Bleach frustrates me. I am a completionist. I watched every episode of the anime (in order) and even stuck out some pretty bad filler. I decided to read the final arc in the manga so I could finish the story, but I just can't. I read some Death Note, and the amount that happens in every chapter is crazy compared to how little occurs in Bleach. I am officially dropping Bleach now :o(
Dude, you're comparing 2 very different series and not to mention the length.

According to some people in a manga we should always just see the strongest character facing the strongest opponent with an epic inexistant bgm. The weaks shouldn't ever come back and being shown because nobody obviously want to see someone weak. Fuck the story, let's just show some action and never insert any weaker character than the one presented so far because what we want is to show explosions and sword clashes.
The two new shinigami's character are there to give relief to the story, a different perspective but if you can only think that a character is important if he's strong (and vice versa) then you should open your eyes a bit.I actually agree with this in principle. Characters are there for more than just battle and if used properly, they can make it entertaining in their own way. The problem is that characters that have been brought back and the new ones are not being used for that. Harribel's only purpose has been to show how badass the Quincy are by capturing her, her Fraccion's only purpose so far has been as power hype, Loly and Menoly (who have apparently disappeared) are just there to be there, they don't contribute anything, and the two new shinigami are so bland that you could put any other character in their place and get the same result. Nel, Pesche and (maybe) Dondochakka are the only ones to be significant so far. People aren't angry that there are more characters, they're angry because the characters are being used badly.

wild Jr Aizen appears
That's actually Aizen. Don't you see, the villain that controlled the Arracnar and the entire soul society and Ichigo fought was just a mere illusion. Aizen has been the entire time on Soul Society.
Meh, boring chapter. Why Kubo wants to make people remember what we knew?; for a reason the internet exists.

What's up with you Kubo?! 1.Showing up characters about noone probably cared as some kind of badass. 2.Showing up some quincy deafiting those characters in one page to prove that's he's one TRULY strong badass. 3.Showing up defeated characters with their ultimate badass weapon. 4.KILL THEM ONCE MORE TIME TO SHOW THAT QUINCY ARE REEEEALY STRONG. I'm afraid what's coming next.
Besides, I hate that Ayon. It's creepy, don't want to see it anymore :|
That new Shinigami looks like spy/another tough badass for me. And I don't see a point of explaining Quincy vs Shinigami war once more time... I don't really understand why Kubo made those two new Shinigami as important characters? What, are they going to be new Ichigo's nakama? Or (god, hope not) they are some kind of "key" to defeat last enemy? ...Argh, I don't want to think about it anymore :<
^example of bleach fandom.
Characters die too fast < MEH THEY SHOULD STAY LONGER.
CHaracters get the time to shine < MEH THEY SHOULD HAVE DIED FASTER.
Battles are more even < MEH BORING WHY NO OVERPOWER'D STUFF?
Battles are one sides< LO LOL ITS ALWAYS ONESIDED NOW MEH SHOULD BE EVEN
Ichigo is overpowred <LOL BORING
Ichigo is equal < LOL BORING.
Ichigo fights smart < LOL HE SHOULD RUSH HEAD ON FIRST
Ichigo fights brainlessly < LOL WHY DOES HE NOT FIGHT SMART.
Seriously, there's no satisfying of some people. Some of cases are easily explained by innability to hold attention on manga for longer than five seconds unless every panel is pointless exploding of rubber people, but oh well.

Mostly just a recap of old info since the war is about to start, doesn't make the chapter more interesting but its needed i guess, tho i hope they dnt make the Quincy all OP now, even if they got stronger they still shouldn't be head and shoulders above the Shinigami
Also disagree on the concept of war, it should have been said war is fought when both sides think they are fighting for a just cause, since many times its war against tyranny, or examples like WW2 and I'm sure everyone knows there was nothing "just" about the Nazi.
FOR that side, yes it was. People fighting in the side of nazi germany generally did believe in their ideology. Every war is a clash of ideologies.
However what I get from this is that there's more truth to the whole quincy/shinigami stuff than balance, from the way the 6th seat worded that. The way its implied, i think there's some huge secret behind the war none in SS want to openly talk about.

So the monster can't do shit against that dude, huh? What a shocking and unexpected turn of events...
It actually did a lot.
Kirge is bleeding, one of his wings got torn off and he IS generally near death.
It just did NOT do enough and even with that kind of damage he is a freaking beast in power. It showcases and parallels that speech of ideology.
Best example how resolve makes you lose fight is Ginjou. THis is the opposite situation. Kirge believes in his cause to a point that he does not care about the damage he got and has constant resolve and resolve = power.

Wtf, creating a monster from your cut off arms?
...really.
somehow missed an entire karakura arc? Because you are a bit too late for that reaction.
EDIT: Would it not be nice is "Balancers" became known as "Death Gods" because of quincy massacre?

I just think bleach would be better monthly with at least 45 pages .... because we wait every week and not much happens .... if it was monthly at least a lot would happen every chapter ... kinda like how D.gray Man got better when it went monthly, especially the ART cause then Tite Kubo will also get more time to make the ART in bleach even better !!!!
