    Let me remind you: Bleach has ten years left in it assuming Kubo hasn't changed his mind recently. Are you sure you want to read it until the end?

    First, if you read my post you'd see that what I said was that I basically consider the series to be over already, and second, considering the recent low quality of the manga and it's place in the polls, Kubo won't get the chance to finish it anyway.

    Hahah, nah. The story's not over. Aizen's not dead, he's sealed. It's pretty blatantly obvious that- publishers permitting- he'll be coming back. Those seals are always pretty much code for "we want him out of the manga for a little while, but will be bringing him back later."

    Titty Kubo should finish up Bleach and move onto hentai. It would be more interesting than what he has going at the moment.

    New Chapter

    Looks like another classic Kubo "2 pages of plot spread over 20 pages" chapter.

    Well it is supposed to be action. This is a fighting manga, after all.

    I've hated the last couple chapters, but this one actually felt.. alright. Seems like Kubo's starting to feel a bit of the heat.

    What a surprise, I am completely shocked, I never saw that one coming. :rolleyes:

    The real surprise would have been if he wasn't what he said to be in this chapter.

    Honestly by this point someone in Soul society must have noticed what was going on here with all the fighting of late. I'm just waiting for someone to come down and go the smack the bitches involved in this.

    I am not pleased with Ginjou. That was so predictable, I have no idea why Kubo thought it would be a good idea. Having Ginjou not betray Ichigo would have been much more interesting.

    Well it surprised me a little, because I thought that Kubo will want to surprise as with not making him an enemy. Seems I had to much expectations for him.

    It is something of a bad sign when the only way the author can surprise us is by hitting us with plots that are so predictable that we're shocked when he actually plays them straight instead of subverting them.

    I'm supposing this'll end up with Ichigo re-awakening Zangetsu. I only hope Ginjo doesn't turn around after all of this and declare that it was simply and act put on to get Ichigo his shinigami powers. That'd just be ridiculous but I wouldn't put it past Kubo.

    I was exceedingly happy to see Ichigo stabbed in the chest here. Lets hope he dies, and the series just transfers protagonists to Yamamoto, and the rest of the show is him disintegrating all his enemies.

    On topic, yeah. Ginjo's betrayal. I guess this means that Tsukishima wants to get rid of his powers, if he got Ginjo to start the process with Ichigo. Who didn't see the guy who chooses non-lethal attacks and a has a goofy sidekick not being evil?

    Just started the translation, will be sending it out after dinner.

    Although some people might have seen the events of this chapter coming...

    I have to say this:


    Kubo finally did something fucking right. I'm loving it.

    Someone over on /a/ pointed out that this chapter came out exactly ten years after the chapter in which Rukia first gave him his powers.

    Kubo - Just as Planned.

    Finally. For all I care they can have a two month battle now. It's time for Ichigo to kick some ass.
