I wonder if Yammy having no dialogue for the last few chapters means he'd otherwise be saying 'HI I'M YAMMY I'M HERE TO SLOW THE STORY DOWN AND PROVIDE A PUNCHING BAG FOR THE SHINIGAMI'
Here's my prediction:
Yammy is going to be the espada Ichigo. He's a big bundle of reiastu, but terrible at using it. Meaning he is the most powerful power-wise, but fight-wise he's the least powerful. And this will give him a likeness to Ichigo, who is the most powerful "Shinigami" power-wise, but most likely not fight-wise. And they'll play out the fight in Hueco Mundo as Ichigo is losing to Aizen.
...and then Ichigo gets a random willpower upgrade and wins the fight and wins.
Ever sense the top three espada were taken down, i think that the story wen't off a cliff and is now spiraling down towards the ground.
I like how Unohana finally acknowledges how much potential strength Ichigo has and that there's an explanation for his coat and why it behaves as it does. Although it's kind of weird that they explain it by saying his amount of coat remaining is proportional to how much energy he has left.
Hmph.
Does that mean when he hollowfied to that vasto lorde form he wasn't at full power!?
In my opinion, I thought it was a pointless bit of information that will only lead Kubo to more plot-holes.
lol I liked the gradual zoom-in it did on unohana's eye between pages 5 and 6 :D
starts all far and then BAM pupils
I like how the past few chapters seemed to have gone back to more like his older drawing style. I missed cuteface ichigo
Based on my extensive knowledge of how the manga business works via Bakuman, Bleach most likely fell low on the questionairre rankings and thus Kubo's editor got on his ass to return to actually writing Bleach instead of drawing it, so Bleach is back to being a real manga.
Let's hope so. Two years of shitty bleach made me lost faith.
lol'd at Unohana's reaction. Also, I'm loving the fact that she's getting a little attention.
seeing her suprised at ichigo being at 50%, or less reiatsu, yet still being captain level was fun. TOO BAD HE CANT USE HIS MASK LULZ
it'll turn out his vasto lord near death loliwin form is immune to aizens sword.
I read that as loli-win instead of lol-i-win at first. >.>
I'm in the same boat that this information on his coat is pointless information that'll just come back (or already is) as a massive plot hole later on. Meh, what can ya do..
