HA! Even Kurotsuchi and Hiraku agree that those four were stupid in using their bankai like that xD
But really the stupidest of them all is Renji...the guy just took you're Captain's bankai easily and your great plan is to use your own!? Agreed. |

(Yep, Kubo just prioritised Akon over Kenpachi)

I'm going to try to get inside kubo's mind about this mess of a plan. i think it is actually as simple as this: which captains' bankai is everyone tired of seeing? well, byakuya and hitsugaya for sure. komomara's was never that good to begin with and soi fon's just sucked... so i think i'll just 86 them at the start of the fight so we can get to the fancy new ones faster also, what if the stern ritters can only absorb 1 bankai at a time. which means kyouraku could fight any of the 5 with bankais with his bankai ~just a thought |

Awwww... his bankai's not THAT bad. I'll take his before I take Soifon's, Komamura's, or Ikkaku's. That's for damn sure. lol
*edit* One more thing worth adding is that according to Kubo back in the "Repeat & Reboot" omakes a few months ago, Renji's bankai has supposedly already changed. So I'm expecting Renji to have discovered a few new tricks with Zabimaru over the course of the timeskip. It might be one reason why Kubo's making Renji hold out on us right now. |

from the way ichigo is drawn and the absence of any quotes on it like there usually is, I'm sure that the Grimmjow, Ichigo, Uryuu pic WAS fanart. The only 'color' page this chapter was the 'March fo the Starcross 2' which just took a panel froma few chapters ago and added red and gray outlines if I'm not mistaken
Anyways, didn't Byakuya tell Renji last chapter to use his bankai if anything went wrong? That's exactly what Renji was doing...so if anything, Byakuya is the one at fault. Good to see the mass communication Kido come back, but a bit too late =/. Old man with a gun vs Kyoraku is badass but he looks generic enough to be killed off. Seems the only Quincy that will actually survive (if any die at all mind you), will be the loli, the guy with the hood and scar, buckbeard (we still calling the leader that?) and that white haired byakuya dude. The others seemed expendable enough in character design to not be around too long, although i DO want to see that Luchadore come back and join the fight against Byakuya and Renji--hope he doesn't get forgotten like Gantenbein from Hueco Mundo... |

So we had a whole chapter of soul society panicing because they can't use bankai?
Sounds like posters on an MMO forum because their favorite class/ability just got nerfed and they don't know what to do now. |

Wow, pretty nice fan art then
Is kubo really trying to play the 'these opponents are worthy of our bankai's card?.... I do recall an entire group of these shinigami going up against aizen and his espada and almost dying without even considering using their bankais

And it was totally stupid for her to lose it like that, because she's the only one who can actually use her bankai under current conditions - just do it in "unhonorary" way from long distance. (unless there's someone else with Long Range bankai) And then move in with shikai against a weakened opponent (if it won't die from that kind of blast). I somehow doubt those Quincies can steal bankais from a mile away, especially if they don't know what's coming. Basically, her bankai is ideal in the situation they found themselves in. |
