[Manga] Chapter 240 Discussion

[hi no ken Jebus]

"Regeneration"

Spoiler:

Urahara creates a doorway similar to arankaru's which is called garganta. As they get in urahara asks ichigo if he gave his regards to his family and friends. He says that he'll apologize when they come back. After ichigo and co leave Urahara tells Tatsuki, Keigo, and Mizuiro to come out of their hiding place. Keigo asks him since when did he know they were there and he says since they were following ichigo. He then says he has to do his part now. Scene change to aizen's lair, Las Noches, where he is giving orihime a welcoming reception. Aizen teases luppi by saying he needs to see her power since he doesn't accept the fact they were sent to fight to bring back just one girl. He orders her to heal Grimmjow's arm which luppi whines about saying it's impossible since it's gone.

Orihime begins to heal his arm and Luppi freaks out saying he'll kill her if she can't do it but is shocked when his arm appears. A dumbfounded luppi asks how is it possible and Aizen explains the nature of her power. Grimmjow tells orihime to heal the spot where the number 6 used to be which pisses off Luppi. Grimmjow impales luppi with his new arm and tells him "goodbye former number 6". He then hits luppi with a cero and laughs maniacally exclaiming "my power is back, I'm number 6, the sexta espada grimmjow". And chapter ends.

Ura goes too this time ?

[miko tian]

holy crap this sounds insane, do u think this is gonna be a short rescue arc or a really long drawn out SS-like arc? T__T;; and hime's personality is starting to irritate me, the fact that she's so spinelessly benevolent that she helps grimmjow and aizen ... wow i've totally started dislike her.

on another note, i knew bleach was gonna start to focus more on ichigo's other friends and their budding powers, so the fact that tatsuki, keigo, and mizuiro are stalking ichigo is kinda indicative of the fact that they're all IN on what ichigo's up to and that they're be trying to help him in future. aw man, all i've got to say is, keigo better have totally whupping abilities

[Kona]

Revenge is best served cold. Haha rubi got owned, he needs to die anyway with that arrogant attitude.

[LightningZERO]

Luppi is dead? What about his promise on stepping on Hitsugaya's head?

Grimmjow would just take over it after he's done with Ichigo?

I couldn't care much less about Luppi's character. Too much shallow and corn for my taste; was just the fodder to fill on Grimmjow's shoes for an interim, until Orihime was acquired.

Kudos to Kubo for expanding the vast Spanish terminology dictionary.

[gibits]

Slow chapter but i liked it. I mean can Grimjaw be any more badass?

My new favorite villian= the real sexta espada Grimjaw

[Ichy]

OMG I wonder how badass grimmjow can get. He was so strong even with one Arm. But Ulquiorra is still better

One thing abour Himes Powers:
When she is able to recover Grimmjows Arm, she is maybe able to turn some Espadas back to their normal Hollow Form?

[Sazelyt]

Urahara gives the impression of having ties with Aizen's plans (like the real boss behind Aizen), but for the time being his connection to Isshin lowers that possibility. I wonder what he will do after sending them there. If the gate closes behind Ichigo and co., that will prevent them to return back. And since they cannot come back from Hueco Mundo alone, Urahara needs to help them by going there. And I don't think he will go alone (calling some powerful friends maybe).

Griimjow is likely to become the next Kenpachi. But another arc highly similar to the soul society one will be boring. Still, that seems the only logical choice considering the insufficient manpower Ichigo and co have to confront all those Arrancars alone.

If Orihime's healing power has increased that much (strength and speed), a similar development in her other powers might make her very strong. I hope instead of improving her current powers, she has found ways to develop newer abilities.

[Altharion]

i cant wait for the next chapters, since whats coming next is interesting no matter what

[ThoHell]

Alright, someone please explain what happened with Grimjow, I know he got his power back nd all but that's where I got confused. Can anyone enlighten me on his past and power and the whole sexta thing.

OH MAN AND ANOTHER THING DRIVING ME CRAZY, Orihime and Chad got their power from being exposed to Ichigo's overflowing power. So doesn't that make their power merely a part of his, since it's only a fraction of the power they obtained being exposed to Ichigo's power? SO WHAT ALL CAN ICHIGO DO AND WHY DOESN"T IT BOTHER ANYONE ELSE BUT ME?? *Pants pants*

[Scarlet]

sexta means 6 He's the 6th espada.

[neodrag38]

It was an ok chap. Nice to see the annoying Luppi pwned hard.

Their power was catalyzed by being near him, but it is still part of Chad and Orihime, not part of Ichigo. Thing of his power as a bottle-opener. He opened the caps of the bottles that held their powers, but the powers inside those bottles have nothing to do with the bottle-opener.

Since Aizen just explained that Orihime's power is Reality Alteration, I think she can do just about anything that she can imagine. Perhaps the only limit is how much energy she has to use for changing reality. Using her power tires her out. That and her imagination may be the only limits she possesses.

And remembering the picture she drew of "My Future Self," she's got a heck of an imagination!

[hdx514]

that picture of her futher self reminds me of ulquiorra. maybe it was meant to be a sign~

aizen's explanation of orihime's powers was most interesting. according to him, she's capable of "status refusal", and the ability to further limit, reject, negate rewind and do whatever she wants to the current condition of any designated target. also, though my japanese sucks, but he definitely said something along the lines of "orihime's abilities going beyond the manipulation of the four dimensions, effortlessly crossing the boundary into the realm of GOD (in other words, kubo)"

so orihime is the key, she makes the espadas practically invincible, and aizen could probably use her god-defying "status refusal" powers to enter the king's dimension without the royal key, on the other hand she might be the single most effective weapon against aizen's zanpakutou. her powers are definitely beyond the poor aizen, since he's only capable of creating illusions of an alternate reality, oh how lame. she just gotta "data-drain" him back to the stone age and ask someone as retarded as omaeda to beat the crap out of him

[Snubben_Pierre]

i love that they might start having focus on tatsuki and friends.. maybe ichigo will be their bottle opener sometime also.. only speculations but it would be very fun.. then it would be more diffrent kind of powers..

for inoue, i believe im starting to hate her, she went to hueco mundo because she didnt want her friends hurt right?? why the hell would she heal someone that will hurt her friends/other people...she is so stupid..

Her powers are intresting though,she should be able to revive people or?? since only changing the event should really make her able to use resurrection skills..

Why should she refuse?

Hime refuses to heal Grimmjow.
---> Aizen orders his Espadas to kill her friends if she still refuse...
---> Hime has to heal to save her friends...

She knows that this are the Bad Guys. Beeing not cooperative will only bring danger for her friends. And maybe torture for her...

[yuchan]

Geez, Kubo must be in a sadistic mood lately. Ever since Orihimes powers have gotten stronger, we've been seeing people getting blown and ripped/beat to pieces. Not complaining but kinda odd for Bleach. I expect blood and guts in HxH but not Bleach. Just as long as Chad doesn't lost arms in the fashion he did earlier i'll be alright.

[Lotiman]

Wow...Orihime power is amazing!!! Now I understand why she always said "I reject". But the reject thing is quite logical for healing but how about her attack?

[hdx514]

by rejecting the "current condition" of the target and desginating a "previous condition" at a much earlier time she could significantly level down/data drain her opponent. say in the most extreme case, rewind aizen's condition back 1000 years to the point where he was still a living human being, and butchering him with a meat cleaver or something. not to mention that theoretically she could nullify any attack and dispel any status alignments like aizen's illusion however powerful they are because technically she's just getting back to the time before the attack had commenced. that's why aizen said her abilities went beyond the limits set by god.
