Wow... obviously an apology will go nowhere in this particular forum, but I'll give it a go (again).

I frequent several Bleach related forums. Several. This is, quite literally, the first time I failed to read up on all the rules/stickies for a given forum. Though I didn't create a spoiler topic, (as would be against the rules in Mut@t@'s sticky) I did, apparently, include "spoiler" content. My confusion lie in the fact that I saw several Manga related threads/topics and was just ignorant to the purity of these particular forums towards the anime. Ignorance is not an excuse and for that, I apologize that my post may have ruined the next few episodes for some.

I would also like to point out that another person's post was removed as well (the person that warned me my post was a violation of spoiler rules). I have no idea why his was deleted as it gave no such spoilers.

It should go without saying, but as this is a fictional story, and anime/manga at that, it can be assumed that the hero will win. And should he/she lose any given fight, a rematch is sure to follow (and very quickly in most cases) where he/she becomes the victor. So I don't feel my comment saying Ichigo would defeat anyone (regardless of level) is a spoiler. I will even go so far as to say that if Ichigo were to be pitted in a fight with the Commander, he would somehow win as that is the nature of anime/manga. I gave no details for any of his fights that have been seen in the manga. Speculation and theory about shinigami/hollows are my own based on episodes already seen. If my post ruined the series for you, I would be very surprised, but still apologetic.

Terracosmo: I ruined the next 30 episodes for you? Irrational. However, I accept your eternal gratitude. I imagine you meant that sarcastically, but the ludicrous emotion displayed in your post makes me have little respect for your intellect. I "spoiled" the identity of one character (not even plot related) and said Ichigo wins fights (again, not really plot related). Remove the "spoilers" I mentioned from the entire storyline and it affects nothing in the storyline.

By the way - Anakin Skywalker becomes Darth Vadar.
