One thing I learned about Bleach is consistency in the plot is not likely.  There are plenty of fan theories to explain around the inconsistencies, but I don't think Kubo really cares much about plot holes.  He made up a remarkable universe that entertains me, but I do my best not to take it too seriously.



Does anyone else imagine the battle music from the anime whenever they read the manga?

There are still so many open questions...

Did SS somehow overthrow the Quincies, who were in control of Hollow-peacekeeping way back?

Who is SS's King and when will he make his move?

Will they release Aizen for the final fight?

What does Kirge mean when he tells Ichigo that "he knows them well"?

How does Urahara really fight into all of this; are all the theories that he's the evil-one really dismissed yet?



I could go on and on but I'm really hoping for Kubo to at least answer the major questions, since this is the final arc.

i mean ok i can accept that shinigami and people in SS live for hundreds to thousands of years and if we assume that the "man" they are talking about is that quincy leader guy and from my understanding quincy are living people y does he still live ? o_0



it COULD be that he died a human death and would be a quincy again as a spirit but if we assume this shit would't ichigo getting a secound life too if he died as human ?



cant buy this shit kubo really...



maybe a flaw in my thoughts somewere but thats how i understand itYeah I think it's like that, don't know about Ichigo's situation, maybe if he dies as a human his soul (shinigami body) also dies, it's a rare case...



We got good information, and the battles are comming.

So maybe this Vandenreich leader was once even the Captain-Commander until Yamamoto defeated him.

Yeah or the Vandenreich king and Yamamoto were competing 1000 years ago, I believe he is also a shinigami and perhaps got the near extinct Quincies together to fulfill his plan whatever that may be, simple revenge would be too obvious.



I want to see Ichigo beating the shit out of Kirge and the majesty seems to be sneaky, didn't they say SS had five days before the invasion.

Yamamoto founded the Shinigami Academy 2000 years ago.

Then, he 'restructured' the Gotei 13, some time later (not sure when).

Then, a 1000 years ago, he became the captain-commander of the Gotei 13. The chances of that story getting told in this arc is pretty high now.



It needs to be told if the rest of our questions are going to be resolved.



And of course the story about how the Quincy-group in the real world got destroyed 200 years ago...

Aside the fact that we pretty much get little to no new information (ok, so it's Yamamotos fault, that's new) and just people whining and stating the obvious, I'm really REALLY REALLY annoyed by the fact, that Tite Kubo really has to go with the stereotypical portayal of Nazis for the Quincy, including pointless words of German mixed in. [sarcasm]Because we haven't seen that before.[/sarcasm]



Why? Just why?

What in the world do Quincy have to do with Nazis? There's no point. The "spanish" Arrancar were still pretty cool, this is just... urg. What stereotype is the next? I don't have a problem with german characters or german language here and there in Manga/Anime, but why does it have to be the f*cking Nazis? You know, Tite Kubo? German history begins in the tenth century, choose something else than Nazis.



This... why... I don't... just let me cry in my little dark corner.



the similarities to the Nazi could also mean that they are a well organized group, with a settled hierarchy, as the Nazi army was at one point.





I kinda agree. I don't think kubo set out to make them Nazis, they just remind us of them because the are a radical military force and they have a German motif. The only new Quincy shown thus far that looks sort of "Nazi-ish" is Kirge Opie. The king and all the random minions don't really come off as being Nazi stereotypes.
