He looks like freaking Power Ranger -.-

soon he will have gun that shoots sparkles -.-

Lol, I thought the same. Heck, I even laughed hard when I saw the suit.



Good chapter overall. I gotta admit that when Yuzu told Ichigo that I was expecting Isshin and Urahara be there or Rukia returned but not Tsukimiya. Now, is he really a cousin or he modified Yuzu memories?

I thought it was a good chapter. Ichgo, to me, had a Super Sentai or sth feel to it (minus a full mask). Looking forward to the convo with 'Shuu-chan'. Tsukishima has a really dangerous power - I'm really enjoying it.

Me too. I miss that mask.

Did Kubo know that Ichigo's English VA was a former Power Ranger? Almost makes me wonder if Kubo designed Ichigo's new look that way on purpose. XD

I think he designed the suit that way on purpose, but not because of the fact Johnny Yong Bosch plays as Ichigo in the Bleach dub.  Tite Kubo would have to be super confident that things will keep going according to plan (not to mention that he would have to know that Bosch played as a character in an American adaptation of the Super Sentai series).  Rather I think that fullbring outfit was an inspiration of Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac.  Which would make sense because from what I understand, Tite Kubo is a fan of that series.  I mean look at this image below, and try to tell me how Ichigo's fullbring design isn't in any way influenced from that.

The name of Ichigo's fullbring is TRON! lol.....



SLOOOOL, I agree with you!



At first, when I saw his new shitty suit, I thought ''What the hell, will he sparkle like Edward Cullen?'' xD



His sword suck, I don't like it!

I can't breathe, LOOOOOOL! I totally agree with you! This chapter, general the whole story is getting worse and worse -.-'

It would be great (in funny way) to see ichigo action in power ranger suit. i lol'd when i saw that. i thought did kubo changed genre? he need some flashy guns.



though i believe he will change it when ichigo get his shinigami powers back.



I like the design. It reminds me less of power ranger and more of hollow hierros.



AS for the power up itself...

The very fact that it was NOT revealed in the middle of the battle indicates that its NOT final version or that it is more of a negative thing ginjou wants than Ichigo's power up.

oh, I get it now! so Kube is just really big fan of power rangers XD

...i really don't get what was wrong with old samurai style...ok... maybe i just need to get accustomed with his new look...

I just can't get Rukia's "Ichigo would never..." line from ~10 chapters back out of my head. It just keeps bothering me. Maybe the faction Ichigo joined up with really is an enemy faction.



JUst that?



how about:

- Ginjou holding on to another shinigami badge and ichigo not knowing that.

- Ginjou's evil smirk to himself after badge scene.

- Ginjou speciffically making sure Ichigo does not trust his father or urahara and his obvious knowledge about Isshin, something Ichigo does not know..

- Tsukishima just coincidentally happening to force Ichigo right into Ginjou's lap, after Ichigo rejects him first time.

- GInjou going out of his way to make himself seem trust-worthy(entire previous chapter)

- Yukio speeding time up in training so Ichigo "coincidentally" somehow manages to get back home where Tsukishima somehow knowingly waits for him.

- Riruka's obvious guilty conscience, which grows stronger and stronger as she connects more and more to Inoue(as well as last chapter's cover hinting at Inoue/Riruka friendship making Riruka redeem herself)



Currently the only question that remains is Tsukishima. Is he:

A) Evil and working alone.

B) Good and working alone against ginjou's group(maybe he had to kill previous shinigami to stop ginjou's plan or he was previous shinigami).

C) Evil and working together with Ginjou in loose sense.



and what are Ginjou's and Tsukishima's connection to Isshin.
