It'll probably be a profitable venture even if they didn't change the ending thanks to nostalgiafags

I'd also add Ichibe vs YHVH to the list of good fights but I agree with the rest.

>forgetting Mask
Villainous scum

There were a few good fights but people mostly forget about them because they were in the first half of the arc.

As soon as the plot moved from soul society to the soul king's dimension and all the big 5 sternritter turned out to be borderline unkillable eldritch gods the arc took a gigantic nosedive.

Lets be realistic. If a Bleach anime ever happened it would put abnormal strain on Pierrot and Black Clover's production quality sinks even lower. Only way I see it happening is if BC moves on to a different (better) studio once its 102 episode contract with Pierrot ends, since they still have the rights to the Bleach anime. Hopefully that's the case so BC gets the quality anime it deserves.

If delusional Bleachfags were realistic they'd know the Bleach anime is never returning.

Pierrot managed Bleach and Naruto simultaneously for years. Juggling Bleach, BC and Bort at the same time might be too much even for them though, so they would need to put one of them on hiatus.

When people say there were no good fights in the final arc what they mean is that there were no good ichigo fights

The main character not doing anything for 300 chapters and then one shotting the final boss is inexcusable. Sure everyone wanted to see the unrevealed bankais but not at the expense of everything else.

so what you're saying is ichigo's mom was a necrophile

Ichigo's bankai was also a meme.

That's not desperation, but rather wondering about Pierrot, who themselves are clearly IchiRuki fags. Which itself makes me highly doubt that they ever finish anime, unless above happens.

One question: why do shonen protagonists that go through a timeskip for their happy ending and become dads always end up with JUST hair?

>April fools joke in March

SP aren’t IRfags, only Kudo is a confirmed IRfag. The only thing they did was add more filler for a ship that was popular, and that’s just good business. They also added filler shit for the other ships. Hell, IH was the first one to get a hand-holding filler scene.

Same thing it always does, did you really not get that it was simply a representation of 100% of Ichigo's power? That is literally what 'Bankai' is in the most literal sense possible.

The OP obviously doesn't care about any reboot. They just care about (You)s

>'fuck making sense' -kubo2016

Friendly reminder that Pierrot shipped IchiRuki so hard they made multiple shipping AMV's and an entire shipping episode. Fucking ridiculous.

It is good ship to be fair.
But Kubo decided to go with IchiHime so desperate IchiRukifags should shut up and accept reality.

This. I'd be down for a reboot if it was a filler SoL arc but otherwise, nope, keep that shit away from me.

Perfectly executed.

The final arc had some great moments. The anime returning would give us the chance to experience the final arc the way it was suppose to be since we now have the novels to fill in the blanks. It would be even better if SP got more info from Kubo himself.

It took me about ten seconds to get the joke, now I'm embarrassed.

What exactly is moe about Bleach SoL? You powerlevel fags are retarded. The fights in Bleach were subpar shit the charisma of the characters barely made up for.

Just look at the archive and see how many thread are about hyping the anime's return and how many are about shiting on bleach in general

How did Bleach manage to stave off the temptation of "continuations" for so damn long?
The post-2010s landscape resembles so much of their previous generation (sequels, spin-offs, reboots galore) that it's basically just a boulevard of early-2000s' nostalgia bait, to the point that newer torch-bearers could only be mere bench-warmers that pay lip services rather than reinventing the wheel.
Can you imagine telling yourself that the power vacuum left behind by the recently concluded "Big 3" would be filled by those very same "Big 3" you'd just finished years prior?
I wouldn't be surprise that by the time nu-bleach or Detergent runs for the 2020 Shōnen Nominación, its nearest competition will either be the offsprings of their 2010s rivals, or the grand-offsprings of their pre-2000s former rivals vying for relevency yet again.
Because when Bleacho mucho hits screens, the newest generation will not only have never heard of it, but also never knew what it feels like to say Sayonara to their childhood shonen jumps (since they were never allowed to be concluded anymore). And judging by the string of failures in revival from every other genres in recent years, it's highly doubtful that there's anything for dedfags to get mildly excited over.

god, who fucking cares

You since you replied

It would be a bit weird to think about continuations considering the series barely managed to wrap up in the first place. Burn The Witch did kind of tease something with the Soul Society West Branch and the letters spelling out Bleach along with a subtitle about not being done with the world yet. Then again Kubo did say state that the one-shot wouldn't become a series so who knows. I kind of expect to see something eventually happen on that front but it could be years off.

>It's not just shipping.
It's related to shipping most of the time. Sure people disliked her for not being a fighter along with her "Kurosaki-kuns" during HM arc while the anime was airing, but majority of her hate is shipping related. Why do you think it really took off when during the HM arc, the arc she confessed to Ichigo? It's not hard to figure out. Had she never confessed, her hate would have never gotten to such ridiculous levels.

The artstyle is ugly to me. That artist has been drawing Rukia for about 3 years now, and she still can't get her character right. I'm no artist myself, but wouldn't one improve in 3 years? I've come across nice IR fanart, sure it's rare these days, but it exists.

user we're fucked no matter what its never going to turn out well when it comes to shit like this, it just ends up badly and we end up disappointed.

Kubo really dropped the ball with them. After all the hype and buildup they got Ichibei was the only one that actually seemed impressive. Nimaya had a decent showing initially but was then 1-shotted by the same enemy that Shunsui pushed to Vollstandig with just his shikai. The other 3 were utterly useless. If the anime ever happens and they'd be willing to make one correction to the story I would prefer they give the 0 squad a decent showing instead of changing the ending or something.

I guess so, but there's no denying they did the other three besides Ichibei and Nimaiya dirty. Meanwhile Lille Barro gets wanked to hell to back AND somehow survives this whole thing. Okay, I think Lille's pretty cool too, but still

No way. Niazol's ability kept Kirinji from reaching him but he wouldn't have been able to take Kirinji down either. Not only is Kirinji absurdly fast as shown when he blitzed Soi-Fon but he's also the most talented healer in SS. If Unohana managed to bring Zaraki back from lethal injuries dozens of times I think Kirinji should be able to recover from whatever hits Niazol might be able to land on him.

I misspoke- the deal with Niazol was that his abiity was preventing any of Kirinji's hits from landing on Yhwach, which Kirinji's impressive speed couldn't handle. Based on this and how Shutara was able to get into Mayuri's lab, she seemed to have some sort of spatial warping ability as well as illusions.

this panel is very bad and looked very out of place when I read that chapter

Level 5 Secret-tier post

Didn't they only confirm the novel characters? The rest was just speculation about what characters might be coming next, but that had nothing to do with the actual developers. The fact that they rolled out the novel characters first seems to suggest there's some kind of a rights issue when it comes to hiring new voice actors for the final arc characters, which might point to something actually being planned with regards to the anime.

Looks fine to me

Novel characters are probably Tokinada, Hikone, Bankai Hisagi and Shinji and they still have a couple of TYWB characters to pull out, but after that the next logical step would be quincies.

The logical step was quincies with Yhwach but that didn't happen. I think the BBS team is stalling for time with these entirely new forms like Ichigo and Ulquiorra, because something is keeping them from casting new voice actors. The novels gave them some breathing room and there's still some shinigami left but after that they're in trouble if something doesn't change.

Don't even get it myself. Gerard took on the fandom's biggest wet dreams and was winning.

>Kills him off pointlessly

Why not just let Byakuya nuke his head in that combination and spare yourself the other panels? Why did Kubo revive Gerard then kill him off for no reason?

Zehahahahaha

>Why did Kubo revive Gerard
To keep consistency. Gerard ability is to not die from regular wounds
>inb4 but why give him that ability in the first place
To make a point. Gerard is a part of the SK, the literal god of the bleach universe. Like Lille said when he fought Shunsui, "mere" shinigami cant hope to defeat godly beings
>then kill him off for no reason?
The reason was Yhwach wanted his power

Yhwach had no need of Gerard's power and he accomplished nothing with it.
>To keep consistency. Gerard ability is to not die from regular wounds
Hitsugaya's ice powers could easily have taken care of this caveat. If he can't be killed then freeze him forever.

>Like Lille said when he fought Shunsui, "mere" shinigami cant hope to defeat godly beings
And yet Pernida who was also a part of the SK died because it ate the wrong thing. Not even something like a hougyoku but just one of Mayuri's inventions. Gerard's defeat could have easily been explained as him just having reached his limit or perhaps the shinigami managed to destroy some sort of a core that the rest of the body reformed around. Hitsugaya's freezing his ability also would have worked considering it negated his other abilities no problem.

>Yhwach had no need of Gerard's power
How you so sure?
>Hitsugaya's ice
Gerard broke free from his ice before no problem, he was still moving when Byakuya launched his attack

It's amazing how Ywhach managed to be so much of a power-hungry pragmatist that he somehow looped back into being suicidally stupid for the sake of sucking up a bit more power for himself. Imagine if Ywhach had decided to leave a few of his strongest loyal Quincies around to stick with him for the final stand. Sure, he'd be sacrificing some power himself, but Ywhach was already strong enough to solo Ichibei at that point. Imagine the absolute hack fuckery it would take to defeat Ywach + Angel Bird Lille + Giant Boosted Gerard?

I don't even want to me in the screencap. Great job.

>Pernida who was also a part of the SK died because it ate the wrong thing
I don't think it actually was killed, only rendered immobile and the cancer puddles are still conscious cursing Mayuri

>How you so sure?
Because he was already leagues above everyone else and could have destroyed the world at literally any time he wanted.

>Gerard broke free from his ice before no problem, he was still moving when Byakuya launched his attack
What do you think was the point of Byakuya attacking him in the first place? Shits and giggles when they know Gerard will regen? He blew off his head to stop Gerard from moving anymore. If Kubo wanted, he could damn well have written Gerard off there by having Hitsugaya freeze the rest of Gerard's body to the bone and keeping him suspended permanently.

That sounds suspicious to me since Mayuri made no effort to try and contain it before he went to sleep right next to its remains. I think he might have actually used the very same healing pod that he took Hitsugaya out of, but didn't ask him to freeze Perdina or anything.

>Imagine the absolute hack fuckery it would take to defeat Ywach + Angel Bird Lille + Giant Boosted Gerard
Fuck, man. Ywhach doing his thing with Giant Gerard tearing down buildings and smashing the fuck out of everything and Bird Lille firing city-buster blasts all over the damn place to back him up

Invaders? Rukia was always by far the most popular girl on Ruki/a/.

>could have destroyed the world at literally any time he wanted
Yet he didn't try it before, maybe because he actually couldn't?
>If Kubo wanted
But he didn't want. He chose to have Gerard regenerate immediately

>Yet he didn't try it before, maybe because he actually couldn't?
He was the one holding the world together with the power of the soul king. What the hell did you mean by this? Do you think Yhwach leaving Ichigo alive was also because he couldn't kill the half-dead, powerless, sword-broken ginger? He was taking the piss for the entire last stretch.

>But he didn't want. He chose to have Gerard regenerate immediately
My point exactly. Kubo made a completely pointless decision that had no effect on the narrative but to make the readers go "???" on Yhwach's un-pragmatic team-killing,

>What the hell did you mean by this?
That Yhwach didn't do it before because he couldn't. He had plenty of time since absorbing the SK yet didn't try until after absorbing Ichigo's and Gerard's powers too

>That Yhwach didn't do it before because he couldn't. He had plenty of time since absorbing the SK yet didn't try until after absorbing Ichigo's and Gerard's powers too
He didn't try because he didn't want to, you idiot. As I explained clearly, he is the one holding the worlds together as the SK in the first place. Yhwach does a ton of pointless/senseless shit because he feels like it. I even used letting Ichigo live (which later fucked Yhwach over) as an example. Yhwach did the same shit with Uryu too, who he never needed in the first place.

>he didn't want to
Nice headcanon
>you idiot
Nice ad hominem

Okay, while we're on the subject of Ywhach's elite squad, what exactly happened to Lille? Last I remember, he got turned into several flamingo owl things and just kind of disappeared. What even made him split into the weakened birds again?

That's it, so far the novels only says it took several shinigami days to "remove" him from the seireitei. Maybe when the rest is translated we'll know more
>What even made him split into the weakened birds again?
Nanao's family zanpakuto, which is used to disperse the power of devine beings

>Source: your ass

Didn't the novel say he was eventually disposed of after a few days?

It was more along the lines of him being driven out of the Seireitei after somehow managing to cause trouble for several days straight. Nothing states he's been killed though

Maybe it was a bad translation but the word use was "removed", meaning, they made him run away

He must be dead since nothing of him has been seen or mentioned after that.

Like how Grimmjow must've been dead for all that time between get BTFO by Nnoitra and showing up to help the heroes later on because we never saw or heard from him? If a character in a shounen isn't absolutely confirmed dead, you can expect a comeback. Or that the mangaka forgot about them.

not even that, fucking hanataro was up there, his hability is literally cure damage!

Ichigo falls in love with a Rukia.

Unable to confess he's gifted by Kubo with Rukia's phone number. Never minding the strange reiatsu, he immediately call her, and he's overjoyed to find out that she has a crush on him as well.

But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day's confessions to the girl, she only looks at him with a disgusted expression. After some investigation, he finds out that the girl he called is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn't exist in the living world at all. She is the girl's Vanderreich counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC's own Soul Society self, who too is blissfully unaware of her crush.

Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer The Heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of KUBO.

Second invasion pretty solid (using biological warfare against Quincy is real good)

fights including Komamura, Renji. Rukia, and Soi Fon are all very solid

Juha Bach is smart and knows to stay the hell away from the main character

fight with Ichibei and JUha Bach is decent

Actually killing Reio and not undoing it

Aizen Cameo is actually well thought out

Mayuri's fight with Left Hand is good

Urahara's and Yoruichi's fight with Asken is the best one post Reio death

Ichigo actually using multiple powers against main antagonist

So many characters and situations that were not shown at all like Giriko doing anything or Izuru fighting the ridiculous flamingos after he was magically healed by Mayuri (which was bs, but whatever.)

The last arc WAS axed. They clearly forced Kubo to rush the ending and the manga suffered because of that.

Yamster was just there to give the fan favorites a reason to be in the story. He should have just been like those VCs that Ichigo bodied in the SS arc, to hype Ichigo's power upgrades. Same thing with Gerard, which was more annoying since said fan favorites were all supposed to be fucking dead by that time.

Considering how Sorachi described the process of ending a manga on Shounen Jump, Bleach's rushed ending might be all on Kubo. The artist gives a warning to shounen jump about the series ending 6 months or so before, and afterwards they start arranging for a replacement series, so after a certain point the series has to end there even if the artist now wants more time.

What might have happened to Bleach is exactly the same situation, just with Kubo dropping everything and rushing the ending rather than attempting to extend the series since he clearly was tired of working on it.

>Catalog
I'm going to tell you this right now:

The Zero Squad wasn't exactly important. Their narrative wasn't introduced till Turn Back the Pendulum back in volume 36.

Sure, knowing who these guys were and why they were chosen could be said to be good questions to answer, but what exactly justified their existence beyond that point?

The Quincy existed since Volume 4 and they had been given backstory, conflict, motivation and a simple array of powers between volumes 5-6. Afterwords, we heard more about them during volume 14-15 with the Mayuri vs Uryu fight where we saw their final release form.

By the time Ryuuken came around and mocked Uryu's self proclaimed title of "The Last Quincy", there wasn't a question of whether or not they were going to get an arc.

HOWEVER, the same can't be said about the Zero Squad since we heard only that they were a "nonexistent" Squad that were chosen to protect Reio. Also, Hikifune was their most recent member in Turn Back the Pendulum.

What exactly is there to justify to the audience that we need to see every single shikai, bankai and trick up all 5 of these characters sleeves

The issue is not that they needed to get some kind of further characterization or to have a bigger role, it's that they were built up to be something really impressive but then easily lost against enemies that the normal captains defeated. It was extremely underwhelming. Note that the problem is not that they lost the fight, because people aren't calling Yamamoto underwhelming, it's that they lost in a way that just made them look bad. People also like to see different characters display all of their abilities and look impressive even when it's not particularly relevant to the plot, so these very distinct characters not getting a chance to go all out is disappointing.

>Sure, knowing who these guys were and why they were chosen could be said to be good questions to answer
I get that your point is the the zero squad wasn't that important in the grand scheme of thing, but I want to point out those questions were still somewhat answered

I never implied otherwise, in fact their role as inventors and historians was a lot more interesting than simply being 'strong guys". Plus we got plenty of insight as to what kind of powers they posess without actually seeing their released zans. In Nimiya's case specifically this would be redundant as he has several Zans and Sayafushi.

To be fair the "normal" captains were just as outmatched as the RG was, and none of them were actually able to beat them individually. In Gerard's case he wasn't defeated at all.

>but then easily lost against enemies that the normal captains defeated
We literally didn't see the fight. There's no way of knowing how much they struggled. And saying the normal captains defeated their elite quincy opponents is oversimplifying the whole thing. Askin is the weakest elite and he stomped Grimmjow, Ichigo, Yoruichi, her brother and Urahara. He was taken out by a backstab from a recovered Grimmjow. And even the Nel and to go rescue them from Askin's poison ball.
>people aren't calling Yamamoto underwhelming
You'd be surprised.
Not that user btw.

There is. We know Nimaya went down in seconds to non-Vollstandig Lille, we know Perdina's finger chain was in place so he never even opened his hand, the 0 squad's corpses are intact and the pathway is almost completely intact so no one used any particularly destructive attacks, etc. It really doesn't look like they put up much of a fight, not even enough to push the elites into their second forms.

... is this your first time seeing photo shop?

This is all just assumption, Nimaiya could have easily been healed by Kirinji, releasing Volstandig would have ben redundant as they each had massive Reishi wings thanks to Yhwach, ect. The outcome of the battle was always going to be dictated by the winner between Yhwach or Ichibei; hell, with the Almighty Yhwach could dictate the outcome of the battle regardless of the RG's efforts.

This was the best design by far.

It all went downhill from here.

How retarded can you faggots possibly be?

>went downhill form there
Arrancar arc (21-32) is a good arc
TYBW (55-74) is the 3rd best arc of the series.

>It all went downhill from here
I can't think of a bigger shitpost than this dumbshit.

It's not about what was going to happen plot-wise or what could have theoretically occurred off-screen, it's what happened on-screen and what little we saw of the aftermath. Nothing indicates they put up a fight. They were always going to lose, but they could have at least gone down with a bang like Ichibei, Yama or Unohana did and leave an impression.

Goodbye.

For real tho, I'd like to give bleach a shot since I never read it. Even with its supposed issues, is it still a fun read? That's all that matters to me desu

Its too late, I don't care about the series anymore.

If you read it in bulk it great. Read it on mangasee, they have the viz scans

>he says as he posts itt

We needed a Yachiru,Liltotto and Lilynette sheanigans OVA ;_;

It's fun if you're into battle shounen, but don't go in expecting some kind of a masterfully written plot. It's also a relatively quick read for something its size since Kubo likes to do slow cinematic scenes.

>It's not about what was going to happen plot-wise or what could have theoretically occurred off-screen
Yes it is?

>it's what happened on-screen and what little we saw of the aftermath. Nothing indicates they put up a fight.
Narratively speaking this isn't true, you're just choosing to make this assumption despite it not making sense in context.

>Yes it is?
No it's not. I don't know if you're the guy that jumped in somewhere in the middle but if you follow the post chain the argument is about why people were so disappointed in the 0 squad. I understand that their role in the plot was to lose, but that doesn't make them any more impressive. The fact that they might have done something off-screen isn't going to make people think they're cool any more than Chad doing things off-screen is going to make him look cool. Maybe the reason he was always hugging the ground was because he was keeping the Hell King at bay, but we never got to see that.

>Narratively speaking this isn't true, you're just choosing to make this assumption despite it not making sense in context.
How does the narrative contradict that? We saw no evidence of them putting up a struggle, no damage to the surroundings, no injuries on the elites, no remarks about how tough they were, nothing. The fight was so uneventful that Kubo didn't even bother showing us a single panel of it after Nimaya got shot.

>no damage to the surroundings
The tree cage regenerates
>no injuries on the elites
Gerard, Pernida and Askin all have healing abilities to some extent. Lille is more about avoiding damage

>I understand that their role in the plot was to lose
Clearly your the one who didn't follow the reply chain, I've explained twice over what their role in the plot is.

>How does the narrative contradict that?
Because we saw the battle up to that point? Not seeing the conclusion fight doesn't mean you get to dismiss the entirety of what came before that.

>The tree cage regenerates
Actually it didn't after Pernida destroyed it just before Nimaya was killed. I was mostly referring to the platform that they were standing on. If Lille went full trumpet or Gerard used his giant form it would have been destroyed easily. Both of them destroyed large parts of the cities they fought in.
>Gerard, Pernida and Askin all have healing abilities to some extent
Sure, but we didn't see a single scratch, a torn piece of clothing or anything. Not even a comment about the fight.

>I've explained twice over what their role in the plot is
Again, its not about their role in the plot, it's about why they're disappointing to many people. You're not going to look at a disappointing fight and say "well I knew he was going to lose so that was actually really cool". Ichibei had a very impressive showing even though he was destined to lose as well. Can you tell me why the rest of the 0 squad couldn't get the same treatment?
>Because we saw the battle up to that point?
We saw the battle before the elites were powered up through Auswahlen, when they had no miracle or x-axis. Lille couldn't even touch Nimaya at first but after Auswahlen he killed him in seconds. There is no evidence of the 0 squad putting up any sort of a fight against the elites that the captains fought.
