Filler? I don't even know 'er! aka the fuck-Bleach [SPOILERS] megathread! - Page 144

Welp, the chapter title makes perfect sense right at the end, there. Though for a second, I thought that Isshin was pulling a Rukia, instead of it being Rukia giving him powers a second time.

I mean, I figured from the chapter title that Rukia was going to show up, but the angle (and Rukia's initial invisibility) had me thinking it was Isshin or Urahara stabbing him.

But, uh, here's a question.

Rukia stabbed Ichigo through the heart with a zanpakuto, just like in chapter 1, to give him temporary powers. However, if you look at Rukia, you can see that her own sword is still in its sheath. So where did that other sword come from?

I'm guessing it's some sort of special thing Urahara made so she didn't lose her powers again by giving them to Ichigo. It's like a condom for her spirit powers, so she doesn't blow her whole load in Ichigo's gaping hole.

Its the sword Isshin has been carrying for like 3 chapters that Urahara obviously made for this purpose. The point was since you last saw it being carried by Isshin you where meant to think Isshin stabbed him just like Ichigo did at first.

Also that was not the heart. The heart is not in the middle of the chest. She stabbed him through the soul sleep and chain link or whatever they are called that are in the middle of the chest.

His gaping hole. I already said. In this chapter Rukia thrusts into Ichigo's gaping hole from behind just after Ginjo vacates it and fills him with her essence.

Eh, I remembered "heart" because that's how it was described in chapter 1.

Granted that was before all these "soul organs" were named, so yeah.

Aerozord · 08-03-2011, 03:43 PM

hmm she got a hair cut

but I think thats her zanpaktos third power, and she created an ice sword, though if I am right I dont know why she would.

Also, hey looks like someone got a promotion

Sithdarth · 08-03-2011, 03:48 PM

Its obviously the sword Isshin was carrying. It's drawn exactly the same way.

Locke cole · 08-03-2011, 04:34 PM

And I thought her sword's third "Dance" was to shatter into ice shards and reform.

The only other sword that it looks like would be one of Byakuya's Kageyoshi swords. But yeah, it's definitely the sword Isshin had. Looks like it's made entirely out of Spiritions.

Apparently they figured out a way to undo the final Getsuga Tensho more rapidly than it happened for his father. Also, it does appear to have unlocked new powers. Also, anyone else notice he doesn't seem to have left his physical body and yet has full command of his Soul Reaper powers? Or maybe he did and we just can't see his crumpled heap of a body through the dust. Oh and the outfit changed as well. I'm assuming this is probably a combination of having used the final Getsuga, mastered is fullbring, and reawakened his shinigami powers. The real question is can he still use his mask at the level he used to use it at?

Or... perhaps... HE IS NO LONGER PART HOLLOW.

But wouldn't that mean no more Zangetsu?
