Bleach Discussion Part 2

[Tokoro Ataru]

Barragan and Halibel aren't dead until there's a body. I still say they come back.

As for the anime...well, I don't mind Oomaeda, but I think the anime overused him a bit.

[GEPPETTOSMONSTER]

Now on to the three halibel fraccion and soon allon. Hopefully by the time allon shows up we'll get the animation team that did the kisagi fight.

[Benjaman]

And the anime is HORRIBLE lately.

So true!! i was hoping that this fights in particular were going to be mind blowing but they have been just lame... sooo boring. With the exception of the battle of Hisagi Shuuhei. That one has been the only one that caught my attention.

[Yonkou#3]

Well at least this thing with stark is a bit... different. I was getting a little sick of the captain and espada's playing "I'll show you mine if you show me yours" with their Releases. But yeah If barragan's dead from one single attack....that attack better be stronger than this. [youtube]GW5_1WEb8w0[/youtube]

Bleach chapter is out
http://www.onemanga.com/Bleach/361/01/
Get it while its hot

[Ivotas]

So, any particular reason why the last image required a spread? Other then wasting space of course.

[Mugiwara Kaizoku]

i'd say running out of ideas would be a reason and stalling for time is also one...
but i'm warning you, don't take a too deep look into that blanc or it might consume you!!!

[The Daz]

Dammiiiit, I sooo expected Stark and Lillinette to fuse since she seemed so pathetically weak/useless, but I never got around to posting it...Ah well, in my heart I shall know I called Kubo (Big whoop, I know).
but still, If arrancar split their power between themselves and their swords, and Stark/Lillinette instead had it split between themselves...why do they have swords?

[barkadat3p]

double guns??? not bad I guess....so much for the dragon theory...

Yeah, I wasn't putting much stock in that. I just thought it'd be kinda funny (and fitting; Dragons are loners for Millennium at a time).

Eh, this release is all right. Fitting, at least. I'm betting you anything that in the original idea for Bleach (Snipe), Stark was one of the Shinigami (I always wonder what it would have been like. Rukia was supposed to have a Scythe and the rest of the Shinigami had guns. Sounds pretty cool).

By the way, can't remember, but did Barragan have his name page yet? If he did, then he's toast. Otherwise, he's not done quite yet.

[Tokoro Ataru]

Barragan didn't have a name page.

To tell the truth, one thing I liked about this chapter is that Stark just wants to get the Bankais out and handle Shunsui (and most likely Ukitake) rather easily. The whole Lilynette being part of him is still sort of weird.

[Crossword]

Well, I think the fusion aspect is kind of dumb and seems to merely be a way to kill off Lilynette without making the doer of the deed look like a heartless asshole, but I do admit that Stark's release does look pretty cool, and I love how he's a gunslinger instead of a sword/melee weapon user.

Shouldn't Barragan be able to age that missile into dust?

theoretically speaking yes he could probably do that...
then again, the missile can just explode before reaching Barragan's space of doom...

[DesertSpada]

Oh come one, surely Barragan isn't....and Halle Berry.....Well, they'll come back. Halle barely did anything and Barragan just followed Omaeda around......and you know, I just don't like Omaeda. But even then, his Captain shouldn't throw so many insults at him.

Anyway, onto Stark. Yeah, cool looking release. Lilynette seemed like an attachment to it though.

"This little girl is apart of me, and now we shall be complete."
Eh....kind of weird. She didn't do anything but play 'comedic' relief....seems like her hollow mask is now his. Maybe that'll act as some sort of LOCK ON feature for his guns?

[Puma]

Im a bit confused....didn't the last Stark scene end with him being surprised at some kinda flame-looking that Kyouraku did or did I miss something?

Just to put a scene like that and then the next time go on like nothing happened :<

[rusashi]

Couldn't it just be possible Lilinet is his zanpakuto's spirit.

and is there somewhere to read this "Snipe"?

[Satsuki]

There are three things I like about this chapter. Two specifically for Soi Fon's bankai.

1. I like the little added touch of the shoulder armor that covers half of her face but has an eye slit for her to aim her cannon with.
2. I like how Kubo kept within Newton's Law. "Every action has an opposite and equal reaction." The whole reason for Soi Fon tying herself to a building was to catch her when she went flying back from the recoil of her giant cannon. For a series that usually throws such logic to the wind, it was nice to see it.

And thirdly, I like Stark's release. It's no dragon, but hey, a wolf is a close second! While a little odd, I like the idea of Stark and Lilynette being originally one Hollow. AND he has guns, with bullet rounds coming out of his body. Finally, some guns show up in this sword-fest.

So overall, I liked this chapter.

when you mean page 17, that wasn't stark looking suprised, that was *insert random captain name*(=rukias captain) who looked buffed at starks release.

P.S.: and i still don't get why you people think this release looks cool.

["Fire Fist" Ace]

P.S.: and i still don't get why you people think this release looks cool.

Eh, it's all right. It fits his theme of Lonliness with "The Lone Gunslinger" and "The Lone Wolf". I got a feeling, though, that Ukitake's Shikai/Bankai will play a big role in beating him. I've never played the Video Games for Bleach, but can Ukitake's Shikai create wave shields that protect him from attack? I'm just going by the release command (Wave be my shield, lightning be my blade) here though...

[Mugiwara Kaizoku]

he reminds me too much of .... not howard stern... that other one, that porn-producing-guy who woody harrelson (lol, allen) played back a decade or something ago.
or one of those guys jumping over 12 schoolbuses to shagg one chick from the audience later on. it's just too typically 'american' imo -no offense.

EDIT: Larry Flynt, that's it. Stark reminds me of Larry Flynt.
