No story-line is safe from Aizen.
No story-line is safe from Aizen.
When did Aizen develop a reiatsu cloak a'la Urahara?
Fuck sake.
Well this is happening like 100 years after Urahara left, and he wore it when he confronted Aizen, so Aizen has had time to copy it.
Well it's more like 80 years, but yea. I'm well aware that Aizen has had time to copy it. It's just retarded that they're continuously building Aizen up as the Moriarty to Urahara's Sherlock.
Aizen, the troll that never dies
Isshin uses his sword and Aizen attacks right after and we don't even get to see what power it has. Figures.
One cool thing that I wanted to point out: Ryuuken said that there are other half-bloods out there (that may not be dead yet) and that the Quincy generally don't enter a battle until after the shinigami are dead. That's probably why you never saw him interfere in FKT despite his presence there.
Least we got to see Isshin release his sword before Aizen trolled us again.
Really hard to give a fuck about this arc with the Zaraki thing looming over our heads, though. I'm way more interested in that than this snooze-fest.
Oh look another chapter where absolutely nothing fucking happens.
This is getting annoying and kubo is just stretching out Bleach at this point. It's not even interesting anymore to read, literally only 3 of the scans had something useful the rest was just we're going to fill this blank space with stuff.
Right. 'Cause fuck that guy for wanting to tell a story! Bring on the slice 'n' dice motherfucker! amirite?
Spoiler: show
Pretty much. May seem like "nothing" from the context of it being a flashback, but independently we got a bit of insight on Masaki's personality as well as Isshin basically figuring out he was fighting someone's science project. Aizen directly interfering is probably the biggest surprise, though.
the "nothing" seems even more after a week break though...
Ya'll crazy. This chapter was awesome.

I've found some pretty interesting things by digging through the old bleach chapters:
Hollows attacking shinigamis, their presense masked, gin+aizen show up to save the day: http://www.mangahere.com/manga/bleach/v15/c130.5/
Look at the chapters name, fusion of a hollow and a shinigami eh?: http://www.mangahere.com/manga/bleach/v16/c136/
------------------
Also I just had a moment of thoughts so stupid they may be on the right track. Bear with me for a bit here, spoilered part of the fluff to cut down post length: Isshin has used getsuga before, also I'm pretty sure his sword wasn't even in shikai when he used it. Isshin just unleashed his shikai with "burn", leading me towards thinking that his moves shouldn't be something like getsuga.
Spoiler: show
A quincy uses the reishi in the atmosphere and combines it with their spirit power to materialize spirit weapons. A shinigami channels their spirit power into/with a zanpakuto or into pure kidou attacks. Since Ichigo is both quincy and shinigami he is able to channel is own spirit power to manifest/materialize his spirit weapon on his own. I think getsuga is simply an imitation of a quincy attack. Instead of gathering outside energy into the shape of an arrow and firing it he gathers energy from inside himself into his "bow" (zangetsu) and fires it. As Isshin spent so long with Masaki he learned how to perform the same type of imitation.
The final getsuga tenshou is exactly the same as Letzt Stil. He lost all his spirit powers by activating and using it the same way Uryuu Ishida did. When Ichigo was stabbed with a sword full of energy to get his spirit powers back he was stabbed in the same exact spot that Ryuuken Ishida shot Uryuu with an arrow to get him his spirit powers back.

I still not sure on how to properly tie in the hollow powers besides writing it off as caused by hollowfication when he barely managed to get his real shinigami powers in the first place. Although if I do actually just do that then both his hollow powers and his shinigami powers are what makes up himself, or rather his spirit energy. And since he's using his quincy-ness to use his own spirit energy instead of external energy to manifest/materialize his spirit weapon, that would mean that the spirit weapon would in fact be made from both his hollow and shinigami powers. Which would make inner hollow ichigo and zangetsu the same person, which they are.
Although it's possible that getsuga is a hollow technique since hollow ichigo keeps going on about how he used gave it to ichigo.
Also: http://www.mangahere.com/manga/bleach/v25/c219/17.html
Hollow Ichigo = Hollow; Zangetsu = Shinigami; Ichigo = Quincy. All three powers combined make up the whole. Possibly Ichigo is 'quincy' by default, during hollow transformations the hollow would be the king, and if the shinigami powers/zangetsu were the king he'd look like he did during the final getsuga tenshou mode. Which would make sense seeing as how an extreme overload of his shinigami powers so great it would cause him to lose them (hello Letzt Stil) would therefore cause his outward appearance to be closer to zangetsu's.

He's never properly done shit with zangetsu, only forcefully taken techniques. That'd be a good reason why asauchi hates his ass.
So much rambling that is possibly correct. I probably should have just slept instead of looking up this shit.
