Bleach sucks these days. Maybe I'll finally stop reading and just come back when it finally ends and read the ending.

It's a shame too, bleach is what got me hooked on anime/manga and now look what it has become.

Thor is a little dumb. I mean both Kuchki and Toshiro using Bankai, with the latter supposedly having a supped up Bankai, and of Course the ever waited for OP Kenpachi releasing bankai, and Thor is still alive? Kind of Lame. really making the Captains looks weak. again especially OP Kenpachi.

It's like Kubo has been drunk while entirely writing this war arc. I swear it's a lot worse than Naruto's arc. I miss old Bleach, so much.

Yhwach saw the past Ichigo who only had 1 sword, not the current Ichigo with 2 :O


Thanks! At least someone mentioned it. it still doesnt tell us why the hell YWACH WAS DREAMING OF THE PAST ICHIGO.

This chapter seemed really short. Kubo decided this chapter would be one with little dialogue and so many cliffhangers. Not bad though. It feels like things will be wrapping up.

Honestly I wouldn´t say that he was drunk. Imo this arc suffers from two things mainly, that all could have been solved through proper planning.

1. Pacing, the arc is only a mess because he keeps changing locations and protagonists, the focus goes from one captain to another to Ichigo, back to a different captain.

2. Power creep overdose. Literally the same issue Toriko suffers from. The powerlevels have become so overly huge that in order to convey their movement the author draws them standing around or throwing one attack at a time. Implying that the attack is too fast for the naked eye, or that it takes over huge vicinities without hurting any of the cast.

Dragon Ball who has an even higher powercreep managed to actually suceed where this two series failed, because they kept the martial arts. Even when planet busting Freezer and Goku duke it out they keep it hand to hand and only occasionally fit in an energy beam.

3. Missing Struggle, which is a consequence of the two aboive mentioned reasons. Where Dragonball made fighters of equal level fight and showcase both sides abilities simultaniously Bleach and Toriko make it a onesided domination on whatever side is currently winning. This was done entertaining in Hellsing. Though the difference was, that the guy who won constantly dominated throughout all of the story (It´s like Aizen would have won without ever losing).

I think that the key to kill him is psychology no brute strength.this where shinji (I believe I can't remember his name exactly ) with his bankai


I had literally the same thought when he stood up again, not that I put thought into it . Shinji is just the one whose Bankai we haven´t seen yet and I believe that Kubo tries to shoehorn in every Bankai that he hasn´t revealed yet.

He confirmed in an Interview that Kira´s Bankai will get revealed, Shuhei was shutdown by Lilie, but according to Kensei he knows Bankai, why hint at that if he´s not gonna use it.

Yoruichi should be capable of using hers, we got to see Uraharas so why not?
Love has to reveal his, we saw Kensei´s and Rōjūrō´s. Even Rukia achieved Bankai.


Also there are 3 things that massively bother me with Kubo´s story.

1.If Isshin taught Ichigo Final Getsuga. Why the fuck didn´t this piece of shit use motherfucking Mugetsu against Aizen. Apparemtly Engetsu knows the technique too.

2.If Aizen managed to do all that shit with just hypnosis, what could he have done with his Bankai, I get it he was arrogant and shit, wouldn´t have hurt to just show off though.

3. Tessai was Captain of the Kido corps and performed some of the most broken shit the universe has to offer next to Aizen, why is this piece of shit chillin in Uraharas shop alongside Isshin when both those guys potentially could take down a Sternritter by themselves.

All indicators that Kubo just poorly planned his future story progression and now puts all this content into one gigantic arc to answer all the open questions.


shinji is just reversing shit ...

he will probably use his bankai and turn the miracle into failure or some shit like that, instant win right there

i hope to see the big guy fall as it is, no new introductions, just a boring easy fail, without even having shinji or his ability there

Ugh I hope Orihime redeems herself during this battle. I actually liked her in the beginning but Hueco Mundo arc ruined all of that.

Still can't get over how she screamed at Ichigo to save HER from Ulquiorra (who even stated earlier he wouldn't kill her unless Aizen ordered it so) while Ishida was slumped over somewhere with a new, bloodied stump for an arm and Ichigo was literally dead. It was one of the most selfish scenes I'd witnessed in a character...

She even had a chance to redeem herself during the Fullbring arc but it it turned out to be Byakuya, not the girl who apparently loves Ichigo, who managed to defeat Tsukishima even while under the spell of his fanfic powers.

Also Thor is just stupid OP, at this rate they're going to have to seal him off somewhere. Maybe PSP Kid will step into the fight and banish him to some pocket dimension.

Geez, I keep forgetting that this manga is still coming out (ʘ‿ʘ)

Can't stand how short each chapter is and that barely anything happens in them. Still, Orihime got a scene, so 10/10 <3

Still, I do have a bad feeling that she will end up as usual damsel in distress... Hopefully I'm wrong.

The big guy is still alive. How? Just die already. After all that and he is still alive, there is no way he can be beaten now. Where Shinji at?
Looking forward to Ichigo vs Yhwach, and also what Orihime will do in the upcoming fight.

The miracle of boredom... This guy should become a Saint of Athena, the number of times he miraculously stood up in only one fight is probably more than some Bronze.
Seriously, he's so big than he carries the manga on his shoulders like Atlas the world.

Orihime finally able to help? I hope it means she'll provide effective supoort, not an anger trigger for yet another power level-up.

Why is Ichigo using the old non-true form of his zanpakutô in what is supposed to be the future? o_O

2/5

So, Ichigo is the child of Darkness? Damian XD

"The Miracles never cease." for a fact that it is labeled as a "Miracle" .
While Ishida strongholds , Inoue and Ichigo finally have a good moment ~ .

Wow, so instead of keeping her away from danger, he recognises her talents and will be needing her help

I was actually just joking but I called it, there were really other two transformations to go.. I’d never would have guessed Orihime would take directly part at the final battle.

So the miracle guy still isn't dead and why's Ichigo taking his time so much. If he was running full speed probably could've got there before he woke up

People are clowning but Orihime's been just as if not more useful than Chad. You guys aren't ready for that convo though and let's not get started with Rukia whos bankai has made people forget how generally useless she's been
