Ichigo Kurosaki's Rise

A mask symmetrical to the one on Ulquiorra's left half appeared over the right side of his head as well. His Arrancar uniform transformed into a long robe, a pair of enormous black wings grew from his back, and he held a lightsword in his right hand.

"No." Ulquiorra slowly shook his head. "If you really want to compare it, it would be a Soul Reaper's Bankai."
