Preparations are nearly complete as Kisule Urahara prepares a gateway into the Royal Palace. He is going to need all the help he can get, but at the same time feels doubt that the plan for survival may be minuscule. Of course, the Captains are taken back by this (Sui-Feng & Kenpachi notably), but they do not care because in this situation ~ it's a life/death battle ~ aka a War. Hiyori & the rest of Visored are suiting up as well ~ it's time for old grudges to be forgotten as they all prepare for what's coming to them. Meanwhile, Ichigo, Ganju, Orihime, Chad, & Yoruichi confront Yhwach who, with most evil villains, have foreseen that he is to do battle with the main protagonist. However, Ichigo bodies reacts to the sword that impaled the Soul King. The supposed "Quincy" blood inside him unsheathe the blade and supposedly dealt the final blow on the Soul King. In other words ~ Ichigo's Quincy Half brought upon the destruction of the Soul Society. Yhwach knew of this whereas his friends are all like "WTF?" And that pretty much sums the chapter. I am curious to know why all of a sudden Ichigo's "Quincy" blood now manipulates him and also, why Yhwach waited for Ichigo to deal the final blow? I think perhaps it had to do with the whole: "He did it" scenario in which Yhwach merely is a collaborator on the Soul King's demise. I wonder if the War will ever pick up and whether or not, again, certain characters will come back (*cough* Arrancars & Xcution). For now, it's merely more set-up and more monologues. I give this week's Grade a: C. Not great, but it's set-up so it's passable.
So what did you think of this week's Chapter? Good? Bad? Somewhere in between? Comment below and let me know. As always, look forward to WBCRs whenever chapter's out AND when I have the time to post. Until then and as always, you all stay classy now.
