At the end of this arc, Ichigo better be nailing that MILF, she obviously wants it. So far, things have been pretty entertaining, there's nothing better than seeing Ichigo severely trolled. Fai said:
With what tsukishima pulled off, he no longer has that audience. Without it - Ichigo is just a scared child who let his mother die and kept hiding behind his own benevolent and heroic deeds.Regardless of his audience's presence, Ichigo has always been a scared child who let his mother die and kept hiding behind his own benevolent and heroic deeds. Kubo has made that fact rather blatant since the beginning... To me, one of more obvious underlying purposes of this arc is to show how Ichigo, regardless of how strong he's become or has previously been, hasn't really changed, yet everyone around him has in one way or another. I don't like how Bleach has become one drawn out coming of age tale.
