The Bleach Fan Club

So we can at least call him "The Emperor", now.

It hasn't been 5 days yet, has it? I guess they're biggest fear must be Ichigo, if they're willing to invade SS when Ichigo is in HM.

I count 7 guys on the splash page. Maybe 8 if you include the Emperor. I'm too lazy to check up on the first page of the new arc (which would show us the other guys again).

Poor Nel XD

"It is impossible for Ishida's Heilig Pfeil to be weaker than mine" - which makes me think that it's a modified attack of something.

Ah, the Quincy: Letzt Stil was used by Ishida in the fight against Mayuri - where he started breaking down the particles of the nearby buildings. Mayuri only managed to escape because of his "turning into liquid" thing.

Looks like Quincies can go Bankai much more easily now.

And they have Dondochakka now. And they've entered Soul Society.

OKAY KUBO STOP TROLLING DAMN IT!!!!!

Seriously, this character starts talking about stuff about why Uryu's attack can't be weaker than his for some reason and then HE DOESN'T TELL US. WHAT.

DAMN TROLL. o(>∆<)o

GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

...

On a completely separate note, apparently Nel found Dondochakka...? Well I guess that was, um, easy. =P Damn, a million times more easy than Rukia or Orihime's rescue... LOL

A Quincy with a Mohawk, now I've seen everything...

Kirge's face makes me a little sick, though. >.>
I guess his lips just contrast with his skin too much.

Cool fight is cool!
His comments about Uryu are interesting.
I'd love to see just how Uryu compares to some of these Quincy.

Wasn't expecting the Letzt Stil at all!
This reminds me of the good ol' days, when bankai was something rare and amazing. xD


The second to last page was anti-climatic...
I mean, Dondochakka was kind of the main reason they went to Hueco Mundo.
But he's found and rescued off screen...At least he's safe...

And then the very end.......
What is this I don't even?!
My best guess is someone's shoe. >.<

"No shockwave of Reiatsu" - I like that little bit of detail there. It makes it feel like he's thought a bit more about the effects on the surrounding and the other people, whenever someone does something.

However, I DON'T like that he's flashbacking to give us information. It feels like he's arse-pulling whenever he does that. It would make it seem much nicer to do it chronologically, because it gives us good foreshadowing.

So the new Letzt Stil is an evolved form. I wouldn't be surprised to see other, super-powered attacks.

"If Ishida transformed into something that disgusting, I might kill him by mistake." I just found that hilarious.

I do remember Chad (maybe Ishida?) mentioning how Hueco Mundo has more... organised spirit particles, or something like that. It's more dense or something?

Woo, Allon. It's nice to see that the Tres Bestia aren't out of the count already.

Well, that's it, really.

I keep forgetting that the "mask" thing is not his/its face.

Oh yeah, I completely forgot about these two. I'm suspicious of Hidetomo Kajoumaru. There's probably a reason why he knows all of this, and why Kubo didn't just write in a Lieutenant or something.

So we learn that Shinigami were called Balancers, and that "if the balance was disrupted, Soul Society will flow into the Human world and the two worlds will both collapse." Interesting.

I'm sure there must be a reason why the Quincies always denied it.

I'm liking the philosophy of "when both sides fight for a just cause..."

Of course, stabbed through the chest. Immediately saw that coming when I saw the previous page.

"Adjust the strength of our Blut (Blood/Blood Cloth)." Which probably links to the "True Blood" thing I've heard here and then about Ichigo. But at least we know that these guys can be more powerful.

And... That's it.

I thought it was interesting how the topic of justice was brought into this chapter... Though the way the guy says it (and because he was unknown until now) makes him look like a double agent-ish guy...

Not quite sure why Orihime looks so horrified as the guy gets pounded into the ground by Allon/Ayon... I mean, at least he wasn't ripping him apart or anything....?

Overall, this was a pretty good chapter. :)
Except the ending... D:

Considering Kirge's power and mastery of his abilities (dat Ransotengai), I wonder how Uryu would really compare.
When I compare Uryu from the Hueco Mundo invasion, to Kirge Opie, it would be a great fight, but I think Kirge would eventually win.
But Kirge said that Uryu's Heilig Pfeil should be more powerful than his own.
And I see that as meaning that Uryu should be stronger than Kirge.
So I then wonder, if Uryu used the Vandenreich's equipment, how powerful would he be?

Lyrics for a song I wrote for Kageroza-kun.

Revelation Lyrics
(English - Japanese)

In the birth of a single moment

isshun no tanjou de

The "essence of time" is stamped on our foreheads

jikanki wa gaku ni kokuin sareteiru

Etching us into the charade of forever

eien no gensou ni warera o ho ru

Fate

Unmei…..

It was only then, at the second we first met
That the "weight of impermanence" became a glowering figure.

warera no deatta shunkan dake ni
hieizokusei no omo ga nirandeiru zukei ni naru

Because I didn't have this hand to hold onto
I was living idly, I was dying
Idly

kono te o nigirarenai no de
muda ni sundeita, shindeita
muda ni

The "essence of time" is stamped on our foreheads
Etching us into the charade of forever
Fate….

jikanki wa gaku ni kokuin sareteiru
eien no gensou ni warera o ho ru
Unmei…..

When the sand has run dry in the hour glass
Will we tilt it over or let ourselves perish?
If we choose the latter
Pierce me with a final goodbye

sunadokei no jikan ga fusoku shita toki ni
saikidou suru ka, shi o kyoka suru ka?
kousha o sentaku shita baai
wakare de watashi o ugatsu

Let an unwavering awareness (of each other) glaze our departure

otagai no yuruginai ishiki ga shuppatsu o teigishite mimashou

The voice of reality is something we abide by
Our pasts unchained, we anticipated our future
Fate….

genjitsu no koe o shitagau
kako no kusari ga nai de mirai o yosoku
Unmei……

We imploringly ask for tomorrow's arrival,
Now knowing that yesterday will die upon nightfall.

ashita no touchaku ni kougan suru
kinou wa higureji ni shinde shimau

Unveil

keiji shite
