I really loved this chapter. And judging by the number of new people on this site (new accounts), a lot of other people did, as well. Gin's death -- yes, for now he's dead -- was so touching. He was just obsessively in love. Look it up on Wikipedia, it makes 'ya do strange stuff 0_0. It's the same feeling I had when Ulquiorra "died" (I still don't believe he's actually gone) but just a whole lot weaker. Aizenfly has become God, so unless Orihime shows up fifty times uberpowered and "rejects the implantation of the Hogyoku", I don't see Ichigo defeating Aizen, even with his new Getsuga or Hollowfication control. It's going to be interesting to see the reactions of Ichigo's friends, though. I'd especially like to see Keigo's reaction. Maybe he'll run to Ichigo in the heat of battle yelling "ICHI-GOOOOOO!!!" and make Ichigo stumble and fall and they'll both get killed. Seems unlikely.

On to the color pages, Ichigo's evolution is really awesome. In retrospect, although I've been complaining about him a lot, he's actually a really good protagonist. I'm going to clean the color pages (get rid of the friggin' letters) and make it a poster, for on my wall. He'll get a place in the middle of Ulquiorra's initial appearance and Ulquiorra with the dome of las Noches as a background.

Finally, Ichigo's appearance. The chain looked SO GOOD. Really gives me Bleach-vibes. I'm going to try to recreate Bleach-vibes with a microwave later. Anyways, it looked so good it actually made me forget about Aizen's overpoweredness and for just a second, make me believe he could actually defeat this bozo. NOT. He'll be killed for sure. Maybe we'll get Keigo or Mizuiro as the new main protagonist. RIP Ichigo Kurosaki, August 26 2010. Nonetheless, I believe Orihime will show up, reject the Hogyoku, reverting Aizen back to normal Aizenness, and Ichigo defeats him with his new-gained powers.
