If you’ve seen the Hollowfied Bankai in TYPE SOUL, you probably had the exact same reaction as everyone else: “What is even happening on my screen?”
Effects everywhere, Getsuga flying, people getting melted in seconds — it looks chaotic. But once you slow it down and actually understand the kit, it starts to make sense… and yeah, it’s really strong when used properly.
Let’s break it down in a way that actually helps you use it — not just watch it.
TYPE SOUL Ichigo Kurosaki Spec Guide – Hollowfied Bankai
This spec is basically built around:
- Getsuga-based attacks
- Fast combos
- Transformation burst (Hollowfied Bankai / Visored)
It’s aggressive, flashy, and rewards players who stay on pressure.
You’re not playing passive with this — you’re constantly pushing.
Hollowfied Bankai
When you activate Hollowfied Bankai, everything ramps up:
- Faster attacks
- Higher damage output
- More chaotic visuals (yes, your screen will suffer)
This is your power spike mode — the moment where you try to overwhelm your opponent.
From what you saw:
- Multiple hits stacking quickly
- Heavy Getsuga pressure
- Enemies struggling to react
That’s exactly how it’s meant to feel.
Ability: Getsuga (Your Main Tool)
You’ll notice one thing instantly:
Getsuga… Getsuga… Getsuga…
That’s not a coincidence.
This move is:
- Your main ranged pressure
- Combo extender
- Safe damage tool
How to Use It Properly
- Don’t spam randomly
- Use it between combos
- Use it when enemy creates distance
If you land this consistently, you control the fight.
Visored / Hollow Mask (Your Boost Phase)
This is where things start getting serious.
When you activate Visored:
- You gain extra power
- Combos become more threatening
- Pressure becomes harder to escape
Think of it as your mid-fight amplifier before going full Bankai.
Combo Playstyle
The reason this spec looks insane is because of its combo flow.
Typical pattern:
- Engage → light combo
- Insert Getsuga
- Continue pressure
- Reposition → repeat
You’re constantly chaining actions.
That’s why enemies feel like:
“Bro what is that combo??”
Because it doesn’t give them breathing room.
Strengths
- High burst damage
- Strong combo chaining
- Good mid-range pressure (Getsuga)
- Very aggressive playstyle
If you’re confident mechanically, this spec feels amazing.
Weaknesses
Let’s be honest — it’s not perfect.
- Can feel chaotic to control
- Easy to misplay if you panic
- Requires good timing, not just spam
- Resource management (Reiatsu) matters
If you just mash abilities, you’ll get punished by better players.
Ichigo’s Hollowfied Bankai isn’t just strong — it’s one of those specs that feels powerful when you’re using it right.
