I think it's fairly obvious now that Zangetsu was activating Blut Vene to keep Ichigo from dying at that point.

Anyway, here's where everyone realizes the Sternritter are about to have a bad time.

Spoiler: show

Edit: It would be amazing if we get a scene like when Ichigo appeared at the end of the Soul Society arc and insta-gibbed Isane/Sasakibe/Omaeda, but on steroids. Just *blink* and they all go rocketing off in different directions. What will actually happen is he'll probably tank all four of them for shiggles and then after the slut brigade starts freaking out we'll bounce back over to Shinji (who will eventually be aided by Toshiro).

I don't even care. I liked this chapter. Mangastream's translation is WAY better, as usual.

So... what the fuck has Ikkaku been doing this whole time? Niggah is captain tier and we ain't seen him once.

**Serif** · 2014-05-21 17:34

I would love for Zaraki to get all hyped and just go after Ichigo. The 4 other chicks are like wtf and in the crossfire they all die. But who knows

**Obsidian** · 2014-05-21 17:35

Broken Bankai makes him sub-Captain class and I'm not convinced I want to know what he and Yumichika have been doing this whole time.

Everyone in Bleach just stands still after their last fight until everyone else is done with their fight, like Kubo yells 'CUT' and then nothing else happens until cameras are rolling again. It's been that way since Hueco Mundo at least.

I just thought of that south park episode where randy is writing a play and puts everyone on a hold lmao.

Wasn't Ikkaku one of the guys that got ambushed by Mask before he started fighting the Vizards? He was probably recovering/getting healed.

Woops, yeah he was (and so was Yumichika). Well if he's poking around Hisagi should also be up and we can see that bankai of his... (/drool).

This also reminds me that I desperately want to see more of SUPER FUCKING BADASS human-ish Komomura. I wonder what he and Tetsuzaimon are doing.

**Serra** · 2014-05-21 19:54

Didn't he turn completely into a fox?

**Xno Kappa** · 2014-05-21 19:57

Yeah. Dude had his moment of badassery then went completely fox. Sucks because that form really was pretty epic.

**Obsidian** · 2014-05-21 20:03

I'm holding out hope there's some way for him to get back into that form.

**Charismatic** · 2014-05-21 20:06

On one hand, he was a total badass right there... on the other hand it would ruin that entire moment.

**Obsidian** · 2014-05-21 20:09

I don't know if I would say that. Given that the canine appearance is apparently a curse I think it would be pretty sweet if there were a way for him to repent and finally lift the curse from himself and his family permanently. Maybe accepting the full Fox transformation is part of it.

Either way he was the fucking bomb when he was human and it would suck for him to be rendered a bystander for the rest of the war.

I'm confused why the captain stated that no one else in the city could put up a fight except Zaraki. Rukia may be injured, but Byakuya is fresh and powered up. Renji comfortably won his last fight without any injuries. A few of the old captains have had their asses handed to them, but they were fodder anyways.

**Obsidian** · 2014-05-21 21:38

I'm not convinced Shinji realizes they're around. Even if he does, I think he was talking in a broader sense. Killing Zaraki would certainly be a blow to Soul Society's chances.

**Serra** · 2014-05-21 21:47

And Shunsui and Ukitake should still be out there somewhere too. I remember the number two guy confronted Shunsui, but nothing came of that, right?

**Xno Kappa** · 2014-05-21 21:50

I think it was a stupid ass statement. Just like Alarial said, you have a fresh Byakuya, Shunsui, Ukitake, and Mayuri. Even more stupid is Shinji busting nuts screaming at the top of his lungs where's Ichigo during the Aizen fight yet completely forget about him during the Quincy invasion.

**arus2001** · 2014-05-21 22:02

Or he's just playing mind games with the enemy, even if Kenpachi going down would be a valid blow. To be honest, I'll be kind of annoyed if fire guy can get around his sword's ability. Aizen at least had the hax excuse of being another sensory manipulator. The only real valid offense I could see mowhawk man churning out against it would be an all-directional blast.

Alarial · 2014-05-22 00:25

Didn't really look like he gave him time to activate his sword. Just Hi -> Lava finger.

Kubo always finds creative ways to ruin everything. So trust him it'll happen.
