Batmasterson posted:Aizen is just a big copy cat, stealing all of Urahara's ideas. You know when he's all alone and no one is around to smug at, this is what he obsesses over in anger. The real question is if he'll ever realize that instead of puppet mastering everything for the last hundred or so years he's just been a pawn.

Half of Dracula posted:Maybe whatever Aizen took from Rangiku is what was used as the base for the alpha arrancar that Isshin is fighting. Ichigo and Rangiku both have orange hair. It's canon! Maybe Aizen stole her Quincy powers since everyone with Orange hair is going to turn out to be a Kurosaki.

Lintwhite posted:I'd totally endorse a spin-off of this but I'm imagining it like a wacky sitcom where all three live together. Watch as Isshin and Ryuuken navigate their way through med school while Masaki cheers them on! And you can't forget the Very Special Chapter where Masaki goes into labor in the middle of the night and both Ryuuken and Isshin elbow each other out of the way to help her: "Don't worry, I'm a doctor." "You're just an intern!" Cue the laugh track I hope when newborn baby Ichigo cries he's got the Vizard sound filter on.

So I guess Ishida is going to use his powers via Urahara to fix Masaki, sealing both their powers. Which causes grandma Ishida to exile Masaki, which completely embitters Ryuuken toward the Quency and leads to the current situation.

We know that Masaki doesn't die until Ichigo is a little boy and his sisters are already born. Kain and Yuzu are the result of boring old non-spirit procreation.

Probably the maid, which is part of why Uryu isn't as good as his dad. The only other choice seems to be Uryu's grandma and I don't think this is that type of manga.

RatHat posted:Hate to break it to you, but cousins get married all the time. At the same time, living with your cousin is a lot more normal than living with your high school arranged marriage superhuman fiance. Kurosaki and Ishida seem to be more like clans than simply the last name of some dude, his sister, and their offspring. Masaki and Ryuken probably are somewhat related though since I'd assume the last known Quincy clans would have intermarried at least a little before now.

Batmasterson posted:I find it interesting when Urahara is explaining Hollowfication and says something along the lines of "we explored the procedure to give Shinigami quick and efficient upgrades." Who is the we he refers to? And I remember him first looking at hollowfication as a way to prevent the Shinigami disappearances? At least that is what he tells Tessai. Well, Mayuri was his research buddy and semi-co founder of the Research Division. Plus most of Aizen's frame job of him was pointing to Urahara's research and saying, "check this poo poo out".

Zogundar posted:You know what I'd like to see to facilitate further exposition to fill in the blanks left in this flashback? I still kind of hope that Ichigo just gets his Quincy training from inside his head. Either ghost mom does it, breaking out of Ichigo's inner Hollow, or he remembers the weird exercises she used to always do. I just really want to see Ichigo point blank shoot someone in the face with his new Quincy powers.

Aren't they just the ash zombies of people killed with that particular sword? So unless old man Yamamoto is the one who killed Ichigo's mom, I don't see how she's going to show up. Actually, was Yamamoto a big enough dick to have gone and killed some woman who was just walking with her son and got attacked by a Hollow? I mean, his one defining feature, other than incompetence, was being an inflexible rear end, but that big an rear end?

Ok, I'm still not sure why Ichigo's mom got her Quincy powers ganked. Bach apparently gobbled up all the powers of impure Quincy, but wasn't she a pure blood Quincy, last of her line?

SerSpook posted:She'd been tainted by the hollow. This is also why she was kicked out of the Ishida household. Yeah, but I figured Bach did a more generic move than simply checking off a list of which Quincy he'd steal the power from. Unless he did something individually, she's still a pure Quincy so she shouldn't be effected. Especially since her Hollow was sealed up tight in a double layer of Ichigo and Urahara/Ishin techno-ghost wrapping. Edit: And the Mangastream translation answers the question. Congratulations on specifically pissing on the last Quincy and his Omnipowered friend. Gyges fucked around with this message at 13:04 on May 15, 2013 |

Rainbow Pony Deluxe posted:yeah, so about that Soul King? Like, are those dudes just Nihlistic as gently caress or have they just been totally oblivious for 9000 years? Scratch that. If Isshin knew about it, then Urahara knows, Genryuusai knew, all the other captains knew, Aizen knew, and Ryuuken knew when Ichigo was still a kid. What's point of letting the world's biggest threat just hang out in Quincy Space until they were ready to destroy your world? Sorry, have you met anyone from Soul Society? If there's a dumb or dickish way to do something, that's the way it shall be done. Quincy King in a mystic 1000 year slumber? gently caress it, poo poo'll work itself out. Or we could kill a bunch of Quincy then forget about it. Yeah lets do that.

Serious Frolicking posted:But really, Renji can't replace the blades on his bankai but Mayuri can replace the baby, blade and poison parts on his at will. Considering that the primary example of a bankai being destroyed is Mayuri, this is nothing but a retcon. One the other hand, Mayuri is the only person who actually constructed their Bankai. Since his is already less an organic extension of his powers and more a Frankenstein, it's really not that unreasonable that it works differently than the others.

Serious Frolicking posted:If Yoruichi fights a quincy during this arc, then she would be better off not bringing her sword out at all. The time has come and gone. I don't really mind that SWORD MANGA: SWORDS GONE WILD has one less sword in it. It just seems odd that the matter never came up. Wasn't the whole point with the fake Bach that in order to steal a bankai the thief has to understand it's limits? If so, Yoruichi is probably the best choice to pull out her sword and yell bankai. At least the first time where she helpfully explains everything about her bankai to the Quincies she's fighting.

Emery posted:It always kind of pissed me off that Ichigo was standing right there while Momo got brutally attacked by pretty much everyone and only bothered to say "What are you guys doing?!" after the presumed killshot was made. I mean there's an argument to be made that Aizen made it so Ichigo's pleading didn't get through, but we didn't even really get a sign of that. It was just Ichigo standing there going "Maybe I should say something? Maybe this is part of the plan? Nah, I better say something". I imagine that in his head it was a lot like the joke by Louise C.K. about the guy on a bike.
