User blog comment:Xilinoc/Ch. 563 - SUPERSTAR NEVER DIE/@comment-14244059-20131226202839

Well, now I theorize that James is the embodiment of the The Superstar and acts as an nega-Kryptonite for Mask; rather than weaken him, it powers him up. And this is why James will will not die.

Anyways, I found this chapter to be, uh... interesting to say the least. I reiterate a statement I made somewhere on the last blog that you have to take Mask and everything he does with a grain of salt. Suspend your disbelief, don't take him too seriously and laugh at how flat-out goofy he is.

Can't wait to see Renji's improved Bankai. Between the change it went through after the time-skip and what Oetsu did to it, hopefully it's taken on a very badass design and will dish out some serious damage.

Also, is it just me or did Mask catch James up in that Star Nova attack? I'm not one hundred sure that's what happened, they just be staring at the attack. Who knows. Guess we'll see after the break.
