The Official BLEACH series Thread

Kay but fair warning: The anime ends right after the Fullbring arc. The manga is on it's last arc, the one that comes after that. So if you want to know how Bleach definitively ends, you'll have to read it. Unless they start animating it I guess.

And since I'm here, I'll throw in my two cents on Byakuya's motivation: It worked. I liked it.

I think they are making this last arc into a movie, or series of movies. The arc is moving very rapidly, fast enough pace for a movie or two.

The following episodes are filler and can be skipped.

The ending of the anime isn't filler per se, but rather the ending of that arc. After you've watched the anime you can start reading manga chapter 480.

I would not recommend start reading the manga of the episodes that are animated. The anime is in general better designed artistically.

This is actually a great guide for newcomers.

Yeah, sadly it will get lost in the thread. But it's not like it's difficult to find these episodes.

I found this funny. haermm

I like the way Kenpachi killed Beremice Gabrielli.

Oh go away Kenpachi...I can't get caught up in the threat if I know you're just so casually killing everyone.

He's going to get his ass kicked by the Big Bad anyway.

Odds are he'll probably die.

I really want Kenpachi's ability to be mentioned and to tie in with Spirits are forever with you.

It would also be cool if Zaraki was the child of the emperor as some have speculated due to similar facial designs.

I really want Kenpachi's ability to be mentioned and to tie in with Spirits are forever with you.

Unless he were to 'die' here only to reappear later, explaining his ability or perhaps even a freshly unlocked Bankai.. I live in hope just for the pure carnage it will be.

if Kenpachi ever does get a bankai, forget carnage, it'll be a damn all out massacre. though the whole him dying against this emperor guy so far we can't really be sure of yet.

This chapter really makes me wish I'd never heard of the novels. Now I can hardly stand the sight of Kenpachi casually one-shotting people.

So apparent the captured bankai stays active in the seal even after the owner of the zanpakuto is dead. That's weird but also extra bad for the shinigami.

I liked this chapter. It needs more Kenpachi ass-kicking.

I want the smug emperor to get his ass kicked by Kenpachi. That's not going to happen, sadly. It pains me to know that Kenpachi is going to kick the bucket or be sorely defeated by Mr. Grumpy Douche.

🙁

I'll bask in the glory that is Kenpachi until his defeat, though.

And getting to see Yamamoto kick some ass over his dead Lieutenant is nice. I hope he mops the floor with Mr. O.

It's Bleach.

I'm sure it wasn't anything important.
