Bleach: Y U CONFUSE ME!? -Bleach 518-
So I believe it's been a week since the last Bleach chapter was released. Zero division arrived, Ichigo is told to go with them, & a certain someone from Hueco Mundo is on the other line. So the question remains: How was this week's chapter? Overall rating, Good, but confusing as shit. Allow me to explain some things: Ichigo's sword can't be fixed, but they can forge something that'll look like it. That's 1. Ichigo & the Zero Division use Kukaku's Cannon to go to the Spirit Palace. That's 2. And 3 - Kisuke Urahara & Ichigo talked. Those were the only things I got. And now here are the confusing things
1) A certain someone (probably Grimmjow) is in the background as Ichigo & Urahara were talking. If you see on one of the pages, you can see the person's sleeve rolled up - most likely Grimmjow.
2) Kukaku brings up Ganju to help out Ichigo by training with the......Fullbringers?
3) Kukaku states that if Ichigo didn't go with 0 Division, then the Gotei 13 would likely be gone even if it means disappointing "Uncle?" (Are Ichigo & Kukaku + Ganju related? Is this some sort of conspiracy relating to Kaien Shiba on why Ichigo looks like him?)
#2 is probably the most controversial because in the last arc (felt like a filler), Ginjo, Giriko, & Tsukishima were "buried." Giriko was cut in half by Kenpachi, Tsukishima succumbed to wounds inflicted by Byakuya, & Ginjo hopelessly lost to Ichigo. So why the F are they alive and helping out the Soul Society now? I think that there return could be forced (I hope not Kubo, I hope there's an explanation to this because I'm curious on how the dead could come back to life *snap* like that). #1 is the least controversial because a lot of people say its either Grimmjow or Isshin. Now the 3rd one, does this have to do with Ichigo looking like Kaien Shiba? If it is, then okay then, but I REALLY WISHED THAT THE SPIRIT KING WAS SHOWN IN THIS CHAPTER RATHER THAN WAITING FOR ANOTHER WEEK! DAMN IT! I mean it wasn't disappointing, but it was far from awesome. It's an "okay" chapter that leaves room for interpretation (Why Fullbringers? Why Grimmjow? Why "Uncle?"). So I give this chapter a C. Here's my new rating system:
A for Awesome/Ahhhhh Yeah!
B for Badass/Ballistic
C for Crazy/Confusing
D for Dang!/Da Fuq?

College Life + Updates
Well College Life has started and I've been pretty busy since then + I admit I do get a little lazy to write anything since I might not be as informative as other reviewers (I'm strictly writing down main points and adding my own personal beliefs/opinons on the chapter). For those who still keep up with my blog, I do apologize for not posting up anything new since the start of October. And as for the poll, there's been problems with my posting it on my wall for some reason.
Since then, Bleach has been getting interesting. Zero Division has revealed themselves and I was, to be honest, not at all impressed with the character designs. I thought they'd be more, ya'know, badass? Well, in the next chapter where they talked to the "Gotei," looks are to be deceiving and they aren't to be fucked with. Ichigo now is said to be tagging along with the Zero Division and a "certain someone" from Hueco Mundo is contacting him saying that everyone has assembled. That pretty much sums up this week's chapter (next week I'll try to cover it if I have the time). So what do I feel about the arc so far? Interesting considering we know nothing of Ichigo's mother and the arc looks as if it's going to go more into Urahara and Isshin's side. I want to know more about the Zero Division. The upsetting part is: If a character appears to have died, DON'T TRY TO BRING THEM BACK BECAUSE ITS ILLOGICAL! I mean Byakuya's sword shattered and he was fucked up and now you're telling me he's alive? BS! I'm sorry, but that type of logic makes no sense. Stay dead. He was a pretty kickass character, but I believe him being alive is just being forced (either on popularity or polls). Other than that, I am looking forward to Bleach every week.
