A new chapter of Bleach is out, so let's talk about it.
Spoilers and ever-changing attributes after the cut.
As a Bleach fan, I'm used to reading ridiculous things on a week-to-week basis. Sometimes they are more ridiculous than others, but there is a baseline of general weirdness, or maybe an area that the manga occupies in terms of how certain things are expressed.
Then you get chapters like 663 and even a jaded veteran (since 2007; not the beginning, but a while ago nonetheless) like myself has to tip his cap to the author for being so absurd.
Author avatar Urahara Kisuke has entered the battle between Yoruichi and elite Stern Ritter Nakk le Varr, transforming Yoruichi in the process. She changed into her new form which is an extension of her previous cat body in the previous chapter. Here she attacks Nakk le Varr and Urahara drops the first bomb of incredible foolishness.
He claims that Yoruichi's reiatsu changes 48 times per second in her new form.
I'm not sure how this is possible and Urahara's explanation does not resolve the quandary satisfactorily. No surprise there; Urahara is a troll and as a rule I tend not to believe anything he says.
After Urahara plays with Yoruichi and lets her fall asleep on his lap, another ridiculous thing occurs: Nakk le Varr activates his Quincy Vollstandig, "Hassein".
His appearance is laughable.
Also, since he's still among the living, Urahara will have to resort to more dirty tricks, likely without Yoruichi as it appears that her five-minute limit has come to an end.
