- Two of the many funny highlights:

"Wait there's a page about blanks" "Don't be like that Sun" "Bend permit?????" "Bent pyramid don't let her Irish fool you!"

- Isn't Nimaiya black? I didn't hear him mentioned lol. xD

- Juha/Aizen Op or to not Op.

Now that the deal with Aizen is over I can't really think of him or label him as Op, his power was broken yes but after Gin his power was nerfed slightly. I think of Aizen as a very meticulous intelligent planner who utilized his Zanpaktou's shikai to it's fullest extent and combined it with his intelligence. Aizen hardly fought anyone straightforward with pure swordsmanship and/or kido (ex. Kenpachi/Yama) without the help of Kyōka Suigetsu and when he then discarded his Zanpaktou (and his intelligence) after obtaining the Hogyoku thus becoming a: overconfident reckless zealot thinking he was invincible he got curb stomped by Ichigo and sealed by Urahara. The reason I say he discarded his intelligence is because he didn't even know during the fight the damage caused by the surroundings was coming from Ichigo's power and not his own. He just became blind with power from the Hogyoku and became unlike the Aizen we witnessed up to that point. In that regard the Hogyoku made him the opposite of Op he became weaker in my opinion. Now Juha is interesting and I do consider him op and I have no problem with it. He's supposedly the last villain of the arc and Ichigo deserves to have an opponent like that where we're suppose to wonder how in the hell is he suppose to beat this guy. We know Ichigo is going to beat him that's no surprise so it's important to have him fight someone so incredibly broken (so far). To compare this to a video game final boss (rpg game to be exact) we want a op boss that's satisfyingly hard to beat that induces some rage quit and wonder how to beat it (ex. ??????? HP, insane healing, insane damage, resistant to 99% of your tools, spells, and can wipe your whole party out in an instant). If Juju was less Op to beat I'm sure more people would be like "well hell's he's no Aizen bleach should've ended with Aizen cause nobody can compare to him" we experienced that in Fullbring arc with an average villian. It would be anticlimatic to know Ichigo is gonna defeat Juju and how he would do it without thinking about it. Now Juju could've been more Op than he's been portrayed. He's had some chinks in his opness. First of all although he hadn't been using his full power until now, his ass knew not to confront Yamamoto upfront. He had to use that (sacrifice) doppelganger to steal his bankai and wipe him out with it. So him and Aizen knew not to fuck with Yamamoto directly. Now if he had rolled up on Yamamoto using the powers of "A" and destroyed him and nerfed his fire/bankai like he nerfed Ichibei then I would be like okay he's way too fucking op for Ichigo to beat. A guy that kills the head captain and the captain of the royal guard without using no gimmicks or trickery but using his power of "A" alone.

- Interlude about Ichibei

If Ichibei is really dead I would be really surprised. You usually don't see such a hyped character for several chapters get destroyed that easily in a graphic manner. I personally think he pulled a Sai and used an ink clone. He may be defeated but not get eviscerated like chop liver.

- Back to Juju/Brief note on Aushwalen

Juju also didn't want to take on Oetsu his ass hurried up and was like fuck you all down on the battlefield I need my elite guards who got taken out in the blink of an eye back to life. Oetsu wasn't using no special techniques just good swordplay with an op sword. There was no powers for him to explain than if you got cut by him wielding that sword you were fucked and Juju didn't want none of that or risk wanting any of it. I went back to chapter 544 to see the woman Jugram was with and saw the comment Juju gave to Uryuu that he was the only quincy to survive the Aushwalen which really isn't special now since Bazz B and the cheerleaders survived from getting nuked by it as well.

- Shikai/Bankai

In relation to Aizen, Ichibei and other characters using their Shikai's and Bankai's you can really see characters who rely or master their shikai it can operate almost effectively if not more effective than those who rush to bankai once they see their shikai isn't working.

Shunsui and Ukitake - They both fight effectively with their shikai's really keeping to their notion bankai's are shinigami's secret weapons.

Byakuya - In this arc refines his shikai so good that in the semi rematch with As, As think's he's using bankai.

Ichibei - As yall said combined all three (sealed, shikai, bankai) forms of his sword in perfection and unison

Aizen - Relied solely on shikai to complete his scheming.

Ikkaku and Soi Fon are like the exceptions that come to mind with being they just don't like using their bankai's.

- Random topic

I don't mind Ichigo being the way he is and how he treats his enimies and how he's eventually gonna confront Uryuuu. He's no different than the other two major shonen heroes Naruto and Goku. Naruto and his talk no jutsu of talking most enemies out of their ways (ex. Pain when he leveled the whole village and Naruto talks him to reviving everyone) Goku is even worse, Frieza annihilates a peaceful race, tries to kill his son, kills his helpless rival, almost kills his friend, then kills his best friend from childhood, and still shows mercy to him (ex. telling him to get down just before getting split into by his own destructo disk ala ichigo telling the cheerleader to dodge his x getssuga, then frieza begs for mercy and goku shares his energy with him, Frieza then tries to kill goku with the energy he gave him, then Goku blasts him but not enough to kill him still which he survives). I forgot the official stat but Goku hardly killed anyone either if I remember correctly only two characters.

- Summary

Juha deserving op for a villain of a final arc.

Pre-hogyoku Aizen was insanely ingenious but not op

Emphasis on shikai is prevalent in final chapter as well as bankai

As op Juha is he could've been a lot worse

Don't think Ichibei is dead quite yet.

Oh yeah you guys should give a brief comment and nod to Ichibei's Futen-Taisatsuryou technique in the next pc :p
