Bankai Ichigo

Bankai (卍解, "Final Release") is the third (second in terms of upgrading) form that a Shingami's Zanpakutō (斬魄刀, Soul-cutter sword) can get and can only normally be achieved when a Shinigami builds a strong relationship with their Zanpakutō and train for decades, though Kisuke Urahara's special method of training was used by Yoruichi Shihōin to help Ichigo achieve Bankai in 3 days the same way Urahara did. Once achieved, the shinigami can unlock their zanpakutō's full potential, increasing their own power several times over.

In Super Smash Flash 2, this is used as Ichigo's and Renji's Final Smash but with the difference one is a Final Form and the other is and Attack Final Smash.
