[Bleach] Isn’t it strange that it’s the second stage of sword release instead of the second stage of returning the blade?

1: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s the same.

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx51

It can’t be helped.

This guy is the only one that’s completely weird.

3: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not caused by the Hollow fragment, this guy and Stark.

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

Is this guy really empty?

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>4

This guy doesn’t have a mouth.

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

It must be empty.

It’s probably not a human spirit.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

By the way, did this guy return to being sharp?

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>6

It turned into a Black Winged Great Demon! For some reason, after that, this guy just keeps transforming in a strange way.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>7

No, it’s not a return to the blade; it will unlock with a sword release as well.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

All the characters are like bug-like guys.

11: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx13

>>8

In Vastroad, something seems off, and I can’t tell what the standard is.

It might be that standard Vastrode didn’t exist from the beginning…

10: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

The origin as a great void is somewhat strange, or rather, it was like being an outlier within the clan.

12: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Even though I set up my master as a magician, they are reluctant to explain.

On top of that, a lot of exceptional characters appear.

14: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

>>12

Isn’t it on the level where there are only exceptions for main characters?

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

It’s quite surprising that Halibel, with her background and personality, is part of the Espada, isn’t it?

15: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx19

To begin with, even being called a clan of the void feels strange, so when I’m told there are heretics within the clan, I just find it confusing.

16: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Considering that Arolinero is Gillian after eating that much, to be honest, cannibalism isn’t a condition for evolution.

21: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>16

Gillian Menos → Adjucas → Vasto Lorde, there might be a growth limit at the point of a Hollow or the soul in its previous life, something that the reminiscing Shaulon mentioned.

22: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>21

The subordinates of GJ were eating a lot together with GJ, except for the worthless Diloi, but since everyone else isn’t growing at all, they have entrusted the evolution to GJ, who seems to have potential for growth, and gave up.

18: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

Isn’t returning the blade the same as releasing the sword?

19: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Baragan may be considered a typical Vastorde because there’s nothing strange about him.

32: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>19

Baraggan has a naturally king-like description, Stark is what he is, Halibel hasn’t eaten anyone, Wonderweiss is influenced by Aizen, and can Azjucas really become a Vastorde?

42: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>32

Grimmjow-kun worked hard in his training and became an Ajucas as strong as Vastrode.

…Well, the cannibalism system stopped because I became a Hollow.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

Things above 4 are gathering too much extreme emptiness.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

Did Harribel really have such abnormal abilities?

24: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>23

It’s a strength that is hard to understand in the work, but since it’s almost the same as its current form before becoming a hollow, it still feels strange.

38: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>24

Vastorode is characterized by its humanoid form, so that is rather proper evidence of being a Vastorode.

Stark and Baragan are pretty much the same as before.

46: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>38

I don’t think Stark (Lilynette) appears before becoming an Arrancar in the story, right?

Because they are splitting and becoming Arrancar on their own.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>46

Hollows that can remove their own masks (there used to be a lot of them).

and

The method of transforming into a Hollow with the Hōgyoku, using one’s own power infused into the Zanpakutō, is different.

Stark has almost no mask part by himself and at the point where he has a zanpakuto, he has also undergone Aizen’s method.

28: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>23

It wasn’t that he became a Vastorode by eating insects instead of each other.

25: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

The return blade is about unleashing the true power of the void sealed in the shape of a sword, so it seems strange to take it to another level from there!

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

What’s the difference between return to blade and sword release?

29: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>26

I think it’s the same, but I believe only the Espada class was saying “Resurrección”.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

But it seems that the sword release 2nd layer can be used even in GJJJ.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

If it’s Ichigo’s rival, this kind of exception is fine.

31: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

If it’s the same as Bankai, then I accept…?

33: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Stark, since the time he developed his ego, was unable to bear his loneliness and attempted to take his own life, which is when Lilynette was born.

Baraggan has lived so long that he is familiar with the first Hollow that was born during the creation of the three worlds.

Harribel has had a strong aversion to consuming others since the time of Gillian, repeatedly licking and spitting them out, taking far longer than others to reach Vastolorde.

Ulquiorra, a primitive organism without a soul living in the Hueco Mundo, died after touching a fragment of the Soul King and became a hollow. It is the first organism to become a hollow in Hueco Mundo, not in the real world.

Grimmjow, the hard-working and growing Espada.

39: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx13

>>33

Shirasun…

48: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>39

Well, it wasn’t obvious that they were a fake family.

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

>>33

I want you to lick me too.

34: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

It seems that strong guys are always strong to begin with, whether they’re Death Gods or Hollows.

36: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>34

In this world, talent is everything.

35: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

The second resurrection is said to be possible not only for Ulquiorra but also for other Espada, so I think it’s fine to simply equate sword release with resurrection.

37: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

It seems that Grimmjow was still only an Arrancar of the Vasto Lorde level.

I mean, once you become a Hollow, rank doesn’t really matter much, does it?

By just training, you can become somewhat stronger.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the time of the Void, Baragán had a little bone exposed, right?

44: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>40

Lord Baragan, my aging is really affecting me, so I think I probably had muscle when I was younger.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

Noitra would definitely feel despair…

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>41

It’s just a little tough, that’s all…

45: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

Ulquiorra was really cool.

I still really like it.

55: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx16

>>45

I like your comments, they sound like those of an elementary school student.

That’s nice…

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that Harribel would lick if asked.

50: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It seems that there are quite a few people who are thankful to indigo dyeing for laying down some laws, as it means they no longer have to fear degeneration or resort to cannibalism, making one wonder just how hellish it was.

57: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>50

In this age of decline, where it’s always eat or be eaten, if you don’t eat, you deteriorate and it’s the end. Why can you, Lord Halibel, only become a Vasto Lorde with insects?

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>57

Miss Harribel is kind.

61: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>57

I really think it’s terrible that all the guys from Vastrode don’t seem to be the evolved type.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>51

I must protect…

54: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

I have the desire to see the complete Stark (complete Ririnet).

56: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Grimmjow still says to Neliel, “You were lower than me back when you were a 5, right?”

It’s funny how you’re getting all flustered because of the numbers…

58: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

It’s funny that the insect eating Halibel seems to be something that can also eat Shinigami.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

Speaking of which, Nel is from the generation of Espadas before Aizen discarded them, so she doesn’t have as much of a sense of aversion towards Aizen.

65: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>60

I wonder when Neliel’s Espada era takes place chronologically…

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>65

I’m vague about this area.

62: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

Unfamiliar information keeps emerging.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

The fact that the Soul Society is the best it can get is terrible in that world.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>63

It is a good place (partly).

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

This guy and Chan’s inflation battle is the most nonsensical.

69: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

>>64

Unfathomable power (the person themselves doesn’t understand it) vs unfathomable power (probably the person themselves doesn’t understand it much either).

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>69

Of course, the reader is left wondering what is happening and what led to this.

66: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Whether or not you can become a Vastordé is decided before you become hollow.

And unlike us, Grimmjow can become a Vasto Lorde—am I wrong?

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>66

I like how it’s all being forgotten, yet it’s emotional that I’m still doing it for my subordinates.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

After seeing their bodies once the masks are removed, I can’t help but think that Pesce and Doppio seem to have not evolved, right?

Is that just pretending to be a weakling on purpose?

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have a Hollowfication process and a zanpakutō, so I am part of Aizen’s regime, after all.

Years ago, it is uncertain about Neliel.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because it’s the time when Zaeruaporo has fallen to the Ten Blades… No, when is that?

73: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

Although it’s called a “setting wizard,” I think there are a lot of things that are thought up on the spot.

74: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>73

The worst is 69’s 69.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>73

That’s called a setting mage.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>78

Yude is going to become a setting wizard!

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

Rokuguruma Ninth Squad…

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

I somehow thought that the flow of time in the Soul Society and the living world was different in the virtual realm.

77: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

It’s nice how there are so many exceptions that you can’t even tell which one is the general case.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

Indigo dyeing has been dominating the virtual realm for quite some time.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>79

It seems that indigo dyeing has been dominating the Void Sphere for at least a hundred years…

Rather, it’s surprising that the Soul Society didn’t catch on…

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

Ichigo’s Hollowification isn’t a sword skill either, so it might be related to that aspect.

81: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

There are too many abnormal individuals among the higher ranks of Shinigami, Hollows, and Quincy.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>81

The grim reaper, just strong, shines boldly.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

Baragan is the god of the Hueco Mundo, and Stark and Ulquiorra were born as Vastolorde?

Halibel doesn’t eat much due to her personality and beliefs, yet she becomes infinitely stronger and gets promoted.

Those who can become Vastorodes are somehow unusual.

85: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Ulquiorra doesn’t even eat because he doesn’t have a mouth in the first place.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

Thanks to being transformed into a Hollow, some have become stronger or found friends, regardless.

What kind of motivation does Ulquiorra have to be loyal to Aizen?

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

What Aizome was doing was one thing, but there are many people who can be saved by the Hollowification of the Espada, so I hope more research is done on it.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews

Ulquiorra may have had a natural obedient style of following those stronger than himself.

For that reason, I was surprisingly casual with Zero’s Yami.

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>90

That’s why it might have been so easygoing.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>90

You just joke around with your close friends, right?

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

Yammy and Ulquiorra are getting along a bit too well, aren’t they?

94: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

In the first place, why are those guys so close?

What kind of connection did you have?

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was expelled from my clan, but Aizome-sama accepted me! That might be my motivation.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>95

But the second liberation was kept a secret.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

At the point of a normal release, Chanichi couldn’t do anything, and from there it became a thread image, but after getting beaten by complete hollowification… it’s really hard to understand the strength.

99: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

>>96

At this time, Ichigo is fighting while being afraid of the unknown nature of his power, pushing the brakes on himself.

The strength that exists while one is conscious is nothing to be trusted.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>99

That is the battle after Ulquiorra was defeated.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if Lord Baraggan was destined to self-destruct on his own someday, even without being defeated like in the main story.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>97

It seems that it used to be really strong, but it’s apparently affected by the power of aging, becoming weaker and more of a nuisance over time.

I wonder if someday I will become even inferior to the emptiness around me.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

If the other members of the Espada fought against the Knights, the Knights would probably win, but the only ones left standing might be the Elite Guard.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

I saw an illustration of what seems to be an evolved form of Desgarrón from a game that collaborated with something in the past.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

People often say I’m hitting the brakes, but it’s not that I’m actually applying the brakes; it’s just my current limit.

111: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>105

In the early part of the Arrancar arc, there were obvious brakes being applied, but after entering Hueco Mundo, it was simply at its limit.

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it’s a mode where I got even more serious within my brother’s white emperor sword-like bankai.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

Why are you going out of your way to seal your power in a sword?

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>107

It might be that, as it is, the power as a void is too strong to transcend the boundaries of being a living organism.

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>107

The virtual self has an ecology like a deflated balloon that can grow bigger when air is added, but if nothing is done, it deflates. So, I transferred air from an oxygen tank to fix it, but it broke.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

I missed joining the fan club in the past few years, but do you know what the thread image is?

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>108

It seems that even Grimmjow can become second if he tries hard.

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>108

I don’t understand.

The second tier has potential for everyone, so that means Ulquiorra is the most evolved Arrancar.

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it the Break Soul’s Ouken Fusion version?

Is it the Break Soul's Ouken Fusion version? It's not the second stage and it's not a master design (I got approval for supervision), so it's not really a critique, but it's a nice design.

It’s not the second stage and it’s not a master design (I got approval for supervision), so it’s not really a critique, but it’s a nice design.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not so much that I was expelled…

https://shonenjumpplus.com/episode/10834108156632388773

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

When becoming a Hollow, the power is sealed in the Zanpakutō and then returned to the body, which is why it’s called a “returning blade.” Therefore, I think the second release involves a different kind of power mixed with the sword that has been unleashed.

It’s a world full of mixtures.

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>113

It seems that the Bankai reflects the grown abilities of the zanpakuto, so I think that the second release may also reflect the grown powers of the Hollow for the same reason.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder what that strange white spike that seemed to trigger Ulquiorra’s arrancar transformation was.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

Baraggan is not a god, but he is deified to the extent that a religion has arisen.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like being close with Yami.

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

The fact that they just regained their original powers that were sealed and are acting like they’re in a powered-up form is what was strange, to begin with.

Isn’t the second tier equivalent to Bankai?

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

According to the nameless, the old Baragan was at a level where he could use even Vasto Lorde hollows with just his jaw, so it is clear that he was stronger back then.

125: Japan Otaku Reviews

Ulikeola has a fallen angel motif, huh…

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

Ulquiorra Schiffer seems like an anagram of Lucifer.
