Bleach has a plot now?
Ichigo and the Soul Reapers fight a bunch of guys because they exist.
I think that's about it.

Guess which manga people stopped reading the most out of all Shonen Jump Titles?
I](http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2011-11-01/goo-poll/hit-shonen-jump-manga-people-stopped-reading)f you said "Naruto" YOU WIN….something. I dunno.
Saw that, but polls like that aren't often truly representative of a population, so I'd need more details to know how true it really is
Isnt the terribleness of Naruto enough evidence. ;)
Okay,Okay. You are right, its just a poll. You can never be sure with those!

Yeah, but Kochikame is number 2 (and its been running for over 30 years, and is a gag series, so of course most of its audience drops off before the end) One Piece is number 3 and Bleach is number 5, and Dragonball is 11, (and its been finished for 15 years) so it doesn't exactly mean much. In fact about half the series on the list are ones that finished already, some well over a decade ago. Dr. Slump is on there!
Especially since in a similar poll, readers were asked "Which manga is the reason you buy Weekly Shonen Jump?" and One Piece, Kochikame, Naruto, and Bleach also made the top five in that poll.
Cmon Robby. I know we love One Piece, but its only natural that some people may not feel as inclined to follow it till the end after 10 YEARS. And besides, see how many people said 100 and One Piece only 89 on a comparative score. And One Piece will get new fans anyways.
My point is: Dont be discouraged because One Piece is in there too. One Piece has like a billion fans back in Japan.

except….it's a random poll on some Japanese website. There's no way nearly as many people voted on it as people who rate and read the magazine as well as buy the volumes.
Ok. You guys win. You rule, I drool and all that jazz.
It was nice for a moment. To feel people in Japan were sick of Kishi's BS.

Uhm. You realize that applies to Naruto as well, right?

That's still… very high. But considering every single series listed is a long running super popular property, (some of them over 20 years old, many of them finished) and there isn't a single short lived actually unpopular series on there...
My point is: Dont be discouraged because One Piece is in there too. One Piece has like a billion fans back in Japan.
I'm not discourage? And it's a japanese poll.
Its just rubbish all around, is what I'm saying.
I already admitted defeat, jeez.
And I know its a japanese poll.
You might as well have pointed out that less people stop reading Bleach according to that crappy poll LOL. That alone makes the Poll BS.

I think that's about it.
Ah, Kubo. Ever the visionary.
Is that chapter that Sai brother magically knows his codename?(did the guy looked a bit like suigetsu or sakura to you?)
Mistranslation, never happened
@RobbyBevard:
The same store that sells sharingans by the dozen.
But, despite being able to get dna of dozens of legendary, presumably well guarded ninja who would have had their bodies burned presumably (and a bunch of ninja of absolutely no importance but who were referenced once in the story) he still couldn't find a single trace of Jiraiya. Never mind that the guy had 8 feet of hair and probably shed like a dog all over every hotspring in the country.
And… bodily fluids elsewhere.
The "official" reason is because "Jiraiya was washed away in the ocean." But the actual reason is very likely, very pathetically... because Jiraiya is alive, and Kishi needed a different excuse to not have his zombie present.
Jiraiya is dead
@Oga:
I don't see Madara getting beat, so yeah, the kages are gonna lose and Naruto will probably save them. Fantastic.
Doubt it, Naruto will probably help through. WHere was Narutojesus when the metoer's were falling.
@The:
You know, considering that Madara alone requires the full kage lineup, I find it pretty damn impressive how the 3rd hokage managed to beat 2 zombiekages himself, including the one that beat Madara + Kyuubi.
Maybe "confusing" is a better word than "impressive", seeing as how I don't remember anything of the Meteor-on-top-of-a-Meteor caliber occuring in that fight.
The 3rd didn't beat them. Oro was toying with him the whole fight because he is twisted. Oro said this and the databook said it. He wanted to see the 3rd jutsus.
@RobbyBevard:
Then he didn't manage his resources very well.
Then he didn't choose his timing or battleground very well.
Then why did he keep checking his arm to see how many eyes were left? Was he not counting them?
What are you talking about? First you say Kishi failed becuase he can't count, then now your grasping for straws. It seems the problem stems from not understanding how his technique worked in the first place.
He didn't choose the battleground what are you talking about?:wassat:
He doesn't know when Izangi runs out when it's active. ok i will explain his technique
Izangi has to be turned on to be used and will drain your eyes in time and close them. You see Danzo shutting off Izangi here when he taught he had Sasuke sealed http://www.mangareader.net/93-44811-5/naruto/chapter-478.html. Danzo didn't have it activated here because it drains his chakra http://www.mangareader.net/93-44811-10/naruto/chapter-478.html. He had to dodge this attack becuase the technique wasn't active. http://www.mangareader.net/93-44811-15/naruto/chapter-478.html chakra taking a dip becuase it's active. The technique has time limit http://www.mangareader.net/93-45540-5/naruto/chapter-479.html. Sasuke decides his plan of action here after figuring out Danzo's technique http://www.mangareader.net/93-45540-13/naruto/chapter-479.html. Danzo doesn't know when they close, so he has to make sure. Sasuke used a genjutsu to trick him
Everyone's not trying to create a disturbing jutsu that revives people from the dead and uses them as your tools and weapons. People trying to create new jutsus and Tobirama creating this…
! http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/9366/43451898.jpgis on a whole completely different level. Btw, what do you mean by, "everyone is trying to find ways to invent crazy jutsus"? That's not true at all. Most people haven't been shown to try and create a new jutsu but rather learn previously created ones from the past generations.
Well true, but people are trying to get more powerful and some create jutsus like Minato and the 2nd.
Creating the illusion of plot is Aizen's bankai
Plot?
What are you talking about? First you say Kishi failed becuase he can't count, then now your grasping for straws. It seems the problem stems from not understanding how his technique worked in the first place.
You have ten magic eyeballs. Six of them are used up. You then know you only have four left. It doesn't matter how long each one lasts, or if you aren't looking at it when the technique ends. You know you are running out, and that you should try a different strategy. Even if the time for each eye varies, it does not matter, you know you are running out of them, and that you have lost a bunch in this one battle.
He died because he could not count to ten.
He didn't choose the battleground what are you talking about?:wassat:
He chose to go rogue at the Kage summit to try and make a power play. He could have waited for a different time and place to have his battle. Or for someone else to soften Sasuke up first. Or not fought Sasuke at all.
Gintama is right now pulling Hiramaru-Aizen's powers the right way.
Considering that each of the brainwashed characters have interacted with Gintoki more than three times in the last 4 years, it gets pretty good, and sad.

Too awesome for Bleach
Gin didn't cut it. HE TORE IT OFF!!!!

..........his SILVER BALLS
Yeah, that's right.
A blunt sword to the face? Anyone can walk out of that.
A mindrape by a pharaoh? Time consuming to get out of, but rarely fatal.
A genkidama? If you aren't in a movie you have a 2 out of 3 chance of surviving.
A talk-no-jutsu? You can fake the "character deevolution", he's that stupid.
Getting shoved into a wall? Rite of passage from highschool!
A beat up and then marshmellow hell? Shonen Jump needs more female protagonist.
Blots of ink shaped as swordslashes? They have been useless SINCE THE BEGINING. JUST AS PLANED!!!. RAMEN!!!
A repeating punch to the gut? If you aren't edible, you probably deserve the punch.
A Manga chapter that's better that your own? If you managed to get published, this is nothing.
Getting concentrated at? It's kind of freaky, but you'll be safe.
Gigant Fists? That's going to leave a mark, but your manhood will be intact.
But Gin? Gin doesn't play around.
Damn it. I can't get all the reference. I give up. Which one is which?

OP
..I guess that shows how much I know about mangas
Kenshin
Yu Gi Oh
Medaka Box
Sket Dance
All the others you pass, I keept it Shonen Jump only on purpose, of the last 4 I recomend Sket Dance the most. And I couldn't fit Houshin Engi to the formula, Taikoubou didin't realy use the same finisher/killer move more than twice.
Thanks for the link….I want to know what the joke was lol.
I'm… surprised that I got excited seeing the 5 kages all forming a team. I didn't know Naruto could still do that to me, make me have any interest.
The rest of the chapter is just people talking a lot to make the final spread happen, but that spread is the best thing in Naruto in months, so I'm down with it. Just please don't squander this goodwill, Kishi.

They'll get the spotlight next chapter, but only to fail for the next next chapter… That tends to happen a lot, right?
Awesome onoki-madara dialogue and the last double page. Although the power levels are really fucked up.
The only top tiers are basically Naruto, Kabuto and Tobi.
Can anyone guess why I Think this is an awesome double spread? ANYONE?
!
Probably because Uzumaki "Jesus" Naruto is awesomely obscured.
Man, I'm tired of looking at the emotionless Uchihas. Madara's blank face bores me to death.
Wow, this chapter was, dare I say…........good.
I mean, there were a few questionable parts that I could nitpick (how did Raikage survive the transportation? Shouldn't he at least have some damage?), but overall it was fine. It had another character succeeding where Naruto failed (even if it was that dumb swordsman guy who no one cares about) and, well...just that awesome last page double spread.
Not quite Raikage's Belt Gold, but I'll give this a Passable Purple.

Agreed. Passable Purple it is.
Gaara is so boss.
I will be lmaoing if they will be beaten by the zombie and a Naruto clone beats him :lmao
How did the Raikage get his arm back? I thought he cut that one off. :S
The rikages arm isnt spposed to be cut
an i have aquation that was bothering me tsunade is the first grandchild so che have somme of hes dna why dose che not have mokton jutsu
Well. The last page spread is great indeed, and I LOL'ed hard seeing Naruto was "in" Oonoki's crotch. Here's hoping that the 5 Kages can actually handle Madara, and not getting beat down by some super special jutsu, only to be saved by (again) Narujesus
Bleach is out I couldnt read that flashback just staring at Riruka's ass..
^ there is? my brain is as blank as bleach :|
So if we had this chapter say I dunno, when the characters first got their power ups, it probably would have made for a better fight even if they were all short as hell. But no. Kubo's going to give us back stories to people who've already died. obvious troll is obvious.
I literally starting skipping pages when the flash back started because I couldn't have cared less at that point. But, had he devoted the whole chapter to the flash back and placed the chapter before all this shit happened, sure I would have read it.
Can we all agree that the teddy bear saying the attack was probably the greatest part of this chapter?
Oh, also. The boots thing. I laughed so fucking hard.
And can I just say that the butler guy's power is fucking ridiculous? ((" Die" I thought, and so she did. ))
Naruto still proves that it has something left to offer. I currently consider it leagues above Fairy Fail and Bleh.
Gaara looks kind of cool on the first page.
I don't understand what Riruka is talking about. They're acting as if they were always chased by people because of their powers, or something. They lived their own lives, doing whatever they want. So what the fuck is she talking about? If something bad happened, it was because THEY did something, or their family did something bad (in case of WomanChad, can't remember her name).
Okay Bleach was a whole lot of someone trying to sound deep. Still can't bring myself to care about the Fullbringers. Lol Rukia "You best settle down."
How does a watch grant you the power to kill with your mind? Dirty boots girl seems to be the only one of the Fullbringers that isn't a selfish douche or just flat out unlikable.
This is like the 4 yonkous taking on a Gol D roger zombie.
I have no fucking clue what the point of those flashbacks were. At all.
And what the fuck is up with Riruka's philosophy of "certain people are preyed upon because there are so few of them." Umm…...................no? There are plenty of instances in nature and in the human social class system where the "prey" far outnumbers the "predator."
And what did Riruka do to Rukia at the end?
--- Update From New Post Merge ---
I mean, what are we supposed to feel for these characters? Are we supposed to hate them, feel sorry for them? I mean, I just...I don't feel anything except confusion.
And how did Rukia activate her sword? What was that thing linking her to it?
Wow, that was like a year's worth of Bleach dialogue in just one chapter.
And what the fuck is up with Riruka's philosophy of "certain people are preyed upon because there are so few of them." Umm…...................no? There are plenty of instances in nature and in the human social class system where the "prey" far outnumbers the "predator."
Maybe when preys are always cornered, when the other individuals of the same pack just flee and there are like 4, 5 predators against 1 prey. That's what i think she meant.
But yeah as you said there many examples in nature where the prey outnumbers the predator, most obvious one i can think of is the anteater.
This Bleach chapter was the most confusing one ever due to the flashbacks =/. I had a feeling the flashbacks were totally useless and the chapter might have been better without them. But then again Bleach has been boring ever since Ichigo defeated Aizen and Kubo doesn't know what to do anymore… He should have ended Bleach just there to be honest.
Naruto was ok. Knowing that there are still ninja's who know the FTG technique might hint towards Naruto learning it soon. Since he will probably master it and use it without any tags or seals. Last page with all the Kages was bad ass though!
Naruto chapter was awesome.
Favorite line.
"Marrying is the only thing I intend to do late".
Just one thing:
! RAIKAGE 2 ARMS - HOW AND WHEN?
^ Wrong thread.
Naruto was alright I guess. Bleach made me vomit. Absolutely pointless flashbacks. I feel nothing for those guys.
