…Let's hope Kubo never sees this.
Hey, we know Kubo will have to make Ichigo even more overpowered than he is already in order to fight somebody who is pretty much omnipotent.

I it just me, or did Orihime fairy things only showed up once in the whole series?
Once you reject a reality, something else has to replace it.
I remember there was this plot point where Urahara said that the exchange of Blut Vene and Blut Arterie (Quinzis can only use one of them at a time) would be one of the keys to win this war. It was mentioned together with intel about Vollstandig.
However, before the "Auswahlen" (read : Plot Convenience) shit, not even once of those actualy worked into play again so far. Some of the defeated Quinzis in Vollstandig form was simply defeated by stronger bankai (Komamura and Rukia). Ironically, Vollstandig was actually in sealed state for those who stole bankais, and Urahara's drug made it possible for them to use it again. In the other hand, Blut Vene thing only re-emerged once again during Mustachio vs Baldie, and it was neutralized with little to no problem. You thought that Gremmy was using Blut Vene to block Kenpachi's sword? Too bad! He's imagining himself to be harder than steel! and it didn't work.
Feel free to correct me though. This time, my body is ready.

Well, at least he didn't make Sid randomly explode.

The one where Woody is an evil ventriloquist dummy?
Yeah, I guess a movie that features such a character would not end with at least one living being not blowing up to bits.
Or at least stabbed to death.

Sid Phillips…to Sid Phill-bits.
...it haunts me to this day.
Anyway yeah, so I wonder when we're gonna see Kyoraku again.
That guy surely can't take as much of a backseat as he did during the fight against Aizen.

I was actually expecting him to fight albino Byakuya, but I guess he will be left for Ichigo or Ishida when the latter eventually rebels.
Aizen could always make a surprise reappearance too.

I want to say…haschwald?
That's a name, right?

As much as Yhwach is.
Nothing will ever top the memorability of NaNaNa, though.

Is it bad that I really can't associate that name with any character I've seen?
Kubo strikes again.

Haha even i couldn't remember him until i searched him . Just shows how forgettable the villains in this arc are .

The character itself is as memorable as Yoruichi's brother, but the name is amazing on its sheer laziness and WTF-ness.
It's like if he had called Yhwach "Yahoo" instead (thanks Daz). At least you would remember the name.

Boy he really did the number on NaNaNa. He's that aboriginal looking skinny dude with a letter U (hell if I know).
Fights with Rose but it's unresolved without showing his ability.
Observes Renji while he's sleeping and says he's toast because never in his life has he observed someone for so long. A hint towards his ability! That means they're gonna fight, right?
Gets offpaneled by Byakuya along with 2 others.
Auswahlen!
But…
Auswahlen!
Right now, he's only lacking Orihime's very own reality-rejecting powers.
This sounds like power of many women :ninja:
Speaking of useless, did we ever see that huge fodder quincy army that weren´t SternRitter again?
I remember them in Hueco Mundo and in the first Invasion, but after that there were no other traces of them…
Kubo forgot, so…think of it like it never happened. xD

Yhwach killed them because they had accomplished their mission.
If Kubo can kill those guys and achieve some greater power we will very likely see all Quincy in SS that died being brought back to life even stronger so Renji or Byakuya or others dont get to have cake walk.
And yet again we will get Kuboed.
Yhwach killed them because they had accomplished their mission.
Yhwach summoned them to the Soul King Realm when they first arrived but Kirinji dealt with them rather swiftly like the fodder they were.

They are Soldats and they all look the same. I think SpaceCowboy probably meant the ones that sent direct ultimatum to SS which they sport same outfits and masks, but with varying body height and width. They're most likely Sternritters that die early since one of them stole Sasakibe's bankai and bragged about it in front of Yamamoto before getting incinerated. Luders Friegen, an arrancar with quinzi power, whom Yhwach dubbed as "prophet" was also among them.
This raises another question. Why would Yhwach recruit them arrancars if he's not going to use/waste them on the war against SS?

Because Kubo changed his mind between chapters, most likely.
I´m talking about thse fodder.
!
Looking back, they weren´t even in the first invasion.
Also why the hell is grimmjow not with the others. Has he got some special mission, is he sitting behind some buildings awaiting kubo to give him the go to pop out, or is he just simply getting it on with Halibel in Hueco mundo? Certainly better than participating in this "war".

Ah, my bad lol. I thought you were talking about these. Maybe they're converted to copy-paste army that is Soldats so they're easier to draw. the left guy looks like the one that's split in two by Bambietta, though.

Grimmjow and Halibel are securing the future of new generation arrancars :ninja:
That's gross. Halibel can do way better.

We don't know what Yhwach's endgame is yet. He's obviously kept Halibel alive for a good reason.
Is Harribel still chained up?
No seriously, I ask this. She was chained up, Kubo's way of hyping up the new threat yadda yadda….the whole scene in Hueco Mundo just sorta....fizzed out. Are Harribel's fraccion still alive? What of the Arrancar that bullied Orihime (Loly and Menoly)?
We can assume Bach's little stunt absorbed all the Quincies patrolling the area....but......the other side....?

I'm not surprised if all those events get off-screen treatment. With the Yhwach and his elites gone from Hueco Mundo, even regular arrancars fed up with Yhwach's tyranny can rebel against the helpless quinzis left behind. Maybe that's what Grimmjow is for? To clean up the "defected arrancars" and remaining quinzis at Hueco Mundo so the heroes won't need to do it themselves.
Halibel's fraccions were alive (sort of). With the death of Quilge who happened to be on their way and the absence of the big shots from quinzi side, they can probably save her now(?)
We don't know what Yhwach's endgame is yet. He's obviously kept Halibel alive for a good reason.
I really doubt that. Yhwach is currently at his end game, trying to kill Soul King to take his place or whatever.
Halibel was just left there for anyone to free, since there's nobody else left to guard his palace.
If only the narrative was less random, we might actually discover a coherent plot somewhere in this mess. There's the matter of Halibel and her purpose, then alliance with Aizen and finally Ishida's significance and purpose.
Maybe it's all for the post-war, to retain control of SS and everything else, but it's hard to expect anything meaningful when you know Kubo can change his mind easilly and go with what has more style or something.
Kubo is just going to do Kubo and go through things at his own pace. Eventually he figure out what Yhwach wants to do and why he has done any of the things he's done. All in good time.

And then, with the powers he got from all his fallen comrades he will use the real power of SternRitter R, The Retcon, to justify any previous "misconceptions" the reader might have gotten in past chapters.

Anyway he wants it, that's the way he needs it, anyway he wants it:ninja:.
This is just an assumption, but all those subplots thrown together in this arc are like probably to rule out which ones actually contribute to increase ratings. The ones that do contribute to ratings will be solved on-screen, while those that don't will be solved off-screen or abandoned completely to free some rooms for yet another subplots.
For example, we never get to see NaNaNa and Rose actually fight because maybe nobody really cares about either of them.
If you can't handle such a huge cast of characters, then it better to not have created they at all.

You might be on to something here. Maybe Kubo is offpaneling everyone because nobody cares about anything any more.

The real issue that I had with the Sternritters was they were all introduced at the same time, it was just too much to take in, especially when 80% of their costumes are identical.
Compare that to the way that Oda staggered the reveal of the individual members of the Donquixote Family, making every character matter and stand out, giving them time to breathe.
I still think Kubo will bring back to life those Sternritters in SS that he took out with his Ashollen or something like that..
We will get to see Renji having tough time same as Byakuya as of course brought back Sternblabla will be stronger than they were before because of reasons.
If it wont go like that its even worse than I ever thought it can be..
I was looking through Digibro's channel videos and I found this
He lost me at 2:50-3:00
That video is gold lmfao, lost my shit at "Baka Kooch"
I'm glad Kubo already disconfirmed IchigoXRukia.
Yep, video is spot on.
It was pretty enjoyable if I ignore everything after they save Rukia lololol
Looks like Bleach will be absent for the next issue. Kubo appears to be sick and could only finish half of the chapter draft.

when half is probably just as good .. or even better as the whole … should have just released the chapter anyways
Isn't a normal bleach chapter only half of a real one?:ninja:
And I also am not sad about the break. You would need to care for bleach to be sad. xD

He must be paralyzed or something.
