Bleach has been one hell of a roller coaster ride for all of us. First Ichigo looses his powers, then he gains really weird powers, then he looses them, then he gets his shinigami powers back, and finally Rukia gets a haircut -- the excitement never ends! Now that Ichigo is back in black, as AC/DC would say, how much ass will he kick? Let’s find out.
THE GOOD
Yes, this chapter rocked my world. Not just because Ichigo is now more powerful than he ever was before, or because we got to see all of our favorite character’s again, but because Rukia made fun of Ichigo for crying a few minutes before she stabbed him. Seriously Ichigo you might be Chuck Norris’s and Mr. T’s love child right now, but a few seconds ago you were babbling like a little girl complaining about how your father stabbed you. Rukia was right, you deserved to be kicked in the head.
However I can’t blame him, I would have been crying too, especially after the other captains showed up. I don’t know what happened, but they all look bad ass right now. Is it just me, or did Ikkaku get a promotion to lieutenant? Because if he did that would be amazing. Hell, he should just swallow his pride and become a captain, we all know he has the best bankai after all. The best part is that they all gave Ichigo some of their reiatsu, so Ichigo is a little bit of everyone now.
This is really apparent right now, for even a practice swing produces a giant getsuga tensho like wave. Ginjo trembles in fear after seeing this, and rightfully so. Ichigo then puts all his energy into a real getsuga tensho, I look forward to seeing a headless Ginjo in the next chapter.
THE BAD
I really enjoyed this chapter, but it was hard to tell what exactly was going on in some parts of the manga. Especially if a getsuga tensho is involved.
THE VERDICT 4/5
The enemies seem to really be outclassed right now, however, they still have all of Ichigo’s friends on their team, which I’m sure will do whatever they can to save Tsukishima. Will this battle continue on from this point, or will the bad guys escape to fight another day?
I pretty sure Tsukishima ran for the hills, after seeing Ichigo's powers (since he wasn't even in the chapter)
Why is Ichigo using Getsuga Tensho on Ginjo? Ginjo is standing in front of the house where Ichigo's Friends and Family are in
@MrASSH0LE:
Same here (also Naruto for me)
Kenpachi being there is scary. With Ichigo powered up again. He better defeat Ginjo and RUN.
Oh yeah, Rukia kind of look like a boy with that hair cut
Silly question, but what do you mean he abondoned his story for a DBZ clone?
This chapter and the one before it have me totally stoked about Bleach again. I'm still not sure about Rukia's new haircut, but I guess all the major characters look a little different now to let you know this is after a time skip.
It's kind of silly yet kind of makes sense that Ichigo's powers never really left him and he just needed a jolt of reiatsu in his system. I'm just wondering exactly how powerful he is now. It's clear his powers have developed since we last saw him in his shikai form, but is he as powerful in bankai as he was against Aizen? Because he was absurdly powerful back then.
Early Early chapter of bleach is about ichigo having both shinigami life and a school life, with fights in between
However it gradually turned into "Power-Up Spam" that happens in most shonen, and since the shonen everybody knows is DBZ.....
i cant wait to see everybody else in soul socity. i hope theres a new captainl
kinda glad and sad about this chapter.
Seriously wtf is going on?
I see rukia coming, but what's with everyone else? It's like they mixed up the pages and put the character poll vote page in the middle.
And they still haven't explained wtf these fullbringer duders are after.
It's like kubo got bored of this arc and wants to erase it all with a getsuga.
wtf...........
I still don't get how by giving Ichigo a bit of their powers they managed to unlock his. Whatever, Bleach has way too many plotholes and discrepancies for me to worry about. Still an awesome chapter. Can't wait to see Zangetsu again and Ichigo's bankai
