*sigh*  Long rant at the end.  Ignore if necessary.

Onward. )

how many variations can we shove into ichigo before that poor boy explodes? vizored, shinigami, quincy... if this is a development that has been coming the whole time, i wish there would have been more hints to it earlier on in the series. there really were none. ichigo can't control his rietsu like a quincy, he doesn't fight like a quincy in any way (more strategic and weapon based rather than brute strength), the only thing i can think of is that one time he called up soul ribbons after ishida told him about them.

it just... yes. it feels out of tune. that's exactly it.

Great question. He is now literally everyone in Bleach.

Well, according to this chapter he wasn't able to do those things because he didn't know; being in Kirge's cage is what summoned up the apparent knowledge. But even knowing that, it seems so disjointed...

Unnecessary. What it is, is unnecessary. Bleh.

'he wasn't able to do those things because he didn't know'
which, tbh, just sounds like flawed storytelling. >>;;

i don't even know any more.

I think Kubo just gets so cluttered up with unnecessary stuff. The shinigami-hollow storyline alone, streamlined, would make for amazing stuff, but piling on Quincy and Ichigo being a Quincy and it's just too much...stuff. Dragged out, yes, in the wrong places, where there's resolution to other things that I've been waiting years for.

Yeah, it hurts like crazy, huh? I feel disappointed and kind of heartbroken, and if nii-sama dies I think I'm just going to crack open. At this rate, I'm beginning to suspect he will.

Honestly, the Masaki-is-a-Quincy theory has been coming and going around the internet for ages. Ages. Ever since there was that publishing mistake in one of Aizen's lines back in FKT everyone was raving about Masaki having a deep crazy secret. And lord I didn't want it to be like that because I loved Masaki in her simple, human existance. Back then it was the most crackish and stupid theory in the world and now I'm so pissed at Kubo I don't even have it in me to "defend" his story-telling anymore. This new "twist" is so totally "last minute pulled out of meh-ass".

I just hope we get to HM soon. For lord's sake, Urahara has had that mysterious blad on his face for FOUR fucking months. I hardly even remember there was Urahara in HM to begin with.

This chapter was weird... and I mean really weird :/ Which kind of summerises your ranting Rii I guess...
AND the last page? I got this Star Wars-ish feeling reading it... you know, "I'm your father" blah blah...
I mean... PLEASE DON'T' Y_Y

But! Sousuke... *giggles*
Ofc we could count on him to do mischief even from prison... :) That's my almost-god! I love you sooo much! *_* ... *aehm*

Anyway... including Urahara, there's gonna have to be some major explaining here, because frankly Bleach is starting to make no sense... at least to me. *sigh*

I will forever admire the way you can put into words what I thought about the chapter so precisely. It's amazing! Really! It is! Anyway, I agree with you on everything you said and to add my two cents, Ichigo being part Quincy makes Ishida turning on Ichigo less...plausible? ...maybe. I'm still worried about this, as you can see ( ... )
