Bleach: Shattered Blade -- Gin Ichimaru

Now we're talking! I like this guy...I like him a lot. I also like the way he's portrayed in English. Gin is...just so mysterious. And he plays the part of a villain so well, even if he's only distracting everybody so that they're not looking out for an even bigger villain.

I honestly don't know...there's probably nothing you'd want to do more than get away from this sinister-looking and sounding man, because he's so impressively and obviously up to something...you just don't know WHAT.

The weird thing is that this carries over even to his new allegiance and supposed allies. Aizen seems to place a great deal of trust in him, or at least about as much as you could ever expect someone like Aizen to trust anyone in the first place...but even Arrancar notice how shifty and uncertain his behavior is and tend to distrust him. Heck, I think even Tosen is uncertain of how much he can actually be trusted, but Tosen seems to distrust everybody who isn't Aizen by default, which in and of itself is pretty weird.

I have to say, though...above all the weird behavior that he's got some kind of connection with Rangiku Matsumoto from when they were kids. Dare I say it points to the idea that Ms. Fanservice might actually have a character hidden somewhere deep within those heaving mounds of sheer gravity defiance?

I'm not exactly sure where "Yarisazame" comes from, nor can I exactly where the extra blades come from, but the special move I'm most impressed with is the iconic command that Gin's always using when you see him: "Shoot 'em dead, Shinso!" Interestingly, it's the one special move I know of that can break a guard...that's ordinarily something you've got to use a Critical attack to do...and Shinso also has very high priority and tends to override a lot of other attacks. Furthermore, by swinging the remote either to the right or to the left when the blade has extended, you can prompt Gin to slash the blade in that direction. ("Over here!") Interestingly enough, this attack is also the basis for his ultimate move, albeit without the ability to move it after it is extended, but it still retains the guard breaking ability.

Gin is definitely one of my favorite characters to play as.

How do I get his Gallery set?! I can't find it! :(

[YuuGiJoou]

@PandaBearLuv3r To have a character appear in the gallery, you must first unlock them. For Gin, beat Arcade as both Rangiku Matsumoto and Izuru Kira.

In order to unlock most characters' voice data for purchase in the Urahara Shop so that you can have access to it in the gallery, you need to win matches as that character. If you just keep playing Arcade Mode (two or three times should be enough) as that character, you should gain enough wins and money that buying things should not be a problem.

@YuuGiJoou Thank you so much! One more question: How do I make Gin say "Well, aren't you full of yourself, Sega?" Because when I set him, he just says "Sega".

[YuuGiJoou]

@PandaBearLuv3r Unfortunately, that's something you can't do in the game itself, it's just part of the second half of his voice data. Every character actually has an unused pair of joke "Sega" and "Bleach Wii" lines in their voice gallery, but it's beyond me as to why they didn't use them at all for their obvious functions.

So what you see at the beginning of my videos for each of the game's characters is actually just me editing them in myself. Sorry if you felt misled at all by that.

Gin sounds so eloquent when he speaks. It sure is nice to hear someone sound so polite...while they're kicking your ass.
