TRUE, that why grimmjow nel and tier will carry the fight vs YUHABAHA

So I'm assuming the final episode is entirely aftermath and timeskip epilogue and I've heard it'll be like an hour long.

But what about the prior episode? We're setting up human world and Hueco Mundo scenes, Komamura involvement, people want Ishin, Ryuken and Aizen involvement too. How is that all gonna be fit into a 20 minute episode?

He was expecting them to have more potential. Like maybe what Ulquiorra showed with his 2nd awakening.
It was just an experiment. Didn't really work out so he made other plans.

Also, he's the one who "awakened" their powers. So he just expected them to show more. It's not like he could know how much potential they have beforehand.
Instead, Harribel was struggling with what he regarded as mid-tier opponents. That wasn't acceptable to him, so he got rid of her, or at least he thought he did.
>>
>>290975326
The Espada were just fucking horrible in general. Kubo hyped them up, realized he didn't give a fuck, then killed them off for more Aizen wank. Basically Kubo wrote himself into a corner because he forgot he had to jerk off Aizen so the Espada barely got to do lasting damage.
>>
>>290975853
That's definitely the dumbest part of all of it. Ulq was beefing with masked bankai ichigo even before releasing his load, yet fucking released Harribel can't fucking oneshot Gayman? Other than Kubo just being shit, the only other explanation is that base Ulq got way stronger and Aizen was just too lazy to promote him and get everyone new tattoos.

wasn't ichigo nerfed and weaker than his SS self even while masked until white fully took over?
>>
>>290975891
Kubo has said the numbers weren't about just pure Power levels. They definitely seemed like they were in the manga but it's conceivable that #4 who's been holding back is stronger than #3.
Harribel was also supposed to have a bad matchup against ice powers although she still obviously under performs.
Anyway, that's why Aizen disposes of her, she just wasn't good enough.

They aren't even the top 3, they are the from 4th to 2nd because Kubo made Yammy, the strongest and worst of all Espadas by far. Hell the fake Karakura trio may even be 5th to 3rd because Ulquiorra had a secret form whose power exists in a limbo we will never be able to properly measure. Is his secret power up enough to surpass Harribel? Probably. Barragan? Perhaps I guess? Starrk? Maybe, we can't fucking now. Yammy? Dude who the fuck cares, Ulquiorra, Grimmjow and perhaps Nnoitra are the only ones that mattered, everyone else was a jobber

Arrancar arc Ichigo was triple nerfed, it's the only reason the arrancar seemed impressive at first
>nerfed because his quincy side is faking being his shinigami powers and cockblocking the real Zangetsu
>nerfed because he was scared the real Zangetsu would come and kill someone. He got better, then Zangetsu took over and he started to fear again, he couldn't even use his real final mask
>nerfed because his deputy badge was being used to absorb his power
Just look at Byakuya and Zaraki. Zaraki has the excuse of nerfing himself but he and Byakuya fought each other and Yammy, the strongest Espada at same time, and left Hueco Mundo thinking the guy was boring.

Definately. He would've been more composed and experienced to deal with Ulqiorra compared to Ichigo and his constantly fluctuating spiritual pressure and he has the speed to not be put off by Ulq too
>>
>>290977683
>his quincy side is faking being his shinigami powers
It's been more than a decade, and people still bear these misconceptions and will die on the hill.
>nerfed because his deputy badge was being used to absorb his power
Given the context, the badge shouldn't absorbe any significant of Reiatsu, just enough for analysis.
>>
>>290977748

>>290978030
are the shibas basically the seireitei equivalent of white trash or hillbillies?
>>
>>290978058
Barragan is actually a fun fight because it takes some real specific bullshit to defeat him. Probably the only good fight of that section of the manga. It should have been bullshit for all three of them.
>>
>>290978018
>its cause his fight is presented like the big serious main event so that makes a bigger impact on people subconciously

With the build-up and the displays of power, it's really hard to see it as "actually Ichigo with his mask still wasn't as strong as when he fought Byakuya on average, and only somewhat stronger in Hollowized form".
>>
>>290978105
Yeah, the fight is decent, but it makes the #2 Espada look unimpressive. Really, ranking the Espada by power level was a mistake. That got dropped for the Sternritter. Although the elite were clearly stronger, that was justified by how all of them had completely bullshit abilities.
>>
>>290978058
Soifon was getting bossed around by Barragan and had no answer to him until Hacchi came around. Honestly if the whole you have to match the reiatsu for the hax to work rule was consistent and didn't only exist to cuck soifon Hacchi shouldn't have even been able to teleport that arm inside of Barragan. Hacchi is probably the only one present in fake karakura that could've realistically take him out

Yeah because contrary to /a/'s retarded narrative Hitsugaya is strong. Just because he lost to Aizen in the SS arc doesn't mean he's weak.

Instead of wasting time on the Espada, would Aizen have benefited more from hollowfiying Gin? A Hollow Gin would likely be stronger than all the Espada combined.

Yamma and Shunsui are the only one that have anything for him and shunsui would have to use bankai. I guess Ukitake's shikai could probably redirect respira to him if its uneffected by it
>>
>>290975326
I still believe Wonderweiss was the strongest hollow under Aizen's command. My evidence is Wonderweiss being able to safely absorb Yamamoto's fire and safely contain the fire inside his body without immediately turning into ashes. Also, Wonderweiss managed to outspeed Ukitate and stuck his entire arm in Ukitake's back.

Maybe Aizen should have allowed Wonderweiss to keep his intelligence while Yammy should have been the one to lose his intelligence, since Wonderweiss would be an even bigger threat if he kept his IQ and giant monsters like Yammy don't need IQ at all.
>>
>>290978599
He was specialized to absorb the fire, so I think he was just top 5 material with the ability to think severed in replace of absorbing the fire.
>>
>>290978499
>Instead of wasting time on the Espada, would Aizen have benefited more from hollowfiying Gin? A Hollow Gin would likely be stronger than all the Espada combined.

Aizen may not have wanted to do that...
>>
>>290978599
>Maybe Aizen should have allowed Wonderweiss to keep his intelligence
He couldn't. Wonderweiss is the strongest precisely because his intellect was sacrificed in favour of strength.

Thankfully that will never change. We are explicitly told he was faking being Ichigo's shinigami power
And no, Ichigo accepting him as another Zangetsu because he's also a power of his doesn't make him shinigami power.

Souls with huge Reiryoku are very durable and can survive severe injuries if medical help is provided in a short notice.
The first invasion ended relatively quick after Byakuya recieved his critical injuries, and he fas able to recieve care. I don't think that specific healer was ever specified, but given Byakuya's position and severity of injuries, Unohana herself tried to heal him. Regardless, even her skills were not enough, and Byakuya needed to be healed by Tenjirou.

It doesn't matter. When it comes to the military, only the commanders are court marshalled, only those who give orders. Because according to military regulations subordinates lack agency, they follow orders which they can't disobey. Eagerness to follow the orders in most cases is not a factor.

Aside from trolling everyone, including the Arrancar themselves, Aizen was going off of the reports Soul Society had regarding Vasto Lordes. It turns out Soul Society had either underestimated itself or greatly overestimated Vasto Lordes. The Arrancar also just got totally outfought and swept, so even if Aizen expect them to lose and just be guinea pigs, they were pretty lousy. Aizen's greatest asset was just sweeping everyone himself, which he proceeded to do.

>>290975891

The numbers were basically all fake and Aizen used them to troll the Arrancar while throwing up red herrings for Soul Society.

I don't think that's the case, and the evaluation was valid.
The relative strength is likely estimated by Reiryoku, and we know that raw power doesn't necesseraly equate to victory, unless the gap is too vast. Vasto Lorde (and the Arrcncar, by extention) are nerfed by their own hubris.
On top of that, "captain-level" is not a measure of top-level. Iba is captain-level. And if we go by the Reishi-class system introduced in the one-shot, classes 1, 2 and 3 fall under "captain-level".
So the phrase "Vasto Lorde are more powerful than captain-level Shinigami" actually means "On average, Vasto Lorde are stronger than Iba".

There's dialogue saying that it'd only take a few Vasto Lordes to defeat all of Soul Society. Aizen had them all and they got swept. They didn't kill a single person and the only reason they destroyed a pillar was because Ikkaku sabotaged himself. Aizen didn't even need to bother with destroying the rest of the pillars to boot.

This doesn't answer the question.
1. Vasto Lorde is a class of Hollows, not Arrancar.
2. Grimmjow was an Adjucas.
>>
>>290980662
>Shinigami powers.
Are they? Resurrection is just unleashing their Hollow powers; their swords are nothing like Shinigami ones, with spirits and bankai.
>>
>>290980697
>There's dialogue saying that it'd only take a few Vasto Lordes to defeat all of Soul Society.
This is a correct estimation, Toushiro elaborates why:
>Vasto Lorde are generally stronger than a captain-level SHinigami
>Vasto Lorde turned Arrancar should be stronger
>There are ten captains left at the time
>Ten Vasto Lorde Arrancar would be enough to defeat Soul Society (as most Shinigami are useless fodder).
>They didn't kill a single person
Defeat doesn't mean death unless you're retarded like Grimmjow
And again, general estimation doesn't account for abilities, hax and personalities. Arrancar nerfed themselves with hubris.
On top of that, half the Espada were Adjucas, not Vasto Lorde (some were even Gillian).
>>
>>290980795
Obviously "defeat Soul Society" means killing everyone important, destroying the civilization, and ruining everything. The Vasto Lordes were said to be capable of that even before they got augmented by Aizen, and Aizen even rounded up and augmented every other Hollow of note to be their minions to boot. However, once the fighting actually started, the Vasto Lordes instead couldn't even kill someone middling. Soul Society didn't even need waves of mooks, Hueco Mundo's best got swept. Even if Aizen expected Soul Society to defeat the Hollows, the fact that the Hollows lost so thoroughly would understandably disappoint him nonetheless.
>>
>>290980763
It's explicitly stated by the manga and supplemental materials that the Arrancar gain shinigami powers, just like Visored gian Hollow powers.
They get Shinigami-like abilities,human-like appearance and a sword (that despite lacking its primary function and having a different nature, is still callez Zanpakutou). The Numeros are still a result of the experiments to tear down the barrier between a Hollow and a Shinigami, but from the other side.
>their swords are nothing like Shinigami ones, with spirits and bankai.
Just like Visored masks have nothing to do with being formed from the heart they're jsut an attribute.
>>
>>290980836
Can they develop a Bankai then? Considering how powerful names are, their swords could become more than vessels for their Hollow forms.

Be my "defeating is not necessary killing" remark I meant not the defeat of the entirety of Soul Society, but what the managed to achieve in the series. And there were defeats, most notably the aforementioned Ikkaku.
And again, there are only three confirmed Arrancar that were Vasto Lorde: Stark, Barragan and Harribel, The rest were Adjucas or Gillian. While Toushirou's estimate was based on on "couple Vasto Lorde", but "Ten Vasto Lorde"

As their swords are only Zanpakutou in form and they lack Zanpakutou spirit, they can't have Bankai by definition. But they can develop a second release of their own, and there was an example of it in Ulquiorra.

Hitsugaya obviously meant that a couple of Vasto Lorde could kill everyone in Soul Society, /a/non. He didn't mean that they might swat Ikkaku's foolish ass to the side and destroy a pillar. His estimation of roughly 10 Vasto Lorde has to then account for the boosts Aizen gave them, as well as the boosts to other Hollows that probably put them at the level of unmodified Vasto Lordes. The Arrancar got swept hard.

And it has. It literally has. First of all, it's not "roughly 10", it's "over 10". Second, Toushirou does speak there of Vasto Lorde after they become Arrancar: the entire ddialouge is about the danger of Arrancar, Toushirou accounts for mask-tearing buffs. When he says この『ヴァストローデ』級, he speaks of what he described in a previous ssentenceL those who are stronger than their Menos Grande selves. It's lost in translation because Bleach Translation is always shit.
>>
>>290981151
Not having a mouth is not a sign of a Vasto Lorde. Plus, if we to interpret this bonus chapter not as Ulquiorra literally being born from a pit, but a single mind among countless souls withing a Gillian taking control, it depicts Ulquiorra's Adjucas transformation.

Well, I'm pretty sure that it doesn't have such infro. Ulquiorra being a "Primoridal Vasto Lorde" being born from a pit is an interpretation of the small bonus chapter published in that databook. And it couldn't have any information about this happening for the first time since the Primordial world because the entire concept of there even being a Primordial world first appeared in the novels.
>>
>>290981609
The only alternative interpretation is Ulquiorra is even more unique as a hollow by violating one of the biggest rules of being a hollow - the need to eat. Or that somehow a different personality took over when the adjuchas evolved into a vasto lorde.

And while the novels are dubiously canon, I do think most of the ideas within are definitely in the realm of canon as nonsensical as that sounds. It's still a lot of Kubo's thoughts and notes forming the basis of the book, after all.
>>
>>290981521
Unless you take the entire thing metaphorically.
All the dark shapes had eyese and mouths with teeth and were beastly, while only Ulquiorra had only eyes, and therefore was able to prevail in his transformation by having a stronger mind.

While I agree with this sentiment (but I wouldn't say "most", but "some"), trying to search for crumbs of actual canon ideas (espceially after the anime took these ideas and developed them in completely different way) is a fool's errand.

No. Why are you assuming that Ulquiorra was a Vasto Lorde?

His appearance also is not an argument, he was just as humanoid as Shawlong.

Rukia, Soifon and even Riruka are characters that will never be acknowledged under the umbrella like tatsumaki or frieren because people who performatively hate on lolicons like them and admitting they fall under the umbrella would call for self reflection and the commitment to own up to their beliefs and stop finding the characters attractive if they did

But again, we have at least one another example of a Menos Grande with no visible mouth on hios mask: Shawlong. So this shouldn't be something unique, but (I suspect) rather a sign of a sophisticated mind. And I doubt very much taht Shawlong was hindered in any way in his feeding habits.

The espada are overhyped, they were always jobbers.
Most of them were never captain level.
The lowest espada were struggling against lieutenants.
The rest up to Nnoitra were lower than a mildly serious kenpachi using two hands.
Ichijobber made ulquiorra look strong, that's it.
Hallibel, Barragan and Starrk all 3 dropped like flies once they fought real opponents.
Starrk lost to a shikai.
Even Aizen BTFO Hallibel because she was worthless.
Yammy at rank 0 got destroyed by two captains without much effort.
The espada were never that impressive.

To be fair, and I hate this too, whenever they say someone or something is "captain-level" or "captain-class", they're referring to both captains and vice captains.

I never inmterpreted in like this (just that some lieutenants are strong enough to qualify as a captain), but you might be right, as lieutentnts are actually vice captains.
However, when Toushirou speaks about the strength of Menos Grande and Arrancar, he specifically counts only captains.

BOTH Ichigo and Orihime embodied humanity, and made Ulquiorra more human. It's Ichigo who gets the strongest reaction out of Ulquiorra, and makes him use Segunda Etapa because he won't give up. Then after his Hollowfication that shattered Ulquiorra's binary view of humanity of and Hollow, he demands a fair match at his own expense and refuses to finish off Ulquiorra or even accept his win. This is why Ulquiorra says in the end he's become more interested in BOTH of them.
>The duel was romantized like a gothic monster, victorian heroine, and the hero vibes but shounen.

The poem is literally about the same thing. Ulquiorra's hidden desire to be more like Orihime and Ichigo. It's why he gets angry when Ichigo wonders if he's become more like a human, because it's true, and he won't accept it. It's also why he rejects Orihime's honorific in the backstory, because he doesn't want to be treated like a human by her.

Oberon is a boy (eldericth gigantic, abyssal worm that can consume the planet, voracious pitfall where everything eventually falls for eternity).

He's probably one of the smartest antagonists Nasu wrote, if not the smartest. Even when you read thinking he's sus, you can't help but trust him, he's that good in how genuine he acts.

It's technically a doomsday device larping as her uncle larping as oberon.
He's not exactly Vortigern, but he would have manifested as the White Dragon because the Mors King got called Vortigern if the forest bug fae didn't associate him with Oberon and got fucked up.

When I said vs is them manipulating some poor retards like chess pieces on a board. Not pew pew fights. I think it's far more interesting to read about that.

Paraguay lost ~90% of its male population on the Triple Alliance War

>>290984375
they lost a war with their neighbors in the 1800s that resulted in an insane death toll due to the fighting and economic effects like famine. killed something like 60% of the population and a much higher percentage of men

I hope Orihime shows up at least a little bit in Episode 49.
>>
>>290984964
She'll show up plenty in episode 50.
>>
>>290976282
She was a chain smoking champion who stopped because the dude who beat her started cutting back because he was getting concerned that she'll run out of money to buy cigs

Why have one when you can have both? It really depends on what they focus on in Episode 50.
>>
What if the delay gets delayed?
>>
>>290985013
That would be good because that would mean the next two episodes are that much better. Also, added content.

He was defeated by a plot device. We can see from his earlier uses of Respira that the substance emanates from the surface area of his body, which would mean even the bones facing the empty space in his rib cage. Teleporting the arm into the empty space thus wouldn't make the Respira do anything, because it's already in contact with those areas when it's created in the first place.

With one arm? He was useless, he even got beat up by Shinji after that.

He jobs pathetically because his only actually dangerous ability is breathing close to you, which is completely useless against fast and strong characters. Yamamoto would appear behind him and scorch him to ashes before he can even open his mouth.

The Barragan gimmick reminds me of how Kubo did the same thing later on with the literal safe space Byakuya has when using Senbonzakura. But that at least wasn't contradicted by prior depictions.
