|-|Shinigami Powers=
*Superhuman Physical Characteristics 
**Soul Physiology and Shinigami Physiology (Soul: Low-Tier to Substitute Shinigami Arc Key, High-Tier to Soul Society Key and beyond/Shinigami: Low-Tier to Substitute Shinigami Arc Key, High-Tier to Soul Society Arc Key and beyond)
*Master Swordsman (He was only trained in 10 days but managed to fight and stalemate swordsmen on the caliber of Kenpachi Zaraki, a centuries old swordsman who as a child fought Unohana, a master of 8000 sword styles, and gave her the toughest fight she ever had. He then proceeds to improve his swordsmanship as he progress through many fights such as against geniuses like Aizen, Gin, and Yhwach, the latter being while dual wielding two unwieldly swords, which he could use proficiently without any training.)
* Adept Hand-to-Hand Combatant (As a child he was trained in Karate by the Tatsuki family dojo and was able to beat Tatsuki in a match, who was able to win 2nd place in a nationals tournament with a broken arm, with her heavily implying that Ichigo surpassed her as a martial artist. He is also able to take down thugs, lieutenants, and Sternritters with his hand to hand skills alone.)

**Explosion Manipulation (The Getsuga Tenshō creates AOE explosions when it hits a target.Bleach Chapter 396: THE BITEBleach Chapter 270: WARning)

*Damage Boost (When Ichigo fought the Gillian, despite not being able to cut its leg off, Ichigo created a precursor to Getsuga Tenshō that damaged the Gillian (from toe to head) and it ran away.Bleach Chapter 48: MENOS GRANDE Despite being messed around by Kisuke, Ichigo then implies to Kisuke that with the Getsuga Tenshō he will one shot Kisuke, and Kisuke doesn't deny it. Right after it was used, we see that it pierced through Kisuke's shield and Kisuke states that it would have torn off his arm.Bleach Chapter 67: End of Lessons Against Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez despite not being able to bypass his Hierro at first, Ichigo did more damage with the Getsuga Tenshō. Ulquiorra implied that when Ichigo combined Getsuga Tenshō to his strikes, it increased his AP.Bleach Chapter 342: The Greed Despite being overwhealmed physically by the Bankai, Ichigo is able to damage Gin with Getsuga Tenshō.Bleach Chapter 399: Stroke of Sanity Ulquiorra compares Getsuga Tenshō to Cero Oscuras,Bleach Chapter 346: The Wrath which is 10 times more potent than a normal Cero and is accepted as such. Consistent when Ichigo negated Yammy's Cero Oscuras with his own Getsuga Tenshō.Bleach Chapter 378: Eyes of the Victor)

Range: Extended Melee Range, further with the shockwaves of his attacks, Hundreds of Meters to Kilometers with Getsuga Tenshō, at least Kilometers with Mugetsu, Interdimensional to Universal with Reiatsu (He should be able to shake the three realms of the Bleach cosmology)

Intelligence: Above Average normally. Gifted in combat (At a very young age, Ichigo has trained in karate, sparring against Tatsuki on a daily occasion.Bleach Chapter 19: 6/17 op.3 "memories in the rain"Bleach Chapter 77: My Name is GanjuBleach Chapter 18: 6/17 op.2 "Can't Smile Don't Blame" As he got older, Ichigo gained more street fighting experience. He was shown to grapple opponents to the groundBleach Chapter 426: The Starter2 and beat up 5 thugs at the same with hand to hand combat alone.Bleach Chapter 107: Heat In Trust In the Fullbring arc, Ichigo is able to take on armed thugs with his bare hands alone.Bleach Chapter 424: The Lost Agent During his early days as a Shinigami, he was able to properly use Spirit Ribbons without guidance,Bleach Chapter 8: Chase Chad Around even when becoming a Hollow, Ichigo was able to use this technique to locate his Zanpakuto hidden amongst numerous boxes at once.Bleach Chapter 63: Lesson2-3; Innercircle Breakdown His swordsmanship skills were complimented by experienced fighters like Ikkaku,Bleach Chapter 87: Dancing With Spears and held his own against master swordsmen like Byakuya in his Senkei,Bleach Chapter 165: The Dark Side of Universe 2 Ichigo was even shown getting better at swordsmanship during fights.Bleach Chapter 129: Suspicion [for Assassination] Ichigo’s growth rate allowed him to master Flash Step in a very short period of time.Bleach Chapter 160: Battle On Guillotine Hill Ichigo learned Bankai in 2 and a half days, when it usually takes prodigies 10 years to learn it.Bleach Chapter 120: Shake Hands With GrenadesBleach Chapter 130: Suspicion2 [of Tears]Bleach Chapter 132: Creeping LimitBleach Chapter 133: Memories in the rain2 "the nocturne"Bleach Chapter 137: Surrounding ClutchBleach Chapter 138: Individual ThoughtsBleach Chapter 162: Black Moon Rising Later on in the Arrancar arc, Ichigo was able to improve his usage of the Getsuga Tenshō, such as wrapping it around his Zanpakuto to increasing his overall attack power.Bleach Chapter 342: The Greed He combined a Getsuga with a Gran Rey Cero.Bleach Chapter 677: Horn of Salvation 2 He constantly adapts to his opponents and tends to learn their fighting stylesBleach Chapter 86: Making GoodBleach Chapter 87: Dancing With SpearsBleach Chapter 88: SO UNLUCKY WE AREBleach Chapter 096: BLOODRED CONFLICTBleach Chapter 109 In the Fullbring arc, Ichigo is implied to have gotten rusty in combat, he was still able to learn about his FullbringBleach Chapter 437: Swastika Break and use it effectively in combat,Bleach Chapter 443: Dirty Boots DangersBleach Chapter 444: The Rising and later on, was able to adapt to fighting with his eyes slashed.Bleach Chapter 451: Welcome to Our EXECUTION 4 In the War arc, Ichigo was stated to be unpredictable by Akon, and created a plan to use his other abilities against Yhwach and unlocked Horn of Salvation.Bleach Chapter 676: Horn of Salvation When sensing Kyoka Suigetsu, Ichigo met up with Aizen and was able to instantly figure out the situation, stabbing Yhwach in the back and blew him away with a Getsuga TenshōBleach Chapter 683: The Dark Side of Two World Ends)
Weaknesses: Ichigo is brash and can rush into fights without thinking, and he can also be too merciful or have his powers limited by his lack of fighting spirit. He can only use his Hollow Mask for so long, originally for four to eleven seconds. Using Mugetsu will strip him of all his Shinigami powers and cause him to fall unconscious for a month
Notable Attacks and Techniques:	Notable Attacks and Techniques:
: An application of Hohō used by Shinigami, allowing for high-speed movement, much faster than the eye can follow, used in combat and travel, typically in short bursts. The skill can be summarized as taking the least amount of steps to reach point B from point A. While he makes skillful use of Flash Step, Ichigo is not particularly well-versed in the specifics of the technique and his use of it is fairly straightforward.
: Ichigo's Zanpakutō, which in its original, unreleased state, took the form of a very oversized katana, thanks to his immense but poorly-controlled spiritual power. Because of this, the sword itself was rather weak at this point, and it is more a manifestation of Rukia's deprived spiritual energy than Ichigo's. Once he learns its name, Ichigo's Zanpakutō stays in a constant released state due to his immense power.
Pseudo Zanpakutō:
: After first being released, Zangetsu appeared as a massive, knife-like blade with no formal hilt, only a cloth-wrapped tang. In this form, Zangetsu is about as tall as Ichigo, and he can wield it by the cloth to swing and throw it opponents like a flail, though he rarely does this. When he reclaims his Shinigami powers and combines them with his Fullbring abilities, Zangetsu's appearance shifts, giving it a more proper hilt and a length of chain at the bottom.
*: Ichigo's signature attack, a highly condensed blast of spiritual pressure released from the tip of the blade with a slash, taking the form of a crescent as it rushes forwards, or even an omnidirectional burst. Though Ichigo uses this ability several times before finding out its name, once he does, its power is greatly enhanced.
GetsugaTenshō332.gif|Getsuga Tenshō
: The ultimate and final release to a Zanpakutō. The difference in power between Shikai and Bankai is generally around 5-10 times more powerful. Even though Bankai is the final stage of a Zanpakutō, it does not mean the Shinigami's growth ends there. A Bankai, especially one that has been recently obtained, can evolve even further as its Shinigami also strengthens. 
*: Ichigo's Bankai is activated by pointing his Zanpakutō outwards and allowing its cloth to wrap around his arm, Ichigo's Tensa Zangetsu is very out of the ordinary for a Bankai. It shrinks Ichigo's normally massive sword down to a daitō, a long sword, with a black blade, focusing and compressing all of its power for use in hyper-speed combat. The appearance of his Bankai shifts after his training in the Dangai, covering his right hand with a black glove and wrapping its chain all around his arm.
** : The more powerful Getsuga Tenshō utilized by Ichigo in this state, now colored black. Ichigo can utilize it with more control than before, controlling its trajectory, keeping it within his blade to enhance the power of his swings, or firing it from the tip as a bullet.
Kuroi Getsuga Tensho.gif|Black Getsuga Tenshō
: The ultimate technique of Ichigo's Pseudo Bankai, in which he becomes one with itself. Its name, the Final Getsuga Tenshō reflects its cost - after using it, Ichigo will lose all of his Shinigami powers. While the ability is active, Ichigo's hair turns black and grows to waist-length, while his body is wrapped in blue-grey bandages.
SaigoNoGetsugaTenshō.gif|Saigo no Getsuga Tenshō
*: Ichigo manifests a black blade from his spiritual energy and swings it at his target, bringing with it a massive veil of black energy that erupts upwards, completely consuming them and the landscape. After this, Ichigo will lose the transformation and quickly fall unconscious, awakening a month later with only a fragment of his powers, which will quickly dwindle to nothing, but he slowly regained them over the next two years.
Mugetsu.gif|Mugetsu
: Thanks to White, Ichigo was born with the powers of a Hollow, which he can channel in the form of a skull-like Hollow mask to greatly increase his capabilities. Originally, he could not control this transformation and would subconsciously produce the mask to shield himself from attacks. As well he would be possessed by his inner Hollow if he fell unconscious, but after his training with the Visored, he gained more control over the transformation. Still, in particularly dire circumstances, his inner Hollow may take control, and Ichigo may enter a form where he loses all sense of reason.
Hollow Mask: The Hollow mask was originally a sign of Ichigo's possession by his inner Hollow, but after his training with the Visored, it merely indicates he is utilizing his Hollow powers. To access his inner Hollow's power, Ichigo must summon the mask onto his face. He normally does this by placing one of his hands over his face and concentrating spiritual matter on it to manifest the mask (previously, it had appeared on its own before he mastered the Hollow within him), summoning the mask in a "ripping" fashion. With the mask in place, Ichigo's eyes irises become yellow, and he has black sclera and pupils. His voice has a slight Hollow echo to it. With the mask, he gains access to increased physical enhancements. This helps in combat in several ways, most noticeably being that it makes it easier for him to fight through severe injuries.
Ichigo Masked.jpg|1st Hollow Mask
Ep296 Ichigo 2nd Mask.jpg|2nd Hollow Mask
*Augmented : When Ichigo wears his mask, the power, speed, blast area, force, and size of the Getsuga Tenshō become drastically augmented, to the point of seriously harming a foe. When used with his Bankai and Hollow mask in combination, his Getsuga Tenshō is stated to be his ultimate attack.
Augmented Getsuga Tensho.gif|Augmented Getsuga Tenshō
Full Hollow Form: When Zangetsu takes full possession of Ichigo's body, the body undergoes a full transformation into a Hollow creature. His mask resembles a Human skull, complete with a jaw joint and rounded forehead, and has dark red stripes on the left side. Unlike normal Hollows, this form used an actual weapon, using Ichigo's Zanpakutō. Ichigo later has his body taken over by Zangetsu once again. This time, the full transformation is very physically different in appearance and far more powerful than the previous one. In this form, Ichigo has long straight hair, reaching down to his waist, and a Hollow hole, smaller than his previous one, decorated with markings stretching from the hole across his chest and shoulders. In this new form, he has a different Hollow mask. It covers Ichigo's entire head, and its markings are different, for it has four spike-shaped marks, two of them stopping by the forehead and the other two stretching past the eyes and teeth, going past his chin and joining with the marks on his chest. The mask features two long forward-pointing horns, with black strips extending from their center towards the tips.
Ep125ZangetsuHollowForm.png|1st Full Hollow Form
Ep271ZangetsuNewHollowForm.png|2nd Full Hollow Form
*: The signature attack of Hollows, and one utilized by the Arrancar and Visored as well, a powerful blast of concentrated spiritual energy fired like a laser. Ichigo's version of the cero is red and is extremely powerful.
Cero125.gif|1st Cero
Cero271.gif|2nd Cero
*: A defensive technique used by Arrancar that toughens their skin by reinforcing it with condensed Reiryoku, allowing an Arrancar to confront an armed Shinigami with their bare hands. All Arrancar use this ability in some form to gain their supernatural toughness, but even an exceptionally powerful Hierro can be bypassed by focusing one's Reiryoku to a finer, sharper point.
*: An ability possessed by most Hollows, which allows them to rapidly recover from wounds. Abandoned by most Hollow and Arrancar in favor of more power, Ichigo retains the ability in his full Hollow form, proving capable of quickly regenerating lost limbs and even a hole in his chest, which would make it superior to the regenerative abilities of most others, as they cannot heal from serious organ damage.
HighSpeedRegeneration124.gif|High-Speed Regeneration
*: A technique used by Arrancar that allows for high-speed movement, effectively analogous to the Flash Step used by Shinigami, and used in bursts to traverse distances quickly and fight at these high speeds.
