Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
I just want Aizen to get out of the chair so he can fight Yhwach in the "Ultimate Battle of Bullshit!"

"I just broke your sword in the future Aizen"
"No, you broke an illusion. I'm over here."
"Then I just killed you!"
"No that was an illusion too"

Repeat ad nauseam.

Bleach was better when it had dumb shit like "Since when do the Espada only go from 1-10" and Aizen trolling Hitsugaya into stabbing Momo and Gin's Bankai being 13 kilometers long because at least that was entertainingly dumb

This confuses me, what did Aizen show her to get her up there? She was on the ground before that. Can he just actively control what everyone is seeing?

The real question is why did Ichigo sit there like a dumbass while everyone wailed on her and didn't say anything until the last minute.

Then Shuu-chan appears and he retcons everything: it was him who trained Yhwach and Aizen.

I just figured out how Bleach ends.

The universe kills itself because it can't take it anymore.
 
Let's remember the good times, a shout out to my favourite character...

Mayuri Kurotsuchi is a pretty reprehensible dick whose early showings include him physically abusing his borderline slave lieutenant and detailing his grim experiments on quincys. Like maybe he was originally supposed to be part of the villain trifecta with Aizen and Gin but then they thought "naw, this guy's too obviously evil so let's use Tousen, what a swerve!"
Thus leaving him to take an automatic face turn by default since he's still part of the Soul Society mob after the Aizen reveal despite doing nothing to redeem himself, brilliantly they then play this lunatic up like twisted comic relief where he's this horrible wacky guy that we just laugh off to hide the fact that he's committed and probably still committing some horrible acts in the name of science.

No repercussions for my man Mayuri, he gets to alternate between increasingly absurd outfits and bullshits his way through fights that are just a tier below Aizen in the sheer nonsense department (though I imagine Super Quincy dude might be leading this tier list at this point)

Kubo announced Bleach was ending even before kishimoto talked about Naruto ending. The current arc which started brilliantly has become terrible as it went along. I was telling my friend that the current arc makes the Xcution arc look like Rescue Rukia Arc and I thought the Xcution arc was total crap.

I mean is Ichigo like the most shitted protagonist. He never got to shine this arc. The so called War potentials were all shit. As a bleach fan my disappointment to the character development for Ichigo has no end.
 
If memory serves, I think it was during the zombie girl nonsense that my mind just started turning off regarding new Bleach chapters. Helps that they last for less than a minute.

The worse part is most recent fights go like this:

Bad Guy: Hi
Good Guy powers up. Does nothing.
Bad Guy powers up, whups good guy.
Option A: Good guy is sad. Reveals all-new power-up!
Option B: Other random character appears! Reveals all-new power-up!
Bad Guy: WHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAA? *dead*

Like 10 chapters at a time, over and over again.

The most annoying thing IMO is this is happening to characters people have been waiting for years to see their full powers, only for them to be revealed and shut down in the span of two chapters.
 
Well, for me, it ended around Aizen's defeat.

I'm pretty much in it for the BS abilities and finally seeing people's shikai and bankai. Kenpachi' sis about what you expect.

Oh wow, I just remembered that I used to care about Bleach. Pre-Soul Society and Soul Society feel like an eternity ago...

Just end this trash already.

The pinnacle of the series to me was when Aizen was revealed to be the badguy.

The skies opened then he left and took the manga with him.

That's how I measure how much Bleach has left, who hasn't used Bankai or their Quincy ability yet. By my count people with a Bankai that haven't used them yet or probably have one barring outright cancellation

Hisagi
Kira
Yoruichi
Yumichika
Ukitake
Aizen
Shinji? Or did he use his
Love
Rangiku
Isshin
Hiyori?

Can't remember shit about zero squad bankai
 
It really would have happened by now, they have 4 YEARS of materiel to animate since February and yet nothing. The first anime got canned due to low dvd sales and got replace time slot wise by the fucking Naruto SD spin off.

Jump better trying to make an anime with on of there new series to try and make a new hit rather than give Bleach more time.

I think they'll do a "Final Cut" thing and do it when it's truly over. Bleach's art is beautiful, but takes up so much space that the pacing is much slower than other series. Even if they started now, I think the anime would catch the manga pretty quickly and we'd be looking at filler again.

Once this manga ends, they'll animate it, call it "Bleach: The Final War" or something, and only do canon stuff.
