Chapter 449 is out at MangaStream.

Hell yeah! Inoue kicked some ass! And she even gave a Badass Boast while doing it! She's definitely not the same weak little girl that Ulquiorra kidnapped, that's for sure.

So, Yukio is even more useful than I thought, and I already thought he was pretty useful. From the looks of the stat screens, he can change the climate conditions of one of his rooms, increase or decrease the gravity, and even speed up the time inside the game. That'll certainly make all of their training go faster, that's for sure.

Argh! Who's the Shinigami with Urahara already?!

Bleach 450 is out!

Man talk about Ginjou being an arse. I know being blind will help Ichigo reconnect with the memories of his past and bring back his fighting instinct but it's still a pretty cruel thing to do. sad.gif

Ginjou's an ass, but he has a point.

Orihime is adorable, and makes me crave donuts.

Riruka might as well be the poster girl for "Jerk with a heart of gold."

Pretty filler...though Orihime was cute and I hate Ginjou even more.

I'm wondering if Riruka feels sad about some past events or about something bad they are planning to do to Ichigo and Orihime? Hm.

Hey everyone, I was wondering... does the majority of this club like rukiaxichigo or orohimexichigo? It's been forever since I've caught up with Bleach because I stopped reading/watching after the way too long arc where they were in the desert -.-

Thus, I've also been wondering if there's been any recent evidence regarding those two couples. Also the purple haired girl xD i forgot Ithink her name was yuroichi? And then the ice-guy captain, hitsuyaga? I've always wondered if hitsuyaga has had a thing with his big boobed assistant person hahaha. lemme know guys/gals!

^Adam Couple. KPOP couple <3 google them! They're like an anime couple I swear to God. Watch their show. PM me for link :]

I think the majority of this club likes Ichigo/Rukia, but I guess I'm not sure, I'm just basing that off five or six members who've mentioned that. I'm personally of the latter camp (well actually I'm an IchiNel shipper, but I'm not too optimistic about that, shamefulcry0js.gif ), but that's only because Orihime's confession was one of the only real romantic scenes in the series. Other than being main hero/heroine ships, and the fact that Rukia and Sakura are both pretty abrasive (obviously to much different extents), NaruSaku and IchiRuki don't really seem all that similar to me. Romance plays a certain role in Naruto, while it's almost non-existent in Bleach, at least as far as main character ships go.
Either way, I doubt whatever pairing Kubo picks, if any, is going to be shown until the end, so I'm sort of ambivalent towards shipping in that series. IchiHarem anyone? wink.gif

O.O I forgot about Nel! She's sho cyute! But I heard after their arc was done they were seperated? If not then I'm for them haha XD
And can someone clear this thought in my head up? Why do I see so many Ulqorria x Orohime pics and stuff -.- did they have a thing?!?!? Disgusting... it reminds me of leonard and kaname in full metal panic, I hate people like leonard and ulquorria, freakin creepers -.- Well from what I remember of Bleach, it wasn't very romantic at all -.- But I always thought that Ichigo Rukia were really really cute. And I was a freak for them and NaruSaku, good times xD Since I don't care as much towards the anime, I guess orohime is fine, but I'd brather have nel.. haha better yet yuorochi and ichigo xDD smex

Some say their dynamics are similar to Hinata and Naruto, but LOL I don't believe so... Orohime is WAY more active in her love for Ichigo and the actions really show. Although I love Rukia x Ichigo, I believe Orohime is good for him too and their development with eacother is good.

Eh, eff logic, Nel x Ichigo ftw ahhaha (jk)

Rukia and Ichigo just seem... weird to me to think of, I dunno.

Chapter 451 is out, for those who don't know.

Okay, there's training from hell and being a harsh mentor...

And then there's just plain being a kitten. Ginjou, you suck.

Ichigo's Fullbring looks to be a combination of his Shinigami and Vizard powers, with the intertwined black and white color scheme. So his powers are EXACTLY the same as they were before. At least this boring ass training arc will be over soon.


I'm an Ichigo/Orihime shipper, by the way, with a back up preference for Ichigo/Yoruichi.

Oh Ginjou, that guy must be on the top 10 for the biggest jerk on the series. Why do I got the feeling that in the end he is just going to use Ichigo for his personal gains?


I'm personally on the Ichigo/Orihime side, but unlike Naruto, pairings on Bleach can be quite ambiguous, you can't really tell who Kudo will put together with Ichigo.

He already is using Ichigo for his own personal gain, we've known this already.

I guess NaruHina and IchiOri have some similarities, but the dynamics do seem a lot different. Orihime's interactions with Ichigo actually have substance, she doesn't just pass out whenever she sees him. When Hinata saw Sakura hugging Naruto, she smiles happily for them. When Orihime sees how Rukia was able to cheer Ichigo up after the first Arrancar fight, she was clearly upset by it. And although I guess they both confess to the hero and never get a follow-up, there's a bit of a difference in their confessions. Considering how Ichigo was unconscious, I think he has a better reason for ignoring Orihime's confession, LOL. On top of that, Sakura and Orihime share some similarities too, since they're both healers, have insecurities regarding their abilities, and seem to be more 'realistic' heroines (well, ignoring their powers anyway...).

But the series really doesn't have that much romance, so it could really go in any direction. There's a lot of random pairings people ship, which is what generally what happens when there's not enough romance for most of the fans (anybody here who's played Golden Sun should know what I'm talking about wink.gif ). Pairings like UquiOri and Nel/Noitora have some substance, but I've also seen people ship Aizen/Orihime or Ichigo/Grimmjow. One of my personal favorites is Kenpachi/Orhime, LOL. IchiOri just makes the most sense to me, since they're both human and it seems like the easiest conclusion for Kubo to write if he keeps going as he is.

But yeah, screw canon. IchiNel ftw, LOL.

Well, from the very few chapters I've seen here and there, I feel IchiRuki, while being dysfunctional and all that, actually has a lot of chemistry in it. It's mostly unspoken but through their actions, it's pretty clear as day. Rukia has always been the one to understand Ichigo well and Vice versa.

Speaking of Rukia.... good gawd Kubo, where's RUKIA??? rawr.gif

Dang, so far it's been OrohimexIchigo here ! Well, I don't dislike the pairing, it's actually quite nice. But yes, romance isn't very big at all in Bleach therefore making the future pairings even more ambiguous. OrohimexUlq... oh please no one mention that to me -.- I'll also admit that there's a handful of pairings that could happen for Ichigo... It could be IchigoxYuroichi? Idk, I haven't seen their interaction in a couple of years but from what I saw Yuroichi was pretty damn flirty with him haha. IchigoxRukia, I fell for this couple almost instantly xD I love how in the beginning she always slept in his closet and the comedy they presented to us. Plus, I can feel that spark and care they have for eachother, and to me, it would be too vague for their relationship just to be called FRIENDSHIP. I think it has potential. As for IchigoxOrohime, definitely is in the running, however.. I just don't like it as much. Well Imma catch up on this manga to see what's really gonna happen. Canon aside, NELXICHIGO XD!

I noticed that Bleach is pretty unclear at times with whom is pairing up with whom, it's not like Fairy Tail or Naruto to me. Naruto has only Sakura or Hinata to choose from (unless Kishi wants to pull a weird one on us -.-) Natsu x Lucy is pretty much canon for me xD haha, but let's not get into a debate for those...

I can't really say that about Bleach yet though, because I've never read the manga... only watched the anime before. So, once I read all of the chapters I'll have canon evidence xD
