Naruto and Bleach II: I don't have the heart to care anymore.

pyromonki

Maybe we'll get to see the fights that got resolved off screen.

thanks for reminding me. >_>

Kishi: "What? You want to see Kakashi use all of those techniques he's famous for? Nah. Here's the three assistants from the cloud village who are completely generic."

MasterKingJC

That was one of the most boring plot summaries I've ever read.
But, even then, it will probably be more interesting than this current war arc.

@pyromonki:

One thing I noticed about the show though, is Yamamoto is usually stalking lee once per segment. I mean GLARING at him. It's pretty creepy.

For quite a while I thought you meant Captain-Commander (Old Man) Yamamoto. The thought had me in tears.

Why does this fit so much?

I wish someone screencap'd all the Yamamoto stares… and then replaced them with Captain Yamamoto from Bleach.

I don't read either series.

I just read the thread about them.

uuh question?\

so you dont read the series, but you read what happends in the story on a weekly basis, you dont have not even the slightest urge to even flip through a chapter? i think most of us still read these series outta habit and/or curiosity. the fact the manage to ignore something thats right in your face is pretty strong willed to me. it would be like going to see a movie and sitting backwards. or being at a concert but playing your top 40 on your ipod. i want to apply that in other scenarios.

Nope.

Both series stopped entertaining me years ago, but the threads still do. I keep up with the thin plots just fine and get more entertainment value out of seeing people's reactions and the resultant memes. Once every couple months there's a huge reaction to a given chapter and I'll check it out from morbid curiosity… but I've probably only read maybe 4 or 5 chapters of Naruto since the Pain arc, and haven't read any of Bleach since Aizen.

ok. i respect that. oh and while im here i just thought i say, my friend told me about how you make a comic i think its called ninja high school and i saw it at a library. as a comic maker my self, i have skill but i still have longs way to go, (mostly in understanding what makes a good plot) and to be on topic, if i dont do more than read the wsj i wont ever make progress. but ill let you know robby that i like what you do and i might even become of fan of you, given if i actually see your work. i guess im maturing as well because i see you more now than some forum bully. but im done now….BACK TO THE MAYHEM

Now that is poor urinal etiquette.

@Gliblord:

I found it stranger that it didn't bother Neji, or that they had that scene in a show for children.

Of course, they saved it by making it about Boxers…. but wow.

Indeed. There are so many things that could go awry in that scenario.

even reading people's reactions to Post-Aizen Bleach is too much for me. I'm just trying to forget everything and move on with my life v_v

To me reading Bleach n Naruto has become some sort of habit while waiting for OP to pop up. And to be honest, I think I'm actually gonna miss 'em when they're finally over

! Pretty funny. I just love Drunken Fist Lee. It's always a pleasure

black-leg jex

what happened to choji's face on the last page?

Megadoomer

I think it was because he used that butterfly transformation (on the same page, it looks like Lee's using the gates and Naruto's in sage mode)

Someone should photoshop the troll face on the chibi Orochimarus

RPGJay

Hey I'm feeling sporatic again and feel like making a blog post about Bleach's art. I figured I should start out by addressing the rampant amount of filler that exists. Anyone have any favorite pages/panels that you want me to throw in when I'm writing this later this evening? (Other than THE HEART obviously)

Cyan D. Funk

I remember there was some really bad art we picked at during the spectacle known as the Fullbring arc, I'll see if I can work up the effort to find some.

Daz

The one where Ichigo and Ginjo were fusing inkblots comes to mind.

And I will always love Tsukishima and hiv dissapearing ledge.

To this day my favorite part of that image is the all-seeing PSPs.

RPGJay

Perhaps I should've been more specific. I meant anyone have any favorite filler panels/pages they want me to throw in?

Although I'm saving that Ginjou/Ichigo merge image for a later post when I address how Kubo can't draw an action scene to save his life. Good find, I forgot all about that one.

Daz

The one where Ichigo lands on a roof as a swirling blob of black with a white dot indicating his head was pretty good too

BigLuffy559

You should address how big of a waste it is to let Kubo do color pages. It irks me to no end how the only colors in some of his color pages are Renji's red hair and the character's skin color. Everything else is black and white Shinigami garb. Pointless.

I guess they choose bleach whenever they almost run out of colour ink.

Are we sure that panel's eminent terribleness isn't just a scan cleaning error or something

@Gliblord:

I don't think thats a scan cleaning error, its nothing new as well. I observed recently, that when Kubo does not use entire panels to show just the face, the art is quite sloppy. This is one of the reasons that Kubo annoys me, he is very lazy and does't really put the effort in detail.

What arc did that occur? I know what you're talking about and I could find the chapter number if I knew around what timespan it occurred.

Why Aizen is bad?

Because the author chose to make him bad.

@RPGJay:

Fullbring arc, when Tsukishima invaded Xcutions hideout for no real reason. "The Dark beat 2" I think.

Oh but you're thinking about Waste, right… well, theres the full 2 pages spreads of transformations, like Ginjos and Ichigos Bankais, where one page is the character and the other is just swirling dust. He repeated the drawing of Tsukishimas drawing twice. There was the Blank Sunset...I'll have to think about a few more.
