Bleach Manga thread (SPOILERS)

Wasted chapter.

All that was developed was... nothing actually. Ichigo is on a Snake's path esque situation going down to the battlefield, and quincy girl trully went super Sayan. I guess we really can expect things to go down the same way they did in DragonBall against Vegeta.

This whole "Ichigo maturing" thing just reminds me of when Ichigo and his dad spent that time in the hyperbolic time chamber like thingy.

Shinji's shikai turns out to be useless... again!

Momo looks weird.

I like the mechanics behind Bambietta's explosions.

Komamura... is that you?!

Komamura's new bankai is awesome!

....

So, did we ever get a reason why ichigo has forgotten how to turn reiatsu into pure strength like he did that time? Because it's not like he did any physical training then :/

I don't really remember that part.

I think it was to show that Ichigo was that much above Aizen that he couldn't even feel Ichigo's reiatsu.

Aizen was muttering like a fool that whole fight.

Though, I could be wrong and Ichigo really did trade off his reiatsu. I don't really remember.

He didn't. He was just simply THAT much more powerful than Aizen was after spending the 2000 hours training for his final getsuga tenshou. Aizen was simply trying to make it seem logical in his head as to why he couldn't even feel Ichigo's reiatsu.

I like Komamura's new look, but I havent seen enough of his new bankai to say anything about it. I looks like it has a mustache... inb4sombrerobankaimemes...

Bambietta is cute. Someone tame her plox.

Lul, you're being so deep with those colour pages, Kubo.

Komamura becomes a dog before he reaches Ywach... which means he could've defeated him!

Yeah, I'm just a little pissed that Komamura lost everything just to beat Bambietta.

And I'm not sure if Bambietta is even out yet.

And I'm not sure if Bambietta is even out yet.

I think it's safe to say she was wasted by her comrades, given her reaction and their intense crowding around her like they were tired of her uselessness. With all of these open panels kubo does it's pretty open to interpretation for now though...

Feels like they ate Bambietta up or something. In any case, something is sure, they took whatever they could from her to get stronger so they might end up being Rukia's and Renji's opponents. Sounds logic since I don't see Rukia/Renji taking on one of the top guys.

In any case Komamura seems like another wasted character just like that girl that died training Kenpachi.

Unohana was the biggest disappointment ever. I really hope she's not dead... I didn't wait so many years just for this!

What a wonderful chapter in which nothing actually happens.

At the very least, renji and rukia showed up, so maybe something will happen next chapter

This is actually a pretty accurate summary of any given chapter of bleach.

Indeed, but none of them have really made me ask "why did i just spend time on this?" as hard as this one did.

It probably wouldn't be half as bad if you had more chapters to read after it.

I guess you just feel cheated on 'cause you waited a week for it.

Someone explain to me whats the point of Nanaos technique? Is she really so insecure that Kyoraku can't take Hashbalt?. Come on, Kyoraku took Stark with only Shikai, he must have been made Captain comander for a reason other than his smarts (he hasn't really shown any great intelligence either). What Hashbalt said is totally true, you wasted that technique on the one that needs it the least while leaving eveyrone else to their doom.

Now about Robot boy and Cang du, come on, both nearly killed their enemies, I might (stress on might) understand punishing Cang Du as it was the fire guy who did most, then he came to be defeated, but robot boy crippled Soi Fong and could still get up and walk after being "defeated", Cang du got out of the ice tomb without a freaking scratch after using Volstandig...wtp.

Kubo is trying waaaaaaaay too hard to make these villains complex and badass. They just look like a bunch of psychos stuck together under the rule of a crazy bastard that can't decide wether killing them or keeping them to kill them later when bored.

Does anyone remember the times when Vizards used to be a powerful faction to deal carefully with, and not cannon fodder?

...thinking about it, they have always been dealt with pretty easily, 100 years in the past, during the fight in karakura, and now.

Stupid Kubo wasting more characters,

Stupid Kubo wasting more characters,

Almost as stupid as his vice captain waiting (because sure, he was knocked for exactly the few seconds that "fight" lasted) until the exact moment it was too late to easily do anything about it to tell him "lol you attacked the wrong one first dumbass".
Hell, if he hadn't deliberately attacked an enemy who he already knew he couldn't beat, he could have told his captain who was literally seconds away it immediately and solved the problem quickly and simply.

And another thing, why aren't any of the vizards using hollow powers, they have to have heard the message that hollow reiatsu is super effective against the quincies >_>

Oh for pineapple's sake.

 Spoiler

"Allow me to explain to you how my technique works so that you may effectively counter it!"

Aside from that, yay, Renji's back! And apparently he has captain level strength now?
