Ikkaku Madarame, not unlike his Captain Kenpachi, loves to fight and is always trying ti improve his skills and strength.
He’s a man of honour and can be an aggressive fighter. And he’s not one to hold back.
This is reflected in his personality, quotes, life lessons, and his role in Bleach as a supporting character.
Let’s share his best quotes for fans of the Bleach series.
Here’s a list.
The Greatest Ikkaku Quotes From Bleach:
“Damn… How could I not die after losing so much blood! What a shame to get saved by the enemy. Damn, if only I could move, I would kill you right now!”
“I just can’t understand. Even though there’s a fair amount of distance between us, when two people are engaged in a fight, only a rookie would remove a hand from his sword.”
“You’re too soft, Ichigo. You really think you’re gonna win a fight like this without taking any lives? Finish them off properly! That’s how you show respect to the enemy who started this battle.”
“I was never interested in Kidō in the first place. Unlike you, my mom didn’t make me a do-it-all kind of guy at birth.”
“No man’s life is worth more than another! If you’re gonna put your life on the line, you do it as equals! I don’t care if you’re brothers, or master and apprentice, or whatever! You should only die for a guy who’d die for you! There’s nothing honorable about throwing your life away as though it’s nothing! That’s just showing off like a kid.”
“Cut the flattery. You can stop your admiration. It’s only natural to show our true levels of Reiatsu. Whether it is worthy of praise is something you will learn after you die.”
“You sure have a different way of getting down to business. ‘To announce your name and rank’ is a custom taught to us when we learn how to fight. It’s known as the last courtesy. If a person dies in combat, at least you get to know the name of the one that brought death to you. Third Seat of Zaraki’s Division, Ikkaku Madarame. As for the lowlifes who ignore this etiquette, I simply kill them after they know who did them in.”
“What are you talking about? We’re still fighting! One of us will die before it’s over! I, Ikkaku Madarame, 3rd Seat of Zaraki’s Division, will never walk away from a fight like a coward!”
“Idiot. I told you long ago when I taught you how to fight, didn’t I? That I have no intention of telling anyone besides you and Yumichika, that I have Bankai. If it got out that I can use Bankai, there’d be others besides you telling me to become a captain. I have no intention of becoming a captain. Becoming a captain would mean that I can’t fight under Captain Zaraki. If you wish to surpass Captain Byakuya Kuchiki, then I only have one wish. To fight and die under that man’s command.”
