Well at least these last few chapters have been building up plot. Unlike another series (looks at Naruto).
naruto didnt have to build up plot because kishi actually had a plot and other characters to work with beforehand and didn't have to pull things out of his ass for the last arc...
Thank you. I REALLY needed a laugh today.
Narutoe threw away its plot once Part II started. Since Part II all he ever did was pulling shit out of his ass. In last arc, LITERALLY, with zombie fights. The asspulls and trainwreckyness went to a such degree that Part I and Part II feel like entirely separate manga.
Bleach felt wtf at times as well.Power-ups out the woodwork without any full detail of aquirements,new characters come out of nowhere then their whereabouts are unknown,most fights not being all that exciting or wasted the opportunity to make them exciting.Bleach has had it's faults from time to time.
Point i'm making,is that Bleach is not perfect.Same goes for Naruto.This current arc is getting really interesting.I hope after the break,it will get more interesting.
In bleach and naruto i have noticed a dissapointing downwards trend in creativity from the authors. And I'm not talking about plot/characterization since we are all aware of the problems with those.
I mean in even the most basic things, like new powers and abilities of new characters. Think about it. In the Naruto final huge battle, rather than pitting Naruto heroes against a powerful array of villains, Kishi had the ultimate ass pull and just brought back to life a bunch of old characters to reuse their powers on the bad guys side! Seriously?! No need to think of new interesting abilities for villains, such as the Akatasuki.
And now this is happening to bleach as well, the quincies powers are primarily stealing bankais! So now we get to see some "cool" battles of old powers being reused by different sides. That is just ridiculously lazy writing. The espada were at least interesting in terms of their abilities!
