Spoiler for Missing Chara:

WHERE IS YORUICHI ????

I actually wonder where Hinamori went?!?!

(correct me if im wrong, but) We haven't seen her since episode 60/61. when she rested at the 4th squads headquarters.

I actually miss her, she has such a nice personality and i love her shikai.

The answer is a spoiler . As its a filler it deviates from manga storyline so they have kinda banished the character in the filler

Well given the last we saw her she was in a coma after nearly being killed, not resting, I'm guessing she still hasn't woken up.

Hey, at least the fans aren't comparing the upper torso for some of the significant female. Haven't the fans who have watched the episode exhausted all the discussion regarding the mystery behind Ichinose's recent comeback from the dead? If not, my apology.

Btw, have you yet had any luck solving the case of how Yoshi the Hun died? Wait.. wait... better question that I'm just going to reiterate because it has been asked by few others as well.. Why is Ishida bent on killing the sky?

Agreed, which is why the comparison between these two show fails simply because it is very unlikely that Death Note will have any fillers. Personally, I would like to see a few Shounen series that actually picked up for anime adaptation after the series in question reached a satifactory resolution in its source material.

While artistically thats a good idea, making TV shows is still a business. Get em while the manga's hot as the case may be.

You mean since the filler takes place between the manga storylines, she's simply still in that coma in the filler's time period?

It's not like fillers are just the manga storyline frozen in time or anything...



And Bleach has too many characters anyway. IMO, it's not that unusual for some(like Yoruichi) to go do their own thing.

Actually yes she is frozen in time I mean she is convineantly discarded to avoid filler plot holes

Very true! Yet, the understanding doesn't lessen the frustration.

Okay, technically true...

[roffleatyou]

It's entirely possibly that I am mistaken, but wasn't Yourichi shown in the preview for next week's episode?

She's one of my favorite characters, and I thought I remembered being happy because I thought she was going to be in the next episode. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know. I'd need to rewatch it.

I suppose I should be grateful that our discussion hasn't fallen back into that particular gutter.

That was solved very quickly indeed. Ichinose never went sparkly. We saw a brief splash of blood as he was cut, then we saw his blood soaked arm lying on the ground at Yachiru's feet. (The arm was presumably still attacked to his torso.) It was implied that he was dead, but never said. Since he didn't turn into motes of energy and vanish, it wasn't demonstrated that he was dead.

Yep. The heart is a circulatory organ and apparently it circulates reiatsu as well as blood since peircing her heart stopped her ability to absorb reiatsu.

Because the sky was watching when his grandpa died. And it did nothing to help. Bastard sky.

But.. Ichinose isn't a Bounto. He's still a shinigami and a normal resident of Soul Society, if even a former one. They don't vanish on death, like when Central 46 was massacred, or when Kaien was killed by Rukia. It would stand to make sense that Ichinose didn't inherit the poofy dust death of the others.

I think the only way to negate that solution is if the remaining Bounto manages to generate/reattach a head/limb after it is completely severed from the body, even when the circulation is cut off as well.

Hopefully, Ishida will retain his unabated role, along with others (especially Rukia and Orihime) as soon as the blasted filler is mercifully done and over with.

P.S. have given Tsukino a few yummies for pointing out that Ichinose is not a bounto.

[Varis]

good to see Yoruichi in the preview. She is my favorite character as well. Although she is probably just a deus ex machina that makes sure Ichigo pulls through.


Kinda makes sense. Yoruichi could have taken out any of the bount if necessary but I bet Uruhara wanted this to be more learning experience for Ichigo. If it was Uruharas goal to destroy the bounto, they would have started to drop shorty after yoruichi found her first one.

A scene that got me thinking on that was when it was clear that Ichigo was not going to win against Karya at his manor, she jumped in, nuked the place and got back out.

[Smoke2muchBud]

Maybe Ichigo turns into his hollow self at the end of the next episode, and that's when Yoruichi comes. And then she'll either watch the battle or knock out Ichigo with one blow AGAIN, and carry him on her shoulder and dip out and Yamamoto comes and kills Kariya in an instant. u never know

That would pwn, IMO.

We all miss her dont we .. Even I was hoping to see her hmm naked atleast once in this arc . One more thing as today is the Arc Finale and all . They Should get the Hollow Mask Color Right

Indeed. Within 24 hours I'll have written up my final synopsis for the arc. I can't wait. I feel the episode is going to really r0x0r hard. And I'm quite sure that they'll make sure to color Hichigo's eyes the right color this time.

[Zu Ra]

Oops I should have said tommorow Tuesday is still the Bleach day for me .... not accustomed to Wed yet . Looking forward to another witty summary =]

[NoSanninWa]

My wit might desert me. And I'll be left saying something like this:

Spoiler for synopsis of episode 108:

Umm... Ichigo got his ass kicked by Kariya. He was looking like a total chump. Then Ichigo went hollow. It was neat. Hichigo kicked Kariya's ass and won. It was cool and stuff.

Then they said goodbye and went back to the "real world."

That would be embarassing.

Disclaimer: The above is not an actual synopsis. The episode has not yet aired. Any resemblance between this synposis and the actual episode is evidence of precognition. Or maybe I'm just a good guesser.
