WBCR - Mother Nature got nothing on fabrics (Grade: B)

This chapter was relatively short since it can be summed up like this: Ichigo's gonna bring back Uryu & Sternritter "W," Nianzol Weizol may/may not be dead. At the beginning of the chapter, Team Ichigo w/the newly designed Ganju reminiscence about Uryu and how the last time they were all together as one was when they were rescuing Rukia. Ichigo's resolve to beat his friend senseless and bring him back is what drives him to not give up and to ultimately do away with the Wandenreich. Next, the chapter cuts to the Nianzol Weizol vs. Senjumaru Shutara fight where it almost seems as if Nianzol Weizol can deflect any attack from around his parameter, but when Senjumaru explains that she swiftly retailored Nianzol's clothes while he was killing off Senjumaru's henchmen. Nianzol is batsh*t scared at this moment, but as soon as he struggles to take it off, spikes began to pierce his entire body from within the retailored robes. Aaaaaaand.....that concludes the chapter. Honestly, this was such a short read and the only reasons why I gave this week's chapter a B is because I found Senjumaru's technique to be pretty creative since it goes against Nianzol's abilities to deflect attacks AROUND him rather than ON him, but the skeptical part of me says Nianzol may still be alive. He was just introduced a chapter ago and if the author is intentionally killing him off easily so that Senjumaru can fight Yhwach, then what a waste of the character. However, Nianzol's abilities are far from original so if it were true that he's indeed gone, then that might as well be the shortest fight next to Kenpachi vs. Giriko in the Fullbringer arc. Nianzol's characters is by all means....odd. He got two tongues and has the tendency to boast about his abilities + not finish his sentences properly. On the other hand, a part of me is curious to as to how Senjumaru and Yhwach know of one another. What's their history like? Was Senjumaru already part of Royal Guard when she first met Yhwach? This begs for an explanation (hopefully). Also, seeing Team Ichigo blasting off in the cannon is reminiscent of their first time together as a whole....it felt very refreshing and a symbol that through good & bad times, they all got each other's backs. I still stand by my decision ~ Chapter's a B.

I hope you enjoyed this week's WBCR. Look forward to WBCRs whenever chapter is available. Until then, you all stay classy now. The BCC Round will be posted later (latest by midnight) because of work. Throwback is posted below.
