BLEACH : Storytime volume 20

With the anime returning next year, the misconceptions, personal opinions everyone has about Bleach and some hate that it gets, I thought it would be great to have a re-read with Zig Forums. It's a series that I adore with all of its flaws and shortcomings from beginning to end. Let's hope everyone is able to put their personal biases aside and can read the manga for what Kubo was trying to tell and then give their opinion on that at the end. Besides, it's been years since the manga ended and many forgot the details, so it would be good to refresh our memory before watching the anime next year. Maybe your opinion on the series could change, becoming more positive or negative.

Yes; there's a reason he keeps them closed too, but you won't learn about that for quite some time.

Also Gin is best boy and deserved better.

Almost every soul reaper in this arc is more interesting than who they came to be by the end of it all. Savor it.

The only one I think wasnt explored well was hitsugaya, the rest all got better or stayed the same

>Roar
So she has the same release command as Renji?

Shouldn't the particles also be way heavier here?

And who do they come to be?

I forgot if this was in supplemental material, I speedread, or if it was a theory, but i remember reading that the Soul Reapers acted more emotionally in this arc because Aizen was messing with their heads in the background through his Zanpakuto's power.

It probably just sets from whatever weight it is to "mist weight"

GIN and his "IM THE BAD GUY" thing going on

They don't seem any more emotional here than later in the series.

Yeah she simps for Aizen

ENTER AIZEN

Gin was the obvious red herring, but I was suspecting Yoruichi and Urahara had a ploy

What does Aizen smell like?

He dicked her SO hard

I think in some interview Kubo said that Aizen just sort of came to him after the death and went from there with Hinataro being the origional because he was being pushed around by Ichigos team and no one would have suspected that. Then he decided Hinataro was too much of a pussy or something I think.

the best part is he had no real reason to even do this; he just kind of felt like it because her immense devotion really grated on him.

That's some quick math, Izuru
