Bleach Thread 5.0 - MANGA IS FINISHED! Announcement is a Bleach live action movie lmao

I am strangely turned on… yeah it’s not scary faced enough, but whatever

Man the chapters getting good and no anime :/.

Sent from Hueco Mundo using Garganta Talk.

Best they wait for Bleach to finish before continuing the anime.

“You’ve really got verbal diarrhea.” I was like OOO SSNNAAAAP SIIISSSTER!!!

That murderous look on her face was really erotic, prrrrr!

Thats a good thing. We would be in filler episodes by now.

It looks like…

Unohana: You sure are talkative today. You’re usually a lot quieter. I like it better that way. Why? Whenever I hear your voice, I’m unable to surpress the throbbing pain within me.
Kenpachi: I’ll tell you sister, it ain’t just you. Works both ways - you ain’t the only one who can’t hold back the throbbing!

Neither character refers to a scar directly in what they say, nor who gave it to them. Japanese can be extremely ambiguous like that. However it does imply that they gave it to each other. Again, all just implication, nothing explicitly said.

THEN THEY HAVE SEX

I don’t even know why this is even an issue. I thought it was clear that they gave each other those scars. They just don’t explicitly say it, and they shouldn’t have to. We got enough hints. Why else would they mention their scars to each other?

Here’s a questions…what the hell was stopping these two from going at it all these years until now?

Yama.

Yama didn’t care about Byakuya and Kenny going at it in HM but he was holding these two back. They were in HM at the same time too. I mean, I know they were in mid-war, but Kenny has never given a shit about that and from the looks of it I doubt Unohana cared either. I mean, the potential collateral damage can’t be THAT high can it?

(Yeah, we’d probably be on “Karin’s shinigami in training adventures with guest cameos by Hitsugaya!” filler by now. That or “something only Ichigo can stop shows up again!” filler.

…Shit. I actually kind of want to see the former now…)

…This chapter was…actually rathergreat. I was going to come in here before the break and tell Sanford specifically that I couldn’t get hype for Unohana knowing that Kubo will fuck it up somehow. Then last chapter turned out to be so stereotypical as to be sponsored by BET, so I just said “fuck it” and waited for the Golden Week stuff to end.

But this chapter actually got me…hyped, even if it’s kinda fucked up narratively, partly for reasons that Ragnorok pointed out. Azrael’s post has me wondering what the fuck Unohana could have done to be worse than Aizen or even just Mayuri though.

Also, speaking of Dark Phoenix’s stereotypical-ness, I do find it darkly hilarious that in his brief cameo this chapter he’s essentially presented as a keeper of would-be-slaves who are usually mistreated by their shinigami masters. Well, that and the “he acts like a materialistic, foolish pimp to overcompensate for growing up dirt poor” from last was pretty much Truth in Television Manga.

(Also, I realized something: If “talking backward” is so swag in Japanese, then he probably didn’t say anything when Zero Squadron arrived since he was busy fangirling over Shinji, Swaggest Motherfucker in Existence, in the background.)

Haha. It’s even funnier when you think realize Unohana is basically the closest thing Zaraki has to a “love” interest since she’s only person besides maybe Yamamoto or his subordinates that he’s canonically confirmed to respect. So this is basically a reversal/an inversion of the whole “Brainwashed & Crazy”/“I Know You’re In There Somewhere Fight” thing with him having/getting to finally fight her true personality.

I’ll lol if the “death” thing ends up being that she gets truly gets domesticated because the “True” Kenpachi surpasses her, which would be along the lines of the “Get Back in the Kitchen” powers Kubo decided to give Hikifune, who is still the only confirmed female member of Zero Squadron at present.

I’ll laugh harder if Unohana kills his ass and then has to revive him though.

Hey, someone else here reads Shortpacked (or Dumbing of Age). Good to know.

And no one would think you’re trying to turn into Willis unless every time you posted, you started to post male-on-male pictures of Bleach…that you drew.

Lol. You say that like it’s surprising when this is the same Gotei 13 that still currently employs Mayuri, who is basically Spirit Josef Mengele for what he did to the Quincy. Seriously, Mayuri was never even punished for needlessly blowing up his own underlings for no reason despite the fact that it’s still implied that basically everyone else under him still has bombs in them.

There’s a reason a bunch of people see the Gotei 13 as a “lesser evil” than as out-and-out “good guys” and even the “lesser” part is arguable, to the point where some people had valid arguments that Aizen was the actual good guy. (At least before it was revealed about what he did to Wonderweiss and what he did to Momo during the Winter War.)

Edits of what, out of curiosity?

Nah. This seems to be under the execution site, while Aizen seems like he was/is imprisoned underneath the first Squadron’s HQ. Or, at least, what was the first Squadron’s HQ before Bach blew it the fuck up before he effortlessly (disem)bodied Old Man Genocide. I think the two places are relatively close to each other, but not exactly the same place.

If they are part of the same place, then Aizen’s above them given how “far down” they supposedly are. Like Muff said, Unohana & Kenpachi are so “bad” they’re under the jail.

Same here.

Meh. I’m pretty jaded with most “eye scream”/eye-based horror stuff and, personally, I was way more interested that Kubo was finally fleshing out a central concept of his ill-defined universe after a decade.

What movie is that from though?

I really hope so, but again kubo is not interested on making romance so fuck it >:(

I’m still thinking Unohana was the 1st Kenny and stepped down at Yama’s say so… and every other Kenny has been killed by there replacement. So imho, our Kenny is not a junior or even the 3rd… because the tradition of “death match kenny succession” would need there to be more than two ever.

If Kenny gave her the scar, but got his position/name from “Killing the previous Kenny”… (iirc there’s even a guy that wants revenge about it) then why was it a big reveal (in manga) that she was the 1st Kenpachi?

Did they cross blades when he killed her successor? Did he break her 1st (flashback) sword? (Or did the revenge seeking shinigami serve under a sadistic capt.mom?)

Could our Kenpachi be holding the 1st Kenpachi’s original (Yachiru’s discarded) zanpakuto?

Could Yachiru be Retsu Unohana’s discarded/forgotten zanpakuto (since she went medic) found buy our Kenny in Kusajishi? It would be rather poetic for the sword’s soul to be named after its’ former user. Even more so given the nature of their meeting, Unohana’s description of Kenny, and the flow of this chapter.

I just realized there may be a reason why these two fights are going on at the same time. Well played Kubo, well played.

I like how no one noticed how Yachiru magically disappeared? or is it that Yachiru and Unohana somehow have a connection and the fact she disappeared finally released Unohana’s true personnality somehow?

It’s not a magical disappearance. If I’m not mistaken she hasn’t been seen since the timeskip. Something happened.

She was there before the invasion started, she also was there with Ken when they went to give Ichigo his power back

The last time she appeared was on chapter 489

Oh, never mind then. Didn’t even remember.

But I still wouldn’t call it a magical disappearance. There’s a reason they put these two at the bottom of their desolate prison.

Isn’t that where Ichigo trained to get FGT?
