Well of course you can skip those…they’re anime filler (not particularly good ones at that).
Long story short of Xcution arc, Ichigo gets powers back against enemy that’s great at mindfucking you, his friends are still jobbers, Kenny and Byakuya were bosses. The end.
yeah that Bounto arc… this was one of my first long & ongoing animes (aka more than 50-60 episodes), and as I did not read Bleach manga, I actually though its part of the anime, especially when hollow ichigo appeared against that metal-spider bounto summon shit… after I finished watching it… damn it was so dull. Compared Bounto vs Muramasa arc, it was like "from zero to hero and then back to zero in Fullbring arc (lol it took me almost 10minutes until “fullbring” came to my mind) muramasa arc at least has many awesome moments, like byakuya x kenpachi, kenpachi pwning 2 (or 3 it was?) true form zanpakuto at once, then fight in the cave starring Kenpachi again, there was a lot of Kenpachi stuff and maybe thats why I liked it somehow, but Ichigo’s final fight was dull crap… I wonder what will be in newest chapter this week.
And of course, Kenpachi it is beaten offscreen , that worf effect, ha.
.
I like how everyone is putting themselves together when the watch the CC entering the battle, of course knowing kubo, we probably would have a good battle ahead, but in the end the CC would be dead, which would hit hardly the moral of all the shinigamis.
it was expected…we all knew kenpachi was going to get dropped. Skip the foreplay. Just be happy he got his shine…no matter how brief it was.
time for the main event
Jees when Bleach is bad its bad but when Bleach is good its really good.
Seeing CC go crazy was so fukkin awesome!! You know the off panel Kenpachi aint that bad would we really wanna see Ken get jobbed? Hells no not me. This keeps him as strong as ever he went toe to toe with Juha to establish just how beastly Juha is.
We might actually shit bricks when Juha solos CC.
Now that’s how you sale a boss and introduce royal guard.
Kubo aint that sick lol.
The worse part about the chapter was that it was over in a flash fukkin manga!!
Joshkaz is right, next chapter wil lbe Ichigo breaking the bubble. We’ll get a sneak peak of the SS fights the following chapter, then the following chapter we’ll prolly drop down to HM.
This.
When I first read this chapter I was like WTF but now that I think about it it was the best way to do it. As much as everyone in here likes Kenpachi I don’t think anyone thinks he could beat the old man in a fight, so if you saw him fight kenpachi it would just be weird to watch kenpachi get his ass kicked. If you want to put a new enemy on the Captain Commander’s level they would also need to be able to body Kenpachi for free, but does anyone really want to watch that?
Doing it this way doesn’t take anything away from Kenpachi because you already knew he couldn’t beat Yama jeezy in a fight so if this guy is just as strong so he didn’t really have a chance.
