Bleach is was a manga published in Weekly Shounen Jump. It was pretty good at first and then it got incredibly bad. Recently it was cancelled for being a piece of poo poo that never went anywhere for years on end. Chapter 686 was the final chapter, and it resolved nothing.


Ghosts are silly and Kubo Tite is a hack. So, have at it.

I should really just
learn to stop talking.
Nah, last chapter was ok. I mean, it had Aizen essentially ruling over all as soul king. Or well, I guess that's how that went.

I still have no idea what happened in the final chapter, outside of the Karakura parts.

Why does Chad look like Aizen x Shunsui now that he's a boxer?

Sprite141, I'm sorry to tell you, but you're under the effects of Kyoka Suigetsu. That's the only way I can imagine the ending you must have read.

Worthwhile things Chad did the entire manga = 0

Maybe he can cross over with Hajime No Ippo and get murdered by the Dempsey Roll, for old times sake

It sure did end.

It's not the worst ending I've ever seen.

But after everything that happened, I'm not left satisfied.

Do you think that pregnancy tease Matsui did for Assassination Classroom's ending was him mocking Naruto, which has turned into him pre-emptively mocking Bleach?

I can't wait for Gintama's ending, in which Gintoki will have impregnated every female character and also Katsura and Takasugi

I'm glad Bleach is dead, and hope it doesn't haunt Shonen Jump, cursing other series to have unnecessary antagonists and weird tonal and genre shifts that ultimately are for the worse

Is the reason all these shounen manga seem to end in pregnancy some subliminal attempt to get the declining birth rate up?

gently caress YOU, i was about to keep watching that episode and just checked bleach since that has nothing to do.

anyway, the ending was a mild fart, which is the best Bleach has achieved in ages. It's just an ending, uninspired and everything but it ended things and didn't waste our time with a hundred pages to give every stupid bozo in this show a page. It's a weaker copy/paste of Naruto's ending for sure.

it is a very easy way to show that time passed. also, you don't have to develop relationships if you make characters get together solely via timeskip.

The real Pokemon begins here
Remember the Soul Society arc? When it was just Ichigo and friends doing cool poo poo and posing while fighting a bunch of enemies with understandable abilities?

Then nearly every single former enemy became a protagonist, enemies had powers like "I literally can't be hurt" and nothing interesting happened again :negative:

It's a pretty standard trope for anything ending with an epilogue, it just feels especially hollow for most any shonen fight series that never bothered to include actual romance or relationship building to throw in an "oh by the way these two random people had a kid" and expect anyone to care.

hey, many of us were stupid children when we read that. how were we supposed to know that all the stuff that kubo made seem really significant was just meaningless fluff?

The worst thing Bleach ever did was prevent Luffy from entering Smash Flash 2 for several years until he was finally announced last weekend

Otherwise it was just a passing fart in the wind and I'm glad it lost popularity quickly

Chad wanted to only use his fist to protect but became a boxer.

Ishida was glad to be part of Ichigo's group but is completely alone in the ending.

Orihime wanted to be a robot but is a housewife that can't cook.
