    Uh... Aizen getting stomped... something seems to be wrong here! All his facial expressions are especially wierd in this chapter, pretty much surprised the whole time since page 3, not something we've seen before (and also makes me skeptical if the attack has even scratched him, even though it seems quite legit).

    Chapters up on Onemanga btw.

    Well, I'm sure that the last attack at least missed. Curb-stomping Aizen just doesn't happen this quickly if ever.

    The Kyoraku strike was probably legit as it came in such a quick succession, but then he would, at least, have moved away and left a clone of himself there.

    If Aizen has his own hollow, wouldn't it be amusing if it's deliberately fucking him up to gain control?

    That said, I'm just waiting on the big reveal that this Aizen is a fake. He's just been hit way too easily, and his expressions feel utterly wrong.

    The only doubts I have is that Ichigo never saw his shikai and shouldn't be under hypnosis, unless they were wrong and he did see it back in Soul Society.

    Aizen could potentially being using a gigai like devise like Urahara used in a few chapters back. Especially since Aizen deeply researched into Urahara's notes/ past, in order to find the Hogyoko.

    LOL. The new bleach chapter was again quite a curb-stomp. But at least it was somewhat unpredictable. And it seems that one annoyance character is going to die at last.

    There is no other word for that mind fuck than 'epic'. I mean, he couldn't have picked a better person to use as the switch than her, especially since Hitsugaya landed the fatal blow.

    Blame it on my enjoying the Bleach characters' suffering, but yeah, I liked this chapter.

    That was fucking awesome. While I was expecting something like they showed at the beginning of the chapter, with Aizen wrapping his hand around the sword, I was expecting him to push it out and have it heal instantly or something with a comment of "Is that all?".

    I was NOT expecting the switch with Momo. And Aizen destroying arguably all of the strongest there is certainly better than I expected. However, it's exceptionally easy to predict what's going to happen next. Ichigo and Aizen are going to start fighting, and then right when it looks like Ichigo is about to die, Yoruichi, Kisuke, and Tessei are going to show up and save the day.

    And maybe throw in Isshin as well, though that one isn't as certain.

    Loved the mind fuck, but I have to wonder, did Ichigo see that the whole time and not mention it until Momo was stabbed, or is he less immune than everyone thought? Or is there another explanation I am not noticing?

    I knew it, and yet I was still fooled by it. Everyone knew it. What I wonder is, where is the old man at? Did he not attack Aizen for fear of this very tactic or what?



    I doubt Isshin would get involved without dragging Ryuken into the mix as well. Show Aizen what the true last Quincy can do.

    On the note of Ichigo, he's got a strong probability of being screwed. Either A. Somewhere after he arrived Aizen released his zanpakutou and now Ichigo is susceptible to hypnosis, or B. Aizen had it on release from his first appearance in FKT, so Ichigo is still susceptible to hypnosis.

    Well, while I fully expected something to happen to leave Aizen unharmed, I was still pretty surprised by the fact that it was Hinamori getting impaled, if nothing else.

    At least Kubo's not completely predictable. :?

    Keep in mind that this all happened over the span of a few seconds.

    Indeed, and Ichigo's reaction proves that he did see the switch...what I'm not clear on though is when the switch happened. It had to be after his exchange with the Vizards - Love, Rose and Lisa, was it? - 'cuz Ichigo seems awestruck by the ease with which Aizen collared them. So was it after Soifon's attack?

    How could you guys not see this coming given that his ability is (absolute) hypnosis and they keep talking about it? It's a total cop out. However it's a nice touch that Hinamori gets stabbed. I doubt she will die since females in Bleach (especially innocent ones) don't tend to die.

    I'm gettin fed the fuck up of Aizen pulling all this shit outa his ass. An arrancar made solely to counter Yama-jii? We get that he planned this whole thing >9000 moves in advance, but DAYUM, this is getting redic!

    All I can say is, what the fuck. The last we heard of Wonderweiss, he was off getting his face smashed in by Kensuke. What the hell happened?

    As for Yama-jii, wasn't he supposed to be like the biggest badass in Soul Society? If anyone can do toe-to-toe with Aizen, it's him, but what the fuck is this shit about Wonderweiss being a Reiatsu version of Samehada?

    Fuck man. At least One Piece is still good.

    I think it is rather presumptuous to assume that just by removing his zanpakuto that he will be an easy person to take out in a fight. Seriously, the old man probably has a hell of a lot more up his sleeve than that.
