So sexy it hurts

Kubo's notes to self.
Hmm, I need to start a new arc. I think it’s time to do something exciting, give the readers something they want. How about finishing up some loose threads? Explain what happened to the remaining espada who didn’t get killed, such as Neliel. I guess I could develop some of the characters they already know and love, add some more depth. Maybe build a little on a romance between Ichigo and Rukia, or maybe someone else? I mean I got so many characters in this manga, maybe I should actually let some of the good guys die for a change to give Bleach its sense of much needed danger back? ...Ooor I could always just add a bunch of uninteresting characters and a half-assed plot that involves achieving power and killing stuff...

Not impressed with the new bad guys, more limbs being chopped off just makes me think gid these guys are chumps, even if done by the big bad, still lame. So I'm guessing there will be a reason why they have waited till now to put their evil plans of destruction to play. Cause if there was a time for destroying SS it would have been just after the fight with Aizen. You know kick when they are down type of thing cause I'd certainly hate to think theres some sense of honor or something involved in all this>_< And so the question now is, how will the group(that includes all main characters and captains and what not) fair against a enemy that was able to escape from the strongest Reaper there is so easily, I look forward to seeing how that goes.

Someone needs to teach Kubo how to draw characters.
It was bad enough every arc since SS has had a Aizen look alike main villain, now the entire squad of villains are a bunch of Aizen clones with a different haircut and clothes. And it's not even just about Aizen. The cast keeps getting bigger but the variety just hits new lows each time.

If Kubo could do it over, I'm pretty sure he'd make the Gotei 13 into the Gotei 6 to get rid of some of these characters. Could beef up the role of the VC to not have such a huge gap between captain and vice captain.
For example, Komamura could be a great VC to someone yet still retain his strength. Last edited by Calca; 2012-03-08 at 17:24. |

White Quincy clothes and a cape They can nullify or steal bankai Well if thy can steal bankai that means they can take it and use for themselves I hope it is nullify and in fact it is more likley nullify I mean on page 10 after that scene on bankai Ivan yells "Why wont your bankai disappear!!!!! "

Kubo's thoughts: "Ok this is the final arc I'm gonna draw. After this Bleach ends. How do I start? Oh I know. I'll make a 5 day limit until everythings is over. That'll make sure that the arc is very long"

Why have Sasakibe, someone who doesn't have bankai, point out that they can nullify bankai? How would he find out? If they can use bankai, he would know from seeing them release. If they can only nullify it he couldn't know unless he saw someone attempt to use bankai against them.

but I agree, even assuming he went bankai would be out-of-context and too confusing for the reader btw, I wonder if it is possible to detect a 100% genuine bankai release. Byakuya was sure about Ichigo's Bankai not being a bankai and thought it was something else. So basically anyone with a release-type-power could just yell bankai to troll everyone.

And, he didn't tell that they can nullify bankai, he said that they can bankai. At least in the translation that I did read. What actually makes me think - WHY would they bankai against a Vice Captain? |

most artists have preferences in drawing faces and characters and they tend to fall into the trap of drawing the same faces because of that. the more diligent ones make a conscious effort to differentiate their characters by giving them distinctive features, silhouettes and such. but the lazier ones don't put as much care and time. that's why i admire artists who have unique aesthetics and tend to draw their characters with distinctive features and designs because this takes more time, effort and imagination. as someone in this forums once said, kubo's art is like fool's gold, at first glance you'd find yourself drawn by its flash and glitter. but at closer look, you'll find that his art is not as creative or cool as you thought it was. his characters may look pretty but they look the same. the only difference is the hair, costume and eye color.

Remember the Quincies said it was easy to get in more prooff why the can nullify bankais. It makes it easier to beat the shingami.
