I should've known.. Very few people can look that imposing while standing next to Kenpachi..

This is actually crazy in retrospect. The words in black don't sound like the Old Man at all, they instead sound like White. The words reaching ichigo first are telling of his true power. But again Ichigo misunderstands, focusing on what he perceives on the surface..

Curious to see if Kubo will retcon Shrieker being sent to Hell as a newly introduced character's ritual during the No Breathes From Hell arc. I think that would be a really cool connection to make/use. 👌🏽🔥

I believe this moment to be a direct parallel. Yoruichi could've stopped Ichigo before having to reveal herself. She instead was reinvigorated by his words & chose to respect his wishes to save his friends, against all odds. As she had also once done in the past.. 👌🏽

Kubo & his editor were both mad men... Because how you decide to debut a new power up/transformation in a shonen series & this is the one you go for.. Who cleared this.. 💀 😂

This foreshadowing wasn't even subtle at all. The Manga really made you suspect something about Kisuke from the start & throughout Soul Society Arc. Making Aizen's comments about his true intentions later on feel that much more sinister..

From memory I think Yoruichi said this place was made by Kisuke when they were young. If not I'll correct myself as I reread. But Tessai was also there as they grew up & his reaction here feels like he too was involved. Cool to note given his prior job title.

I really liked her design, personality & the little snippets of her relationship with Yoruichi that we got. Hoping to get more during potential future projects. Conversations with Ishin, Kazui, a more informed Ichigo etc.

This was a cool Orihime moment. Maintained a barrier between them & the cleaner, pushing them out safely. Then releases the barrier to reform on the ground & catch them. She only has 1 & thus did this consciously.. She may doubt her worth but we can clearly see it.

Really cool how pieces were laid out for retrospect.
We knew Gin would be there before he arrived as Kira was there.
Hisagi's presence likely hinted this wasn't a Squad3 zone.
Also Kaname Gin link teased.
These are the things Kubo meant when he spoke of reread value.

Literally this but throughout SS Arc. From the start we knew something was very different about Ichigo. One of many reasons SS is one of my favourite arcs period is that everything was explained & added up, as much as it didn't feel like it should've at first glance.

This art is so clean. No real lines indicating the movement of the sword but by the positioning of the enemy, their arms & the broken axe shards, I can clearly trace & imagine the action depicted. 👌🏽

Really cool seeing Ichigo trying to pace himself. Planning is an underrated extension of his battle sense. Others may go all out for the best odds but he tries to conserve what he can. Playing the long game. An extention of his mentality that he 'has' to win. Period.

My goat finally here. 🙏🏽 REALLY hoping Kubo can expand on Rangiku's backstory & SK connection a bit more during the anime, if he wants. Probably my only hope of getting some more Gin content rn. That lore is still quite incomplete for anime onlys..

This brings back memories. When the Bleach manga was ongoing, I was convinced Kubo's original plan was to have all the Visored step up during the 2nd wave of the Quincy Invasion. Allowing Kisuke more time to develop the hollow pills etc. Could've been so raw.

A nice subtle detail is that White has 2 sets of teeth, like standard. Implying hollow elements coating a Shinigami frame.
Where as, once stabalised in Ichigo, Full Hollow form is shown with a single set of teeth. Signifying a 'Full' fusion; as intended. 👌🏽

In my opinion the immense popularity of certain supporting characters became both one of Bleach's biggest assets and one of Bleach's biggest detriments..
