Throwback #58 - End of the Old Flame (SPOILERS!)

One of the most shocking deaths in Bleach was the fall of the old flame himself ~ Captain Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto. Falling to the hands of his own nemesis, Yhwach, Yamamoto was cut in half & burned alive nothing remained of him except ash. It was during this time and struggle that one by one the Shinigami were falling to the Quincy; any morsel of hope they had began to disappear the moment their leader got axed. With the death of Captain Yamamoto, the 8th division Captain & Lieutenant, Shunsui Kyoraku & Nanao Ise, were promoted to 1st Division. Vengeance stirs in the hearts of everyone, but Captain Yamamoto's death wasn't in vain as the Gotei 13 must now relentlessly polish their skills & talents to overcome an adversary that is even stronger than the Espada. Coping with his Death became a signal that the Quincy need to pay with their lives in order to fill in the void that Captain Yamamoto left behind. Their hearts may be shaken, but their resolve is untouched. This moment came as a shock to me since Captain Yamamoto is one badass old man, but he'll always be remembered in the hearts of the Soul Society and as one of my favorite Bleach characters (I'll make a top 10 favorite Bleach characters eventually).

I hope you enjoyed this week's Throwback. Look forward to Throwbacks every Friday. Until then, you all stay classy now. WBCR will be up momentarily and BCC #15 will be posted later since I have work til nighttime (latest is midnight).
