Is /a/ ready for the ultimate Kubo next week? You thought last week was bad? This next chapter...
>Gotei 13 arrives to see Ichigo killing Soul King
>Gotei 13 except for Rukia turns on Ichigo
>KILL ICHIGO THE DESTROYER OF SS
>Even Urahara lunges at Ichigo to try and kill him
>gone.jpeg
>ichigo leaves SS with his human buddies, Ganju, and Rukia
>The worlds are slowly falling apart
>Last page is Shunsui talking with Aizen
>Ultimate keikaku
>wait, there's another page
>It's completely blank
>>121080230
You mean this week right? It better not be on break again.
>>121080401
Yes. The Kubo was so strong he forgot what day it was.
Things I want:
Grimmjow and Fullbringers to go to the Royal Realm
Lisa and Nanao to interact
An update on Mashiro
The history of the Soul King, Yhwach, and the Quincies
Things Kubo will give me:
Pages doused in ink with none of the above
Never getting off this wild ride.
>>121080230
why is rukia so fucking perfect?
>>121080230
>Gotei 13 except for Rukia turns on Ichigo
>bullshit subzero nuke + bullshit undead immortality state
Have fun trying to kill Rukia.
>>121082267
>implying Rukia stands a chance against Zaraki or Urahara.
Rukia a cute.
>>121082415
Rukia would rek their shit
If not, Rukia and Ichigo would rek their shit in a tag team
>>121082730
Her voice and mannerisms are too masculine, would not lust after.
>>121080230
>Implying there will be no Aizen

>>121082848
You forgot Aizen's speech on abilities
Remember he said"reiatsu son"
>>121082922
Did you not read the post?
>>121082944
Urahara chose Rukia to hold the Hougyoku for god knows how long.
She's got some hidden shit that will probably be revealed.
>>121082267
>bullshit undead immortality
Dude she's exactly the oppsite in bankai. She'd be super easy to kill then.
>>121082267
>Kenpachi takes off his eyepatch
>The force shatters her fragile iceform
It's funny how absolutely no one saw it coming that Ichigo would be the one to kill the soul king and destroy SS.
Oh well, at least he might be able to send all of SS to the shadow realm. Assuming the two realms function independently at least he can save the citizens that way.
>>121082883
Good. Rukias are not for lusting after.
>>121080230
Wow OP, it's like you don't even read this manga. You just described several months worth of content. And that's assuming Kubo started going all out with his plot twists starting this week in an effort to end Bleach. Here's a more likely senario for next week's chapter:
>15 pages total
>3-5 pages of reaction shots and close-ups in regards to what Ichigo just did
>Bach will spout some more cryptic horseshit and generic evil taunting
>No fighting will occur
>Back in SS, nobody will have left yet
>More petty banter between side characters
>At best, they will begin the gate performing procedure
>If we're damn lucky before the chapter ends, maybe we get a one page teaser showing a character or two who we haven't seen in a while
>2015
>bleach
jej
I don't even know when Bleach comes out any more. I like to let it surprise me so I'm always left looking like pic related
I think it's better this way.
>Ichigo kills Soul King
>everyone freaks out
>new page
>everyone has been cut in half
>they are in Soul Society
>everything since Ichigo first fought Aizen has been an illusion
>pan to zoom in frame on Yamamoto opening one eye
>people still trying to push this IT WAS AIZENS KEIKAKU ALL ALONG bullshit
>still thinking aizen is going to be relevant again, ever
Sorry /a/, he's done. His little m-muh war potenshulz, m-muh time confuse scene was a red herring, like so many other ideas kubo's introduced then left to rot. Aizen is over in this story.
>>121084503
Aizen is the ultimate Chekhov's gun right now. Or Schrodinger's plot device.
>>121083776
Yeah that's a pretty good prediction.
All I want is for Ichigo to compliment Rukia's bankai;_;
raws were out mon morning but I was thinking it was too early for a bleach thread. here's the overview. i don't think there was anything to clarify as far as kanji or translations go last week. not that i remember anyway.
>>121083320
inb4 the only way to stop everything from falling apart is for the SK's killer to become the new SK. There has to be a reason Yhwach baited Ichigo into being the one to do it.
>>121085016
I just want them to have 'the talk' about his mom. My heart will never hnnnng so hard.
I still cant get over these chapter names, they're hilarious.
THE SOUL KING DIES
>>121080230
Spreads on soul society crumbling.
>>121087071
Remember this?

This week's issue just dropped in japan this monday.
The chapter we get on thurs is NEXT week's
As usual the thread turned to shipping bullshit. Why do I even bother coming to these threads on any day other than release day.
>>121085877
The thing is, why did Ichigo draw his sword when his objective is to pull out the sword stuck in the SK's body?
>>1210896
Ichigo did not draw his own sword out for battle. He pulled out Yhwach's sword. Just look at the grip/handle of the sword that was in the Soul King. It's the same sword that Ichigo pulled out.
>tfw i ship almost all of the popular bleach pairings
every thread is comfy no matter what
>>121080230
that's like four or five chapters worth of material for bleach
>>121090303
can you post something besides ichiruki
>>121090317
>>121090334
>>121090351
>>121090372
>>121090390
>>121090409
>>121082267
Do you think Rukia will attack her brother?
>>121090326
He's a filthy shipfag, as such he's very similar to furries, you can't ask him to do anything else than that, it's all his meager life is about.
>>121090426
>>121090442
im cool with shipping just not the same ship over and over
Jesus Christ this is pathetic.
>>121090448
>>121090458
I don't have any other ship besides IchiRuki, I'm finishing this doujin then I'll post some cover art or something.
>>121090476
>>121090499
Is Renji going to win the Rukia?
>>121090559
Looks like it.
>>121090559
Going 40 years without talking to her and then attack her, force her back to SS and leaving her in jail like a faggot before finally manning up doesn't do you many favors in winning the girl.
>>121090559
No.
>>121087994
Goddamn it, why is that 3KB different from mine?
Now I have to figure out which is the better quality.
>>121090844
Ok, they're exact.
>>121089947
>He doesn't have an OTP
Disgusting.
>>121080230
>next week
>something really retarded just to push my crap ship
Holy shit, kill yourself
>>121090559
Canon points to yes.
Would Rukia be able to attack Ichigo if she had to?
I mean he did kill the King, and may or may not have to take his place as part of Bach's plan.
>>121091264
No, she wouldn't. Rukia would never believe that he would do something evil on purpose without a good reason. She understands him better than anyone else.
>>121091264
Ichigo stabbed the SK, anything can happen.
>>121090109
Put a spoiler on that shit man.
>Starrk will never appear again
Why even live
>>121091983
I thought the same about Luppi, though.But none of the dead espadas will appear
That anon who said that Hashbrown is Byakuya's father is going to be proved right.
>>121093378
Why and how and why?
>>121093920
Just a feeling. His looks and attitude and behavior.
Surely Kubo will deliver?
Also is there some idn of trick to bypassing captcha Ie. Sometimes i click on th ebox and no captcha pops up but other times it does
>>121093938
Nah bro. I don't think so.
>>121093965
Nope. It's random like that. It's supposed to work for a certain time frame and certain number of posts.
>SK pulls a Behind You
>no limbs so he's on the floor

>>121094440
Good one brah.
>>121082267
God you're so gay
>>121090722
man the random numeros and privaraon were all so much cooler than half the upper ranking espada
>>121082267
Honestly if Ichigo becomes SK at the end I could see them killing of most of the cast only so Ichigo can bring them back to life post apotheosis.
>>121095777
I'm the Soul King.
>>121096368
How can you still be talking then?
>>121097344
Implying something like that would kill me. My body was merely a vessel.
Anyone have some of the old cover art where Kubo was fashion designer extraordinaire?
>>121097899
what like chapter covers, volume covers, or wsj covers?
>>121098673
come to think of it i guess volume covers wouldn't make sense given what you're asking
I want to marry Ichigo!
Too early. It's not coming out till the day after tomorrow.
The Soul King left that body as soon as Bach invaded.
>>121090473
>I am more mature than you guys
>I take anime/manga seriously
>Shipfags are deluded
Did you forgot where you are or you just come here to Bleach threads?
Has chart been updated?
>>121087071
>>121090559
I don't think so.
That idiot just let her go, left her alone for 50 years without even talking to her.
The next time they meet he tries slicing her up while she's unarmed in a Gigai.
He lets her rot in jail and even attacks her rescuers.
Then when he finally gets the balls to do something he gets fucked up without even scratching Byakuya.
>>121100166
he did scratch byakuya.
>>121099682
I am the chart.
>>121100196
I forget.
I remember Byakuya claimed he wouldn't go down on one knee, then Renji forced him onto one knee and Byakuya felt pleased and honored Renji by throwing that scarf at him.
>>121100330
yeah he shittalked him and then said ' your fangs will never reach me'. then after striking renji down byakuya is revealed to have a small cut on his face. he says' your fangs did reach me' and shrouds renji in his scarf as a mark of respect
>>121090559
Byakyua was his rival because he adopted Rukia, Renji was a coward piece of shit and Rukia thought that her childhood family was gone. Renji wanted to take her back into his "family", which originally consisted of him, her and their three dead friends.
Then Ichigo came along and forced Renji to man the fuck up. Now they're friends again.
Who's got /that feeling/ here
>>121100117
Why the fuck did this make me laugh
>that feel when no IchiRuki end
When?
>>121102302
When what?
>>121102486
how fucking hard could it possibly have been to just trace the god damn cleavage from that panel correctly? that gif looks absolutely retarded
>>121102576
Is this better now?
>>121102696
That still doesn't really look like Inoue
>>121102696
>>121102761

>>121100117

Why do Ichigo/Rukia shippers hate Orihime so much more than normal people when they say that she has no chance of winning the Ichib owl?
>>121103937
But I don't hate Orihime, I just hate the ichihime ship, Orihime herself is in my top 3 females.
>>121103937
They feel threatened
>>121104122
So many of them are actually lying and are secretly worrying that Orihime is gonna pull a Hinata and get with Ichigo at the very end?
>>121103866
He can't be evil, right? I mean look at those eyes...
>>121104209
No. Hinata's equivalent would be Neliel.
>>121104209
Orihime is Orihime. Don't involve Hinata here. But yeah, she has even more chances than before in winning the Ichigobowl, and that's why the Ichirukis have been so loud lately
I actually really, really hope Bleach ends with no pairings.
I don't dislike it but I've had enough for a while.
>>121104410
I'm fine with this too. Kubo could take either path. I wouldn't mind
>>121104410
This. I don't hate IchiRuki but I sure as fuck cant stand the shippers that shit up these threads.
>>121104402
>But yeah, she has even more chances than before in winning the Ichigobowl
How?
>and that's why the Ichirukis have been so loud lately
No, they've always been like this.
>>121104410
Same here. Especially since IR shippers in partiular are so obnoxious about their pairing. I don't want to see them get what they want.
>>121104708
Because she has a Bankai and it's not a piece of shit, in fact it's actually one of the most powerful ones so far. She is now worthy to breed with the ultimate hybrid spawn of god.
>>121104980
>she has a bankai
Are you talking about Rukia? If so I agree, but If you're talking about Orihime I gotta say I don't think she has a bankai.
>>121104980
Rukia's bankai is overrated.
>>121105119
Most beautiful Zanpakuto in all of Soul Society.
>>121105038
>>121104980
>>121104779
i have some info about the symbol that follows yhwach about. it is 'hail' in ancient norse.
>>121105172
Meh.
>>121105194
the precipitation i mean
>>121103937
Because Rukia is best girl
and they always want Best Girl to win
even if best girl isn't best for main character
Cause main character isn't always best guy.
RenRuki is the pairing that makes the most sense, but because Renji is just this super shinigami fellow, who nicely fits as Nakama as well as gotei (just like Rukia) anyone who ships IchiRuki knows a RenRuki ends means Rukia will never go back to the living.
IchiRuki shippers know that Ichigo being a real live boy is the biggest threat to their ship. It's the one thing that Orihime really has over Rukia no matter what.
That's why IchiRuki shippers claim Ichigo's been dead all along, or now point out that the tickets mean he's not coming back and will stay a shinigami (rather than the tickets being foreshadowing that the big wigs suspect that Ichigo will be chosen as the replacement soul king)
the Naruto thing made EVERYONE question their shippings.
Well not me, cause every fucking ship I even suspected was confirmed in that end.
>>121105194
It's also an asterisk
like the first bleach opening theme song
>>121105263
>RenRuki makes the most sense
Stopped reading right there anon
>>121105194
Hail as in "hail the emperor", or as in icy pellets that fall from the sky in sizes varying from droplets to bowling balls?
>>121105119
It's really not. A Bankai glass cannon that flash freezes everything within a large range of effect is pretty damn great. It's not properly mastered either, meaning that she's only going to get better at using it and stronger.
>>121080230
>Gotei 13 arrives to see Ichigo killing Soul King

Add in Aizen switched places with Yhwach and needed Ichigo to kill the Soul King the entire time for some reason and 10/10 kuboing
>>121104980
>I can now hold all of these powers!
>Kills SK in nazi-berserk due to touching a foreign sword
Aizen was right.
>>121105380
the precipitation. but i was loling at the ambiguity
>Best girl will never get a real fight
Kubo why.
>>121105570
Because Karin is too young to fight.Karin is Ichigo without angst, she'd make great MC.
>>121105328
Ichigo ending up with no one would make the most sense. If Kubo had decided to make IchiRuki a thing then he would have pushed it more, but they actually seem to act more like bros than ever.
>>121105380
>bankai glass cannon
Exactly. She is useless
>>121105328
You are literally proving my point.
The acknowledgement of the couple that Kubo has made a point to show together almost CONSTANTLY ever since the arrancar arc is completely refused because IchiRuki shippers don't want to think of a scenario where Rukia has a reason to stay in soul society
even though she's done so for 2 years
>>121105651
If it hits she wins. It's the moments after invoking it that leave her vulnerable to attacks, also literally cracking up.
>>121105673
Two friends being together makes complete logical sense though. If anything, Renji and Rukia have the least romantic relationship in the entire series. Anyone who sees anything else out of Renji and Rukia has RenRuki shipper goggles on so tight they're going to go blind.
>>121103555
Kubo had more detail back then
>>121105626
I'm waiting for her to show up manifesting Quincy powers or some shit. She was going to Urahara for a reason.
>>121103555
So, if anime comes back, how possible is that it'll have a soundtrack filled with nasheed tunes?
>>121105732
Nobody is going to wait for her to defrost slowly in a battle. One hit and she is in pieces
>>121105820
That opportunity already passed
>Mexicans
>Islamic Jihadists
same thing, they're all brown
>>121087071
>>121087840
>>121105860
You won't know it's coming unless someone tells you about it beforehand. Besides even just her Shikai is powerful enough to deal with most opponents.
Face it, Rukia can hold her own.
>>121105820
Or Wagner samples
>>121105943
Not to mention she's one of the most proficient kido users in the series.
Can someone post the "Ask Aizen" picture, I wanna ask him if this is the end for Mr.Asspull
>>121105982
That's not saying much, though. Most Kido users use stuff more shitty that Ikkaku's shikai.
>>121089820
>>121105982
Not really, she just uses it, which is a huge plus.
>>121106008
where my shunsui bro's at?
>>121106017
>>121106030
What I mean is that she uses the lower level spells to great effect, like when she fought Aareniero, obviously she can't use the top level shit like Aizen and Yama-jiji
>>121105943
Nope. She is still very vulnerable and can't deal all alone.
>>121106109
Pump her full of "blut". Problem solved.
>>121106083
I'm with LoN here - greatest thing is that she actually used it consistently.
>>121106072
In Squad 1 I think.
>>121106083
She rarely uses kidoh anymore though.
Kidoh mostly works well against slower, or stupid opponents, unless you're ACTUALLY a kidoh master, like momo, aizen, urahara, etc.
But also, I think that one anon is very confused about the term glass cannon
it means it's EXTREMELY useful.
Once.
Which is fine for Rukia, since Byakuya and Renji are always watching her back.
It was also strongly implied that Rukia's just too inexperienced with bankai, and that with a little more training, she'll defrost without cracking.

Which is silly because Soi Fong's bankai has the same problem, and no one faults her for that.

>Implying it wasn't about her Onii-san being an angsty little shit

Karin deserves her own spin-off that isn't shit.

We havent seen more than a Soukatsui from her, which is thirty-something hado...What proficiency are you talking about?
Would you a Matsumoto?
>>121106156
Ew.
>>121106469
When I said proficient, I was trying to say that she is one of the only people that consistently uses kido, instead of relying entirely on her Zanpakuto.
>>121106179
How the fuck is Shunsui not Mexican?
>>121106156
More Quincy Ichigo/Rukia where?
>>121106548
Since the timeskip she used kido only once against Riruka...
>>121106563
too cool for the hue
>>121106721
And that's still more than most characters.
Why don't I have any images of Rukia femdomming Ichigo?
>>121106756
Yumichika and Hisagi are still better
>>121106762
I can fix that
