>>291750651
Senjumaru has literally never done a single thing wrong as far we know, and Kisuke does questionable things but never cruel and always for what we can objectively say is best. Like yeah it's not nice to Yoruichi forcing her to fight almost naked and he was gonna destroy Rukia's career by turning her into a human, but those two were sacrifices for the universe itself.
Meanwhile Mayuri has random gadgets built from the bodies of people he experimented with, people who can still talk and feel and suffer for no reason other than Mayuri's personal amusement.

Anon it IS his original "shikai" (which isn't even a real shikai anyway). Ichigo's true bankai is using the shinigami zanpakuto as sheath for the quincy zanpakuto he uses as blade.
Why do you think Yhwach's premonition had SS/Arrancar arc Ichigo? Because it's the same Zangetsu, not something similar to it.

same logic applies to mayuri, when he offed the souls in rukongai. They are both the same in their goals but have slightly different approaches on how to achieve their goals. Also, Urahara has done more than what you said but it's pointless to start listing each one's "bad" actions.

>>291751299
>fanservice
it's not fanservice
it's about storyarcs. rukia's storyarc was CLOSED. unless they wrote up and set up earlier this, it would be fucked up. while he fits there because he was showed as the 'intro' shinigami of the new series.

anyway none of those people stabbing yhwah mattered as much as uryuu carrying everyone to beat him. because what truly destroyed the first quincy and ruler is the last one and successor. they were just sword grunts they could be interchangeable.

even jugram betrayed yhwach and made this possible because of his fight with uryuu. was his story featuring the rest.

yeah he failed her story in some ways, which can be said for every other character, but saying kubo doesnt care about her when he constantly singles her out in art or interviews is peak delusion. her and uryu are the only nakama members to get decent endings. ichigo is a wagecuck who is btfo by his son, renji is forever a captain, orihime gained a family but her abilities were done dirty in the manga and chad is chad
>>
>>291751299
>There is literally no reason for fucking yuki of all people to be one of the people dealing a final blow to Yhwach
Literally read the original post of the reply chain, rukiacuck. Ryunosuke helping to finish Yhwach has a very obvious narrative weight that serves as the pay off he never had in the manga ten years ago.
>>
Rukia's popularity was always a thorn on Kubo's side since he shafted her halfway through the Arrancar arc as the female lead and heroine of the manga for that bitch Inoue.
He only grew bitter as the audience kept rejecting his stupid, boring, big tits, wish fulfillment waifu no matter how hard he was shoving her down our throats and as a result he kept diminish Rukia's role more and more to the point she was a background character in TYBW out of some petty grudge against his most popular character, no wonder he and Akutami GayGay get along so well.
>>
>>291751637

wasn't it phrased in a way that could mean a character that wasn't in those scenes, rather than an entirely new one?

As a neutral party, both Rukia and Orihime seem to be treated quite poorly in the final arc, in fact, most major characters like Uryu were treated badly, especially when compared to someone like Mayuri. The anime, however, did a better job with Uryu and Orihime, while also giving the spotlight to some randoms
like Grimmjow.

he didnt shaft her. the problem with kubo is that he admitted to creating characters when he feels creatively stuck. the shinigami were already a huge cast to juggle but he kept adding more and more every single arc and adding more characters isnt a huge deal, but kubo cannot balance them all. they each got a dedicated arc, outside of renji, and he still failed. orihime became irrelevant after the ulquiorra fight cause she had nothing to do with aizen, chad was useless outside of introducing the fullshitters to ichigo, and uryu didnt get enough focus in whats supposedly his arc. and in the final arc, kubo decides to bring the likes of fucking nel and riruka and yukio to SS for some reason?? grimmjow i could understand cause he can give a decent fight and facebook helped fix ichigos bankai but the others were dumb additions. on top of that most of the nazis are not interesting, kubo peaked with the shinigami/arrancar as villains

Zangetsu look isn't 100% consistent all the time, sometimes it's a little more curved, sometimes it's straight, sometimes it's wide, sometimes it has normal knife proportions, sometimes the white part is thinner, etc etc
It's still meant to be the same thing, that's why Yhwach instantly recognizes it as Zangetsu. Also a callback to Zangetsu training back in the SS arc where Ichigo's inner Yhwach/oldman Zangetsu says only the true him, the true blade can beat him.

>>291752063
He'll think of something, hopefully it isn't disappointing like Kenpachi's Bankai. Aizen might not even be involved in the upcoming Hell Arc

An argument could be made Kubo got way too creative with the Quincy abilities in the final arc...

we have moments in the manga where it seems like something big is going to happen with aizen but we get nothing outside of a speech in the end. he tries to paint him as the narrative foil to yhwach which failed to land with a lot of readers because the buildup wasnt there. i dont think kubo knows what to do with aizen but he doesnt want to kill him off for whatever reason. bleach would benefit from more deaths

Aizenfags are the biggest losers of this adaptation and its not even close. The only crumb they were thrown is getting a bonus dialogue scene in episode 6.

It's a good idea. We know nothing of Aizen's backstory and such.

aizens motivation was understandable and demonstrated through his actions and character. and it was open ended enough, that his quest for power itself was more interesting than whatever he wanted to do after he reaches the soulking. and the leadup to it made it believable and well shown how we are excited that these characters try to defeat him, as ichigo grows to the task.
jewha was a schizoid shit, this jew-nazi plot had no sense, and still wasnt made any sense of. jewha has no discernible motivation, incoherent powerscaling and no sign of even wanting to gain power, the fates attached to him are laughable, is it supposed to contrast that he leeches on them? then the imagery makes no sense, who is still hoping for him that were severed in the end? ah but he is an evil black goop monster at the same time. power increase means more black goop? but we do not get any true sense of his power growing. it was black goop for the last 8 hours, same black goop being slashed by weirdos downstairs need getsugas up in the bossfight arena where you cant see shit to begin with. neither of ichigos power. just slashing black goo with different blades. the only moment we see some meaningful sense is when ichigo actually breaks one of those blue swords with his fake blood chains bankai, probably the most powerful dense energy blade jewha can make. but it isnt touched on or followed up. the unshown limits of things like the balance and antithesis, the almighty itself, why jewha got scar on his face, the pathetic look of the getsuga that created that scar, compared to any black getsuga, let alone the bloodchains one, the uryu nuke and how he could wrap it up, orihime nonsense, all just made things worse and more incoherent.

in short, we got no sense of a real purpose or a real quest, or even a real character to hate. not even to understand and not even to be disgusted by and reject his plan. just a disjointed shizo shit. and we didnt even get to see true tensa zangetsu at full power.

im going to be honest, i dont think kubo considers most of the new additions as canon. i think he considers the anime to be its own unique vision and hes glad that the anime staff was so passionate about his work but the manga he wrote will always be the true canon story. thats not to say he wouldnt be open to building on additions that the anime introduced, we just have to see what happens if he continues the hell arc. im very interested in knowing if he considers the powerups of orihime and uryu to be canon or filler. we know he came up with ichigos new form, but what else did he come up with himself?

Why even have Ichigo and his party go through royal squad training when some fodder shinigami named Yuki can come near Yhwach without exploding to death from spiritual pressure?

>>291752434
So, the Og Gotei 13 is not canon?
>>
>>291752148
Ichigo is so lucky!
>>
i see why you guys call him an orihimeSCHIZO and not an orihimefag now
>>
>>291752317
The only real time we saw Yhwach's power lately was this episode when things went blueish white as he was seconds away from realizing his New World.
Yhwach also didn't betray SS like Azien did, which was a betrayal from within of course, making him easier to hate. Plus we were shown a glimpse of young Yhwach in the primordial sea crying and we sympathized with his situation and motivations at times.
>>
>>291752310
>when Kubo could not even come up with a new poem for Episode 49
Wow. I didn't even notice that.
>>
>>291752406
I think Ichigo is mid tier, not weak. It doesn't help that he spent most of the last arc jobbing or falling into despair.

If Kubo had Ichigo punch Ywach (or do something)after his Bankai got broke instead giving up, people would have a higher opinion of him.

As does ganju (mogged instantly) (oh wait now he's beating Baja blast)

The anime ruined the ending more even with the flashing colors. PEAKfags ruined the medium. I actually think this is worse than the manga all things considered.

I'm really glad Kubo and Shunsui killed off Unohana so Kenoachi could..........beat a fodder arrancar and then lose to two of the Shutzlestaffle in a row before not helping kill You-watch. Maybe unohana should have trained Dodonchoka.

thats what i couldnt fit into the word limit to just tie up the nonsense. what was his new world? whats the reason for his tears in the primordial? the fates attached? it looked like some kind of kojima nonsense. you cant just say 'fear of death', then have some disgusting demon sounding tentacle monster at this point, blocking everything up to the sky, all the while ranting about rivers of blood or some shit. theres incoherent characters deluding the viewer and themselves, being bloodthirsty and evil while having their strange ideal. but its the writing itself thats incoherent. im somewhat glad it was fumbled, because the depth of the ideas being clashed here are far more important than to give real memorable value with a well made finale, when they are dealt with so incoherently. asimple good solution would have been exactly, to have this monster mess, have him unite all his powers into the one facing a full powered horn of salvation ichigo, he eradicates this entire black goop mess with a microphone breaking getsuga, but his sword is busted too about to break, kind of like a final getsuga, except from the sheer reality altering force, not from giving it up. and then he is transported alone to a new wordls vision. some actual characterized words for the son born in the dark, and its a mixture of the coming new reality and the blown apart old one, where ichigo has to cut him in half even though we can already see the new world coming to fruition. it would be a bittersweet ending, that actually realizes some narrative points about the final boss character and the ultimate agency of ichigo deciding his fate for better or worse. but im saying its better we didnt get that afterall. cuz the ideas were incoherently shown throughout.

Bleach is one of the only stories I've seen that's basically written for children and even then people have a hard time understanding it

>Idiot readers: Well obviously he's just lying, he's lying about everything because I hate him, villains are pure black and white characters with no nuance, I'll claim there's no depth at all as an excuse so I can claim that everything characters I hate say must be a lie. I am unable to understand literary characters on any level.

I can really understand why Kubo repeatedly says he hates all the people that read his manga, especially the shippers.

It's the matter of reading comprehension.
Usually shounen manga is very, very stgraightforward, everything said and drawn is meant to be taken at face value.
Bleach goes against this and dares to have depth. It's still chldren level ideas, but people don't even try to work bare minimum for them because they're not supposed to be there.
Another side of the issue (as I mostly encounter debilitating lack of reading comprehension during American hours) is the way Americans are taught to read. They're taught to regignise words, not meanings behind sentences. Reading comprehension is not being taught at all, just the mechanical process of so you can price tags.

Okay let's break down your retarded post.
>force The Almighty
Nobody could "force" Yhwach to use The Almighty back then, because that power was Jugram's, it came back to Yhwach just right before Orihime went kamikaze on him.
>manga
We are talking about the anime, not the manga. Blood Chains was only shown in the anime, in case you didn't notice, so if you want to compare it to the hybrid hollow form you have to use anime's hybrid hollow form.
>the truth
The truth is that you can hardly express yourself and when you do it, you fail spectacularly because you are arguing about a series you watched with closed eyes, apparently.

>>291756123

>>291756155
the truth is anime ichigo is weaker than manga ichigo
anime ichigo couldn't damage yhwach with a brand new bankai form
manga ichigo could damage yhwach with half hollowfication
blood chains didn't matter in the end, its only purpose is to sell merch and make piggies like you lap up and slurp whatever kubo throws at the screen with shiny effects
>>
>>291756359
>more mixing versions that means nothing and leads us nowhere
You can say Ichigo got weaker in the anime relative to Yhwach. I can say Yhwach got stronger in the anime relative to Ichigo. They are correct and yet irrelevant statements that mean nothing and you are still a pathetic dumbass who can't handle Blood Chains being Ichigo's most powerful form, which was confirmed literally on debut.
You are free to cope, cry and shit your pants all you want, I don't care about your personal thoughts on the form. Nobody does, actually.

Unironically yes. Ryunosuke is the inversion of Yhwach, Yhwach was almighty but afraid of death, so he became a villain to destroy it, but Ryunosuke started fearing death in his weakness and developed the courage to fight for good. The almighty ancient quincy afraid of death, killed by a puny young shinigami who learned what valor is.

Ryunosuke is literally the protagonist of the first chapter of the TYBW. Rukia's character is complete and there's not a single point of having her stab Yhwach other than fanservice.
