If Hirako doesn't at least use his Bankai, he's pretty forgotten to me. In fact, I hope we finally see some Bankais we haven't seen before, it's been too long.

I wanna see Kyorakus and Uraharas bankai but my hopes are not very high <.<
Atleast we are probably gonna see Zaraki do something epic befor Itchigo saves the day.

Man, Bleach is turning into a story about how racism is bad and how a multi-ethnic kid who embodies the best of all his parentages saves the world from racism. There's even Nazis.

I laughed. "All according to plan, now they'll be even stronger with no pesky Bankai in the way!". Good one.

I wonder when Kubo is going to stop having Shinji Hirako stop explaining the trick to his shikai (just to remind the reader what it's doing). Don't help them figure it out like last time when it was used on Aizen. You'd think he had learnt his mistake after that.


It's part of the mind games. He'll explain the ability so the opponent will prepare for it and try to do movements in reverse. Then Hirako will stop using the ability and the other person will think movements are reversed when in fact they are not.

Don't forget the huge power-up, even your words when you speak are reversed.
You try to arrange your sentence to be understandable? Too bad, he stopped his ability!

Just because they're Ichigo's main target doesn't make them THE important guy. All 4 of those guys weren't even in the top 3 of their class.

Considering theres only 1 true story arc in Bleach. To get Aizen, and to now get Bach. Ichigo was the only one to even defeat the important guy period.

If you don't think Byakua or Ulqiorra wasn't an important event bad guy then I'm allowed to name the countless filler #1 bad guys who he defeated along the way.

They were important to Ichigo, but not the overarching strategy or organizational structure. Do you guys REALLY think Byakuya was a top 3 captain? Better than Yamamoto, Shunsui, or Unohana? Grimmjow didn't hold a candle to Nnoitra, and it's hard to imagine Aizen was really oblivious about Ulquiorra's power, and thus would put him at #4 "mistakenly". And lol @ Renji.

The only point I'm trying to make is that Ichigo is likely going to beat the main guy, but probably not touch any of the #2-(6-8) guys.

Byakuya was the final boss of SS he was the one running around making everyone else look like chumps

maybe now that Kubo rolls dice to decide peoples power levels hes not top 3 but he was definently the strongest captain (minus CC) during the SS arc

I think Zaraki is gonna put down someone important. Otherwise all his training (training = killing co-captain) panels will have been for naught.
-I don't think Renji og Grimmjow was important people for Ichigo to take down. They were mainly used as protagonists to shown Ichigo face difficulty and growing into beating said difficulty by sheer plot advancement.
- Byakua is probably borderline top 3 captain, though that doesn't matter too much, because he represented a wrong ideology and it was this ideology Ichigo faught!
- Ulquiorra was the fourth arrancar, but I think it stands to question whether that was his true ranking. Presumably Aizen was not aware of his extra incarnation and seeing how weak Halibel seemed I think it's safe to assume that Ulquiorra is stronger than her. Don't know compared to Barragan and Stark because of how their powers worked (especially Barragan's decay aura.

All that said, I am sad that the manga focuses on captains getting their silly bankai's back. I'd much rather see them fighting without, having some of them lose and others stand tall having developed improved shikai styles.

Except you forget that a shit ton of stuff that was introduce in Bleach has been for NAUGHT! Ichigo power? Lost it, gain it with shikai, lost it, gain full bring, lost it, gain shinigami, lost it again by breaking, gain it again with quincy mix. Combine this whole thing with the whole stealing bankai thingy and the entire fullbring arc and you have ton of stuff that was added that were for naught. So dont bring your hope up and think that logic such as Kenpachi being obligated to own someone important because he gain new power is to be expect :p

edit: My prediction is that Kenpachi is going to come out with bankai or a new power and then kill a few people that hardly matters. Then get his power stolen and dies. Only way to think about Bleach is to think unlogical because in the mind of Kubo, the unlogical is the most logical.

If Hirako doesn't at least use his Bankai, he's pretty forgotten to me. In fact, I hope we finally see some Bankais we haven't seen before, it's been too long.


I wanna see Kyorakus and Uraharas bankai but my hopes are not very high <.<
Atleast we are probably gonna see Zaraki do something epic befor Itchigo saves the day.


Zaraki does something epic before he gets defeated (like before and like all bleach things >.>) and then ichigo saves the day

Zaraki will totally take down a couple of the unimportant nameless steinritters before Ichigo deals with all the important people

When has Ichigo taken down an important guy outside of Aizen?

Byakua
Ulqiorra
Renji
Grimmjow

and saying outside of Aizen is kinda ridiculous since Aizen is THE big bad

Just because they're Ichigo's main target doesn't make them THE important guy. All 4 of those guys weren't even in the top 3 of their class.

I think Zaraki is gonna put down someone important. Otherwise all his training (training = killing co-captain) panels will have been for naught.
-I don't think Renji og Grimmjow was important people for Ichigo to take down. They were mainly used as protagonists to shown Ichigo face difficulty and growing into beating said difficulty by sheer plot advancement.
- Byakua is probably borderline top 3 captain, though that doesn't matter too much, because he represented a wrong ideology and it was this ideology Ichigo faught!
- Ulquiorra was the fourth arrancar, but I think it stands to question whether that was his true ranking. Presumably Aizen was not aware of his extra incarnation and seeing how weak Halibel seemed I think it's safe to assume that Ulquiorra is stronger than her. Don't know compared to Barragan and Stark because of how their powers worked (especially Barragan's decay aura.

All that said, I am sad that the manga focuses on captains getting their silly bankai's back. I'd much rather see them fighting without, having some of them lose and others stand tall having developed improved shikai styles.

The fullbring arc was Kubo fumbling blind around with the story because it was supposed to end with Aizen and probably regretting it halfways through, because how stupid and silly it was. But yes, a lot in this have been for naught, but I do think it kind of extreme to have a captain sacrifice herself to unleash a full powered Zaraki if it then turns out that his full-power is no match for any real enemies. I guess we will see him do stuff against a couple of quincies, maybe defeating Haschwald (rank B) before falling the Yhwach thus letting Ichigo sweep in for the fame and final bosskill.

Zaraki has had a huge powerup (with self-imposed limits gone and bankai available), but is still under the kenpachi's curse. Unohana led a monastic life, avoiding any fight to avoid getting driven by her bloodlust, but Zaraki will show no such restraint. While Ichigo battles Bach, Zaraki goes on to slaughter the 2 remaining Sternritters before turning against other shinigamis as the only remaining targets.

Ichigo comes back victorious but dying to find Zaraki sitting on a pile of corpse, sole survivor and depressed by his lack of opponents. After they kill eachother in a final confrontation, the king of souls looks down, sheds a single tear that gets everyone back to full shape/power, ready for the next arc.
