I'm excited for bleach to end.

>>141887045
All in due time.
At the very least I think it's safe to say we'll get a few OVAs once the manga finishes.

Nobody. The fullbringers were the bount of the manga.

>>141886866
>he posted it again

>>141886845
I can't imagine they'd do anything satisfying now. I was hoping they'd be able to at least gang up on some low ranking grunt, but there's hardly anyone left. Unless Kukaku wasn't sending them to help the gotei in the first place.

>>141887262
At this point I think the only possible way they could be relevant is for Kugo to reveal some secret backstory with a potential power up.
Tsukishima's abilities would have been great to see played against the Quincy and their Schrifts though.

Predict what you guys think will happen to Orihime in the new chapter. Will she:

1. Save Ichigo from the darkness / rain?
2. Say Kurosaki-kun two or more times?
3. Reveal herself as the right/left leg of the Soul King?
4. Reject Yhwach from existence?
5. Summon Ulquiorra with her third hairpin?
6. Throw herself in front of Yhwach's attack and sacrifice her life?
7. Other (write in)

>>141887495

>>141887425
Did we even get a real power from Ginjo? I remember the X necklace and the stupid sword, but did it actually do anything by itself? Was him stealing Ichigo's powers something it did or just a general thing he was planning?

>>141887495
1 is slightly possible, but we have Rukia for that.
2 is also possible, and would be nice to actually see her useful.
3-6 I think are crazy and unlikely, but this is Kubo....

If Ishida was planning to stop Juda bach all along, why did he stop them from saving the soul king, only to act after he gain soul king's powers?

>>141887597
Ginjo is the same as Yawach.
He can take someone's power(ichigo)
He can distribute power

>>141887597
Purely by canon, he has a sword that shoots energy, along with the ability to steal other Fullbrings, as well as share Fullbrings between other Fullbringers. This gave him Ichigo's Fullbring.
He also possesses a Bankai, but whether its a result of Ichigo's powers or his own was never stated.
If it was Ichigo's he should then have his own Sub Shinigami powers, unless they were removed by some means.

>>141887694
This would be a nice explanation, and would nicely remove the whole "its because hes a fullbringer and substitute shinigami" reason that never made sense.

>>141887663
Quincy: Plotstandig.

>>141887663
Some stupid fucking suicide plan he had by planting bombs that could only react to his reiatsu to trap them all where they were.
Plan got fucked by Jugo.

So what happens when Facebook pokes Yhwach with his sword?

>>141887495
I think she is going to do something useful. Two chapters ago we got to see meaningful character development from Orihime. She was finally going to be able to protect the one she loves the most in life. Instead of being protected by Ichigo, Orihime would be doing the protecting.

I don't see all of this development adding up to a few Kurosaki-kuns and then Orihime is kicked out of the room. If this does end up happening, it would be pointless. Not only would it show Orihime's complete worthlessness, but it would also highlight the ineffectiveness of one of the strongest powers in Bleach.

If the above scenario happened, she would have been better off helping Chad fend off the statues or Ishida in his fight with Haschwalth. In those fights she could be relegated to being the white mage and simply provide support when needed.

All in all, I believe Orihime will do something relevant. Whether it is stopping the rain or saving Ichigo from Yhwach, we will finally see the results from all her training with Rukia and others. This is her last chance to shine, I really think she will protect Ichigo even if it means sacrificing herself for him

What do you mean? In her mind, Ichigo has finally validated her strength. She doesn't need to worry that she's being a burden, she can finally feel like part of the team. This development should (and most likely will) show in her fighting.

>>141888051
>Orihime is there to protect her husbando
>Rukia is coming to help, too
So Ichigo needs two bitches to save him now, huh?

>>141888051
I hope for everything you have said.
But I do not expect it.

>>141887663
he had to get them all in one place then find the time to get around to planting the bombs without any interference. he couldn't just excuse himself fromt he room with the other elites there, and they were only in the palace for a few hours before night fell and they all split up to handle the gotei.

>>141888273
The stronger he gets the more he needs. The first time it was Rukia, then it was Isshin. Now, it might be Orihime, Rukia, and Isshin.

Speaking of fullbringers, what the fuck was the lovegun? How did Tsukishima manage to build some kind of magic powered gun as a normal human?

>>141888494
We don't actually know if he did invent it. Think about it, he could have just as easily inserted himself into riruka's memory so that she thought ht invented it.

Damn, I'm tired

They left my favourite Fullbringer, Jackie, out.

Probably because she no longer has powers.... like that has stopped anyone from regaining them.

>>141889983
She didn't die, anon.

Spoilers when?

>>141889706
It wasn't clear that he didn't replace someone else when he inserted himself into stuff like the SS arc or brainwashing Ichigo's friends. And he confusingly actually gained personal experience from inserting himself into Byakuya's memories.

>>141890304
In about 70 hours.

>>141890345
Because is his memories they trained together. Which should've tipped Byakuya off because Tsukishima is a human and shouldn't possibly have lived for hundreds of years alongside him.

>>141890491
Tsukishima inserting an image of himself to alter someone's memories to be slightly different is not equitable to him gaining memories of something he never did.

>>141889983
>They left my favourite Fullbringer, Jackie, out.
Why is Jackie your favorite?

>>141889772
I'm still holding to the idea that Aizen will give Ichigo the Hogyoku.

>>141889983
Well, technically Kuugo, Giriko, and Tsukishima are all dead. As Plus souls and not humans they should have had their basic spirit skills more or less reset upon entering Soul Society, and unless they're Shinigami now, or got some help from Urahara, they shouldn't have physical bodies and/or their Fullbring items can't enter SoulSociety, so they can't actually access their powers anyhow.

>Soul Society are actually the bad guys
I really want this to happen. I want to see Ichigo and friends vs. Soul Society.

>>141889706
Like a bookmark, her slips himself between any of their pages.
He didn't replaces Orihime's brother, I don't think. If I recall, he inserted himself into the memory so that he was instrumental in dealing with her brother.

Basically he can put a memory of himself doing whatever the fuck he wants into anywhere in their past.

As a result, the "now" of that person changes to be as if he was really there.

That's why the "now" of the ground set a trap, and why Tsukishima knew stuff about Byakuya's bankai. Because by effecting his memory, Byakuya and Tsukishima we behaving as if that memory happened.

It's pretty useful, but as we saw, not particularly powerful. His main strength is in getting others to fight for him.

>>141886845
No one among the target demographic, that's for sure.

>>141891460
No he directly inserted himself in the place of her brother as the one person who saved her from her abusive parents

>>141891549
Oh, so he did.
So wait..
does that mean someone ELSE trained with Byakuya to achieve bankai, and that's why he could insert himself?

I dunno, I seem to recall nearly all the other instances being "and Tsuki was there too!"

>>141889706
>>141891460
It's not just "memories" though. It's "history". Not in the sense that he changes the timeline or anything, but he himself experiences the entirety of what it was like living with the person whose past he inserted himself into. To be specific, he didn't just alter Byakuya's memory, for example. He literally inserted himself into Byakuya's personal history to the point where he (Facebook) remembers training alongside him every day of his life and learning all about his bankai. It wasn't just knowledge Facebook gained, he gained the actual fight experience to the point where he, a mere human, was able to stand toe to toe against one of the strongest shinigami captains.

>>141891549
I thought that was Masaki for a second and was legitimately confused.

>>141891631
well yes, but that's because he's reading the page of their story that he's placed his bookmark at.

>>141891617
I think the issue is that Kubo didn't dwell on it long enough to clarify. But the way I interpret it is that he was able to do both.

>>141891631
Byakuya versus Facebook was pretty badass. I didn't think Byakuya would have another cool fight after the SS arc vs Ichigo, but that was pretty good.

>>141891549
What is the school Orihime went to?

>>141891971
Karakura High School

>>141891988
The logo on her shirt is a gothic M

>>141892010
its their middle school
same one karin and yuzu went to

>>141890781
He inserts himself into their pasts literally. It's technically a time power. He gains the memories too.

How come Ichigo never gets to learn meme abilities, but all his powerups consist of going faster and hitting harder?

>>141886845
>Ryukken finally involved in the Quincy plot
>people actually look forward to Fullshitters instead

>>141892171
What do you mean by meme ability?

>>141892171
>Getsuga Tenshou
>not a meme ability

>>141892175
He will shoot Geralt apart before he can regenerate just like he did with the regenerating menos back then, just so Kubo could pull the same bragging rights monologue with him.

I thought Ryuuken hated Quincies, why the fuck is he dressing up like one?

>>141892275
You have to dress to impress, anon.

>>141892275
Hate isn't the word I'd use.
He just feels like there is no need or point in being a quincy as is doesn't bring in money, it's not something I'd call hatred.
Even so, I don't know why he'd dress like that.

Is this picture talking about Ukitake and Gerard? If so, who do the other two represent?

>>141892323
Especially considering he never had those clothes unless they are his fathers'. They're typical Sternritter clothes, the same that Ishida got but he got them from the actual Sternritter.

>>141892370
That one is Yhwach's backstory.

>>141892370
Ukitake's lungs were never cured.

>>141892275
Have you not paid attention to Ryuuken's style?
he always wears a suit jacket and slacks with a quincy themed tie.
He's now just wearing a doulbe breasted suit jacket instead of a single breasted one, and a cape on top of his normal clothes.

>>141892629
I didn't know we were in /fa/ . Really though, good eye anon.

pretty certain we're all excited for Ryuuken and hopefully stories about Souken, but let's be real; there's just not much to expect, we hardly know the guy. We've only really seen him a handful of times.
>>141892275
It does seem weird that his cape is more reminicent of Uryuu's in HM, or the Sternritter now. I was kind of hoping he'd break out his old gear from the flashback with Masaki. We only ever got a tiny glimpse of it and it seemed kind of elaborate, and more like Uryuu's outfit when he fought Mayuri.

>3. Reveal herself as the right/left leg of the Soul King?
This is the most likely Kubo thing to happen

>>141889706
I think he inserts himself as is most convenient to the story he changes, and only as far as that specific story goes. Which is why the inconsistencies break the victim's minds.
When inserting himself into Orihime's backstory to become extremely relevant to her life, he becomes her brother. Because Sora is fundamental to her life up to that point, and he is convenient.
When inserting himself into Byakuya's Bankai, he becomes the one who developped it alongside Byakuya. There is no one to usurp as far as we know, thus he merely becomes a new aspect of that past. Specifically the training and what is relevant to it, not Byakuya's entire life.
When inserting himself into their battleground, he sets up traps as is convenient to his present location and fight. Since the area has no real history, his power is at its strongest there, making it full on reality warping.

>>141893163
>>141893142
Isshin has more of a bear thing going on, Ryuuken's totally a silver fox.

it's odd for a moment there after getting his powers back Uryuu went with a tiny little short bow like his dad used when he first showed up, but then when he joined the wandenreich he went back to long bow. I wonder what kind of bow Ryuuken will use this time.

I've seen this play out enough times in anime to know where it's going

So, Ywhach is just a very special fullbringer that was able to distribute his power, right?

>>141892754
You can't unless you use a godly weapon, like the mirror sword or the chains that binded Pernida. Otherwise you've to seal him. If any of the Shinigami has a way to kill Gerard, he would've used against Aizen, because the Hogyoku and Gerard's miracles work on the same principle.

>>141896417
He's just a very special Quincy with the ability to distribute powers and a connection to the Soul King.

Hopefully Ryuken will just be an insanely talented archer with the most powerful bow or whatever.
Isshin's bankai is probably monstrous though since he has to be in top shape to use it. We do know it's weaker than Zanka no Tachi, though.

He's just making sure that Ishida has a fair chance of winning the himebowl.

Even if Ichigo said "He will fight his own battles", I think having a friendly mini-Ywatch inside him will be instrumental in defeating the real Ywatch

It might look that way at first glace, but think about it, he's been fighting Hashwald, alone, from dusk till dawn, during this time Hashwald possessing Yhwach's powers failed to finish off Ishida, instead leaving him staggered, injured but very much alive.
Then after Yhwach awoke, Hashwald has still been unsuccessful in finishing a battered Ishida with his own strength despite being 2nd in command.
I think that says a lot for Ishida's endurance at least.

>>141906066
That says a lot about Kubo's narration. My man Chad is still fighting statues. I do agree Ishida in near the top players level by now.

Notice how Yhwach's power looks practically liquid. It's crashing over him like a wave.

She'll be his umbrella. Her shield will fully envelop him, protecting him from both the rain and Yhwach.

Actually Matusmoto is the most erotic Shinigami. The most beautiful is Unohana according to Kubo. Well with her dead, I guess it's now Rangiku.

There is the possibility that her connection to the Hogyoku might play some role or at least give her a power up.

There is no way that Isshin would ignore his son loosing and being in danger of getting killed by the guy who killed his wife.

How come Kubo decided to give Yoruichi a retarded looking cat transformation out of nowhere that's never been hinted at instead of just having her show off a bankai?

>>141912772

Of course, maybe down the line though.

>>141912772
I wouldn't say it's never been hinted at. Yoruichi was called bake-neko, which can roughly be translated as werecat, several times. We've already seen that achieving such transformations are possible with Komamura. Half the fandom expected Yoruichi to transform into a werecat hybrid, since we knew Yoruichi could transform into an animal since the very begining. We also knew that she has secret and unknown powers that are different from your usual Shinigami abilities.

>average blonde bimbo

Well that's just it. Rangiku isn't average for her character type. As a character we've seen her play both silly and serious which is rare for shonen to do for a secondary character. Then you have the fact that she's actually driven plot points forward despite being a character type usually only used for fanservice namely with her relationships with Gin and Isshin, or the whole deal with the hogyuoku. She also has the most distinct captain/vice-captain relationship with Hitsugaya where she isn't a protege to him or the fact that she's willing to disobey a direct order.

What I actually really like about her is that despite her usually bubbly and happy personality she's actually got a brooding side and doesn't like appearing vulnerable to other characters, often downplaying her true feelings, and the best part is that Gin is the only character to call her out on this.

Also she has the best facial reactions.

>>141915379
Just going to jump onto this post and say I really liked the teamwork that she and Hitsugaya displayed at the beginning of this arc; using Haineko to create vacuum pockets in Hitsugaya's ice barrier is definitely one of them most creative Shikai interactions we've seen and I wish there were more I could compare it to.

Aside from Ichibe, Yamamoto and Aizen, who has the most powerful Shikai?

This. That was really great, and it was disappointing that it didn't work, and that she isn't apparently around for the current fight.

I'll also add that it sucks that her relationship with Kyoraku wasn't shown more. They have like one scene at the end of the SS arc that wasn't even adapted into the anime.

>>141916243
Ichibe's. I don't recall it having a weakness either artificially made(Yamamoto) or inherently present(Aizen).

>>141916364
It sucks that relationships between captains in general weren't exploited more, if at all.
I would've liked to see, for example, Byakuya interact with Yamamoto, or Shunsui with Kenpachi, etc. We didn't get enough captain/captain interactions.

Hitsugaya is a prodigy so he can surpass her in terms of strength since she's not as talented nor is she hard working enough to make up for the talent difference.

However she is more experienced both as a Shinigami and as a person. Hitsugaya never forgets that he's her captain but their interactions are different from the interactions between Isshin and Rangiku. They have their own synergy that works.

>>141916723
>she's not as talented nor is she hard working
I actually want to contest this point with that Rangiku's laziness comes from a disinterest in bureaucracy and that she is actively aiming to be stronger and that she actually has some of the highest feats compared to the other vice-captains.

I've always felt that with his lack of experience Hitsugaya is probably among the weakest of captains but is made up for with Rangiku being one of the stronger vice-captains so much like his zanpaktou they have the smallest gap in power between them, compared to the other captains and their vice-captains.

I can buy most of that except I think you're overestimating her strength a little bit. Renji and Ikkaku and 1st division vice captain are stronger than Rangiku and I'd say Kira is about as strong if not a little stringer than her.

She does seem stronger than Hinamori or Isane or Nanao.

Saying that, I'm a Rukiafag myself but I actually really like Matsumoto as a character, she's interesting, funny and can be serious too, her up lifting speech to Inoue was heartwarming and I'd really like to learn more about her backstory.
And while my tastes usually pertain to more petite women, I can't deny that Rangiku has an absolutely great design.

Keep up the good taste.

She might not shine as much as some of the other characters in combat but her design and personality and interaction with the other characters make her fun. Plus Kubo uses her wisely and doesn't give us too much of Rangiku at the expense of other characters.

I honestly expected that we would get more fan service out of her.For some reason I had the feeling Kubo would overuse her in that way but he's judicious with it and spreads around the fan service responsibility well.

I wouldn't mind a little more Rangiku fan service though

I'm a little peeved Kubo seems to have forgotten about her as of late. You'd think she'd have shown up by now, not in any meaningful capacity, but even Ikkaku and Yumichika have had some passing appearances just to maintain that they're still there.

>>141930646
She got revived with Toshiro, so we know she's out there. With Isshin entering the fray, I think it's safe to say we'll see her relatively soon, even if its not until a lull in the combat.

>>141925709
[Ievan Polkka intensifies]

>>141930696
that's what I mean. the last we saw of her was her as a zombie doing nothing, her in the tube having been dezombified, and then her foot showing she was concious and following Hitsugaya. But nothing of substance and then the next time Hitsugaya showed up and then subsequently took center stage in the M fight there was neither hide nor hair of her. Not even a basic acknowledgement that she was there.

>>141930856
Oh yeah, there's definitely no logical reason she should be portrayed that way, its just Kubo being Kubo. At least she's getting treated better than Mashiro.

>>141930582
Yes.
It'll become revealed that Ichigo is the same as Ywach and the soul king, in that he can give his powers out to others. He's been giving his power to people from the start. Those three can see ghosts now because of Ichigo.
They'll arrive because the only way for Ichigo to beat Ywach is if he gains some of the power he's lent others back.
Which means all his earth friends will lose all their power, but Ichigo will gain it. But to do that, they need to be in soul society, that's why they have tickets.
That, and because Ichigo will be asked to stay as the new soul king due to his power.

so what is Ichigos final form going to look like? will we get a mix of his hollow form and final getsuga tensho or something more like a quincy?

Which irrelevant character influenced by ichigos reiatsu will come to save the day this arch? Yuzu? Karin? Tatsuki? Konanji? Or did the afro guy get an op bankai?

>>141941630
Of course he does.
Just like Hisagi and Yumichika.

>>141941959
Karin will become a shinigami. She got trained by Urahara and achieved bankai in three days.

Are you sure? Are you positive that this guy that shows up constantly won't reach bankai and get some ridiculous power up like Za Warudo? Or just pure gravity manipulation?

I love Nel. I want her to dominate me and rape me.

>>141942473
Nel is for cute, affectionate, pure love. Be gentle, you never know when that time limit runs out on the adult form.

>>141942152
>Za Warudo
A bankai on that level of broken would only be used by someone like Aizen.
>pure gravity manipulation
That's going to be Kira.

>>141942733
>Gravity manipulation for Kira

But that's not really what his powers are for. If he had a bankai it'd need to relate to the execution theme his shikai establishes.

>>141942733
We'll what's his shikai do again? Earthquake/fissures?

>>141942810
>execution theme
Some kind of one-hit kill like his former captain? That would be nice. Kubo mentioned that Kira's bankai would be "nauseating" so there's that

>>141942826
Kira doubles the weight of whatever his sword strikes. When the enemy's too heavy to stand, he decapitates him with his hook-shaped sword

>>141942810
>If he had a bankai it'd need to relate to the execution theme his shikai establishes.
I like your style. If I were Kubo I'd go with the obvious route the other Anon mentioned with gravity manipulation, probably an AoE sort of bankai.

But I think I like this idea better. What would it look like? Maybe modeled after a guillotine with some sort of wooden restraints and a big heavy blade?

Yes, Nel is great. It would be a shame if she didn't get at least one good battle moment before the series ended.

What I like about Nel is that even though she looks great in the revealing rags I think she looks better in her original costume where she's more covered up. Kubo is good at making his female characters look good without having to flash skin even though he clearly isn't opposed to revealing outfits.

>>141942891
>AoE
It would be pretty similar to Shunsui's bankai, then. An AoE type made for killing, probably with a dark theme as well.

>guillotine
I'm sure there's a way to combine Wabisuke's weight-manipulating powers with something like that. Like increasing the "weight" of the opponent's sins, killing them when they become too heavy (sort of like http://jojo.wikia.com/wiki/The_Lock)

Same. But if I'm being honest I'd rather he'd died at the start of this battle. He isn't a very plot relevant character.

>>141942850
No I know kiras, I'm talking about afro-san. His shikai is like a fist type that when you slam it into the ground it causes earthquakes that raise spikes.

>>141943058
I used to headcanon his bankai would be to cover the area in a black mist, and anyone that was exposed to it would be weighed down in proportion to how many lives, innocent or guilty, they've taken. Kira himself would be dressed in a black executioners garb, slowly wandering through the mist, and when he finds someone a guillotine appears to finish them. Way to OP though.

>>141943134
That would've been a little too anti-climactic for me but I do see what you're saying. If he had a good battle early on I think he could've been killed off

>>141943157
Oh, right. He's probably never going to get a bankai, but if he does, I'm guessing it could be like the non-canon Kenpachi Kuruyashiki's bankai, a ground-based attack with massive range and virtually unavoidable.

>>141943187
Yeah, that's way too overpowered. Such a bankai would allow him to take on Yamamoto pretty easily.

>>141932440
He doesn't just appear, he takes on Jugram and is countered. And Isshin like the great father we know he is, fucking disappears.
At least it's better than the netabare ones where Isshin blows off Ichigo and then Ichigo gets his arm blown off by Yhwach.

I hope Kubo does a slice of life after Bleach ends.
Character creation and character interactions are what he's best at. Moreover he'd be able to draw as much fashion as he wants.

I don't think that would show much fashion, unless we follow Rangiku shopping.
