Second idea:
Soul reapers (when they die) don't get reborn. Soul cutters do.
That would work with Ichigo having Kaien's zanpakutou, which would lead to an interesting reaction from poor Rukia (I think there's been a fic that did that).
I recall an old story with just that premise (Ichigo with Nejibana). Don't know if it was ever completed, or even if it advanced past a couple chapters.

New (shadow of an) Idea: Ozpin from RWBY replaces Urahara as the eccentric mentor. Or the other way around: Beacon with Kisuke as Headmaster. :)

So for a Bleach story of mine that is absolutely dead, I was going to give Ichigo an entirely new Zanpakuto as opposed to Zangetsu. However, it would still follow the trend of his and Isshin's Zanpakutos naming convention: Shingetsu, which as far as I can tell is the correct Japanese term for a new moon.

It would come with its own activation phrase too.

"Plunge the world into absolute darkness: Shingetsu!"

What if Ichigo had, for whatever reason, dyed his hair black before going into Seireitei?

It would make for some amusing scenes as literally everybody confuses him even more for Kaien.

Hoping to develop something of an idea (was playing the last of us).

So, basically. Ichigo never met Rukia, his house was actually protected by Isshin and Urahara, because here they are not irresponsible ex-captains that want to put the destiny of the reality on the hands of a teenager. So no hollow attack, Rukia goes around does her thing and leaves. Added to that given that Ywach can see the future, he doesn't want the only person who could kill him to awaken his powers, the quincy king even cares in his own way for Ichigo.

So Ichigo doesn't awaken his powers and events conspire to prevent him becoming a Shinigami. Shit still goes down, Orihime dies by Sora's hand, Chad dies with killer hollow, Tatsuki and friends die on the fake Karakura arc, the city is almost nuked by Aizen, Aizen kills Yamamoto but is prevented from creating the king's key by either Urahara or Isshin.

Ginjo happens on the backyard and then we have the Ywach, thing, he ascends, kills everyone and start destroying everything, here should the story begin. While Isshin and all the other people manage to stop Ywach by some convulted plan, maybe with Uryu arrow or something, Ywach almost destroyed everything, and that includes the mortal world. The Earth was send decades to the past, with earthquakes, disasters, etc... The result is a semi post apocalyptic world with hundred of thousands dying, not receiving Konso and becoming Hollows, years of famine and sickness with very few Shinigami, almost no Quincy and ravenous monsters almost every one kind of knows are there but very few can see.

Years after we have a lot of Fullbrings, a world that kind of is trying to rebuild itself and then we have Old man Ichigo, rugged badass with strange powers that he devolped to try and protect his sisters and the very few people he actually care about, probably the most powerful Fullbring, with some others skills (quincy things) roaming the world trying hard to survive after having to send his sisters to the after life (tentative if he can actually do Konso or not, for extra edginess maybe Yuzu and Karin ended becoming a Hollow) with a Yandere arrancar Orihime following him around. While the soul society on the brink of being destroyed is trying to rise up, because Ywach wasn't as dead as people wanted.

So those would be the basics, kind of playing around with a hogyoku reincarnated as a human girl that humans find can destroy the monsters with her mere presence, with Ichigo forced to take care of her, Aizen maybe reincarnating between the years, too powerful to actually die, the realities barely existing by a thread, with Urahara wanting to use Ichigo as the next king only to find a possible remplace in the Hogyoku girl and the Oldman Ichigo trying to protect the girl, discovering his father was alive and never went to help him or his sisters.

So any ideas or thoughts would be apreciated

I like the idea of badass Old Man Ichigo. It's a neat idea, especially the Fullbrings being more prominent. I can see Seireitei watching and waiting to see if they need to pull another purge, just in case. Or perhaps they'r e caught off-guard, when they finally manage to open a gate to a more populated area with powered people. I'd love to see this written out.

Still working in the old man Ichigo idea, but a project IRL showed it’s ugly face and as daddy likes to eat and the kids want too many games for their own good I only get to work with it a few hours in the weekends, just wondering a question that some one asked in twitter, hoping to get some answers, kind of too bias to actually answer this one but:

If you take Ichigo pre Dangai training, assuming he’s not full of despair and put him in Naruto world how far does he go? I mean if he took Naruto’s place how far he goes before he needs to get a power up or a new shonen transformation?

Was there any specific reason that the Hogyoku had to be sealed specifically inside of Rukia Kuchiki's gigai? As opposed to any other shinigami?

I'm wondering about this, because in that case...Isshin could have had the Hogyoku sealed in with him. Or one of the Vizards could have taken one for the team and decided to abandon his or her spiritual power and permanently lock away the Hogyoku.

...I think Urahara sealed it into a random Rukongai kid/baby that ended up becoming a Shinigami, unexpectedly. As in, it happened decades or over a century before most people think.

Edit: it fits. Urahara had to run away after the hollowifications Aizen had blamed on him. As he made his preparations for his life on the run, he had few options and little time to decide for what to do with the Hougyoku. He found a random toddler/kid in Rukongai who, while she had some Spiritual Energy, just enough to house the Orb without collapsing... she didn't have huge-noticeable amounts.

A long time after, he finds out that the same kid is a Shinigami. Aizen could find out at any time (he actually has known for a while, or at least strongly suspected). Thus, Urahara hatches another desperate plan: a plan to drain Rukia of her Spiritual power (using that Gigai) to make her all but impossible to track when she ends up in Karakura under suspicious circumstances which may or may not bring her to Aizen's attention (spoiler: he knew already and was moving the strings, OFC).

Admiration is Furthest from Understanding

-----

Sousuke had suffered a lot of indignities in his life -lives-, but this- this….

"Boy! Stop bothering Dudley and start earning your keep!" The foolish woman said in her shrill voice, while 'Dudley' kept poking Sousuke, likely in hopes of provoking a reaction out of him.

Sousuke hadn't got a full grasp of the overall situation just yet; as such, any plans meant to last longer than a week were doomed to failure. On the other hand…. "No," Sousuke said, throwing the duster down on the floor.

That detestable woman paused for a few moments, obviously taken aback. Sousuke allowed himself a visible sneer – a plan going awry was no reason to pause for longer than half a second, if that. That had been Sousuke's secret in his previous life: even when plans had gone wrong, everything stayed on track. Either because Sousuke had made sure to make several contingency plans or because he could adjust them on the fly while keeping the appearance of control.

-----

Sousuke -Harry, as people kept reminding him- was stood in front of the most ornate mirror he had ever seen, and he had seen a lot of such excesses from the nobles of Soul Society.

Despite himself, his gaze strayed to the main part, only to see-

Is that Ichigo Kurosaki?

The orange-haired Shinigami Substitute was behind Sousuke's reflection and had a hand on that Sousuke's shoulder -Sousuke, as he had been Before, except with his current colour of eyes, green, strangely- and was mouthing something. Next to Sousuke, with his reflection's arm around her waist was a woman who somewhat resembled both Urahara Kisuke and Shihouin Yoruichi, with her rather dark skin, cat-like eyes and dirty blond hair.

Looking closer, Sousuke realised that both were mouthing the same sentence: 'It doesn't have to be lonely at the top'.

Shuddering, Sousuke made a fist and punched the mirror. Again and again and-

"Harry!?" An elderly-sounding voice said, alarm in their tone.

Frankly, it was all but impossible to escape the old man's -Dumbledore's- grasp on his wrist. Absently, Sousuke commended the man's skills while also chiding himself for not noticing his presence. For the n-th time, Sousuke wished for access to his Reiatsu. Unfortunately, something was blocking his ability to use it, though he was still able to see all manner of spirits, not just the imprints wizards called ghosts.

"Young man- Harry," Dumbledore said, "what could have caused this violent reaction? The Mirror of Erised is a dangerous artifact, yes-"

Sousuke took a deep breath in and held it, the bleeding knuckles barely meriting a glance. Erised; Desire backwards. I show not your face, but your heart's desire. He could work with that. He said, "It's nothing, Sir. Just the fleeting reflections of something that could never be; will never be," smiling at Dumbledore.

Noticing some alarm in Dumbledore's face, Sousuke realised that his usual reassuring smile had only had the opposite effect on the man. As such, he let a decent portion of his true emotions show on his face, not bothering to ponder why Dumbledore had reacted like this just yet. He said, "Companionship; acceptance. Only a reflection of the moon on the water for me, I'm afraid. No matter how much I might crave those things, I might as well be trying to catch the moon in my teeth," paraphrasing an old saying from the Soul Society.

Dumbledore's expression turned softer. He said, "Harry, do you not have so many fans among the student body? Has Ms. Granger not attached herself to you, out of admiration?"

Sousuke adjusted his glasses, which were actually prescription spectacles this life around, unfortunately. At the same time, he said, "Admiration is the furthest thing from understanding, Professor Dumbledore. My fame only underscores this," letting the man get a momentary glimpse of the full force of Sousuke's frustration.

That's a pretty neat blurb. I've talked a little bit years ago about how I wish crossovers would move away from trying to shove main character into main character, and use side characters more where it fits. Like, for something relevant to Bleach, having that Second Mizukage guy from Naruto who trolled everyone with illusions show up in Soul Society as an Aizen foil :p. The gold standard that I still haven't written is a MLP x Dr Strange crossover that uses Trixie instead of Twilight Sparkle.

I remember enough of Bleach to understand what Aizen refers to when he talks to Dumbledore, though it does sound well beyond the level of what a supposed 11-year-old would say. It's sort of implied, but I'm guessing Aizen was incarnated into Harry's body at some point in his childhood, or awoke his reincarnated memories, instead of being aware from the get go from birth.

Also, since you use 'Sousuke' instead of Aizen, I was thinking this was Sousuke Sagara for the first paragraphs and wondering if we were going to get a training-from-hell scene :D

Thanks! Yes, he awoke his reincarnated memories or something like that, the way I'm thinking.

I thought of Full Metal Panic, myself. I couldn't see even Aizen referring to himself by his family name, though, which is why he uses 'Sousuke'.
 
I don't know if this has ever come up -- it probably has -- if so, my bad.

Bankai seems to wrap the shinigami in the essence of their zanpakuto's powers.

Aizen's zanpakuto shikai -- "kyoukasuigetsu" -- is a ref to a proverb which basically means "the moon reflected in water, or a flower in the mirror, are things that are seen but not held", which has connotations about resisting temptation or the power of illusions.

Kyoukasuigetsu in shikai deceives all your senses to be what Aizen wants you to believe. In bankai it makes him a goddamn intangible illusion.

Yep, yep.
