Bleach Chapter 686 Discussion

A think was an ok end. Everybody happy, families, kids.

But at the same time was a LOT rushed, Kubo decide to end everything with only a few pages, ignore the end of a lot of popular characters, i mean we didn't even saw Urahara, Yoruichi ?

I think Kubo could've work a little more that final

Well that ending was pretty alright, Seeing Ichigo and Orihime getting together, Rukia and Renji as well and finally their children.



But I feel there should be more in the end. Overall the manga was good but got boring in the end.

Oh man, so I'm finally here. WHAT. A. RIDE.



I see that there's a lot of criticism about TYBW arc, but I personally absolutely loved it. I really enjoyed the Squad Zero and the Stern Ritters. Plus getting to see old charas and so many plot twists, it just won me over (Especially Tsukishima, what an amazing dude. I can't even count the times he has helped me, the absolute bro.)



I DO think that the ending was rushed, it was like hitting Yhwach and bam! 10 years later.  Like... what happened? lol... Did Bazz-B and Jugram actually die? (I really like them, I had hopes).

Plus, there are soooo many characters left out from the "where is everyone now" that it made me sad.



Now... Aizen having the last words (of wisdom, mind you)... completely unexpected. He's my absolute favorite Bleach character and I was thrilled to see him again. He's the best. Hope he gets released soon lol #FreeAizen



So Orihime won lol... That surprised me, I was absolutely sure that Ichigo/Rukia was endgoal, but what do you know. I'm not even mad cause I'm not really a shipper myself.



So yeah... Bleach is not perfect at all, but I guess is my guilty pleasure because I love it so much I became a fan of it! (for the manga and for Brave Souls).



I know I have a couple of things to read further, so I'll do that.



And man... I can't wait to see TYBW animated!! I'm so hyped!!!

Good lord,it ended.And what a trainwreck it was.



I found it hilarious how the very last chapter cover has everyone in the human cast shown....And the back of Ishida's head.Really suits his role in the series overall,haha.



Like the last 10 chapters,it was completely rushed and it really,really showed. Ichigo and Hime hooking and getting a kid when Ichigo would barely even notice her was pretty terrible and sudden,if somewhat predictable IMO (like NaruHina,but this one eventually got itself a movie somewhat explaining it). Shounen manga and their epilogues with kids. Renji and Rukia together was cool though.



Having Ywach maybe return,only for Junior to show up and take his residual power out like nothing? Another anticlimax,although teasing Yhwach's return in the first place in the second-to-last chapter was a pretty terrible choice to begin with.



And finally,a glimpse of how the fight ended and...Meh.Nothing was really explained at all,and Aizen,of all people, gives the aesop about courage and needing to accept the reality of death.



Not even gonna bring up the cast that either casually bushed off death,or just plain disappeared (like Grimmjow,Yoruichi and ESPECIALLY Nel and Harribel).

I have been reading Bleach weekly ever since catching up with it over a decade ago and it really never recovered after the first Soul Society arc.«



IMO, a lot of the problems with Bleach started at the SS arc. I though the very first arc was by far the best of them all.



Anyway,up until Warwelt happened,Bleach've left me pretty numb.This rushed ending.....Was pretty flaccid as well.



GG,Bleach.

- Great character designs & art, that’s apart from lacking backgrounds if we’re being honest.



- The large cast of characters were mostly enjoyable, but even those that I liked had moments that left me scratching my head at their stupidity or were completely wasted by Kubo. Even when Ichigo gets “he is the chosen one” powerups and one shots his enemies, he still fights with the mentality he had in the early chapters as if his brain was incapable of developing; panicking and screaming like a banshee.



- In general, really fun power system & powers to see in action, but the powerscaling in Bleach might be one of the worst in all of shounen. Once we got past the SS arc I realized I needed to turn my brain off for pretty much every fight that occurred. Good guy is winning the fight, bad guy does something that puts him over the edge, nevermind since the good guy had something else up in his sleeve making the enemy fodder in the grand scheme of things.



I’m sure Kubo and his editors had a rough idea of where they were going after Hueco Mundo, but most of the story developments felt like Kubo throwing shit at the wall to see what will stick. Was he aware that endless death fakeouts and cliffhanger chapter ends become tiresome after a while and lose their overall impact?



Anyway, even with my many complaints around Naruto and One Piece to an extent, Bleach is by far the worst of the overhyped 3. Gege might’ve taken inspiration from Kubo for Jujutsu Kaisen, but he’s by far a better and more effective writer. I’ll cleanse my palette with One Punch Man.
