beacuse the strongest could not be touched.

I am no "thing"
*stabs*

He got blown up by Soi Fon's bankai and almost died even without the arm nonsense. Starrk could probably manage it if he tried.

Loneliness > all other aspects of death

/thread

Starrk could be touched
>inb4 aizen
Aizen isn't an espada

A lot of espada had fucked up numbers because Aizen knew how much it affected their psychology (and thus, power).

How does he read manga?

Starrk counters him, his Lobos wouldn't be affected by Respira. Harribel also counters him since water can't be aged. So even if his powers look broken in paper they wouldn't put him in a tier over Starrk and Halibel

>only second strongest
You mean 'third strongest', right? Fourth if you're including Wonderweiss.

Stark had so much raw power that weaker hollows just died in his vicinity, didn’t even need to touch them, plus like others have said he’s both too fast and his attacks are all long-ranged and extremely powerful so there’s no way for Barragan to get close enough.

Barragan was so powerful that he and ruled an empire.

Starrk was so powerful than anyone who got within a mile of him just died from the power he radiated.

>water can't be aged
fucking kiddo can be age dude
barragans's power was absolute, which is why he dies because it even affected him

Barragan was powerful enough to rule an empire.

Starrk was too powerful to rule an empire.

This.

'cause he Can't Touch This. Da nana na.

Water is a metastable compound, we have in Earth water that is million of years old. Even if he could somehow age water, his aging is not so fast that he could age million of years a high pressure water attack from Halibel that can reach him in seconds.

>even affected him
Doesn't make a power "absolute". As shown, he was also affected by Kido and explosion of a bankai, yet they hardly could be called absolute powers.

It's just that physical things didn't have protection against Respira, so he himself had to have a protective field. Again, doesn't speak to Respira's power or his resilience in terms of ultimate strength.

are you arguing #3 is stronger than #2?

No, just said that water counters Respira.

Did you miss the entire chapter about how Aizen made him 2nd just to fuck with him?

Aged water is still water, kek

People who think that Stark can't Barragan must've missed where Stark shows that he can snipe motherfuckers with his pistols.

Honestly, Stark is the most versatile Espada too. He's got abilities for other situations like with the kamikaze wolves which he could also use against Barragan. He can make energy swords as well. Keep in mind that he can do a lot of amazing shit while being a lazy bastard. IMO, Aizen put him on number 1 because he has not just the superior reiatsu but also the potential to far outshine his opponents if he actually tried.

Wait, I missed this. Where was this? I remember the chapter that features the flashback where Aizen cut down his subordinates and made him submit, but I don't remember this.

The numbers were literally arbitrary, Aizen loves dicking people around with stupid power plays

Because stark is even more powerful. It just depends on his motivation to even try.

I mean, it also have meaning too.

>Aizen loves dicking people around with stupid power plays
That may be true but besides Ulquiorra all the numbers make sense off of Reiatsu alone.

Anyone has the few pictures of Starrk's wolves looking at his dead body then sleeping besides him while slowly disappearing?

even before being told about metastable compounds, when the fuck have you heard of old water

Respira can't straight up negate everything. He got hit by soifon's bankai twice ffs. Gazillions amount of ceros per second would eventually take him out.
