HOW THE FUCK DOES THAT SUIT A STEALTH OPS CAPTAIN!?!
And is her bankai ANYTHING like her shikai? Isn't that kinda the point of a bankai?
Can you even call this a chapter? It's not as if he's dead now we all know how these fights work out. Goddamn Kubo Come on now! Put some freaking effort into it.

edit: It would be much better if she had some kind of Sniper Rifle weapon. A 1 hit kill except its really hard to use in a direct battle like this, so that's why she needed fatty to keep him occupied. You know, something that would FIT a stealth squad captain. See it's not THAT hard to come up with something other then LOL BAZOOKA!

I like her bankai. It explain why she hasn't used it before now.

Tsukanda said:
...A bazooka. It's like Tite lost the ability to come up with god ideas after barragan's release.

Seriously, he just ruined Soifon. She's such an AWESOME character and yet all he can think of is an over sized cannon?! That beam better have some "interesting" power to it. If its just a huge beam of power, I will scream.

Since when do hornets fire lasers?

NoyaChan said:
First of all, why the heck did Kubo re-use 2 panels from the 1st page to the 2nd page? Like, what's the point!? XDD short on time? I dont get it.

Anyway, her bankai looks awesome but I'm waiting to see more of its abilities. :)

Another week, another no advancement in plot for Bleach. I've gotten pretty used to this now.

Soi Fon's bankai was ok but not all that and there's really nothing else to talk about in this chapter

ichikiba said:
She just launched it, and it made a huge explosion. I don't see what other abilities it could possibly have. If it does something other than blow stuff up, I think most of the posters here are gonna be eating their words, myself included.

Packie said:
I kinda enjoyed this chapter but is it me or are some of the shinigami can't get the fact that they are fighting a battle that'll decide the fate of the "FREAKIN' WORLD".!!!

Aeterna said:

This.

I love Soi Fon and most of the others, but seriously, just swallow your effing pride and save the world. And why is Ukitake playing around while everyone's, you know, getting killed? o_o;

ichikiba said:

It was a joke.

NoyaChan said:

Kubo never used a joke like that, it's so not his style! D:

NoyaChan said:
I'm just gonna blame Kubo's editor for letting him use this lame joke. D:
(I'm sorry, Ukitake, I feel bad for you ;___;)

ichikiba said:


I believe I posted something like this a few chapters ago, about how Yamamoto is just standing there, while Soi Fon's lost an arm, and, at the time, Hitsugaya and Harribel were in a stalemate. Though, I didn't think of your point about Ukitake. It makes the openning scene seem much less funny, and more like Ukitake's a horrible, horrible person. Though, I personally don't like him in the first place.

where is chad I miss him *too much captain fights*

ichikiba said:

As for the characters introduced in Hueco Mundo, I despise several of them, and not in the way I'm supposed to. I don't hate them because they're evil. I hate them because they're just repeats of the Gotei 13 captains. Grimmjow is pretty much the same as Kenpachi, Ulquiorra was much like Byakuya, Granz was the same as Mayuri (execpt their view on perfection), and so on.

Anyway, getting back to the characters than have been pushed into the background, Chad in Hueco Mundo ended up the same way as he did in Soul Society--defeating a relatively weak enemy, only to end up almost dead at the hands of a much stronger opponent. Absolutely no progress, at all. His powers changed, but it's the same story.

Mammoth said:
I'd say Grimmjow was Renji. Both were hot-headed rivals Ichigo beat halfway through before moving on to their calm black haired superiors. But yeah, they're mostly rehashes. Kubo should go to TVTropes.com and pick up a few new archetypes. I wouldn't trust him with developing characters anyways, considering what happened to Orihime and Ichigo.

Which you know, was intentional.

Most HM characters mirror SS characters.

I can see what you're talking about, but still, I dont think were exactly rehashes but ended being more of a cannon fodder, seriously. Existed only to get pawned by SS Captains & Cia. We got to see part of Nnoitra past, but only cuz It involved Nel also. Saw Ulquiorra remembering that deep inside he was emo. There was also a bit of Grimmjow past. The Espadas which seemed to be so much important b4, are basically all dead already, and nothing really great happened.

About Chad and the others, It's happens all the time in shounens, and Kubo surely would not make any different in his lol. As the protagonist pals can't keep w/ him in terms of "power" they tend to be left out. And the one who will suffer from it the most its Chad. Rukia, Renji and even Ishiida are clearly going to improve later, and Orihime will mainly appear due the love triangle.

Chad just gained a new power and right away got pwnd. Its pretty probable that next time he shows up, in a major battle, it'll be exactly the same. Its a pit, Chad is probably the most loyal friend and sk of Ichigos, he deserved more.

If kubo has any intelligence remaining, Chad will dominate in the future, mark my words.

Iv'e just noticed, but since like the espada's are taking so long just to defeat a captain.Wouldn't Aizen show some kinda of annoyance being stuck in the flames waiting.I mean,it's a war isn't it?.Kill as fast as you can ?

Gryml said:
I think the MOST annoying part of all this... is the way the fights are put together... what is done is that they start 4-5 fights at the same time, then they show 10 pages of one fight and go to the next one where 4-5 of the pages have to show what recently happened in that fight (which we already know) and then the last 4-5 pages is actually "progress"...

I dont mind soi fons bankai, and for all those complaining about it dosnt suit her, well that was the point about it. and theres must be some more to that bankai than what we have seen, because if not soi fon is gonna die soon, that wont kill the number 2 espaada.

i also see many is complaining about yamato, and ukitake isn't giving it their all or anything. however if they waste energy on something that a vice captain or another captain can do, then who will fight aizen, tousen and gin when they get out of the flames ? well... the vaizards will, is my guess but they don't know about them just yet.

I hope Soi Fon dies. I also thinks Aizen is stalling or something. Maybe the espada are actually adjuchas and the real vasto lordes are waiting in the wings. Maybe Aizen just wants to wear out the captains/slash kill a few, so the vasto lordes can tear through. I think thats when the Vizards will show up.
