Bleach

[Tajin]

Cool lets all hit Aizen in non critical places, he'll hogo his way back anyway and do more stupid speeches. Indeed best part of chapter is son and dad comic relief.

[Xno Kappa]

This is the definitive chapter where Bleach has officially jumped the shark. It didn't just jump that shit either, it nuked it along with the fridge.

Only way I can see any saving for this mess of a story would be if Urahara told Aizen he didn't know wtf he's talking about and is just making shit up.

[Lucavi]

I hate how they portray Urahara in not completely understanding the full capabilities of the Hougyoku when he made the shit. Yet Aizen busts out of nowhere talking about how the dragon ball finally understands his heart. One of the biggest bullshits of the plot and one of my biggest complaints with Bleach right now.

Yeah, it reminds me of a Megaman webcomic I'm in love with, where one of his robot masters tries to child him for blowing up on another that questioned one of his decisions. His response was delicious:

"Are you questioning ME?! I designed the personality matrix AND the emotion grid! The only reason you -THINK- is because of ME!"

Someone trying to (or being successful at) have(ing) more knowledge about something that someone else created is idiotic. If I designed the first computer, I think I'd know more about how it runs than some guy that stole it from me long after the fact.

Kinda like how SE knows more about how to play ffxi than we do right?

On a completely unrelated topic; Where's Unohana? She was right behind Ichigo.
another thing that doesnt make sense about the hogyoku is that apparently due to this new retcon, The entire arrancar and the HM arc should not have happened.
How was he creating Arrancar if that's not what his heart desired?

More importantly, if his heart desired to have a strong army of VLs to lay waste to SS and make the key, why didn't it just make a fucking key or make them super strong? Tousen desired Justice and became a vizard, what the hell does Gin desire? Starrk was a naturally strong arrancar and was still weaker than Shikai-Shitface in the end.

I just get the feeling this is all being made up every week to troll the US readers because Kubo knows the JP eat it up but the NA say "lol fuck your red ferrari".

And LOL at SJ expecting people to pay for this garbage. The only reason it still has as many as fans as it does is because it's free lol.

That's probably the only reason I read Bleach is because it's free. I'm not going to wait 5 years buying a book to find out it sucks in the end.

They did beat AV with only 18 people

[Lucavi]

They also knew aaaallll about goblin drink.

[BadKarma]

Steal the hogo and give it to zaraki so he can learn bankai problem over.

[Zilong]

Give Hougyoku so Kenpachi can be his own sword.

Then his bankai can be him dual wielding himself

[BadKarma]

Also in before the Hogo knows of what it wants, becomes self aware, and goes skynet.

[Ragnus]

Page 17, middle/right panel is my exact reaction too this chapter. Except I'm yelling at myself. That's too funny that SJ wants us to pay for this crap.

And at that point it's possible she didn't spend much time around Rukia to get the Hougyoko powers.

Keigo was around rukia way more. deep in his heart he wanted to be ichigo's biggest fanboy and got jack squat.

I know I'm a little late on this one, but my bet is she is probably digging under some rubble for Hiyoris legs.

[Serif]

The ability of the Hougyoku is to materialize the hearts within its vicinity. If the target does not essentially possess the power necessary to beget their desires, however then it is impossible. In that sense, it can be called a "Power that guides in the direction of desire."

So whomever has the stronger will/desire the Hougyoku will do what that person bids?

Isshin dies infront of Ichigo
Ichigo has a stronger desire
The end?

[Sho]

Yea, I'ma have to agree. This chapter was BS unless Urahara does something epic.

[Skotty]

At the end of page 5 Aizen says "that happened around Kurosaki Ichigo, Kuchiki Rukia, and Urahara Kisuke".

I can understand Kisuke and Rukia but why was Ichigo included in the list?

Same reason as Chad and orihime

[Gredival]

"I only became aware of the Hougykou's powers when I became its host"

3 pages later

"I sent Kuchiki Rukia to Ichigo to test Hougykou's power"


How the hell were you aware that shit needed testing when you weren't it's host? KUUUUUUBBBBBOOOOO

[Kaylia]

He said he had an idea that making vizard wasnt its true power, but he didn't know exactly what. He tested it on other people, before trying it on himself, that's it.

[Gredival]

Rukia didn't have the hougykou until Urahara gave her the gigai with it implanted. So how did it respond to her desires?
