Urahara - 14,669
Aizen - 13,888
Rukia - 9,619 with Uquiorra above by a few points.

I just realized that Ginjo got sent back to SS after dying despite having a Bankai, meaning that either such a feat is not necessarily an indicator of spiritual power or Kubo retconned that for the Hell arc or I have severely misunderstood Ginjo's powers.

Because autism. (Bount Arc is fine)

Isane post!

Uh guys, Kubo was more involved in the Hell movie than fans thought.
>Message from Tite Kubo
When I was first offered a movie set in hell, I thought, «Wait, haven't we done this in anime already?»
So I was a little surprised. But I learned that this film would portray hell in a completely new way — in a way that has never been shown in either anime or manga. And that excited me.

At the same time, I felt a strong sense of responsibility. If this is to be the first true depiction of hell in the universe «BLEACH», then it will need to be properly integrated into the BLEACH world. I worked with the film team on the design of the setting, chains and masks of the sinners and the concept of the plot. I even gave feedback on the characters' dialogue to make sure it matched their personalities. It was the most involved I've ever done in a BLEACH movie.

The plot involves characters from the manga's main storyline, such as the Vizards, and is closely related to Ichigo's inner world. In some ways, this film acts as the missing piece of the manga world. Here you will see a version of Ichigo's transformation that I did not show in the manga.

Work on this film made me realize how much Ichigo — has grown, especially in how he reacts when something important is taken away from him. His actions, expressions and thoughts are now completely different. He really matured. Watching how this unfolds, I thought: «Wow, Ichigo really grew up ». I think the audience will feel the same way.

This film, which was born thanks to the joint efforts of all participants, turned out to be something really worth watching. I hope you all enjoy this view of the unknown — in the version of BLEACH hell.

>>280024435
He wrote a full screenplay for them but when he actually saw the end result he realized they'd thrown out most of it and only a few basic elements of his worldbuilding had made it in

>>279996477
>Giselle wearing pants
no wonder he looks to disappointed

>>280024435
>such as the Vizards,
Oh HELL no
>>280024668
That's for the best. Shoving in fodder like vizards would've just overcrowded and fucked up the film.

Dead thread. Posting random Unmasked databook facts. All written by Kubo himself btw.

>Both Yammy's physical strength and Reiryoku increase tenfold when he enters Resurreccion.
>His subsequent transformation is activated when Yammy becomes 10x angrier. His power increases in proportion with his increase in size. Even from this point on, he can still get angrier, grow even larger and therefore become more powerful.
>As implied in 13 BLADEs, Gin's Bankai can indeed grow as long as he told Ichigo and at the speed he claimed, although it doesn't always do this. This is because these properties exist only as decoys to hide Kamishini no Yari's true abilities.
>Gin's Buto technique is designed to make full use of KnY's apparent speed. Buto Renjin has double the speed and attack power of Buto. Few attacks can match Buto Renjin's attack power (it literally says the attack power is "incomparable" but that sounds like BS to me).

>>279996477
>Gigi's harem
i wonder what's in store for them

>Aizen is an "envoy" who was sent to complete the "sublime purpose" of taking the Spirit King's place and creating a new world. As such, the consciousness of becoming a divine being was born within him.

>Aizen's Millon Escudo (the barrier he put behind his neck) is, as the name implies, made up of 1 million El Escudo barriers (remember that Shunsui failed to completely break just one El Escudo, so even if Ichigo was wearing his Hollow mask he wasn't going to get through this.).

>Fragor is actually a bullet made of of compressed Reishi, not Aizen's spirit energy as the wiki claims.

>Aizen's Final Fusion is the form of a God, and is not at all related to Shinigami and Hollows.

>Ichigo is connected to the severed chain of Tensa Zangetsu with his Reiatsu. That's why the Hollow could summon the blade to his hand. This is simply a power that Ichigo has, it is not a technique.

>Ulquiorra is implied to be the only Espada who can possibly obtain a second release.

>Just like how Ulquiorra's Resurreccion, Murciélago, transforms him into something resembling his original Hollow form (same with all Resurreccion forms), Segunda Etapa transforms him into the original form of his species. Ulquiorra subconsciously understood this, which is why he never showed it to Aizen despite being so loyal. This form is also the origin of Ulquiorra's "nihilism".

>>280025915
Not as consistent though.

Does anyone have a link to the video where dangai ichigo has earbuds in while aizen talks in the background?

Can someone tell the director of tybw the color vomit looks terrible for a bleak show like Bleach

>>280026267
It has much better fights as this is probably the worse one of that filler.

>>280026232
It was jarring initially. But it added a sense of danger that I enjoyed. Also visually enforced the feeling of the Soul Society being totally usurped

Reminder that Orihime didn't once address her friends dead in hell but selfishly cared more about Ichigo going back there.

The most popular new character of TYBW, Yhwach, has a grand total of...
>519 favorites

Although I get that many of these favorites simply are legacy likes from way back when the old anime was running, and it's pointless to use as a metric to see how well TYBW is doing, it's still an interesting snapshot of what characters people liked in Bleach overall ever since its early days.

>>279994988 (OP)
why

>>279994988 (OP)
why

>>280027131
For such a boring hero Ichigo sure is popular, Why is that? Especially when you compare him to more driven JUMP heroes of his day like Naruto and Luffy also the most popular in their series or laid back heroes like Gintoki,actually scratch that what I mean to say is Ichigo is a reactionary hero, he doesn't do anything unless the plot makes him do it where are Luffy and Naruto are proactive heroes they're always doing shit.

>>280027131
awful list

breached >>279995200

>>280027286
Ichigo isn't a generic dumb genki retard like Rufi and Naruto which made him stand out at the time, in the first half of the manga he was kind of a delinquent with attitude which made a lot of people like him.

>>280027286
It's a battle shounen. The protagonist is expected to be the highlight of the story. And Bleach is very Ichigo-centric, contrary to what some people claim. He has 3x the panel time of the second most featured character (Rukia) and the majority of other character's panel time also strongly revolves around Ichigo, like Orihime.
>>280027320
I'd say it's not that bad. Mostly reflects other polls, even Jap ones.

>>280027286
he's a master at aura farming

I remember people complaining throughout the fake karakura town arc that they missed Ichigo and how alot of people didn't bother reading can't fear your own world because Ichigo and his companions weren't involved in that story through Ichigo's name does get mentioned a few times such as the bad guy blasting the shinigami for being friends with someone they're supposed to kill or at least enslave and the arrancar girl defending him to the point the quincy girl asks the other arrancar if she's his girlfriend or something

>>280027543
I realized that I was in the minority around Fake Karakura. Ichigo was never my favorite character. I just enjoyed the entire Bleach verse as a whole. When I read Bleach, Ichigo was a part of the world to me, not the center of it.

>>280027718
Same. It really baffles me when people look at Ichigo that way. He always felt more like a stand-in for me, a big cog that gets the whole thing going rather being the thing itself. Although, with how Kubo portrayed him at times, I can understand why people learn more towards the latter view.

Let's talk about Ichigo so more, this is very important.

>>280026664
Ichigo is himself again with that look. That is the 5 Ambulance look. That cocky ready to brawl look.

>>280027131
>Isane nowhere to be found

>>280027131
Ulquiorra is pretty impressive as top 5 but understandable. However, what the fuck are Rangiku and Kon doing in the top 20?

>>280029841
>Rangiku
cause boobs and molesting Hitsugaya, but mostly boobs

>>280029880
Kon has boobs now?

Is Soul Society peak Bleach?

>>280027286
It was his attitude

>>280030008
Yes, he just has to move his stuffing a bit to the right spot.

>>280030017
it had Ichigo's coolest outfit.

>>280027286
Ichigo is pretty much the last in line of delinquent tough guy with a heart of gold protagonists, a trope that was popular in the 90s. When you think about shounen protagonists from 2010 onwards and then go back and watch Bleach, Ichigo feels much cooler in comparison.

>>280030017
Yes.
>Soul Society, Arrancar, Substitute Shinigami, Lost Agent, TYBW
is the objective order.

>>280030673
Shouldn't Arrancar be split into Arrancar Invasion, Hueco Mundo and FKT? Thought that was the accepted division in the fandom.

>>280030783
That's just how the fandom decided to split it. The manga itself treats it as one arc following Aizen's betrayal in 179 to Ichigo saying goodbye to Rukia in 423.

>>280030673
You forgot Turn back the pendulum mini arc.
Soul Society, Turn back the pendulum,Substitute Shinigami, TYBW, Arrancar, Lost agent
The Arrancar arc felt like it would never end, I don't like many of the arrancar characters, and I dislike the Hueco Mundo scenarios (there were most of the time white backgrounds), I was going to put it the last one but, despite the Lost agent had interesting elements and I liked some characters more than the ones in the Arrancar arc, it always felt like it wasn't Bleach, like a different series.

>>280027286
Ichigo is the first shonen hero I actually liked out of those three I liked. Naruto design is so fucking awful and he’s annoying while Luffy is a fucking retard despite me loving One Piece the best. They feel like icons for little children. So god damn annoying and stupid.

>>280027131
It’s a perfect metric considering MAL is more casual bound and tons of users watched TYBW cour 1 on there.

>>280033265
With the way One Piece is going I can honestly Bleach taking the top spot of the big 3, at least for me. Which is crazy to say.

>>280033332
Anything long term is bound to get worse, nothing can stay great forever.

>>279995200
>merely pretending

>>280027131
>The most popular new character of TYBW, Yhwach, has a grand total of 519 favorites.
What’s the issue with this? You think a character from the worst arc of Bleach is as good as aizen or something?

>>280027543
I said the same thing back then when I was young. I would be like “Where’s Ichigo?” Don’t get me wrong I loved the fights with the other cast but I got extremely impatient near the end. When filler arcs hit I would get kind of pissed when Ichigo didn’t appear in an episode.

For me, sex with Sarugaki Hiyori

>>280027543
At first, FKT seemed like one of those arcs that would be a slog and just go on forever, but it actually went along pretty swiftly and smoothly. I only really disliked the Barragan fight and that was mostly because I couldn't stand that Shinigami fat fuck.

>>280034478
Soi Fon’s struggle and bankai reveal saved that fight.

Did Aizen’s plan take into account that Ichigo could’ve been born a masked narcissistic psychopath from all those mixed up genes. All Ichigo’s kindness was just a facade; he could’ve unintentionally released a limitless potential monster like himself but worse.

>>280033416
>the worst arc of Bleach
Apparently lots of people consider it the best

>>280035071
Aizen was winging it and pretended it's all according to his keikaku to look smart.

>>280033416
Nah, but the final big bad that's been hyped up and retco-I mean hidden in plain sight ever since the early chapters, not being able to beat fucking Kon in a poll is hilarious to me.

>>280035339
As a character, what’s unique about Yhwach compared to Aizen? It’s not about forshadowing but execution.

>>280035488
He has an interesting, morally grey goal that's thematically fitting to Bleach. Aizen's own goal is stereotypical "I wanna be God" villain stuff, it's just wrapped up in his know-it-all suave persona to make it cooler than it really is.

>>280035591
Isn’t his goal the same as Aizen’s?remake the world in his own image and govern it?

>>280035591
>>280035650
Aizen and Ywhach both wanted to reshape the current world cycle because it's horrifically broken. Soul Society wants to keep the status quo but it's a really fucked up place.

Imagine
Imagine naming your daughter after the guy who saved your bitch

>>280035650
Aizen's is less clear, but we know it's less comprehensive than what Yhwach wants. His explicit goal in remerging the worlds to erase death is both surprisingly selfless (people like As Nodt were devoted to him because of this) and selfish (stemming from his own fear of mortality due to his origin).

Underwhelming Masaki bikini

>>280035736
Original Masaki was better Why did Kubo change her hair color? Now it makes no sense where Ichigo got it from. Was it to make her look more like Orihime for that oedipal vibe?

>>280035797
Ichigo’s hair color comes from being a unnatural mixed hybrid I suppose. Orange is also used to warrant caution to prevent danger.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xmIYwPEyMm8&pp=ygUMUnVraWEgc2NyZWFt
Beautiful scream from a beautiful woman.

>>280035797
>Was it to make her look more like Orihime for that oedipal vibe?
Maybe, but that could've been done by simply retconning Masaki an orangette instead of the blonde she appeared as early on. That's because Orihime always had her iconic "burnt orange" hair that was different from both Ichigo's and Masaki's. At least until Kubo turned both her and Masaki into brunettes for reasons that are beyond me. Although the original anime also went too far at times with making her orange color too vivid.

>>280034478
Omaeda is one of the most annoying motherfuckers in Bleach

>>280036082
>At least until Kubo turned both her and Masaki into brunettes for reasons that are beyond me
Huh? Kubo has barely changed her hair in his own colored drawings. If you're referring to the anime, she's still a redhead. Just a bit darker than she used to be. If that's a brunette to you, you should get your eyes checked. Or maybe tell me where you live, since I wanna see the kind of "brunettes" you do when walking down the street.

>>280011931
>Because autism. (Bount Arc is fine)
14 year old me was marathoning Bleach on YouTube nonstop circa 2006. Never picked up a page of the manga. Entered the Bount Arc. Several episodes in, for the first time, I felt my attention span shortening and drowsiness setting in.

Once I learned the Bount Arc was "filler", everything clicked. My brain instinctively knew Kubo (who I know recognize as a hack, but still) - did not write it, and thus it was shit. Dropped the Bount Arc instantly and picked up the manga and my engagement increased 110%.

Bount Arc is a significant lapse in quality coming from the Soul Society Arc. I find it undeniable.

>>280027131
The worst part is that Chad doesn’t show up.

Anyone wish movie 2 was about Renji instead?

>>280036541
Went and checked. He's #23 after Soi Fon and Unohana. Pretty bad for a main character but could've been worse.

>>280036695
I wouldn’t even call Chad a main character as most of his screentime is just standing in the background.

>>280027131
I never understood why do some people love Shinji. His powers are basically an inferior version of Kyouka Suigetsu and all he does after his only cool showing (humiliating Grimmjob in an interrupted fight) is job till the end of time. I guess he has a cool tongue piercing and is a sassy Kansaiben character? I'd compliment his fashion but it's nothing out of the ordinary for Kubo's characters.

>>280025559
>life isn't fair kurosaki kun

>>280036901
He is the face of the Vizards and once upon a time, fans actually had expectations of this group. He gets a proper backstory and quite a bit of panel time as well as development through interacting with others (like Momo, even though that's left to the novels lol).

>>280035071
Aizen is strong, all his experiments are under his control

>>280035650
no he wanted to free his daddy and return the world to how its meant to be

>>280036901
Maybe because he’s a cool character with a good build up to his grimmjow fight?

>>280036901
it's the shit eating grin

>>280035650
most likely different to Yhwach's new world, as Aizen opposes Yhwach

I bet no one expected the Ulquiorria fag of all people to be the one spamming the threads with Bleach hate.

>>280037234
Who? What Bleach hate? I've only seen anons discussing stuff in good faith. Shitposters like Gigi/DBZ faggot are mostly ignored.

sws=sex with Sousuke

>>280037319
He’s the “Please care about bleach!” fag but stopped when anons ignored him. He shifted tactics to being a huge part of starting shipping wars and is obsessed with wanting Bleach to fail all because Uquiorria died.

>>280037387
How do you even figure this shit out? Granted I don't pay much attention myself, but I just post about wanting to fuck Soi Fon.

>>280025118
>>Fragor is actually a bullet made of of compressed Reishi, not Aizen's spirit energy as the wiki claims.
Quincy trait in a hollow form?

>>280037387
I think you need to get off 4chan for a while.

Rukia has been growing on me for some reason even though I haven't watched or read anything Bleach related recently

>>280037900
Because she's the best, obviously.

Bleach went to shit when Ichigo learned to fly. After that it was dudes standing on thin air throwing energy blasts at each other.

>>280038156
When was that introduced again? I forgot.

RUINED

>>280038104
How come Kubo didn’t make these two canon when they have better interactions than the two they ended up with.

>>280038464
Because Orihime has his mom's hair color and japs are kinda oedipal.

>>280038464
Because Rukia loved Renji and Ichigo loved Orihime. You can see the difference in how they act with them in comparison to each other. They're much softer and sentimental instead of bickering like a bunch of idiots. Not to mention actually wanting to spend time with each other.

>>280038510
>Because Orihime has his mom's hair color
But she doesn't? An anon went over this earlier. Rangiku is more similar to her than Orihime.

>>280038755
Yeah and? It’s still an official movie released. The public doesn’t care about canon.

>>280038782
Then the scenes Ichigo and Rukia get mog them. Even Kubo liked them.

>>280038852

lmao even

>280039156
more salt than the atlantic

>>280039156
There's a lot of shit that Orihime does/doesn't do that makes her surprisingly callous when you think about it. The reason this stands out is because we're supposed to believe she's the kindest character in the series, what with how she feels for enemies at times, but it's not consistent.

ok so now it's canon
a second ago it was non-canon but we're talking about it as if it's canon now.

how could i?

>>280039240
I think a simple fix would be to say "Make sure and you and others come back safely" instead.

>>280035797
Masaki's hair in the first anime is different, she looks blonde there. Masaki's hair in the manga was similar to Orihime's, at least in this early colourspread

>>280039523
Shit, they changed even that? Wouldn't have known. What the fuck Pierrot.

>>280036082
Masaki had the same hair color as Orihime from the start of the series >>280039523
In fact, it looks like Kubo changed her hair colour to be different from Orihime's

>>280039650
Her shirt is the same color too.

>>280039523
Pierrot is such trash, how could anyone prefer the anime over the manga is beyond me unless you're a mouth breather retard.

>>280039819
>exciting new announcements
I doubt it, unless they say the anime starts in October, and there be a trailer

>>280039905
>I doubt it, unless they say the anime starts in October, and there be a trailer
Seasonal anime has people forgetting that new episodes use to release weekly.

>>280039905
The anime is not starting until 2026. I wouldn't be surprised if they delay it so the final episode airs in August 2026, just so Kubo can have his 10 year symbolism. And also so there's more time to make the final cour a proper finale of the original series.

>>280039981
>The anime is not starting until 2026.
Why?

>>280040012
I literally told you why. Read properly my two digit IQ friend.

>>280040041
Your reasoning was shit.

>>280039523
her hair is lighter blind kun

>>280040076
Then you just could've just said so instead of acting like an imbecile. There's little chance we're getting a trailer on a panel. Do you even know how studios plan out their cours?

>>280039981
>And also so there's more time to make the final cour a proper finale of the original series
They're just going to make more pointless fights like Ishida vs Renji. They could adapt WDKALY since that one covers a lot of post-war material, but going from intense filled action episodes to exposition clean up episodes would kill the pacing.

>>280040153
>They could adapt WDKALY
I doubt they can do that in a single episode. Perhaps just the important bits, lasting less than 3 minutes. There's also the tie-in to Tokinada from CFYOW we've not received an answer too. Personally, I lean in on them adapting the Hell one shot so the cour ends on a hook for Hell arc, but that may be just my hopium. At least it would explain why Kubo cares so much about Kazui's VA, when he has like less than a dozen lines in the last chapter.

>>280039981
I think that what would start in the 25th Bleach anniversary is, finally, the Hell arc. It's the perfect moment. And, in my opinion, it'll start just when the anime ends, so I see the 4th season starting, if not in October, then in January opr April.

I just want TYBW to end so we can get to the hell arc.

>>280040258
>I think that what would start in the 25th Bleach anniversary is, finally, the Hell arc.
Not happening. They haven't had enough time to adapt even 3 episodes of that in secret. Especially since it would mean Kubo would have to be heavily involved. If not my theory, then maybe in August Kubo releases another chapter or illustration for Hell arc, before the announcement of its adaptation as an anime-only experience.

>>280040234
>I doubt they can do that in a single episode.
good thing theres like 6/7 eps worth of content free nigga theres only like 30chapters left

>>280040321
Kubo barely has any control over the anime. It's all PR bullshit. It's the same as the other Bleach stuff that aired.

>>280040323
>like 6/7 eps worth of content
Nope, and a lot of that will be just expanded fights, as we've seen until now. Realistically they have more like 3-4 episodes that aren't just expansions of canon.

>>280040321
I think Kubo is going to draw the Hell arc in manga form. I'm not interested if it's just ad0sswnime. The anime feels too different, especially in characters' portrayal, loses its charm.

>>280040485
>I think Kubo is going to draw the Hell arc in manga form
I think that too. Hell arc is already mostly hopium (just look at the state of BTW), but if it's gonna happen, it's more likely to be in manga than anime form. Especially since the anime hasn't been too successful financially.

>>280039981
>the anime is not starting [my headcanon]
It's starting and ending this year

>>280039523
Screw Tatsuki that crazy lesbo needed more love from Kubo.

>>280040532
Holy shit it fell off after cour 1 quality wise and the new director doesn't make the show feel like Bleach. Cour 4 needs be great otherwise they should've brought Abe back. The soundtrack usage ended up one of the worst I've seen in Bleach anime and the pacing is terrible.

>>280040572
With no trailer when we're almost in July? I'm sorry, but you're retarded my man.

>>280040641
she was the worst part of the cast
being a creep pervert is cringe
that is why Kon got sidelined

Atleast filler gave us some kino like this

>>280040721
They literally just told you when they're showing the trailer, dumb nigger

>>280040740
>being a creep pervert is cringe
So was Isshin desu, but Kubo toned that down.
>that is why Kon got sidelined
He had an actual motivation before he got turned into comic relief. He still got to stick around because he's ironic while Chizuru literally got written out after Arrancar. At least Kon gets to appear in every arc, bar Fullbringer strangely enough.

>>280040824
Iconic*

>>280040824
Motivation aside for being imprisoned and starving for affection. Kon did mellow out and so did Isshin and is mostly do to mangaka shenanigans because its just silly fun. Yet any reader agrees that gags can break the flow and themes during dramatic moments.

>>279994988 (OP)
Renji did the same to Rukia btw

>>280040907
Yeah, so that's my point, which I guess I should've explicitly mentioned. She could've been mellowed out to show some minimal character growth, especially after the timeskip. It's weird that she's singled out as disappearing completely among Ichigo's and the rest friend group, at least among the ones with more screentime, since characters like Michiru do too.

What happened to Karin and Yuzu, they're hybrids just like Ichigo. Why didn't aizen specifically ever address them?

>>280041065
He wanted Ishin to follow the Quincy tradition and have Ichigo fuck them both to create double hybrids

>>280041065
>What happened to Karin and Yuzu, they're hybrids just like Ichigo.
Kubo wanted to do something with Karin but dropped the plot point because he forgot and/or realized he had more important stuff to write about.
>Why didn't aizen specifically ever address them?
I don't know, why didn't Aizen do more stuff in the Human World? He framed Kisuke and then just left him to his own devices, even though the guy managed to create a Hogyoku of his own and was explicitly acknowledged as an intellectual rival. He only cares about his stupid Hollow experiment when he goes there 20 years before chapter 1.

Why did Kon ended up living with Ichigo and Orihime anyway? Wasn't he devoted to Rukia and also living in the Soul Society?

>>280043465
Rukia is a flattie who looks like a boy compared to the fertility goddess that is Orihime. Also, he likes Ichigo and his family. Why the fuck would he go to SS? Just to end up in Mayuri's lab again? It makes no sense, since he's always been depicted as Ichigo's buddy.

>>280043615
Then why does Orihime fuck everyone in the neighborhood?

>looks like a nerve was struck

>>280041018
Didn't she was traumatized and moved out after Aizen battle?

So like Yhwach? Aizen did all of that already which is why Yhwach feels tiring. Kubo just tried to do Aizen number 2 but failed in the writing department.

>>280049261
To add, it's the same shit.

>>280049261
Yhwach felt more personal considering the lore. Aizen was just a sperglord.

BORING THREAD

>>280025118
>>Aizen is an "envoy" who was sent to complete the "sublime purpose" of taking the Spirit King's place
Who sent him?

>>280051151
I love how the databook is extremely helpful as Kubo himself wrote this, it shatters shitty headcanons and theories. Anyways here's a possible response I found that could be helpful. It's still a mystery.

The UNMASKED databook describes Aizen as an "envoy" that was sent to complete the "sublime purpose" of taking the Soul King's place and creating a new world. Who (or perhaps what) sent this "envoy" and set that destiny for him is a complete mystery... for now.

One thing's for sure, though. The same databook clarifies Aizen's Hogyoku-granted form as a "God" beyond both Shinigami and Hollows, and the Hogyoku only grants you what you're already capable of achieving without its help. As the only other "Gods" that fit that description are the Soul King and its progeny, a connection is extremely likely.

>>280051219
chatgpt answer

Yhwach is a ripoff of Aizen.

>>280051278
Uhh no? It’s from someone who read the databook and clarified it with more details.

>>280051151
The true God of the bible. And Ichigo is the antichrist.

Aizen is straight up Lucifer.

>>280051488
No he’s from the true source, not the demiurge and he’s come to save the material souls from this horrid prison earth.

What's with all the Christianity in this show

>>280050654
Unknown, but Kubo has said that IRL he likes them flat
He draws giant tits to challenge himself

Aizen is christ and Ichigo is the antichrist.
Dangai/Mugetsu is all black while Aizen is white in all transformations. And no it’s not a coincidence.

>>280051559
Wait till you find out that 99% of media uses these concepts as a basis for most stories. It’s gnostic beliefs from the people who run the world.

>>280051612
>It’s gnostic beliefs from the people who run the world.
The Jews?

>>280051612
Most shows aren't directly about life after death.

>>280051219
>As the only other "Gods" that fit that description are the Soul King and its progeny, a connection is extremely likely.
Aizen is another miracle.

>>280051686
It doesn't have to be.

>>280051701
Thus they don't have Christian themes. Most anime have very little if any since Japan doesn't really do Christianity.

Why couldn't Kubo just write this in the manga so retards wouldn't go around lying and spreading misinformation?

So that retards would go around lying and spreading misinformation.

A lot of the Hueco Mundo lore has weird Christian/Religious themes too. Like Nelliel's sword release being Prase, Gamuza, and Nnoitra's being Pray Santa Teresa.

>>280051754
Gnosticism is a very generic term for a large number of different beliefs, it's not Christianity. The whole savior and adversity idea exists in most cultures.

A victory at the cost of the lost of his powers": Ichigo Isshin are in the in-between world in order to learn the supreme move wich is the Ultimate Getsuga Tenshô. in this space denser than thee external world , they have a lot of time ahead. Meanwhile, Aizen has dodged Gin's treacherous attack, became the owner of the hogyoku and evolves as a transcendent being as much hollow as shinigami. That's when Ichigo arrive with his final move.

anon, pls

>>280052820
Aizen would have regenerated and killed Ichigo. That wasn't even implied. It was outright stated

>>280052704
Does this even need to be spelled out?
The small part of Aizen's soul that wished to find an equal to his power, saw that person on Ichigo and copied his power(which he just lost) so it lowered Aizen's for just just an instant, in which the kido from Urahara activated.
After that instant passed, Aizen recovered his power and kept growing until now but of course he was in Mugen already.

>>280052940
So you have more authority over Kubo?

Which came from Kubo to clarify. That's weird as fuck man. Are you okay? Stuff can be explained.

>>280053022
Exactly. The tiny part of him that wished for that, but still was enough.

>>280053022
No it rejected him. I have a theory, Kubo probably thought like “Oh shit I need to explain these bits” and the wrote what needed to be said and that’s how you get this garbage like Bleach.

>>280053047
dude your "theory" was immediately debunked 10 years ago

Why are people getting so angry at the thought of the Hogyoku rejecting Aizen? Based Kubo pissing everyone off.

ichigo was spot-on, although he missed the second half >>280052964

>>280053106
It did happen which is why Kubo said it did.

Have you idiots ever came to the conclusion that Kubo changed his mind and just dropped a certain plot point? You know something that Kubo ALWAYS does.

>>280052968
>So you have more authority over Kubo?
>Wow I've seen it all
>>280053166

>>280053207
Nigga I’m talking about the plot point in the manga being dropped and the databook being used to state what actually happened. Kubo is constantly introducing maybe this or that and it never gets addressed later on or just changed altogether. It’s Kubo 101.

Embarrassing that this thread only went active after aizencucks had a meltdown over Ywach and an official databook line.

>Busy having a discussion over actual material
>Himefag: "Let me just drop my regular cooming shit material no one besides me will care about!"

>the databooks were all written by Kubo
Lmao, are people really that delusional? It's well-known someone else combed over the manga to piece together reasonable headcanons and Kubo just rubber stamped them. The only stuff there that's 100% by him are the side stories, written and drawn by him. You have to be out of your mind to think Kubo would do that much effort for little gain while he was busy with the serialization. Hell, he's even retconned his own Klub Outside statements, showing how little he really cares about this stuff compared to the autistic fans.

>>280053166
Your headcanon not happening =/= dropped plot point

>>280053406
>Embarrassing
More like based. Aizen fans actually wanna talk about something interesting instead of just posting ships and jerking of Gigis BQC (big Quincy Cock)

>>280053166
Well no one's denying this being an actual thing, just that this one may not have happened

>>280053121
dude, Ichigo already told you what happened a longtime ago, let it go.

no one can say kubo never changes when you get dropped characters like chad.
>>280053491
kubo contradicts himself in the manga, that data could've 100% done by him as the japanese don't sleep. provide evidence as he's constantly changing his mind.

>>280053528
Which can be changed on the spot…like good old Kubo.

>>280053491
>Hell, he's even retconned his own Klub Outside statements, showing how little he really cares about this stuff compared to the autistic fans.
He cares alot, he's just retarded and keeps dropping plot points.

>>280053506
Not so based if one line sets them off like this.

>>280053534
>no one can say kubo never changes when you get dropped characters like chad.
True
>Drops Chad so hard retarded newfags think Uryu is somehow his real best friend now
>Drops Tatsuki which fucking hurt for old readers as much as the god awful final arc was
>Dropped anything interesting in Fullbring Arc just to bring in Soul Reapers cause fuck the karakura gang yeah?

>>280053587
Dude is just making shit up as he goes. He admits he just writes things because it looks and sounds cool.

>>280053587
>Drops Chad so hard retarded newfags think Uryu is somehow his real best friend now
No Renji replaced him. He went from a powerhouse to background fodder. Fullbring was suppose to be his arc yet he has less screentime than Orihime and Uryu lol.

>>280053601
>Dude is just making shit up as he goes.
Only partially. That's the issue. He plans some stuff really well ahead of time, but it doesn't always go as it should, sometimes it comes out half-assed. Sometimes he either forgets or drops things. This is not even going into muh editorial pressure or muh health, which I've come to associate with pretexts pushed by dicksuckers who defend every piece of writing, no matter how bad, that came out of Kubo's pen.

Fuck Tite Kubo

>>280053491
>he's even retconned his own Klub Outside statements
No
>b-but muh yoruichi cat form

>>280053644

Just the story went so wrong in the middle of HM

>>280053635
>No Renji replaced him
ehhhhh i don't know about that he barely gets much shit (mostly cause no one cares about that mfer LOL)
>He went from a powerhouse to background fodder
I'm gonna be fair to Kubo here, i don't think i ever saw him being a powerhouse in the beginning obviously compared to other regular humans he was basically a man made of steel and the power he got doubled it but in no way could i see him being Captain class... unless he was suppose to get Vasto lorde powers?

Yes it is. Are you retarded? Do you need some lesson in reading comprehension?
>Q331:
>I want to know how Yoruichi can turn herself into a cat. Is it a technique she herself invented, or does she actually use some sort of spiritual tool belonging to the Shihouin clan? Or perhaps a tool or technique invented by Urahara Kisuke himself? I can’t think of anything else.
>A331:
>Yoruichi uses a technique she herself invented so she could sneak out of her clan’s mansion.

>I want to know why Yoruichi can take the form of a black cat. One way of interpreting things is that it is some sort of binding that changes her from her humanoid form to that of a black cat, but it seems to be fundamentally different from Hado and Bakudo. Is it a power not related to Kido? Or does it have to do with Kisuke's technology?
>A465:
>It's due to the Shihouin bloodline. Sometimes the Shihouin clan breeds people that can assume the form of an animal.

>>280053695
>ehhhhh i don't know about that he barely gets much shit
Maybe not much in the manga since Kubo barely does jackshit with Ichigo's friends but he still gets more "moments" with Ichigo than Chad after SS. In other Bleach content Renji is straight up Ichigo's best friend. Chad barely talks for fucks sake.

>>280053644
>He plans some stuff really well ahead of time
Give me one concrete example that isn't the Zangetsu/Yhwach connection, which I still consider to have been partially made up as he went along.

>>280053766
This man is getting old, holy shit.

>>280053776
>Kubo barely does jackshit with Ichigo's friends but he still gets more "moments" with Ichigo than Chad after SS
Gonna have to say no on that, as it does go more to Uryu since
>Followed along with Ichigo since the start
>Still interacted with him more after SS and HM
>Followed him to HM
>Followed to Ulquiorra
>Fullbring arc
Like Uryu nor anyone else should really be his biggest best friend as Chad was, so i don't think Renji really replaced Chad it was Uryu for whatever fuck all reason. Personally if he's gonna replace Chad with someone else, why the fuck wasn't it Tatsuki?

>>280053785
Not him but the connection i think was a combination of BOTH planning and also made up along the way, he had some type of idea back then but probably forgot it and for the last arc went "Wait... what if?...hm"

>>280053820
Really? I don't remember that much about Uryu other than him following like Chad.

>>280053847
He had more moments around with Ichigo (besides Rukia) when the Arrancar thing started, then even later when he lost his powers as well all the way to the end. Like count the amount of interactions when chad fell into the background between Renji and Uryu with Ichigo, Uryu would win out still.

>>280053766
No, you are the retard
There's no contradiction there. Being born with the ability to do something doesn't mean you automatically can do it. Yoruichi refined her latent talent into a technique

>>280053887
NTA, but you’re a moron.

>>280053887
No where does it say she refined a talent into a technique, it just says she INVENTED the technique only to then say it was her clans.

>>280053887

>>280053906
>no argument
I accept your surrender

>>280053877
They had the same amount screentime with Ichigo in each arc except for TYBW and that’s only by a slight amount

>>280053785
Orihime's character poem from volume 27 foreshadowing parts of Ulquiorra's character and her interactions with him, which occur two years later.

It hints at his Espada number and his preoccupation with the heart. The five directions align with the fingers of a hand, emphasized by the image (her hand touching its own reflection). This is also 6 months before we got the full deal with the heart in volume 30 from Rukia's flashback with Kaien.

Are most Bleachtards functionally illiterate? This shit could've been taken in a thousand different directions. It's the furthest thing from a plan. Kubo loves writing vague shit to leave room for future twists/reveals.

One of the worst BLEACH threads due to one databook line.

Yes. Atleast part of it was wholesome.

>>280054091
Are you insane? Genuinely, what the fuck? You said she refined her latent talent into a technique
NO WHERE DOES KUBO SAY SHE DID THAT instead he gives TWO DIFFERENT ANSWERS THAT NO WHERE IMPLIES THAT
1st question
>I want to know how Yoruichi can turn herself into a cat. Is it a technique she herself invented, or does she actually use some sort of spiritual tool belonging to the Shihouin clan?
>She invented the technique herself to sneak out the mansion
2nd question READ THIS ONE CAREFULLY
>I want to know why Yoruichi can take the form of a black cat
See that part? Same shit with the 1st question
lets continue the rest of the question
>One way of interpreting things is that it is some sort of binding that changes her from her humanoid form to that of a black cat, but it seems to be fundamentally different from Hado and Bakudo. Is it a power not related to Kido? Or does it have to do with Kisuke's technology?

Okay, i'm gonna play along with you, let me ask this then.
How does she invent turning into a black cat if her own bloodline breeds people that allows them to do that? Is that actually her own Technique or her clans?

I miss the wholesome talk before the aizen schizo meltdown.

>>280049991
>>280050625

>>280054313
Anon take your meds, you are gonna pop a vein
Ability isn't the same as technique
Clan's ability, Yoruichi's technique

>>280054353
stop trying to see behind posters anon, you'll never have that power

databook won

>>280054354
You have nooooooooot explained how it's Yoruichi's own technique NOR even how she could REFINE it if it's born to HER thanks to her own CLAN.

As much as I dislike the idea of Ulquiorra coming back, Kubo giving ammunition to suggest infidelity would piss off so many people it would be hilarious enough I think it may be worth it. Shippers only deserve to suffer, no matter who they are.

>>280054308
No shit. It's the final arc, why plan past it?

ITS THE ABILITY THAT CAME FROM THE FAMILY

>It's due to the Shihouin bloodline. Sometimes the Shihouin clan breeds people that can assume the form of an animal.
EXPLAIN

The Black grey nigga is dead dust trash buried. Kubo hates him so he’s never coming back. TYBW only happened because it was agreed upon years ago. Hell arc might not happen as Kubo’s arm and artstyle is deteriorating. It’s overr my niggas.

>>280054347
>Cope from a retard.
Sad!

>>280054452
Kubo is in fact jealous of his own creation. And to be honest, I don't blame him. Uyru is exceptionally handsome, power, intelligent, and has a good heart. He's all around the best.

>>280054427
>ITS THE ABILITY THAT CAME FROM THE FAMILY
Yes
And Yoruichi took that raw talent and refined/invented/whatever word you prefer a technique with it

According to Kubo the ones in Hell can see everything, right?

>>280054473
>Wow! Mom check this out! I can become the form of a big black man named Tyrone! Then go back to my own normal white self! Isn't it cool that i invented this myself?

>Oh... so i didn't really invent this?

>>280054463
Which is why no one really cares about him sadly.
Except you, that post was pretty faggy anon. Want to tell us something?

>>280054473
Thats no technique invented or refined or anything, she just figured out how to activate a bloodline technique to assume the form of a cat.
Thats it.

No, seriously anon, how do you invent something your own bloodline made? You're not INVENTING. You're not REFINING. What you're doing is DISCOVERING how to activate said Ability.

Stop trying to see behind posters anon, you'll never have that power

>>280054495
All I have to say is that our Successor deserves better. Kubo will rewrite the ending of TYBW and give our Successor what he deserves. So far in the first three cours, he's been doing well. He's been edging us. I nearly erupted when Uyru beat the fuck out of Renji, Senjumaru, and Ichigo. Now in cour four, Kubo will bless us again with more Uyru anime original content. And he will marry the reincarnated Nemu. Then all will be forgiven

>>280054542
I don't have to argue about nothing when it's obvious this guy is a total retarded cocksucker that can't figure out what the word INVENTING or REFINING means. You can't INVENT something your own bloodline made possible.

This is why the final arc should’ve been about Ichigo and Rukia, they started Bleach and it should’ve ended with them. Like no one gives a fuck about Ywach or the jewquins or Ichigo’s shitty friends.

>>280054597
Fortunately for me, I couldn't care less about popularity or what others think because I'm a 32 year old man. Not a child worrying about what other people like. And based on what Kubo has been doing so far, expect Uryu vs Hashbrown to be damn near totally rewritten except for key events, his role in the final confrontation to be expanded, and who knows what else. I will thoroughly enjoy it.

Ok. I was playing a game very few people care about yesterday. Then I played a game many people care about. I enjoyed them both. I hope you're getting my point.

Take me back to 2013 Bleach threads please

>>280054839
I get your point, but still no one cares about Uryu. Your virgin and his race killed bleach, would’ve probably succeeded if the plot focused on something that actually mattered.

>>280054853

>>280054858
>Your virgin and his race killed bleach
Bleach was dying before TYBW was a thing. The latter part of Arrancar and Lost Agent did it in. Hence the anime ending.

>>280054871
Wasn't even at that part yet in 2013 then lol

>>280054858
It was the Full Bringer Arc that hit the popularlity

>>280054875
and TYBW killed it when Hell arc would’ve saved it. How do you manage to make characters worse than the fullbring?

>>280054794
>Ulquiorra becomes Piccolo
That's basically already decided. He's too popular for anything else.

>>280054908
No he’s dead after getting his ass beat. Cope, he’s never coming back.

The majority of anons writing itt are younger than the manga itself. They weren't following it on a weekly basis.

>>280054917
he never left though

>>280054901
>when Hell arc would’ve saved it.
>How do you manage to make characters worse than the fullbring?
What if he outdoes himself with Hell arc? Maybe the old Gotei will be shit. The new characters from the one shot like Yuyu aren't a good start.

>>280054893
>>280054875
>>280054858
Bleach was only dying when Ichigo lost his powers as many suspected that was the ending of Bleach lol. Then when Fullbring came around it was interesting arc, but fumbled at the end and sales hit lower but people stuck around (for ships which a lot of people did not like). Thats all for why Bleach Sales sunk, anime also kept fucking up with Filler arcs cause they decided not to keep the right pace at the very beginning which kubo didn't like till he got involved a bit.

>>280054931
Probably, but hell is a better concept at its core than the quinfags. It would’ve done better regardless.

>>280054931

>>280054931
The hell arc is never coming just like Burn the witch, cause he doesn't know what the fuck to do as a continuation.

>>280054952
The Arrancar were still memorable, albeit not to the point of SS arc was.
FULLBRINGERS COULD'VE possibly COULD'VE been great had he not fucked it all up
>I'm the only one that remembers the few Giriko anons waiting for him to do something big
lol

>>280054942
>Powerless MC for a shonen audience with shitty characters as a side plot
Any competent editor would’ve nuked both this and the slog that is TYBW as the quincies were never interesting.

>>280054992
Remember he kept getting new editors that helped fuck things up even more, or when sometimes they'd want to reason with him he wouldn't listen lol.

>>280054989
>The Arrancar were still memorable
Literally like 5 guys out of dozens of characters. Grimmjow, Ulquiorra, Nnoitra, Starrk and Nelliel. That's it.
>FULLBRINGERS COULD'VE possibly COULD'VE been great had he not fucked it all up
How? Nobody cares about them besides the Facebook meme guy.
>Giriko anons
Okay anon, I can tell you really like Fullbring arc, but nobody in their sane mind must've been expecting anything out of that guy. He was never presented as a particularly important character. The whole conflict came down to the Ginjo/Tsukishima dynamic.

All this means is that the jewQuins will never get the focus again like Fullbring because of how bad they were.

>>280054277
Ishihime was always cringe. The girl never saw him as a man and was far more interested in the emo monster that killed her crush that mentally abused her

Ishinemu was always peak. The created daughter of the man that tortured your grandfather started thinking for herself and tried to fondle you each and every chance she could

>>280055023
>Literally like 5 guys out of dozens of characters
Plenty remembered the top 10 Espada what? Yammy and Harribel were plenty popular near those 5 you listed. It was mainly just the 10 espada people remember good enough.
>How? Nobody cares about them besides the Facebook meme guy
You'd be surprised that many thought it could've been interesting after the ending of that arc, and how so much went wrong.
>Okay anon, I can tell you really like Fullbring arc, but nobody in their sane mind must've been expecting anything out of that guy.
I did not like Fullbring arc, i'm telling you that there were at least 3 fucking anons who expected him to do something big and when he got cut down everyone laughed at them.

>>280055054
>Promoting a dead ship with cope.
Lack of fics and fanart speaks volumes.

>>280055078
Not him but theres still some made to this day, also might have some saved in a folder somewhere from drawfag way back when.

>>280055060
>Yammy
>popular
Lmao, if this guy didn't tag along with Ulquiorra half the time as well have his retarded Zero Espada reveal everyone makes fun of nobody would even remember this ugly jobber. Harribel was also a nobody with the most pathetic showing of the Espada, and kept getting humiliated even in TYBW. At least you should've listed someone like Szayel.

>>280055110
Szayel everyone outside hated cause he was an annoyingly long fight that should've ended long ago, also i said memorable for a good lot of them.

>>280055098
Do you know what “lack of” means?

>>280055023
>Grimmjow, Ulquiorra, Nnoitra, Starrk and Nelliel.
None of the Fullbringers or Quincies come even close to being as memorable or popular as them. Maybe Haschwalth and Bazz B.

>>280055110
Atleast they didn’t turn into cocaine dust.

>>280055130
Kubo clearly loved the guy enough to bring him back. Twice, even. The Nemu bit, Mayuri's perfection speech and his cruel death are plenty memorable.
>>280055149
Nah, he just jobbed off-screen and died like a bitch all alone in the sand lol

>>280055175
Must’ve gotten high off of his remains.

I genuinely believe the only real dud among the Espada was Zommari. The rest were decent enough and served their purpose given their limited screentime. It was also clear from the get-go characters like Ulquiorra and Grimmjow would receive preferential treatment, so I wouldn't compare the others with those two.

>>280055207
Only Grimmjow and Nel got that treatment.

>>280055207
Hell no, the top 3 Espada were absolutely pathetic for how hyped they were. At least Starrk and Barragan had the decency to die before their name got dragged into the mud.
>>280055220
What treatment? Because they survived and were brought back in TYBW as fanservice to barely do anything, or nothing in Nel's case?

>>280055237
Getting brought back is extreme preference considering everyone else remained dead.

>>280055247
Might as well say nobodies like Loly got extreme preference then. Characters sticking around and not doing much of note is literally one of the biggest issues in Bleach.

>>280055264
Oh well. Considering TYBW kind of flopped in the last half, it’s going back to Ichigo and his crew if the hell arc continues. New characters will jackup space from old ones doing anything.

>>280055247
>Getting brought back is extreme preference considering everyone else remained dead.
NTA but Luppi, Charlotte and Cirucci's treatment was nothing to write home about. This really applies to all Arrancars in TYBW who weren't named Grimmjow, and even he jobbed. Much better to actually receive a dignified end like Ulquiorra or Nnoitra did then languish into irrelevance.

>>280055315
>Much better to actually receive a dignified end like Ulquiorra or Nnoitra did then languish into irrelevance.
>Both died the stupidest ways possible.

>>280055315
>Much better to actually receive a dignified end like Ulquiorra or Nnoitra did then languish into irrelevance.
And that's why Grimmjow and Nel were brought back. They were literally off-screened with no closure. Imagine if Kubo told us they died.

>>280055330
>Both died the stupidest ways possible.
Maybe to a retarded speedreader.
>>280055336
Okay, fair enough,

>>280055359
>literally gets two-shotted by MUH TWO HANDS asspull after even Kenpachi admitted he could've died
>dies to an asspull powerup but not before conveniently saving Uryuu's life and Ichigo's conscience for no reason
Dude

>Aizen stuck in a cuck chair
>Ywach jobs to Ichigo’s sperm
>Grimmjow and Nel no where to be found
>Orihime, chad, and ishida has little to no screentime
>Only focuses on Renji, Ichika, Ichigo, Kazui with even more random who characters no one cares about

Embarrassing

>>280026816
People all thought this was Ichigo but it will turn out to be the lord of hell. A big question of the hell arc will be why the Lord of hell and Ichigo look like twins

>>280055557
Considering Kubo was the one who came up with skull clad Ichigo, then probably. The real question is why are his eyes blue? And the left side looks like Horn of salvation especially with one of his eye whites blacked.

>>280055557
>People all thought this was Ichigo but it will turn out to be the lord of hell
Please no. Ichigo doesn't need more chosen one asspulls. Isn't he special enough already?
