You realize that if there wasn't a hint that this was his power earlier, that's just bad writing? Otherwise a chapter would only be good if it made up a completely random power out of no where each week rather than being a foreshadowed build up.

Onto his power, I think they said that he only had offensive attacks that could cut through anything right? What if this is an evolution of that power to cut through the metaphysical heart? It's still technically just a cutting fullbring but a semi-logical step up without being a random secondardy ability.

Basically all that happened is what happened to Orihime already happened to everyone, which I would hardly call a good chapter. It would have been fine had something else happened but just ending with ITS A TRAP pretty much killed it. Yes I agree if there was no hint it would be shitty writing, but nothing really happened at all this chapter that it needed to be its own chapter.

tl:dr if there was more meat to the chapter it probably would have been better

My bet is that when Ichigo starts fighting Tsukishima, Tsukishima will be completely dominating the fight. Then, through some deus ex machina, Ichigo's dad/Urahara come in and completely turn the tables and give Ichigo something that lets him use his bankai again... but now with TWO SWORDS. Doesn't sound too unrealistic, right?

Standard bleach.

Well this was actually pretty interesting.

Though I am unsure why he didn't just pewpew them all.

maybe he'll go to the shinigami universe again for some help..? I doubt it will happen unless there will be some mention of the "soul king" urahara and .

Though how about ishida? He was stabbed but unlike orhimie / chad / all he actually got hurt. While the others didnt? is he being mindhaxxed?

Where is the dad / urahara / ishidas daddy and what are they scheming at? I wanna knooow.

ishida has always been the smartest of the group especially when it comes to mental things, he probably found a way to resist and instead was taken down.

New chapter... + Show Spoiler +

What was the point of showing Isshin and Urahara in the start wtf ? I just got a feeling that Ginjou is the vilain here instead of Aizen 2.0 . Well at least we saw 2 panels with a foot lol...

Typical yawn Bleach chapter

Ya, for all we know Ginjou is the bad guy. Although Uruhara and Isshin will be able to clear things up.

Okay...this is just getting kind of ridiculous/boring, and is really reminding me of that terrible Bounto arc in the anime, especially with that panel with the derelict mansion >_>

Soooo.... explaining the obvious and inventing a way to bring everyone to Tsukishima.

Everyone is bad, ichigo is insane and so is ginjou.

And now they actually considered murder? That's... uncommon. And I'm pretty sure that it would be stupid to actually murder tsukishima.

And what is the point of affecting everyone except ichigo and ginjou?

I think Kubo is hoping that by calling himself out on dumb shit that we won't complain about it.

I was kinda hoping we'd see Shinigami vs. Ichigo friend zombies, with Ichigo fighting both sides to try to protect everyone or something based on the last chapter. Which is to say that I'm back to wanting Ichigo to die about as much as ever, in as painful a way as possible.

Also - have we really gone another month since the 'whose feet are those?' discussion without having any more clues about it?

Interesting to see the manga saying the location of the final showdown this quickly though... Although I suppose the same could have been said about where Aizen and Ichigo ended up fighting when he used the 'final getsuga tenshou' (sp?) when we were in the Rukia arc and they were walking around outside the walls of Seireitei.

I'm half hoping for a guest appearance of Deadmau5 and his sweet space-invader tattoos. It won't make sense in the manga, but we'll be glad for a Dj when the anime catches up.

You mustn't forget the meaningful stares those people have while they are standing around. Intense thinking going there. IT MEANS SOMETHING.

This has potential to get interesting. However, so far it's pretty much identical to the new Gintama season first few episodes. All that needs to happen now is to find out that Ichigo and Gijnou are actually under whatshisname Aizen 2.0's control and for someone else to save them.

If I was able to, all I would say is "argh". But, this is Teamliquid, and so I must adhere to the high quality standards. Reading Bleach is like biting off my own fingers, except I would have more pleasure biting off my fingers.
I really do not get the beginning, why do those panels exist ._.?

I think, beyond the everchanging OP, that you've won this thread.

I'd argue that the quality of one's response should reflect the quality of what you're responding to. For example, my response:

It just seems that Bleach is trying hard to be avant garde or some crap with all that standing around ==;

And Kubo trying to lampshade... -___-;

...It really is that bad
