The flames have vanished......hmmmmmm

Oh and who saved Ichigo? For the love of god stop it with the cliffhangers.

I just finished watching the anime (picked up from Aizen dying).

Fillers were boring as hell... and the Fullbring stuff was boring as hell. Then Ichigo got his powers back and I'm like "Hey, this is actually starting to pick up again and could potentially be interesting!".

ANIME PUT ON INDEFINITE HOLD.

Is it even worth reading the manga? I've always enjoyed the anime more and I don't really want to read ahead if it's never going to make it to anime form.

If the bankai gets stolen that would be the biggest derp moment by a character in shonen jump history.

This would be dumber than Goku blasting an energy sucker with energy like 4 times after his opponent told him he sucks energy.

Its almost the same thing!

Firstly, it seems Yamamoto's Zanka no Tachi compresses its own power into the blade, much like Ichigo's Tensa Zangetsu. And guess what, Ichigo's Bankai can't be stolen, for reasons unknown. It could be because it compresses the Reiatsu/power, and not burst outwards into a more massive Shikai (read: Senbonzakura -> Senbonzakura Kageyoshi). So, Yamamoto could be at ease with using his Bankai because he thinks it can't be stolen for that reason. Or because his Reiatsu is just so massive, the medallion can't absorb it all, like Kirge said when he tried to medallize Kurosaki's Tensa Zangetsu.

Also, no confirmation on Juha Bach being a Shinigami. He just has a sword. So does Bambietta, does it mean she's a Shinigami as well? At most, he could be a fullbringer, since his sword materialized as he used his Quincy Cross, but I doubt it. I say he's a plain old Quincy.

I'd guess anime isn't going to be made for quite a while. It was at the end of the Fullbringer arc when it was cancelled, and we're only in the ~30th chapter after that very same arc.

I was under the impression that Ichigo's Bankai couldn't be stolen because he's some bullshit human/Shinigami/Hollow/Fullbringer hybrid monstrosity and not because of how it works. That would be a really, really big design flaw on the bad guys part if their super weapon didn't work on Yamamoto, and pure trolling from Kubo.

And his outfit + appearance + the way the sword looks scream Shinigami. Or I guess Fullbringer. But Fullbringers (and Quincies, from what we've seen so far) are human and he's 1000+ years old. Nothing about his design reads as Quincy to me, even Ishida's sword during the Hueco Mundo arc (which turned out to be an arrow or something) didn't look quite as "zanpakto-y" as this one.

Bach wears the standard Quincy garb under the cloak.

The sword is whatever, Quincies have a million artifacts they seem to pull out of nowhere like they are all Batman fans.

Also he didnt declare a release.

It's unknown as of yet why can't they steal Ichigo's Bankai. It could be for a number or reasons, but the compressing-type Zanpakuto seems the most likely. Juha seemed quite surprised with the flames went out... My guess is that he did not face Yamamoto's Zanka no Tachi 1000 years previously, so he had no way to prepare against something unknown.

Thank god for Völlstandig, eh?

Man, I don't care what anyone says...this is the best Bleach has been in months/years. Obviously, I would have liked the balls to the wall pacing slowed a little, so I could see Kenpachi and a couple other captains fight, but this entire shoot-em-up melee has been more fun since..imo, the first arc.

Personally, I'm hoping Bleach ends with Ichigo trapped in that box. Kubo has made all of SS useless, time for the Captain Commander to rape this bitch and call it a day. Restore some faith in SS AND end Bleach. Perfect.



EDIT: Wait, have we gone back to Urahara yet?

EDIT2: If CC Bankai gets sealed I'm done reading Bleach. I don't give 2 fucks if Kubo is trolling, because this manga has sucked so much dick for so long that he can do w/e he wants as long as he makes it cool!!!!! Just give us some cool fights and shit, mixed in with some stupid ass story that you make up while you go, and end the goddamn manga.



...and leave Ichigo in that box.


...Forever.

theres no way that tite would give such a badass reveal for CC releasing his bankai if its just gonna get stolen, also there is a way to prevent the bankai from getting stolen, jsut break the medallion if his bankai is as strong as it should be noone exept the boss will ever get close enough to CC to even use the medallion

im allowed to hope arent i?

besides this is literally CCs first battle, he was AWOL all SS arc, his fight against Aizen wasnt really a fight since Extinguisher interupted so quickly, he was absent Fullbring arc

if he doesnt get a good fight now it will be a complete butchering of his character and even if someone does steal his Bankai hell jsut kill that person and move on, plus i wouldnt be surprised if his bankai is unstealable like Ichigos

Yea, I guess I'm too bitter. I should be excited as fuck about this, but it seems too obvious and convenient. I do really hope you are right, and we get to see a badass next chapter with Yama-Jii looking, well, badass. I'm just bracing myself for disappointment

well the good news is that the big bad didnt like the Quincys butting into his fight so most likely that other Quincy is going to make like a banana and split

IMO im hoping Yamamoto and the boss get sealed off somewhere for there fight (kinda like how he sealed off Aizen at the start of the arrancar war) and Kubo goes back to solving all the mysteries hanging around like WTF is happening with Ichigo and Urahara and some of the other confusing shit, maybe deal with all the battles then go back to Yamamoto (show his bankai first though)

If you asked me the important characters of Bleach I wouldn't name anyone we've actually connected with.

I miss Ganju. That guy was the infinite underdog that it became really fun watching him get around SS during the ryoka arc.

Ahhhh, the ryoka arc. One of the best arcs of storytelling across so many mangas. This arc made me a hardcore fan. And then Kubo did his very best to turn me away. It took a large number of chapters, but he sure did it

My money is on CC's bankai either being so uncontrollable he just assumes it will kill whoever uses it; or that the stolen bankai is so weak he's not afraid of it. Probably both. I don't see why he couldn't keep just slicing people up with his 'reduce all creation to ash' shikai.
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

It would be funny if Kenpachi somehow learnt Bankai and got it stolen by Bach. That way CC can go down in a blaze of glory against Bach using Kenpachi's Bankai.
