Ch376-398
Ch376 Execution, Extinction 2
(Execution, Extinction 1 was in the prev post)
kya kensei~ how cool captain
Ch377: Shout at the Dark
oh yeah this is the fucky part
Ch378: Eyes of the victor
Ch379: Crushing...!
BYAKUYA & KEN-CHAN!!!!! i love them
Ch380: Devil, Devil, Devil, Devil
“a lowly half-shinigami” so does mayuri Know or
nnn mayuri pls
OOOO GOTTEM
Ch381: Words Just Don’t Like You
‘immerse you in terror’ MAYURI!!!! PLS!!!
that last closeup of ichigo’s and byakuya’s faces....i wonder
Ch382: The United Front (Discordeque Mix)
so united front 1 was one of the aizen reveal chaps where i took no specific notes and united front 2 was renji and uryuu setting szayel up in their trap...considering that we were just talking about kyoka suigetsu
oh ken-chan and byakuya are on a full name basis huh...
‘know your place’ byakuya pls....he does say that a lot....
“you’re in the way” BOTH OF U PLS!!!!!! i mentioned i think in the ichigo vs uryuu vs all the hollows fight that i love the “you’re interrupting our fight” thing (well i just went back over the post and it wasn’t then, idk when it was but at some point) but i do. i love it so much.
Ch383: Too Early to Trust
“trusting in someone is the same as depending on them. that is something the weak do. we have no use for it.” i see aizen is also unfamiliar with the conventions of the genre.
Ch384: Can’t Fear Your Own Sword*
oh!! like the LN titles (i keep meaning to read them....shuuhei my beloved) and oh this is a shuuhei chapter so....shuuhei book, shuuhei chapter, nice nice
i mean, tosen is right...hollowfication by choice vs by your mom passing it down to you in the womb is uh. why does that make it worse. like in-universe komamura is right, it’s corruption (in a heavy-handed metaphorical way) but...if, as komamura says, “the corruption i speak of is betraying your friends, allies and even subordinates in an attempt to gain excessive power” (which, fair!) then why did he bring up hollowfication to begin with? i know it’s symbolic but it comes off very awkwardly and with unfortunate implications....plus wanting power is good when ichigo does it right? (who was it who told him to go after it anyway, kenpachi? the kenpachi in his mind? idr ugh)
OH SHUUHEI :’( BABY :’(
“the most important thing for a warrior is not power but a heart that fears battle” ahh and that’s the similarity drawn with kira & shuuhei
also!!! one of the earlier chapters where shuuhei was fighting the fraccion it was about him not having enough fear.....interesting theme
take a shot every time someone gets impaled
Ch385: Vice It
man....tosen and komamura....
Ch386: The Beastial*
ohhhhhh
Ch387: Ignited
HOLY SHIT aizen does not miss any opportunity to be awful
and of course they would forgive him :( tbh now i just want some nice fic of shuuhei & komamura hanging out....tho knowing komamura’s ultimate fate i’m even more :(
Ch388: Eagle Without Wings 2 [Extreme Battlemaster Mix]
so Eagle Without Wings 1 was when byakuya and ken-chan haul everyone back to SS after Orihime gets captured. and the next chapter, Winged Eagles, was tatsuki punching ichigo thru a window. so i guess this is something with....urahara & keigo/mizuiro/tatsuki?
or not, it’s just ichigo v aizen
oh well that’s a sexc kubo panel....also ichigo’s mask remnant is kinda like grimmjow’s in the shot.
ahh ok “a will to fight without hatred is like an eagle without wings. you can’t protect anything with it. your helpless friends serve as nothing more than weights to hold you back” aizen is really fond of those metaphors
“WE will fight and protect YOU” weh yes give him that reversal!!!
Ch389: Winged Eagles 2
“letting you fight alone, now that’s pretty crazy. there’ll be loads of people who won’t be able to control their anger if you go it alone and get killed. don’t bear this burden alone and don’t give me any cheek. this fight belongs to all of us.” WELL SAID SHINJI!!!!
clear eyes full hearts can’t lose
komamuraaaaaaaaa my fave wolf boi
(as an aside oh god who even is my favorite? that’s hard to say behind ichigo)
“all of that ‘protecting the world’ nonsense is nothing more than a grand cause with a nice ring to it. we’re fighting so that we can live, so that you can live, and to protect everyone else from aizen’s grasp” SOI FON!!!
this is such a Great Dialogue chapter kubo i’m
“i can rely on their strength” THAT’S RIGHT ICHIGO!!!! BELIEVE IN UR COMRADES!!! SHONEN POWER OF FRIENDSHIP!!!!
well shunsui your words fall on deaf ears i’m afraid
Ch390: Beyond the Death Understanding
DAMN TELL HIM HITSUGAYA
Ch391: The Blazing Glaciers
“you cast a shadow on the ice” v nice
Ch392: The Breaking Glaciers
yeah even when i know it’s gonna happen it’s just. poor momo hasn’t she been through enough already
Ch393: The Burnout Inferno
and aizen’s lock of hair looks just like the glasses frame in the final panel
Ch394: The Burnout Inferno 2
YAMAJIIII he’s so fucken shredded....my god. i cannot describe the sensation, nearly 400 chapters into this manga about swordfighting and emotions and magic spells drawn on a white background, a shirtless old fire wizard military officer is punching a giant into submission with purely the spiritual power of his fists. i love it here.
Ch395: The Burnout Inferno 3
nnnn yamajii taunting aizen....
Ch396: The Bite
ah yes another ~forbidden technique~
yes yes all according to keikaku
Ch397: Edge of the Silence
well ichigo is legit shocked but it’s also a great reaction face....buddy, don’t worry, you really are a shonen protagonist! aizen just isn’t genre savvy
“did you think that your victories were a result of your efforts” ouch
“--a hollowfied quincy”. damn we had to wait how many years for the end of the sentence? (it was probably something only like 5...this is like 08 09 so yeah, maybe 6)
ok so rangiku had her torso shredded but she’s like, /here/....squints idr if she and isshin actually reunite in the last arc tho...
Ch398: Back from Blind
“i don’t know how to ask about it. i don’t know a good way to ask about it without trampling on your feelings” (and the rukia flashback that’s from....the memories in the rain sequence? note to self check this)
but, callbacks aside....yeah. yknow when you learn the family secrets and don’t know how to talk about them and never really do after it’s too late and i just ugh :(((( tho i guess this is the kind of secret that....idk. doesn’t quite hurt the same.
interesting that gin would bring out bankai...
