It's out.

How many times Orihime said Kurosaki-Kun?
...
Why is Orihime in this fight? Even Yhwach has commented on it. There has to be a reason she is at the presumed final boss fight.
>>141715179
kubo's rounding up all the characters for that one last fight. it's near boys. i can feel it.

Also her power is technically a big fuck you to that whole prediction and fixed timeline bullshit
>>141715260
That one is shit for prompting new discussion. Besides, it's an Aizen thread, not a new chapter thread.
>>141715260
thats not even the proper thread dumbass
>>141715220
Twice?
also
>...
Post your face when everything was an over 1000 years long Keikaku by Yawach.
What would be the next meta-keikaku? Ichibei's?
>>141715299
If we stay on the fight next chapter, I think we'll actually get a few more words from Orihime. I really, really hope that she doesn't get relegated to being a Kurosaki-kun bot.
>>141715302
Soul King's
>>141715302
That Aizen's betrayal was part of his keikaku.
He did say everything had to line up perfectly and Aizen was involved in that.
>>141715173
>So, they teleported to the vanderreich using one fo those quincy teleportation devices, but as the vanderreich is now located in the royal realm they got into the royal realm without having a key... is that more or less how it went?
Yeah, seems so.
>>141715333
to add to this, it's the same gate that Uryu told Ichigo and co to use before Toofsy showed up. It's called the Gate of the Sun or something
>>141715333
wrong, the royal realm is the vandenreich not the other way around. it's why they needed no bullshit key like the squad 0.
>>141715351
Didn't Toofsy say he destroyed them all? It had something to do with the medallions. It'll be interesting to get more backstory on Soken.
>>141715299
WOW.. and she said nothing more..?
>>141715327
And this happening too, and Urahra and Mayuri, which needed of the promotion of Hikifune, etc
I'm glad kubo is acknowledging how much a bizarre freak of nature Ichigo actually is
>>141715351
Not they say it on the same page, it's a gate ryuuken's old man placed and used to leave the vanderreich when he was expelled.
>>141715395
the fuck?
Why are you even here, did you even read the chapter?
>>141715395
She did say 'wait' as well.
SOON REUNION!!
... As Urahara said
Is this building up to "all the nakama vs. Ywach" or are Chad and Uryuu going to be left out?
I think the most interesting thing about this chapter is how Ichigo is recklessly running towards Yhwach, putting both himself and Orihime in danger.
Even Yhwach pointed this out on a previous page. What is Ichigo's plan?
>>141715461
I think Chad will be dealing with the statues for the rest of the story. Renji and Rukia are going to have to pass both Chad/Ganju and Ishida, so it'll be interesting to see what happens.
>>141715398
And that Tousen and Gin had to betray as well and we know Gin's betrayal is due to Rangiku getting raped, so her rape was also keikaku.
Literally everything is his keikaku.
>>141715466
>What is Ichigo's plan?
Being a Leeroy Jenkins moron like always.
But instead of yelling his own name Orihime does that for him.
>>141715466
He is being reckless as usual and someone (probably Rukia) is going to have to snap him out of it. There's no point in delegating defense/healing to Orihime if you're not gonna let her defend/heal you.
>>141715374
I think yawach transformed or mixed the royal realm and the vanderreich into his own quincy royal realm.
>chapter 629 was called gate fo the sun
>>141715466
I've been noticing the raining in a single panel after next, is it about Masaki Kurosaki?
Kubo doesn't really want to show it right away but surely at this pace, might take a month to get the whole point across.
>>141715179
CALLED IT
FUCKING CALLED IT
REAL LAST QUINCY UP IN THIS BITCH NOW
>>141715466
I don't think he has a plan, and to be honest, I think when Rukia gets there, she may say some brief words to him, and he'll straighten out. I know it sounds cliche, and it's been done before, but it's what I expect.
>>141715430
That good character is Inoue...
>>141715490
Yamamoto losing his arm and refusing orihime's help to restore it was too?
Not that yamamoto having both hands had mattered though but...
god damn it.
>>141715386
>>141715417
it's a little hard to tell, be the emblem appears to be the same as the one Bazz, Jizzelle and Liltotto used earlier. I imagine the gates aren't necessarily fixed, and Grandpa Ishida stole one when he left ages ago
>>141715514
That's the thing, why bring her along? Ichigo should have just told her to help Chad. Better yet, tell her to help out Ishida who is going against the second in command.
>>141715466
So that Rukia and Renji can snap him out of it.
PRobably they will try to freeze Yhwach with Rukia's bankai since its absolute 0 then it wont work. After that we will get some NUMBER ONE scene
>>141715414
Why cant Yhwach see why Ori is there?
His eyes are opened
>>141715525
Rain has always been symbolic of Ichigo's insecurities because of his mother. It would make sense that because he's struggling and because he's being reminded of his mom that there are references to that symbolism.
>>141715534
>yfw he pulls old ass quincy techniques that Ishida did not know yet
He'll pull a Let Stilz or some shit?
Rukia was looking good in this chapter
>>141715557
Literally. Everything.
Remember that time Chad's powers were said to be from Hell, but he got them from Ichigo, who is similar to Keikaku-San, which makes the Hell Powers actually Quincy Powers.
Now remember all the way back at the beginning the random ghost that got sent to Hell and this was before Chad got his powers?
Keikaku.
>>141715572
Yhwach said he isn't using the Almighty.
>>141715525
of course.
that last panel on the page here is him looking up at rain too.
>>141715466
He's thinking about how his mom died, and that's why he's being so damn impulsive.
I'm starting to think that this isn't going to end with Ichigo beating the big bad, but with Isshin showing up with the ghost of Masaki.
>>141715564
>not keeping to biggest slut near you
topkek mate, all he does is securing that she does not rape ishida
>>141715534
everyone fucking called it
>>141715576
Rain pours down for him. For everyone else the sun is rising
>>141715548
>and it's been done before, but it's what I expect.
Kubo wouldn't do that again, would he?
>>141715567
If Rukia goes bankai again, especially against Ywach, it will probably put her in mortal danger because we've already seen it once before and been made aware of its weaknesses.
People can talk about Orihime catching death flags but that would be on a whole other level.
>>141715589
So fast colored!!
>>141715567
I don't think Rukia will go bankai, especially considering how dangerous it is.
>>141715564
She's an observer, anon.
Think of it this way, there was a chapter near the very beginning of the series where Orihime is walking alongside Ichigo and Rukia, and she's looking a little down, a statement shows up
"I didn't notice it at the time but..."
And it's never brought up again, period.
What if Orihime's main purpose in the manga is to be the observer to Ichigo and Rukia's story?
Maybe she's relaying this story to her grand kids about her amazing adventures from when she was a young woman.
DO IT KUBO
>>141715640
>Rukia gets killed using her bankai
>Orihime heals her up
magical
>>141715557
Yamamoto having 2 hands would mean Yama wouldnt have gone soft and would wipe out the Quincy alone
>>141715564
I see little reason to assume Ichigo specifically brought her with him for a particular reason. It's more likely that Kubo decided she should be there to develop as a character or because of some other plot point that has yet to be revealed.
>>141715688
still would have had his bankai stolen
>>141715466
>>141715525
>>141715576

>>141715665
The Keikaku Continues
>>141715658
There will be something that lets her to use it better, maybe a shield from Orihime.
>>141715704
We can't know that for sure, Ywach said he was the only person strong enough to steal his bankai and Yama had gone soft. If he was as strong as in his rape years he might wipe the floor with him too
>>141715733
I got nothing against ichiruki but

>>141715753

>>141715778

Great now we just need Tessai to teleport himself into the plot
right Kubo.....
Kubo?
>>141715698
Why wouldn't she help Chad? With his record, it seems obvious that he would need more help than Ichigo.
Maybe she'll show us something before the Shinigamis save the day. Who knows.

Chad is strong enough to take care of fodder and Ichigo is the only one with any hope of defeating Yhwach

>>141715757
that is renji and rukia running through rubble
>>141715753
That's what Yhwach once you to think, fillers are actually the canon and the canon is actually the filler and the movies are actually the mango.
The keikaku is beyond you.
>>141715765
The most glorious master of all, even Checkmate was his keikaku.
>>141715883
Chad has never had trouble with fodder.
This chapter only needed an Aizen panel and a "behind you" one to be 100% pure unfiltered kubo.
>>141715720
first page, you should see some sprinkle waters start to happen. 3rd page, soft raining there and 6th page, rains on your view of point from looking at the sky.

Thats pretty likely to happen Tessai coming and saving the day with teleports and za warudo
>Ryuuken enters the fray
Fucking yes, his swag is only second to Aizen, can't wait to see him fight again.
>>141716035
Tessai is too powerful to have in the plot
He can just teleport, time stop and stab anyone who wants in the brain
>>141716018
Ichigo is getting flooded by sadness then, the very thing zangetsu/yawach told him he hated the most... is this ichigo's plan to defeat him?
can it work?
>>141715733
>shitposting shipfags
Every single time.
>>141715698

She hasn't done that yet. Ichigo placed his confidence in her and she hasn't followed through. Well, that's mainly a moot point considering how silly Ichigo is fighting right now.

he is trying to scope out the abilities of his opponent. Ichigo is tanky as fuck, and he has a sustain/defense support. As long as Ichigo avoids critical hits, he can keep trying to break Yhwach's defense and hopefully trade some damage.
>>141715914
No, but the fact that I mentioned nothing about romance in my original post and the response of yours talking about an "innate and cliched romance" hints that mentioning Ichigo and Rukia together, with or without mention of a relationship, irked you enough to bitch about it. Sounds like a Himefag thing to do.
Deny all you want, but Bleach is Ichigo and Rukia's story, it's why they're considered the two MCs.
>>141715753
This one is approved by Kubo so it's alright.
>>141715589
>>141715656

Ichibei is on a different level.
Ywach cant even use kidou anyway, and Almighty wouldn't be helpful against time stop
Only reason Ichibe didn't stop time against him is for plot reasons
>>141716148
Right, but he isn't coordinating at all. Orihime tried to stop him and either heal him up a little or coordinate with him, yet Ichigo just ran back in.
Even Yhwach comments on his rashness, telling him that he's charging in recklessly.
>>141715466

Why are Bleach threads so happy go lucky compared to the One Piece threads?
You guys don't seem to take the manga very seriously.
>>141716160
Beautiful!
>>141716270
>You guys don't seem to take the manga very seriously.
Where do you think you are?
>>141716270
Just wait until tomorrow or the next day, it'll be shit posting galore. Usually these threads are good on release days.
>>141716270
>>141716270
Actually the opposite. Bleach threads takes Bleach with just the exact amount of seriousness it needs
>>141716130
>She hasn't done that yet.
It's been a grand total of two chapters. Give it time.
>>141716270
Because at this point, it's like watching WCW in 2000. The story is a convoluted mess brimming with asspulls, and the battles also suffer from being horribly overbooked.
>>141716163
If you can't handle shipping without raging like a sperg in a Bleach threaed you can always get out anon
>>141716270
>You guys don't seem to take the manga very seriously.
I don't even think Kubo takes it seriously anymore
>>141716337
It's not about handing shipping, it's about shipping on release day. It's fine to shit up threads during the week, but fuck off for at least a day.
>>141716157
He only said the animation was good. Nothing about the plot
>>141716270
Most of the people who still read this series haven't taken it seriously in over half a decade. I guess the same isn't true of One Piece fans.
>>141716316
>It's been a grand total of two chapters. Give it time.
I guess. If Renji and Rukia get to the throne room, I'm assuming that nothing will happen with Orihime. With the way people teleport in Bleach, I don't have very high expectations.
Something might happen if the fight continues with Ichigo / Orihime or Ichigo / Orihime / Isshin
>>141716360
There is always Ichiruki in Bleach threads anon, you just need to calm your autism
>>141716113
if the rain of sadness that zangetsu told ichigo he hated has something to do with the plan/plot/ defeat of yawach I will go to japan and start a cult to adore Kubo.
>>141716224
I'm sure ichibei could stop time too if he considered it would have helped against yawach. He is the creator of hadou and kido after all and knows the true name of every technique.
>>141716160
Very nice. Keep up the good work.
>>141716138
Oh porky-kun :3
>>141716395
>here is always Ichiruki in Bleach threads anon
Just because it's always there doesn't make it okay.
>>141716386
Sure, maybe nothing will happen. I certainly consider that to be a possible or even likely outcome. But if this is an opportunity for character development, there's no way it'd unfold this quickly. Bleach is nowhere near that fast paced. Heck, most Shonen series aren't.
People who were expecting Orihime to bust out some new technique and punch a hole through Ywach's skull simply don't have reasonable expectations.
Post yfw this thread is also part of Yhwach's keikaku
>>141716471
>Orihime to bust out some new technique and punch a hole through Ywach's skull simply don't have reasonable expectations.
What are reasonable expectations then?
I refuse to believe Aizen and his betrayal was part of Ywach's keikaku.
First, because it would mean both main antagonists had this same ridiculous plan of cultivating some ultimate being out of Ichigo.
And second, it would besmirch the greatness of Aizen. Having him be some pawn in Ywach's redundant plan.
I wont believe it. In fact, Ywach smugly thinking Aizen's keikaku was part of his keikaku was actually part of Aizen's keikaku from the beginning.
Orihime and Rukia will be in the same room as Yhwach during the final fight.
Which one is going to die?
>>141715179
It's about fucking time. Now when is Aizen going to reveal that Yhwach is under his control?
>>141715534
yes, you, and you alone are the ONLY ONE in this ENTIRE PLANET that foresaw two major characters being involved in the last arc of a series.
bravo. Hope you feel really accomplished and special for your unique prediction that no one else had.
>>141716635
Ichigo. End game is Rukihime
>>141716654
>Aizen was after Yhwach's chair all along
>He wanted to quite literally sit in the heavens
>>141716531
>>141716488
The minimum bar for improvement I'd say would be keeping pace with Ichigo, defending and healing and showing some kind of synergy. Which is more or less where we are now. How Orihime reacts to Ichigo not cooperating seems like the first obstacle. Whether she can do something to snap him out of it or if someone else (Rukia, Isshin) will have to do that would be a significant development.
As far as high end expectations go I guess doing something to nullify Ywach's powers or maybe landing an offensive hit on him for once. Or anything that gets him to acknowledge her existence as more than "that woman".
>>141715660
Ishida does the exact same thing about Orihime and Ichigo in Hueco Mundo
it's a narrative device. It's highly unlikely that Kubo would give a line so early on and not touch on it at all until the very end.
The most we got was Isshin saying "That night" but we already knew something was up cause he got the dates of Masaki's death wrong.
>>141716757
>Whether she can do something to snap him out of it
This is the biggest thing for me. Ichigo is obviously not in the best state of mind. Orihime has tried once already to get him to wait, but he blew right past her.
It's going to be interesting to see who gets Ichigo out of this mindset. Will Orihime finally be able to connect with Ichigo? Or will it be left to the same old characters?
Whatever the case, I hope we still stick with the Ichigo / Yhwach fight for next chapter.
Why hasn't this fuckboy released Bankai?
You'd think you'd want to fight the big bad using his godpowers at full strength.
>>141716531
>Aizen noticing yawach keikaku to use it in his own kekaku
>but that was yawach keikaku too
>so aizen overturned his keikaku to use the ikau to dominate all keikakus
>yawach foreseen the future of all keikakus and thinks he is the keikaku master
>aizen knows this and his keikaku take sinto account that yawach is the keikaku master so his keikaku is superior
WHERE DOES THIS END?!
>>141716870
Slow and steady wins the race.
Ichigo being provoked and fighting like a retard again
>>141716891
We love character development here in Bleach. It's good stuff.
>>141716873
>WHERE DOES THIS END?!
When they both realize their keikaku were just part of a bigger keikaku made by the true mastermind
>>141716885
Looks like he's fucked unless daddy helps him get on his feet to recover.
>>141716531
you aren't understanding ywach's position
ALL quincies exist for the purpose of gaining strength, dying, and returning to Ywach.
what Ywach was waiting for was a quincy that would be born with shinigami powers (royal shinigami at that) because quincies are inherently weak. They rely on the reishi around them. It's the environment that makes them so much more powerful. A shinigami, especially one with a hollow element to him, is a whole slew of power that is otherwise unobtainable by quincies.
Rather than inventing something like the hou gyoku and experimenting constantly in order to gain a perfect 3-way hybrid, (which a proper 2 way hybrid took aizen a couple hundred years, and that's only because Urahara was ALSO working on it) Ywach just foresaw that it would happen on it's own. So he waited. Since he couldn't do much anyways for 1000 years.
it's not his keikaku.
It's just good timing.
>throwing himself at yhwh over and over again
Has Ichigo ever shown tactical prowess? I'm thinking about Shonen protags in general and even the dumbest ones have a couple moments where they use their brain. Ichigo does nothing but try to overpower.
>>141717011
Why didn't he just have Gerard swing his massive cock and kill everybody?
>>141717011
Yawach can see the future, of course it's his keikaku.
>>141717076
I think the worst part of the fight is that he has such a strong defended / healer in Orihime backing him up. If utilized correctly, the combo is almost impossible to beat.
This really highlights that Ichigo is unable to control his emotions, no matter how much time passes.
What if he Yhwach fucked up and got Ichigo killed along with Masaki by Grand Fisher?
>>141717076
If I remember all his fight correctly his main moves are: attack head on, getsuga tenshou, and 2fast 2furious head on attacks with getsuga tenshou
>>141717076
he is even more stupid, because he is even trying to overpower without having released his full power yet.
>>141717080
well, here's something I'll point out
Gerard is now a giant energy being
lille is now multiple energy birds
Askin is now enveloped in a giant energy sphere (though he's dead)
I'm guessing that as soon as juha starts losing, he's going to suck up the very form of those quincies.
>>141717110
huh?
Why would you have a keikaku at all if you could see the future.
Ywach sees what will happen, if he had a plan to make that future different, then the first vision of the future would include that plan.
Foresight and anticipation are very different things.
>>141717271
>as soon as juha starts losing
How? Yhwach has literally every power.
>>141717318
except The Heartof the Soul King
>>141717341
I know you're joking, but he'll just absorb it after Gerard's inevitable defeat.
>>141717359
But not before he starts losing.
>>141715179
So Yhwach wants to absorb Ichigo to become transcendent and reach Aizen's level. Neither Bach nor Gerard are transcendent if their reiatsu can be felt.
Never Forget.
>>141717011
>>141717271
Slightly confused as to when quincies got the whole shikai/bankai powerset. I thought it was arrows, reinforcement, little magic with a power-up of 'super arrow that kills your powers'
>>141716224
>>141716420
Nowhere did it say that Ichibei is a kido expert.
>>141717431
Transcendency doesn't exist anymore because Aizen doesn't have the Hougyoku anymore.

Where did Kubo say this and he must have hogyoku still because he is stronger than monster aizen now.
>>141717527
She's done a decent amount so far. She has shielded two of Yhwach's attacks. Her role will be defined the next time we see Ichigo and Yhwach.
I like how Kubo draws Orihime when she's despairing. He's talented at that.
>>141717527
T R U E
I think I know why Yhwach wants Ichigo. If Ichigo has the king's power then he is the only one who has a perfect set.
Think about it. Yhwach leaks powers and abilities everywhere to the point that he'd lose all abilities and become a blind, deaf and numb undying corpse if he didn't keep on absorbing abilities. Jugo has the power, but his is so weak that he can't even use it properly. That only leaves Ichigo, the only one who grants and absorbs power and doesn't suffer from any of the drawbacks.

>>141716635
All of them.
Then Orihime rejects it post-mortem and they fuse into one being
>>141717620
Couldn't you wait until tomorrow, anon? Just one day?
>>141717469
Souken focused on the "old way" of the quincy, which did not rely on schrifts and other gifts of ywach. The sanrei glove was a way of elevating a normal quincy's power rapidly, simulating volstandig without needing ywach.
My guess is that back when Ywach invaded soul society 1000 years ago, they largely lost due to bankais, so before he came back, he developed the schrift/volstandig combo as a way of combating them.
Yamamoto killed a LOT of the first round of quincies, so I'm guessing they didnt have the schrifts and volstandigs.
In fact, it's possible the auswhalen was to gather power so he could bestow schrifts to the new team.
>>141717605
Ichigo and Aizen are the only ones with the potential to become transcedent(Hogyoku cannot grant wishes unless you have inherent potential to achieve them yourself) and remember that Aizen wanted to absorb Ichigo himself.
I AM FUCKING HYPED
BYAKUYA'S NEW POWER CONFIRMED
ICHIGO GOING APESHIT CONFIRMED
AIZEN JOINING THE RIDE SOON
KUBO MADE BLEACH GREAT AGAIN
Why is Ishids jobbins so fucking hard, didnt Yhwach say he and Ichigo were suppossed be equal, before Ichigo got his power-up
>>141717711
>Ishida and Ichigo equal
what?
>>141717605
>the kings power
what?
But can Ywach see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?
>Renji
>Close friend
thanks for the laugh Kubo. They've maybe spoken like... 8 times?
>>141717753
They are close friends, what are you talking about?
Rukia and Renji are on the same level.
>>141717711
Well Ishida fought Hashwalth for over 12 hours if anything it makes Hash look weak he still can't finish Ishida neither with almighty nor his own ability.
>Rukia is back
picked up
>Isshin is back
double picked up
All I need now is Aizen for my Bleach dream team.
Calling this now: Yhwach will kill Isshin. Ichigo becomes batman.
>>141717659
No. I am too hype. I'm not gonna post more though, because I am a kind man.
>>141717753
Renji cried his eyes and manhood out on him. He's a beta orbiter kind of close friend, one that stays outside the room while heholds hand withRukia
>>141717711
Ywach considers them equal for being people he can't use his powers on. Their power difference is so miniscule to him that he sees them as equals.
>>141717753
they've had as much interaction with each other since rukia's rescue as ichigo and Rukia has.
A little more even, since they were together for the hot springs, piggy party, and asauchi fighting.
>>141717753
Yeah, Ichigo and Renji's friendship has always felt a little forced to me. They haven't really spent much time together.
>>141717784
He can use Almighty on Ichigo he just chose not to.
>>141717775
Toofsy didnt even break a sweat
>>141717800
oh, and as a followup, there's a very, very high chance byakuya just used the word nakama.
>>141717682
Because Ichigo dwarves even Aizen. Whatever it is Aizen and Yhwach want, their methods coincide. As this anon said >>141717698 Aizen is definitely coming into play again soon. We still have 2 more war potentials, this is far from over.
>>141717839
Why do people call Jugram "Toofsy"?
Jugram is a legit cool character
>>141717858
The spoilers used Nakama. Guess we'll have to wait for raws.
>>141717860
Back when we didn't know his name, some anon got a captcha for "Lord Toofsy" and it stuck.
I miss those captchas. I miss those times. Where have they gone?
>>141717859
Urahara and Ichibei were revealed to be the last two war potentials by Askin
>>141717894
>tfw all you have left is store fronts and street numbers
>>141717783
That's interesting, if Isshin were to die what would happen to Ichigo, Yuzu, and Karin? My gut reaction was that it would force Ichigo to stay in Karakura to care for them, but they've pretty much taken care of themselves since Masaki died.
>>141717922
Philipino moot sucks.
>>141717894
>>141717922
Can't you enable the old captchas if you really miss them?

Renji is Ichigo's bro. he's not quite Chad Tier, but he's close.
>>141717484
come on anon, don't be that dense.
>>141715179
>These two are Ichigo's close friends
Wait seriously? So what happened to those so called human friends he used to have?
>>141718073
Uryuu's getting his ass whooped. Chad's fighting statues. Orihime is already with him. Keigo and Tatsuki are literally who tier.
I love it when Byakuya bullies Renji
>>141718116
>Orihime is already with him
He said human friends, anon.
>>141718128
Was he grabbing him by the face? It's hard to tell.
>>141718073
they are not shinigami and cannot help in this situation, even if Mizuiro attacked aizen with a molotov.
>>141718128
Renji deserves all the pain that he gets.
>that faint blush for being carried by Byakuya
She has more feelings for her brother than Renji.
RenRukifags btfo
momo a shit
>>141718073
>human friends
if they aren't in soul society, they're not really his friends.
The three possible arguments have free passes to see him too.
>the three decide to cash in those tickets now, and show up during the final fight
I'm still betting that Ichigo will get the mantle of the soul king and it'll make him go megalomaniacal like Ywach and his nakama will have to fight him, leading to Aizen's involvement.
>>141718073
But they got tickets to see him as Soul King for free! A peasant can't ask for a higher privilege than that.
>>141717618
>>141717591
EVERY PANEL KUROSAKI
>>141718160
Rukia being a total brocon is not some new revelation.
>>141718128
no, the waist
he just wasn't paying attention to how large renji is
Renji's pretty huge.
He's 6'2"
Byakuya is tall, but still 3 inches shorter than that.
and Renji's pretty buff.
>>141718160
that's not a blush, its dirt scrapes.
See
>>141715589
>>141716160
>>141718160
Canon like this
>Renji and Rukia are close friends of Ichigo
>Rukia
>Close friend
Friendzoned. That's not to say himefags will get what they want. This isn't the type of manga that will end with pairings.
>>141718177
By the end of this fight she'll call him Ichigo. Or be dead. Kubo has learned from his mistakes in Hueco Mundo.
>>141718261
Why don't we start with communicating by any other way besides just calling his name again and again.
Come on girl, use your words. You can do it.
>>141718250
The translation is probably "nakama" to be fair.
>>141717912
War potentials still standing, I mean. Kenpachi, Urahara and Ichibe are all out for the count. Hell Ichibe might even side with Yhwach.
>>141718250
>no pairings
Byakuya and Hitsugaya are getting further and further from the closet each chapter
>>141718225
It's not there on the first panel, and the lines are uniform without a single crossing line like in the dirt scrapes.
It's up to interpretation.
>>141718250
>taking the words of some captain who hasn't even spoken to Rukia literally
>>141717858
What's the significance here? Is he so devoid of emotion he's never even used the word "friend?"
>>141718369
>damage control
Face it, delusional tumblrfags, if you weren't level 1 readers you'd know that this isn't the type of manga to do pairings at the end like naruto did. But no, you want to make these threads reach shingeki no kyojin levels of cancer.
>>141718457
>Pretending you know what Kubo will do even five chapters from now let alone when this series finally ends
>>141718349
>being fujo trash
>>141715179
Was Byakuya talking about Ichigo or Gerald, saying it's on Yhwach's level.
>>141718369
Anon, please
>>141718229
why did a zanpakuto had her own zanpakuto and her own shikai?
>>141718457
Just because I'm a romantic person doesn't make me a dumblr. I've been here since 2008, and never gone elsewhere.
Do I have to tripfag to avoid these baseless accusations?
>>141718345
I can see that. Now that the Soul King is a part of Yhwach, could the Royal Guard be converted onto his side since the power of the Soul King is in their bones? It would explain why their fights were so short.
>>141717806
It's wrong though. He was using his future vision and their confrontation looked out of wack.
I see kubo is still using his template all right
>>141718484
Ichigo will bankai and win. Some people who are fighting are conveniently forgotten and may not even appear in the epilogue. Series end.
>>141716160
God why is she so perfect
>>141718569
This isn't romance. You are obviously tumblr-tier delusional and autistic to see romance in this.
Why don't you tripfag so I can filter you? The less snkcancer in bleach threads, the better.
Well I'm glad there seem to be implications that we'll get an actual explanation of who the Ishida family really is and what makes them so damn special. I like the idea that Souken did something to piss of Yhwach, got exiled, but then grabbed a bunch of Yhwach's shit when he left just out of pettiness.
>>141718627
Kubo doesn't forget fights though. He at least always finishes them off-screen.
>>141718329
I have faith in Kubo. I really, really do.
>>141718701
It isn't a romance, but the romantic aspects of Bleach are evident. While there is a pretty decent change of there being a no pairing end, Orihime will have her feelings resolved, one way or another.
I just want to point out to everyone talking about ichigo charging in head first.
He's barely using any power.
I doubt he's taking any damage either.
Idk why Kubo always does this shit but you guys should know by now that next chapter we will get a zoomed in smile. Ichigo will be unscathed, say some shit, and power up.
Kubo loves to switch to an uninformed third observer for shitty cliff hangers and 'twists.'
I don't think Kubo is going for the sappy route this time. Otherwise it'll be Aizen 2.0 where daddy tells him to stop being a bitch. This time we'll see father and son fight together.
>>141718546
Just let me have my fun, dammit. I want to see Rukia blushing, even if it's for Byakuya.
>>141718701
>snkcancer
This ship is years older than SnK, you fucking newfag.
And if you don't see the subtle romance bits of Bleach you're a legit autist.
>>141718681
It's a mystery.
>>141718781
Anon, Yhwach himself commented on Ichigo and his recklessness.
He shouldn't always do this type of stuff. He's going to get himself killed.
>>141718825
It literally doesn't matter.
Next chapter ichigo wasn't really reckless and Bach was just playing along.
It happens every fucking time.
>>141717859
We don't know if Ichigo can become any stronger than his dengai version and current ichigo is nothing to current aizen. He doesn't dwarf Aizen since Aizen lost only because he wanted to and didn't even use bankai on Ichigo.
>>141718578
No he wan't.
>>141718798
>drops the newfag card when called out on his deluded autism
I won't have that from someone so autistic he ruins multiple bleach threads like snk time and time again. The only romance displayed was with Orihime when she got kidnapped.
Shipperfags are truly the cancer killing these already shit threads.
"Orihime you're on d!"
"Ok!"
Blocks the first attack, lets Ichigo get Rekt the rest of the time.
Orihime isn't useless r..right guys? Guys?
>>141718901
That's shit writing then. Why waste panels on that?
>>141718973
>lets Ichigo get Rekt the rest of the time
It isn't Orihime, it's Ichigo that's being a fucking retard by rushing in. Orihime tried to stop him in this chapter, but Ichigo just ran right past her. It's hard to defend someone that isn't willing to cooperate.
>>141718940
Trying to kiss rape someone isn't romance anon
>>141718250
You can't possibly be that retarded anon. I mean really?
Taking the words of hitsugay with him saying she's a "close friend" and getting "Friendzoned" outta that.
If that's the case all of Ichigo's friends in his group are "close friends" Which also means Orihime is friendzoned as well then right? Fuck off, stop grasping at straws and just enjoy the chapter.
>>141715179
About time Ryuken and Isshin showed up.
It seems we'll also get some backstory on Soken Ishida.
>>141719017
>he posted it again
What the hell is SoiFon doing in all this?
>>141715179
>Wristwatch calls Orihime useless
>Rukia is coming
Is it still too early to say Orihimefags eternally BTFO?
>>141719017
Even that was shit; the point is that is the only example of romance, and look how trash tier it is?
But no, you faggots continue to delude yourselves. All shipperfags should die an excruciating death.
