How did he of all the espada jump up to #6 anyway. He definitely was the least impressive in terms of combat power (and anything)
Because changing everyone's tattoos would be too troublesome.

Ooh, this is where I get to dig up my Kubo Tite quote compendium!
@Kubo:
At first, I didn't plan that there would be Taicho, the head Captain of the Soul Society. The captains, they didn't exist at first.
Seems about right.
@Purple:
And even then, what's the point of making a whole division oriented towards just melee? Is there some strategic benefit to… I guess... fighting hollows by having a purely strength division? And why were the 11th division, whose focus was melee strength, dispatched for investigations of the disappearances in the far out districts?
Why would a company make a whole department oriented towards accounting if the law department could do the job?
Some people simply specialize best in melee combat and can learn the most there. Why would they spread their fighters which are best in a certain discipline randomly across all their divisions when it's way easier to organize things when you know "Ah, division 11 specializes in melee fighting, so send 20 shinigami from that division against that hollow which is weak to it"?
Having some groups also adds aid in organizing things. Why did Oda add several subdivisions in Whitebeards crew? Because it probably eases organizing tasks when there's not just one huge crew who all listen to one guy and one guy only. There really doesn't even need to be a special assignment for each division, most of them might have exactly the same tasks and simply are split because it's easier to control their organization that way.

Oh come on. We all know Kubo didn't plan anything for the manga, but captains were introduced really early and I doubt even Oda started his manga imaging the Yonkou and only worked out the concept some time into the story.

Yeah, but you'd expect that nearing the end of the manga we'd at least at know what the purpose of each and every one of the divisions was. I still have no clue what the 3rd, 5th and 9th Division's purpose is.

But…what even is melee combat in the context of Soul Society? Melee, by definition is "a confused struggle; especially : a hand-to-hand fight among several people." Well, obviously fighting hand-to-hand makes no sense since the Zanpakuto are the Soul Reapers primary weapon and the only weakness of Hollows, which are practically the only enemies they fight. So I guess I'll just assume that by "melee" they mean close combat with swords. But doesn't that describe the fighting style of pretty much every single Soul Reaper we've seen? Sure, eventually some of them bust out their huge fuck-off attacks that obliterate everything within a 100 yard radius, but most of the rest of the time we do see them fighting in close combat.
I'm just saying, what's the point of having a squad that specializes in melee when that appears to be the necessary and default fighting style of almost every Soul Reaper? What other methods of combat are there?

No argument there, but again, what purpose does each division serve? I mean, why introduce the concept of each division focusing on a certain discipline and then not follow through on it?

That's not counting the overload of functions of the 2th division, and the waste of the talents of the 0th one.
I think at least one of the divisions has to specialize in jobbing, if nothing else.

The 9th division actually specializes in guarding the Seireitei. They're the security force.
They also oversee arts & culture or something like that. I know they're in charge of publicating a news magazine.

The best part is that regardless of what their function is, each division is utter crap at it.
Oh, the "do all" dutties of 2th branch are from some other organization. Great.

So Madara was the one who planned Rin's death all along in order to turn Obito to the dark side. Plus more come-full-circle-everything's-connected wankery. Oh, and now Naruto literally has Jesus powers.
You know what, I don't think I even care. This is just normal now.
Wow there was a lot of stupidity in this chapter. To list a few:
"The Dark Side"? Seriously…I hope that's just the Panda translator just watching Star Wars while doing this.
-Madara: "I'm an evil mastermind was behind everything. Even the stuff that doesn't make sense. Muhahahah!"
-Obito: "Why did you pick me?"
-Madara: "Because you're a good person." WHAT?!
-Naruto growing back Kakashi's eye bullshit.
-Pointless flashback Kakashi monologue to even further demonstrate how much of a waste Sakura is. It's Sakura's duty to save Sasuke because she's a kind girl. What? Is that Kishi's way of saying Sakura has no other quality aside from being "nice" that makes her an asset? And the sheer fact that she failed at a simple task of stabbing some paralyzed guy's eyeball only accentuates the fact that she's a complete waste of space.
-Teamwork my ass. We know Sakura and Kakashi will probably not do much considering how the former is...waste and the latter lost the one ability that made him useful for a remarkably long time.
Naruto's Jesus no Jutsu…
How many fucking times did Madara say "all according to plan" during this fucking chapter???
"Naruto, you already surpassed Hokage!"
"Sakura, you. . . . . . . . . . .still have feeling for someone who tried to kill you. You're a. . .kind girl?"
Sakura, so useful. So ninja.
Oh, and to see if I understood this correctly: Madara just snatched Kakashi's sharingan to go to the other dimension thingie, now he's gonna throw it away to put a Rinnegan in its socket. Right?
Seriously, eye surgery in the Naruto world is the best and most convenient thing ever. Maybe they do this everyday for all kinds of situations! "I heard that lady loves blue eyes. Hey bro, would you mind switching eyes just today? I'll give em back tomorrow".
So we are on star wars now?
I like how Naruto can't even explain the bullshit he is able to do anymore.
It's possible that last boss for Naruto is a gigantic one eye that is Sun maybe? For fucks sake that's not even a surgery. You took it out of the socket and when you put a new thing there it's like it has it's own drivers. It's good to go. Seriously… No time for the recovery...
It's funny how second hokage and first hokage are kind of a fodder now. I deliberately didn't read this topic when the rivalry between Naruto and Sasuke, 1st and Mara was referred as two sons of the 6 paths. Jesus...
Again though this chapter made me sad for all the good things these serious could have...
Situation at hand is maddening. There is Minato with 0.00000000000001 sec combo attack NOW POWERED WITH SENJUTSU AND KYUUBI (not that he has it now, but doesn't need it either since that speed was pre-biju and senjutsu), First Hokage, Second Hokage although being useless damage wise who can teleport others and sacrifice himself, Gai who can compete with Madara (although spent his juice already)... What we get to see is Kakashi, Sakura? What is next Kakashi will have a power up because his two eyes are together? Now it's possible for him to use his father's secret jutsu which needs enormous amount of chakras?
Sakura be useful already just once and go bait yourself. Seriously, just go and die. They say OP is fucking sexist on women but Sakura, who seems to be a top-class ninja who is one of the 4 people that is trying to save the planet, a ninja, is a 'kind girl' because he has feelings for the person who tried to kill him? That's fucking dumb in every aspect.

That was stem-cell, DNA level of a thing. It's ok actually that he can't explaint it but is able to have an overview of things. Still, him being ABLE to do it is ridiculous though.
Actually, Naruto being now capable of these impossible medical feats is pretty funny, considering that's Sakura's supposedly saving grace, her medical jutsu knowledge, apparently beyond Tsunade's level. Yet there she is, totally dwarved at her own field by Naruto, who doesn't even know what he's doing. Literally.
I hope Madara remains a floating torso for the remainder of the fight.
Man, AP is slipping these days… where are all the Light Yagami Gifs/PNGs at after that chapter?
I'm without words! I thought that Naruto couldn't get worse, but than Kishimoto went the Aizen, planned everything, route. And the team 7 nostalgia flashback + interaction made the chapter even worse.
"Sakura you're a kind girl" XD, only Kishi.

That's because Sakura is a woman and we all know how capable they are in Narutoverse.
Speaking of this chapters: PLEASE, just get this pretend-to-write-good-teamwork shit over with quickly, I want the boring final phase already so we can skip to Naruto vs Sasuke and finally end this mess.
Naruto touched Kakashi and his normal eye grew back, Kakashi calls Sakura a kind girl, all is according to keikaku.
…..Is this a fanfiction?
H

To be fair, he is a super god ninja dude. Its not like Tenten is running around performing eye surgery.

What did he do though that makes it so special? He basically goes around taking eyes out of their sockets, then puts them into his own eye sockets. He doesn't perform a jutsu, a ritual, a surgery, nothing. Literally grabs an eye with his fingers, stocks the eye with his fingers. Instant.
I say, Tenten, give it a go? What can she lose in the process? Just sneak on Sasuke, snatch his Rinnegan, and try to put it in.

Literally laughed out loud at this. Everyone should just start stealing and exchanging eyes while they wait for Naruto to deal with Madara.
So Naruto is Jesus and Madara is Aizen.
Wonderful.
I have no idea what is going on in Naruto anymore
I've read this chapter and the last one three times and I only get more confused each time
what the fuck is happening
Remember that time Sasuke wanted Itachi's eye's and Obito had to actually perform surgery to do a trasplant? And Sasuke was legitimately out of commision for a bunch of chapters to heal from the surgery?
Oh, ok: let's snatch away Madara's bells. It's really the best way to introduce the last fight…
-Teamwork my ass. We know Sakura and Kakashi will probably not do much considering how the former is…waste and the latter lost the one ability that made him useful for a remarkably long time.
I think losing the Sharingan is the best thing to happen to Kakashi. Now his chakra reserves won't deplete as quickly and maybe we can see some new jutsu from him. He's supposed to have mastered 1000+ of them, after all.
Bleach is out
http://www.mangapanda.com/bleach/579/3
Holy fuckballs Gremmy, you were the stupidest thing
Jeez….Bleach is way too short....
So Visonary boy turns into a big ass brain and dies.....and then those psycho bitches turn up at the end and vaporize Kenpachi's followers - this should be amusing.
What's funnier than gremmy being just a brain is that Kubo thinks that this is somehow deep.
What's with the chapter's name? sasuke's rinnegan..
"my body can't handle your power! I'm dyyyyyyiing!"
"Only, my body was a figment of my imagination too, I'm litteraly just a brain, so my bodys state is irrelevant"
…
"Ummmmmm, I used up too much imagination! I'M DYIIIING!"
Is Kubo even trying anymore? Feels like he's just going with ideas his interns come up with.
so this chapter was full of whaaaa. the curse mark was never mentioned before. obitos redemption is fueled by new additions to the plot. hopefully we get a 2 ms obito now <3

Same here. Gave me a good laugh, Lee.
Kishi sure doesn't give any fucks whatsoever anymore. Madara being the big evil who's behind everything but is actually just misunderstood because Uchiha love cancer. Naruto having literal Jesus powers, making eyes randomly appear out of nowhere. Explanation? "that's because, well, fuck it, I'm awesome lolz" Sakura has gone from being a lovestruck Sasuke fangirl to being a kind Sasuke fangirl (attagirl!). Sasuke is just there, his past crimes forgotten. And now they're going to do some teamwork to defeat the big bad, who, according to this chapter, should obliterate all of them in a matter of seconds due to his new powers.
Typical Naruto chapter.
So, his body was part of his imagination. . .
Then. . .why the FUCK was using TWO bodies a POWER UP if both bodies are part of this. . .brain thingie's (¿?¿?¿?) imagination and not "two brains = imagination two fold", since, in fact, it was all done by a single brain????
I need to go to the doctor. This week NaruBlergh combo was TOO MUCH for my brain.
I'm saddened that Gremmy never got to use Vollständig
Kenpachi fighting a brain with angel wings and a halo, I would've lost my shit
so Naruto heals people now, i guess Sage of the Six Paths Chakra give u the Heal skill. so Madara and Sasuke can also use Heal. also hilarious how Obito says he could do all the shit he did with the help of only half a Rinnegan, even though he never even used it. Kakashi says Sakura is kind but means she is stupid

@Fire Fist:
Man, AP is slipping these days… where are all the Light Yagami Gifs/PNGs at after that chapter?
Making Sakura a useless bitch right until the very end….
man, bleach was boring
I did get a good chuckle out because of the brain in a jar, but other than that this is one of the notorious "nothing fucking happened" chapters of bleach
man, I couldn't bring less stuff into 20 pages even if I tried, how the fuck does he do it
no seriously, what is Kubo even thinking when he's doing chapters like these, bad is one thing but this fucking boring?
So Madara basically is Aizen. The chapter was crap btw.
