And i do wish that it happens either by the end of this year or next year .
Bleach Discussion 0: Hello Darkness my old friend

Early artstyle had personality, energy, much more interesting fights. Now all is bland and has to be cool.
Hey at least we won't go through the end milking process of bleach like we have to deal with naruto now. The sales of bleach are dropping, no anime series, no movies, nobody really cares for it that much anymore. Oh and it is constantly low in the rankings, so when the finale comes it will just end and be forgotten in a week.^^
You know, 15 place ain't that bad. He has beaten things like One Punch Man and Kingdom. And still sold over million in volumes. That's really not that bad…
-
I know it still sells a lot, but the hype behind the show is visibly nowhere near where it once was.

Compare to it's consistently ranking third like few years ago ? That's a major drop in ranking and sure it might still be selling more than lots of series but Bleach was supposed to be the third most popular title out of all the other on going series in weekly shonen jump . Now it always ranks near the bottom and doesn't get much hype in Japan in any way .

@Zar:
Its such a shame. The art from early Bleach was one of the things that got me into the series. I still adore it, actually.

What are you guys talking about? Just last week I have read somebody's comment (in another fourm) how amazing the artstyle is lately in Bleach and what a great and inspiring artist Kubo is and how little I understand his artistic genius and that he is the sole real artist of Jump currently and what not! I didn't bothered to reply despite the fact that the guy had written like over a thousand words just cause I said the art felt a bit sloppy in ch.602. <.<

Wags, Mugen, and I were talking about how interesting it would be to take select scenes involving Ichigo and erasing any other characters in the same vein as "garfield minus garfield"
Here are my fruits from a very prime chapter:

You totally captured the art of Kubo so brilliantly lol .

I don't see anything different from the original chapter.

Please, do the same thing, but with post SS Chad.
In fact, do the same thing with any Chad.

Next up: It seems like Tsukishima-san did more than just add himself to Ichigo's friends…
-
I forgot Gin died 4 years ago… I can't believe it's been 4 years since the butterfly cumshot battle...
Someone should do a comparison of the background panels over the last 14 years.
-
Poor Ulq, he was inconsistent in both design _and_ personality. That's quite the achievement.
-
new Bleach out. the fallen Elite guard alive, even stronger because of the quincy stolen powers, and Bach escapes the cage, with just the bold monk standing in his way. He's prolly gonna go down but it should be an interesting battle…
-
-waste of pages in things we already saw. check
-pages with little to no content. check
-bad guys explaining how their power works AGAIN. check
-setup for a predictable fight. check -
I also hope its not a stomp battle, its really tiresome at this point. Oetsu got 2 shotted without showing neither his Shikai or Bankai…
-
Well this bleach chapter was sure boooooouritto. Seriously, total waste of pages. And looks like the schmucks down in seiretei are still gonna prolong this.
-
So the Naruto tribute was a thing only Oda did? I thought that would've been an event for every manga on Shonen Jump.

Bleach did a tribute to the entire war with this chapter.^^
-
What i can't understand, in the chapter bach (forgive my sp) said something like "the powers were taken from the sternritters that are useless and giving to the one that have use" but was'nt the ritters at the soul kings palace useless as well?. THEY ALL GOT DEFEATED BY ONE GUY
-

Also, an explanation would be appreciated as to why some Sternritters can apparently resist that light pilar of energy suckage. Like Bazz-B, Rape GirlGuy and Cannibal Pre-Teen, but Sanders just got owned in half a second.
Willpower, I guess?
-
I think Kubo may have plagiarized a bit in this chapter.
The power 'exaxis' which lets you bend reality at your whim? Sounds a lot like the Exis/Axis powers from Tower of God where the character had the power to bend reality and slaughtered all the royal guards in the king's castle.

Maybe so, but now that he has powered these guys up, they're showing their true power and they're more than a match for the Royal Guard…..

it doesn't bend reality. He never said that.
Also, if this guy is such a good shot, why the hell didn't he go for the head shot instead of a hole through the shoulder?
-
Okikiba appeared, the chapter is saved.
-

because he has to show off his mad skillz
-
@Devil:

Thats Aizen, Okikiba died when the Division 1 explosion blew up.
-
Karakura flashbacks. Aizen/Bach's minions are fighting, looks like tons of fights…..then goes Kubo suddenly hits fast forward, knocks/kills the minions to hype up the big bad, cue curbstomps against the good side. Only this time, Bach did it a lot sooner.
I mean.....~26 fights would've been a drag, sure, but....now what? The Shinigami in Seireitei all stand around while inevitably Ichigo saves the day up above?
-
Don't worry, back up is coming, I'm sure Ganju and our fullbringer pals will come, too via their own rocket, and everything will be swell until Ichigo inherits the soul king throne and then his friends can only visit him with soul tickets
-
In before Ganju was a cool guy.
-
^More like in before Ganju turns heel again.
-
Well Ganju was the guy with the pig
Now, Ginjou. HE was the coolest guy.
-
And what about Tsukishima-san?
-
Tsukishima is my lifelong cousin and everyone knows that he is also the coolest guy
-
It's so weird to see all the quincy be surprised that Bach betrayed them and is willing to sacrifice them. At no point has he ever attempted to hide the fact that he is a back stabbing asshole. Every single one of the quincy we've seen have been ready to back stab each other, and he's been killing his own teammates for
yearsdecades and encouraging them to do the same. -
So Auswahlen whatnot is just re-distribution of abilities (as in, letters?) but not reiatsu/reishi so it can pass through tree cage with no problem. Yeah, sounds like bullshit alright. It doesn't explain at all as to why the Elites are now resurrected!
Wait, who's Okikiba again?
-

How else was he supposed to explain his ability?

Is there any difference? In Kubo´s world it doesn´t really matter.
-
This post is deleted!
-
Bleach dropped from any notions of a "Big 3" years ago, and Fairy Tail isn't even from WSJ so it doesn't matter.
-
Now that there is no big 3 anymore, will Bleach be dropped from the equation completely? I mean there's no 3 and bleach is certainly not the most popular shounen anymore right? Which one does better; Bleach or fairy tail?
Well, it´s different magazines, but Bleach is constantly in the botton 3 in Shonen´s rankings, so yeah…
-
picks a megaphone
The Soul King is making a party at his palace and everyone is invited!! -
So now now that Bach's pretty much the last one left, Bleach can't be that far from conclusion, can it? I mean the fight with Aizen only took… around......... 50...... chapters............ oh.
Looks like we got at least another year of Bleach folks! Huzzah!!!

?
Dude, they are alive again.
Yahoo, Hashensomething, Ishida and the fantastic four.
Maybe also Giselle and that other girl, and how knows, maybe BuzzB will indeed survive, which will raise our hopes once again for Nananana so he can be useless again.Make it two years

There really isn't any structure to a "big 3" in the west, or anywhere really, and there hasn't been one for years.
-
Another pretty typical chapter of Bleach.
C'mon Kubo. Now that Naruto's over, you gotta pick up the slack and be twice as dumb.
-
Ehhh I always interpreted the big 3 as the Big shounen series that were popular in the west (and Japan) for some time and are generally "well known". So yeah…OP, Bleach, and Naruto it is. I mean, I don't hear a lot of folks buzzing about Toriko, Ass Class, or the blossoming Hero Academy.

Even then, Bleach kinda fell off the charts once we reached fullbringer territory. Real fast. Only people who hold onto bleach are the ones at the Asylum.
There's no big sense of a Big 3 anymore, really, even if Naruto were still going. Heck ForneverWorld even sounded real concerned and made a stupid video about that.

First division third seat.
But imo that really isnt the real Okikiba, because she was in the first division building that blew up. That is probably Aizen in disguise.

Naaah it isn't about quality really but simply sheer name recognition. Most people seem to know at least one of the three when it comes to referring to japanese comics. So I suppose "popular" isn't the most accurate word, but generally the most well known "recent" shounen titles that are still running around the same time. And if that one recent Simpsons episode is anything to go by (in terms of western attitudes), it still seems to be the case that most westerners recognize Bleach as a fairly well known serie (as well as Naruto and One Piece).

name recognition, sure, but even then the current environment kinda makes it real difficult to develop another "big 3" then in the same fashion. Like I mean, you could probably throw Fullmetal Alchemist or Attack on Titan, shucks, let's go with Fairy Tail, in there, and it'd make a big 5 or 6 if that were the main criteria.
Like with the "Big 3", they were big titles in WSJ that dominated the western presence and also held respectable positions consistently in the rankings in Japan, but now? Using it just on presence and exposure is more arbitrary than anything else. At least to me, the connotations of a "Big 3" are pretty outdated at this point,
