Wow, that was like a new level of awful for both mangas. Please put on my grave "Stupid retcons of an idiotic retcon killed him".
Naruto and Bleach IV- Sexy time
-
-
wtf?
Bleach: I saw no reason to dedicate another chapter to this "fight"….I mean, what did we even see?
Grimmy falls to the ground defeated, monologues about how he really wasn't here blah blah metaphysical speech blah blah.....then just fades. The brain in the jar immediately made me think of Aaroniero, which is a good thing....right? But why a brain in a jar??? Is it his "imagination" or actually his brain...? Sorry, it just caught me off guard.
Yachiru's missing....hmm, could make for some interesting drama. But really, the Quincy girls we saw way back (part of Bambietta's posse, right?) are gonna attack Kenpachi? Ladies, please, don't embarrass yourself. The dude just beat a kid with the broken power of imagination….you can't top that.
slow pacing though
Naruto: Hear that? That's the sound of my hair being ripped out.
Kishimoto seriously plays the "just as I planned" card with Madara, of all people. Congrats, now my opinion of him has soured even further.
Sakura manages to escape, and Team 7 officially joins up again. We're really hammering in the whole "Naruto = Jesus" metaphor, aren't we, Kishi? Just restoring Kakashi's vision so easily? Kakashi takes a moment to reflect on how his students have changed, what with their prospective goals and whatnot. I guess it's (kinda) a heartfelt? moment, but really out of place. And it just makes me miss Naruto Part I.
But seriously, Madara being Aizen-like was very frustrating.
-
urg, so naruto is jesus and sakura still has no purpose except to have a boner for sasuke
-
Although we are led to see those girls as fodder since they walk in group, there is no real reason to think they are weaker than the other sternritter. So in fact Kenpachi would be fighting against 4 SR at once and maybe Bambietta as well if she is alive. But I doubt will be Kenpachi fighting them, this could be a good chance to throw a lot of underused characters in the fray (if we have to take useless fighting, at least I hope Kubo uses the chance to develop forgotten characters instead of wank the same as always)

Considering that he already killed three Stern Ritters off-screen in the first invasion and Kubo went out of his way to remove Yachiru and Isane from the battle (awww…)....sigh yeah, I smell more wank.
I mean, Kubo still has to milk his new Shikai for its worth.
-
Get ready for another month or two of kenpachi being a smug douchebag swinging his sword in the most bland way possible and kobo trying to be all phylosophical.
Naruto was just garbage. Madara is Aizen where everything went according as planned from the very beginning and jesuto is just bad overall. Way to go kishimoto taking out all sense of danger, by making the main character into a god essentially.

Naruto: Aw, that's so cute seeing Kakashi remember these guys when they were kids.
Bleach: I have a bad habit of trying to find the good thing in garbage, and you know what's good about this chapter? Yachiru disappearing is actually something interesting and worth caring about. Plus, the four sternritters, whether they are a match for Kenpachi or not, could do a number of things. They could have Yachiru hostage, or they could just be a distraction from her finding him. The story could go anywhere now! Maybe we'll forget about that floating brain? Who knows. I can't imagine it!

"Jesus Naruto" is the biggest shit I have ever seen… God so damn awful... Everytime I think it can't get worse Kishi pulls new shit out of his crack head
-
Naruto is utter bullshit this week. Yeah. "Just as planned" Madaraizen strikes again. No shit. Also, that Team 7 cheesypuff crap at then end, So overused and childish. Damn you Kishi, don't drag this anymore.
-
Oh Gremmy. You were such a stupid stupid character to the end.
Also, going to back to Naruto, yeah I love how Naruto's new Jesus powers make Sakura's one remaining contribution totally irrelevant.
-

Well but I bet Naruto could give her Tsunade like boobs with his new powers… So it would make her relevant again
(Out before sexism)

Bleach: The art of spending 8 chapters, 2 months, on a terrible battle against a brain!
And some people say that One Piece is slow.
-
I just..I can't…
I understand that Naruto is an eastern piece of literature, and therefore I accept that their socital views of men and women are different then what we in the west have. I also understand that Naruto is a manga centered for young boys and teens. But holy...shit Kishimoto..
Holy, fucking shit.
I don't know if I am furious or simply impressed that you have created the most useless, pathetic, hated, sexist character I have ever seen in manga, literature, television, film, bars. Anything. Sakura Haruno is a stain on humanity, on art, on everything that people have fought for in terms of equality and representation.
-
Naruto: "Just as planned", Naruto is still Jesus, Sakura's only ability is now hilariously useless
Bleach: Nothing, absolutely nothing
-
Gremmy had a brain? :ninja:
-
Kubo has a brain?:ninja:
It doesn't look like it. xD
-
Bleach: Only in this manga you can have a broken ability, and lose in such a stupid way. Thank god this mind numbing fight is over. Is Ichigo still traveling on notsnakeway?
Naruto: The flashback was cheesy and unnecessary. Useless Sakura is useless. Banzai!!! Madaraizen!!! Banzai!!!! Maybe Madaraizen will transform into a butterfly once he takes back his left Rinnegan.
-
I've been trying to like Sakura for the longest time, through all the hate she gets, but that was just too much. Sorry girl, but you are useless.
I almost feel bad for her. What is she even supposed to do in their so-called "teamwork"? Her one and only saving grace has been stolen by Naruto who doesn't even know what the hell he is doing.
Its at times like these that I remember why I still love the female characters in One Piece, despite them becoming increasingly passive and targets for fan-service. At least they have memorable personalities and unique powers and even DO things like FIGHT, being ENTERTAINING and USEFUL.And for some reason I found Kakashi looking from student to student hilarious. Like he is looking at them one by one and thinking just how bad everything has gotten and wanting to leave before he is dragged into the clichés as well.
As for Bleach, I'm speechless. Thank god its over, Gremmy. At least the missing Yachiru thing is mildly interesting.

What does that make Karin then?
-
Naruto has reached Metal Gear Solid levels of bullshit.
Amazing.
-
^
Hey come on, MGS is still by far superior in every way. Yes even the badshit insane story kojima has created over the years is very well written compared to naruto. -
Metal Gear Solid 4.
I'll say just that.
-
MGS 4 Perfectly tied up everything that needed to be tied up. So what's the problem?^^
-
Metal Gear Solid 4. I'll say just that.
What?! Didn't that game prefectly tied up everything and concluded the main plot and the sub-plots ?! Not sure what makes you compare that to Naruto's pathetic piece of writing .
-
MGS2 had one of the best videogame plots of all time.
Too bad MGS4 ruined it.
-
^
Now you are just trolling. xD -
which MGS was the one with "the boss" that blond woman who was some sort of mentor figure for snake
That MGS was the only one I ever played, don't really remember most of the plot, there was some doomsday spider mecha weapon I think? But I still remember the story arc and meaning of this boss character, it was genuinely heartwearming and tragic, especially that last battle
I also remember incredibly old sniper, ghost man and BEEEEEES -
It was Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, still in my opinion the best in the entire series.^^
-
MGS 3 had the best plot of the games when judged on their own.
-
^
Now you are just trolling. xDI like to believe the VR Theory was true, or at least, intended.
Granted, most of that site could be making things up and speaking nonsense, but I just gotta love the explanations behind some of the more surreal elements. It makes me appreciate MGS2 more.
-
Gremmy has to be the worst villain in all of Bleach. Never have I seen a villain so stupid and boring in this manga. Absolutely horrible fight from beginning to end.
-
http://readms.com/r/naruto/675/2361/22
Wow they actually posted something decent.
-
Gremmy is finally gone, but another boring fight awaits.
Argh.
-
"Fuck fuck fuck, I have barely any content in this chapter! What do I name it?
…There. "THE UNDEAD +n". Wheres my check?"
You're slipping Kubo. I was expecting something like I IMAGINE I IS EXISTING
-
At first I thought Gremmy transported Kenpachi's brain out of his head and put in a jar and I was like, "Finally! You're thinking!"
But no…Gremmy was the brain in the jar. Just goes to show you, just because you have a brain, or you are a brain, doesn't mean you know how to use it...or yourself. Idiot.
So when do you all think Naruto will start raising the dead? Serious question because I'm taking bets on when Neji is going to be revived. I'm thinking after the fight Naruto will just "try something new" touch Neji's body and voila! And of course his cursed seal will be gone because why not?
-
@The:
"Fuck fuck fuck, I have barely any content in this chapter! What do I name it?

Why Me Sad?
But seriously is there a worse Bleach Villain than Gremmy? Because I can't think of one. Maybe he just pissed me off to much.
-
Gremmy sucks, but no way is he the worst, he only poisoned the series with his presence for five or six chapters, Aizen on the other hand…he was actually the guy with the good imagination power, after all, he was able to make people see whatever the fuck he wanted with zero difficulty
-

God and I know people who enjoyed him and his fight.
I wonder if Kubo added any of Gremmy's quotes to his glass table. -
I'll say it again: this is why you don't give your characters uber powers. Like I think there was some kind of limit to Gremmy's power, when he was dealing with Yachiru and forgot to deal with Kenpachi….no wait, never mind. But you know, let's just keep imagination to meteors and clones! Like we're playing Final Fantasy or something.
What I mean is, there were virtually limitless ways for Gremmy to...not even kill, but to stun or wound or damage, whatever.....and he gets beaten like it ain't no thing. Kubo throwing in metaphysical philosophy really didn't help matters. In the end, he suffered to the Aizen Effect. And it just makes me wonder why no Quincy has sticken to "gathers reishi, forms weapons" since...Kirge?
Controlling fear, making explosions, getting stronger based on cheers, replicating the big bad, imagination….I mean, is Uryu's attack style so outdated?
-
gremmy should have just imagined having Kyōka Suigetsu, instant win
Might as well kill Bach and take his throne, nothing could stop that fucking ability, except touching the hilt of the sword before release, which is so difficult and specific It might not be a weakness at all, unless Kubo would come up with some reiatsu density bullshit, I think that was even mentioned in the Kenpachi novel that Ken would have been able to withstand it. Doesn't matter anyway, because absolutely nobody was able to stand up to it anyway in the series. It was so goddamn good there was never a need for Aizen to go bankai -
If I recall correctly Aizen never even used bis Shikai ability on Ichigo which would have ended the match quickly. Was there any reason for this or was it just (to borrow a term from Meta) the Aizen Effect?
-
If I were to guess, then his Shikai is a pain to release, instead of just "command and done" like every other. But that would make too much sense, and we already saw…it...
Damn we are under Aizen's illusion. -
Incoming neji resurrection
-
Gremmy Should have just imagined thousands of corgis.
-

But you know, let's just keep imagination to meteors and clones! Like we're playing Final Fantasy or something.
Kubo really should have just given Gremmy powers based on what his opponent thinks (and thus utilizing the power of suggestion) rather than his broken "unlimited imagination power" ability. The result would have been the same, but at least it would make it seem like Gremmy wasn't a super all powerful being that was inhibited only by his own lack of imagination.
Heck, if Kubo REALLY wanted to be pretentiously deep but at the same time make this lack of imagination "make sense", how about a lame ass flashback of Gremmy being some brain dead kid that played too much video games or something. At least then Kubo would be pretentiously preachy, profound, and at the same time EXPLAIN why Gremmy was such an unimaginative doofus. But nope, BRAIN IN THE JAR!
-
Naruto-Jesus transformation is complete.
He walks on water.
He revived the dead.
He made the blind to see.Ugggh -_- and freaking Sasuke, he's still the guy you want to kick in the crotch.
-
Uhh…Was it stated before that Rin was the 3 tails holder? I feel like I should have remembered that...Or not...This manga is garbage.
Bleach was so completely stupid. Brain a jar again? sigh
-
Controlling fear, making explosions, getting stronger based on cheers, replicating the big bad, imagination….I mean, is Uryu's attack style so outdated?
Yeah, the thing bothering me the most with the sternritters is how the group abilities lack anything in common. Since Kirge we don't see a quincy that looks like a quincy, because their abilities range from anything to anything to the point you can't even see what it the common root there. It feels like just a bunch of weird people with powers instead of a clan.
