The Bleach Fan Club

[-Lapras-]

And Kubo has gotten ill so there won't be any chapters until he's better.

That has a list of all the characters, their positions and all the background on them. There may be spoilers though.

I just picked up the divisions and stuff by watching and the stuff I didn't isn't really important.

Welcome to the group anyway.

ANnd welcome back Truality.

I just have a quick request, and I'm sort of scared to go elsewhere because I don't want to spoil anything. A couple of friends and I are watching bleach, and we're on episode 50ish or something. I'm having lots of difficulty keeping track of who's in what squad and what everyone's names are. I pretty much can only remember Ichigo, Rukia, Chad, Ken, Aizen, and Ururu. Might anyone be able to create a horrid Microsoft Paint picture matching the captains to the lieutenants?

I think the angry fandom secretly poisoned him. D:

[Pokestick, good times.]

Sam is my new awesome nickname for you. Actually I just misspelled Zam as I have no idea what to call you.

Kubo is taking a week off being "sick" just to make the angry fans wait in frustration.

[-Lapras-]

3 weeks even.

Spoiler:

Kenpachi loses his fight

Spoiler:

[Pokestick, good times.]

Oh really? He must be trolling his ass off.

Spoiler:

Or maybe he's even

Spoiler:

taking his time to make the fight awesome

No. even Kubo wouldn't do THAT.

[I like Pokemon (...)]

Deleted my previous post so I could make a new one - I'm back, and so is the manga on Mangareader.

Spoiler:

"Loyd Lloyd" seriously Kubo?

Well, that's the body count increased by three.

Did he just block Kenpachi's sword with... his arm?

3 pages for Ichigo.

Yamamoto saves the day! Maybe he'll kill Driscoll before he can use Sasakibe's bankai? Possibly.

That was... one of my shortest reviews. Damn.

[Zameric]

What's with the early manga?
I thought that both, Kubo was ill, and SJ was supposed to be on break...
Whatever, I'm glad to be getting more Bleach manga.

Manga 503

Spoiler:

Bahahaha, I love how Kenpachi explained how he killed the three Quinzis.
I like 'Quinzis' better than my 'Quincinazis'. :p
Basically..."The first guy was too loud, so I cut him in half; the second one talked too much, so I sliced her throat; The third tried to copy me, so I showed him who the real Slim Shady was."
Then Kenpachi proceeds to attack der Führer, but Kubo cuts it off just as the epic battle starts. :/

Ichigo's still stuck...
Wait, did I just see Bringer Light?
And some black spiritual pressure, but that's probably from his bankai...

Woah, Sternrittern O is a bad-***, even for a Quinzi. :D
"The more I kill, the stronger I get"
He sure has quite a lot of moxie, huh?
Oh dayum~, The Head Captain just joined the fight!
OH ****, HE HAS SASAKIBE'S BANKAI?!
Kubo, you fateful bastard...
Aaaannnd another cliffhanger.....

[-Lapras-]

Indeed, it was an unexpected chapter. Nice surprise.

Best bit was Kenpachi

Spoiler:

explaining how he killed the 3 people.

Other than that nothing very fun happened imo.

[Truality]

All I want to add is

Spoiler:

I want to see Sasakibe's bankai. I hope it's not some kind of deadly floating tea.

[-Lapras-]

Well we do know it's going to be super powerful and yeah, English. He'll probably be able to summon torrential rain or something.

I'm thinking it's a leak. Since I think Mangastream mentioned 20th August, which is about a week from now.

Well, I personally kind of enjoy seeing Ichigo not winning fights.

If it's something to do with 5 rings...

[Pokestick, good times.]

Holy McShizzle, this chapter was actually pretty good.
Really interesting to see some Genryuusai backstory, as well as finally giving that moustached teadrinker some sort of depth.

Cool that it wasn't five chapters of just fighting too. The geezer never disappoints.

[I like Pokemon (...)]

Spoiler:

Surprisingly enough, I actually quite enjoyed that chapter.
Okay so that's about 5 pages showing off some lightning, and telling us it's a weather-based zanpakutou.

Man Yamamoto can taking a beating.

Hahaha, it's so weird seeing Yamamoto as young as that.

Choujirou looks kind of cool with the white hair + eyes... but his face looks very generic.

I really like the flashback, it very nicely shows the relationship that they share; and the mutual respect that they have for each other. It's just really sweet.
Also on "juujisai" - the "juu" part, I think, comes from the Kanji for the number 10, which looks like a "+", which is kind of like the cross on Yamamoto's head.

Man I love Yamamoto's rage face.

[Livewire]

Spoiler:

HELL YEAH OLD MAN YAMA. The guy always has the best badass displays of power in the manga. I love it.

[Zameric]

Manga 504

Spoiler:

It was a neat surprise to see Yamamoto in his "youth". xD

The name meanings were kind of lost on me, oh well. :/

I like Sasakibe's eyes in the anime more...

Even though it's kind of nice to see Kubo not draw out the death of every villain, I hope he has a few more to replace the few that have just recently died.
Or I hope that he focuses more on the remaining villains.

Not much else to say about this chapter.

Is there anyone who wants to change their position in the squads?
Or any captains that would like to recommend a position change for a member of their squad?

[Pokestick, good times.]

Manga;

Spoiler:

Well, holy flipping hell.
Shizzle's all going down, now.

Really nice tying the different fights together like that, but now Kubo is just skipping all the good fights :/
I mean big bad vs kenpachi? Could we like, uh, see?

Even though we all know this isn't gonna be the big, final showdown, it's still nice. Go go old man.

I'd like to move from Captain of the 12th Squad to Captain of the Pith squad. Or first squad. Or zeroth squad. Any will do.

But about the manga, it was one of the few times where I actually got goosebumps. REALLY pumped me up for the rest of the fights!!

[-Lapras-]

Just to mention a post I made a while back.

Well done lappy, you are now the lead script writer for Bleach.

[-Lapras-]

Cool, from now on adorably baffled Basterbine is all the series is about.

*le me after reading this week's chapter


*le Kubo


Only rage faces can express my feelings about this week's chapter...

Manga 505

Spoiler:

Oh yay, more fanart. [/sarcasm]

The color pages were amazing! :D

Oh ****, now the Head-Captain thristin' for some blood.
The Quinzis but freakin' run if they value their lives... >.>
But from the Soul Reapers' side, Shinji's comments are perfect. xD

Ha ha, the giant puppy sure knows how to make his pack work. :p

Sweet, it looks like Kyoraku is getting serious too! :D

And then we switch to Kenpachi and....

And Kubo's probably sittin' at home with this look on his face.
I can understand Kubo killing off popular characters in a war, but not like this...
First Choujiro, then Kira, then Byakuya, and now Kenpachi?
What the **** Kubo?! D<

And more fanart...

[Pokestick, good times.]

Spoiler:

I can see why you'd be frustrated, but there's no need to rageface all over the place. Ew.

Also, Is kenpachi really dead? I thought he just lost and shizz :V
If he IS dead, then... well, **** me.

[-Lapras-]

He won't be dead, no way.

[I like Pokemon (...)]

Are we not using spoilers now or something

Mmm, I don't think so. I could be wrong I seem to be doing that quote a lot now but I'm sticking with "beaten but not dead".

[Pokestick, good times.]

Whoops, my bad.
*adds spoiler tags*

I'm interested in what her ability is. The scimitar looks pretty neat.
