| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- So, Aizen apparantly decided to kill off everyone one by one lol, not that id complain about that. "new" Zangetsu looks interesting. sort of like fussion between zangetsu and shirosaki. Although I expect many haters will jump on his design going on some nonsense on how he looks.vBut seriously, Looks pretty much like Zangetsu but ~30 years younger, with no shades or beard. I don't see anything wrong with his design. And Isshin's sword name goes yet again towards my theory about kurosaki family and whole noble families/higher caste. After all, the real world higher castes have something to separate them from commoners. Whats a better way to separate a noble shinigami clan/group from a commoner than to give them similar types of swords to be associated with them.. Its also interesting on how the whole "raining in the inner world" continues....well....going by what we see now, its been raining.....a lot. Also it seems we will finally find out the truth behind the whole zangetsu stuff. And nice use of foreshadowing aizen's current situation with Stark. Oh and aizen might have some relation to kurosaki family after all: - Zangetsu - Engetsu - Tensa Zangetsu - Kyouka Suigetsu - Getsuga Tenshou 5/5 EDIT: oh and heres interesting bit about the color spread. Apparantly the double-headed eagle represents the emperor and its "duality", its "Dual nature". NOw think about Ichigo and his two sides: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-headed_eagle |

| I'm a bit disappointed in this chapter. Not by the fact that Tensa Zangetsu looks like Ulquiorra, or any of the other usual bullshit, but rather by how weak and predictable Kubo's trolls are getting. =/ |

| i thought zangetsu was a woman when he still had his hood up and i was about to have a heart attack thinking ichigo's mom was going to appear and help ichigo beat down shirosaki in resurcession hollow mode. i thought the 'what i want to protect' thing was pretty bs. I mean, if ichigo wants to protect the town and risks his life doing that, ends up dying, doesn't zangetsu die? oh bleach, if only you didn't take 2 minutes to read every week. |

| Very nice chapter. Ichigo never was in his inner world in the bankai state, indeed. And the first thing that came to my mind after seeing Zangetsu's form was - it's him, just younger. What is it that Zangetsu wants to protect? Maybe it's power too destructive and dangerous, or maybe it can somehow hurt itself while fighting... We also saw someone's death, not of someone inportant, but still, a bit depressing. |

asterixk said: engetsu , zangetsu , suigetsu ok im starting to think they are 1 big family like some noble and they were opressed? thats why aizen wants to be God and thats also why he knew ichigo they moment he was born out of all "moon" zanpakutohs we seen, so far two had the abbility to use getsuga tenshou and both most likely are in perma-shikai form. Now we find out that their spirit names are similar. And both wielders of engetsu and zangetsu belong to the same family. Also, Ichigo is a firstborn and firstborns usually inherit the inheritance, family sword, etc. The only "odd" one is Aizen, who goes against all these factors. Could he be some kind of "rogue" member of that family? Someone who specifically chose to ignore the main traits of his own blood? LiarK said: What is it that Zangetsu wants to protect?

Remember what Gin said in his fight with ichigo in these few previous chapters? 2. Remember the choice Zangetsu gave during the fight against Zaraki? 3. Remember the "I hate rain"? Now, remember all those things and what Tensa said this chapter gets a whole lot more meaningful. |

| That's how that chapter's going to end? Really? Um, okay. And everyone got their wish. Aizen is actually killing people now. People so weak they have no chance in hell of even looking at him and surviving. How nice. Thanks Kubo. :P |

I'd go for Aizen and Isshin being brothers - Isshin the older, Aizen the younger one. So isshin inherits the sword and aizen, out of jealously or something or some tragedy, steals someone else's in the family or etc. There was just something.....brother-like when Isshin interrupted Aizen and that whole finger flick he did. Aizen has zanpakuto named after water and water is shown as BAD thing in inner world. Could Suigetsu be some sort of corrupted/twisted/dark sword of the family? oh and heres interesting bit about the color spread. Apparantly the double-headed eagle represents the emperor and its "duality", its "Dual nature". NOw think about Ichigo and his two sides: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-headed_eagle |

http://img-c.onemanga.com/mangas/00000003/000303662/04.jpg Elder / family figure attitude / librarian, it's possible. And wow, Ichi's sword is schizophrenic, snazzy. Yes the first was shikai, the second was hollow, the third was bankai, but they're all part of the same sword, schizophrenia is a great thing, wonder if the grandmother will come out next, "I'm grangetsu, ohayo" But another look into Isshin at least, his zan's name, he went through the same thing, blah blah, wonder if we'll get "we don't want to protect the same thing, I want to protect your bloodline / you" *shock* I thought the new form was a female though :/ reminded me of Rukia, I guess Tite just wanted to make another bishie to not kill off. Anyway, at least it's picking up finally, but I've said that a lot these past months, I could be very wrong. |

| For once, I kind of agree with Fai's opening post here except for the nobility having similar swords part and the relation of Aizen to Ichigo, including the swords. It doesn't have much basis to support it, yet. But yeah, Tensa Zangetsu does look like a younger Zangetsu though Kubo really loves bishies. So Aizen is going to walk around killing people then talk to Tatsuki. Nice way to pass the time. Bleach is sort of getting interesting by each chapter, but this whole plot development doesn't really help much in changing the views of people about the manga. |

| What the fucking fuck? Why is Aizen taking a trip over Karakura town no? And dunno why, but the art is really getting shitty, everyone looks alike now... except for their hair, which is always -for some random reason- stylish. |

| Yeah I thought Ichi was Hitsugaya when we first saw him this chapter. And I just read through again: "the one who taught you how to breathe" so telling someone they should be able to breathe constitutes teaching them, comedy at its best, I mean, great plot and great logic, unlike naruto. Ooooo Bishie Zangetsu's shoes are like Aizen's too :p |
