordeal in Dire Maul and having Ichigo and party fight desperately to get through(with fatalities). We get a fricken bronze dragonflight bitch that talks about some bullshit time stuff that does nothing. We get chapters discussing the LORE behind the game lol. Who gives a damn about that man, it is nothing compared to the conversations adelina had in the first version of this story. Just wow man. I've only ever given out a handful of really flame reviews but this one is almost at the top. The way you played with the twisted nether in the beginning is really the only thing i can give a pass on so far in the story. I usually hate oc's, but at least your last versions oc's had personality and background. I actually cared a wee bit about them and enjoyed seeing there interaction with ichigo. There is NO one in this story other then ichigo that has a personality stronger then a wet noodle. What the hell happened man? I find it impossible to believe you forgot how to write characters in such a short period. Sigh. The rant is over. Ill try to keep up with this because this is one of the only WoW/bleach stories worth a damn(or was worth a damn) but man i think this change overall was a huge mistake.

Answer: I took a break to acclimatize myself to my new job. The change was meant to improve the flow of the story. I had no idea what I was doing in the original, I simply made it and faked my way through the story going from one part to the next. No idea where I was going. Also I am still getting into the grove of writing, I am not some great author who makes million dollar stories on a whim. When I have good day I write like a pro, but those days are rare, especially before the rewrite. This rewrite actually has structure that I can build upon and make a story from. You may not like it, I am sorry for that, but until I see that I made a mistake I will not admit this rewrite was one.

Moons: Okay, this version of Adelina for cultural reasons has no issues about sharing a bath sûreté Ichigo and seeing and being seen by him naked. But does having to share a bed with him still embarrass her? And does she still have the sleeping habit which lead Carmen to think that they are lovers.

Answer: Yes, though sharing a bath is a recreational activity, the sharing of the same bed can be considered as a sort of relationship between the two people. Her culture is very unique in its aspects of sex and intimacy. Bathing is seems as recreational and hygienic, not something that can be considered intimate or sexual when shared with others.

Meech Macko: Somehow Ichigo seems to get saved by others, a God himself or rather god potential. but this is somewhat just like the previous version ...I don't know...but Ichigo does appear to be more weaker... Yes, and Adelina's PREVIOUS version personality WAS likable but here something is missing and I mean she seems bland like robotic in character wise...it was OK previous version and I really would love to see some Ichigo x Adelina moments...traveling together WILL naturally make them get attracted, attached and get more closer. Ichigo needs to get his game up not appear weaker getting bashed all the time. I mean he is GOD potential plus its proven in manga he is NOT human. Anyway nice cliffy but it seems both Ichi and Adelina are down for the count... -Meech

Answer: Ichigo has the powers of a god-like being, but since he is bound to a mortal shell he is bound by mortal dangers. A wound can be infected or he can bleed out, he is simply trapped within a mortal shell on the mortal plane. Also their relationship is still developing, but in time it will change they will grow close to one another.

VoiD141: I really don't know what to say... I loved the older version of your story but this one is quite good as well... Its just that I can't tell if it has turned out better or worse. The speed of the story(and your updates for that matter) is quite good but it seems a bit apathetic compared to the older version where the characters were a lot more ... animated I guess. Adelina seems to have been downplayed a lot or maybe you are trying to give her a more wise old druid like character(she feels a lot like Tia Harribel). I think I am just ranting because I lost a well liked story and humans are resistant to change :) Anyways looking forward to the next chapters... keep up the good work.

Answer: Change can make people go either way. I understand that. But I promise that as time goes on you will enjoy this story.

Chapter 11
These are the reviews and responses for Chapter 11: Aftermath

MEleeSmasher: I hope you update soon. Is Ichigo actually gonna learn new skills and powers because I refuse to believe he is just gonna trod along, getting unconscious every first encounter and only doing cool stuff when the last part is coming in. No offense, but I see that pattern here.

Answer: Well, one week and a new chapter is up. Also Ichigo will learn, but for now he is still taking baby steps. Also the reason for his loss of consciousness in the last few confrontations are because of three key factors. The first was sheer exhaustion from spending several days fighting and not being able to rest or recover from his wounds, also he was exposed to Arcane energies as well as Fel magic and had a severe effect on him. Next time he lost consciousness was when he expended his very low spiritual energy supply, that was only just starting to recover. The third is he was struck by lightning, and before you say he should have dodged or survived no problem. There are many factors you need to consider.

First lightning is very powerful and dangerous, the energy it puts out heats up the surrounding air to temperatures equal to that of the sun. Also an average lightning bolt carries a voltage of about one billion and an amperage of about ten thousand to three hundred thousand. Because of the high amperage the energy from the bolt easily passes through objects. The only reason Ichigo survived is because he had enough spiritual energy inside him to negate the amperage in order to prevent the current from passing through his body and killing him. Has that not occurred he would have been speared through and his internal organs would have liquified and then turned to ash. Also dodging a bolt of electricity from ten feet away, also it travels at about 224,000 mph -- or 3,700 miles per second. So ten feet, yeah, you got no hope.

Impstar: You mentioned that you thought your previous Ichigo was too quick to kill? Ichigo is a warrior, he may hesitate to kill in battle but he's hardly going to breakdown about it until afterwards. Even so, rather than uncharacteristic killing I prefer to see it as him adapting to changing circumstances. Hopefully you don't make his aversion to kill TOO aggravating in this version. Looks like Ichigo and Adelina are in danger just like the old version, but this time it seems more along the lines of well-intentioned guards trying to prevent a war more than a conspiracy. Probably.

Answer: Actually it has been shown that Ichigo generally find the act of killing to go against his code. He is unwilling to kill even his enemies, such as Grimmjow, even going so far as to help his defeated opponents. Dordunni is one case, as he helped him right after their fight. Also he showed guilt after being forced to flee and leaving him to die. Him changing his ideal of killing are as likely to happen as you are to stop breathing because you say so. Ichigo is stubborn in his ways, he will not change who he is simply because he is in hostile territory. Hueco Mundo was much more dangerous than Azeroth and yet he maintained the same mentality there, if he is not willing to kill when he storms an enemy fortress filled with much more powerful foes.

What chances are there that he will change just because he is on another planet. He won't stoop so low to kill because it is easier. Also with his resent experience in the Neather, killing the demons there has actually traumatize him. After all in chapter 02 he killed a Succubus in a very bloody fashion and was immediately horrified with what he did.

Reality Varient: interesting...it wont end well i suspect.

Answer: Nope, also I like your Familiar of Zero and Warcraft story, please continue it. Your writing is pretty good and I would love to see a second chapter.

Earendil18: Will Chromie find Zangetsu? Or will Ichigo retrieve him? Then the Bronze dragonflight or the Infinite dragonflight is the group or part of the group which bring Ichigo on Azeroth. How and when did/will they learn Ichigo's existence? Maybe in the main timeline, he died in the Nether or elsewhere leading to the "Scourge of the Universe" to exist in this story not just in United against the Legion and destroy Azeroth? After all, the shield implies that this not just for the luz and neither a bronze or a infinite dragon would want the Legion to conquer Azeroth.

Answer: My my, you seem to be deducing this quite well, we can talk about this later on over a private channel. I can answer some of your questions and clarify a few thing for you.

Blindluck92: The plot thickens. Conspiracy of this sort is always fun. Can't wait for more, and I'm sorry I couldn't help in time.

Answer: Glad your liking it, I plan to make this conspiracy one that will be remembered. No matter how convoluted it may be. Also no problem, I really didn't give you a lot of time.

Zirkan Krais: I hope that Ichigo is imprisoned and questioned (perhaps under torture) while his sword is taken and given to a more deserving warrior. It'd be amusing, to say the least.

Answer: Dude, that is dark, truly truly dark.

Zirkan Krais Reply: Meh. Way too easy, seriously. They have a veritable weapon here. If they can but control him and make him fight for their cause only...

Answer: Dude, you seriously have some twisted thoughts going through your mind, I could you someone like you. How would you like to help me on occassion with certain characters that downright diabolical and twisted to the very core of their being?

Krazyfanfiction1: AMAZING chapter as always. This is your story, so you should be able to change it if you want. Anyway, keep up the good work as usual.

Answer: Thank you, you are to kind. I also understand why some are angry over the rewrite so I cannot blame them for being angry and disappointed.

Ranmaleopard: Awesome keep it up. What will Ichigo's hollow and Zangetsu say about him letting his guard down?

Answer: Maybe something like: Zangetsu: 'Again you prove your weakness, easily distracted and caught off guard, are you a warrior who remains focused on the goal or are you a simple child dazzled by brilliant light?' Hollow Ichigo: 'HAHAHAHAHAHA You fucking idiot! You got hit by lightning and you saw it coming! HAHAHAHA'. Yep, sounds about right.

Telron: Poor ichigo and Adelina. I look forward to the coming chaos now.

Answer: Well enjoy the chaos.

Chapter 12: The Conspiracy
MEleeSmasher: I swear, it always with Ichigo getting the short end of the stick.

Answer: Not true, sometimes its other people who get it, Ichigo just has a run of bad luck.

Minaly22: Both versions have their own charm, personally I preferred the older versions. But these are good too.

Answer: Sorry to say that the older version is not going to continue, but I promise this one will improve over the original.

Arrankor: Enjoyed this chapter. I'm kind of hoping once you reach a point in the story that does not overlap with the events of your last version you can slow down a bit and focus awhile on character interaction.

Answer: Don't worry, there will be chapters where there is dedicated character interation and involvement. I wouldn't make it just action, that gets boring after a lot of repitition.

Earendil18: In this chapter, happened what will be Ichigo's greater secret: that he's still alive because of Isshin's antics. And now who will win the race to Zangetsu, Ichigo, Chromie or the conspirationnists?

Answer: Pretty much, but he will never admit it, never. Stay tuned to find out.

Reality Diviant: good to have this update...

Answer: Glad you like the story, welcome to the band wagon.

Plums: Honestly... Reading this a second time now with your rewrite, I just want this arc over with. Reading the Theramore conspiracy for a second time just isn't that interesting.

Answer: Sorry for being an inconvenience, but this has to be done. Don't worry it will be over soon enough and new content will be introduced.

Krazyfanfiction1: AMAZING chapter as always. well worth the wait. keep up the good work as usual.

Answer: I will.

Noble1998: You know... a Shiniagmi's zanpakuto is literally part of their soul and he has used it for a very long time, so one would think that Ichigo would have noticed Zangetsu missing by now, even if he was worried by recent events and for Adelina, so why hasn't he? Also I'm not trying to sound like I'm ripping into you or anything, just saying.

Answer: True he should have noticed it was missing but he simply was so confused that he didn't realise until after everything calmed down that it was gone.

Meech Macho: Thing are heating up and I see that you are trying to NOT make Adelina into too much like a total ditz and making her a bit more sharper...but I still liked the previous Adelina when she had a crush on Ichigo and was a bit more lively and less robotic. Ichigo has not gotten back his SOUL CUTTER or sword back and its still in the demolished Shady rest inn. Till next update...

Answer: Yeah, the original her wasn't very Nigh Elvish, she wouldn't have been raised as a ditz. She would have been trained to survive and her excentricities came from another event in her life. Also I am trying to change her character a bit, there is a reaon she seems so lifeless and distant. In time you will understand.

JinzoMask656: oh nice, although this is a rewrite it feels really close to what you had before. But i understand the finer points, about how Adelina shouldn't have been able to carry Ichigo's sword along with him. Anyways can't wait to read more, thanks again for the reads!

Answer: Glad you like it, I know that in the original there were many things that when I look back I find that they were simply done wrong. So I changed them around and fixed them up and tried to stick to the original as much as possible but also bring in new and more beleivable elements.

Enigma95: hmmm i wonder why did u delete the other chapters?

Answer: I didn't delete them, they are on the wiki as we speak, check them out. Also I did it mainly to improve on the original story.

Ramnaleopard: Awesome keep it up!

Answer: I will.

Knives91: Ah, silly, silly guards. They outnumber him, outgun him, and are in a better positions. And it would do them absolutely no good if Ichigo decided that they had to go. Luckily for them, he is a kind and forgiving overlord. They get one free pass. If they persist, well, Soul Society did have to replace a few buildings after the last time he got pissed. A solid chapter! Please continue your efforts!

Answer: Glad you like it, and you are right, Ichigo is a forgiving overlord. Mwahahaha!

Chapter 13
Ramnaleopard: Shouldn't Ichigo be able to summon Zangetsu no matter where he is?

Answer: No, the swords do not work like that, they are just as physical manifestations as those who wield them. After all if a Shinigami could summon their Zanpakuto with their minds then Shinigami contained in the Nest of Maggots or in the Tower of Penence could easily get their Soul Cutters back.

Chapter 14
Ramnaleopard: Awesome keep it up I can't wait for Ichigo to learn that Chromie just tried to get rid of Zangetsu.

Answer: She didn't try to get rid of it, but simply examine it as she did not originally see the blade in the timeline.

Chapter 15
Krazyfanfiction1: 3 chapters in one day? Wow...amazing chapters as always. Well worth the wait. Keep up the good work as always.

Answer: Glad you like it, it was a good few weeks for me and I decided to get them all to you in one hit.

MEleeSmasher: I feel rather sad knowing how gullible and naive Ichigo is. So, when does he get stronger?

Answer: Ichigo can be manipulated at times, but he is far from easily misled, it is simply because he is not in the right state of mind to think clearly. He had been through a lot of bad shit lately. Also He will be getting stronger in time, he still needs to recover his spiritual power and also overcome his trauma to fully utilize his potential.

Takagi Arin: Thanks for the 3 updates.. can we make it 4? I cant wait to see what happens whe ichigo finds Zangetsu..

Answer: Will try to, but can't make any promises.

Reality Diviant: Good to have this update (multiple updates are even batter). Cant wait for next part. Seeing others response to ichigo cutting loose will be most interesting.

Answer: Glad your happy. Hope you like what comes next.

DD: Here's another chapter with Ichigo being a total bitch.

Answer: Great! It will match up to what you are so well!

Impstar: Ichigo is beginning to annoy me... his moral code is admirable, but it's preventing him from adapting to his new situation. The most admirable trait of humanity in my mind is the ability to adapt in order to overcome adversity. He can't, or rather won't. Would it make him feel better to know that the people he doesn't kill will be killed by one of his allies? Does it somehow ease his conscience that because "he" didn't kill them, it's okay? And geez; he's not an actual God, he can't protect everyone. It was a little embarrassing to be taken out that easily, but with the way the attack was, all he would have accomplished is REALLY getting killed. He needs to learn that being a protector doesn't mean not killing anyone; sometimes the only way to protect the innocent is to slay the guilty, or else they'll just keep killing.

Answer: He is very stubborn in his ways. He won't simply change his ways because it would be easier, you have seen it many times before. He doesn't kill people, it isn't in his nature to take a life. Even his enemies. Grimmjow and many others he had faced he had never delivered the killing blow, even though he knows that they would threaten him and his friends if he let them live. He knows this but despite it he doesn't kill then. He even saves some when they are in mortal danger. Hell even in the latest issues he tried to warn Candice Catnipp to watch out for his attack because it would have likely killed her. That is your answer, he doesn't change because the circumstances change, he keeps himself who he is.

Dalulzing: You should always face your own failure. Running from it only postpones the inevitable.

Answer: That is true, but Ichigo is someone who had yet to find the strength to confront it. He has always been very hard on himself for his failures and this is likely his biggest mistake. So him not wanting to face it is more than understandable.

TeninTwang: You should at least read over your chapters aloud to spot the myriad of small errors that add up. Also, one niggle. You had Adelina describe her Nightsaber as a panther. Irrespective of whether the even are panthers on Azeroth (I can't remember if that's what they were called, the STV cats), she has little reason to expect him to know what a 'panther' is either. Should probably go with something like 'they are large, feline predators'.

Answer: I have a Beta-reader who helps me. There are Panthers on Azeroth, Night Elves ride them all the time. Also how could someone not know what a panther is, also this can be taken down as to how the tranlation spell works, as it may find the most appropriate word within Ichigo's own dialect and allows him to understand fully what she is describing. Also you could say what is Feline with your explanation as he may not be familiar with that certain descriptive term.

Enigma95: dun dun dun! well this is differnt them knowing well better so far nc looking forward for more then

Answer: Glad you like it.

Terror of Death Skieth: Great chapter, keep it up

Answer: It is good to hear such praise from one of the Eight Phases of The Wave. Thank you.

Random Gypsy Cat: I can't wait for the next chapter! Ichigo might get Zangetsu back!

Answer: Stay tuned and find out.

Guest: I'm going to be blunt. All of this angst is unnecessary and it's not the way Ichigo reacts. He did mope around a bit when his mom died, but then he took karate more seriously. After that he matured and didn't get like that anymore. When the rest of his family is nearly killed by a hollow he got stronger and fought back. This is the pattern he follows even when Yami (I think that's his name) sucks out the souls of dozens of people. It holds true even after he lost his powers. He moved on and got a new job, though he did jump at the chance to get his powers back.

Answer: Well considering how the story has gone so far, I would expect this is how Ichigo would react. Also this isn't one person he cares for dying, this is eighty people dead because he couldnt stop it. That would haunt a person seriously, also he is still suffering from the trauma of going through the Nether, that place did things to him that chipped away at his sanity. Also he wasn't personally there to stop Yammy Llargo, but this time he was, and he failed. How do you think that weighs on him. How would he feel to be personally responsible for the deaths of eighty people.

Meech Macko: Nice plot style... Strange seeing Adelina being the mature and experienced one. But I guess it come with her true age. The longer she stays close with Ichigo the more attraction grows, she would slowly start to fall for the strange human. But I must say Ichigo has to face the ordeal head on, not stay back and cover behind, that was not his way, he trudges forward and if he did not learn now, he would find it difficult later on. he should have gone to the inn again and face his demons... He shouldn't get dictated by what others say. Adelina IS TREATING him like a child, like he some complete novice. The guy is a man of honor and raised in such a manner by his father too, who too has been a shinigami, a captain and one who commanded the 10th division. Hoping Ichigo does not resort to killing but only kill when all options are exhausted only. Killing is not in his character profile and he is not human either but a demi god of sorts. And now his sword get stolen again.

Answer: Adelina is trained and skilled in many areas and also she knows what Ichigo is feeling. You are right about Ichigo needing to face this, but as he is now if he did he would fall into a depression cycle. Also she isn't treating him like a child, she is keeping him from breaking down from the horror. Stuff like this can leave people broken, survivors guilt doesn't go away over night.

BukkakenoJutsu: fun so far.

Answer: Glad you like it.

Chapter 16
Saddas74: Enjoying, this rewrite very much. Ichigo went full savage hollow mode on the traitors. But can't blame him, especially seeing what happened to Lynn and how James watched it, certainly brought his worst nightmare back again. Loved the action, fits hollow Ichigo's instincts and the beast like savageness in the fight was epic. I hope Ichigo learns to kill when needed, this is something i wish he would learn in canon as well.

Answer: Glad you like it, also the savageness is meant to show how much his mind has degraded because of the many events that have occured since his departure from Hueco Mundo. Eventually he will learn, I will make it so.

Chapter 17
Meech Macko: It was understandable that Ichigo went AWOL, when witnessing that the rouge Theramore band was more than willing to finish Lynn Hyal and her son when finding that they have survived the massacre and that they would proceed again to "clean up" matters without mercy. I guess it was pretty great that Ichigo hollow came in and that at least showed the others what he is truly capable of befitting a death god ( pretty sure Ichigo Hollow fans are pleased with his arrival...lol.) The hollow power must keep the others vary and fearful of...and not to underestimate Ichigo just coz he is slightly underage. I have a feeling this wouldn't be the first Ichigo goes AWOL...he would still have to witness the cruelty of war and what it does ...hope his morals and shinigami honor codes don't go " AWOL " when he sees the utmost cruelty. Killing option for Ichigo can be his very last resort...when all options are exhausted. If he keeps killing and the others manipulate him to go to war coz of his power and him being forced to kill too many would end up making Ichigo callous and unfeeling in the end... Hmmm...what would Adelina's true age would be?...

Answer: Glad someone got it, also you are right that the Hollow partially manifested on ichigo's desire for vengence. Not fully, but enough for him to cause some serious damage. Also you are right, that is why at the end Ichigo was so distraught with what he had done, he hasn't changed in character, but his mind is not what it use to be. Also her true age, I am not telling. LOL

ManlyMonk: You're writing has quality, and the way you write flows. I understand what you mean by limiting the Godly shutdown that someone like Ichigo can bring, but in my opinion, it is a bit too much and exaggerated. Wait, let me explain, I've waited all 19 chapters to. First off, his physical abilities. At the moment that he was fighting Grimmjow, he was very strong. Yet, even with explanations of how that world has weakened him, even without Bankai he should be able to at least win. Winning was in at least barely beating them. Each time he fights, he gets stronger, more experienced. He seems so easily beaten it disturbs me. Even without his sword play, he can fight with his fists just like in canon. We see him fight thugs with ease, and in combination with his greater acquired strength, he should be able to handle warriors. Now his mentality. We all know he's hot tempered, protective to a fault, and has a heroic complex, but you are dragging this way too much. We can all see him mature, especially after his Bankai and further down the road. His discipline is much more refine to be able to achieve Bankai, and so is his mentality. He is a smart kid. He excels in school, and even with all that stress, worry, and fear, this guy is not thinking like the intelligent character that he is. You are making his youthful and hotheadedness too much. Even with the killing thing. I know you explained how hollows are purified, but we see over and over again from his fights with his inner hollow that he has learned to listen to his instincts and not hold back. Back to his Bankai, YES, HE CAN USE BANKAI ALONG WITH GETSUGA TENSHOU. Why is he not using it more. I'm not saying that he can spam it, but he has that ability all along, and with the arc that you used, he even has his vizard mask. It always seems that Bankai is his default fighting position and we rarely see his shikai. You can weakened this all you want, and even with good explanations and plot, you cannot weaken him to the point of pre-Seritei arc. He has SHUNPO. He barely uses shunpo, and considering his speed, he should be able to move, MOVE MOVE. Getting caught by lightning, running off like a child is simply not him. I admire the quality and the characterization, but the limitations are grinding on my annoyance, and I really hope that you can change this. There are so many more strong characters in the Warcraft world, and facing this much trouble even though he is a shinigami is just not feasible. He should at least overcome these small things and struggle against the greater picture. What we admire about both the bleach series and warcraft is the epicness. So far, he is all prissy and different from his self. I'm not saying making him godly, but at least make him believable to his strengths and weaknesses without straying to far.

Answer: I can understand you feel Ichigo is not powerful enough, but I have said it many times there are reasons for his limitations. He has a physical body, his powers are drained and slowly returning, a well doesn't fill itself with water on its own. Also Ichigo has had no reason to summon his Bankai, the Bankai is meant to be a means of last resort and use. Also even if his abilities are tied around compression his power still does leak out and since his powers are not at their maximum and he has never used his body to such constraints it is likely he would suffer severe pains from using his Bankai in this new body. After all the Soul is free and unhindered by the world, the body is not. It is bound by nature and how it was made. It would be no different that yourself having this power, in his spiritual form he is unbound by natural laws and defies them, on Azeroth he is still human and bound by those rules.

TeninTwang: Surely there should be a sardonic comment in there about 'guilty until proven innocent'? Also, Ichigo, again, isn't making himself out to be all that clever. He's acting like Naruto would when, as a protagonist, he's a hell of a lot cleverer.

Answer: Ichigo is not of clear mind, has the events of the last few chapters simply been ignored. He is angry, sad and guilty over the events of Shady Rest that he isn't exactly thinking at one hundred percent and throwing things around.

Ranmaleopard: Awesome keep it up!

Answer: I will.

Kazaru13: Double updates rock! Good luck on the next chap!

Answer: I will, thanks for the praise.

Noble1998: I'm suprised that they would let a youngblood just go, wouldn't they stop or at the very least, attach some more older veterans or something to go with him, even if he left immediately?

Answer: Well this is something he want to do alone, also him leaving his post is not something he can just do, neither could the veterans without permission to do so. Even if they want to help Drekhve they would be basically disobeying orders. Dereliction of duty is a serious crime, something that Drekhve is willing to face to safeguard the honor of the Horde in place of his own.

LazyLegionSpark: Oh my, this is a significant plot event. Ichigo has killed in a rage and that will affect him terribly in many great measures. It is likely that the next time he fights he might choke up worried that he might kill someone. I imagined him possibly acting like Vash the Stampede from Trigun when he accidentally miscalculated a bullets trajectory and injured his target in a potential lethal manner in which he rushed to him in a panic trying desperately to perform first aid and kept him from potentially dying(Even though chances he probably would not, though the chance still scared the "Ruthless" criminal Vash.). The confrontation at the end was kinda funny in my opinion. I imagine them after yelling in each other face turning at the same time and going to do their thing. Also OHKO on Teranol just like a certain Lieutenant on a certain hill in Bleach.

Answer: That's right, the realization that his anger and despair actually bringing out his inner hollow will greatly affect him in the future. Also you are right about that, in some cases he may even remove himself from a fight to prevent serious loss of life. Also glad you like the One Hit Knock Out.

Jinzomaster656: Well i for one liked ichigo killing people but he should know about his hollow so i don't understand why he seemed confused. Anyways thanks for the great work please keep it up

Answer: He isn't confused that he has a hollow, he is confused that he purposely let it out to rampage.

Reality Diviant: The previous chapter was understood, and nicely done. this one was good as well. Seems like ichi now got a tauren friend. I suspect we will see more interaction between the two later.

Answer: There will, they have a promise to keep to one another.

Chapter 18
DD: This incredibly small segment of warcraft lore is taking you awfully long to go through.

Answer: Shall I make it shorter, take away the importance of everything and make a half-ass effort from now on?

Meech Macho: Well, not much, but the plots is thickening and getting more interesting...

I thought Adelina had very pale whitish lavender glowy eyes...or did you improve/change on her appearance on this updated version fic?

Ichigo CAN at the very least USE Shunpo to his advantage and its much better than spamming Getsuga Tensho plus I doubt it requires that much effort...no need to depower the god figure (shinigami title) too much as he is pretty much a half godlike being himself thanks to his father.

In this realm Shunpo trick can strike fear...I mean you see the guy in front then suddenly he is right behind you slitting your throat...yeah that kinda fear, put a pause on them from reacting quicker. Ichigo in his BAN-KAI form can go at crazy speeds enough to create afterimages and he manged to surprise another Shunpo specialist like Byakuaya...if you have seen the first encounter when Byakuya met Ichigo and kinda " appeared right behind and in sick speeds and broke his sword which he did not even realize until much later. (the makeshift kickstarter power what he got from Rukia...the catalyst to his dormant shinigami power which Rukia was.)

Death God title should strike fear and fittingly he should be a bit more...atleast befitting that title coz we know there are other bigwigs in Warcraft realm.

Till next update...

Answer: No her appearance is pretty much the same. Also Ichigo using Shunpo is much easier than a Getsuga Tensho, as that draws in a lot of power from the person. A lot of power. While Shunpo is relatively lightweight considering. Also Ichigo isn't at the point where he slits throats for the heck of it, killing is something no one knows if they can do it. Also he had the potential to use more of his powers, but because he is in a physical body he cannot access it easily. It would be no different than him being in his human body back on earth. Which is much more vulnerable than his spirit body.

Reality Deviant: good update. What of the bronze from before?

Answer: What do you mean exactly?

Krazyfanfiction1: AMAZING chapter as always. Keep up the good work Also, Ichigo hasn't really been crossing anybody over lately, has he?

Answer: I will, also Ichigo hasn't come across any ghosts trapped on the mortal plane. The spirit realm and mortal realms are actually very far apart from one another. Aside from a select few realms, but yeah spirits always go to the afterlife, only those held back by magic or other means, usually a certain place are left. And Ichigo hasn't actually come across those places before.

Ramnaleopard: Awesome I can't wait for Ichigo to find the leaders of the conspiracies. Keep it up!

Answer: Yeah, it is going to be awesome.

Examine Draco: Once again a brilliant chapter on your part. I really enjoyed this one in comparison to the previous version. This one had more twists and turns to it. It really played upon the whole darker nature and suspicion that you were getting across. On top of that it added a sense of suspense and suspicion. All in all I thought it was much better than the previous version, as such I'm looking forward to the next chapter and I hope to see them soon.

Answer: Glad you liked it, Transcendence was a little more cartoonist than this story. So when I made this I decided to get rid of the tropes as I was suggested to and I found that this story improved immensely because of it.

Lazylegionspark: The level of intrigue is getting higher and higher. I am wondering how are the conspirators going to be found. I kinda wish for Ichigo to find the Lieutenant yet at the same time kinda against. If he finds him, Ichigo will be able to get some relief from his guilt be having justice be meet out by his hands which failed to save the people of Shady Rest. On the other hand however, he might lose himself again due to the nastiness of the Lieutenant and might go a do more things he would regret, and it is also possible that he might freeze up due to the fear and guilt from Lost Point.

Time for more people to start realizing that Ichigo is a being of great power. The Horde will become rather fearful once they discover that there is such a power being on the Alliances "side". Some folk such as Drekvhe and Thrall might not get scared but others will since they distrust humans so.

Enjoying your work. Looking forward to more.

Answer: Yes, so many possibilities exist, and you will have to wait to see what happens.

Mattchew: I was about to say...Getsuga Tenshou? Bankai? Mask? Something? You had an interesting premise but your execution failed in hooking me on this story. Your taking Ichigo, one of the strongest Shinigami at the time you took him from in Cannon and turned him into a weakling? No thank you.

Answer: Well sorry to disappoint you, but that is the direction my story takes and if you cannot accept how a person writes then I will not explain why I did it.

Jp0625: Your story is interesting, but there is one glaring flaw. Ichigo's physical body is on Earth with Urahara. He would appear as some type of spirit most likely on Azaroth unless he somehow manifested a physical body. Bleach doesn't show the human world to often a lot of the fights are spiritual in nature, so this fact is easy to overlook.

I'm going to keep reading, but I had that rattling aroung in my head as I was reading.

Answer: Unless the means in which he arrived somehow resulted in him acquiring a body, remember that nothing prevents Ichigo from being tied to a mortal form. After all spirits can possess a number of different bodies as they come along, the Sha are a good example. Also Ichigo does have a physical body, if he was a spirit he would basically be stuck in the spirit world where you go when you die in the game, that is where he would be.

DarthPrince: While the story certainly has a promise, i need to point out some things that have been bothering me.

Firstly, characterization of Ichigo. He's a rather stubborn individual, yes, obsessed with protecting his friends. But he's also a smart man. He's capable of listening to a reason and making smart decisions. But here he's a hysterical boy, blabbering names for unknown reason and about his own world like it's going out of style, and running around blindly like headless chicken. He's not Luffy from One piece - Luffy might have done that.

Secondly, absurdly illogical Shandris. The guy saved you and your people from a massacre? Well, obviously he's a threat. Oh, now he told you some ridiculous story and made puppy eyes on you? Of course you will let him go and would not try to use him an his abilities - he's a good guy, obviously.

Thirdly, it's sometimes hard to enjoy the story because Ichigo doesn't really care about this world. He may try to save someone who he sees at the moment, but aside from finding about ways to get back and surviving, he's not interested at all. Of course, he's worried about war at Hueco Mundo, but he's already late to it anyway.

Now that i had gotten it all out of my system, i will continue to read with light heart. Hope you don't take it as an offense, i didn't meant it as such. Good luck to you.

Answer: Ichigo isn't exactly in a situation to make a logical and smart decision and he just went through a very stressful and psychological trauma that would scar him severely. Also he had no idea about where he is or the world he is on or how he ended up in the situation.

Shadris heard his story and considered it, mulling it over for several hours, and also she realizes that he is still a potential threat and danger and isn't going to let him go off scott free. She will ensure Jaina is prepared to face him if need be and also she realizes he is likely not strong enough to face them as he did not attempt to attack likely out of his own safety. Also she can't risk him going on a sort of rampage, after all Ichigo had the potential to level Feathermoon Stronghold easily, and keeping him there against his will isn't the smartest thing to do.

Also you know the state of the thing were when he was cast into the Nether, he is scared. He is having nightmares about it and he cannot deal with it.

Also I understand where your coming from and I don't take offense, you are just wondering about it.

Galeiam: Finally..with all that talk about not wanting Ichigo to be so strong here i was thinking you had nerfed him.

Answer: Of course not, I made him more human but I didn't put him down to the point where he can't fight a normal guy without getting his ass kicked.

Terumi Calamity: I don't really have a problem with this story I actually think it's a unique one the only great problem I see much is that what most don't realize is that Ichigo will do what it takes if he must kill you he will. In the beginning being a normal human kid he would not even think such a thing but being mature throughout all the combat he went through Ichigo knows when to kill and when not to. He is also honorable and would go so far as to allow someone to cut off his arm because he lost control and injured said person even though they're opponent. He may not like killing but like many people who fight in battle he realize when to or when not to. He also knows some people should be killed all who've fought in battle knows this.

Because of zangetsu words Ichigo knows not to regret his actions because it dulls his sword and most importantly he's not conceited as to think human lives are above others. He will fight and if needed kill to protect others even if he does not know them he's a protector through and through and will not wallow in regret for the actions he takes when doing so, he would try and give his opponent and honourable end or try to bury them.

This is what I've always like with Ichigo that made bleach the number one anime for me and him my favourite other from emiya kiritsugi and gilgamesh from fate zero. I'm not saying you should make him cold and not caring that's not ichigo but you could if you want this is fanfiction after all no what I'm saying is that Ichigo will not spend weeks regretting that he killed his opponents. He will feel sad about ending someone life but resolve that doing so saved the people who he is protecting.

Answer: I understand that Ichigo can be put into a position to kill, but in the time he has been around there is only one point where he has killed with actual conviction and that was Ganju. Also he did express regret for killing Ulquiorra but only because he was not in control when he did it and basically butchered him. Ichigo is not someone to take lives very lightly, even his enemies are spared from death. I think he can kill those he has to, he didn't kill the Espada he fought, even though their actions showed they deserved it. Ichigo likely saw them as pawns and didn't want to kill them like they were nothing. He likely would kill Aizen, but even so when he thought he did there was a briefest moment of regret in his eyes. Death is something he does not like dealing out, but I do not doubt he is capable of dealing it when it needs be.

Chapter 19
Reality Deviant: interesting development... cant wait for their battle vs ichigo.

Answer: It will come soon, really soon.

Ramnaleopard: This is great keep it up!

Answer: Sure will.

Lazylegionspark: You are great oh mighty JIMMYJAMSTER728. I do enjoy CSI and NCIS so this chapter was just up my alley. The traitors are really capable and numerous. They pose a legitimate threat as a antagonistic group. With Ichigo likely going to be worried and/or cautious when they encounter them, they will be in for a tough fight, unless the Lieutenant or random traitors has a case of motor mouth.

Looking forward to the next chapter.

Answer: Glad to hear that you like it. Also all villains like to monologue, you know that. Also I can tell you these traitors are coming prepared for the fight.

Krazyfanfiction1: amazing chapter as always. Well worth the wait, keep up the good work as always.

Answer: Glad you like it, and I will continue to strive towards excellence.

Examine Draco: Well it looks like things are starting to come to a head here. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens in the next couple of chapters as it's bound to be interesting. I can only imagine just how much surprise there is going to be (possibly even a little fear depending on the individuals who might have been rude to Ichigo like Proudmoore's handmaiden telling him to grow up, or Vimes kicking him off the investigation) should other individuals involved in this whole incident learn of Ichigo being a death god. At any rate I don't really have a whole lot to say about this chapter since it was mostly set up for a future chapter or two (since we haven't heard anything from the horde yet about their investigation yet if ever) though it was still important. I really enjoyed how well the plot was done up. I'm also looking forward to learning who this 'lieutenant' is since I have a few theories, but nothing substantial or any evidence to support them at this moment.

Hope you update again soon!

Answer: Yes, I can tell you that it will be interesting. Also Jaina's Handmaiden knows exactly who he is and what he is, and she doesn't care. Also I think you will be surprised by the Lieutenant.

Meech Macko: This chap was exciting...the whole detective and mystery solving genre is one of my favorite genres.

Now the Theramore traitor guard would be hunting Ichigo and his "partner"...but I don't think they know of his power, I guess they would be in for a surprise. Hoping Ichigo at least lives up to his DEATH GOD (SHINIGAMI) name and not get reduce to human levels at least his power has to make "some" impression or Ms. Jaina Proudmoore would be sorely underestimating on what the Title of a Death God means and Ichigo's shinigami status would seem more like an overblown hoax...that is, IF he is reduced human levels of power.

Has Adelina's appearance changes in this new revamp?

Guess, we'll see in the next chap...

Answer: Glad you like the genre. Also Ichigo will show off what he is made off, trust me, he will. But also remember, that even with great power you are not invincible. You can survive being cut a hundred times, but one one cut is needed to finally bring you down.

Also Adelina has always kept her appearance as it was depicted in the original.

Tundrafire: Jeez, my friend, I haven't read this story for a while, go back to reread and find out it is now more well written, I'm must say I'm impressed. Good Job.

Answer: Glad you like the rewrite, good to have your awesome wisdom in here. And those epic quotes of yours. A good quote, one that I feel that I am trying to accomplish with writing this story.

Bleachnumber1protector: i think that the old gods should become involved by whispering to Ichigo and his inner spirits, but it won't effect Ichigo nor zangestu, but his inner hollow causing him to become annoyed and hostile toward the old gods and having an obsession to want to kill them. I know that this may sound a little weird and all, but I think it would be a pretty interesting thing to add to the story because I think that it would provide a good "arch" in a sense for this story or finally for it since it could provide a very plausible way for Ichigo to find a way home.

Like for example the titans come and thank him for ridding their world of the old god's evil and will present him with a way home as thanks. Also the reason for why Ichigo's hollow won't become more destructive and insane from the old gods is because he's already very insane and destructive. So if you would please add that in it would be a great thanks, but if not i would have a perfect understanding.

Answer: The Old Gods are actually very dangerous, especially towards Ichigo due to his spiritual nature, if he was to get within a certain distance of them they could sense him and he them. Also they would have a profound effect on him as well, invading his mind and trying to shatter his souls. The Old Gods are very powerful, equal if not more so than the Soul King. After all they are said to be stronger than Sargaras in some ways. So if Sargaras has the power of a hundred dragons and releases a wave of heat that can change the climate of an entire planet, than they are tough.

Never underestimate the eyeball or the toothy squid, these monsters of Eldrich Horror are not to be messed with.

Number III: Man this guy is one cocky son of a bitch.

Fighting an exhausted, injured man, using a live hostage as a shield to keep him from striking, and having the balls to say he's strong.

What fucking trash.

If you're so strong put the little girl down and take it like a man. If there's no way that blade can cut you, what'dya have to worry about, you little chicken shit? Just a chump. Can't even beat a mortally wounded man without any cheap tricks. Have to sit there psyching yourself up with all this 'the winner is the strongest, no matter how he wins, crap. You're such a loser.

Wish he'd say something like that to this twat. The reaction would be so worth it.

I hope you include an extra chapter of Nel beating the living shit out of this chump, because seriously. So full of it. Guys that arrogant deserve proportionately painful deaths.

Answer: Nnoitra is a very evil kind of guy, he doesn't believe in honor and uses anything to win a fight. Yeah Nnoitra needs to be beaten up, but his aspect of Death is Despair itself so he likely wants to die in some manner and since he has always been spared it he simply doesn't care anymore.
