    *Deep, drawn out siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh...*


    ...



    Oh well. Another chapter with a bunch of nothing, and what I feared has happened. I see that nothing has changed, again. Again, Ichigo reacts like a scared, anxious child to Uryuu's supposed betrayal. His calm, mature demeanor? Gone. And I knew this would happen. I had hoped that we would return to the Soul Society arc type of confidence and didn't let everything shock him or make him act like an anxious teen emo.


    I knew it would happen, though. Since the Soul Society arc, Ichigo's behavior has alternated between depressed emo and overly arrogant (not confident) dude. I knew it would happen again, and I predicted it would be when he found out about Uryuu. I had hopes that he would remain calm and collected, but lol.. what did I expect from Kubo..

    Completely agree with everything. Bleach just keeps going around in circles. This arc is just a slightly different version of Aizen/xcution.

    What a pointless Chapter... I mean NOTHING of worth happened at all... This arc needs to pick the fuck up and fast.

    Soooo just more hype about Sternritter vs. Shinigami. Predictable Uryu outcome.

    Lol I thought Orihimie's barrier was part of Ichigo's new skills. Ichigo should have just been left to dodge/tank the arrows. I mean come on, some worthless Sternritter is allowed to push his face through 10 buildings, but against an AoE attack that looks like it even hit the building Uryu was on, he needs a shield?

    Let's be honest does anyone actually think Uryu's betrayal will last? He has his own motivations for doing it and will turn around just like Sasuke did in Naruto.

    That's what makes this such a boring and forced chapter. We all know he's gonna come back in the end, wtf is the point of this?

    True true! We can't have an event as huge as two of the most useless characters in the whole show go unnoticed!

    I mean... If Orihime's not there, who else is going to mindlessly shout Kurosaki kun and except that to fix things? Which oddly, it usually seems to do...

    Money says Urahara shows up next chapter conveniently behind Chad and Orihime and he uses some Reiatsu science to explain how Ichigo can go stop them.

    The sad thing is that he would need a power up to make a difference now. Considering he got beaten by crappy mask Ichigo.

    Given how long it takes for anything to happen in Bleach, the current arc has been going on since February of 2012, I'd say we have a month or so before he shows up.

    Just out of curiosity, why do people keep expecting Grimmjow? I know the sternritter had Harribel captured way back when, but why would Grimmjow randomly appear and what kind of difference could he make apart from comic relief?

    He was shown ages ago that he was in HM with urahara and co. It seems he had something to do with helping urahara get bankai back to the shinigami's who had it stolen.

    I think its just a hype/fan thing. I honestly don't know nor really care (never really liked the character) if he shows up.

    Did you ever wonder where Urahara got the Hollow DNA to put in his AIDS pills he have to the Shinigami?

    It's not a hype thing.

    Basically, we've even heard whoever saved Urahara speak, and their speech pattern is way too similar to Grimmjow's to dismiss it.

    Not just that, but after getting obliterated by Ichigo and Nnoitra, wouldn't you think Grimmjow would train?

    It's definitely him, and since Orihime and the Hueco Muendo group are there now, he's not far behind.

    Even if Grimmjow trained to Stark-level (which is pushing it), that shouldn't put a dent in Sternritter. Maybe he could kill fucked up ones like the Jail but fully powered ones? He better be powerless.

    Because Grimmjow was defeated by the weakest possible version of Ichigo in that arc. Ulqiuorra took him to super hollow form, which is impressive enough, but just by shonen standards, no person from that arc is able to stand up to anyone in this one due to power scaling.

    My guess is that Grimmjow is prob as strong or close to Ichigo atm it wouldn't suprise me if he showed up with a stronger version of his release. I mean he did kill that sternritter that was beat to near death with his Lacerate or whatever it was called.
