If i intentionally set out to write the worst piece of shit ever known to man i couldn't do a better job than this. Kubo has a gift.who the the numbers in my bankai went from 1 to 10?
>>140148535
On the bright side, at least Kenpachi jobbed to himself and not Gerard.
>>140148535
>I've blossomed.
>>140148535
if people just keep shitting on him when he actually tries to make sense, he's just going to write more nonsense
>>140148535
Aaaand the remaining captain who differed in any way from a generic anime human adult becomes one, just like the other captain who differed from the norm.
>>140148535
Maybe he'll start acting like SS Ichigo.
>>140148535
Im calling it now, hes going to start using fire techniques
>>140148535
Hrm, is this what Matsumoto saw...?
>>140148784
Zaraki still looks like roadkill, not a pretty boy at least.
>>140148535
Looks exactly like Grimmjow
this is purely for inspiring adult Toshiro X Matsumoto hentai doujinshi.
Okay this is too much now. I mean come on. Bach against the Buddha looking guy was reminiscent of children trying to one up each other with each power more ridiculous then the last.
So many false flags of death. I probably wouldn't bat an eye lid if Chad or fucking anyone was beheaded because I know everyone in this series is made of ass pulls. I've been reading this for 3 years and watched the anime for much longer but this is fucking it.
>>140149349
Yeah I was going to say it looks like a ichigo + grimmjow fusion
Is there any low tier goons left for Chad to show off how his powers have grown this time? Or higher-tier goons for him to immediately lose to/
getsuga juishou is just two getsuga's
>>140149349
>>140150148
Holyshit I thought it was ichigo recovering from a fight with an ice guy from the thumbnail
What's happened since the Blood War arc started? Last I heard it had zombies or something, everyone waifud an Esdeath clone, bearded old guy died.
Anything been happening with Aizen?
>>140151100
>Anything been happening with Aizen?
Sitting in his chair.
>>140151100
An endless parade of THIS IS MY TRUE POWER, almost like Kubo is just working down a list of everyone who hasn't shown off their final form yet.
And Aizen hasn't been in it for ages, as far as I remember he's still chilling in his awesome chair.
>>140151070
Same here.
To be fair OP I recall we called this way back when we were doing the whole 'Bleach is so deep and though out lol Aztecs' game.
>>140150286
He's currently fighting clay soldiers with ganju.
so the firstHopefully
>>140151070
I only knew it wasn't Ichigo because of the hair, that is almost identical to Grimmjow's hair.
>>140151577
>clay soldiers
>Ganju's only trick of note was that "turn solid matter into sand" spell
>>140151706
I don't know if they are actually clay. They're just mass produced automatons, as far as I know. No real details on them
>>140151577
Five bucks on "getting overwhelmed but thenthose deceased Fullbringers Ganju was seen with months and months agocome in to save the day"
Can someone summarize bleach since the fullbringers arc

Hitsugay is now an adult? Why? Bankai bullshit?
>>140152110
>>140152256
It's fucking criminal how badass Chad looks yet he never gets to do anything that matters at all.
And no knocking over statue men doesn't matter.
>>140150040
See you next week, anon
>>140152205
>Hitsugay is now an adult?
it's like Bankai magic, few panels prior he looked the same.
>>140151905
>>140148535
Yeah this is some really awful shit. I can't believe he one-upped Kenpachi's Bankai just turning him red.
Literally nothing indicated Daiguren Hyōrinmaru's petals were anything but a countdown before the Bankai faded because Hitsugaya had not yet matured. Suddenly now it's his secret power up? Why didn't he use this before?
The assiest of asspulls, by far. The fight against Yhwach is gonna be hilarious.
>>140152364
>if you have Bankai, you can do Shikai without calling it out loudSince when were you under the impression anything after the Soul Society arc really happened?
>>140148784
Eh, it's all right. His face is less punchable now at least.
>>140152364
While I'm here, has the chart been updated recently? I haven't saved one since Aizen got out.
>>140151004
Byakuya's bankai is just more petals
>>140152337
I see. So this is the greatness of the genius Hitsugaya.
>>140148535
Kubo just gave up on this shit and turned it into pure fujo pandering.
>>140152205
Gon-San kind of deal.
His little body can't handlemy dickso he grows until he can
>>140152781
all those pages of Literally naked Yoruichi is Fuko pandering?
Are there people out there that actually don't think Kubo doesn't even care anymore?
>>140152918
Don't bother with shitposters.
Kubo: Who told you this manga is shit?
>>140152924
If he didn't care, he wouldn't have given us the resolution with Yachiru as Kenpachi's sword spirit.
This is going to blow your mind Anon, but an Author can care about some parts of their story and not care about other parts.
Same way Kubo clearly plans some of it (Yachiru, Unohana, Ichigo was a Shiba, etc) and not plan other parts (most of the rest.)
Are people on /a/ so fucking stupid that they think everything has to be all or nothing instead of iterative works made up of separate factors?
>>140149575
Heathen. There's nothing wrong in /ss/ that already exist.
>>140152677
And his brand new improved Bankai will be even more petals.
>>140152291
Yeah, I know. My heart breaks for Chad everytime he pops up because I know he will either (A) job hard or (B) do cool shit that happens entirely off-page.
I'm pissed about Kenpachi. Like, really? Are we really doing this "Oh, he actually hasn't mastered his bankai and can't handle the full power of it!" This is supposed to be the last fucking story arc. If he doesn't come into his full power now, when the fuck is he gonna do it? How the fuck is Kubo gonna tease us like this and then not deliver.
>>140153220
I bet it'll be something likehe brings the petals onto his body like armor/living sword, both due to influence from Ichigo and from getting over his fear of the dead zone in his fight with Facebook
>>140153330
An armor like his zan incarnation's would be superb
>>140152291
Chad x Ground best ship
>>140153419
He already has wings.
>>140148535
You'd be fine as long as your artistic style is not only good, but fast. It's hard to hate Bleach completely when you've personally enjoyed Air Gear, it's the same thing.
>>140153315
He ran out of ideas, better keep Kenpachi in the back pocket still.
>>140153315
>there's going to be more arcs
>much more
>Toshirou never revealed what would happen if petals die out
>some arrancar assumed the Bankai has the time limit
>We took his assumption as a fact of his bankai weakness
>We also took his assumption as a fact there was espadas goes from 1 to 10
>arrancar was fooled twice as we are
>fuck you kubo and your asspulls
>>140148535
>my real bankai is...becoming Ichigo!
Also I just realized Bleach is a shoujo manga
>>140154034
If the petals falling off is a powerup then why was he always so worried every time it almost happened in all his fights?
>>140149575
>not Toshiro x Hinamori lolicon
>>140154034
in the fucking ds game his bankai died out when he reached 0 petals
>>140154169
He was worried it was happening too fast for the plot.
>>140154169
Old him would violently expel that power and kill all his allies probably.
>>140154169
He was sweating
Odds are it strains him, or maybe the dragon spirit in his zanpakuto which was supposed to be a separate being if I remember right, may influence him
We all agree Bleach is the best comedy manga on the market right now, right?
>>140154520
>we
fuck off.
>>140154210
Yeah you can fuck those Bleach games eternally. I mean Ukitake uses lightning and water in 2 games at least.
>>140154169
Because MANgaya is permanent.
>>140154169
Why would he want to reveal his final trump card unless he desperately has to?
>>140154034
>>140153315
9 days to conquer all, come on man.
>>140155073
So you take the word of a sketchy Hollow?
>>140154034
You are understanding this wrong retard.
His bankai would dispel before because it was incomplete, that was what shawlong said and it was true.
Kubo himself said it
>Before when the petals disappeared so would his bankai. However...
And Kubo confirmed Histugaya completed his Bankai in the time skip
>>140154169
Because WE'VE BEEN TOLD SEVERAL TIMES HIS BANKAI WAS NOT COMPLETE.
Jesus christ are you people retarded or what.
>>140155073
everything he said is right though. I mean I don't think Kubo had all of that planned either, but when there isn't any evidence to the contrary of it...you can't really say anything about it.
It's what is called a soft-retcon, when the author adds something new to the canon that wasn't planned but doesn't invalidate any existing canon.
Like Haki in One Piece.
>>140155122
This, it's pretty simple dunno why /a/ doesn't get it.
-Bankai incomplete = Disappears when flowers go poof
-Complete bankai = what happened this chapter.
>>140155205
There are two people on /a/ who go to Bleach threads.
People who read Bleach, and people who shitpost about Bleach. There is very little overlap between these two groups.
>>140155192
>It's what is called a soft-retcon, when the author adds something new to the canon that wasn't planned but doesn't invalidate any existing canon.
What are you on about man? It was said several times Hitsugaya's bankai was not complete.
Why are you people so annoying about it? Remember what Byakuya said in soul society? even after learning bankai you need to master it, Hitsugaya needed to master it. We've seen it several times with Ichigo, Renji and hell Yamamoto did the same thing.
>>140155122
>>140155205
Except the wording is meant to suggest he ALWAYS had this power, retards.
I'm glad Kubo spent time planning this instead of working on making Urahara's bankai interesting.
>>140155255
>Except the wording is meant to suggest he ALWAYS had this power, retards.
No it's not. Why are you pulling shit out your ass?
>release your bankai you're on your limit
>who said the bankai ends when the flowers melt
In no moment this suggested it was always like this, it's just Hitsugaya replying to what Byakuya said in this same chapter.
>>140155225
Yeah honestly I don't know, there are people genuinely retarded that don't get it. I guess Hitsugaya being a genius and powering up is impossible even if scrubs like Renji or Rukia can.
I'm done
>>140155299
Urahara's bankai was great and incredibly powerful. Kyoraku's was shit but who the fuck cares about Kyoraku
>Haven't read Bleach in 6 months.
>Check out last chapter because I'm bored as fuck

Calling it. The five noble families have connections to quincy and RR
>>140155373
if you liked urahara's you're a boring person
I hope hitsogayya adult version has a hard s personality.
>>140148535
What makes it different from the Zaraki asspull?
>>140155255
Except not really. At best the wording is somewhat vague, but unless you can read moonrunes there's nothing to say that that isn't niggerstreams fault.
>>140155440
>>Since when were you under the assumption that I'm out when the last of my ice petals shatters ?
Literally quoting Kubo
"Before when the petals disappeared so would his bankai. However..."
and in his big interview where he revealed that Shunsui would go Bankai and Ken would learn his sword's name
>Toshiro has mastered his Bankai
>>140154034
>>140154169
I thought this is just the first time he was able to enter post-petal-powerup mode, not that he could do it all along.
>>140155059
well if jobbing twice to aizen isnt a desperate situation i dont know what is
>>140152523
>Since when were you under the impression anything after the Soul Society arc really happened?
That would be so awesome.
The butthurt from fans, at least.
>>140156819
You are correct. The others are being dumbasses
>>140151004
It's a Getsuga that spells out 10
>>140148535
You couldn't even if you tried since you can't literally write a coherent sentence with a decent syntax anyway.

>>140157413
OH MY FUCK THIS MIGHTY ACTUALLY HAPPEN
THEY DID SAY IT WAS THE RYUUJIN JAKKA OF ICE
>>140156617
There's the rule that shikai and bankai must have similar powers. It makes sense with Zaraki because his power is cutting everything. But Hitsugaya's power is making ice, so it makes no sense for him to age.
>>140157488
>power is ice
>it makes him age
>ice

Fuck off, retard.
>>140158267
What did he post?
I'm going to marry Rukia!
Reminder that if you think this is an asspull, then you're wrong. And also if you think his bankai wouldn't have disappeared in the past, then you're also wrong. This has possible for Hitsugaya ever since the FB arc.
Basically Kubo spelled it out for us 4 years ago.
>Leading the young Hitsugaya to become a shinigami, Rangiku's past will be significant to the plot.
>Tite Interview:
>Q: Has Hitsugaya’s bankai been completed?
>A: There is an achievement after the training, it’s completed. Until now, Hitsugaya’s bankai will be removed once the flower petals behind him disappear.. However....
>Q: Is there any other part that has changed?
>A: During the omake chapter 53, Hitsugaya states that he has grown taller, actually he did not (laugh). >Also the chain of his zanpakuto has changed.
>>140157846
It means Ichigo's new bankai are IchiRuki kids.
>>140159144
It's an asspull because growing up has nothing to do with ice.
>>140160036
>cryosleep
>ice age
>>140157846
Will adult Ichigo become a hairy bara stud like his dad?
>Kubo doesn't give a fuck, he just draws whatever the fuck he wants to
>Byakuya was supposed to stay alive, it had nothing to do with fan's outrage
And I'm sure Hitsugaya would still get new form if he wasn't the most popular male in whole manga. Bleachfags, everyone.
>>140160320
What killed the dinosaurs?THE ICE AGE
so why the fuck would he grow, and so much at that? It's his bankai that matured, not him. In shinigami age he's still supposed to be a id.
>>140161770
Heres an idea; wait for next weeks chapter for the inevitable explanation.
>>140148535
At this point it has already become comedy gold to be honest
>>140161987
>Newfags get trolled by Kubo for the first time
>>140160320
Cryosleep would preserve his age, you autist.
Does this mean there's finally a chance of Hitsu getting shirtless after all these years?
Bleach ended after Ulquiorra died.
>>140162030
>Implying Kubo actually intends to troll
You guys lie to yourselfes, Kubo is completely serious about this shit
Is Bleach a fun trainwreck at the moment or just boring
>>140161987
This makes me want to read the last arc, tbqh
>>140162116
Or maybe /a/ just had retarded and impossible expectations for a weekly kids manga?
>>140162278
>impossible expectations for a weekly kids manga
Oh come on, there are plenty of series in WSJ or that have been in it that are miles better than Bleach
>>140162278
>Or maybe /a/ just had retarded and impossible expectations for a weekly kids manga?
Yeah if that's your argumentation I even wonder why the fuck you read manga
>>140162352
Then maybe you should go discuss them elsewhere?

If you want a good story read Seinen.

God this world sure has seen better times
>>140162545

Seinen doesn't equal quality at all, just more tits and gore. There are great seinens and shounens and there are terrible ones like Bleach.

That makes even less sense.

>>140165556
>opinions are a meme
>>140156819
So rather than him voluntarily not going full power because the script prevented it, he wasn't able to do it because the script prevented it. We've seen nothing that explains why he can go Gon-san mode now, and this being Kubo, we probably won't get an explanation at all.
>>140165693
"Muh subjective opinion" is your opinion on the things I stated earlier? That's one hell of a bizarre statement
>>140165461
This was confirmed by Kubo in an interview, stop memeing.
>>140166067
>claims opinion as fact
>gets butthurt when he gets called out for it
>>140166206
People like you should just fuck off. Apparently it is now fucking necessary to read Kubos interviews to understand the shitfest that is going on right now. Do you even realise how wrong that is? Sucking to much Kubo cock is bad for your health
>>140166338

>>140166507
>waah I'm uninformed and its your fault!
>>140166507
It requires basic reading comprehension, if you can't even comprehend bleach you should just kill yourself.
>>140165568
>who said my bankai ends when the petals are gone?
Hitsugaya never clarified that and from that i assume the petal is represent the time needed to fully control the weather and atmosphere.
Beside, the thing that caught my attention is this panels."no always shikai" which refer to kenpachi's soul cutter and Ichigo soul cutter.
considering the teacher/spirit/fake-zangetsu is attempting to halt ichigo growth, There is a chance that zangetsu lied and Ichigo tensa zangetsu is his shikai.
>>140167432
If it was his shikai, Ichigo could've repaired it, no? And I find it unlikely that Mayuri couldn't identify it as a shikai when it was brought to his lab.
>>140167502
It's a possibility due to the unique properties of his soul cutter who contain Shinigami, Hollow, and Quincy properties. Also semi-controlled by fake sword spirits.
Not to mention halting ichigo growth is the Fake-zangetsu goals, not repairing itself is a good move to accomplished that.
I don't mind if you guys keep reading Bleach but please stop trying to tell me that it's actually good.
>>140169950
>stop liking things I don't like
