First he said the last page then clarified and tac'd on second to last and last.

we got the introduction of a "new" character who has in his possession mutilple zanpakto's(which renji and ichigo didnt even know they were) which could be the result of his own zanpakto splitting or him obtaining other's zanpakto either way its pretty interesting. further to this point its probable that its not a coincidence all of the are female.

point is the lead up of what you deem as useless was what actually made the chapter good....in my opinion of course

it will be shown as flashback whenever kenpachi has his next fight

Useless chapter =/= filler. Filler refers specifically to anime episodes that have nothing to do with the manga in order to 'fill' the time needed to let the manga's story get ahead. There are no fillers in the manga, even though some of them feel like it, like the entire fullbring arc. That was just stupid. Canon, but stupid. And I actually think that last chapter was Kubo's first bad chapter in a while. For the most part, this arc has been compelling and filled with action.

Well no the fullbringer arc wasn't dumb it's going to play a key part in this arc as we can see there all back. ^^

To me fullbringer arc was a giant Omake and a sign

Kubo is telling us that mangas now going to get progressively worse

The fullbringers were by far the worst, and I mean worst set of characters that Kubo has introduced. I would rather see an arc based around Nel's arrancar friends than that garbage.



Since the fullbring arc, it's been way better though. We actually had a couple major deaths and there are some very major developments.

Does anyone else find it absolutely weird that Ichigo hasn't even acknowledged the fact that he used a Quincy ability? Are we seriously supposed to be satisfied with that whole situation after 1 panel? I know Bleach doesn't explain all of the details purposely, but that's one that simply can't go unexplained.

my guess is he is juha's grandson and his mom was juha daughter

can someone link me to the manga where the anime ends at?
i would like to continue
