This is so clean. Ichigo's iconic point the sword at the enemy before going Bankai habit/battle cry. 🔥 I used to scream whenever this happened. Knowing exactly what was going down next. I'd be shouting Bankai to the enemy also, 😅👏🏽

Really cool & interesting seeing my top 3 rn all draw the same character. Both Horikoshi & Gege did justice imo. Different vibes, different intent. I'm also a big sucker for the mad scientist trope & Mayuri Kurotsuchi is one of my favourites among them. 🔥👌🏽

Crazy how Kubo's recent comments on Ichigo's true Bankai & scabbard recontextualises Sayafushi's incompleteness as foreshadowing for Zangetsu. An incomplete sword.

"What is Ichigo's purpose initially? Why does he fight? What drives him? It's never stated.. "

..Bruh I'm on Ch47 & this is like the 5th time it's being laid out. Further developing & in escelating situations each time. Just say you ain't read. It's cool.

Nice detail. Yamamoto speaks remorsefully when facing Wonderweiss. We often forget that the SR purify, not k*ll. I think his wording/face here is due to the fact that he unfortunately has to kill it; not having enough potency left in his discarded Zanpakuto..

Crazy how Aizen looked at & spoke directly to Ukitake/Mimihagi during his speech. Foreshadow for the final arc within SS is really cool to see. An Aizen centered LN would be a dream come true. Along with a Kisuke LN, those are my top 2 hopes for the future..

Holy sh*t she really was 6'1. I was so young I never really dwelled on it. 😅

So Kubo is saying all Visored & Ichigo have the potential to achieve Resurreccion. Those are some designs that I NEED to see.. Maybe we can through some form of future content if all goes well. Jaws of Hell? Light Novel? Video Game designs by Kubo? Etc.

Shonen characters returning to normality between arcs be like...

Love seeing new Digital Art from Kubo. Shows us he's still honing his craft & practicing within this medium; also still enjoying himself with Bleach.. Potentially also prepping for if a successful return opens new doors in the life of the franchise. 🙏🏽🤞🏼

Loved the subtle 'eye of providence' symbolism with Kisuke.

In theology, Providence refers to divine intervention in the Universe. This can be general through the upholding of existence & natural order (Kisuke's aid to all) or special eg Miracles (Ichigo's Birth).

I think a very sensible assumption now & a very cool concept to introduce later is if Kubo, during Jaws Of Hell, says that the very first Original Gotei member to reach near death is what lead to the creation of the 12 year ritual death process by Ichibe..

'To be born with a silver spoon in one's mouth is to be born into a wealthy & privileged family.'

This is likely wild conjecture on my part but for someone like me who loves driving hidden/further meaning from everything I can...

'You're slow.. Even while falling.'

Trash talking in this series always been elite. 😅 Kubo must've been such a menace on the school yard..

There seem to be seperate cases of superficial damage. Exactly what damage is superficial/permanent being individual. We can't universally assume permanent damage. A few blades breaking doesn't hinder Senbonzakura. I assume blades would have to be erased etc for that https://t.co/104sBuvJza

Mental & physical support. ❤️

A tech Ganji can learn passed down by the Shiba has the ability to undo the union between reishi. We can extrapolate & amp these properties to deduce the effect of the Final Getsuga, along with why Ichigo later exhibits a growing ability to cut the near impossible..

Foreshadowing is insane. I wondered if there was significance to Vol8 having Zangetsu upside-down. It's later revealed Zangetsu was a manifestation of Yhwach & their shadow ability was used to hide the Wandenreich; also depicted upside-down, within the shadows of SS.

New Kubo art is so good, I hope we can get more original projects in the future where he's able to implement his current style & colouring. 👌🏽

Masterfully written miscommunication. 👏🏽 Whole time White, fully aware of Ichigo's soul, does not refer to himself as Zangetsu. Instead I believe he's correctly referring to the collective as Zangetsu while Ichigo & we mistakenly focused on the manipulative Old Man..
