Could Uryu's "special" trait be his blood?

When asked how exactly Uryu survived the Aushwalen, Kubo stated he was simply special. However, as of the end of cour 3, we have been given more hints as to how exaclty he survived. Whether his mother saved him somehow as he was helpless on the ground, or he activated some sort of power immediately as the scene shifted towards a puddle reflecting an unknown light source next to aushwalen.

My idea is basically that through Uryu's blood alone, can he fire the Silver arrow that temporarily disables Yhwach's powers. Ryuken says it should be Uryu to fire the arrow from a sentimental stand point, but I prefer the idea that there could be a concrete reason for Uryu having to shoot the arrow, similar to how Yhwach needed Ichigo's unique blood to kill the Soul King.

Any possibilties of a CYFOW anime series adaptation after TYBW??

Are there any possibilties of the novel CYFOW being adapted into anime after TYBW Cour 4??

The TYBW anime series has been clearly a huge success critically and audience wise, and people crave for more.

Why Shueisha and Pierrot wouldn't wanna do it or consider it?

Do you think it's possible?

Thoughts?

To some extent, Ryuken saying that there is no profit in being a Quincy makes sense.

From the moment they were born, they were a doomed race. I mean think about it for a sec.

Quincies by nature make them easy bait for any Hollows. Imagine what it's like for a Quincy that doesn't know they have spiritual powers or can't defend themselves. They're either are completely consumed or survive the attack but eventually die from soul suicide.

Even ones that know that they are Quincy and take the offensive against Hollows. Holllows are still a danger. They have to risk their very souls just to wipe beings that can poison them with a single injury.

Then there are the Shinigami who will more likely want to kill or capture you because you're a danger to stability of the world. Imagine being told that you can't defend yourself or someone will be forced to kill you instead. Even after the massacre, most Shinigami didn't care whether you lived or died, so as long as you didn't warrant their attention.

Let's not forget Yhwach, the so called father of all Quincies that sees his kind as nothing more than cannon fodder. If he so chooses, he can just decide to steal your power because it originally belonged to him.

When you think about it, Yhwach totally made the Quincy the way they are just to spite the Soul King. Their ability to completely erase the existence of a Hollows actively puts the rest of the universe under the threat of collapse. It's almost as if Yhwach is spitting in the face of the balance that the Soul King had fought to maintain.

Honestly, I think they made the right call making Retsu Unohana a Kenpachi

The reason I say that is because that earlier in the series, Retsu Unohana, while still a likeable character, was sorta lacking in personality or depth and risks needed to be taken with the character, so I think they made the right call to give her an arc by revealing her to be the first Kenpachi, otherwise she would've just been one-dimensional throughtout the entire series if she stayed that nice, goody-two shoes woman she was initially portrayed as when she was introduced. What do the rest of you guys think of the plot twist of her being the OG Kenpachi?
