You mean the manga that had 300 chapter "War" arc which consisted of one overpowered character reviving dozens of dead fodder again and again, main people defeating them with LOVE and then NEXT CHALLENGER being resurrected? And how is that any different from Karakura arc? Except for the fact that at least some fights in Naruto were relevant to the plot and that your "300 chapters" are really only around 60 as of now with the war drawing to an end.



Karakura arc actually had fights, even if it was not a "war". And it did not have a mary sue main character defeating people with hugs.



Also Kubo did not resurrect a bunch of characters for the sake of destroying whatever good was about them with hugs and peace and love talk. Kubo also did not undermine the main basis of his main character by completely taking away everything that was great about him at the start of the story. While Naruto is second coming of jesus christ with a great dose of hyperventilation, Ichigo is still recognizably Ichigo, even if smarter, calmer and with more apparent flaws.



Majority of confrontations in the latter part of FKT battles were important - Vaizards had perfect reason to want to fight aizen, hell, the last few fights with urahara and aizen forwarded this manga's plots miles forward with the whole soul king discussion.



Hell bleach at least MOVED forward with each arc while Naruto has been stuck in the loop ever since start of Part II.



You seem to equalize naive forced idealism with meaning behind the battles. Thankfully I do not and have happily left that trainwreck.

Then let me sum up the entirety of the plot since Aizen's reveal:



There is a being that pulls the strings in the background that may or may not be not the nicest guy in the world which may or may not justify revolting against him.



You can thank me later.





See, you can do this kind of thing both ways. It's utterly pointless and ridiculous.

Kubo-sensei.. Where is your editor? What are you writing these days that makes us all want to stick our heads into a hot oven. I really don't understand what he's trying to do with this arc... at all. I only hope he has a very sensible idea for the next arc because this one was so strange, it was like a Weekend at Burnie's movie... The guy is dead but the two main characters are trying really hard not to let anybody know, but he just seems "off" somehow. Yeah, something is "off" about Bleach these days.

Wait, what just happened?

That felt so...I feel like I miss Ginjo.



Aww, at ending. Tsuki ;_;

This chapter sucked very badly.



I don't think there'll be another time skip since Kubo said he was going to carry the manga on for another 10 years, so he could put the FBers back in in three years time and still have them in the manga for like 7 years.



There were a lot of questions unanswered, maybe they'll be revealed in the next (crappy?) chapter. I'm too lazy to type them out though, I think some a few of them were asked earlier in the thread.

huh wait, werent they human? so if they die dont they become ghosts... "plus" was it? and then they get sent to SS, and since they've got spiritual powers they can become shinigami?

This was something I noticed, as well. It seems that the human characters would die as humans and still be alive as souls. They should still be around, technically, especially when none of them died via a zanpakuto (except maybe Giriko). Just a normal human death would cause a plus soul to emerge from the body, and it would require a konso.



It's like Kubo forgot all about this which is the very foundation of Bleach manga...
