One of the disappointing things of Thousand Year Blood War..

SpoilerManga

One of the disappointing things of Thousand Year Blood War was not seeing Shinji having a 1 vs 1 with a Sternritter like the other Captains.

Shinji is one of the strongest Captains, i wish he went all out in the final arc and that we saw his Bankai (i know we see it in the novels, but it's not the same thing).

Kubo said they added various battle scenes in the anime that he had to cut in the manga.

Maybe in the anime we will see Shinji finally going all out and fighting a Sternritter or whoever and using his Bankai??

What do you think about it?

Thoughts?

We won't see his Bankai as there really isn't a proper time for him to use it, even if they added battles. It's very specific on the conditions it would be beneficial to use and it would be extremely hard to do that unless they seriously alter the story which I don't really see happening. We might get a slightly longer fight of him vs Bambietta but only time will tell there.

wanting shinji to 1 v 1 a sternritter Wanting shinji to use his bankai

Lmao. The only way that bankai gonna be used if he surrounds himself with fodder. So they will have to drop him in the middle of Quincies with no allies around. And he definitely won't be using it against the sternritter he fights against.

Anyways the 1 v 1 idea I don't mind. But while shinji's bankai is cool the fact it's only effective against fodder makes me not care for i much.

If you know about his Bankai then I’m not really sure why you’d expect to see it. At what point in this arc does it have any valuable use?

Not a chance with the current pacing.
