High Intellect: Arguably the most fearsome trait of Aizen is
his tremendous intellect. He is well-versed in the history, strategy,
tactics of the Soul Society, and is privy to knowledge previously
unknown to many, such as knowing of the existence of the ōken, as well as the obscure method in which to make one.^[57]
He has also created several hollows and Arrancar while being able to
avoid arousing any suspicion from most of his fellow Shinigami, most
likely due to his Zanpakutō's illusionary abilities.^[58][59]
He also, for over 110 years, had been engaging in experiments that
involved unique and highly dangerous manipulations of spirit energy and
spirit particles. His most startling experiment involves the
Hollowfication of Shinigami, something unseen before and still unknown
to have ever taken place again.^[60] He has an innate knowledge of the Hōgyoku, rivalling that of its creator, Kisuke Urahara, even the extent required for him to destroy it.^[61][62]
Master Manipulator: Throughout the series since his
public betrayal of the Soul Society, he has shown himself to be a very
crafty and cunning man. The most noticeable trait is his ability to
deceive and manipulate others around them in multiple manners. For
years, he was effectively able to convince everyone around him that he
was a kind-hearted man with the best intentions for the Soul Society,
while still performing horrific actions.^[63][64]
He has a great talent for analyzing and observing everything in his
presence, allowing him to quickly understand a person's pattern of
thinking and better manipulate them. He is also a powerful strategist,
capable of formulating well-thought-out plans several steps ahead of
others. These plans are incredibly involved and detailed, and are
planned-out with the long term in mind, making them seem slightly
convoluted. His most well known plan spans over 110 years, a great
accomplishment given that it required moving people around like pieces
on a chessboard, as well as making sure they played the role he had
planned out for them.^[65][66][67]
He is masterful when it comes to "plans within plans," such as
kidnapping Orihime, allowing him to use her abilities to extend the
shelf life of the Hōgyoku, and to trap the Ryōka and 4 Captains after
the departure of Gin, Tōsen and himself in Hueco Mundo, making it
easier for him to accomplish the ends of his first plan, to create the ōken and gain access to the Royal Dimension.^[68][69]
Master Tactician: He has also shown himself as a powerful
and flexible tactician, capable of adjusting seamlessly to any given
combat situation. Though it can be said that the majority of his
tactics rely heavily on his Zanpakutō's special ability, there are few
better tactics than manipulating all the senses of your opponents,
making it easier for one to attack.^[70][71]

Aizen using Hadō #90: Kurohitsugi (Black Coffin).



Kidō Master:
Aizen has a great mastery at using Kidō spells. He is skilled enough to
use Kidō without the use of their incantation; he used the Black Coffin
(ranked 90) spell, and even though he did not control it entirely
(utilizing only a third of the spell's original strength), it was
sufficient enough to disable fellow Captain Sajin Komamura.^[72] He has even used the Splitting Void (ranked 81) spell to block another Kidō attack by Tessai Tsukabishi,
who was Captain of the Kidō Corps and reasonably the most proficient
Kidō master in the Soul Society at the time, while Aizen himself was
only a lieutenant.^[73]
Enhanced Strength: He is powerful enough to stop Ichigo's Bankai with just one index finger (albeit Ichigo was already battle-worn from fighting Byakuya Kuchiki) and almost cut him in half with a single swing of a sword. He also stopped Renji's Shikai
with his bare hand and broke it with one swing, injuring Renji in the
process. He was even able to stop Komamura's giant blade with his bare
hand, proving his strength was more than enough to combat someone of
his same level.^[74][75][76]
Immense Spiritual Power: Even by captain-level standards, Aizen has shown to have tremendous spiritual energy. Marechiyo Ōmaeda commented that Aizen's very presence is monstrously overwhelming.^[77] A hint to his actual level of spirit power is given when he turns Wonderweiss Margera into an Arrancar; before activating the Hōgyoku,
and states that despite its half-awakened state, it can be fully
activated when temporarily fusing with someone with twice as much
spiritual power (referring to himself) as an average captain-level
Shinigami.^[78] The force of Aizen's spiritual power is also great enough to, without any visible effort, bring the 6th Espada to his knees^[79]. He has commented that it takes a lot for him not to "crush an ant" (referring to Renji) in his path. He also claims that he is more powerful then all of the Espada.^[80]
Master Swordsmanship Specialist:
While the full extent of his prowess has yet to be known, he has
demonstrated the ability to effortlessly fight back an opponent's
Shikai with his own blade still sealed. He has also demonstrated the
ability to perform tremendously powerful and precise strikes, capable
of striking through very sturdy targets, such as Renji's Shikai^[81] and Harribel's Hierro.
Flash Steps Master: He is perceived to be so fast that one cannot discern even being attacked by him until after it has taken place.^[82] Though it's questionable if he is as fast as Yoruichi Shihōin or Soifon,
especially seeing as they both caught him before he was able to
unsheathe his sword to engage in battle before his escape from the Soul
Society.^[83]

Zanpakutō


Aizen revealing his Zanpakutō, Kyōka Suigetsu.



Kyōka Suigetsu (鏡花水月, Mirror Flower, Water Moon): In its sealed form, it resembles a normal katana.
The only decoration is the crossguard, which is a hexagon instead of a
rectangle. The two sides parallel to the blade are long, whereas the
four sides above and below the blade are shortened, making it into
almost a diamond or prism-like shape. It has a green handle.

• Shikai: The release command is "Shatter" (砕けろ, kudakero) and is used to both activate and deactivate it.^[84]The name Kyōka Suigetsu
  hints at its illusionary properties; the moon reflected in water and a
  flower in a mirror are things that can be seen but not held. It is a
  Chinese saying for seeing and desiring something that is a dream that
  cannot be easily grasped in hand, teaching people about temptations.
  

Aizen using Kyōka Suigetsu's hypnotic abilities.



Shikai Special Ability: Kyōka Suigetsu's Shikai ability is Complete Hypnosis (完全催眠, kanzen saimin). ^[85]
It controls the five senses to the point that it can make the target
misinterpret another person's form, shape, mass, feel and smell to be
that of the enemy. The initiation condition for the hypnosis is
to show the enemy the release of Kyōka Suigetsu. After seeing it just
once, that person will completely succumb to the hypnosis. After that,
every time it is released, that person will become Aizen's unwilling
slave. Since the spell works when you see the ritual, those who can not
see are consequently immune to the hypnosis.^[86] When he turns off the hypnosis by force of will, the image shown melts away/shatters. Kyōka Suigetsu's Complete Hypnosis is absolutely flawless; even if the target is aware that they are under the hypnosis, they cannot resist its influence.^[87]
Kyōka Suigetsu's hypnotic abilities make it a highly useful tool in
combat, as Aizen can quickly create simple or complex illusions to
deceive opponents. By creating a decoy of himself, or other illusions
to distract his opponents, Aizen can hide his own movements and attack
with impunity; his opponent, meanwhile, will remain focused on the
illusion until it's too late to react.^[88][89]

While the illusions Kyōka Suigetsu creates are quite powerful,
those with considerable power and skill themselves may be able to note
slight differences in the illusions compared to the real thing, even if
they are not able to determine what, precisely, is different. Captain Retsu Unohana
was able to detect something was amiss with Aizen's fake corpse, even
though she did not realize what until seeing Aizen alive. This is how
Aizen has deceived many people and killed them, including one of his
own allies, the Tres Espada, Tia Harribel.^[26]
