it shouldnt have ended after aizen wtf, did you forget everything that aizen was after?

also this is actually the final arc now.

Little disappointed that this is the final arc, but we have at least 6 months before it ends. (another year at least probabaly 2 with the anime) so this will be a long drawn out kinda sadness.

lol, what are you talking about? 6 months? Kubo said that there would be 1 short arc and 1 long arc. The Fullbring arc was the short one (took 1 year). Now the final arc is the long arc. Since it's Kubo we are talking about, Bleach will take at least 3 years (the manga).

Oh well, I still like Bleach, I don't want it to end but I don't want it to be shit either. I just hope he handles the new arc good and we'll get a solid and epic final arc.

looks like someone's using Quincy-made hollow bait... perhaps the Quincy never died out? But knowing Tite Kubo it's going to be some huge mindfuck that doesn't actually make sense.

Bleach is bad because the first fifth of the series is a cool story that really isn't at all a shonen, then the next third is a really cool more traditional shonen story but it is filled with all this intrigue and we're getting exposed to a huge cast of characters with extensive history and learning about them and their struggles and how everyone is just a pawn, then the rest of the story is all bullshit that has no connection to the rest of the series, actively undermines themes and concepts brought up previously, and clearly demonstrates that there was no effort given beforehand to building a consistent and believable world.

this. this is so perfectly said in so many ways.

All I want from this arc is a history of Ichigo's dad and how Aizen "knew him from birth". It's the only reason I still read this.

Ok, so this chapter was kind of interesting. A new enemy was set up pretty well and Ichigo looked kind of cool. My big problem here is that two characters who may have been interesting if developed a bit more were brought in for no reason and killed off for no reason. Come on Kubo, basic story-telling here, use what you put in!

This arc would have to be really long to completely conclude the whole series. I hope he doesn't rush it, although it's about time Bleach ended. I think it could be a pretty sweet arc though. There are tons of secrets the have been dangling since the beginning of this manga.

So Mangastream (where I normally read Naruto and Bleach) can no longer host these manga, anyone know a site that will still be hosting the new issues?

Also good point about the short (fullbring) arc taking so long. Guess if I can find the manga anywhere it will last a while longer.

my problem with bleach is mainly that they have interesting characters but no effort whatsoever is spent on developing them. first of all they have too many characters( at least in my opinion). also the plot basically the plots are long and drawn out and the characters never change or develop so it gets old.

still decent art.

personally i hope Kubo takes some chances with the last arc and possibly kills off some characters or just does something different.

I hope it's a Quincy thing. Maybe peoples parents might show a little of their abilities in this final arc. Ishida Kurosaki, better bring back chad or his mayan god grandpa or something (who also is part of a random tribe of ghost fighters like quincys thus making this out to be shaman king.)

Right now ichigo looks a douche being like all "ichigo kurosaki, shinigami representative" I guess he's completely down with the 'being a bitch to the spirit world' thing. Cuz hes a good guy and all. but whawtever feels gay.

And yea introducing these random fucks just so the same captains can come in later and do upgraded shit. well, thats kinda cool if u do it uniquely and write it well but that just has not been happening enough.

Maybe he'll go all out with this "final arc" and use the good plot devices hes been saving

Either way ill read it considering hwo bad it sucks to not know all the canon for something
