Fans eagerly anticipated the release of their favorite anime, only to be surprised by a fan animation featuring Naruto facing off against Ichigo. The epic battle showcased both characters transforming into their most powerful forms.

Eventually, Ichigo transformed into his True Bankai form. It is important to mention that this form has not been shown in the anime yet.
This is the ultimate form that Ichigo achieves before defeating Yhwach in the Thousand-Year Blood War Arc. Through fan animations, viewers were able to get an idea of how this form could potentially look once it is animated.
The fan animation ended with the Shinobi launching a Rasenshuriken at Ichigo as the Shinigami could be seen countering it with his Zanpakuto.

Some fans were so impressed by the fan animation that they considered it the best they had ever seen. They were amazed to find out that it was created by a fan and not by a professional animation company.
