And I still say that Pierrot really should just cut their losses and find some new shonen to ride on for a while
They did, its called Beelzebub.
And its a hell of a lot better than Bleach.

ichigo vs Bakyuya was pretty "classic" it was kind of like rock lee vs garra with swords but not quite as good
Classic is Goku vs the Red Ribbon Army, Amuro Ray vs Char, or an even better example, any Fist of the North Star fight.
That strikes me as "classic".

I meant a series that just forces Bleachs anime to end, not something alongside it like Beezle or Tegami Bachi.
Oh, and there's a spoiler:
! Ichigo doesn't know how to use his Fullbringer power (the kanji shuriken), but Ginjou reminds him it's tied to his Shinigami power…and he fires a Getsuga Tenshou. (yeah, how anticlimactic)
! Oh, and Orihime is now attacked by the new bad guys.
was going to say "great so we have ichigo tossing around a swastica like he is a ninja with a shurikan, and his special fullbring power is just his normal shinigami power. oh and orihime gets kidnapped again"
but then realized i was just repeating summary. pathetic chapter
Chad's pride being his skin is such bullshit I can't even. I've done nothing but bash/take the piss out of BLEACH for like two years now, but Christ, this has gone from laughably bad to just execrable. I think I'm going to compile a list of the series's greatest disappointments.

Kubo: Right! So I have this entirely new type of power, and a new group of dudes who use it! I can introduce all sorts of random shit now! Total freedom! I'll have on use broken transmutation, one can shrink cute stuff, another can set Timers of Doom on people!
Oh, I guess I'll have Ichigo get these powers too.
Hmm, new powers for Ichigo…
...
...
...
...sigh.

that's so insulting it huts, i'm trying to come up with a saying that fits the situation but i can't. The best i can come up with is Kubo is trying to polish a turd with a clone of the same turd.

no, i'd say this is the only list entry
bleach is just a casualty to his horrendous writing, under a homeless blind man it'd be mediocre at best.

omigod kubo we did not see this plot twist coming!!!!!!1111!!!
@Cyan:
omigod kubo we did not see this plot twist coming!!!!!!1111!!!
God, I'm so dissapointed
Why though.
If Ichigo had regained all his powers here, people would be complaining "omg Kubo why make him lose the powers if it was gonna be only 10 chapters later that he gets them back. Thats bad writing."
And if he doesn't get them immediately back "Omg Kubo quit wasting our time with some plot and the introduction of new characters and lets just have more nonstop continuous fights again with an overpowered protagonist."
Im personally glad he didn't get all his powers back yet. Now if Kubo puts him in an orange suit then… yeah we all can stop reading Bleach then.
There .
@Sphyer:
For the first time since he defeated Aizen, Ichigo is using special powers. This is an extremely significant moment. .
Everytime I read a Bleach spoiler I have the strange urge to go and brush my teeth. Seriously Getsuga Tenshou is to Ichigo what Rasengan is to Naruto but at least Naruto tries to change its shape from time to time with Ichigo it just stays that generic energy blast of doom.
We should have seen it coming. The shape of the weapon, the obsession with Shinigami powers…yeah, a Getsuga Tenshou is the only thing Ichigo knows how to use anymore.
@No:
There .

I find this ironic for some reason.
I don't get it, why would Ichigo have any pride or affection towards being a shinigami? how many times have they commited genocide in this story that directly effected him, like twice? How one sided the fight in karakura town was, would lead you to believe the Hollow threat is widely exaggerated as well. kidnapped/attempted to execute his granny-girlfriend, tried to prevented him from rescuing his stalker/dumb/hugetats-girlfriend. Hell i'm betting the SS will end up trying to kill him by the time this arcs done.
Let's not forget, the original royal gey that was made by the shinigami was aparently forged by actualy comiting genocide in the human world, ya know the whole , obliterating everything and everyone in a city radius thing ?
For a key. Because the King likes to be so mysterious and cool he has to live in secret dimension within a secret dimension.

Spirit King confirmed for Leonardo Dicaprio.
I am seriously not shocked in the least that this happened. In fact, my own sister called that he'd use Getsuga Tenshou this chapter or the next. And she hasn't read a chapter of Bleach since Gin's arm was severed. (SYMBOLIC OF MY SISTER'S BREAK OF THE MANGA WHOAOAOAOA.)

Also symbolic of the fact you never closed off your quote.
YOHOHOHO!!! :ninja:
DerpsyCarts needs to learn to read her posts before submitting.
ANYWAYS. So, Orihime. How does everyone feel about Save Orihime Arc 2: Electric Boogaloo?
The funny thing about the key ?
That is actualy something that intrigued me, because I thought it was extremely interesting that they would go so far just for a key, so I thought that could be an insight into how twisted these people could be.
But then Kubo has (insert Kubo has shity memory joke here) so I shouldn't get my hopes up.
Who here said their brother was hyped up to see the King in the anime ? Havoc ?
@No:
Who here said their brother was hyped up to see the King in the anime ? Havoc ?
It was me. He was watching the last episode of the anime and at the end he´s face was like :wassat:. So yeah, he already can tell there will be no King Arc soon.
Which episode precisely ?
And…..I feel for the guy, that was the only reason I kept on reading through the war arc.
And worst of all I started reading at like chapter 400 ish so I only had to wait for a couple of months for the end but.....all those pointless pointless chapters I've had to read to have read it all…...
The last episode of the anime. Ichigo already defeated Aizen. And in the preview for the next one, they show every shinigami okay and all that. So he assumed that there will be no King.
Oh we are already at this point ?
Makes you sad how unbalanced the whole war was.
On the other hand Yamamoto is like the only shinigami I even like so his death I would not like. Incidently, if he did defeat Aizen in their fight cause of the sword in his stomach, it would have been far more epic then "Gay bondage" used by Ichigo.
Yeah i think everyone was waiting to see the king, and now we are in a doll house. It would have been awesome that karakura town was totally destroyed and that the only survivors were the friends of Ichigo, thanks to the shinigamis. Then they could have some plot relevance, wanting to get revenge with Ichigo or something like that. And Ichigo could have develop some kind of goal in this manga.
And we could stil have Ginjou and co show up as last minute power up squad.
And don't worry about double posting, my spam has you covered XD
What's up with the Getsuga Tenshou rage?
A few weeks ago you guys were complaining about Ichigo supposed to pull new "fullbringer" powers out of his ass. Now you are complaining about him using old powers when he was unable to use any of his powers for a long time.
Not trying to defend Getsuga Tenshou being his only move, but everything but using it now would be a major asspull.
Because he was suposed to get fullbring powers.
And those are now turned into the one single attack he has been spanning for years.
See the line of thought ?

I find Getsuga Tenshou quite the boring attack. And even tho I didnt except anything quite like the fullbring abilities show so far, i was expecting something different that the Getsuga. Just like when he learned to use the mask, i thought he will change in some way or even get a new kind of sword. But a a shuriken tenshou feels kind of weak. Maybe he needs more training.
So is Kubo trying to tell us that Getsuga Tenshou was a fullbringer power all along?
@No:

As far as I understood the previous chapters, he was supposed to get back his shinigami powers (well, and fullbring powers in the more recent ones, but I understood that as "get fullbring powers to unleash shinigami powers again"). Considering his object is his badge, at least for me it's quite obvious his fullbring is something like "become a shinigami again" or "get a shinigami sword". Of course he would use his signature shinigami technique in this transformation again.
And I agree on GT being retarded, don't get me wrong - but right now, for his first time using fullbring, there are no options. Maybe we will get some new techniques later.
Well, most likely not, but you can still hope.
@Maes:

"I lied, you never were a shinigami to begin with !"
"But…..why ?"
"Uhm, because......MILK !"

the sad thing in bleach is that you can't sum up a chapter
summing it up is essentially telling the whole chapter page by page.
And that actualy happened when Aizen did his whole "I planned your whole life" speech.
you know usually when i hear an anime is going to have a hollywood movie i get excited for a sec and then think "oh shit, its going to suck"
but bleach was opposte. first i was like "really bleach?" but now if i think of bleach chapters it seems like we could get almost perfect adaption.
i mean if this was a real action movie, these last 5 chapters would take up like 3 minutes at most of the movie. it will take anime 2 episodes probably, but a real acting movie would be like 3 minutes to blab these powers and have ichigo run from a bear.
which brings why the movie may be good. usually we bitch about how they cut so much or changed stuff cause of time obviously. yet in bleach they may have to ADD stuff, lol.

It's retarded because fullbring was set up as an entirely new type of power, which people used to produce completely new and unique effects. It didn't make any sense, but thats the status quo you always have to deal with in Bleach.
When Ichigo uses this new type of power and all he farts out is the same shit he's been using +400 chapters, it not only doesn't fit with the other fullbringer abilities, but also signals a complete and utter creative bankrupcy on Kubos part.
And there are other ways to manifest shinigami-symbolizing powers than the chocolate super swirly king of bland energy blasts.
ANYWAYS. So, Orihime. How does everyone feel about Save Orihime Arc 2: Electric Boogaloo?
She will be nerfed. There will be much Kurosaki KUN! Shouting. Ichigo will show up in the nick of time and pose in the wind with a faaaaaabulous Fullbringer induced hairstyle while she stares in wide eyed wonder.
Business as usual.
I dub Ichigo's new Stand Fullbringer power Nickleback.

I already called it "Back in Black" last week…though I sort of get your line of thinking: bland band for a bland protagonist.
Regarding the whole Getsuga Tenshou nonsense: it's just the train of thought that lead to this whole bland conclusion:
-He needs to become a Fullbringer to "regain his Shinigami Powers": wait, why does he need them back...and why the heck does he need yet another set of powers to do so?
-He activates his "power": Really, the manji from the hilt of his Bankai? Well...maybe it seems like he could do something new with it even if it's his "Shinigami powers".
-He uses Getsuga Tenshou: never mind.
I read the spoilers and I can't even…. Slams fist into table Wtf Kubo?

As of now he sure doesn't need his powers back it's just that he wants them back. I'm sure though later in the series we will learn that he needed them back all along because Aizen escaped from prison and the lamers of the Gotei 13 can't do a thing against him without Ichigo's help. Of course Vizards v.2 will join the fight sooner or later and will get utterly pwned as well. Ichigo will then perform his final Getsuga Tenshou so he can go on a quest to regain his powers once again.
It's basically just rinse and repeat from there on. :ninja:

It's hilarious because I could actually see this happening, except you forgot the part where Ginjou reveals himself to be Aizen.
Watched Aizen's defeat animated just now. He definitely seems more desperate in the Anime towards the end. Reminds me of the end of Death Note, sort of.
That ending short was hilarious. Kon, foiled by boobs. Of course.

More like when Ginjou turns out to be SUPER MEGA POWERFUL EVIL and they have to break Aizen out from prison.
SAVE AIZEN ARC
hmm, well at least Kubo was planning on giving Ichigo fullbringer ever since this arc started. I think…...I just said this because I just remembered Ishida was saying that Ichigo had some weird aura coming from him.
Read the spoilers. So…..more Ichigo vs Pig Doll and a suspicious character runs into Orihime?
.......

Agreed, on both the Aizen point and the ending omake.
Though…..I have the feeling that after this arc finishes in the anime, we'll get random filler. Calling it now.
