Bankai

=Bankai in Bleach=

In general, Bankai is the last release and manifestation of the true weapon form of a Zanpakutou.

Bankai may enhance the users attributes or put in a complete new form of manifestation...

=Bankai on Legend Of Bleach=

The Bankai itself does pump up the user and helps him fight, hence the different aspects are enforced by different types. For instance, "power" aspect increases your attack by 80%, which relies on strength.

Getting Bankai
You need to have at least 25 final tests taken to get the preparation at Urahara for your Zanpakutou. Once you are there, you have to "buy" your way up to level 8. There is a small chance that you succeed - so basically have enough gold with you there. You will not die in this kind of training.

Level 9 will be achieved by paying gems to Tessai - who will then ready your final challenge. You will only have to pay once - regardless of your success or not. In the last test - you may (and will possibly) die.

Now, to get to the final level, you have to fight your Bankai in its true from.

After that, you should rush to your master (Train Inner Self). He/she will then give you time to meditate and name your new bankai release.
