Kinda annoyed that Ichigo chose the same haircut as Naruto in the future, but working in a clinic wouldn't allow him that wild metal hair that looks epic on him

What.. ? He actually looked like a younger Isshin, rather than hokage Naruto.exactly lol. I don't know why people feel the need to try and compare this to naruto when the endings are nothing alike besides both having children.

Well that chapter...existed.  Wasn't good, not bad, just existed.

Although, anyone else find Chad becoming a boxer weird?  Like, considering his backstory/personality and such it seems odd to me that he'd take up a career in punching people.

So this was it, what a long journey! It didn’t take me 15 years to finish Bleach like others, but 74 volumes are still a great amount, and it took me a while to buy all of them to begin with, due reprint issues in my country.



I heard a lot of bad opinions about Bleach and many people discouraged me from reading it, considering it a total waste of time. Some people love it, others consider it one of the worst mangas out there.



I rate battle shonen based on how much they entertain me, and can get over one or two plot holes. Bleach entertained be most of the time greatly, except the Fullbringer arc which felt like a filler to me, even though some character appear briefly in the last arc too. Bleach has also many, many plot holes and issues here and there, but I have to say, most of them didn’t bugged me that much.



I overall enjoyed it, but as many already said, the pace is a problem in this series. I appreciate the fact Kubo gave every character some “screen time”, but some fight were way to long and some parts really felt stretched to me. The more the story reached its end, the more it got crazy and confusing, and not necessarily in a good way.



Can’t say I liked the ending, it felt rushed, but I read Kubo was being cut off, so he had to rush things. I think he himself would have liked to give more aftermath chapters and more explanations and whereabouts of other characters, like Urahara an Yoruichi. I hope she is safe.



I have a hard time giving it an 8, it feels more like a 7.5 to me. But since that’s not possible and 8 feels to much, I’m gonna go with a 7.

It was a good read.

The story was absolutely terrible with all the plot conveniences and too much favouritism towards a few characters by the mangaka. So many loose plot devices.



But all the characters and fights were super cool and badass and beautifully drawn and executed well. Thats what drove me to keep reading. (yeah, there were some cringe fights in between).

So many back to back awesome fights that there wasn't much need of a deep plot.



Also after reading this I came to realize how slow the pace of anime was. And some part of the anime that I considered canon were actually fillers/anime canon.

So this is how it ended... can't help but feel disappointed... I was hoping the ending would had a twist that somehow Yhwach would had won, but that wasn't the case.

And instead of either a sequel or the anime coming back, we get a live action movie... Bleach was a beloved series of mine and was thanks to it that i got so much into anime. So as a fan of Bleach im just sad... I'm sad with how it ended, i'm sad that this arc got so rushed, i'm sad everything we will get after this is just a live-action movie...

But despite everything, i like to say thanks Kubo. I know this is not how you wanted to end this series, but regardless of that i like to say thanks for the ride.

I hope you enjoy sitting in that chair for all eternity Aizen-sama. Shame Kubo didn't do much with him after hyping up his return.

What a trash ending so many characters didn't get any closure, and important ones like Yoruichi, Urahara and whatnot.

I think the last arc especially this final caps they were really rushed and didn't have development even the fights just showed endings and some plot after plot so raw. Kubo had good ideas about this arc but tried to give sense to everything and it comes to a lot of loose ends. So if I had to give some grade it would be 6/10 because I really love this history but it could be 5/10 or 4/10.

Bland as fuck ending. I literally felt nothing. Ichigo x Orihime and Rukia x Renji.... bah! Feels like Naruto all over again. The RenRuki kid looks really retarded. Like it shouldn't have existed. Bleach gets a 4/10 from me.



To be honest, I'm more surprised at the fact that spirits can have kids.



Makes you wonder what the point of the living world is if in the Soul Society you don't get hungry if you don't have reiatsu, you live for millennia and age slowly, and can procreate.



Souls reincarnate. You don't create new souls.



SS inhabitants are not literal souls. They are bodies made out of reishi inhabited by a soul.



Any newborn be it in real world or SS is reincarnation of someone passed away.







Yes, yes, yes. Memories of Nobody. So instead of flesh and bone made out of carbon and calcium we instead have flesh and bone made out of reishi... Which also causes them to age slower, except in Ichika's case.....



Yes their bodies mimic live bodies. The only difference is that the only true way tokill someone with a reishi body is to behead them. Other injuries are treatable(Hence why Yuha took his time completely evaporating Yamamoto)

Wasn't it implied that they adopt spirits, not reproduce?

Again that's specific for Byakuya's wife. They adopt children whenthey can't have their own.  That's a common practice intended for continuation of noble families.



True and Yorouchi's sister help with that, however it is said that Ichigo was dangerous because he was alive and shinigamis are daed aren't they ? So they shoudn't be able to have kids or if they are, it should have been forgiven.
