Unfortunately it seems she survived

Hueco Mundo leftover arrancars as future allies for expendable meat shields and comic relief.

Ichigo's friends would advance their powers to captain power spectrum or very near them. Orihime will be hax with the power to revive anyone within 50 feet from her.

I was kinda bored on how Ichigo's fgt (read it as faggt) looked like Chad's arms + Vincent Valentine style hair and lower face mask.

Ichigo's father lost his power before and got it back somehow, same case with Ichigo, so all this losing his power because of that final solution is rubbish.

Mayuri, more hollowification technology for everyone! Nuff said.

Everyone would have a pseudo hougyouku, same stance like Gundam 00 2nd season where everyone has pseudo solar powered generators.

Good point. Especially since it could explain why Isshin knew about the Final Getsuga and how exactly he lost his powers. So Isshin activated FGT at one time and then settled down as a human. That's a reasonable explanation of sorts.

So this is it huh...the end of Bleach.

Maybe Kubo's using the 2 week hiatus as a headstart so he can get to a decent, secure hiding place before his fans realise that the series ended this week with this odd ending and start hunting him down.

[Master Chibi]

He should just stop period, this last chapter was a god damn disgrace to the great start this series had. It almost makes me physically sick to my stomach.

[Dart]

While this is probably the worst arc ending I've ever seen (as a series ending it would just be "bad"), this is probably the most I've laughed about something in Bleach in a long time:

Are you really surprised? When I read fanfiction that seems more well thought out than the official manga (and I CAN'T believe I'm actually saying that), then we got issues.

I don't even know if a two week hiatus is gonna be enough to breathe life back into the gasping fish that has become Bleach. The plot-kai has become nearly unbearable... and this coming from me --- a person who has Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann AND Code Geass in their list of top 5 favorite anime of all time.

Meanwhile, in ancient Japan, Kubo is laughing and saying "KU KU KU, Just as planned...."

[finalnight]

Oh crap. I thought we were at the end of bleach or an arc away (heaven), but now it seems like he is resetting for a whole new series.

I'm confused, is Gin dead? Rangiku's little monologue didn't quite spell it out well enough for me...

That being said, besides the nice finale (I still hope there will be a 20 year time skip, and Ichigo's son/daughter will be the new protagonist), this was a very uneven chapter. From the horrifically bad Yamamoto comedy shtick, to the silly Rangiku interlude (sorry Chesty La Rue, but I stopped caring about you a hundred chapter ago), and the annoying Aizen smirk as he is imprisoned for 20,000 years (which, he undoubtedly planned so that he could meet the prison warden or some other prisoner, etc), this chapter was just bland and annoying.

[Alchemist007]

If KT can make shit work better, I'm all for Ichigo resurrecting his powers.

We must assume that he is pretty much dead... his wounds were inflicted by the ultrahaxor Aizen v3.11... But, I think that Kubo was smart enough to not kill some guys like Gin, Aizen for later events. I think that Gin is MIA.

@Alchemist007: KT already pulls that trigger a couple of times: Ishida losts his powers, Isshin too.
The only thing i think about this is that Ichigo Power doesn't return in a lame, very lame way, that would suck!

so he can break them out of imperial down to stop them from destroying the sacred jewel of the 4 souls?

Also we all loved the captains remarks kubo should give them comic lines more.

[Hsadman]

Guys, this isn't the end of Bleach. They just stabbed it horribly, they're still leaving it to bleed out :P

[Hunter6VI6]

Wow, what a less than satisfactory ending. No more like down right disappointing.

Not only does my favorite character Gin die but Momo lives.

I went into the Hueco Mundo Arc with my top 5 Anime looking like this:

1)Bleach
2)Full Metal Alchemist
3)Stand Alone Complex
4)Cowboy Bebop
5)Darker Than Black

When I got to the part with the Vizards showing up it was looking like this:

1)Full Metal Alchemist
2)Bleach
3)Stand Alone Complex
4)Cowboy Bebop
5)Darker Than Black

After reading everything up to this point it, I'm not even putting it in my top 10.

Hoping after this 2 week break it gets better. (A guy can dream can't he? )

Anyways, a lot of you make a good point.

Like I think it was on page 10 or whatever where you were discussing if Urahara's method could restore his shinigami powers.

Even if his Shinigami powers are gone, they could still restore his spiritual awareness or whatever by making him fight Ururu again can't they?

Maybe that's how they'll do it?

Also, Aizen breaking his father out, a la Prison Break much? lol

Of course - Kubo's gonna try and keep going for as long as possible before WSJ tells him that enough is enough and that they will no longer publish his work (due to shittiness)

[Hsadman]

Aizen's....father? Did I miss out or something because I don't recall anything about his family :S

[Crimrui]

Someone already said this but now I agree, Bleach is like Japanese style RPG. As long as one person is standing, it's not game over. And, when victory is archived and the battle is over, those good guys with 0HP just stand up and are alive again XD

[Wiggy Fuzz]

apparently this good guy's status is still unknown

Kensei Mugurama - the least threatening picture i could find
