Bleach Chapter 538 Discussion

What. Why did the Asauchi Ichigo chose have a hollow mask? What's more, it was eerily similar to the one he used to have. Return of Hollow Ichigo?!? YES.



Shuuhei's Bankai? I'm expecting a ridiculous looking scythe but we'll see.



Wow, Komamura history. Didn't think he'd ever get anything.

Wow, that's a big dog.

5 things:



1. Hollow asauchi: do we get to see ichigo's hollow side again. Brilliant.



2. Hitsugaya: Does a stolen bankai mean he can't use his shikai anymore i wonder?



3. Hisagi's bankai: God for you man. Looking forward to it. I'd love to see how it matches up to Muguruma's wind bankai as well. Kazeshini must be badass.



4. That is one huge dawg.



5. With all these bankai floating about. Methinks Ishida will definately find himself one. Or at the very least he'll MURDER Mayuri for old times sake.

Since when can most of the vise captains use bankai...?

Anyway it was a good chapter.

Hisagi Shuuhei has a bankai? WTF since when?! It was probably mentioned a while back and I simply forgot about it but still... I'm so excited to see his bankai now. His shikai alone, Kazeshini, is too awesome. :D



So that Asauchi was pretty much 'hollow' Ichigo. I wonder what Ichigo's new zanpakutou will be like. Also, the last page was a surprise. Didn't think Komamura would get his own spotlight. I'm guessing that huge shaggy dog is Komamura's 'master'. :P

Ojiji-sama i think means uncle judging from other sources



Ah, okay. Thanks for clearing that up.



I wonder who exactly is this Ojiji-sama

Hm... I think now that all vice captains are really exactly that: one step closer to captain. Renji and Ikkaku had their bankais, and now during that 17 month break Kensei finally caught up. It's a pity about Kira though... sad how kubo doesn't even hint at his funeral

Did all those Asauchi just kneel before Ichigo?  Wow!  Is this a sign of something mindblowingly wonderful to come?  That was probably the most interesting thing of this short chapter.  Oh, seeing Komamura's grandfather (or uncle?) was interesting as well.  Hopefully, we'll get an awesome backstory on Komamura.



If Hollow Ichigo is making a comeback, I hope I'll get to see Old Man Zangetsu again.
