Ichigo, it's time for the truth. I loved your mother, but we each had our kinks. As you have probably guessed by now, you were conceived in a reaper-human-quincy-hollow-ginger orgy.

This might be the best explanation so far.

The show is okay, but I think the story moved too slow.

id point out how it makes absolutely no sense at all for Quincies to be declaring war on the Shinigami and having fused with hollows or something and point out all the parts of the manga that support my side of the argument

but whats the point....?

This is exactly what Bleach's problem is. First an unknown group declares war out of nowhere and then he starts explaining their background. It's far more epic if the tension slowly builds up to a boiling point. It's like he's telling the story backwards.

Still hope Kubo manages to end the manga in an epic way. We'll see what happens.


You nailed it. Kubo is just a very inept story-teller. It feels like he does not have a long term plan at all. Story wise, things have gone from bad to worse, especially with the rehash of certain gimmicks (last moment save of Ichigo/Ishida/random shinigami's etc etc). This gives me the idea he's making up shit as he goes along. Such a shame.

There are no indications that this arc will be better than the ones before.

That's the biggest problem. Kubo's not a story teller but a character generator. He has admitted in the past that when he is stuck on a story, he makes up new characters to move it along. He's also devoted way too much time developing very minor characters while not developing some major supporting characters enough. He seems to be incapable of figuring out which of his characters are more important to the plot.

During the arrancar arc, for example, Ulquiorra and Grimjow were really the only important espadas in terms of plot. Yet Kubo gave a back story for pretty much all of them and even some of their useless fraccion. Same with the recently completed arc. Only Ginjo and Tsukishima were important enemies yet everybody received a back story at the cost of glossing over Ginjo's and Tsukishima's back stories, which should have been fleshed out more.

Ichigo surpassed the vice-captains roughly 400 chapters ago. They're pretty much useless in terms of power levels. In terms of emotional connection to the main character and the plot, only Rukia and Renji are important. Yet Kubo still continuously gives screen time to many of them.

I don't get why Ichigo was acting like the guy who was standing on his bed was going to attack him...Can't a guy just appear out of no where and stand on someone's bed without having to fight for his life?

Also the war should have been against the hollows. Just stupid that it's vs anyone else.

The question that I don't see anyone asking which side with Ishida take? Yes they are apparently fighting the Quincys but they see to have been corrupted by Hollows. So are they more like quincys with fullbrings?

Uryu isnt on the Quincys side, hes said before that he sided with the Shinigami and agreed with there actions against Quincys (aside from the one who killed his granpappy) so theres strong evidence that Uryu will be fighting the Quncys

so im guessing next Chapter hell switch sides

With KT at the head of the script, it is plausible that they have big dongs that launch liquid zeros or some crap like that.

I think they should just end the anime/manga with Kenpachi getting Bankai + Hollow Powers and destroying the world.

Kenpachi should have gotten his bankai when his power level still mattered. Obviously these Quincy that are going to declare war on the shini's are all powerful 'that have been watching the whole aizen etc .. thing from the start!' they'll defeat all the major characters instantly because Ichigo will need to rescue them. All of the masks you see will become characters - sort of like the espada.
They're killing off the people of soul society.

Now this arrancar dude quincy is going to ginjo on ichigo, telling him he needs to join them - or they fight because Ichigo is already 'too far gone'.

Then the same thing will happen with whatshisface quicy dude with the glasses.

Ichigo wins, goes to SS, beats everyone, gg bleach.

Just roflmao. Bleach is such utter trash! Art is terrible. Plot is a tragic joke. The dialogue is abysmal. Sers how bad is this shit? Every time there's a conversation it ends in some horrendous punchline.

Sers how does Kubo live with himself?

Exhibit A:
By the way... you didn't tell us your name.
You're right. I'll tell you. IVAN.
I don't know who you are... BUT GET OFF MY BED!

Exhibit B:
By the way, it's not yesterday. It's two days ago. YOU SLEPT ONE FULL DAY!

Awful. Just awful. I wish there was some way I could show Kubo how much of an anti-fan I am.


Hey, I am completely fine with you dissing on everything Bleach right there but the art not that bad. The art is the only thing they got going correctly lol unless the artist develop Turret Syndrome and start scribbling everywhere -.-


I dno. The art's been pretty terrible lately. Kubo puts random lines and vectors all over the place just to fill up space because he's too lazy to draw actual details. His characters in many panels are just basic outlines. In areas where there should be detail and contour lines he's just putting shade patches and not even those are well drawn. Just look at his technique for drawing necks. All you see are a bunch of straight lines that end in a black blot.

Example: http://www.mangareader.net/bleach/481/12

Example of good manga art: http://www.mangastream.to/air-gear-chapter-311-page-16.html



Meh I like his artstyle. But he's changing it all the time. He almost never draws backgrounds/surroundings anymore which is really a shame because it keeps his characters almost floating in nothingness. His battles have become incredibly weak, almost incomparable to the beginnings of this manga...

Kubo has managed to master this minimal effort technic. Every damn week you get 18 pages of almost nothing. These mangas are best consumed when you can read 50ish chapters at once. Then it's good again.


Comparison with Oh Great! is a little unfair, though. Air Gear pushes out the same amount of pages biweekly. Besides, Oh Great! is WAY better an artist.


I find Bleach and Air Gear have a sort of parallel history. They both start out strong, but then fizzle down. I guess the difference is that Air Gear lasted longer. The art in Air Gear is really good though.
Now, for new chapter, three different plot lines all introduced in quick succession. This is good, at least one of them has to be good.


Well, I don't think i'd say "unfair." It's comparing a bad manga artist with a good manga artist. Oh Great! might do bi-weekly but his quality is better than twice as good as Kubo's. I'm not saying Kubo's should have to be on the same level of detail and quality but it should be at least in the ballpark. Kubo's is just god awful at times. Look at the new guys who just showed up to declare war on the Gotei 13. They're literally figures with black faces and a tiny black strip across their chest. They don't even look remotely cool or detailed. And they're all standing stiff as wooden figurines. It's just blargh!

Lol yeah see, the guy right above me has the right idea. Such awful awful art for a manga as popular as Bleach. It's truly embarrassing. And it's not like he has story to make up for it. So what does it have? Bad story, bad art? What's left?!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shounen_manga
The term shōnen, shonen, or shounen manga (少年漫画 shōnen manga?) refers to manga marketed to a male audience aged roughly 10 and up. The Kanji characters (少年) literally mean "few" and "year".

Yeah there is supposed to be an enormous forcefield around the whole complex and they just stroll the fuck in.

I bet some of you forgot about that forcefield. Or dont even know what Im talking about.

THAT's classic Kubo.

Do you remember Ganju? I don't.

I see Bleach kinda like Lost, it had a great start, great premise but got lost in their own plot.
