did i insult you or what o_O

thats what i was talking about.. he made this arc around 4 years long and his character development sucks more than other shit.

when did the main characters had some development ? do you remember ? xD
i remember some villains here and there had some pathetic 'past' shown about them right before their death :D


Nopes, it's just funny that you would, looking at how I view bleach.
Yep, character development isn't Tite's strong suit, the only one who's been a yoyo of "development" is Ichigo.
Doesn't change the little hints he's thrown about Mizuiro, showing that there's a possibility that he has a bigger role in the future.

2/5 ... the points came because Yuzu and Karin were quite cute and Karin was her usual amazing self. as for the rest.. well plot - Ichigo will somehow get his powers back and become superpowerfulunstopableuberpoweredup its just a matter of time..

And yes it looked like Aizen must have had his way with some female - I pity them. But in all seriousness Tats I loved her.. now she has a fucking mullet?

I don't understand people.

If they would have shown all of the cast and what they were doing now in one chapter everyone would have said it is rushed. Now we get a good paced chapter and everyone cry that they didn't saw every character in it. Give it time, you'll see them fast enough.

Also there is other way for Ichigo to regain power without it being shinigami related.

No. Zangetsu and Shiroichigo(or whatever you call it) were actually the same entity, they were both Ichigo's same and only power as a Shinigami.
He discarded every power he had in order to use the Final getsuga tenshou so it should be impossible for him to still have hollow power. This fact has been enforced even more by having Ichigo lose all of his Reiatsu and his ability to sense some, if he would still have his hollow side he wouldn't have this problem.

Ganju + Aizen = the new guy.

I rather enjoyed this chapter. No matter the series, the beginning of an arc is always interesting and Kubo actually didn't waste anytime introducing a new character. Not that he ever did, I believe . . .
Anyway, I just don't understand why Ichigo didn't ask his father why he's a shinigami and stuff. I sure as hell would want some answers if I was in Ichigo's shoes. Though we'll probably get to those things in this arc so whatever.

LIIIIIES, why do you think there was a time skip? All of SS has been training because of their failings, especially frosty midget. Throwing a time skip and pretending that it's to show how Ichigo has moved on from that world is just an excuse to make the Captains less useless next time around, hopefully.
When Ichigo gets his powers back he'll be stronger than before, but the enemies will be too. Unless Tite does something amazing and throws out opponents that are weaker than the espada.
Though I am against Bleach for the most part, I really do hope there's actual development with characters, because even though he threw a time skip, I don't actually feel it.

Don't mind it.


If Ichigo regained powers this chapter: everyone would complain.
If Ichigo did not regain his powers this chapter - everyone would complain.
If this chapter had aizen - everyone would complain
if this chapter did not have aizen - everyone would complain.
if this chapter had ss side of story - everyone would complain it was rushed.

"If Tite had never thrown away Ichigo's powers needlessly: people wouldn't have to complain about him obviously getting them back in the future."

The impending doom that is another 3 year long arc may well make me savour this small arc, the normal life.
Everyone, lets be thankful for a chapter with no asspullery, deus ex machina or terrible fights, amen.

I like the back-to-basics feel of this new arc, and the fact that most pages actually have more than 2-3 panels on them.

That being said, I think it's too early to say whether Kubo has truly gotten his act together, or is just raising our hopes before he utterly trolls us again. Only time will tell.

I am hopeful, however. Don't screw it up, KT!

okay. I've read the chapter and started wondering: why no one asks the key question...: where. is. Grimmjow?! XD but o'well.
chapter itself was actually quite good. when I saw the guy on the last page I was like "he's... he's... hm. I sure seen him somewhere!"
and Tatsuki's haircut reminds me of good, old Kaien Shiba <3

ReaperEXE said:
Only shinigami can see the Substitute shinigami badge. Hmmm, it is a mystery... ( *≖‿≖*)

no, not only a shinigami can see it. Tatsuki, if I can remember right, saw it in the beginning and she's not a shinigami.

and I think some of the people didn't really get the purpose of this chapter. it is a filler chapter to introduce new stuff. boring as it has to be - the real story will begin in the next chapter or two.

Unexpectedly it was a decent chapter. I have good hopes for this arc.
But why didn't Kubo show Orihime and Chad along with the other minor characters in this chapter? It's not like they're less important. I'm surprised we're given more Keigo and Mizuiro or even Tatsuki (who is always with Orihime) and not the actual main group of the series.


That's probably because like Uryu, Chad and Orihime are so busy fighting hollows that it is hard for them to talk to Ichigo now, especially since bringing that stuff up would inevitably involve talking about Rukia. They're all still friends, but their principal bond is not there anymore. Anyway, there has to be a reason why Ichigo still has the badge, and it is good to see that he hasn't lost all of his ability. I'm looking forward to this next arc.

I always liked the simple shinigami has a sword, cuts things up and saves people from being eaten. Once they entered soul society everything was blow out of proportions and the power levels were exponential.

The fact that he is just a normal human now with his attuned senses and body brings the power back down to a reasonable level. It is nice to be able to see more than two characters per chapter, have them all incorporated in, and have multiple scenes. 1 scene taking 4 chapters has gone out the window, i hope, for good.

Anyways this arc is bound to be a lot better than last time.

I dont think Aizen will play that big of a bad guy role in the future. I do think he will be back but in more of a rogue way. Just messing everything up for the good guys and the bad guys.

Aizen's words against Urahara showed that ichigo and Aizen probably have the same enemy!! But hell what do i know... I could be all wrong!!

@fai, nobody cares about him though.
his character development is terrible, like any other characters..

i dont see a reason why should i care about him or if he's a mysterious person there..
only hardcore fanboys like you will see that.. but for average readers he is a random character ( note - his development is poor and not special, thats why everybody forgets about him)
i didnt even know all the stuff you wrote about him xD


So you're saying I'm a bleach fanboy? Good one, OPtard.
The fact that some forget about him is that Tite made a 2 year long arc and ignored him all that time, there's not much point to mention someone in a chapter discussion when you don't see them for a long time.

And now all the "karin should get a bigger role, lol" has made me worry. New guy appears before her, possibly killing a hollow or so, using her to get to Ichigo.
I wonder if Shinji still goes to school, or gave that up after Ichi didn't want to join him. Fleh.


Shinji and the others were probably lost in that scary thing called plot hole.

Character Development this chapter: Ichigo pretending to have moved on, still angsty but has good reflexes.
Karin became a 15 year old Ichigo.
Please people, don't delude yourselves into thinking that this was some huge development.

And they are not weird to think that a chapter that didn't involve pointless fights, close ups and retarded rants is filler, because that's what the rest of bleach is.
