Izuru Kira Is Still Alive

During the start of the war between Shinigami vs Quincy, we saw that a large number of Shinigami and Quincy’s died, one of which was Izuru Kira’s death. Even before the battle began, a stream of light blasts through and hits Kira’s torso, which destroys the right part of his body into nothingness. From then on, we had no clear proof if he’s dead or alive, here’s why Kira is still alive.

Kira arm cut near death

As seen in the image above, we see Kira’s body fully blown off while his arm just falls to the ground with nothing to support it. While this is in fact what happened in the main canon manga, it’s impossible to know what has happened in terms of if Kira is still alive and breathing after such a crucial blow.

A forum member over at Narutobase posted a particular image from a Bleach fanbook, whereby members of the Gotei 13 and other members are included in this book, it also includes thinks like character pools, popular Zanpakuto’s, Shinigami battles and character drawn by other mangaka authors. The book seems to be official.

It features a panel where we can see something amazing, we see Kira, Mayuri and Nemu in the same panel whereby Kira is on an operating bed, with an oxygen mask and wires connected to the right side of his body. This image can been seen below, top right panel:

Kira is still aliveWhile we see Kira on the bed, we can also see members of the Gotei 13, who have contributed to the current war, as they go on ahead and get ready to fight against the Quincy Stern Ritters.

So, what do you think of this news? It seems like Kira is still alive, even if it’s a critical situation where he could still die without careful care. Go on and comment down below telling us what you think about this news? Also be sure to share this page with others.

    Izuru is being treated by Mayuri and Nemu?! I didn’t know that! Wow that’s so cool. So he can be added to the list of people still in the Serietei.

      Do you remember a long time ago we see something in Mayuri’s lab when him and Nemu were operating on something or someone and from that they came out and we saw something on their table. It could just be my imagination but I think we did see this scene, but from a different point of view, we didn’t see Kira as we saw him here.

        Yes I remember! Akon woke up from his injures and he and an assistant saw Mayuri and Nemu working on something. This is clearly what they were working on. It wasn’t the illuminating outfits they began wearing in the second invasion. It was Izuru. Wow I’m mind blown. Mainly because I always assumed Isane would be healing him. But I Guess Mayuri has something in store for him.

            That must be it. Remember when Uryu fought Mayuri? He entered in the former final holy form and shit his arm off with a Heilig Pfeil. He probably examined Izuru and saw that he was hit by Bazz-B’s Heilig Pfeil. Now it makes me wonder what he did with Rangiku and Toshiro.

    I’d say that it’s certainly possible that he will survive. I could see it, but at the same time, I think it would have been a decent way to end his character arc if he did stay dead.

      Ya I’ll have to agree. Their is really no point to keeping him alive or dead. I least when he was thought to be dead, it impacted how powerful the Sternritter are. Plus Bazz-B is the one that attacked him, but NaNaNa was right. He told Rojuro that Bazz-B didn’t kill everyone in his area. Guess he meant Izuru.

        Ya it was. I remember when first saw that chapter back in 2012. That’s when the Shinigami Kubo started giving more grievous injures to the Shinigami.

          Hah I like the way you put that, totally agree with you, Kubo has been totally slashing and dashing his way go making Bleach even more darker with even more deadlier injuries. I think when Zaraki’s younger self was first seen with his tiny body and huge sword, I knew then that the sword he holds will slash everyone in his sight, and by then he was standing on a grave of bodies, which Kubo even showed. Bleach is definitely no Naruto, Fairy Tail or One Piece.

            Yup. That one was so amazing. The fact that Zaraki spoke like a mass murderer. He didn’t care who he cut, plants, stones, or people. I can’t wait to see how Unohana was. Yamamoto as well. How evil and murderous they were. They are basically what Yhwach is today. I know this arc is definitely more violent. Its definitely different from most anime. Its more realistic when it comes to war.

                They must have been. Why else would Yhwach say that so long ago, the original Gotei 13 were the only individuals in the world that can cause fear into his heart. Yamamoto even killed his escorts Argola and Hubert. Even his right hand man Zeidritz. I believe Unohana killed the most Quincy. I can also say the Royal Guard were very different back than. Haven’t you noticed how evil Kubo shows Ichibei?

                  Yeah I think he was one of the members of the previous generation of captains who were truly badass. I really wouldn’t mind seeing another time rewind mini-arc where we’d see them here in their natural behavior, would be something satisfying to see how the natural born killers really were.

                  Ya I would enjoy that. Sense Yhwach said all the original Gotei 13 were murderous criminals. Than I believe that includes Shunsui and Jushiro. They are over 2000 years old. I really think in that flashback, we will see why Shunsui wears a women’s kimono.

        Haha, well I suppose it also depends on how much you like the guy. I’ve never cared for Kira, which certainly affects my view of his death. If he does end up being alive, hopefully he will get a fight at the end then to make it all worth while. Some kind of tag team battle or maybe a Bankai reveal! (Since everyone has a bankai nowadays)

          Doubt it, in the condition he’s in he won’t be able to move for a while. If he can get some kind of alternative stem cell therapy using Mayuri’s help, then maybe he can still live but highly doubt he can even move or get out of that bed.

            See, in that case, I feel like he may as well be dead. Similar to Yamato in Naruto. I believe that he survived, but he may as well have died after he was kidnapped by Kabuto as he never really contributed to the story again.

                Heh heh, kind of like most of the background characters in AOT! That being said, at least they get chomped once and die instantly as opposed to slowly so they’re still better off

                  Izuru most likely will die. He looks like someone that’s on a machine with an incurable illness. Kubo did say in an interview that he wouldn’t give Izuru a Bankai because his Shikai is already haxed. The same with Yumichika. He instead gave Bankai to Rukia, Shuuhei , and Rangiku. Because after the winter war ended, they all started training together. I believe Yachiru has a Bankai as well. Sense she can keep her Shikai in Its sheath. And only Captain level Shinigami can do that.

    I had a feeling Izuru was alive, and he is under Mayuri’s care, so he should pull through, (although I wouldn’t say he is safe since Mayuri’s “care”.)

    Upon realizing that the number of Gillian will not decrease so long as the Garganta is open, Izuru and the others combine their Reiatsu to seal the Garganta, preventing more Gillian from arriving. After Izuru and his allies defeat the remaining Gillians, Ichigo emerges from the destroyed dome with a defeated Muramasa.
