inb4 Tsuki actually wrote the manga, not Aizen.

[Ragnus]

I'm still going with the Tsuki is the son / relative of Aizen theory.

Aizen wrote it. But Tsuki is just gonna make us all think he wrote it.

I'm still wondering when the Vizards are going to show up and pile-drive Tsuki and Ginjou into the ground. Seriously, how is everyone totally oblivious to all of this going on?

Nigga this is a Bleach thread where common sense doesn't belong here

[Insanecyclone]

I just want him to show/discuss more about the damn Spirit King. I love all the hole still open and if this were to end because of sales, then that would honestly suck. No weekly trololo manga fill.

Nigga this is a Japanese publication thread where common sense doesn't belong here

fixed because its so fucking true :/

Or.... It was tsuki that stabbed him and he used that book of the end shit to make him think ginjou did it. With this stupid ass power, everything everyone says could be a lie, shit, this could be the first time Ginjou got stabbed and theres no way for us to know yet.

Actually that was something I was thinking about too but then it wouldn't make sense as to why Uuryu would be on Ichigo's side to begin with though. Or why he said "he heard the whole thing from downstairs and he's on Ichigo's side. Rather than hey I already know what happened via Tsuchiki's memory thing you're a dousche Ichigo.. And if this is Ginjou's first time being stabbed why does he still consider Tsuchiki an enemy? Wouldn't seem logical to have Ginjou as an enemy when he could be an ally. You're scenario implies that Tsuchiki will remain a bad guy, meanwhile Ginjou is a bad guy on his own side. Bleach reeks of good vs evil rather than hey lets have separate politics and multiple opposing forces. Plus I don't think Kubo could even write such a complex story without getting lost it in himself. . .

Regardless of either scenario theres still a giant plot hole as to why Ginjou had those allies with the similar power if he was really the bad guy.

There is no real way to justify why they should be bad. The only thing I could think of is that either tsuchiki stabbed them all into thinking he was the bad guy initially and then stabbing them again made them remember he was the good guy? If this is the case though why would he stab them to begin with? He could have just been like pretend Ginjou is the good guy kthx. Or that they really were all evil as well initially and now they are good? But if they were evil and now good why would they want to help Ichigo previously when Ginjou's goal was clearly to injure Ichigo.

I was thinking more like, everyone (but ichigo) has only been stabbed once. So Ginjou really is a god guy, but tsuki just put the memory of being stabbed twice and all that bullshit into his head just now. He probably made uuryu think ginjou stabbed him just so he would make sure ichigo got mindfucked and believed ginjou's new made up story.

Honestly, none of it really is gonna make sense lol.

[Odin'sLaw]

trolling at its finest! next arc will be mind blowing....

[Dantrag]

Someone needs to photoshop Kubo's face on Singed's body from LOL. Fusion of two ultimate trolls.

Lol... while it'd actually be pretty funny if he made Ginjou think he was a villain, it seemed Ginjou was fine after being stabbed then turned on Ichigo when Ishida called him out. Then again, he could have written into his mind that he was the villain and he's manipulating Ichigo so don't blow it immediately... freaking broken abilities >.>;

[kuronosan]

So Aizen's ability lets him make people think they are experiencing whatever he wants them to, and Tsuki's ability lets him make people think they are experiencing whatever he wants them to.

You'd think Ichigo would know better.

[Guitarman]

i'm fairly ok with the plotholes and whatnot, but what bugs me is ichigo was this super fast person in bankai when he fought byakuya, then after that fight, it was completely forgotten by kubo. i mean, that was the whole "thing" his bankai was about; super speed. It still irks me.

as for this arc, I think it's just a way for him to put something out and give ichigo his powers back. Hoping the next arc goes back to soul reaper shit.

Any word when the last Bleach movie going to get subbed? Shit seems like it's been forever since it was released.

[Jojimbo]

Don't think it's out on DVD yet? There is a huge time between cinema and DVD release for Bleach movies.

EDIT:: From wiki:

The DVD release of the movie in Japan is due for August 25, 2011.

[Eaglestrike]

How do they even harvest these ratings, anyway? I mean, if it's as dumb as Nielson shit does TV here, then you honestly wind up with no true understanding of good or bad because opinions fucking vary.

If Bakuman is to be believed, and I understand how it works from there, basically with each WSJ there's a questionairre at the end and you fill it out with rankings of your top 3 choices or something and they use those to see how well a series did. So it's the actual people willing to pay for the product that gets to vote for what stays/goes.

[arus2001]

Okay, so just because something isn't someone's top 3 doesn't mean it's their 20th. Basically a bullshit system, then.

It might be BS in some circumstances, but in the case of Bleach falling in the rankings, it really is a very clear showing that people aren't liking the series.

[Xno Kappa]

Don't see why it's a big deal. Shit still draws an assload of cash compared to the average manga in Japan.
