Nice to see this isn't abandoned I was getting worried.
Fun chapter, looking forward to seeing more.

I vote Kensei to be Ichigo's primary trainer since Hiyori is a useless crackhead.

Hey Author,

I honestly think you should also do a "Final Cut" version of the final story arc, "Thousand Year Blood War." Some the things that bothered me in that last story arc includes:

#1. The fact that Soul Society did NOT condemn Ichigo for arriving too late to help them; as a failure of that magnitude should created a major trust issue between Ichigo and MOST (if not ALL) of Soul Soceity.

#2. The morale of Soul Society should've been MUCH worse than depicted in canon AFTER Yamamoto's death and the fact that some of the captain's Bankai. In fact, there should've more situations similar like depicted in canon in Chapter 538 (in which two members of the 10th Division talking about how they were done for because their captain lost his Bankai), but being much worse by having various Shinigami losing faith in their captains and considering quitting/resigning because they feel that it is a clearly losing battle if another invasion happened. Essentially, killing Yamamato should've just been part of Ywach's overall plan by having Soul Society weaken itself from within due to low morale and in-fightning amongst themselves in the aftermath.

#3. Uryu should've been depicted as joining Ywach for real and actually having a real life-and-death battle against Ichigo.

#4. The Zero Squad should've have consisted of characters who were fully serious yet showing kindness and compassion when necessary; as opposed to some of the goofy moments.

#5. The Quincy should've been depicted as actually originally having the means to destroy Hollows like the Shinigami do (via their zanpakutos); until certain events prompted them to abandon their original weapons and use reishi weapons instead.

I think that played out much better than the original.

Author makes a bunch of changes to "fix" canon, so don't expect for the setting to be the exact same, but not so much as to be a complete AU. Its all listed down in the first chapter for you to check out. He uses some characters from the epilogue and novels too.

Unfortunately, it doesn't really makes things better. I would even go so far as to say it makes things slightly worse.
Grammar and prose is fine though, but the interactions/relationships between characters is kinda off-putting.

Score: 3.5 to 4 out of 10.

You're just editing each chapter aren't you?

Very, very nice.

I'd originally caught up on this story when it went right up to Kensei's death at the ending of the fullbring arc, and while I'm very much enjoying the new stuff, I kind of wish there were somewhere I could still read your version of the Aizen and Fullbring arcs.

Reviewing stuff properly now:

The tournament arc is cool. Straight tournaments are always cool. Introducing the hell arc characters way early is very cool, and the fights are well structured too. Giving Akon some credit independent of Kurotsuchi is an interesting choice, and I like it. Adds depth to the character.

Showing that Zangetsu not only knows who Masaki is but has some emotional attachment explicitly tells the audience that he's already existed before the shattered shaft, which on one hand solves the whole asspull issue, which is good. But I have no idea why was he suppressed by "black lightning". That doesn't make sense as Zangetsu (Quincy) going by canon, but it could still make sense within this continuity. Or it could just be someone else.

The Isshin change is interesting. Makes sense that the Urahara suppressor thingy would go away once Ichigo was born instead of transferring to him, and it's an interesting change.

I'm excited to see where you're going with this.
