So we're talking about an ex-substitute shinigami with reawakened shinigami reiatsu potentially killing a human being with recently acquired hollow-based powers. Central 46 would already have reason enough to take him in just for making the decision to become a hollow-shinigami hybrid. But for all we know, the act of killing a human being with such powers may be deemed more offensive and threatening than a normal hollow killing a human. In other words, this could be the act that officially brands Ichigo a threat to the human world. |

Who's to say Tsukishima is human? We don't know the origin of Fullbringer powers, except that they were born that way. Being able to use reiatsu, the exceptional abilities Fullbringers have... I wouldn't say that's completely human.
Also the scenes with Kisuke and Isshin are freaking killing me. What the hell are they up to?

*edit* Of course Kubo could reveal Tsukishima to be anything but human at any time he wants. But keep in mind, I'm fully aware of the fact that I'm only supporting a mere possibility based solely on the information we've been given up till this point. |

Hmmm well human or no human, what does it matter in the end. Tsukishima obviously has a very dangerous power and he's using it to directly influence and interfere with the world of the living. It reminds me a bit of the Quincy and the Bounto, and it's still something Shinigami should be concerned about. Having said that, it strikes me as odd that we haven't heard from the Gotei 13 up until now.
Human or no human, Tsukishima is up to no good. We've seen for a fact that he has altered the memories of living beings.

Once again, scenes with Urahara and Isshin keep me interested. I'm not sure what to think about Yukio's mansion. Given his powers, the inside of it could be a very weird funhouse-type place. I'd rather avoid the heroes having to find their way through another maze/palace like Las Noches.

I'd bet the solution to all this has something to do with that glowy-zanpakuto thing Isshin's carrying.

I've been thinking about that "This is the site of the Final Battle...!" from the last page...
What is thinking Kubo?. Isshin and Uruhara along with Ishida will go there too to battle against Tsukishima too?.

But seriously, I could see Ichigo going in for the kill (after much thought) just to have someone interrupt the blow. Much like how Kishi has spared Sasuke from officially killing off anyone that would put him beyond redemption, I suppose it's not very likely at all for Kubo to have Ichigo do something that would push him over that line-of-no-return. But still, just the fact that he was willing to consider it is pretty damn interesting IMO as it shows a potential shift in change in Ichigo's personality. |

I'm pretty sure he won't do it, though, so we'll probably never know for sure either way. |

This seems to be more of a transition chapter than anything else as it's mostly Ichigo and Ginjo discussing what to do next and it looks they're going to have to confront Tsukishima soon.
I wonder if those scenes with Isshin and Urahara discussing have anything to do with Tsukishima. I suspect that they haven't been brainwashed; if they had been, it probably would have been shown in previous chapters to increase the 'oh crap' factor considering how powerful they are. Not to mention that Isshin has been conspicuously absent from his home. Perhaps they'll help out in the upcoming battle? |

On the other hand, a hypothetical instance of a human/ex-shinigami possessing a combination of powers that central46 has openly expressed extreme fear and loathing towards, and then using that power to attempt to kill a living human (without first being granted any permission to do so) is an entirely different story. What's more is that the perpetrator would be the same being who's managed to prove to all Soul Society that if given the powers in question (that they fear so much), his potential strength far surpasses anything Soul Society could contain. For all intents and purposes, it's easy for me to see why the higher powers that be would potentially become very weary of Ichigo even if he had no intentions of committing manslaughter in the end. However the act of doing so (or even attempting to do so) using the powers he's gained, could make him officially a threat in the eyes of the authoritative figures in question.

At this stage, it's still hard to say how this arc fits into the big picture. Hopefully we'll get some clues and answers in the upcoming chapters. Tsukishima is still a mysterious character; the only things we know for sure about him is that he's targeting Ichigo and his friends, he's a Fullbringer who's familiar with Ginjo and co., and some idea of how his power works. Everything else about him is up to speculation so far. |
