Mayuri is badass as fuck, he always was my favorite character. He always looks OP as fuck and never was in a danger situation except from the fluke with Uryu.

Once again a not so bad Bleach chapter. It's quite unbelievable at this point after so many lows.

And the gap between Bleach and Naruto widens even more. (But not because Bleach is getting better XD)

Wasn't the bald guy (forgot his name) almost captain-level ? And the kid is supposed to be one of the weakest captain so the gap shouldn't be this big.. I guess he wasn't really focused

These chapters have actually been good! Just caught up! Also mayuri is a g and that zombie chick is actually a dude?! O.o
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

The bald guy is kind of like an overrated fan-favorite in my eyes. People thought he was strong because he achieved bankai, but it was also explained a few chapters back that his bankai was still damaged or something. He also lost against that big arrancar when he was protecting the pillars.

The fact that these chapters have been better than most chapters going a long way back does not make this better than Naruto to me, even given that Naruto's latest chapters make no sense in terms of powerups and such. Up to this point, Naruto is still following a single, coherent storyline. Plot-wise, I know what's happening and where things are going, I just feel like Kishimoto didn't plan out these final battles right, they got out of hand fast. Here, I still don't know what the hell is going on, I don't know where all these Quincy came from, or why they should be compelling villains, and I sure as hell don't know where they've been keeping all these zombies - on both sides - this whole time. Just about everything I'm seeing here has been an asspull, something a good exposition should have been building towards a long time off. A few chapters that manage not to have asinine comedy or borderline hentai doesn't really convince me that it's good yet.

Not that I'm hating, but I see a lot of comments that Bleach is now better than Naruto, and I simply don't think it's true yet. I do want this series to be good though, I came this far for God's sake.

Ikkaku has this odd personality where he refuses to use his full power in front of people. This stretched all the way back to the start of Bleach. It isn't anything new. It was like Old Man Yama's sub-captain not using his full power as long as Yama was alive. He only used his bankai and full power once and was killed cuz they stole his bankai in the process.

And ya Captain Kurosutchi mentioned it when Ichi was speaking to him when Zangetsu broke in Bankai, that Ikkaku's Bankai was forever damaged and it is now not even half of the power it used to be. He said it about Renji's former Bankai, that was also damaged but it is now apparently fixed cuz it wasn't his real Bankai (like Ichigo).

Has Bleach killed any main / side chars since Heuco Mundo? I stopped reading around that time. I'm just curious because I remember literally nobody on the good guys side died vs Aizen's group.

No, no real mains have died until this arc. I guess KT kinda wanted to do it for the critics or something.

I'm still upset Unohana died. I was very happy when Byakuya didn't.

Well pretty much the main issue I stopped watching Bleach so many years ago was for two reasons. 1. Awful writing. 2. Literally nobody died so there was never an ounce of tension in any fight. It's just, "oh I wonder what kind of BS will win this fight" -> "my power is this! yeah well, my power is this!" rinse repeat x50.

Lots of people have lost fights, some have died and others have had to re-invent themselves. You'll know what I mean if you start reading the manga again (don't want to spoil).

The thing that enticed me about bleach were not the fights per se but the background behind the fights, the stories, the discoveries, the bankais etc. etc. Fights in many mangas are very deus ex machina... you can't have the main character slosing and they're main characters because they pull off something special (like in Halo, Master Chief was picked not because he was best but because he was luckiest Spartan). All manga heroes have a certain je ne sais quoi that's a little bullshit.

Damage report:

-> Captain Commander deceased - + Show Spoiler +
killed by Quincy leader Yuha Bach after his bankai was stolen (we got to see CC's bankai. it was awesome!)

-> Captain Commander's liutenant deceased (happened off screen)
-> Unohana deceased - + Show Spoiler +
trained Zaraki. Turns out Zaraki faced unohana as a kid (Unohana is the original Kenapchi) and for once Unohana and Zaraki both felt like they were being challenged and subsequently enjoyed battle. . As a consequence of that fight and as he almost managed to defeat Unohana, Zaraki subconsciously made a decision not to fight to his full potential in order to be able to feel vulnerable and thus enjoy battle. By killing Unohana he dealt with those subconscious issues and his zunpukuto subsequently awoke....


Lots of other cool stuff happened including + Show Spoiler +
Ichigo re-discovering his Zunpukuto etc. etc.


All in all, bleach has been really good. The only complaint I have relates to pacing and the rediculous fillers - i.e. fights with no consequence to the overall story - but then again that's like every manga EVER!

You should skip the Arc after Hueco Mundo and just start at chapter 480. The managa is up to chapter 592 but some of the more recent chapters (say 540'ish onwards) take like... 30 seconds - 2 minutes to read. That has been what most people have complained about combined with very little relevant story progression and bizzarre sexual references....

P.S. It's been a long time since I seen u on the site Testie. What r u up to these days?
I really wanted a bigger opponent, like Nate Marquardt, or King Neptune, or Zeus, or Zeus and Fedor, or Fedor on Zeus's shoulders, and they can both punch but only Zeus can kick.

if we look at Grimmjopws attack and assume the arrancars were all on the same level

Bald guy at 100% barely beat his opponent, hitsugaya at 100% one shot his opponent with the seal on him he was just weaker then the Arrancar so Hitsugayta with the seal is slightly weaker then baldie

Streamed for the last 4 years straight Mazza, then got injured and haven't been able to stream for 2 months. Will get back into it as soon as I'm healed. Also, damn, that's it? I was hoping more people had died that were always like side-fillerish characters that had no more meaning to the series.

But still glad to see he got some balls to kill off a few people at least. Though.. I am unsure how long they will stay dead knowing Kubo.
