The captain wouldn't do something reckless as that.

They have a strategy prepared for sure.


It won't work on vizard. But anyway, they have their mask, so...

I like it, i like these last few chapters. Never thought bleach is going to be this interesting again and this pace is perfect for bleach.

Quencies have my full support. I wonder how they will survive now that bankai's are gone. I know not everyone is going to die BUT i hope their won't be ridiculous plot shield. Kubo please keep going like this and at-least kill one or two captains, then come up with some decent idea to save others.

Emm...ok, so 4 captains lost their Bankai, Ichigo and friends are fighting with the other Quincy in HM.
I dont really think Quincy are so weak that they will loose with captains without Bankai on.Which means...SS in deep shiiiiiiii~.THOUGH i hope we will see Isshin and Ishida soon.

and Grimmjow :3.

I think it has to do with the Final Getsuga Tenshou, when Ichigo fused with Zangetsu... I think the effects have lingered through the Fullbring arc and Ichigo is probably still "one" with his powers, making it impossible to separate him from them.

So, I guess they need to destroy the thing that they use to absorb the Bankai.
Soifon's and Komamura's Bankai are just destructive power. Though it is a different story with Byakuya and Hitsugaya. They will have a hard time on this one.

I mentioned before, the Quincies are way too overpowered.
Ichigo's Bankai might not be sealed because of Fullbring recovery.

Though I won't be surprised if, the captains develop another Bankai. Ahaha.
Kenpachi really needs to save the day.

"We know that quincies can seal away our bankai, so lets use bankai on them."
So I'm not the only one who thought that...

Jim_Heart said:
I just don't get it why Soifon did Bankai too ?
I dont think it's rational
Yeah, I thought that was weird, too.

Fai said:
The only way as Allon has shown is to just outright overpower them with physical strength or reiatsu till they die.
And Soi Fon was probably one of those who could have done that, and has a dangerous shikai - yet she uses bankai right away.

Fai said:
Inarius said:

Well Byakuya might not get raped since he can use all sorts of kidos.
which will do jack-shit to quincies, just as any reiatsu based attack(like GT did nothing to Kirge).
I wonder what everyone here expects Aizen to do then?
Kido should be useless, it's not sure whether he has bankai (not that it matters) and I doubt that the Quincies just sit and watch his release - and without that, there's no illusions. So yeah, he can try to hit them with the sword - oh wait, that doesn't work either.

lol has anyone else noticed that kubo never puts kenpachi in fights against opponents that use special abilities rather than just brute strength? Even during the fights with Tosen and the fullbringer Giriko. In both of those fights they stopped using their real powers and decided to take him on with plan old physical attacks which obviously don't work. I'm curious to see how he is going manage in a fight with these quincys. Who knows, maybe i'll like his character a bit more if i see him defeat someone that can do more than swing a sword or throw a punch.

Ichimaru Gin said:
"Bein' able to use Kyouka Sugetsu ain't what makes Cap'n Aizen scary."
"'Cause all of his abilities are far beyond anyone else's. Guard against Kyoka Suigetsu? Nope. That ain't enough. Guard against everything else? Nope. Still ain't enough."
"Even if y'all use every bit of yer knowledge to guard against e'ery kind of misfortune like the sky fallin' or the earth bein' torn asunder, Cap'n Aizen's abilities will still be far beyond that."


Remember when Soifon connected her Shikai on Base Aizen and it didn't work?

On paper, logically, by word of the author, Aizen should've been dead after getting hit by her Shikai.

What did Aizen say?

"I'm stronger than you."

He's immortal, he will get his Shikai to work on them if it's the last thing he does. Also, if Byakuya can cut them, Aizen can. I don't think any amount of training from Byakuya could change that.
--

That all said, Aizen isn't appearing any time soon, if ever.

There's also the thing about Ichigo being of "true blood" as stated by Grand Fisher.

So most likely there's reason in his bloodline on why as well as the nature of his bankai and why his whole family seems to have getsu-swords.

Agree. Didn't Soi Fon hate her bankai?; why should she use it?

I wonder why they can't steal Ichigo's bankai while they can steal the taichous bankai. Hopefully we don't have to wait an entire year or two for have that answer.


her bankai design changed. most likely she improved it.

hitsugaya's bankai also no longer had petals.

-Shuda- said:
As many have brought up, KENPACHI would love this situation lol.

Any way, Bleach seriously needs more panels.

So 4 Bankai's get stolen. Ukitake and Shuunsui are still in the game, Ichigo is immune and I wonder if they can steal Resurrección's. If not, Ichigo/Urahara's crew making an entrance with Grimmjow R2, Halibel, Nel and a few hundred Arrancar would be fun to witness. (Just wishful thinking here ^^, The Quincies should technically slaughter everyone except Ichigo, Urahara and Grimmjow R2 any way.)

The Aizen card most likely will be saved for later. It's pointless to release him this early, if ever.

Also, Yoruichi would actually be effective in this situation (with her pure physical prowess and fighting style). Maybe it's time for her to show up? Another thing, if Ichigo is immune, would Isshin be immune as well?

It seems like these fights will be dragged out, I hope we get to see some serious casualties on both sides.


Quincies can outright absorb beings too. Just absorbing bankais seems to be more of a conscious decision in order to be able to kill shinigami.

It isn't a swastika that you are thinking of; ppl need to do some research before saying things about delicate subjects.
Ichigo's bankai hilt has it.

Bankai stealing is a new change of pace; this arc is showing some promise.
I wonder if the Quincies can use the bankai they steal? Of course, still dunno why Ichigo is unaffected by it.
The Quincy leader prolly knew Ichigo wouldn't be affected which is why he decided to attack Soul Society with him in Hueco Mundo.

It's not a kanji. It has a kanji reading though.

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

aaaaaaaaaaaand through the use of plot armor, Ichigo somehow isn't affected at all by this maneuver. ughh....its always Ichigo -_-


Not plot armor.

He is not just immune for sake of immunity. We have already seen that "-getsu" line of swords seems to be unique and persist through kurosaki family. This arc is supposed to reveal all msiteries behind Ichigo's birth and specialness.


And i thought it's beause his bankai was sealed or something like that into his shinigami badge.

Jim_Heart said:

well yeah, different story if that only for "observe" 'quincy's power,,

dont worry, soifon's bankai is a bazooka, so it's worse than her non-bankai skill :D

her death blow will succeed with ease over the silly bazooka XD



I hate to see Knepachi always dodge the plot when it's clear he would dominate it.
1st of all i wonder if they bring out a kenpachi bankai without him knowing he had any. XD
Also, seriously, he should be able to mash up all those quincies alone, that's how strong the plot described him so far.


So did the captains somehow forsee this and train 6 months for the quincies and not the fullbringers?


Oh god, what an awful lot of time to wait to get the full and real answers! T_T

LOL loved this chapter...especially the faces on the captains faces after all there Bankai got stolen lmao...xD

Well doubt the captain are out of it yet...they'll be more to come from them....though I don't know how they'll defeat the Quincy opponents exactly....especially if they release into there other forms.

Can't wait to see the other Captains, as others of said Kenpachi should have no problems....and possibly the Vaizard.

I was hoping to see Ichi finish of that guy today....next week may be....I hope..

Aww, it is sad that Captains' Bankai are being stolen! But I like the part when they ask their vice-captains to watch & identify the method Quincy use. It sounds so like in a war.
