Another Bleach chapter is out, so let's talk about it!
Spoilers after the cut.
So it's a short one this week.
It can be thus be condensed into two points:
1.) Ichigo & co. are ready to fight Bach/Yhwach/whatever you want to call him.
2.) Urahara is ready to send the captains of the Gotei 13 into Reioukyuu.
Obviously, we've been waiting for the first to happen for a while now. It's taken many chapters just to get to this point, thanks to Giselle and the fight between the elite Stern Ritter and the Royal Guard.
The second still doesn't make much sense to me.
We know that Bach is the main villain to be taken out. And given what he and Hyousube say in the chapter, it's not likely that Ichigo will be able to beat him.
But given Bach's extremely broken ability, what chance do the Gotei 13 have? They got their collective ass kicked by the Stern Ritter (not even the elites, mind you).
Also, there's the twin threat of Ishida and Haschwald to deal with, plus whichever elite Stern Ritter are left. So maybe the Gotei 13 will be taking them on?
Even though the story seems to be consolidating itself, it's still difficult to figure how it'll get where it needs to go to complete the manga in a satisfying way.
