^I read the RAW last night. Oh, and I think you spelled Orihime wrong... But the scan is out so get it everyone~
[spoiler] Ichi gets his mask~ It looks pretty cool. Apparently Hiyori took the longest time getting her mask and Ichigo almost beat that record [/spoiler]

Eh?? Mask??
I thought they were talking about who was the longest to fight Ichigo....

WHA!! NOW WE'RE GONNA KNOW
[SPOILER]WHAT AIZEN IS REALLY UP TOOOOOOOOOOOOOO........................ eh, not really interesting. He said so himself, he's gonna rule da world.[/spoiler]

Oh wow! I just got caught-up on the manga...reading for a few hours today..downloading and downloading..hehehe (probably went over my bandwidth...ah well.) But the last chapter was insane...phew....I'm relieved though. Can't wait to see where this will go now...

^Why don't you just read it online instead??

That chapter was an interesting one, and the next one should be too. I'm thinking that the artist is going to show something very different and interesting for what Aizen really wants, because a whole chapter just explaining that Aizen wants to take over the world would just be very stupid and dull...But, I look forward to it as I do all chapters.

Ichi's Hollow mask. *TskTsk* <-- JK

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I didn't get the oukagi and sousei whatsoeva at all...........;;
(brain dead)

[spoiler]HINAMORI IS AWAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (finally) but it seems a bit... too... sudden shock in all of this mess??[/spoiler]

Chapter 223 (The Scarlet Creation) is basically about [spoiler] Aizen's true purpose is to obtain the "Royal Key" and assassinate the King and his family. The royal bloodline lives in a separate existence/space within Soul Society which is kept secure. The only way in is to use the "Royal Key." It is generally known that the King is a person of absolute virtue. The King leaves general affairs regarding Soul Society to the Central 46 because he has no desire to dabble in politics.[/spoiler] Credits to djudge for a quick summery.

^I think so.

Wats sousei then??

Bringing the thread back from the dead...

Meh, chapter 225 wasn't all that interesting... Ichigo seems to last only four seconds with his mask before it breaks...

Worst thing is, his reaction is stupid. I mean, 1,000,000 souls are gonna be destroyed and Karakura Town is gonna go to bits and Ichigo's like, "Yeah, I don't really care~"
Kubo-sensei is not being careful with his story plot now...
Hope the training season ends soon.

Chapter 226 of bleach out. We FINALLY get to see Uryuu... FINALLY....

He completes his training to get his Quincy powers back.

The last chapter I read was 215 or 216...
I wonder if I should catch up to the newest chapter now.
So many chapters, so little time to read...

This is basically a dead thread, or was.... Chapter 231 is out, LQ by Bleach7

Ichi VS Grimmjow again, this time with Ichi's Hollow Mask.

That's why I revived it.

I have problems getting back into the story, but I will give it a try.
Already reading 218, 13 chapters left.

XD Well, you should, so hurry up

Finished. Many chapters, but not too much content...

Yeah, is kinda slow right now, But I can't wait so see Urahara fight^^

Me too.
And I hope Renji doesn't stay and rest like he is supposed to -
I want to see more of him too.

Yay. But Ichigo's in big trouble if Grimmjow suddenly finds out he only can maintain his hollow form for only 11 sec. URAHARA IS GONNA FIGHT! WHOOT! >_<

bleach manga roks. i love it. it is one of my favorite mangas ichigo rules!!!!

Just found a little fact to lighten up our day.

"Tite Kubo could not beat Rangiku in the "Selected Soul" Bleach game. His younger brother did it for him."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matsumoto_Rangiku Scroll down to the "Trivia" part.

I just saw the Chinese scanlation. man, how I hate Inoue so much >.<

^True dat, Bleach is turning shojo. (ha, Orihime wanted to be a fireman or an astronaut)

Just read the recent chapter (238)....good chapter, [spoiler] got to see Bykuya, Ukitake, Kenpachi, and the General again. Now the big question is...what happens next? Orihime...gone. Ichigo is told to do nothing....(sigh).... [/spoiler] need chap 239 now! lol....

I loved the omake chapter that came out with 238. Especially with Rangiku and Inoue making sand castles with their boobs.
And yes, Inoue both pisses me off, and makes me happy at the same time.

... I think Ichigo is a little too tall for being fifteen years old. But whatever. I like that his name means "strawberry".

According to me, Bleach is... decent. I haven't really fallen for it yet.

I hope the "lets rescue the big boob stupid Inoue" stuff get over in the next chapter....i really don't even want to read 240 yet it hasn't been release yet anyway...althought the raw looks kinda interesting

Rainy - were in the hell do you got that sig?? that man looks like soubi...but WAY better XD

Just read chapter 241..looks like its finally heating up

Aw, I love Inoue. She's so cute and ditzy, yet wants to help and hates being a burden. I love her to death.

I like Inoue, but hate her at the same time.... It's weird.....

Heuco Mundo looks....normal. <---Spoilerish?

We're 2 now...


not at all, I'm about to read it..

Yeah, thats 1 of my favorite manga/anime.
I like Rukia, Renji, Ichigo, and Kisuke.
Don't forget Uryu Ishida, he's cool too.
Mostly Kisuke.

^Ishida is weird XD having a spare cape XD


this few chapters, I haven't read them all, just skipped trough the pages and read some lines, since it involves that "person" XD

I'm against this whole arc myself. Not because they have to go rescue Inoue, but the fact that they went to Hueco Mundo so soon without any real type of a gameplan. That's a little on the insane side and all I know is one of the good guys had better die.

OT: Zarpy, my siggie babe is Rai from this new BL game coming out next month called Lamento. I'm so in love with him at the moment!!

I also found the spare cape odd, but that's Ishida for ya.

I really should start reading bleach again - but I will need at least a whole saturday afternoon to read all the chapters I left out.

I it still worth reading?

I want more time to read manga...

^Well, I have skip a few pages without even reading them...shame on me, but I just don't like this new twist in the manga at all...

OMG!! The new arrancars are so cute! X3
This had been a turn in the manga plot now. Nell is like Yachiru~ LOL, super M.

ah! I need to catch on to this one, I don't even know the last chapter I read

What's with Bleach!! IT'S REALLY THE DAMSEL IN DISTRESS NOW! It's the exact same as the SS arc! Only this time the leader isn't some old bald dude and instead a very hot handsome looking ha-ha-i'm-taking-over-the-world-leader.

Darn all of you! not really Why didn't anyone told me that she was back??? I would have keep up to date with the scans, now I have to read all 4 I missed XD

I'v tried it was a little boring at first but it got more interesting later on u can read it at msn groups no downlaods

Bleach is great!! xD I am currently reading the lasts chapters that were out.... I tried to watch the anime but ¬¬ well, I prefer the manga!! .

@pawnedbyme: I also read the chapters there and sometimes in other site where they come a little faster xD.

I've kind of been disappointed with the fight scenes in all the chapters since Ichigo learned bankai. They all seem a bit too Dragon Ball Z-ish with suddenly learning to fly with no explanation and huge explosions all over the place.

Bleach is alright, but i havent read it in a long ass time. When I stopped reading bleach they had just saved Rukia from being executed & were at school. I need to catch up big time.

Well huge explosions are cool, but I agree I didn't like that they all just suddenly learned how to fly...or maybe they knew how all along, and just decided now was a good time to start.

o_o this thread has been ignored.

ZOMG...so I'll post then because Bleach has become insane.

Ichigo is full hollow now, just killed Uliquiorra, Ishida was stabbed by Ichigo. It's all gone crazy!

Can't wait for this week's!!

I hope that action will switch to fake KT soon. To be honest, I’m sick of seeing Orihime and Ichigo, especially after the whole “I was Hollow that nearly killed my friend. But I’m back to normal now and I don’t remember what I was doing” thing. And Uli’s finally dead. I will miss him.
