Don't you get tired of only seeing huge boobs? If all the boobs were big, none would be small. They'd all be the same.

That's like saying "Don't you get tired of heavenly bliss."
And don't worry your pretty little head, I have other things to look towards for the sake of diversion :P

@No:
That's like saying "Don't you get tired of heavenly bliss."
And therein lies the great philosophical question of, "Would mankind eventually grow tired of eternal bliss (i.e. heaven)?" After all, is it not man's nature to explore, to change, and to suffer? For without pain, how can we know joy?
But, umm…I'm guessing you didn't intend to be taken that seriously.
Oh, and some men prefer little titties.
-
@No:
Point is hating on breast sizes is irrelevant, because they're not an indicator of relevancy.
Pfft, we all know how much Kubo prefers his big-breasted characters. Or at the very least, they're plot armor.
Think about it! Rangiku gets her abdomen removed by Ayon and yet…..out of Hinamori, Iba, Kira, and Hisagi, she's the one that gets up at the end near the Deicide chapters!
Harribel gets cut by Aizen and is defeated/dead…...until it turns out she's the only Espada to survive and get healed by Orihime!
-
Oh, and some men prefer little titties.
I'd make a joke about that but I fear someone could take it seriously and derail the argument into places I don't realy want to go to.

But what was Rangiku's point in that arc ? Or indeed, what was Harribel's purpose up till now ?
It doesn't matter because they're completely inconsequential to everything.

I was kinda kidding but you're pretty much spot-on. Rangiku was merely a member of the defensive Shinigami unit in Fake Karakura, got defeated, and awoke just so Kubo could explore the relationship between her and Gin in a half-hearted, back-assed way. In the end, what did it matter?
Harribel was one of the Espada, a villain, and was healed JUST so Kubo could use a target to hype up the Vandenreich (or boobs, take your pick), where said group is lead by an extremist goal and managed only to kill Yamamoto, Sasakibe, and fodder. In the end, what did it matter?
If you're not named Ichigo, Aizen, or Urahara, good luck being consequential to this manga as a whole.

Orihime has giant boobs and she's been shat all over since the Arrancar arc. Unless you're saying small-breasted characters should also be completely nerfed and derailed to the point of competing for least likeable character in this series (coughSoi Foncough). Just because they get more screentime as blatant fan-service ratings grabs doesn't mean women are treated well in Bleach, giant hooters or no. Orihime and Soi Fon have to be among the least likeable characters (not counting the Fullbring morons; I mean real characters that are in more than 1 arc) and the size of their chests are polar opposites.
What you should actually be annoyed at is all of Kubo's blatant ratings grabs bringing in Captains and/or boobs in an attempt to boost ratings despite it being very contrived. And with the Captains it's always the popular trio of Hitsugaya (inevitably toting along Rangiku), Kenpachi, and Byakuya, so basically it's bring in boobs, lady-boner bait, and that battle crazy guy people like to get ratings. Ikkaku? Chad? Ishida? Ukitake? Pfft, fans don't like those losers so Kubo leaves them with jobbing duty or sitting offscreen guarding the real King's Realm: Forgottenland.
-
To this day I keep that panel of Rukia being flabbergastered that the captains can't DESTROY A DIMENSION even if they work realy hard at it.
It doesn't have anything to do with the above debate, just wanted to bring it up again.
Also: Jackie says game won't end till one of them dies. Kills herself somehow. The game ends. Ends up somehow alive. Never explained.
Unless the little turd has a crush on her or something and the fact they spoke at the end is kinda not realy proof of that. Also that kid purposefuly bankrupted his parents out of spite because he had everything. Totaly relatable !
-
No, because if she had had normal proportions, then the fanservice wouldn't have been as blatant as it was. The only issue I had with Nel's regular form was that Kubo felt the need to toss a huge rack on her, as if he didn't already have half a dozen characters exactly like that. Also, if I recall correctly, Nel did her swallowing a cero trick when she was stuck in chibi mode, didn't she? That was pretty useful, not to mention her rather disgusting healing abilities. Basically, she transformed into a more battle-capable version of Matsumoto, whom I greatly dislike. Get it? If Nel's real form had been closer to Tatsuki or Lisa's proportions, then I would've had zero problems with it (until she reverted because Kubo felt the need to show off Kenpachi, that is)…
Ohhhh I'm really sorry. I understand you know (my brain must not have been working when I replied). I thought you meant Nel's chibi form should be a woman with smaller boobs then when she gets powerful (when she fought Noitra) she gets big boobs. I really don't understand why I didn't get you the first time (once again brain must not have been working)
Well for small boobed women in Bleach there is Soi-Fon and Rukia…they're...erm ok...I guess
-
I thought I might as wellgive my two cent on, when I thought bleach went downhill, for me it was thegruesome WW arch, boy I mean at the beginning kubo actually did kind of built upthe tension a bite with both sides preparing for the war. okay am just going toget down to the main point cause know wants to read an essay.
Death Bringers Numbers
espada four and below can't release within Las Noches,because is so powerful it world destroy it.
one of Aizen's quotes after old yama imprison him andco, gin ask what they should do. aizen replied ( This battle shall simply endwithout us having to lift a finger)
man I remember when thatchapter came out I was so pump up, the espada's were getting a bite hype, to bebadass mofo's, I know aizen was one cocky duce bag, but I kind of thinking kubo was basically telling us thatthese 3 Espada were going to cause mayhem.
Butterfly Tousen
this guy had one kool bankai,what was kubo thinking turning him into that ugly thing, damn his character wasnot handle properly.
Barragan Vs Soifon
again another arrogantcharacter but it still bemuses me why barragan didn't kill soifon, instead hiswas busy chasing omeada.
Shunsui Vs Stark
this was the main fight I waslooking forward to, cause I thought both characters were kool, why didn't weget a 1v1 fight, but ukitake, rose, and love had to get involved, I mean it waslike could shunsui have defeated him without interference, am sure stark couldhave push shunsui to go bankai in a 1v1 fight, sad we never got to see it,since stark did say he would force him to reveal it.
Iceman Vs Harribel
yes lil man had the advantagewith ice and water, the espada were rank on there killing ability and she wasnumber 3, I guess being popular carry'spower
Aizen stronger than all the Espada's combine
it was like what the f… inthe face kubo, the espada got degraded even more, it just destroyed the purposeof them being created, since aizen was a one man army why bring the espada ifthey were going to be turn into a piece of shit.
The vizards
we all thought they would bethe A Team , since SS captains got rape by aizen, they even out things, littledid we know they would be more useless. I guess being a hybrid doesn't countfor anything man the disappointment.
Aizen transforming
the dude was transforimg formfrom one to another, yet did it make any differences NOOOOOOOOOOO, kool littledesign in kubo mind that's all it accomplished. his last form with thosetentacles hallow like thing only fired cero which were useless kubo could havebeen more imaginative than just cero.
No good guys die for a suppose Winter War, hence why it wascalled the hallowcause
Gin stabbing aizen in the back
we all saw this coming, itwasn't even funny, when it happen in stead of being shock it was like yeahpretty much knew it would happen next, for me gin's reason was a bite weak, isnot like aizen brutally rape matsumoto.
am sure there are more stuffthat could have been cover, but that's all I could think of, to make mattersworse after everything was said and done, in the data books kubo confirmsespada four and below are all Vasto Lorde.
I mean if you like the espada,which I did is that meant to make me feel happy yeah there were VL, why didn'tkubo reveal it in the manga were it would have had more of an impact andrelevant towards the story at the time.
I remember in one of hisinterview saying he will reveal the vasto lord's something along those lines,yet it never happen in manga, is obvious as day the espada's were at best highlevel adjucas arrancar, but most likely due to NO time vasto lord becameirrelevant, kubo in his mind ohh I know how about I make espada 1 to 4 VL thatshould please the fans right.
remember way back at thebeginning of bleach it was said a VL fighting ability is higher than acaptains, did we see that my friends.

Who cares about fake boobs????? I must be missing something but what is even this discussion?
I just want my characters to be good characters and be used I don't really care if they have big boobs or small boobs.
-
Who cares about fake boobs?????
WOAH!!!!! hold on their! no one said anything about fake boobs, we were talking about Big Boobs
I'd much rather small boobs then fake Boobs if I had to choose, no question about that
-
WOAH!!!!! hold on their! no one said anything about fake boobs, we were talking about Big Boobs
Hmm, maybe he was referring to fictional boobs. There's a difference.

That is why people have always got frustrated with the power levels portrayed in Bleach. At the start of the Hollow arc, White-haired brat stated that more than 10 Vasto Lordes were sufficient to wreck Soul Society. Then I recall the last page of the chapter Aizen said to Ulquiorra Emo-face to meet his 20 other siblings. At first you were like, oh noez! Aizen has already created an army to wreck Soul Society's shit! We even had a taster of their power in the second invasion of Karakura Town, where the Arrancar were beating Shinigami left and right, even a captain and two other vice captains were losing!!! But of course, in display of holding back power/dropping the weighted wristbands/release of seal, had the common Arrancar all got killed in the second invasion, which led to people thinking that Arrancars are just simple hollows with some shingami powers.
BUT! Do not forget the ESPADA! The creme de la creme, the elite, the best of the best in Aizen's army and far greater than the common Arrancar foot soldiers! This led to a lot of speculation of whether the Espada were all Vasto Lordes. Then you had Number 9 Espada Fake-face from Rukia's past with 2 heads that said he's a Gillian(what?), but with the powers of 30000 other hollows!! Then he got stabbed in his jar head and died. -_-
People also constantly speculated about Ulquiorra, with his helmet looking a lot like a Vasto Lorde's silhouette, along with some other people with a theory that Aizen had the Vasto Lordes as a separate army from the Espada and they will come in during the war to wreck shit, and that the Espada weren't Vasto Lorde level. Though I would think being a hybrid with both hollow and shinigami powers would put your power levels pretty high. Grimmjow was also another weird one in the list. He was able to beat Ichigo to a pulp the first few times they met, then he had some clash with Ulquiorra emo-face, stating that they are on equal levels of power. But of course, Emo-face had two levels for his power-up forme, which made even less sense considering his number was 4, which meant he had 3 more stronger than him. And of course we had to throw in the self-proclaimed number 0 to look even more stupid. (though common shonen and battle law dictates, the bigger you are, the more useless you become in battle)All this confusion would have been avoided if Kubo had a power chart, as someone mentioned, especially with a his series that is so dependent on power-level-over-9000 in beating opponents and not strategy. Except for a few characters like Urahara and Captain Scientist Genocide, though their strategies were more like faux-Batman planning in advance, which can seem pretty silly when you consider how did they scrounge up so much intelligence at such short notice. But no, power levels fluctuate all over the place, and strong characters job out more often than not to make the main character seem reliable and a last beacon of hope.
Which is why I am not holding my breath for the Zero Squad to be very helpful in the upcoming battle. Even though their 'power levels' are said to be better than the Gotei 13 combined, expect them to lose spectacularly.
-
It kind of seemed that Starrk/Gingerbuck, Baraggan, Harribel, and Ulquiorra were all Vasto Lordes.

nice post
To add to that, the so call bleach hardcore fanboys (girls) seem to always ignore plot hole's in bleach, which there are a lot another example, remember how you have three different menos class
Gillain
Adjucas
Vasto lordeIt was said a vasto lode has a human body like, and like you pointed out me and many other's did believe that the silhouette was of ulqboy or stark, but that didn't turn out to be the case,any way to cut to the case the top 3 espada weren't the strongest it was yammy riyalgo,bear in mind a vasto lorde is meant to have a human body like form, yammy in his unrelease and release form was nothing close to a VL, he was at best a high level adjucas, yes he has the storing ability to store power up, but it still contradicts kubo's logic of how a VL is meant to be in form.
It kind of seemed that Starrk/Gingerbuck, Baraggan, Harribel, and Ulquiorra were all Vasto Lordes.
Believe me i know there have been a lot of hint's, i.e. silhouette, and what not even the top four there release form, but are you trying to tell me kubo couldn't have said and confirm it the manga, in fact the perfect time could have been, when ulqboy was basically trying to discourage ichigo to lose his will to fight in HM, and then there is the whole yammy deal.

I still find it difficult to comprehend how the man who created all this potential in Bleach, excitement raised as pointed out above is the same man who fucked it all up. I'm convinced he had a mental breakdown at some point. Writing cannot deteriorate that badly without some sort of negative force behind it can it? With Naruto we can see Kishimoto crushed under the compexities under his own series, he made things too complicated. With bleach it oozes despair. Has anyone else noticed how his "poems" seem to have deteriorated over the years?

I rather think that he did not plan ahead because he did not expect Bleach to run that long, the same goes for Kishi who even went against everything he initially had depicted in his manga because both of them (just my guess btw) could not come up with a satisfying continuation of their respective stories. One Piece had the same problem (running way longer than initially planned and expected) but Oda actually accomplished what Kubo and Kishi could not which of course is partly due to the scale and premise of One Piece.
-
Obviously the planning factors, and as I've said before it's just lazy. People plan well who aren't published, so they should have put effort in if that's what they get paid doing. As for One Piece, Oda hasn't really shown signs of lack of planning, I mean some OP fans would readily cite the Laboon thing for eg. It might not seem like much but it all adds up. Plus even if Oda doesn't have the other characters in the same place he will use the cover pages to keep us in touch with characters we might be wondering about, like Eneru on the moon or the CP9 doing their thing post Enies Lobby. My personal favourite is the cover page arc of Crocodile's mini-jail break which could be a jokey foreshadowing of the jailbreak arc lol. My point is Oda doesn't abandon his characters, regardless of whether they are popular or not.
-
The "big three" progressed through their story differently. I think Bleach hit the end but did not anticipate on going any further from it (hence the major drag once it progressed after that point). I don't think Naruto hit its end, but Kishi simply got bored of his work and it has become a real drag (and unnecessary complicated after the additions he made to the story). With One Piece, Oda seems to be adding more into the story while progressing to the end and thus making it longer.
-
As for Naruto, even though the idea of the zombie thing annoyed me (and I still blame Kabutomaru) Kishimoto could have had decent battles with already established characters for proper resolution, rather than giving them rushed battles and giving the extra time to characters we haven't had the chance to care about. I may be contradicting myself which is why I will probably be rereading the manga to check if my notions are right. I remember not being satisfied by the whole zombie thing though. Especially since I did give a shit about Kimimaro for example.

It was handled horribly, because the Rookie 9 had already been shafted. Neji never fought his dad, etcetera.
-
Yeah. The final battle before we started to get back to supah Uchiha and supah Uzumaki was Chouji. I felt with the war Kishimoto wanted to throw in every name he could just in case his big big overshadowed anything else. Which he did… Well done for predicting something Kishi then just letting it happen that way anyway lol. As for Zetsu, we all know it will come down to that statue or even Madara eating all the clones for moa powaaa or the sttue thing doing the same. In shounen mooks get devoured to make the big bad stronger, so it will probably happen like that. Statistically it's either that or a thousand Naruto clones doing it. No Kishi can't have something interesting like Neji spamming them with tetragrams. It's all down to the two halves of Rikudou sennnin now, the body of Naruto and the blood of Sasuke.
-
The zombie thing literally felt like a fan fiction - just the whole concept. One of the worst arcs in the entire series.

And on that note I am handing in my resignation to Arlong Park, it's been a fun ride but I spend too much time on here and well I don't really have the time to obsessively check posts every few minutes. It's been a run ride, but I have not the time, so I must leave his theme park of emotional roller coasters, get on with my kanji and reach my prime. I hope everyone else all finds their One Piece and I wish you all the luck and love in Za Warudo. Take care.

You're leaving your final post in the Narubleargh thread? ._____.
-
Well I set up a goodbye in the intros but essentially yeah. Partly because it's a symbol about how my manga anime shouldn't ever be about hate, but at the same time if I am not on here I don't wanna bend my logic so I actually love Naruto and Bleach again. I would still be objective though. I only rank both 9 out of 10 up to well pre-zombies and pre-deicide, but you try telling myanimelist that lol.
-
Just read manga / watch tv and refresh the forum maybe every 10-30 minutes or so. Oh, and have some music playing. I (nearly) always have some calm music playing when I browse forums~
Whoever comes up with the technology that says "BEEP BOOP there's a new post!" will be my hero. I've tried RSS feeds but I think they only do newly created threads?
But if you really are gone, drop some posts every few weeks / months if you feel like it! See ya around.

More than being lazy which i believe you can not be if you publish a weekly manga, even if you have a lot of assistants etc., i think it is more due to the fact that both did not have the ability, the creative talent, to prolong their story satisfyingly while still keeping up the quality. Both Bleach and Naruto could initially keep up with One Piece (Soul Society is one of the greatest Shounen arcs i have read, Naruto until the timeskip which i believe was not necessarily planned at the beginning) but both dropped immensely in quality at a certain point in the story.
-
I honestly don't get the appeal…
it's good comedy
they bring back the characters we love
have them do something
and there's a surprising amount of character development in each one, more so then in the actual mangaand come on, it's rock lee

Chibi rock lee still isn't rock lee.
Have you even read the manga or watched the anime version? You shouldn't write the series off simply because of the art style, because that's doing it a disservice. Honestly, this Rock Lee is better than Kishimoto's version. Actually, the Naruto world as depicted in Springtime of Youth is better than Kishimoto's version (post-time skip)…
-
Have you even read the manga or watched the anime version?
No, i just like to make wild assertions
You shouldn't write the series off simply because of the art style
Too late. Art style and quality is one of the most important features in regards to any manga series. HXH has a brilliant story, and lovable characters, yet isn't held in high regards on the manga ranking simply because of the shoddy art. Even bleach gets a lot of flack for the laziness and obscene amount of page space wasted on pointless scenery and whatnot.
Art style is one of a few defining features that makes or breaks a series.
because that's doing it a disservice.
Kishimoto deserves this flogging.
Honestly, this Rock Lee is better than Kishimoto's version. Actually, the Naruto world as depicted in Springtime of Youth is better than Kishimoto's version (post-time skip)…
So the women aren't useless, the dialogue isn't predictable and the character development is something beyond a sexy bunshin? lol
As for rock lee, who cares anymore. His relevance to the main series died out a long time ago. This series is some kind of weak attempt at making up for that. Lol even chouji bares more relevance in the current plot.
Im just surprised the intro theme and chapter covers didn't have some kind of caramelldansen embedded into it. Hehe at this point im kind of shocked it hasn't done a crossover with lucky star.
…oh god the mental image is appalling. Worthy of being the fifth horseman.
-
There's no point in convincing Smudger that Rock Lee's Spring Time Youth is better. If one detests that chibi-ish style art, then the Rock Lee manga is definitely not for them (in spite of it being written better than Naruto imo). It's just a real shame that Kishi didn't make this serie a slice of life/adventure serie rather than…whatever it is now.
-
HXH has a brilliant story, and lovable characters, yet isn't held in high regards on the manga ranking simply because of the shoddy art.
I'm pretty sure this has more to do with the fact that the core voting demographic are young children, who not only cannot appreciate many of the themes of the manga, and also because of the many hiatus' are thrown into a story they have no background on.
-
So the women aren't useless, the dialogue isn't predictable and the character development is something beyond a sexy bunshin? lol
Actually yes. It's far more developed and characters like Tenten get actual character growth. The dialogue is fairly random because it's a comedy. And Naruto isn't in it as much so we don't get too much of sexy bunshin. But if you don't like the chibi art that'll be a hurdle. A lot of us liked it because we get to see characters we wanted to see more of become developed. All that stuff the original Naruto should have had in there.
-
I'm pretty sure this has more to do with the fact that the core voting demographic are young children, who not only cannot appreciate many of the themes of the manga, and also because of the many hiatus' are thrown into a story they have no background on.
More the second reason than the first. The core voting demographic are, as far as i know not children, who, if they even take their time and spend money on reading manga, would not make the effort to send the votes. Even if they are, HxH is one of the most loved Shonen in Jump, it´s just all the hiatus ruined everything.

haha, if these spoilers are real. Oh man.. if these spoilers are fucking real.
! 上一话结尾跑出来的那个人果然是店长
That person from the end of last chapter really was Urahara.
但是店长没有到现场 好像是涅指挥魂扛着一个放映机一样的东西在视频通话 orz
However he doesn't arrive here. Seems like Mayuri directs Kon to hold up some sort of projector so they can talk.
织姬和茶渡也出现跟一护说了几句
Orihime and Chad also appear and say some stuff to Ichigo.
! 后来一护跟零番队他们要去灵王宫
Later Ichigo goes with Zero Division and the others to the spirit king’s palace.
去灵王宫居然是通过志波空鹤家的大柱子传送
Going there actually has to be through the big cannon-thing at Shiba Kukaku’s place.
! 把一护他们传送走之后, 空鹤好像交代岩鹫去做什么事
After Ichigo and them leave, Kukaku seems to tell Ganju to go do some stuff.
岩鹫一行四人走了,另外那三人的背影貌似是月岛表哥、银城和眼镜老头
Ganju and three others leave. The backs of the other three somehow look like Tsukishima, Ginjou, and the glasses old guy. (t/n: WTF?)
! 一护到达了灵王宫 本话完
Ichigo arrives at the spirit king’s palace. Chapter ends.Can you smell it? Can you smell the storm a brewin'?
I'm laughing so hard right now. Sweet jesus.

There's enough wrong with this w/o even mentioning the confusing comment about looking like Shitbringers from behind (could just be commenting on Kubo's samey char designs).

And so the most powerful Jutsu starts, Obito is already, slowly but steady, doubting himself
Surprisingly i liked everything else, especially the arrival of all those Shinobis (even if it was extremely corny) -
what am i missing here. I see a random pointless filler chapter.
People talk, Ichigo goes back to the cannon that shot him into SS to invade way back when. For some reason that is the way. Guess that elevator is only one way down.
Don't see anything worth mentioning. What is so funny? Or is there something i should be predicting. Half the names you listed I have no idea who they are without googling them. So maybe that's what I'm missing thats funny in there.

Kon and the Shiba siblings are back, it looks like Kubo spent some time rereading his old volumes.
And wasn't Tsukishima the only one of those three who actually survived?

This isn't a "plothole" because even if they did die, they were killed by Shinigami.
I hate to admit it, but it works. Also… I'm assuming that means Tsukishima DID bite die eventually to his wounds (even though.. he shouldn't have been able to breathe to live as long as he did)

I thought even Tsukishima was screwed from the hand-sized hole in his chest.
Why was there such a deal over Aizen getting that key when Shiba could blast him there is the biggest thing I see as a problem. Even above the possible return of Fullbringers as souls in the shithole part of SS.
Edit: yeah the Fullbringers I don't have issue with being in SS as a plothole. I have issue with it because they're the worst shitstains trying to pass as characters in this series. The cannon vs key thing is a big problem/potential plot hole imo. Even if Shiba family wouldn't normally have cooperated with evil Aizen, why not make up a reason during the invasion before he revealed himself as "teh evils"? Or use his lolillusions-sword to look like a Royal Guard member or someone she'd listen to (Yoruichi maybe).
