So, this is pretty much Kubo trying to explain the inconsistent power levels?
They would've have killed Ichigo if they couldn't use him against Aizen? No. The only instance would be if he went wild with his powers which would make him an enemy deserving of retaliation. A monitoring device is a minor nuance. And they can't control him? Do you honestly think that two captains or maybe one couldn't take him down? Even if Kugo writes it in, it is a dumb narrative direction. Ichigo would go back to being a student and Bleach would end...which could have happened already.
In regard to the monitoring, Ichigo is given all this access and mechanisms for his ability. So now he would be shocked they have some insurance? How is that a revelation? I would just go to Ukitake (since Ichigo is privileged to communicate with anyone he sees fit) and address the issue. Have they controlled him yet to warrant animosity? Would Ichigo ever revolt? Would they really kill him if he quit cause you know, his father's situation? If anybody should be hunted down it is Urahara and they aren't hunting him 24/7 even though they could.
This is a minor quip that could be addressed with a simple conversation with SS. They will not kill him and that is just silly. I don't buy any of it. And you are also supporting the words of Ginjou who is currently the enemy against a known compatriot in Ukitake... There is always 2-3 more sides of these stories in Bleach. And Ukitake will not be painted a devil.
I retain my words of this being very stupid. The narrative choice is fine yet Kugo chooses these choices paired with terrible character reactions using pea brain thought processes. It's tiring when other manga actually delve into thought processes of human beings instead of trope machine MC's.
Truly a malice attack.

They needed Ichigo because he was the only one who was not under KS. They have not kill him because they needed him. Yamamoto already tried to impose his will on Ichigo by preventing him from going to HM. He lost his powers after the defeated Aizen so they had no problem with him. Urahara has cooperated with SS on many issues. That´s why they have not kill him and his gang. SS has never had the high moral ground. They have Mayuri as a captain. Mayuri has done experiments on humans one of them was Ishida´s father. He also blew up some of his underlings in SS arc to kill Orihime. So SS has no qualm to kill anyone who they see as a threat. Ishida´s thought process will be great according to the spoiler.
Ginjou is confirmed to be a sub shinigami.

note: this means soul society willingly let ichigo's friends and family fall under tsukishima's book of the end.
This plotline is reusable forever!

Does this bring us any closer to Ichigos family and why his Father was banished or left SS?
That is a storyline I would cleared up as well :/

It explains Ichigo's inconsistency in the last arc; particularly what Ulquiorra said about the incredible contrast between his peaks and lows... But it's kind of weird that Ichigo wouldn't be able to notice that.
I need to start reading this. Has it been well received thus far?
Even if the premise isn't as interesting as Double Arts' was, I want the author to do well; I like his style.
That was Aizen pretending to be SS, actually

Are you referring to Kenpachi???

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
It's not like anybody questioned it at all, however.
I think there's just three of us reading it so far. It's literally just started so it's hard to say where it will go or what it will do but it's rather typical shounen romcom thus far. It seems to want to take the idea of childhood promises but not sure what it will do with it. There's also the whole lock and key thing that will either just be a metaphor kind of plot device or something more tangible. Time will tell on that.
...so, basically, a lot of "We'll see?"

Someone else read Hitsugime no Chaika.
I need companions on my quest to follow this generic fantasy action romharemcom.
It's about wizards or something?
These panels seem to imply incest, too.
but it's just a several page joke that she thinks he's a total lazy piece of shit that should get a fucken job

But the incest is just a joke (a very strange joke for your first chapter, I might add) and the magic loli romance is 90% of it. Everyone looks a bit like Magical Index too.
I'm saying that I'd have preferred it to be incestuous instead of featuring a loli magical girlfriend.
I don't quite see the similarities to Index's designs, though. They look more like... I dunno, just generic designs with nitro plus eyes. I thought it looked more akin to something like Mirai Nikki.

I get the brutality of SS actions. But that doesn't mean they devolve into having no sense. They aren't going to kill threats until they are threats. And SS is structured and powerful enough to down Ichigo in case he ever becomes one. But that means he has to do it to himself. That is a key point here. Theory is one thing but reality is another.
I don't buy it. Remember, Ginjou is the one playing the speaker here and Bleach always has multiple tales to tell from all sides. It's one of its narrative themes. And if SS admits to this idea wholly, then that is a Kudo derp. And the monitoring thing is so not a big deal. That is the real tragedy here. It's just another example of ridiculous character reactions based on flimsy pretenses.
We wrote a good amount about it here. I was personally very positive about the first few chapters.
I'll check it out.
How can you ignore an entire genre?
The sister is more interesting currently anyway. Which isn't saying much, actually.
Depending on how the magic stuff gets fleshed out, it could be interesting in that regard. I'm not feeling the loli yet but since it's one chapter and all that happened was "OH NOS MY COFFIN" and her shooting something, it feels a bit premature to decide on that.

Plus most of the time they pull the <insert whoever here> wasn't blood related all along!

Uh....no. They weren't scared when Ichigo about Ichigo becoming in his Dangai form again. That form could literally solo the entire Bleachverse. If they aren't scared of that, they won't EVER view him as a threat. He's an ally through and through. This is the same organization who's top general ORDERED his subordinates to restore his powers.
I don't know what you are talking about TBH. Are you sure you are reading the post correctly?
other than all those people who did.
The Saint Comes at Midnight vol 2
Started from volume 2 because I didn't feel like finding where I put the first one in the pile of stuff, which means I'll have to read volume 1 later.
It's a fanservice-y (although lightly, I'd say) horror story that has some pretty silly moments along with some pretty gruesome parts.
Basically a guy, Rei Iori, is an assassin... of people already dead. He kills the evil spirits that possess people and make them commit all sorts of crimes, while trying to track down a powerful spirit that made his girlfriend commit suicide.
The fanservice mostly comes from the police woman that gets entangled with him 'cause the spirit Rei is hunting seems to have targeted her. She, Aya Mikoyaki, fell in love with Rei in the first volume after he helped her and she spent some time around him. Most of the chapters in volume 2 start with Aya doing some pervy stuff to Rei, but it always turns out to be one of her fantasy, as Rei keeps refusing to sleep with her, much to her dismay.
The end of the volume was nice, with the group hunting the spirit thinking they have finally killed it, only to show in the last 2 pages that it didn't really die, as it seemed to have possessed a baby.

Fuck I'm disappointed. I thought this will come as part of the entire Ctrl+T artbook and not separate. All what I got was a 19 pages manga when I was supposed to be reading a glorious 180 pages artbook.
Some dude is offering the book on ebay. Maybe I should test my luck and see if it's not a scam.

Stood around saying, "man, that's kind of crappy don't you think? ....lunch, anyone?"
I don't consider characters who just said, "that sucks" to be really questioning anything. They just kind of grumbled but did nothing really.
A Girl by the Sea 1-3
Uhh that was different. More rooted to reality than other Asano works and this time it's high school kids so no more depressed college dropout kids feeling that the world is ending tomorrow. There is too much sex, but unlike other shitty manga this one seems to be part of the plot.
