The Official BLEACH series Thread

And Riruka.

No idea where she is at the moment so I don't really count her. Like I don't count Yukio, who is incapacitated.

I like Ichigo's new Bankai.

So that's what his Bankai looks like without hollow powers? Interesting.

I hate it that Ginjo has Ichigo's powers, however. I hope his bankai is his own bankai.

Ichigo's new Bankai looks cool, and it's pretty cool that he's not being retarded.

I liked Ginjo's Bankai as well, honestly.

Not sure how Ginjo expects to escape this though.

Unless he really does solo everyone here...

most likely. If Kubo made Aizen powerful enough to pwn just about everyone except for Yamamoto and Ichigo, then he'll probably do the same with Ginjo to drag things out. but at least his bankai and Ichigo's are pretty cool.

Or the captains can just stand around and not do shit like they've been doing.

Seriously what the hell, they couldn't pull off breaking the chat room?

I really hope Kubo doesn't make Ginjo more powerful.

There's something else going on: the captains want Ichigo to learn something.

Also, I want to say...totally called it. I knew there was no way Ichigo couldn't realize something so obvious. On top of that, it would appear that Ichigo realized that Ukitake was trying to indicate to Ichigo that the badge could/would be used to spy on him. He also admitted that Ukitake was smarter than he was. So I would like to point out that Ichigo is not quite the arrogant type (which I like...strong, sure of his abilities, but acknowledges those stronger than him). I think Ichigo's character is decent at times: mature and strong.

But in that we run into the problem of nobody telling Ichigo what the **** is going on; which usually makes situations like these more complicated then they have to be.

Well Ichigo being competent and mature was nice to see. We've seen this side of Ichigo at the beginning of the series as well as in the SS arc. Though I will say his reasoning is kind of weird. I don't think Ichigo was that smart to figure out the badge was a tracking device but he did trust Ukitake's judgement which is something.

Oh, I agree. It seems that Kubo constantly loves the "don't help a chick out of its egg" approach to Ichigo learning about stuff.

I believe the explanation Ichigo gave was something like..."Ukitake could not just come right out and say it. But if he wanted to deceive me, he could have...because he's smarter than I am. Because he worded his instructions specifically enough to allow me to deduce all of the badge's uses, he obviously intended me to know, all along. On top of this, I wanted to protect my lurved ones and I would have done it regardless of SS's motivations."

Basically, what Ukitake did is similar your insurance agent saying, "I did NOT tell you to call this line and fille this form to get this bill paid. Wink wink" Except more subtle.

That was so stupid.

"Here's a bullcrap explanation of the badge that is supposed to make you made."

"And here's a bullcrap explanation as to why it doesn't make me mad."

Lol seriously. Just Kubo trolling his ass off again.
As if it's not enough to invalidate Ichigo's powers by taking them away for the 20th time, and it isn't enough to invalidate THAT plot point by giving them back, now we gotta invalidate THIS plot point just because.... well... just because I guess.

Though I agree it was nice to see the maturity of Ichigo's character in this instance it's such a friggin let down that this already nothing, filler arc of a storyline is literally going NO WHERE we weren't already at this time last year. 😐

Although......... if Fullbringers are created when a hollows spiritual power gets into a mother and then into a child, that could explain where Ichigo's hollow came from in the first place. Even though most think its from his training with Urahara. mmm

Called it.

Talk about retcon.

I'm guessing this suggests that I was right about this being his Hollow surfacing. Considering he always had the Hollow inside him, it seems likely imo.

Also this suggests that he may well still have it.

Huh.

So.....what if Ichigo loses? 😐

I guess they don't think he can.

It'll be interesting to see the new arc soon.

Still, if Ichigo loses all of their effort would be worthless. Ginjo would just go back into hiding. They'll have gotten rid of his posse but he'll be free. The captains should at least wait and see the outcome before up and leaving Ichigo without backup.

I wonder what the new arc will center around? The only thing I can think of is whatever Rirukia did. Could it be possible the fullbringers were working for someone? Aizen maybe? Renji did say they were training to fight him after all.

Well Aizen sure didn't look that worried about being sent to prison.

He won't because of this.

So it's obvious that Ichigo will win. They can tell by his powah! Also, probably his experience in battle gives him an edge over Ginjy.

That's what it is: a retcon. Because the hollow powers are transmitted to the babies in the womb. The attacks occur before they get preggers.

So Kubo forgot what he wrote just a few weeks ago. No joke.

Eh, maybe. Then again, Ichigo is out of practice.

And it's Kubo, not Kishi. uhuh
