Old bleach spoilers

It actually makes sense how strong Ichigo is looking at his growth during his other training periods. This training period was almost three times more than the next longest training period.(Vizard training, about one month)(FGT training, 2000 hrs.or 2.7 months)
Aizen had better get stabbed and stay stabbed the next chapter, not turn into Don Kanonji.

I seriously doubt that Ichigo is going to kill Aizen right away. It just isn't Ichigo's style. He will kick ass at first, then Aizen will rally and pound Ichigo into the ground. Ichigo will be on the verge of defeat when he realizes once again that he needs to be strong to protect something he loves dearly. Father, sisters, Orihime, Chad, his new hair stylist or the vending machine down on the corner. Whatever motivates him, Ichigo will win or at least deal Aizen a serious blow. I personally hope Aizen creates his key, just because I'm curious about the Royals. That said. -- I do have a question that is not related to the fight... Before Aizen and his hollow brigade started the battle, the Soul Society seemed to know a whole lot about the Espadas and the inevitable war. They knew when and where it would happen and were able to protect the town up until now. Did I miss something, where did they get their information. Do they have a big hollow satellite floating around sending Google signals to the Soul Society's computer lab. I am serious, I really am wondering.

IDIOTS who don't understand that the kanji BAN (as in BAN-Kai) is symbolized by what we know as the swastika, its not like it was not widely used and adorned many things BEFORE the NAZI party used it

Ban = Full

Ban is an auspicious symbol

All the guys who are fighting over something so irrelevant, lay back down, chill out, relax, we are talking about Kubo, writing chapters while being on crack. It's nothing new. And for the ones who are getting trolled, WELCOME TO BLEACH, bleach is actually a synonym for troll. Everbody has been trolled 417 times total, if you started reading from chapter 1 ;)

^^^ Your words are the most truest thing i've ever heard in this forum haha. Tbh i've never seen a troll this bad since Adam blamed Eve for eating the apple.

But Bleach seem's to be getting better, I wouldn't say on par with naruto as of yet, it's comming close as long as Tite doesn't troll it badly it'll be alright, let's find out shall we =p.

What I find interesting is that the symbol has been found all over various ancient Asian architecture, at also over Southern American Ancient architecture too... with apparently no possible way of the two having communicated, or copied from each other.

And agreed with Afro. YES they do age. But they age at random it seems.

Byakuya started at the same age as Hiyori or younger, now he looks about 26 i'd say. She hasn't changed.

Lisa hasnt changed, still looks mid 20s

Nanao and Hisagi on the otherhand have gone from looking about 5 each to looking early to mid twenties.

Just a few examples. It doesn't add up.

I think it works if you view it in the light that Afrojack has cast. Each soul has its own personal speed of progression to maturity and the visible portion of the soul is an indication of the state of that maturity. You could come up with tons of examples to support this and probably some that contradict it (assuming it's absolute, which is unlikely), but it seems to apply to the examples in my head more often than not.

Stories don't have to be [in] the Bible to have a deeper meaning, chief. The vast majority of stories have underlying messages, even the lowest common denominator of entertainment (sitcoms) have them.

There's a damn good reason why 3rd Rock from the Sun was so well-received around the world and it wasn't because it's a comedy show. It's because the underlying messages speak to all of us.

You personally taking it at face value does not substantiate the claim of the material lacking deeper meaning. The only thing substantiated there is you failing to look past the given.

Im hoping that KT doesn't decide to go back to HM this week. I wanna finally finish this fight. He can show us the others after this one.

that's why i said disintegrate him with the wind scar...i mean FGT so that naraku, i mean aizen can't use the shikon no tama, i mean hougyoku, i mean orb of fagotry to revive... lol and then we find out the reason aizen can't die is because he left his heart in hueco mundo :-P

but seriously this chapter was pretty good. i just hope i don't get let down with a bs next chapter where nothing happens. i'm praying at work as we speak that that doesn't happen

You and Arty are on to something. That's sounds about right. Theother thing that I noticed (I just reread the last 13 chaps) but Aizen's evolution is not as perfect as he thinks. He's essentially stuck in Scarmask (after Gin killed him that is) mode but just more conscious of it than Ichigo was. He has another phase to go through.
