You do know that there are 10 Espadas...not to mention we don't even know if any Vastrodes have been made into Arrancars yet either. In case you've forgotten, the Vastrodes are the Menos Grandes that dwarf any Captain in terms of strength. We haven't even seen them come into play yet, but just because the Shinigami have this victory, the series is over right here, right now. >_> |

I thought there wasn't supposed to be a chapter this week?
Anyway... Grrrr...I had a feeling that they would end up winning. It was kind of obvious. I fear this is a bad omen for what is to come. I just hope Ichigo gets his ass kicked by Grimjaw. That is the only thing I really care about. These arrancar that they were fighting were 11+, even tho they were supposed to be super, incredibly strong... I suppose it is understandable..sort of. BUT, if any of the Espada get beaten this easily, then I shall be very dissapointed. |

So the weakest tier Arankall get their butts whipped and we're already calling the series lame. Jumping the gun, aren't we?
It's like Ichigo and co. in the Soul Society whipping the butts of all the lower tier Shinigami, they are the pathetic ones of the bunch. We still have yet to see the bad guys' full power.

The two above 11 that came to check Ichigo fled after their encounter with two captains. I guess this should be an expected result. If those below-11 guys were as strong as the captains and vice-captains, the series should have ended with a complete defeat of the Shinigami, right? And, as long as you are not at that level, then you are not a match for the Shinigami captains. I believe this should be accepted as a satisfactory end to this encounter.

I dunno, it was getting a little depressing seeing the shinigami being beaten so easily and viciously by Aizen in the anime the previous week or two ago. Then these lower level arrancar whip around some mid-level captains like nothing. I guess Kubo Tite is just reminding us who the real enemies are, and the lower level arrancar were just messengers.
I didn't, but I'm sure some people remembered that shinigami have their power levels lowered in the real world. Just as Renji did in his first encounter with Ichigo. I wonder if that little girl that came and sidekicked Grimjaw (sp?) had her power lowered to 20% or not. |

I am not saying that the bad guys should win or that they should kill someone everyweek. But after all this time, a little bit of 'shock' could go a long way.

I just think it's ridiculous that Hitsugaya keeps fighting to near death then to come back again and again though. Oh wait. Same goes for Renji as well. Maybe Ichigo just wasn't as strong as he seemed by the end of the SS angle.. Which sorta doesn't make sense since he beat Kenpachi and Byakuya when they were at full strength.. |

And yeah, I agree, a little bit of shock could go a long way. However, with the way the Arrancars were toying with the Shinigami before they got their limits lifted, I could hardly call their (the Arrancar's) victory a "shock" if it had happened. |

I just feel that these fights were all meaningless... Why do we need to be introduced to such cannonfodder at all, what did they really add to the storyline? I feel like I've just been reading filler. Bleh. |

I would think that Ichigo would have been easily able to dispose of several Arankars by himself if Hitsugaya and Ikkaku can. I don't know.. I'm a bit confused as to Ichigo's situation in all this as well. |

After 210 chapters, we have yet to see a lot of Shinigamis in action. Some of them have done so little, that you actually need to check a character guide just to remember their names. IMHO, having a lot of characters in a show is a fatal flaw, because it's doesn't allow proper development of several characters in any show; not just in Bleach.
