So I guess this flash back is going to be like it's own mini arc. I'm really enjoying all the back story, but i still don't get what any of this has to do with the reason ichigo is considered unqualified to be a true soul reaper and how this info is going to help fix his bankai......
That guy in Kings realm Ouetsu or something makes all of the asauchi / blank swords. Any real shinigami gets them and they use them to pour their reiatsu and form their own Zanpaktou.
Zaraki got his asauchi from random dead shinigami, rest of the people in academy - nameless shinigami got their asauchi from Yama probably or sometime in the school. Ichigo on the other hand obtained Zangetsu some crazy way.
Zangetsu came from hilt that Ichigo was left with from Rukia Zanpaktou and probably Ichigo being related to Isshin / Kaien. Zangetsu could also be formed the same way as Hollows form their swords when they become arrancars. Ichigo lacks real foundation of a Zanpaktou, strong relationship with his Asauchi so there is like no material to reforge a Zanpaktou from.
I know all that but i want to know why he wasn't choosen by the asauchi so he can get a genuine zanpakuto. It seems like right now the reason is because he is of quincy blood but if that's the case then how can he possibly go further with his soul reaper training?
