I think Kubo forgot how to draw Rukia. She's looking way too much like Hanatarou.

I've been reading though not really enjoying bleach since the new arc started but I gotta say, that one scene with all of the guys lined up to each other was pretty baller. It brought back the feelings of old school bleach for me.

That said, nothing about the manga really makes sense these days =D

i doubt hes got his full power back because then he would be invincible and an invincible hero is just boring
with full power i mean he could do this one time thingie with which he overpowered aizen


Then he would lose his powers again...

... and then get them back again

as sad as it is, its a possibillity that it will be like this now..


they are probably gonna explain it away so that that doesn't happen. maybe they can only do it once and the next time Ichigo will die sort of thing.

Ichigo will always have some sort of "cap" for his power, whether it's his hollow form or his powers being taken away. some form of limiter like this just provides the necessary tension that's needed for the plot. If it's not this, then it will be something else, especially that he's now basically the strongest character in the bleach universe.

dunno why people are saying this chapter was good. I did like the fact that they showed the captains in this chapter, that was cool. But for the story, it was just dumb. The arc's story pacing has deteriorated, by jumping so quickly to the "This CAN'T BEEEEEEEEEE!!!" moment that summed up stories of stuff like Dragon ball Z.
Either Tsukishima is actually a lot stronger than he lets on, even though he got his arm chopped off earlier, or , Kubo has gotten bored of this arc and wants to move on to something different, of course he'll segue it nicely.

I guess one question all the new character design begs is - who are the replacement captains if not Rukia, Ikkaku, or Renji? (We're still missing replacements for Tosen, Aizen, and Ichimaru... right?)

So who else do we have if not the two non-captain bankai users? Matsumoto? *scratches head* Anybody got any ideas?

And - in before "Squad 13 is the world of the living squad, and you Ichigo, are the captain. Shirpa herpa derp!"

I liked it. Stupid fighting with Rukia and then showing the enemy that his Shinigami powers were not as weak as they thought.

Wait, Rukia already transferred her powers before and so it can't be done!

Urahara made this special sword for me.

OF COURSE HE DID.

there haven't been any indications so far, so the three seats are still vacant, i guess. the other divisions all have retained their captains (seeing as how no-one died in the fight against aizen)

Still waiting for an explanation for WHY Ichigo has his own Shinigami powers as a NON-dead human being? Still waiting for explanation as to WHY Ichigo's dad is very much alive yet also is a Shinigami??

Still waiting for answers to questions that have existed since basically the end of the very first arc!!!

And no, this latest arc is just total and complete nonsense. The entire thing could have been avoided if Ichigo's move to defeat Aizen simply did not take away all his powers. Such a crock of shiet this manga -______-.

Pretty good chapter. I like the changes the other characters got. But I can't help but wonder why they'd do that for Ichigo. Please don't feed me the friendship bullshit crap. That'd be Rukia's/Renji's excuse, but he was never really that close to the captains, and they aren't really the type to give up their own power for someone else out of the goodness of their hearts.

Hope this is the beginning of another SS arc.


He did semi-defeat Aizen which warrants at the very least a serious favor. Then it was Urahara (and possibly Ichigo's father) which arranged it and they might do favors to him, since he sealed Aizen and have helped them in the past not to mention Ichigo's dad being a former captain. Plenty of reasons for them to help Ichigo. In addition they might know something about the villains and might want to help defeat them.


Squad 11 members make sense; they all have tremendous respect for Ichigo's fighting ability. Byakuya probably feels he owes him for saving Rukia, or he just wants to fight him again. Renji and Rukia can be explained by friendship. The only one who doesn't make sense is Toushiro, but he's a tool anyways who would probably help by just being asked.

You're right, Bleach is terrible. A shonen manga should be right to the point, and each arc should be virtually independent of the others, with each forcing and answering all questions. How dare Kubo write arcs that feature fighting and nonessential characters.

Lawl, ur funny guy. Make sure in your response you continue to ignore the fact NOTHING has been explained about Ichigo's history for the entirety of the manga.

I still read Bleach even though it doesn't seem to have the same epic factor it used to have, such as when Ichigo beat Renji or first used Bankai.

The problem is he just "forgets" a lot of stuff and never explains it, leaving giant inconsistencies and holes all over. I recently went through One Piece and was amazed that the plot actually makes sense and isn't inconsistent, and things that seem to be inconsistent are actually explained and fit in well later.
