Reiatsu (霊圧, Spiritual Pressure) is the physical force/pressure that a person's Reiryoku creates when released. Most Shinigami, Arrancar, Quincy, and Fullbringers can manipulate the release of their Reiatsu. The difference between Reiryoku (Spiritual Power) and Reiatsu (Spiritual Pressure) is simple: Reiryoku is the amount of energy a being has stored within their body or soul, whereas.
What's being shown are the different colors of ichigo's reiryoku, yellow for his shinigami, red for his hollow, blue for quincy, and green for fullbringer. Even in the manga, ichigo's reiryoku is portrayed as yellow. Throughout the Manga/Anime, Ichigo's Reiatsu has had a couple of variations of colour, usually because of the source his power is coming from changes or alters.
Like when in Bankai in the Soul Society Arc, his Reiatsu is Blue, until Hollow Zangetsu takes over when fighting Byakuya, from then. In the anime and according to the Bleach wiki everyone has their own unique reiatsu color (eg. Renji's is red, Rukia's is white, Grimmjow's is blue, and so on).
My question is did Tite Kubo choose these colors for them or was it just something the animators added? I've been re-watching the anime and it's just a little detail I've noticed this time around. The term Reiatsu refers to Bleach's interpretation of what a Battle Aura is. Characters with great spiritual power all have Reiatsus in the world of Bleach - each of them possessing their own unique colors and characteristics.
Ichigo's Reiatsu was originally yellow in Tite Kubo's manga before it became completely black. Reiatsu Color theory Different spirits have different colors of reiatsu, and it does not depend on the character's race or power; instead, the color is determined by the owner's personality. Reiatsu (霊圧, Spiritual Pressure) color is directly tied to the personality and mental state of the Spiritual Creature itself; each of the colors thus kinda represent an aspect and while this is quite.
I think I understand the reason behind Ichigo's spirit energy colors. Ichigo's spirit energy was blue probably due to Old Man Zangetsu's influence, his Golden Yellow spirit energy represents his actual Shinigami powers and after he reached his full potential. His Getsuga was light blue, so it must have been that.
Shirosaki had just hijacked his Zanpakuto, making the Getsuga black. But why was Mugetsu, the highest point of Ichigo's powers, pure black reiatsu? Black is good/purification, white is bad/annihilation. One of Bleach's core themes.
It all falls into place.Kubo And thanks for the 5 stars. Ichigo's reiatsu and Getsuga Tenshou was always intended by Kubo to be golden in color. While his bankai was meant to be black with a silver underglow & edge.
As you can see above, Ichigo's Reiatsu in the manga is more of a golden yellow. In the anime, for whatever reason, they decided to change it to blue. It's one of those changes that leave you wondering why as it doesn't affect the story in any way, so why not just leave it as it was? It isn't as if blue is a more appealing color than gold.
