[Bleach] I thought Chad was a tank character, but it seems that’s not the case. What role does he fit in the party?

262. Unblendable Look, you really noticed it, didn’t you!!

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx16

Was Bleach really the kind of thing where there were roles like tank or DPS?

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

>>1

I had the image that Orihime was the healer, Ichigo was the close-range attacker, and Ishida was the long-range attacker, but when I think about it, I’ve never seen these four fighting together as a team.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>9

In the first episode of the Millennium, the four of us fought together, but everyone was participating by throwing punches.

27: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

>>22

Tsuki Oni-kun is pretty much useless, so it’s easy to forget, but Orihime does have enough attacking power to easily take down hollows around here…

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

The role is probably Ichigo’s friend.

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx19

I don’t have it.

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx25

Even though he doesn’t have to fight, he’s a man who stakes his life because his friend is fighting, yet he’s treated so poorly.

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Black quota

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Even Askin, who had the last chance to protect Ichigo with Orihime, fell instantly—that’s terrible.

31: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>6

Well, there’s no way we can win.

37: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>31

I’m not saying to win, but I wanted it to feel like if the two of them hadn’t protected Ichigo, Yoruichi-san wouldn’t have made it in time.

It’s terrible that the protagonist’s friends rush to help but can do nothing and immediately lose.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a good friends circle.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

A category that can fight better than an ordinary person.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I had to say, it’s a tank and firepower, I guess.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is this person not active in original anime?

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

Somehow, it powers up for no reason.

14: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx13

>>12

Isn’t it too harsh to say it’s useless!?

13: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s strange that they came to the front lines instead of just protecting their friends in this world.

It’s not that strong, right?

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>13

I’m saying it’s because Ichigo is risking his life!

16: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

I have the image of hunting weaklings and then immediately facing someone pretty strong and getting beaten up badly.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not a waste because it hasn’t powered up in the first place.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

At best

It’s a mystery why someone with the power level of a weakling who can’t even use the Bankai of the Gotei Thirteen would try to step forward.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

I didn’t know there were Chad antis.

I really saw it for the first time.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

Without Chad, Ichigo becomes a punchline.

21: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx14

It was supposed to be.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because there were hardly any female fans.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Chad’s spiritual pressure disappears, we will know there is an enemy.

That’s right, it’s a radar.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a position like an attacker that has slightly diminished performance, but it’s included for now because there’s space available.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not fashionable like a tank or anything…

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, if you’re going to tank, you need status around that of Hinamori.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

Orihime, not to mention subservient officials, the giant hollows are tough as well.

Chad, most of the vice captains and above.

Ishida ranks around 5th to 6th in the work.

Ichigo is around 3rd place in the story.

30: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>29

Well, it’s impressive that they have that much firepower despite being a healer with exceptional defensive capabilities in the story.

49: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>29

I don’t really have that strong an image at all…

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>49

Basically, there’s no luck in matchups.

I’m always being made to fight opponents that are way above my level.

33: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

If it’s a human that Orihime can kill, it feels like the cutting shield can cut through anything.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since Bankai Renji is my training partner, I think a fair evaluation would be a bit above Bankai Baldy.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since Chan is in charge of mobility and destructive power, we can make Chad the defense role.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

But I really like securing an escape route since my friend is coming back.

48: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

>>36

I don’t dislike the descent that creates the way back, as it shines with a slightly dull silver.

I can’t believe it’s sane that my friend didn’t use that route at all on the way back.

51: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>48

It didn’t work.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

Did I win against someone?

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>38

Hoshashashashashashasha

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

Orihime may not be useful in attack, but she has that healing, so it’s fine for her to have a role until the end…

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since it was the final stage, there were no enemies left that seemed suitable for defeating Orihime Chadganju, so it can’t be helped…

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the final chapter, being 18 years old means that considering the Shinigami training spans decades, the strength is extraordinarily high.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even the Grim Reapers have a lot of useless ones, so there’s nothing to be done.

There are too many simple characters to process.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

Although the Rock Falcon and Stone Wave seemed like amazing techniques when I thought about them carefully, they were indeed something.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

Mr. Grimmjow is quite fortunate to have gotten a surprise attack to kill two members of the knight’s group.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>44

Moreover, it seems quicker to count from the top to see that both are strong contenders being fished out.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>44

In terms of kill count, that’s true, but… something like…

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Ayon were to appear as a resurrected monster, I think it would be fun to speculate that Chad might be able to defeat Noitora now as his final opponent.

50: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It feels like BLEACH has reached the peak of excitement with the reveal of new forms through Bankai and such.

Subsequent battles are either simple or lack any battle descriptions altogether.

52: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

People often say “the foreshadowing is amazing!” but in Bleach, there are a lot of instances where they create foreshadowing but don’t end up resolving it.

It’s because it’s a weekly manga, so it can’t be helped.

54: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Isn’t it thanks to Tsukishima-san?

It’s a person, right?

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since I have completely sealed off the Ten Blades and have been enhanced twice from there, I should be considered above a vice-captain who is only at the first release level.

Even so, they are no match for opponents with Espada or Holy Letters, which is no different from the vice captains.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a manga that you don’t need to read too deeply; it’s something that changes with the mood.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

The vice captain isn’t really that strong to begin with.

It feels like being above Earthling Z Warriors but below Saiyans is not worth mentioning.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

Why were there so many Quincy, but none of them let me defeat even one?

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the case of the vice-captain class, only those with cheat-like abilities or who can use Bankai appear in the latter part, so they really stand out less.

60: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

The strong vice-captain around Kira, who is bald and has the nickname 69, dies or gets rolled around without being of any help, just like in the final chapter.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>60

You can’t keep up with inflation unless you can at least use Bankai…

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>60

It’s not even half of the vice captain.

61: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

So just to confirm, it’s correct to think that the three former Espada who fell to the Fracción of Baragán are stronger, right?

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>61

Since Rudbornn, who is at the top among the Arrancar excluding Espadas, hints that he cannot win against Baron von Higes if he is in perfect condition, well…

64: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I think it’s clever in this manga to express the combination of the captain and vice-captain as “captain class.”

It’s a very versatile expression, making it super convenient and less prone to contradictions.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

From the pin to the stone, the vice-captain and captain are within.

Renji, become a captain quickly.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>66

I believe the era where one could become captain just by being strong ended after Kyōraku became the captain-commander.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

Chad can easily increase and decrease his spiritual pressure.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

If the rules haven’t changed, can I become captain through the recommendation of the captains?

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

In a world where battles are fought with swords, there’s no way a fist fighter could be strong.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>70

It’s okay to have at least one character like that.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

At the end of the final chapter, I thought they would become like a Kamen Rider and defeat at least one knight, but that didn’t happen.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like there was a guy who said something like, “My fist always causes explosions when it touches!”

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

It might be close to Piccolo.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>74

Is there no Piccolo level…?

About the size of a Tianjin rice omelet.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>79

If they could play at least as well as Tien Shinhan, even if they are not on the roster.

Somehow, both the Cell and Buu arcs have their moments of activity.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

Mr. Yoichi

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

The reveal that the right arm, which I had been using as my main weapon, was specialized for defense while the real deal was the attack-specialized left arm was really cool…

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

Basically, the matchup luck is too bad.

By the final chapter, even the captain is guaranteed to struggle, and there are only unfavorable enemies, so there’s no chance for them to take the stage.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

Looking back at how I dealt with Kyōraku, it seems so reckless.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>78

Ah, that would have been bad if it had hit directly.

It only made me say that the Soul Society arc still had some standards.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

At first glance, it looks like a tank, but it also needs to deal damage.

At first glance, it looks like an archer, but it also does melee and special attacks.

At first glance, they look like a swordsman, but they also engage in long-range attacks.

We will send it at such a party.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

Chad’s role is to protect his friends with his own body.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can’t believe someone as strong as Chad would get taken down! It was supposed to be a setup for him, though.

I think it’s a complete failure that Chad, who is so weak due to the same developments being overused, is getting defeated again!

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>82

Chad doesn’t have that strong of an image from the beginning…

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

Chad’s spiritual pressure… has disappeared!?

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

It feels like from the beginning it has been Chan-ichi > Uryu > Chad.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

At the beginning of the Arrancar arc, it seemed like Rukia could barely defeat even the Arrancar that she could instantaneously kill.

It was revealed that Chad is weaker than expected.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>88

It was about ten times stronger than Rukia had expected.

What’s up with that? Even if the vice-captain is strong, it’s unreasonable to be taken down by a weak Hollow.

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>88

That was because I was weakened right after being attacked by Yammy.

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

Chad feels like a romantic cannon from the beginning, doesn’t it?

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it that loser called D-Roy?

The reason Chad couldn’t even react was…

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s quite a hassle to deal with a level of strength that easily loses to the commanding officer, even though it’s the main party.

94: Japan Otaku Reviews

Back when I was defeating Hollows in the town, I felt reliable.

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a power with quite an ambiguous origin, so even if it’s stronger than the captain’s, it shouldn’t create any inconsistencies, I suppose…

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

I believe Chad’s strength is consistently on par with that of a vice-captain.

At the point when he overwhelmingly defeated three opponents, he was depicted at the level of a vice-captain.

After that, even though they were strengthened in the Arrancar Arc, the relative strength doesn’t change because there are more vice-captains who are practically at the captain level, like Kira and 69, who are bugged.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

Chad became capable of responding to Sonido starting from the Arrancar battle, so before that, he was probably at a lower level compared to those who could use Shunpo or Sonido for high-speed movement.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

Although Fullbringers have relatively cheat-like powers, Chad feels somewhat plain compared to them.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think the captain became far more popular than expected, and that must have made it difficult to handle.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that they probably had plans for characters like Orihime and Chad to be active in the story.

It was just that there wasn’t enough popularity to make him more active than the captain.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s okay to have true abilities that are even more incomprehensible, like Ishida and Inoue.

Aren’t there not enough elements to arrange for rejecting events or swapping events (or even more)?

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

There’s no value assigned to being used as a boss character.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder what it was that the “Complete Manifestation Technique” chapter was being compared to with the Chad chapter…

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t feel strong enough to be treated like a bait dog.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>104

That’s why they probably didn’t have a role in the final stages…

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I first became a filler, I was properly fulfilling my role as a filler…

The early Chad was really cool and a reliable character.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

It feels more like a measuring stick than a dog.

In terms of the thread picture, you can defeat the Espada that has fallen, but you can’t win against the 5th Espada who hasn’t even released.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

Regarding Noitra, it’s questionable whether Ichigo can win on his own.

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

Firepower inflation has progressed too far, and defensive characters’ worth will disappear after the Arrancar arc…

Even Ken-chan’s defense is lacking.

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because my strength is just slightly stronger than the estimated vice-captain, there are no enemies that match.

I can easily overpower half-hearted opponents 🍓, but against someone like the captain, I get instantly defeated.

Moreover, in many cases, they are in a place where the latter enemy appears.

111: Japan Otaku Reviews

If the anime has given a spotlight to the Zero Division, I believe it will also provide a spotlight for Chad, so I’m looking forward to the anime.

It might be next year…

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>111

I would be happier if you used the way back instead of a poorly executed showcase.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>112

Since the Bankai is broken, I have to go down immediately, so I can’t afford to take my time using that path…

Personally, I feel that I’d rather have that entire development removed and be taken to the Bach battle instead.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>112

Riruka is waiting too…

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

Chad had a really strong character vibe, but now that I think about it, I don’t particularly remember him being active in battles.

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>113

I’ve never fought an opponent where it was a decisive victory or an overwhelming defeat…

I do like the Chad-related episodes, but…

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>113

Until the SS chapter, they were a reliable ally, so that image remains, right?

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

The reader’s popularity was not such that they desired a deeper exploration, and there was also no attachment from the author to delve deeper regardless of the lack of popularity.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>118

Otter… seriously

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m really disappointed because it’s just a meme image right after awakening to true power.

Even if they say that if Chan could barely win against 6 opponents, there’s no way Chad could stand a chance against 5 opponents!

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

Until they suffered a crushing defeat against Kyoraku in the SS edition, weren’t they popular? Or not?

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>122

I think there was.

At that time, it felt understandable that we lost to Kyoraku because they were still a strong opponent.

In the SS arc, Ichigo and Ishida were almost evenly matched against captain-level opponents.

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

At first, they were treated like an amazing monster who could fight against the void even though their abilities were not awakened…

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kyōraku, Noitora, and Askin are just too tough of opponents.

125: Japan Otaku Reviews

Losing normally to Kyouraku and having his male popularity taken by Kenpachi due to being a tough, big character seems significant.

127: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can’t help but think it’s unreasonable that Rukia was stronger than Chad from the very beginning when I read it again.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews

I became a boxer, but since my high school days, I’ve been fighting battles that put my life on the line to the point where my spiritual pressure disappears. So even though I don’t use spiritual pressure, I wonder if a simple fistfight would turn into a mental battle.

129: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t know about the overall popularity, but at least in the original work, I wasn’t particularly interested in Ishida.

That’s an amazing way to fight, Vanilla!

130: Japan Otaku Reviews

Please don’t make me lose right after I received awakening…

131: Japan Otaku Reviews

BLEACH is quite strict when it comes to strength, isn’t it?

It’s rare for a situation to arise where you can miraculously defeat a stronger opponent.

136: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>131

I have an image that only Rukia activates the female protagonist boost.

132: Japan Otaku Reviews

Ishida’s final form was too strong, and with Mayuri’s initial Bankai, there was a lot of impact around that time.

133: Japan Otaku Reviews

The moment I was almost instantly killed by the Dilo, which is considered one of the weakest enemies, was probably the lowest point.

Isn’t the timing thanks to Tsukishima?

134: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t know why, but it feels like Chad often gets attacked by big, daunting opponents that he definitely couldn’t beat right after he wins.

135: Japan Otaku Reviews

But considering that Ichigo couldn’t defeat Chocolatte until he went into hollow form, I think Chad, who straight-up won against Afro, has at least a weak bankai.

137: Japan Otaku Reviews

Chad, even in his battered state after the battle with Grimmjow, was able to withstand or dodge Noitra’s attacks, so I think he might be slightly stronger than Chad at this time.

138: Japan Otaku Reviews

An anime that made me think it’s about as impactful as Gerald’s swing, with a name for the technique.

139: Japan Otaku Reviews

Chad is really a cool guy, yet he is not treated well at all.

140: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, I placed 18th in the popularity poll, so there was some level of reader popularity too.

141: Japan Otaku Reviews

I might just barely be able to win against Aroniro.

142: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s like the strength is severe, and normally in a situation where you would win, you don’t end up winning.

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

Chad has some faults as well.

144: Japan Otaku Reviews

The early days of Friend A feel more like a strong character.

145: Japan Otaku Reviews

Chad is the most human among all the characters.

146: Japan Otaku Reviews

Basically, the people in the present world are capable humans!

147: Japan Otaku Reviews

So, what is it?

Are you saying that there is a common flaw in the personalities of those grim reapers who have lived for hundreds of years?
