Strong is Fullbring Shikai Ichigo and Fullbring Bankai How

Basically, how strong is Fullbring Ichigo's question? I want people to respect this version of Ichigo; he is highly underrated in the community. I will review his statement, feats, power, and strength in this answer. I am not going to lie. It is 1 of the drippiest forms of Ichigo.

Now we know Ichigo lost his shinigami powers after defeating Aizen in the FKT arc. He then trains with Ginjo and other fraud full bringers to re-acquire his shinigami/hollow powers. Ginjo, when training, Ichigo stated Ichigo would gain powers beyond that of a soul reaper.

This statement means Kubo, through ginjo, is saying fullbring ichigo is above his former shinigami self(being bankai + hollow mask)in the past arcs. This makes sense since we know in Shounen anime mc's always get greater amp than their former ones in each arc.

A completed fullbring, Ichigo was able to fight and overpower Tsukishima.

He even speeds blitz Tsukishima, and cuts his arm off. This same tsukishima scales to post-fkt Byakuya, who defeated Yammy(strongest Espada) alongside Kenny in the FKT arc. And Ichigo scales to him. After ginjo tricked Ichigo and stole his powers, Rukia and others gave Ichigo a jump start to bring his shinigami powers back via sharing of reiatsu/spiritual energy from all soul society. Ichigo easily overpowered ginjo in just his Shikai form.

Ichigo casually swinging his sword made ginjo mistake it as a getsuga tensho attack(meaning a casual sword swing from Ichigo equals a getsuga attack). Ichigo then does a real getsuga tensho which splits the fucking skies open.

Ginjo got shooked that he decided to retreat from the fade. This version of Ichigo is exponentially stronger than his completed Fullbring and Espada arc forms. Now you need to pay attention to the fact that captains were sent to the WOTL to stop Ichigo if he joins ginjo and attacks SS. Yamamoto sent Kenpachi,Byakuya,Toshiro,Ikkaku and Renji. 3 captains to earth to fight Ichigo if he joined Ginjo.In the SAWY novel, this Kenpachi Zaraki defeated Cien Granz (a being as strong as vasto lorde Ichigo) and Azashiro the 7th Kenpachi. Byakuya defeated Yammy (the strongest Espada). Toshiro, who scales to Harribel.It means Yamamoto respect fullbring Ichigo for sending this big captain against him. Ichigo defeated Ginjo.

He also destroyed a pocket dimension just by going bankai.

TYBW arc

In the war arc, Ichigo fought and defeated Quilge Opie, a stern ritter of Yhwach's army. Quilge was strong enough to take an assault from Ayon and absorb Ayon into himself. But when Ichigo entered his bankai form, quilted couldn't keep up with his power and speed.

Ichigo also confronted Yhwach and scratched base Yhwach with his attack after charging up his reiatsu.

And with, he could defend himself from being killed by Yhwach. Yhwach also made Ichigo a special war threat for his army to prepare against. This meaning saw Fullbring Ichigo as a threat to his stern ritter army. I believe this version of Ichigo is as strong as his VL form. He is easily a planetary-level being and is above your average captain in power.

Edit:new upgrade in FB Ichigo scaling. In the new Bleach anime, we see Ichigo react and keep up with base Yhwach in combat, and he also damaged Yhwach when he activated his Quincy powers. This is no small feat considering Ichigo wasn't even at full power after exhausting himself from Quilge's jail.

Base Yhwach also stole Yamamoto's bankai and stated he was the only Quincy to be able to steal Yamaji's bankai. This statement puts Yamamoto above all stern ritters (NB this is 1 arm Yamamoto), and a weakened Ichigo was not only able to square up against this base yhwach but also damaged (bruised yhwach's left arm). This should make Fullbring Ichigo relative to 1 arm Yamamoto. And he is a special war threat. All this before getting his true powers.

Respect fullbring Ichigo
