! So Kakashi and Guy are going to take over and beat the Jinchuuriki when Naruto and Bee couldn't? If that does turn out to be the case then Naruto's power levels are all sorts of fucked up.
! Oh, and I was of course hoping it would be the Konoha 11 that showed up, but I knew there was pretty much no chance of that.
Naruto and Bleach: Let's put this thread to bed I

…so the 7 swordsmen were all thrown away sans Zabuza? I hate this whole zombie nonsense, but Kishi, once you've brought them back and given them flashy spreads and introductions, it's pretty bad form to just offscreen them later. Otherwise they were just all sorts of pointless.
-
So I'm assuming the rest of the 7 swordsmen got offscreened right? Wow, they were incredibly pointless.
-
A RAMPAGE I TELL YOU!!!

Well Kishimoto does need to keep competition with Noriaki. And since he couldn't think of a way to include a penis…..
(To be honest, I have little idea of what's going on, but by flipping through the spoilers every week and you guys' discusing it.....this seems like a pretty hilarious arc to riff on actualy.
Still in stitches how Gaara made water melt gold)
--- Update From New Post Merge ---
@The:
But you guys can't discuss the shittiness and stupidity of Ichigo vs Aizen without mentioning two little words:
"Aizens Bankai".
Hell, "Aizens shikai" will suffice.Then again Daz
I honestly think that not even Aizen's cryptoillusion powers and magical wishing ball could be any more unintentionaly hilarious then
"He can't have memory changing powers, I'd remember that." It's that little extra speck of incompetence that just makes Bleach absolutely awesome and one of a kind, in a certain sense.
Oh and do you guys think Ginjo may get another transformation ? He's only had one so far ? Of course that depends on whether Bleach is in the bottom 5 this week too (ohpleaseohpleaseohpleaseohplease).

Bleach spoilers:
! Captains are returning to SS
Ginjou VS Ichigo
Ichigo cut Ginjou with one strike.
! See you next week!! -
Wait, the captains just decided to fuck off? Um, ok.

Bleach ratings are high again. Cheap ratings ploy is no longer needed.

@Oga:

Yeah, what the fuck ?
I mean I know that there's like one guy left but still, they dont realy know that for sure.
You know Noriaki, getting rid of the only thing that dragged your ratings out of the dump just as you hit bottom 4 for the second consecutive week might not be the wisest of decitions.

http://mangastream.com/read/naruto/65982646/1 Chapter's out.
Naruto: Nothing but "Eyes & Beasts"
-
Four doublespreads and three of them are ugly child scribbles.
The last one is graphically decent. However its implication that Kakashi and Guy are somehow relevant is anything but decent.
-
The art. It's horrific.
The power levels. They're fucked up BIG TIME.
This is NARUTO! -
Eh, Naruto was decent I guess. Already mentioned the stupidity of Guy and Kakashi having to bail Naruto out, but….seriously, Naruto did nothing except get his ass beat this chapter. Where's that uber powerful hax shit he was spamming a few chapters ago?
Honestly, I wasn't paying much attention to the art, but the flow and choreography of Kishi's fight scenes continue to be confusing as all hell.
-

I said pretty much the exact same thing on the MangaStream's FB.
The art during the action scenes was quite terrible. The artistry in Kakashi and Guy's entrance was under the radar dope. I'm at least a little more excited than I have been for recent releases.
-
Kakashi and Tobi in the same scene? I like where this is going.
-
I enjoyed that the 8 tails could use more techs than just the tailed beast bomb. pretty decent chapter and of course kakashi now being present doesn't mean tobi will be obito.
-
Bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeach

Why did Ginjou turn into Grimmjow?
-
Enjoyable chapter
-
http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/67588809/14 Oh jesus what the fuck is this.
-
The action in Naruto this week was….."cluttered". I honestly couldn't tell what was going on half the time.
-
@Cyan:
Why did Ginjou turn into Grimmjow?
Grimmjow probably was the hollow that killed Ginjou's mom before birth and now has some of Grimmjow's hollow power inside him. Thus making Ginjou like Grimmjow. Or Grimmjow is his father.
-
Shut up Ginjou. Nobody cares.
-
Well, notAizen#2 lost pretty quickly, both of them did bankai and not a single "special attack" was named. Hell what was the name of notAizen's#2 sword?
-
Kubo: "Oh god, oh god, oh my, oh no, no ideas…quick! Draw vaguely powerful ovals! That'll express it!"
-
Bleach… was way too boring this week.
Ugh.
-
@Cyan:
http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/67588809/14 Oh jesus what the fuck is this.
I think that's their swords clashing with each other… Well, the right panel sure looks like one...

Try reading that mess of a Bleach chapter.
None of this makes any sense.
Inner Hollows are made from having your spirit chain broken…. Why even bring that up if Kubo planned to kill Ginjou here anyway?
I'll "agree" that Ichigo changed Byakuya and Renji, that part wasn't bad. I still don't like how we're supposed to forget everything bad that SS has done though.
I don't get exactly what Ginjou's plan was either, how... was he supposed to win exactly?
And soul society just let... Yukio go? The murdering psychopath child?
And did Kubo forget that Ginjou is using Ichigo's reiatsu? Does he not have any of his own? He should right? He should have his own technique.
I... what?
-
There is still no point to this whole arc and it's going for over a year now. And I found the reason why the captains came hilarious. I mean we all know kubo put them there to just boost the ratings that's it^^
-
! Okay Kishi. If you're really never going to let Lee do anything, you have one final opportunity right now to do something with Guy. For gods sake let us see 8 gates beyond hokage level noble sacrificce action.
! Considering all the hokages kind of suck and aren't that impressive, it shouldn't be that hard.Who am I kidding. There's no chance they don't both jobber after a couple of lame attacks.
-
Kubo you've set up a chapter that could lead incredibly well into the end of your series, I say go for it!!!

Yup, it was like Kubo was swirling a tub of ink in his mouth and sneezed, spraying shit all over the joint.
I can't wait until this amalgamation of bullshit is over.
-

I agree. I honestly can't see Bleach continuing anymore from here. The chapter had a sense of finality about it. Honestly, I think it was a decent chapter, even if so many pages were stupidly wasted with huge panels.
-
Bleach: Wow, okay, what will happen after beating Ginjo? Ending of the series? There is literally nothing being set up for a next arc, and this chapter was a very good chance, since the Shinigami are leaving. But then again, why do i bother?
Naruto: Uninteresting fight #242409352. Killerbee is the most boring character ever created. -
Ichigo, if you're going to keep insisting the battle is drawing a close, then end it. For corn's sake!
-
Last chapter Ginjou arrogantly went bankai, all confident and cocksure.
Seconds later, he alreeady doubts everything and doesn't know his name.
How do you do this, Kubo-kun?
-
Reaction to Bleach: "What the…huh? What? Oh For fucks sake. WHAT?!"
Seriously Kubo, enough with Ichigos super psychoanalysis swordstrikes! Stop trying to shove in last minute patheticly vague sympathy for the villains! Ginjo is NOT that complex a character that you can expect to pull of a "deep" monologue like this, and have anyone give a shit! Christ, it feels like we're just going through the motions of the Aizen climax again. Much time is wasted to elaborately show off the villain transforming, but the transformation does him fuckall good, a hugely unclimatic battle ensues consisting of panels that show that people are fighting, without bothering to actually show the fighting. Choreography is for pussies! Zoomed as fuck out drawings of people doing generic sword clashes is good enough! And then sprinkle some "depth" onto the villain, make loads of giant energy beams, give Ichigo a dead fish expression and have him be aggravatingly smug despite just having been mentally broken and outclassed, and and there ya go! The perfect Bleach arc climax!
And much like Aizen, Ginjos powers make no fucking sense. How the flying fraggle does having weird ass random hollow powers that allow you to make a sword out of a necklace give you bankai? It is not a fucking zanpakuto! Ginjo being a Sub shinigami didn't mean literal shinigami, it meant he could use his super powers to accomplish the same tasks as them! And we never get to see what the bankai actually DOES, and for some reason it gives him hollow eyes and fur legs. Naturally, because bankais work like that for the vizards and Ichigo too!
And quoting myself from several months back: HAVING YOUR MOTHER SMELL A HOLLOWS BODY ODOR DOES NOT INNER HOLLOWS MAKEI'm not even going to touch all the SS bullshit yet, I need time to process that, but all the talk about Ichigos "choice" annoys me to no fucking end. What the hell choice are you talking about?! Ichigo haven't chosen anything! This whole shitfest started because he wanted to protect his friends from the curiously absent soul society! And the only reason he got his powers back was because YOU shoved a sword up his ass after he went insane with murderous rage! Without asking him! Some fucking "Choice" that is!
Or is the "choice" that Ichigo chose not to be pissed at Soul Society was bullshitting him? This whole arc was nothing more than a test to see how Ichigo would respond to a cruel shinigami joke?This fucking arc. To think that we thought Kubo could never get any lower than the Deicides, yet now he's drilled himself clean through the earth and this turd is headed for outer space.
-
Isn't this the 5th chapter where Ichigo tries to end a fight with one strike but fails miserably?
-
Did this chapter seriously use the words "unchanging resolve" in an attempt to describe Ichigo?
-
I like how Ichigo is the man that finally thawed SS hearts, after a million years
Yet theres still a bigass wall between Seiretei an the filthy plebes.
-
But now there's love behind the wall.
-
It's a wall made of concentrated love.

The only saving grace of this week's Naruto chapter was Kakash and Guy at the end.

Shame they're just going to jobber to Tobi.

Ichigo was never a good character. Okay, let me rephrase that - he was a character that started out well but then stayed at one point (sad but strong hero) for too long and never had any character development. If someone does not agree - okay, please, show me at least ONE drawing of Ichigo laughing. Did he ever? No, not even once in a few hundred chapters. This is bad, he doesn't show most of human emotions that make someone believable. Ichigo from the start was just a robot, Chi from Chobits had probably more emotions shown than Ichigo.
As for the chapter - it felt REALLY hard to me like this was the end. Maybe a little arc about Rukia and Ichigo doing shit and saying goodbye, but honestly? This manga is just a dead rotting corpse. It died at the moment of Aizen's… thingies. I don't even remember half of the shit Kubo tried to put inside our heads to somehow make us buy more volumes. This is a dead series, it had it's ups and downs, but now Kubo should just find someone to write the plot for him. He's really talented in art, but plot and backgrounds? That's something he needs assistants for. And a creative writer.
Naruto this week? Two beasts fighting felt like Pokemon. Look at them, look at the white one, he looks like something waiting for a Pokeball!
-
@RobbyBevard:
Shame they're just going to jobber to Tobi.
Part of me wishes that won't end up being true, but…..another part of me knows it's going to happen.
-
It may be do to the translation, but I didn't understand a thing Ginjou was talking about.
-
Naruto was decent. I don't really like that all of the tailed beast hosts simultaneously transformed into black blobs, but at least Naruto actually has to struggle (rather than this Narujesus crap), and Kakashi and Gai showing up was both built up to (albeit only in this chapter, and at the expense of showing what the seven swordsmen are capable of), and a good sign of things to come (if everyone else is also heading that way, then maybe, just maybe, the Konoha rookies will do something. It's a long shot, but it's the only hope that I have left). I'd probably give this a Why Neji, Why? Blues.
Bleach… was just stupid. So having your parent attacked by a Hollow suddenly makes you basically a Vizard now? Why didn't Chad, or any of the fullbring users, do anything like that at any point in the series? Plus, the shinigami leaving when they outnumber the enemy eight to one (even though they might be needed), and the return of Ichigo's magical psychoanalytical sword slashes (which continue to make absolutely no sense) cement this as an absolutely dreadful chapter.

http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/67588809/6 Realy ? Looks more like a fetus to me.
http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/67588809/7 My lord, Kubo's pacing is slow he's actualy going back in time
http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/67588809/11 I know this was pointed out already but Rukia looks so much like that medicine squad guy from the SS arc it's not even funny.
http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/67588809/13 The hell ? Am I supposed to take this literaly ? Because it opens such a big can of worms I don't even want to get into…..
