Bleach discussion - 20th anniversary announcement

[Lorde]

Me thinks Kenpachi is the largest, hardest badass in Bleach.

And Yachiru is a crouching tiger, hidden badass!

Wait till she fights seriously in the canon material.

I don't get Kenpachi's appeal to be quite honest. He's obviously strong, but he's become very predictable since he uses the same fighting style over and over again. I've always been interested in Yachiru's true power, but I have a feeling that she'll never use her Zanpakuto.

Same here. I actually like him better when he just runs around not being able to find anybody since he can't sense reiatsu. Yachiru I'm curious to know her power, since she obviously became vice captain somehow, but I really can't picture her fighting.

 

[Banana Knight Arthur]

Also, I'd like to finally ascentain Nanao Ise's Shikai.

And to top it all off, to see her battle alongside Lisa Yadomaru, to highlight their parallels.

Maybe an omake where Kyoraku gets them drunk?

Hmph. That kind of reminds me of a certain Moss-Headed swordsman I know.

Anyway, I'm just going to say and ask a few things:

1. Does Ichigo still have his Hollowfication powers?
2. Is Aizen going to come back soon? We still haven't seen his Bankai or the Bankais of over half of the other Captains (counting the Vizards taking their jobs back and Leiutenents that we want to learn Bankai).
3. Who's going to be this adventure's big boss. Wouldn't be surprised if they made it Aizen again. That guy probably already has an escape plan (It would be weird if it was both him and Tsukishima working together).
4. If they do become the big bads, Tsukishima can cut Yamamoto to find out where the Oken is and we can all see what the Soul King's Realm and 0 company look like.
5. It would be some twist if it turns out that Ichigo's Dad was the former captain of 0 company.

1) unknown at the moment

4) Not likely

The major problem with your ideas is that Aizen doesn't have his Zanpaktou anymore so his threat level has been greatly reduced. Sure he has insane Kido powers but that isn't going to help without a sword. We also don't know what other effects Urahara's kido had on Aizen besides restraining him. Also there are probably multiple fail safe Kidos put on Aizen as SS does not want him loose on the world.

He does not have ANY Zanpakuto anymore…

Kyouka Suigetsu disowned him and evaporated/disappeared somehow if I remember correctly….

 

[Lorde]

Has it been confirmed that Kyoka Suigetsu is gone for good? I want to believe that it is, but this is Sosuke Aizen's Zanpakuto we're dealing with. You can never been too cautious (I'll die if its disintegration was actually Aizen using bankai and the entire Fullbringer arc was its illusion).

Wait what? Dude you just repeated what I said. lol

Also Kira I would laugh so hard if Kubo trolled us like that. But I doubt that happened.

This page and the one before.

Ichigo was a dimension above Aizen so his Kyoya Suigetsu couldn't effect him. Plus I'm sure Urahara hit the right Aizen with his Kido so he couldn't just pull an illusion like he did with Hinamori.

 

[The Great Butler]

I would pay for this.

 

[lolipiece]

And on that day, Lolipiece cried a single tear.

That tear was a tear of joy.

 

[miles0624]

two bucks says that either Ichigo is in line to become the next soul king and learns some kido, or he becomes the captain of the royal guard and still learns some kido by the end of the Arc.

 

[Lorde]

So Bleach is entering its final arc? That's interesting. I'm not really in a hurry for the series to end, but I do want to see what the final arc is about; I'm positive that the Royal Guard and the Spirit King will be involved, but I'm not sure about the other details. I wonder if Kubo still plans on giving Isshin more exposition in the new arc.

 

[TsukiMirage]

One last arc to cover the final four years? Don't like those odds. Still, I liked most of what he did with the Fullbringers, so maybe he'll surprise me. Plus that ice palace sounds interesting.

I'm kinda sad to hear about the last arc but that means Kubo can move on to another manga.

Also he needs to tie up all the characters so it might take longer than 5 years considering the huge cast and there are about 45 chapters a year.

Edit: Looks like the "chapter" is out.

 

[Lorde]

I think Mayuri looks even more ridiculous than before, if that's even possible. Still, I'm glad that Kubo plans to answer all the questions that we have. I expect the last arc to be the best arc of the entire series.

Hooray, hooray, finally this is happening.

Lord help me, please. I love Toshirou, but now he will be unbeatable hax, if his Bankai is 'mastered', knowing how the readers and editor love him so much.

11番隊長 ケンパチ 隊長になったころの話しをどこかで書きたいですね
Kubo wants to write about when Kenpachi became a captain.

That should be interesting to say the least.

12 マユリ マユリの変化は髪型
Mayuri changed his hairstyle.

Boring and predictable.

Love me some Rukia *thumbs up*

Wow, this is going to shock everyone...

アランカルが評した真血の意味
The meaning of “真血” that the Arrancars commented on(?) (真血 lit. ‘true blood’)

True blood? Vampire, uber-pure Arrancar/hollows?

Or a new species of evil.

パパと石田パパの因縁深き関係は
The deep bond between Isshin and Ryuuken.

We've known this, but shall be expanded huh?

うきたけが見紛うほど酷似するイチゴとカイエンの容姿ー ふたりは？

Kaien Resurrected/became Ichigo surely….

そのものに従うことを忌み嫌った愛染 そのものの存在をしりぞくすることにした裏腹

The Reiou must be non-living/an inanimate thing, for them to act like that about it.

そのもの 霊王
The Spirit King itself

零番隊とは
The 0 Division

Both things are heavily related, I'm guessing it is a machine/shinigami hybrid. Yay, Hikifune, so whatever Hiyori's interim mama/old captain was called.

The relationship between Urahara and Yoruichi.
