I thought so too! Fans were raging during the chapter releases though



Episode is FAIL! because I am an IchiRuki shipper and we got trolled

I loved all the Riruka moments though

[wingdarkness]

Is something wrong with me, because I humm the New Bleach theme song allday, I just love it...Even at lunch and I am talking to a hot chick, I'm humming it in my head...I'm a grown man dammit!

All I remember was..."lawl, manbearpig!"

You know there's something wrong with you :O Doesn't leave much of an impression on me, but it's not bad

So, on to the episode...Riruka and Giriko are so weird, one abducts some random dude to train Ichigo, and the other one's...well, self-explanatory, making monsters and handing out tea afterwards Chad finally got a moment after so many many episodes, and he didn't waste a moment...at least someone was there to help Ichigo.
Nice cliffhanger, but omake was once again, amazing! If I ever get injured again, I'll look up Ryuuken's hospital

I don't know where to post this, but can someone explain how Captain Soi Fon got her arm back? I thought she lost it in the Arc with Aizen.

[sayde]

Kubo's bad at filling in some of the blanks. So that leaves either 1 of 2 explanations.

1.) Unohana used some magical medical kido hax to give her back her arm (unlikely)
2.) Orihime rejected her arm back into existence. (more likely)

Just don't ask why Yamamoto didn't get his arm back as well. In the future, a question like this would probably belong in the stickied Q&A thread.

[Mr. DJ]

Yama-ji possibly rejected (pun not intended ) the offer.

[ookamigirl]

Ichigo in a doll house LOL
Guess Riruka enjoyed that very much.
Surviving that one wasn't easy.
Good episode.

[wingdarkness]

These episodes are awesome just for the simple fact the show has found a way to downgrade the main characters' power in an acceptable fashion, this late in the game...

When Ichigo started in this series everything was high-paced, accelerated, fast tracked training he could handle because of his pure spiritual powers...As a human, to see him have to just develop his latent abilities while keeping his spiritual fighting-sense in-tact is nice to see...

The day Kubo crapped this out he must've eatin' a damn tasty burrito, because it's working for me, even the weirdness of Xcution's powers...Seems like another YuYu Hakusho rip (Territory-esque powers), but the fact that Ichigo has never been shown this heavily involved in human-mode fighting, gives the show alot to work with (Again at this stage in the game nearing 400 episodes)...

I'm enjoying everything about this, even annoying pig-girl...
