Top eleven bankai ( spoilers))

Self-explanatory ngl this is my top ten favorite bankai! Judged by design and power and MY OPINION! Now, to start us off, I will have an honorable mention of rukia's Hakka no Togame it was so beautiful and great to behold the anime did it justice however I wish we got to see more of it Heck if we did it would 100% be on the list but for now it will sit at 11/just an mention! Anyway, to the next part of the list

Number 10! Belonging to our fox captain good old doggy! Sajin komamaru! I love him he is one of my favorite captains, and I always digged his bankai! It's a shame it's not used as much, ngl it was such a cool concept that kinds got wasted for me would 100% would have wanted it in more fights for sure but hey I won't complain about it!

Number 9. Now this one is so underrated to me but I love it so still that being Kamishini no Kara (( or in English the god killing spear )) yes ik its simple but it's simple power with the mins of gin worked oh so beautifully I loved how like a snake it hides perfectly under his sleeves and just shoots out at rapid speed even with a normal blade gin was clowning ichigo (( granted ichigo was hurt and not in a great mindset)) not to mention his bankai basically (( and big spoilers))...........................

..........................KILLED aizen with his special move after no one else could touch him only reason aizen lived was bullcrap plot but at the same time tho I love it to death it wasn't used all that much and that made me sad to see even tho I really enjoyed it personally I wish we seen him use it more then what we actually did sadly but still a good one!

Number 8 may shock a few people actually because no on talks about it as it was only used once but it left that big of an impression on me to keep it as one of my favs that being Tsuishiki: Enma Kōrogi aka in English bell bug closing ceremony field cricket used by kaname tosen I really dig how it worked Making a dome in which he is fully active and functional and has the upper hand pretty much the entire time you can't feel can't see can't hear can't smell all your senses are gone including sight your screwed! Yes he lost when he used it making it seem useless BUTTTTT it was zarak he used it on immediately making it fair how he lost zaraki is just a beast you can't beat no Matter what lol it was soo cool to me from the powers to the coloring everything just sad he onlt used it once and never again would have loved to seen vizard him use it against komamura and his giant bankai or before but I digress once again we were robbed of it being cooler then what it was left at making it like gin tho I love it it goes low as I wish we saw it used more.

Number 7.this bankai is simple and then again makes it stand out more to me this is the bankai belonging to both former and current 9th sqaud captain the good ol Tekken Tachikaze aka iron fist earth- severing-wind used by kensei first of the vizards and first fighter of wonderweiss that he maybe lost? Unknown really but I loved how it looks and how it uses wind per say it doesn't use it like most wind s he actually compressed it and but it hits with that built up pressure and unreleased said pressure to hit making him hit you mutiple times with just a single punch thanks to how much wind he absorbs and hit with way stronger force making him quite a deadly one on one fighter I really wish it was used more and in a good light it does more then the last 2 at least tho so it gets higher and tbh I liked it so much it was once my top 3 when I was going through bleach but as you can tell 6 more have ed it up..SPEAKING OF WHICH!

number 6! This bankai is a bit underrated for me mainly because he can't kill you without help with it, but this is still great, BUT BIG WARNING WARNING are like LIGHT NOVEL SPOILERS! READ AT YOUR OWN RISKS! Shuhei hisagi's bankai lol he links him with his opponent making both him and his opponent immortal even makes their spirit energy equal heance why he needs a freind there to beat his enemy but I love it so cool! I hope it shows up in the anime or the future of bleach.

Number 5. Big spoilers for final arc BIG SPOILERS FOR FINAL ARC this bankai is that of captain of the first squad his name his well you know Yamamoto by fair my favorite fire power in all of anime history Zanka no Tachi  or in English "Blade of Ember" it follows the directions of the com north beingna insta kill move that has range east erases things via up close like north west is a defense that's always on him erasing what comes into with it and finally my favorite South he points down and summons a army if those he killed to fight for him from their ashes pretty cool ngl! Now number 4!

Number 4! Also, BIG SPOILERS FOR THE MANGA STOP AT YOUR time! This belongs to the worst criminal in soul society history   the bankai ...called minazuki used by retsu unohana the first kenpachi! The presentation of it is just so beautifully done, and tho its power is kind of vague. I can't wait for when it comes in so great and amazing to me reaked with acid like blood! I loved it! And the fight with zaraki! Tho can't say much unit we know more about it.

Number 3. This bankai is one people wanted to see for so long even strrak wanted it yep the bankai of many's favorites captain shunsui his bankai's name is Katen Kyōkotsu: Karamatsu Shinju or in English Bones of Heavenly Blooming Madness his bankai has 4 acts and it acts as a strong force trapping him and his foe in a story of tragic love very cool and fits his theme it was amazing tho I didn't like the outcome of the battle he used it on.

Number 2- Now I love this bankai because it is sound base it's rose's Kinshara Butōdan (金沙羅舞踏団, Golden Sal Tree Dancing Troupe; Viz "Golden Shala Dance Troupe its so creative and how it works even more so from looks great from power just mwah amazing it fits him so well injust wish he was done justice with it hopefully we may see it again where he can get a rare w( p.s he should have won against mask wasted win for vizards)

Now my number one - my favorite bankai of all time - is shinji's Sakashima Yokoshima Happōfusagari it's perfect it fits him, and it looks great the power is broken- for the longest time before I saw it I always wondered what would his bankai even do? Boost the shikai? Flip the foes best sense? Flip his senses with the foes? Nope! It does smth on a wider scale, and I love it it flips your view of friend or foe, and I ADORE IT it fits him so well to me- I couldn't think of a better one off the top of my head personally anyway this was my list let me know what you all think and share your thoughts bye bye!
