Hmm, this chapter was pretty awesome. Mashiro is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters. I hope she gets to kick more people in the face. wub.gif

... I still hate Tousen. Hisagi is cooler than he will ever be, with a cooler sword. dry.gif

I always forget that Hitsugaya and Hiyori are still kids, but I don't think I'll forget after this chapter. happy.gif

I think its kinda ironic that Hiyori is old enough to be Hitsugaya's grandmother. Shes like 120 something and he's 50. XD

This chapter was great! Barragan is going to take some work; even Hachi is at a slight loss here, and he's the most suitable opponent. I can't think of way to get Barragan out of the game, so I'll just let Kubo do the usual stunning. happy.gif

Hitsugaya and Hiyori were just hilarious! They're both characters that are older than their appearance, but Hiyori really brings out Hitsugaya's younger self. Hitsugaya apologising was priceless!

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't recall much Hachi/Soi Fon reaction before, so I'm guessing their relationship is something that has yet to be revealed. Soi Fon saying that she doesn't know him really suggests some sort of tension; I wonder what. Something to do with her family, maybe?

All in all, I'm loving the Bleach manga at the moment. wow.png

Quite an amusing chapter :'D I never would have thought of Hitsu/Hiyo but apparently Kubo loves crack XDD Funny that he apologized for getting ahead of himself there, oho.

I can't believe how arrogant Tousen is towards Hisagi...poor guy, I'm really rooting for him and Koma.

Soifon ignoring Hachi I think was because of her distrusting personality. Generally she doesn't give second chances, so if Hachi was labeled as enemy of soul society once, she wouldn't forgive so easily.

Hitsugaya is a funny guy. When his opponent actually comes back against his strongest attack he panics and wants to fight someone even more ridiculously stronger?! What kind of logic is Captain Shota using??

the only thing I can say is that Hitsugaya has an emotional stake in it with Aizen because of what he did to Momo, but that really doesnt justify why he thinks he should fight Aizen, the guy didn't need much to beat him last time, and who knows how strong he really is. hm.png

There are only two people I can think of that may be able to counter him. The first would be the 4th Squad Captain (I'm pretty sure that's the healing group). Either that or maybe Orihime (who is not there). Maybe the healing can offset age. And with Orihime, her ability kind of resets time. It puts things as they were...I don't know how to describe it. I don't know if she can fight him, but she would be best at supporting those that fight him. I guess the best thing to fight him with is something that does not age. Maybe something that attacks using just spirit particles. I dunno. Just got me thinking.

Man i like the steam that has been picking up in the latest chapters.

I can already see a HiyoriXHitsugaya fandom coming. XD laugh.gif !

Mashiro is starting to become one of my favorite Bleach female characters. If the IchigoXTia Haribel/Yoruichi or Rangiku pairing doesn't make it i would accept Mashiro. biggrin.gif

(By the way cloud i like your Tia Haribel/Halibel avatar and sig. cool.gif, favorite bleach female drooling.gif that had to be on the wrong side. shamefulcry0js.gif, Maybe Ichigo will be like Naruto and start using Peace talks to put a end to the cycle of hatred. biggrin.gif )

Can't wait to see the calendar!

I'm still kinda wondering if that is even Aizen right there. The fact that Tousen was so eager to protect him makes me wonder if he is an illusion... I mean, everyone is at fake karakura right now...what if the real Aizen was sneaking into Soul Society where the real karakura was? No one is there to stop him!

Yeah i was thinking too that Aizen made an illusion of himself. Maybe this time he is after that blade that contained over thousand's of souls that was at the execution grounds or some other powerful item/more research data to collect.



Kyouka Suigetsu


I can't wait to find out what Aizen's bankai is like/looks and his incarnation as well. Really curious to know who's incarnation Muramasa belongs to and hopfully Tite will give Kenpachi a Zanpakutou name/incarnation/shi-kai/bankai as well.

Spoilers for the new volume poem:

心在るが故に妬み I envy because of the heart
心在るが故に喰らい I glutton because of the heart
心在るが故に奪い I covet because of the heart
心在るが故に傲り I am prideful because of the heart
心在るが故に惰り(あなどり) I sloth because of the heart
心在るが故に怒り I rage because of the heart
心在るが故に Because of the heart
お前のすべてを欲する I lust for everything about you

Let's just say, as a huge UlquiHime fan, I'm in freak out mode XDD This volume is coming out Aug. 4th (oh Kubo, really getting those 4's in there). Can't wait to see the chapter doodles!

Seems that Ishida saved Lolly XD Kubo's authors notes talk about his visit to the museum where he saw a T. rex. He goes on to say if he wasn't a mangaka, he wishes he could be a T. rex or a hercules beetle laugh.gif

Haha I'm always surprised at the way Kubo can make shoujish instances in his manga. It's kinda cool how he subtly writes it so that you can realize it on your own about two characters interacting without actually saying their names. I think that leaving it up for the reader to figure out the deeper meaning makes it all the more interesting. It fits perfectly with the "Speaking is not communication" idea.

Yeah, who knew Kubo could write shoujo :zaru To me tho, this poem is very clear who it is about. The pronoun choice 'omae' signified the 'you' meant ONE person and it's not a pronoun he uses for Ichigo :teehee: Kubo clearly showed who Ulquiorra was interested in. It's quite a different poem from Ulquiorra's previous one, where he spoke of the meaningless of the world, etc~

Anyways, on to spoilers. So far I feel pretty bored about this chapter, tho I'm sure the real thing will be better than the spoilers suggest. I thought Barragan had a stronger personality than he is shown so far. Didn't he keep saying he was a king or something? Then he just sort of floats there all creepily while the good guys take hours to make a plan XD Whatever happened to 'looks like Aizen wants us to get serious'?
