Naruto and Bleach IV- Sexy time

Fuck it, that color spread is like oda-level. I am impressed :O.
This post is pure wrong. Forget that you think Naruto is somehow interesting, that colour spread is not Oda level. Oda uses way more shades of different colours, and has much more detail. Just look at any recent colour spread.

THE GRAND RUNDOWN OF ICHIGOS REPETOIRE OF MOVES
I know nothing about Bleach, but isn't Naruto about the same? He pretty much rely on Kage Bunshins and Rasegans.
-
And luffy on punches and kicks, Naruto doesn't get as much shit as Ichigo in his repertoire for the early clever use of the Bushins in actual taijutsu.
Of course that was over 500 chapters ago, but it still sticks somewhat.

lol didn't you post this last week?

space rabbits and madara dieing!!! <3 good riddance

Which is still more creative than Ichigo's: energy slashes.
@benjamminbrown:lol didn't you post this last week?
Lol and yet it's still relevant.

that video is much better at demonstrating how we all must feel at this point.
fucking the last boss of the manga is just trick he made up within the last 10 chapters. Also there's a strong possibility madara will have a redemption moment coming up where he gets talkruoted into helping out. Kishi is literally throwing his worst ideas out there at this point.
Bleach is just no ideas. But i did laugh, those girls had some nice banter.

THE GRAND RUNDOWN OF ICHIGOS REPETOIRE OF MOVES
-Getsuga Tenshou! A horribly generic flying slash that in any other shonen series would be a fragment of a swordfighters arsenal, but here is the underwhelming crux of Ichigos unique swords unique abilities. So unique in fact that his dad has it too, and Byakuya referred to it as, wouldn't you know it, a standard technique. Sometimes works as a slash, sometimes just an ill defined smear of energy
-Black inkspill Getsuga Tenshou! Same as above, but done while in Bankai, so makes it different!
-Keeping the energy from his Getsuga inside his sword, adding oomph to his generic swordslashes! Such a crucial technique that it was never named, and has been used all of once!- Cero! A DBZ energy beam, which the GT sometimes is, but not always, also this is shot from other fingers and stuff so totally different. Was only used when Ichigo was in berserker hollow mode (and that…other, somehow different berserker hollow mode during the Vizard training), and for all we now he can't do it anymore.
- FINAL Getsuga Tenshou! For all its dramaticness, this boiled down to using up a whole lot of energy for a really REALLY big Getsuga Tenshou! Only this time there didn't even seem to be any slashing involved, just one colossal fart of black energy all over the place. Only useable once...maybe? Sorta? I guess not after all?
- SWASTIKA BOOMERANG! Pretty much a Getsuga Tenshou again, but shot from his badge in the shape of a SWASTIKA BOOMERANG
- Super Sentai Fullbullshit Getsuga Tenshou! Its white this time!
- Two Getsuga Tenshous AT THE SAME TIME!
Subtracting all the lesser variants and lost moves of Ichigo, that totals at two moves. A flying energy slash…and two flying slashes at once. If we're lucky we might even get to see a Getsuga Tenshou barrage before the series ends! Had Kubo written One Piece, we'd only have gotten around to Gum Gum gatling in the new world
Fuck, has GT ever actually been effective? Most times people just emerge from Ichigos inkspill energy splooges a little charred. The diagonal torso slash, thats where the danger is at.
Or let's compare Ichigo's swordplay skills with Zoro's, since apples with apples and all that jazz.
Flying slashes, vertical slices, horizontal cuts, quake slashes, propeller secret slash (sanzen sekai), sheathe and draw (iai).
Also comes with delicious puns.
-
I remember when Ichigo had Zangetsu and was half-Hollow
Good times
Now he has two blades with no personality whatsoever, what an upgrade
#StillbitteraboutZangetsu
-
I remember when Ichigo had the emotional range of a human being.
Now all he has is Apathy, Mild Investment, and Total Insanity
Which is similar to Kubos writing approach, I believe.
-
I think all of the characters are somehow representing a part of kubos own self. That is the reason all of them suck.

Also, ashura, and black rope. Those are pretty sweet moves, too.

I remember all the great scenes with Zangetsu, now Ichigo is a rudderless plot remora who'd dispense with Zangetsu without hesitation
Zangetsu: Don't run, Ichigo. There is one enemy, and you are one. What is there to fear? To run is to age!
Ichigo: runs like a ninny before Tsukishima THEN IT'S A ONE WAY TICKET TO THE GOLDEN YEARS FOR ME!!Zangetsu: What the fuck, Ichigo, is this how you get after a little away time? I might as well just fucking die again.
Ichigo: You know you bear an uncanny resemblance to Quincy Hitler
Zangetsu: How many times do you need to regain me before you learn to be proactive, man?
Ichigo: Flying in the face of the evil masterminds who puppeteered my birth by displaying agency? But that requires a goal in life!
Zangetsu: You know what? You're right. I'm Bach.
Ichigo: I KNEW IT
Zangetsu: If making every burden on your soul the fault of the bad people you're pressured to kill for everyone makes you happy, go ahead and get rid of me
Ichigo: Can you please split yourself in two on your way out, k thaaaanks

You know, I can't help but have the impression that you people aren't reading Bleach with 'Number One' playing on constant loop in the background. No wonder you don't appreciate it anymore, you're doing it completely wrong!
-
I read Bleach with this as background music:
-
But Bleach doesn't have a background.
-
-
Just play some white noise in the background while reading Bleach. It fits perfectly.
-
You know, after being quite curious about the general opinion of Naruto since the release of the last chapter - amongst quite a lot Naruto-fan forums I visited, I can generally say that, at least half of the people that would approve of Kishi's shit ideas over the years were in complete disapproval. So that says quite a lot.
The other approximate half are still trying to create theories for the bullshit retcons and plot holes Kishi has created, especially as of late.
-
Incidentally, I think this music is rather appropriate for the recent events in Naruto.
"Surprise! It was me, the Moon Rabbit Goddess all along!"
-
JerryEditor who approved the series: So, what's the manga about?
GeorgeKishi/Kubo: It's about nothing.
Editor: No story?
Kishi/Kubo: No, forget the story.
Editor: You gotta have a story!
Kishi/Kubo: Who says you gotta have a story?And thus, Naruto and Bleach were born…

Bleach = No Story
Naruto = No Character Development (excluding Naruto/Sasuke) -

And that's assuming "circular development" counts as a valid type of development.

This post is deleted!

Not the worst thing that I've heard. I've had people claim that Hiro Mashima is a clearly more skilled artist than Oda in every aspect while being dead serous.
I wanted to ask "who?" but then I Googled gim and I saw Fairy Tail and it just had the same effect FT has on me every time - I fell asleep.
-
A good colorspread is a good colorspread. And Naruto had a good one this week.
-
Does anybody still think that naruto will end in 2014. I highly doubt it. Especially since I can see kishimoto drag out the conflict between sasuke and naruto after the war in some form.
-
I never thought it could end this year: there is still too much stuff that Kishimoto can use, to drag his manga for another pair of years, if he really wants…

You forgot Zoro's multiple limbs and swords illusion (Ashura), tornado slash (Tatsu Maki), guillotine (Gazami Dori), multi-hit charge (Ushi Bari), combustion slash (Hiryu)…

The most important difference is that Ichigo's attacks can't be ordered in a restaurant

I found this gem in tumblr and I thought it would totally make sense for me to share it here. Enjoy.
! What they said: Sakura is useless.
What I heard: Despite her growing up with talentless civilian parents and being ignored by her gennin sensei, I will hold Sakura to the standards set by the son of the Fourth Hokage who has a limitless chakra source inside him and the heir to the Uchiha clan who wouldn't have done anything out of the ordinary if it weren't for his inherited magical eyes and a curse seal. I am incapable of judging her on her own, so I won't acknowledge how amazing it is that despite her origins she became a tremendous medical ninja, helped defeat a member of Akatsuki, and saved hundreds of lives all at the age of 15. I will constantly compare her to the two most haxed characters in the world who wouldn't have done anything special if not for circumstances of birth because I'm dumb. -

Those freakin' normal talentless civilians. They're a plague on Hidden Ninja Villages. I'm surprised Sakura even managed to escape that hellhole. Poor girl could have become a normie like the rest of us suckers.

Its all about the presentation of her character; If Kishi was going to have her be one of only 4 ninja sticking around for the final battle, and constantly go on about wanting to catch up and be of use, its really shitty writing to have her be this useless. Her being "pretty competent, relative to her background!" is absolutely irrelevant when all we readers see on paper, what Kishi chooses to draw, is Sakura failing everything.
Kishi had ample opportunity to reflect on Sakuras accomplishments a few weeks ago. Most we got was "Sakura is a kind girl!"
-
Sakuras parents are Muggles.
-
"Its not fair to diss Yamcha just because he's a walking punchline. He's really strong for an average human!"

Whom else are we supposed to compare Suig- I mean Sakura to if not the group she herself considers a part of? Let's see… someone or something as useful as Sakura... a stick and stone? Oh I'm sorry. I meant a kind stick and stone.

Don't be so harsh on Sakura-chwaan! She accomplished quite a lot over the course of this manga. She cut her hair during the Chuunin-Exam, she learned how to heal fish (and sometimes even humans) over the timeskip, she helped Sai discovering his caring and emotional side by being the usual piece of feces towards naruto until even Sai got mad at her and at last, she learned how to gain cool facial tattoos in an instant. Oh and once she confused Kakashi by punching the ground he was using to hide really hard. So there you have it; Sakura has deserved her spot in the Holy Ninja Trinity!

Fucking Obito was LITERALLY begging her to stab him in the eye and she couldn't even do that. You can't get any more useless than that very easily.

Not a fair comparison… Considering we have seen stones to crush eyes successfully.

Naruto: Where a fucking boulder is more useful than Sakura.

What makes it worse is Kishi constantly dragging in Team 7/Sakura wanting to catch up to Naruto and Sasuke again and again only to have someone else keep stopping her from doing something stupid/reckless.

Let's not forget the ultimate coup d'etat of whatever usefulness Sakura served in this manga.
She was really good at one thing. She was the healer/medical nin on the team and not only that but she was for all intents and purposes just as good, if not better, as Tsunade. If anyone needed to be healed she was the one they looked to, that's where Sakura shined. In comes Naruto with his upgrade to completely nullify her contribution to the team in one fell swoop. She's left baffled. This is impossible! She doesn't even know how he did that! He regenerated an eyeball!?
And the worst part?
NARUTO DOESN'T EVEN KNOW HOW HE DID IT EITHER!
But the damage is done.

If you spell it out like that, it becomes even worse. Damn, that eyeball regeneration crap was the peak of eye-related ridiculousness.
