WBCR - Dem Familiar Faces (Grade: B)

Remember in the last Bleach chapter where we finally see the return of fan-favorite Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez? What if I told you that we also see the return of Nelliel, Riruka, & Yukio. Yeah, it was nice to see A LOT of familiar faces and also refreshing to see Nelliel pounce on Ichigo with her BEEWBZ. The chapter starts out with what appears Grimmjow wanting to start something, but of course Nelliel, Riruka, & Yukio appear in order to halt any more confrontation. Orihime is also kind of flustered to see Nelliel show so much affection to Ichigo (Kawaii af). Yoruichi, for the most part, informs Ichigo of what's been going on and comedically states that he's the last to know. Their is this area known as the Valley of Screams (made up of ejected souls) that the entire space is known as the Garganta. It's unclear on how the Valley of Screams is able to sustain reishi dimensions, but this is where Riruka & Yukio come into the play. Yukio's ability to manipulate space and Riruka's ability to insert and remove objects play a very pivotal role in stepping into the enemy's territory without having to expel any reiatsu. Meanwhile, Uryu ponders about Yhwach's position to date and we get a glimpse of just how monstrous he's gotten ~ a man who has fused with the Soul King. This concludes the chapter. Overall, I was just in awe when I saw the return of Grimmjow & Nelliel. Riruka & Yukio's involvement makes sense, but I never thought I'd see them again. It's clear now that Riruka, Yukio, Ginjo, Tsukishima, & Giriko will partake in the war, but what of Jackie? Will she or is she too weak because she lost her powers? Will Grimmjow be a team-player or will his bout with Ichigo interfere? Can Yhwach be stopped? Does Uryu regret his defection? All this needs answering. Just in seeing Grimmjow & Nelliel in this chapter, I'm giving it a solid B.

So what did you think of this week's chapter? Good? Bad? Somewhere in the middle? Comment below and let me know. As always, look forward to WBCRs whenever chapter's available and when I have the time to post. Until then, you all stay classy. Legacy is posted below.
