Nuebot posted:So did urahara, Grimjow and Nel just die then? Who the gently caress knows. I dropped Bleach, but I always knew I would go back to see how it ended. It felt like it was building to at least something for its finale, some vague payoff to the larger of its loose threads. Instead we get "then the good guys won and lived happily ever after, the end". I just feel... hollow, like it robbed me of any good vibes I might one have had for it, then instead of getting to see it die so I'd at least have that, it's just... gone. No closure, no satisfaction, just a vague sense of dissatisfaction that it won't ever come back and fix.

Reminder that at the end of both series this somehow had almost 3 times the chapters of noted much better series Beelzebub

I just came to the realization that Bleach's ending, was much like Metal Gear Solid: The Phantom Pain...there wasn't one and the "ending" was horribly anticlimactic...

the phantom pain takes place decades before the conclusion to the series and was showing you how the characters got from point a (peace walker) to point b (original metal gear) the ending did feel kinda similar in that both seem like they were cancelled right near the finale tho, I'll give you that

I kept reading for Mayuri, so in that way I'm fairly satisfied.

Doctor_Fruitbat posted:Who the gently caress knows. I think you're trying to find more to Bleach than there ever was. The ending was rushed as hell, but it would not have been any different if it hadn't been cancelled. The universe that didn't cancel Bleach just saw a poo poo ton more meaningless fights for a few years until Ichigo's sword got broken, fixed, and then Ichigo kills Ywach with his sword turning into the original sword. Then Rukia becomes captain and we see everyone in a happy epilogue. The only difference is that in this version it happened over 7 chapters instead of 50, but the content is very much the same.

Gonna be honest, I could've done without Mayuri after his fight with Ishida in SS. His later fights were just stupid. I mean that's true for everyone, but more so for him.

Could you leave it open a bit longer to see if we can get some news on the live action movie?

Hell, keeping Mayuri alive and nominally a good guy after SS always felt weird to me. I remember when he told that one Espada "THE TRUE POWER AND MEANING OF SCIENCE" like he wasn't guilty of a million war crimes and ethical breaches.

ishida should have killed him when they fought the first time. if anyone did not earn a happy ending, it's him he's probably only even alive so that kubo can think up new ways to draw his head

Does poor Uryu not have a single kill? I mean, I know Chad doesn't, but Chad's a plank of wood with a face drawn on it anyway so it fits. Uryu is at least theoretically interesting.

Serious Frolicking posted:well, you have to remember that naruto once had a panic attack and started hyperventilating when someone told him that sasuke was a huge rear end in a top hat, terrorist and murderer and no one else even wanted him to come back. He doesn't become the greatest hokage; he becomes the last one and lets shadow clones raise his kids because "hey I get their memories or whatever it counts".

I'm ok with the ending. I do wish we knew what really happened to all of the characters who weren't shown, and what they did to replace the soul king. But I'm ok with the parts of the ending that we got. Just ok.

Ichigo's sisters still look like children/teenagers and they're supposed to be 23 now. Ghost babies? Aizen wins? Ichigo keeps his childhood friends and Orihime has none. Great ending.

ever since the main series ended everything kishi has written has revolved around the theme of absentee fathers. i find that both fascinating and hilarious. it didn't hurt that salad gaiden was really good, either.

Like at least the series would have run its course rather than just stopping suddenly out of embarrassment. If you can't hold on to that one small shred of dignity then why bother doing anything.I have to ask, when these last few chapters played out, did the thread just collectively go "wait, hang on, it isn't just about to stop, is it?  ". Or was there some amount of warning beforehand?

Like the previous year's worth of chapters had just been I USE MY SPECIAL MOVE NO IT'S INEFFECTIVE BECAUSE OF MY SPECIAL MOVE WELL I USE MY MORE SPECIAL MOVE NO IT'S STILL INEFFECTIVE BECAUSE OF MY EVEN MORE SPECIAL MOVE until the good guy's move actually worked like you read the geometry dude who turned into a bunch of flamingos who were killed by Kira, right you read that Bleach needed to be cancelled or Kubo was never gonna get there

Doctor_Fruitbat posted:Yeah, I know. the cancellation was announced maybe 2 months ago? though, some sad souls on reddit tried desperately to convince themselves that it was not true. it was very obvious in the manga when kubo learned he had gotten canned, because all the lengthy pointless bullshit he had set up ended almost immediately and he jumped straight to the first ywach/ichigo fight.
