Bleach Chapter 502 Discussion

Ass-Not kills Byakuya even though I doubt he's dead.



I thought Kenpachi would be lost again but damn he was roaming aroudn killing those Quincys.



5/5

I better not see any more complains that nobody important dies in bleach?Now we have Kira and Byakuya and I'm sure there's more to come



Rangiku got half of her stomach ripped off and she survived.

With the way things were presented, it's likely that Byakuya died but I do not beleive Kira died.

We'll see the real outcome of the casuality after the Quincy leave SS.

If Byakuya is actually dead, thats 2/3 of the bleach fans gone too.

Also people, I might be wrong, but was it not said that a sword shattering and disappearing by itself signifies user's death? Kubo did make it sure to show us that Byakuya's sword fell apart in his hand so...



Also from the wording used its not "byakuya seems to have died", its "from the observed facts, he is dead" )in the same way someone would say "those clouds are very dark and there's thunder, from that I could say there's a storm coming" or "the water is full of mud, its unhealthy to drink it")

Wasn't this also stated by the Aizen look-a-like #2 a few chapters ago.Well I can't really remember, I've marathoned the first 20 chapter about 3 weeks ago and immediately after that read some stuff in wikia (there are lots of stuff there from the Character Books), so I can't remember the source exactly.



Oh don't worry,it was.http://www.mangahere.com/manga/bleach/v53/c492/13.htmlIt's actually mentioned in the character book too, I've just re-checked, so in this chapter it's just been repeated or explained more thoroughly (I guess I read that part twice in the same day then :P). here's the page, check reference 3, it also has some info about SS that weren't mentioned in the manga:  http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Soul_Society

thanks anyway.

You do realize that neither were actually confirmed dead? Unless we get an actually-dead-montage (like with whats-his-name's funeral) I don't believe that anyone died. In fact I bet Kubo himself doesn't even know whether he wants them dead, so he just leaves himself options to bring them back later saying "nu-uh, I never said they're dead". I mean this IS Kubo we're talking about here.



Talking about characters not confirmed dead and coming back, I just remembered Gin. He is gonna be the one that showed up at Urahara's. Called it. this seems like a confirmation to me http://www.mangahere.com/manga/bleach/v53/c502/14.html

Gin is dead, Rangiku was with him when he died and she was mourning after that, it's logical that he died, he can't run off while she's with him then come back out of a sudden. About the other characters there is a simple reason why they're thought dead while they're not; their Reiatsu basically goes down and others think they're dead while they're not. My first post in this thread could also help abit:

It might be too late for this but I brought to make things (aka plot-holes by some people) clear, this was mentioned in an old official character book about Soul Society:

People can also be killed as regular Humans are, though they are capable of surviving wounds that would normally be considered fatal.

lots of information (that should've been told in the manga) were mentioned in the character books so if anyone have any things he's wondering he can go to bleach.wikia.com and search for what you want, here's SS's page: http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Soul_Society  (check the overview, reference 3 for more info about SS)
