Holy NaruJesus this back and forth is better than the actual manga.

Original chair was killed by.. YWahsc? Aizen himself when he stood up?
But you forget, Aizen can create illusions and made it seem like the chair was destroyed. Kubo did one thing right that arc by making us mourn over the loss of the chair, but got us back later when we see the glorious chair again.
-
Wait, what? That's…so random. You had three original master races introduced in the first 50 chapters or so and then...there's a new one? After 400 chapters?
NaruJesus have mercy. I'm beginning to think I less dodged a bullet by stopping after the Aizenanigans and more I got called home the day before the boys went over the top at the Somme... :blink:
Chad was a Fullbringer.
Those arms-weapons/shield he could do and wasn't explained at the time was a fullbring, so it wasn't exactly out of the blue, just that Kubo took his sweet time to get to that.
If I recall correctly a fullbring was when someone was capable of embuing strong feelings into a very personal object and that created a special power/ability. Chad's had something to do with his grandpa, Ichigo used his shinigami license plaque to turn it into a new sword after he lost his shinigami powers.Also, since you where asking for big moments, Unohana was the original Kenpachi.
Unohana was that very nice captain, head of the healing squad, if you don't remember. Turns out she was originaly the one who made the title Kenpachi and she was an absolute fucking beast. One day she fought with an orphan boy that was able to beat her, that's the series regular Kenpachi, so she stepped down after recomending him to shinigami, or something along those lines.
Orphan boy Kenpachi had apparently held back since she was the only one who could remotly mesure up to him and he didn't want to kill her, he wanted to fight more, so he subconscioulsy put a limit on himself which made always fight at the same level as his opponent, that's why he wasn't able to hear his zanpakto. When the time arose Unohana took him into a training session where they fought for days in mortal kombat, so she kept almost killing him and then heal him until he lost those limitations and was able to kill her. -
And Kenpachi's Zanpakuto was Yachiru (his lieutenaut) this whole time.

And Kenpachi fought a brain-in-jar that threw meteors.

Hibari fought against a Luchador.

Urahara fought againsta Jojo Character.
Shunsui fought against a big cheese that turned out to be a space flaming owl god.

Funny thing is, those are arguably the best 3 villains/fights of the final stretch of the manga.
Bleach was fun to read when it went into outrageous amounts of silliness, although Kubo probably thought that what he was doing was genious.
Except Pepe. That went too far.
-
Mayuri: ha-ha! I have understood your ability
Hand: you haven't understood my ability
cliffhanger as one of them are hit with an attack to indicate the fight may be over
repeat that cycle 9 timesAlthough that battle was particularly boring, I found swiss cheese flamingo guy to be insultingly horrible. Especially since he survived for literally no reason at all to fight an off-screen battle against Kira for some even more unfathomable reason.
-
Let me try to remember the evil alphabet:
! A is for asspull, I mean, the allmighty, you can do anything Ichigo Shonen.
B is for balance, meaning reflection meaning whatever.
C is for constrict? like the initial power of the giant hand, to wrigle things around, like a hand.
D is for deathdealing, somehow linked to increasing deadly dossage of things trully a 「STAND」 out ability
E is for explosion, trully the most fearsome of all shonen powers
F is for fear, that in pokemon logic is weak to ice
G is for glutony, because clearly the canibal is the one that deserves to survive this bullshit
H is for heat, actual fire powers just because someone needs to have them, is in the contract
! J is for jail, early alphabet nazis had low key powers
K is for <no one="" knows="">, so awesome robot quincy
L is for love, Arroniero kind of love, why did kubo give the black character this love twice?
M is for MIRACLE, like he miraclously survived 3 captains just to be betrayed by ywashch
N is for no one knows, so awesome quincy butler
O is for overkill, nah, whatever, butler-san you were the best!
P is for power, her power was super strenght? The chad of the Alphabet Nazis!
Q is for question, tried to use a brainy power on Kenpachi? see how it turned out with Remy
R is for roar, why did Kenpachi offscreen 3 of these, only for the later ones to get their own volume of battles?
S is for superstar, we didn't deserve you, dumb luchador who I forgot, but everyone loved, and I wanted to be cool, so I loved you as well, please dont' hate me
! U is for undershirt, he tried to attack Aizen and the Chair, with hilarious results!
V is for visionary, as in imagination is only good to think of another you to think of a bigger meteor, and other lesser fake yous
! X is for x-axis, if you are an imposible sniper, you evolve into a chesse monster and then into millions of evil flamingos, I want this pokemon
Y is for yourself and also yourself, wwhhyy ddiidd tthheessee nneeeeddeeeedd ttoo bbee ttwwoo cchhaarraacctteerrss?
Z is for zombie, because the one that made undead abominations of their allies is the one that deserves to survive</no>I couldn't remember I, T or W, and I'm not certain on K and N.

Some were never explained and never will be since I doubt Kubo/Shueisha feels like releasing a databook.
I was iron (the guy who fought Hitsugaya)
T was thunder (one of the girl group)
W was wind (the guy with the cut tongue who was killed by Sentomaru needles in his clothes)
K was ??? (the robot-like guy who fought Suifen)
N was ??? (the gunman who took Shusui's eye) -

Aww, we start talking about Bleach and you guys don't give me a buzz? :(

I want the next villain group to be emoji based.
Like they are.. normal people, who once saw a Shinigami and a Quincy touching, so they are the antithesis to a Fullbring, because they have their opposite powers.
-
Aww, we start talking about Bleach and you guys don't give me a buzz? :(
You will be there when the movie is released and we spam 20-30 pages about of how badly it was alongside references to pre-Hueco Mundo moments and the Rock Musical.

Oh shit, she was?
I totally forgot that. -
Fullbringers are "special humans", ESPers in any other series.
Ah ok. So they're…not a race? Or they're the ESP race?
@The:
Well Chad ended up marrying the love of his life, the floor. He then became a boxer and fighting regular people her could instead knock other people onto the floor. Ishida became a Doctor, and I assume he secretly is seeing Mayuri (the mad scientist guy) on his off time. Many wonder why he would date a guy that tortured his own people, but not like Kubo has been one for any consistency.
The one true pairing was Aizen and the chair he sat on while in prison, and now they live happily together in solidarity.
Oh Chad, I remember early Bleach when you were cool :/. But wait, he became a boxer? What? Why? Wasn't he still supernaturally strong for a human? Does he box hollows or something?
I thought Ishida didn't want to be a doctor? Something about his dad? Or am I remembering that wrong? Doesn't surprise me that he'd end up dating the mad scientist, I just figured he'd turned out to be a good guy all along(TM) who had to commit Mengele-style genocidal experiments for the greater good(TM) :getlost:
Chad was a Fullbringer.

If I recall correctly a fullbring was when someone was capable of embuing strong feelings into a very personal object and that created a special power/ability. Chad's had something to do with his grandpa, Ichigo used his shinigami license plaque to turn it into a new sword after he lost his shinigami powers.Huh? I thought in Hueco Mundo the implication was that his arms were some kinda proto Hollow power? But ok…so they "bring" out the "full" potential of an item? That's...funny.
Also, since you where asking for big moments, Unohana was the original Kenpachi.
Unohana was that very nice captain, head of the healing squad, if you don't remember. Turns out she was originaly the one who made the title Kenpachi and she was an absolute fucking beast.

When the time arose Unohana took him into a training session where they fought for days in mortal kombat, so she kept almost killing him and then heal him until he lost those limitations and was able to kill her.So wait, she was a secret badass? That's…strange. But wait, why did he need to kill the other secret badass? And re: KKK's comment below, his zanpakuto was the cute little girl? So he couldn't hear her when she spoke? That's weird...
And Kenpachi's Zanpakuto was Yachiru (his lieutenaut) this whole time.
Yeah this is totally weird. He couldn't hear his zanpak cause he was suppresing his power? Wasn't the whole thing during his fight with Ichigo that he was too focussed on his own power to work in synchrony with someone else? So not so much being deaf to his sword as just ignoring it? Adding some weird suppression shenanigans sounds like a weird path to take to the same end point setup during the Ichigo fight (in the end he hears the words of his sword and gains more power).
Man Bleach is weird…
And Kenpachi fought a brain-in-jar that threw meteors.
Wait, what's the difference between a brain-in-a-jar and a brain in someone's head? They're both brains right? Is being in a jar somehow more conducive to throwing meteors??? :blink::blink::blink:
This thread has blown up so much I can't even follow half of what's being discussed. There was an alphabet? So like, 26 new bad guys?? Wtf?

They are as much as a race as devil fruit users, certain humans suffer some phenomenae (hollow encounters? shinigami? something about surviving encounters with the other "races"), and obtain super powers after it.

You see, it is more like she was always "speaking" to Kenpachi through being a Shinigami. It was Kenpachi who never realized that until later.
This thread has blown up so much I can't even follow half of what's being discussed. There was an alphabet? So like, 26 new bad guys?? Wtf?
You see, there was a group of Quincies dressed like Nazis whose strongest members had special abilities both starting with a letter of the alphabet.
Kenpachi managed to kill 3 of them off-screen.

Ah! And they went all Holocaust on Hueco Mundo and sent Harribel to a dungeon and put her there until the end of the series. Like seriously, they showed one scene with her and never addresed that again.

I thought Yachiru was Kenpachi's Bankai rather than his sword spirit.

Nazi Quincies holocausting hollows? Sounds very Kubo. But seriously, why 26 ubermensch members? Thats such a stupid high number, but then...

You see, the secret for a perfect meteor throw is in the usage of an adequate saline solution, that was the real contribution of Kabuto to Edo Tensei. Or do you really think it was all on Madara's account?

Best part is how Kubo twice had the main villain kill his own followers twice. Once with all the fodder to power up his 4 strongest, then killing the last two remaining because Kubo made them too broken and couldn't figure out an actual way to have them beat. That and probably the fact he had to wrap up the series.
Chad just boxes regular people, and if there was any reason given I wouldn't be able to tell you. As for Ishida, he hated his dad and the doctor profession because he saw his dad doing an autopsy on his mom and made him think his dad was a deplorable person. Then you find out that actually Ishida's father was collecting a type of silver that formed from Quincy blood to create a bullet, a bullet which happened to momentarily stop Bach's future seeing and future changing powers just long enough for Ichigo to deal a killing blow. So because of that Ishida saw the error of his ways and became a doctor because that way he can stop a literal god in the future.
-

Funny thing is, there were actually more than 26. The letter Y was given to a pair of twins, Uryu also got the latter A (turns out he was good all along surprise) and Gremmy created two additional Sternritter. You might think even Kubo would have to admit that handling 26 characters at once is quite the chore. But I'm sure he was like, "Nah, dude. The more, the merrier."
-
Oh, also, Zangetsu, Ichigo's sword spirit (the guy in black with the visor) wasn't actually his sword spirit (even though he acted and operated exactly like one to the point where Yoruichi and everyone else thought he was a regular Zanpaktou and could do all the regular stuff like Bankai). It turns out he was the embodiment of Ichigo's Quincy powers, as his mom was a Quincy, and the REAL Zangetsu was Hollow Ichigo (you know, the one that tried to take over his body like five times and ALSO operated like a normal hollow spirit to the point where all of the Vizards thought he was one, what a coincidence). Quincy Zangetsu actually wanted to STOP Ichigo from becoming a Soul Reaper (hahaha no) and thus pretended to be his Zanpaktou in order to supress his true, ULTRA POWERFUL soul reaper powers and instead gave him Quincy spirit energy (which is apparently indistinguishable from real soul reaper powers, as no one…I think you get the idea.)
Okay, to be fair, during Ichigo's battle in the mind with HI where he beats him and gets access to his Hollow Mask, HI does yell "I am Zangetsu!" a few times after Ichigo asks where Not-Zangy is, but then immediately goes on to say:
Maybe you don't know it, but Zangetsu and I have always been one. Zangetsu and I are your spirit energy. I was just a part of Zangetsu before. We share the same body. But (skip several speech bubbles about death and skin covering bones blah blah blah) my powers increased. I became dominant, and Zangetsu became a part of me.
So my point still stands, give that this is apparently Zangetsu speaking here.
-

If you consider that bankai is the zanpakuto's true form then it's not off the mark.

Wait he had the big bad do that again? Jesus christ. At least he had a pseudo reason this time sounds like, as opposed to "I'm bored with how long its taking you all to win a fight I could win on my own" :/
Future seeing and future changing powers…? Christ it's good thing Kubo wasn't writing a shounen battle manga, else the nonsensical and stupidly broken powers might rob the fights of any suspense or tension, as you had no way of predicting how things might go using previously provided knowledge about the mechanics of the fictional universe...
Oh and Ishida's character progression sounds dumb. Quelle surprise.@Your:

There's obviously a limit to how "by the seat of your pants" you can write a long running story. But god damn. Did no one tell the man he didn't have to cannabilise his earlier work for every possible explanation in his later work? Especially if it makes no damn sense.
But still, reminiscing about those early interactions between Ichigo and Hollowgestu is damn nostalgic. Bleach was the first manga I ever bought a hard copy of at the first anime convention I ever went to. I have a bunch of songs in my playlist that specifically evoke the memories of reading through 200 or so chapters of Bleach in a week.
Growing older sucks some times. Or maybe the lesson is avoid reading most manga serially if you're as easily let down as I am. God knows I've had that idea come up several times in the years since coughTokyo Ghoulcough...

I still haven't forgiven Kubo for that plot turn.
Because Zangetsu was a mentor figure to Ichigo, and it was nice seeing their bond form in the SS arc, the key to Ichigo getting stronger, but also to understand more of himself.
Then naturally, he has to be implied to be connected to some Quincy emperor, undercutting it all. And then, and then steer the plot to say he was more responsible for Masaki's death than Grand Fisher…...who, need you remember, was the villain Ichigo had the most personal of grudges against.By the way, if you're down for these breakdowns in greater detail, check out Applied Logic.

Wow that's even more undercutting than I expected. Good to see Kubo managed to so thoroughly remove any and all facets of Ichigo's character that I found interesting. Remember when he called Japanese 911 and asked for a bunch of ambulances for the punks he was about to beat up? I remember, as does Pepperidge Farm, but I sure as shit doubt Kubo does. :/
Oh and I'm very familiar with Applied Logic hahaha. I think I mentioned this elsewhere but I found this place through that blog after it popped up on a google search about the crazy nonsense that was Aizen's plan back in the HM arc :P. I lurked in that particular thread years before I actually signed up here.

Ooooh, that's one of the coolest moments Ichigo ever had. It makes more sad to see him as the plot goes on, where it feels the story is controlling him, rather than the other way around, and like five people manipulate him.
Oh cool. The last article I did was just announcing some novel/post-series stuff.

.The thing that makes the killing of Nazi Thor so weird is that Kubo had ended like 4 chapters in a row with him getting torn apart. He was even fighting Kenpachi, Byakuya and Toshiro at once, which is like Kubo's holy trinity of side characters. Heck, Byakuya unleashes his ability right before Ichigo goes to confront Yhwach. Wouldn't that have been the perfect opportunity to end that battle? The only reason he kept coming back was to pad out the story and I guess give himself a chance to show off his skills at character design? This is why it's so teethgratingly annoying people jump to Kubo's defense as though he was rushed when he's completely incapable of writing something of substance and constantly waste pagespace for no reason. One would think if he was so pressed for time, that he wouldn't make the final confrontation between Ichigo and Yhwach 15 fucking chapters long with no progression.

The least insane wtf Quincy Nazi was the one that looked like a delicate girl but Yumichika figured out was actually a man cause he smelled like semen…

Actually….
Giselle was a pretty scary opponent, as her blood brainwashed/turned people into zombies, even going as far to infect Hitsugaya and Matsumoto, a bunch of 11th Division dudes, and Bambietta (bomb Quincy).
but lol @ that line. It's weirder in the English manga, as Yumichika says "you smell like a man" -
I can't find an image, but I remember that unfortunate manga stream translation where the Zero division head guy was getting ready to stomp Ywach, but instead of calling him a black ant he called him black. I think it was something along the lines of "Return to the earth you black" where the ant word at the end was missing.
-

Actually she is a woman. Not that the scene was exactly sensitive to her being a trans woman, but… yeah...
Btw, this reminded me that fight kinda revealed Charlotte Cuuhlhourne probably is a trans woman as well (despite keeping a "masculine" body), a fact that had never crossed my mind before that even though she uses a female name and refers to herself in feminine ("reina"). I liked that.

Brainwashing is a solid villain ability.
Giselle never made me think "trans" but I think it was because characters like her tend to just be cross dressers. I didn't recall the whole scene around that situation..that weird bit of dialogue just stuck out. smells like a man is much better phrased but still weird. How strongly did Giselle smell, pretty sure Yumichika was not in striking distance lol.

I don't think Kubo intended her as such but I've adopted it in my fics.

Nazi Luchador was tons of fun. I think everyone here can agree.
Nazi semen was kind of a face palm moment.
Nazi Thor was just boring. It was kind of like the Yammy off screaned fight 2.0.You need to keep in mind how Kubo does his stuff. Most of it was done more seriously than what it should have.
Then terrible pacing, some dumb powers, guys that were supposed to be taken seriously getting fodderized, dumb twists (ICHIDA WASN'T ACTUALLY BAD?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!) and everything (and I mean everything) involving the main villain being just fucking horrible.His power btw, was forseeing every possible outcome and changing it however he wanted to.
The Allmight he called it. An Allmight piece of shit of a fight.
One of his fights involved a guy that used ink. The friggin battle was just pages of spilled ink. Kubo spilled ink into his fucking work place and thought "wow, I can't waste this paper. I'll just draw the fight around it."
That villain was a charisma vacuum. Fuck him. Those chapters were painful to read. -
Nazi alchemist was pretty cool though. Especially since even an OP ability couldn't save him from dying from getting his heart ripped out

Special hatred goes to the nazi brain.
No seriously, there was a kid who turned out to be a literal brain when defeated.
Had the power of imagination, and of course, in smug Bleach villain fashion, didn't just imagine his opponent to be dead. How he "lost" is even more mind-numbing. -
Nazi owl, nazi love guru, nazi god, both arms of gods but no legs, nazi betraying nazi, killing two gods which doing once would result in the end of the universe monk shinigami and afro gangsta shinigami being cool but fodder, i believe the list goes on but if i keep talking i might end saying that the nazis were cool and that would be repeating Naruto, so…
The Nazis were cool in Naruto?
Nazi Luchador was tons of fun. I think everyone here can agree.

Also good to see he went for a repeat round of one of the worst parts of the HM arc by bringing back another Yammy.
And the friend-group-relevant drama of the Nazi arc was Ishida turning into a Nazi, but not actually being a Nazi all along? I mean, that sounds pretty dumb. But hearing about this arc I'd have been more worried that he was gonna reveal that Ishida was a lady all along so he could justify doing yet another damsel in distress arc :getlost:…
Unrelated to video, but what does your signature spell out? TPGEZ?
Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a night. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

On paper, it sounds like it could be a blast, but Kubo has a way that even hilariously bad stuff can be tedious. I probably would've dropped the series had I not joined this forum and get to participate in the fun of just making fun of all the insane stuff that happened in this series.
As for brain kid, his opponent should've been Rukia, so death by brain freeze would've at least made some sort of sense.
