1. Yes, Kubo drew the chapter. But did he say ANYWHERE that this was The Big Revelation? No one. Whoever that is disappointed and raving are the ones who think "this is it". That includes you and all the other haters. If bringing the 'weak' character Ukitake into the plot doesnt change the big picture then I dont know what does. Maybe if Ichigo was actually a SS experiment huh?
Kubo himself said that. A few weeks ago, in the MAL Forum Discussion Thread about Chapter 462 of Bleach, Fai said, and here I quote his exact words from Post #5:
Fai said:
Also, according to Kubo's more recent interviews, there's one chapter coming up soon in this arc that ill completely change everyone's perception of what is going on as, quoting kubo, it made the publishers drop their jaws to the floor from shock.
And then this chapter happened. And it turned out to be what it is. And there's only one chapter with the big twist. Not two, not three, not many, just one.
See? This is a fact. It's different from a fantasy because it has actual basis in reality.

2. So SS isnt monitoring Ichigo's reiatsu and controlling it, then who is? And FYI, GPS doesnt measure ANYTHING. It TRACKS.
Very good, you've just proven my point. The badge is just a tracker and not some ominous device that controls him. Compared to the crimes SS has committed, this is irrilevant.

3. The point is jumping into conclusions. You did not deny that. Good for you.
No, the point is getting you off that high horse of yours where you just love giving sermons and patronize the pepole you deem inferior. Not only you didn't deny this, you're still stubbornly firm on your ideas. Good job.

No relation whatsoever to my point. "We as audience see a clearer picture than the characters in the story. We have the luxury to flip back past chapters and look at everyone's perspective." And FYI again, I am not a 'boy'.
Well, excuse me princess, but I am too part of the audience. I too have read the whole manga and I also have the right to have an opinion about it. Perhaps you wanted to say that your opinion as a fan is somehow "better" than mine, as I hope it isn't true, as there is no "better" opinion in an argument?
icegenie said:
"It is just the start/unveiling of a whole new part of the big picture."
More will be explained in the following chapters. Duh. Back to point 1. If bringing the 'weak' character Ukitake into the plot doesnt change the big picture then I dont know what does.
Again, why you're so sure that "It is just the start/unveiling of a whole new part of the big picture"? You're not in Kubo's head and you have no idea how the next chapter will develop. For all we know, it may be only action without talking.

Same for us. We can say whatever we want. And you can say whatever you want. You can TROLL for as long as you like because you KNOW you are trolling. i.e. You KNOW that you are just making a fool out of yourselves. (go ahead, I know you will deny it.) Of cos, Im not like reaght. Please go ahead and read Bleach for all you want and hate it for all you want as everytime Bleach is read, its popularity goes higher. Thank you very much.
Really? Now you're using the "You're a troll!" argument? Great! That's exactly what I wanted! You just proven yourself that anyone disagreeing with you is a repulsive pariah with worthless opinions, and thus must be reprimanded! Great display of maturity right here!
And if you really believed that I was a troll, why you have fed me?
icegenie said:
Lastly, obviously you do not know much about Kubo. It's okay that you come here and start raving how bad was the chapter and how much Bleach sucks. It just shows how ignorant you are about what you're reading. You can not like what we are predicting. Sure, everyone has different opinions about how the story will turn out. Go ahead and disagree.
Again, claiming basless superiority towards me because your opinion makes you fell better. And it's funny that you pretend to accept different opinons when this whole paragraph was just you sorely dismissing mine without any basis.
icegenie said:
'Mistakes' ? what 'mistakes' ? If you are talking about loopholes, it's just silly to discuss this because the story is not over. But I know you love to jump into conclusions. Thats fine I guess. You can be a better writer than 'worthless' Kubo and your manga will sell more than 72 million in Japan and be one of top in U.S. too. Good for you.
And now you're impersonating a Bieber fangirl with the argument "You're not famous, so you have no right to criticize something!". Newsflash: not every single critic is affected by the tall poppy syndrome.
Furthermore, it's unsettling how you regard Kubo as someone who can do no wrong. You have to learn that nothing is perfect in this world, especially narrated works. You're bound to find some flaws in every story, drawn, written, filmed or animated and you have to accept this. However, you seem just so stubbornly firm in your conviction that everything that Kubo does is no less than perfect, that it just seems so uncanny.
icegenie said:
Oh, feel free to deny alllll my points. It's okay. I know you will be in denial.
And, last but not least, you used the dead horse argument "You are what you hate". Good job, give yourself a round of applause!
It's interesting, however, how every single one of your arguments turned out to be just one big "ad hominem" against me. You didn't prove anything, you don't have anything to back your claims, and you lost time and words just by making petty attacks against me. I should be angry for your despicable behavior, but I understand the fact that you're sore about my attacks against someone you admire so much.
As MST3K opening song said:"It's just a show, I should really just relax.", so don't be mad about the other's opinions, it's just a comic book. There are far more serious things in the world.

And also, a good writer will not suddenly drop a spotlight on a 'weak' character without giving any hints. That then is what I call a lousy writer who has no planning and no more inspiration.
How ironic, that's exactly what Kubo did in this chapter. :)
