![]() ![]() ![]() Kenpachi names her Yachiru after asking her if she has a name, and in Episode 40 of the anime after being "beaten" by Ichigo, Kenpachi tries to speak to his Zanpakuto because he wants to get stronger -and Yachiru answers him. Yachiru's backstory is that -she was a baby with no name or memory crawling alone in the woods while Kenpachi was fighting, and the first thing she remembers is blood. Episode 40, in combination with how Kenpachi's Bankai is achieved and the things he says about Yachiru giving him directions after her disappearance -really- nails home the idea that Yachiru is actually Kenpachi's Zanpakuto. I'd bet all the marbles that she -is- simply Kenpachi's Zanpakuto made manifest by his sheer overwhelming spiritual power and loneliness.
