A little later after the Fullbring Arc ended, we were introduced to some new characters such as Ivan Azgiaro. Ichigo and Ivan have just had their fight with each other. It seems that Ivan has done some background research on Ichigo, while Ichigo seems to know nothing about him, only that he has a Arrancar Mask and

As the title says, Is Ivan the next Grimmjow or Ulquiorra? Well I personally think so. Both Grimmjow and Ulquiorra were Ichigo’s next step when it came to enhancing his powers. They were both very important characters to Bleach, and they both had multiple number of fight with Ichigo.

Currently Ivan seems to be really weak, as he nearly lost to Ichigo after he wanted to take Ichigo’s Bankai. But as Ivan appears again, in front of Ichigo, I believe that this time, he will be even more powerful, so powerful that he will defeat Ichigo. This leading Ichigo to get even more powerful, possibly as powerful as his Final Getsuga Tenshou Form.

Do you also think that Ivan will be the next powerful hot-head like Grimmjow, or like the calm cool kid Ulquiorra? Comment below if you think Ivan will be the next great opponent for Ichigo.
