I don't know if he's worse than the fire idiot. He's definitely a huge disappointment after the last two.

I hope Kenpachi's shikai is another Kenpachi.

Finally an answer on Googly eyes. He apparently was imagined.

Eventhough nothing happened I liked this chapter. It's just Kenpachi having fun and cutting things.

Also, if two people imagine one thing it's twice as big! I bet you didn't know you could quantify imagination.

It isn't that two people can imagine more intensely, but rather that they can imagine two different things at once.

Except that they both seem to be imagining the same thing, instead of two different things at once.

Man, Kenpachi's last fight is going to be this guy? Hopefully whatever Kenpachi does to destroy the meteor doesn't just exist in some mirror universe where nobody else who is fighting cares or comments on it.

Kenpachi's shikai makes other people bloodthirsty

Really thinking this is the case. The kid is all kinds of confused as to why he's suddenly bloodthirsty and unfocused and he's got a Zaraki grin on his face the entire way through and keeps forgetting to heal up. Kinda funny that he'd be getting an illusion kinda sword after all this time but either Zaraki gets people into a frenzy by just being there or his sword actively encourages fighting when it's released.

Also while I'm at it, I was rereading some of the chapters and I'm calling it: weird fat guy with curly shoes and eye-staff mind controls people. When the sternritter first attack and Gate Guy starts smashing up the research building and making the people inside stab one another they showed a guy standing off in the corner laughing in the same weird way. I wonder who his opponent is going to be?

Off topic, but this page http://readms.com/r/bleach/576/2336/22 is maybe the creepiest thing I have ever seen.

The idea of imagining another version of your self to enhance your imagination capabilities bothers me. Wouldn't the real Grenny have to spend most of his focus imagining the second one, which would only let the second one imagine things? If that isn't the case, then what is stopping him from imagining an infinite amount of himself? I'm putting to much thought into this.

Why can't the other just imagine themselves being the real one and be self-sustaining? As long as neither of them starts to imagine that the other one is the real one, instead, they would both exist as the real Gremmy. He could make an infinite amount of himself, but it seems like any unaligned imagination between the copies will lead to many of them dying.

All sensitivity has long ago atrophied
I'm getting a sneaking suspicion his release is a scythe. 3 big time (mainly Euro style) weapons we have yet to see: scythe, one hand axe, 2 hand axe...I only say scythe due to the whole "field" in the translation.

Also, is that the name of his sword or the release name? Everyone else has a word or phrase as their release, but I don't think anyone really has a single Japanese word as the release. Unless "that's great!" Or "this makes me hard" is the release phrase that pays.

Yes the release phrase is "This makes me hard". Kenpachi is the only person who would get a boner from a batter it makes perfect sense. I realize this could be read sarcastically so I'm going to clarify that I am serious.

Kenpachi's shikai just turns the sword into a small stick and he cuts stuff even better with it because "gently caress you I'm the Kenpachi".
