I give zero fucks about the jobbers. If the next chapter has any of these clowns as the central story I’m going to avoid reading this shit for a few months until something important happens.
I still don’t get why the Sternritter are so wasteful with their subordinates. Aren’t Quincy humans? I can’t imagine they’d have high enough birth rates to be running through their numbers. Also it’d take 15-17 years before a replacement is combat ready.
Very nice change of pace for Bleach.
I do agree that Kubo gotta chill with showing me new people, especially lil hotties like those 4 girls. I still feel sorry for Ishida I want the free power up for him but his valkyrie plot is not gonna happen at all.
I wonder what are Chad and Inoue are doing? Good to see my boy Urahara up to no good lol.
Another chapter of nothing… Ishida better have a harem next chapter.
I feel that is not that bad that Kubo introduce more characters, after all how many people do we meet in real life? And how many of those people that we meet also have people that they know in their own circle?
In certain form it helps to flesh the characters more since it shows us how they interact with the people who they care and/or are around them in regular basics.
Yes for the purpose of the story they maybe are not relevant, but for establishing the characters they have a purpose imo.
And i ask again, why anyone would complain about new fap material??
Wow i swore when they showed that flying slime i thought i was ready a Dragon Quest chapter. Going with laser nipples on lesbo quincy or vagina sword maybe even a post op tranny.
I’m fine with introductions so long as they don’t contribute to unnecessary stretching. If they fight, I want them all to be one hit fodder…like Kenpachi swings his sword one time and all four blow up one after another.
Then he turns on bankai insert evil violent laugh
- :bluu:
Can’t keep introducing new characters (who are more than likely gonna die or face turn) when you can’t even develop the last pair of new characters…or the original batch of starting characters.
ain’t nothing wrong with new faces. But develop the shit ton of overloading cast you already have before adding more fodder.
chapter was ok. Again, all for new faces (dibs on Sternritter Z) but give us something worthwhile.
I’m liking the Quincy army more than the Fullbringers, the Espada (sans Neliel and Barragan) and the Shinigami.
So far I have enjoyed all their shenanigans since this arc started.
He needs to introduce more characters to make the training everyone is going through relevant. Think about the sheer number of people on soul society’s side training; I think theres over 20 people getting ready for this fight on that side alone.
Every remaining captain, Ichigo, Renji, Ishida, Chad, Orihime, The people from the filler arc; and thats still not including Ryuuken, Isshin, Urahara, Yoruichi, Grimmjow, Nel.
If you aren’t going to flesh out enough characters for all of these people to fight, or at least be needed, what was the point of going into training segments for each one?
And possibly the most critical thing with this overload is that it might allow Kubo room to have some of the Sternritters actually win their fights.
The Fullbringers arc really was just manga filler, huh? 
I actually liked a good bit of the Fullbring arc- problem is just that the ending was under-developed and reverted to the standard mid-tier fights jobber and wins formula that Bleach cycles through.
Book of the End or whatever it was called remains the most broken power ever placed on a jobber.
I liked the fullbringer arc. But it was obviously rushed and just used as a side quest for ichigo to gain his power (and to address that humans with fullbringer powers had a dealing with hollows via parents. Or down that route. It was just explained.)
also, I forgot to mention, since Ishida is the “last living quincy”, the hell is Ryuuken then? He still has his powers so is he THAT under the radar that Juha doesn’t know? How did he survive that full out quincy assault from Juha? Did I miss something?
No.
It seems like it but there was some important plot elements that will carry over to this arc. They are few but they exist.
Trollkishima isn’t a jobber and yes, book of the troll made the fullbringer arc.
Bait by Bach.
Ryuuken is the target. I told of this earlier and makes sense if you think about it.
Bach could be lying to Uryuu on the Holy Selection or Souken did some technique to protect his grandson from the process.
Or one last possibility: he’s actually dead and we just don’t know it yet.
Ryuuken was shown concurrently at the end of Isshin’s tale with his current design and he healed Uryuu at his hospital on the Fullbringer arc which was not so long ago in Bleach universe time.
Isshin would have mentioned it to Ichigo during his tale if that would have happened.
Ryuuken isn’t a Sasakibe type character. He does have value and if he dies it won’t be offscreen.
No, I mean- more than half the Bleach cast is technically dead and getting around just fine.
I’m just saying its conceivable that he died years ago, and that every time he’s been shown outside of flashbacks he’s been inhabiting an artificial body or some equivalent spirit hacks.
soooo the hospital he owns and runs and works at just so happens allow him to come and go even though he’s dead?
