[@Kirky] It's ironic how Lisa resembles Nanao SO much, and both of them are/later become his Lieutenants. Ironic, is it not? Captain Unohana? Well, she's been on the battle field before, but she is the head of the health squad (or whatever it's called), so even though she's a Captain and her strength is superior to others, it's mostly based on healing techniques and whatnot, plus her Bankai, which is a giant whale, its saliva actually cures your injuries as it swallows you up in its mouth. After reading Shiga's post above, it totally does remind me of Osaka! I can totally picture it in my head, and I've seen the anime so many times, it's just built in a corner in my head, hahaha. Everything about Lurichyo is filler, but this technically is a filler, but not official (I think), since it's relevant to the story, though they hopped away from when Aizen entered Karakura Town, which makes this part filler, though unlike the other filler and the Bounto Arc, this filler/side story/flash back is pretty darn cool! Waiting for 211... taking forever to release. >_<;; ------- |

Ahhh Kansai's the regional dialect right? But it's a more specific Osakan dialect. Man, that's crazy cool. Azumanga has a special little place in my brain too. I'm sure we can make everything relate to it. xD Ahhh, too true about Nanao/Lisa. They're quite similar personality wise aswell as looks. Although, Lisa's a bit more forward and blunt hehe :P. Ahh, I just thought it would be funny to see Unohana taking on some people with her bankai. Which frankly, would be quite shitty for an onslaught, as its more specified at healing as that's her companies job. I just thought it'd be a sight ^^". Ah right, well, atleast these are good fillers. Blimey, can't believe I just put good and filler together xD that's a first for Bleach eh? They are pretty darn cool dudeh :) I downloaded 211 last night, about to commence now one I get a cup of tea :D:D |

Hmmmm..think DA would like your choices ;) Do you keep up with the manga Shige?~ [Edit] Just watched 211 ^_______________________________________^ It's too late for me to make a long post. But I'll just say one thing; Nanao~~chan! ^^. Tooooooooo cute. This episode was pretty freakin beasty man. I enjoyed it. Looks like you're right Shige. "This arc is almost up time for me to get some screen time" "Actually they're doing another past storyline yada yada". Damn Bleach n their fillers. :( |

Nemu definitely got bustier lately, or since we saw her in Hueco Mundo. I tried to find that thread that listed out all my favorite girls (it had favorite Captains, too), but I can't find it. I wish the search function was back, and back to how it used to be (before it the 'began with' option was added). Anyways, saw 211 now, man what a turn around. Shinji is surely the leader of the Vizards for sure. I felt bad for Hiyori, she tried her best to hold it back, and tried to keep her composure. It seems Tousen really was the one doing it, I always had that indication. So the three have finally united together (Aizen, Tousen, and Gin), ironic they become Captains later on and leave once again. Just as I thought, Tousen's still easily unbearable as always... man, I hate Tousen. More on another note, we see Nanao, as a kid! Ironic she not only looks like Lisa, but takes over her spot in the future, too, and she's the younger member of his Squad right now. Talk about Toshiya, without the prodigy aspect. I guess I understand why she really, really cares for Kyouraku as much as she does. Lisa used to take are of him all the time, and to Nanao, he's like a father, or even grandfather perhaps (or that feeling). Next episode should be interesting. I wanna see what takes place. Urahara shows up on the battle scene at the end, and things are going to finally get serious with him. I still don't understand how the future Vizards randomly was involved with Hollowfication, but I guess it's just how Ichigo was, it was just "fate" that this secret power, was stored deep inside and was just growing out over time. As it was mentioned, another storyline will begin, and it seems like this will just be what happens next, so it'll still be the flashback, back-to-the-past arc if you may call it. I'm interested in seeing how things progress from here on out. One thing I've always hated, was that if you're a Captain, or any level Shinigami, if you obviously see someone that's currently at a higher level, wouldn't you want to at least release your Shikai instead of just fighting whoever head on with no released form? You risk taking exceptional damage, as well as your life being taken away without even showing your opponent your full power. I guess it helps build the dramatic outcome of the battle, but not everyone does this. Someone like Byakuya, best that I can think of right now, or ULQUIORRA, are good examples of this. They fight calmly and collectively, and they don't release their full strength until they have to, but they're naturally strong from the start, with/without Shikai alone. ------- |

I did enjoy this one. Chibi Nanao~chan was too cute. I liked Kyoraku's little pep talks in this episode, to her and Urahara. He has a lot of faith in Lisa. :(. Like you said at the end of your post DA, I wish that they atleast released their Zanpacktou's. I mean come on, if Kensei's a badass before Hollowifying (nice word ne?) then he's gonna be super badass after it! Love was pretty heroic in this episode. Yeh, that Tousen. Them three do plot well together, Aizen had Shinji truly fooled. I've never really liked Tousen either. I hope in the upcoming war bit that Komamura unleashes his own justice on that tool. Hehe. With Urahara and Tensai (that's his name right?) showing up at the end it's definitely heating up. It showed Yoruichi in the previews, do you think this is the episode where they have to leave? There was a couple of moments with Urahara surrounded by the ninja squad. I'm still interested how this is gonna play out. That cunning bar-stool Aizen is soo evil. >:D Lush new avatar thing-ma-jig DA-dudeh. :) |
Re: New Bleach thread (anime)

This Past Arc is just that, a Past Arc, its not filler. It was in the manga and is relevant to the story, whats will happen after this arc is FILLER. dont get plot and filler mixed up. It should be over within the next couple of episodes so dont expect too many new revelations...although it is all deliciously good..... |

[@Kirky] Kyouraku is a pretty calm person. If you remember during the Soul Society Chapter, when he met and faced Chad, he offered to spare his life, and even when their battle was over, with Kyouraku being victorious (obviously), he let him live when his order was to kill all the Ryoka, and I think that's a good deed in itself. You know he let him live because even Nanao said something like "but sir, that Ryoka is still alive", and he just kept walking or so. It's funny how Lisa is so supportive and caring for her Captain, where as Nanao later would do the exact same. I wouldn't be surprised if they were related somehow, because they look so much alike. Shoot, I even took Lisa as Nanao with a different hairstyle when I first saw her in this arc. Aizen's special abilities relate to Genjutsu, so I don't blame Shinji, but Shinji truly amazed me in this episode. Not only is he a pretty friggin' bad455 Captain, he read Aizen pretty well, far more than anyone could've done. The way he accepted Aizen, was pure maliciousness. Can't blame Shinji since Aizen released his Zanpakuto on Shinji without him being aware, though I guess he was never aware of this ability of from Aizen, but moving along, Shinji has heart, and faught off that Hollowification process as best as he could. He even faught Shinji by HOLDING back his anger and power. Tousen is like a bad politician who believes the wrong ideas or portrays what he thinks is right, in the wrong sense. Komamura will definitely get his revenge, as he swore he will, so that'll be the best to see them fight one on one this time, unlike last time when they were just PWNED by Kenpachi... jesus, that was brutal. I like the clip of Komamura in the OP where he's standing in the background. Komamura's kindof beast, too, and I like his Bankai... it's like, this GIANT GIANT! DANGG!! You're talking about 'Tessai', and I'm not sure if they leave right away. Old man Yamamoto is a dictator in these types of situations, making decisions rationally... :/ They do in fact show the place where Urahara and Yoruichi train together, and perhaps he hides there cause it's a secret spot. Of course, he makes an exact replica of it, and puts it in the Urahara Shop basement floor or whatever. XD The PV showed things that were unclear and getting nothing out of it or just being confused is normal. But it makes it more interesting and the wait becomes anxious and unbearable. I hope Bleach ends with a bang, and finishes. It's still a long way to go, unlike Naruto though, but Bleach can still save its series. OH, and I don't get what you said lastly there. XD ------- |

[@insanity] Doesn't Yoruichi have s similar one to Soifon? Or vice versa? shige's right, it won't be for a little while until we see Aizen's. He's definitely going to use it when we get back to Karakura Town. Shinji will definitely take him on, he has to, I can't wait. It's going to be intense. Gotei 13 + Vizards vs. Stark, Barragan, Halibel, Tousen, Aizen, and Gin / Ichigo vs. Ulquiorra (finally!). ------- |

@DA. Yes, Kyouraku is a calm and collected fella underneath that ecchi-ness. I think he's one of my favourite guys in the series. I wanna see him fight some more. Even though, he tries to go out of his way not too. I think it's plausible that Lisa and Nanao could be related. xD Shinji is indeed a beast. I loved that he jumped to Hiyori's aid :). It's a shame that he was just a pawn to Aizen. I'm really looking forward to a showdown from them two too. :D Ah man, I loved that ol' fight between Kenpachi - Tousen and Komamura. Ya know, one of my favourite moments in the whole series is when Aizen's monologue-ing to Rukia about the Houykou thingy and then Komamura just goes "AIZEN!!" in midst of Aizen's speech. Then ya see his bankai slam down. That was one of my favourite bits :D:D:D 'cos I didn't expect it at all. Hehe, that's cute that you say dang dudeh :3 Ahh Tessai! That's the fellas name. Nice one. Ah man, doesn't ol' man Yamamoto get on your nerves? He does me. For example, I was watching the DDR the other night, and he's all like "Execute Hitsugaya". And Unohana says, maybe we shouldn't it's a bit rash. And he just shuts her up man. I mean, I know he's like the foundation for the Gotei 13 but he is getting on a bit now! xD Ohh, the end bit was me saying that I like your new avatar/avy thing haha. It's cool (Y). It's gonna be so intense when they get back to Karakura Town. QFT DA. I'm still lovin Velonica :3. And I don't mind the ending song, not the best one going. But alrite. |

[@kirky] Oh thanks. Can you imagine who it is? XD Ol' man Yamamoto does have his fairness in this though, because he's the leader of Gotei 13, as well as the entire Central 46 (gov't). When it comes to certain things that involve Ichigo, preferably in the movies, Yamamoto always goes against what Ichigo is trying to do. Can't wait to see it in the third movie, but if you always notice, the other Captains always follow Ichigo, even if they're disobeying orders. We already know that Renji and Rukia will following Ichigo, but he always has a few Captains, too (Kenpachi, Byakuya/Ukitake (if it involves Rukia for sure), etc.). It's cool to see what they truly believe in, but Ol' man Yamamoto knows whats best I suppose, though his decision in the end changes for the better anyways. ------- |

Is is everyone's favourite seiyuu of the moment, Kugimiya Rie? :P:P Aya of course! :3 I'm looking forward to d/ling the next Bleach ep. Roll on about half hour :D:D:D [edit] Just watched 212. xDxDxD. All I can say is, Tessai's a badass! :D The preview for next ep, some lovely filler action. Looks as though it could be funny though... |

Just saw episode 212, and it sets up what doesn't appear to be next, according to the lame filler PV. D:< But more on this episode, surely it was entertaining and the future gets closer. Friggin' Tessai's lightning cannon kidou was unreal! Did you see that thing!? Aizen blocking it without a sweat, without even looking, that's being godlike in an RP for sure. If he's that powerful as a vice-captain, surely the Vizards that are currently captain must be insanely strong, too, but due to the lack of bankai (we're not even sure if they achieved this level yet), we're not sure where everyone stands on "powerful and strength". We see the first ever appearance of the Hougyoku, the item Aizen later stole and stored away later in Hueco Mundo. Aizen must've used his hypnosis on Central 46, though this won't be the last time (as he killed them during the SSC). I don't get how he breaks into their security so easily, but he's Aizen, and he probably just manipulated anyone in his way anyways (kind of like using Geass). So the escape with the future Vizard, Urahara, Tessai, and Yoruichi is revealed. Soifon is going to be horribly upset when she doesn't find Yoruichi because she "just left" (reference: SSC; that was a precious moment when they reunited). Speaking of Yoruichi, she's soooooo insanely hot. Still my #1. Nobody messes with Yoruichi man. ^_~` The ending of this episode really got me excited, jesus christ. It follows to the point where Aizen made his appearance in Karakura Town, but due to the annoying filler, there's no way that's happening in 213, and possibly more. Lame! :/ Did you see Kensei's? face when Shinji said that Urahara was right about this day of reckoning if you will, and that they had to thank him for everything, but as well to Aizen. Kensei is going to go berserk on Tousen, and speaking of him, what a B****! Did you see him in this episode? He can't kill Tessai or Urahara, give me a break, just stay back you friggin' n00b. I have to admit without hypnosis, Aizen is one smart person, seriously. Kind of like satan controlling the world, but he's been devious for so many years. I just want this huge war to commence, all these fillers (well, now this obvious irrelevant filler) drives me insane. Also a huge mention, the artwork/animation was VERY good! Kind of like when 121 and so came out (after the Bounto Arc ended), the same consistency-new look was shown, I believe, and wow it looked amazing. ------- |

Woaah sorry for the delay. Been a bit MIA on here haha. Have you watched ep.213 yet DA? A bit of Kamen Rider-sentai rangers stuff going on. Kon was pretty funny this episode. As was Urahara. I actually enjoyed this one. But still, I'm really excited after the ending of 212. With Shinji announcing that they owe Urahara and them guys moving out. xD! It's gonna be epic man. Truly epic. And no one messes with Yoruichi,she's a badass. Ahh, one more episode of some silliness from the Karakura-Raizer team (seriously Chizuru surprised me!) then it's back to the action. :D |

I planned to watch it when it released and I dLed it, but I never had a chance to since I kept falling asleep every night, but I knew it was a filler so it wasn't like, important to watch or whatever. Just saw it now, I have to say it was kind of funny, some parts anyways. I liked how they got serious at certain moments by playing with sarcasm and using the serious battle music in the series, like this scene: That old school styled Hollow had personality, haha! He picked his noise and flicked the "excess" away, how come that's common in those situations? FLCL! It's funny though, haha. It's like you do that if your friends bore you or something, but it'd be gross, but it'd totally insult them and smack them in the face, emotionally. I can't tell for sure who that lady was in the end, but a few guesses comes up that I'll find out next week! I hope it's only one more episode... like, it's fun 'n' all, but they need to stop pulling away from the action! ------- |

No offence- not been catching up with it- but one thing: Is it just me- or is Bleach 198- 201 ~~~ Espada is strong, Ichigo shouts "Kenpachi!" Kenpachi gets stronger (for some reason) it's all good. Espada pulls out new stronger trick and Ichigo shouts "Kenpachi!" Then Kenpachi starts hacking through the Espada's (um, thingy) then it's all good and Ichiru is smiling. Espada gets more strong, everything is tense and he is beating Kenpachi and so on and so forth... and more reiatsu and eyepatch comes off, gets stronger- flashbacks, more hacking.... Now before everyone throws stuff at me i would just like to say: fair enough the manga sounds promising, but if everyone revises it- Kenpachi and this Espada goes on like this for ages !! >< And honestly that Espada loves Nel, doesn't he? |

You're talking about the Nnoitra vs. Kenpachi fight. Well, it does go on, but it changes to other battles sometimes, too. It was long, it was slow, but it gets better a few episodes later so keep watching. ------- |

I was gonna try and get a pic from 213 of the "Good timing with the special effects Uruyu" or something around then. Kon shouting at that hollow for interrupting his monologue was pretty brilliant. The hollow's personality was pretty funny, his nose picking did remind me of ol FLCL (classic anime). @Hollow Espada, is it really confirmed that Ichigo's dad was of Captain class? We definitely didn't see him in the Pendulum arc, but tbh I have no idea where he would fit in. Sorry :( @Admin I like Bleach too :D. |
