Bleach Chapter 480 Discussion

Slow start, but considering this is the "final" arc i anticipate it will pick up since there are many plot devices that still have to be used; All though the thing that makes me wonder about the Quincy idea is that while it makes sense, are the Quincy even a threat considering they were almost eliminated in the past and if Ishida is considered a top rate Quincy... it doesn't show to much promise for a antagonist against any sort of Captain or perhaps even Lieutenant Soul Reaper.



Quincy powers depend on the surroundings, not themselves.



Ishida in his final form pretty much one-shotted Mayuri.

All I gonna say: boring.

The final arc begins!

I fear the Bleach fandom might also go to shit like AOT, so I'm gonna catch up to the manga.

You never know. Better safe than sorry.

Well, not quite what I expected. A whole chapter to show Ichigo being badass. Two new side characters? Wonder if we'll ever see them again.



I have to say though, it looks like Kubo had time to actually do some entire backgrounds. And is it me or is he actually filling up most all of the space here? Hope that keeps up.



I must say, I'm surprised that they're even mentioning the Quincy again, much less teasing them as a forefront attraction. We'll see how this goes.



This is not just about quincies. There's HUGE amount of stuff to be revealed this arc :)

5 Quincies in that title page @_@



There's a theory going on that  
Royal Guards are consisting pretty much only of quincies or are, litterally, the thing from which Quincy teachings originated

So I guess the last arc was really a pointless filler *shrugs*, and don't cry everyone, this arc is going to last like 10 years.



Yeah totally pointless. Except for developing Ichigo's character, explaining chad's powers and overall being horribly importantt in terms of foreshadowing.

Are they new characters or i just missed them while watching anime and then continuing the manga from here.

Anyway, that man from the shadows, seems like something is coming!

I guess i was 2 hyped up from the 3 month break. Im disappointed in this chapter.



I like Bleach and all just wish we get some back info now.

I'll summarize my feelings: Basically, the chapter was fine. Not spectacular; not awful either. Art was good as usual, and space filled up. Not much information given, but the whole thing had the flavor of an opening scene in a movie before the credits.



What I liked about it for sure, was Ichigo basically telling Yuki "Strap in, this one's gonna be wild." From Kubo to us. I hope he means it.

I thought Kubo was going for a darker tone at the start seeing two newbies get brutally killed right off the bat but nope Ichigo had to save the day and look cool..oh well at least it felt long wonder how this *Final* arc do.
