Blake Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 And the shoe finally drops. :'D I really liked this chapter, thought. Maybe it's because the comedy doesn't seem terribly our of place and that we get to see Isshin and Ikumi again. EDIT: Interesting point I just realized, but Masaki's maiden name was Kurosaki. So what's Isshin hiding in this regard...?Calling it again, Aizen is Ichigo's uncle and Isshin is his brother. I said this half-jokingly ages ago, I'll say it again.

Fusion X. Denver Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Naruto took his mother's name, and while he's not the main character, Ace took his mother's name as well. Is there a thing about main characters taking their mother's name because of how important the father is?...might as well become its own trope at this point >.> Aizen being related to Ichigo makes sense. Isshin's buddies with Urahara, who was exiled from Soul Society because of Aizen, so it's possible Isshin suffered a similar fate and had to go incognito.

Blake Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Aizen and Isshin also have some interesting interactions, especially with the fact that Aizen apparently had tab on Ichigo from birth. Maybe all of Soul Society did, but it always felt like more than that to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lt. Colonel Remo Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Alternatively, Ichigo's real name is Gol D. Ichigo, and they were trying to keep it hidden from Fleet Admiral Yamamoto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 This series should have ended after season 16 of the anime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Roxas Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Just because the anime ended with the Fullbringer arc doesn't mean the manga had to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synchronized Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 If I'm right, there's speculation that the Anime will indeed continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Ending at the Fullbringer arc would have left several loose ends that desperately needed to be tied up, such as the past of Ichigo's family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zextra Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Hmm...it was surprising to me. Only question is what was his relationship? I'm glad we're finally getting some backstory on him, though - it's long past overdue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a little surprised but something in the back of my mind is trying to connect this new info with something we learned a long time ago. I just can't figure out what it is. And agree, and this actually seems interesting, so yay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kakashi Hatake Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 http://www.mangapanda.com/bleach/529 Why does him being related to the Shiba sound like a missing piece of info from something we were told long ago?Ichigo Kurosaki looked a lot like Kaien Shiba who is likely related to Isshin Shiba as a member of the same family. That also means that Ichigo is related to Kaien, Ganju, and Kukaku. It also means, that since Isshin was the family Head of the Shiba family, Ichigo is like a lost heir or something.

Fusion X. Denver Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 ...I feel like that should have been obvious since Isshin and Ganju look alike, plus last week's reveal of taking Kurosaki as a name could open the possibility of Isshin being related to Kaien.And of course Aizen's involved.The bit with Toshiro made me laugh considering how things turned out, so I'd say decent chapter this time around.

bury the year Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Now everyone can ship Matsumoto/Isshin. And I kinda hate myself for not picking up on the Shiba thing earlier, but I don't because I still think it's a bit ridiculous. EDIT: Could Kubo be hinting now that Isshin's a Vizard too? Rushing off to Karakura Town at the same time as Aizen's "experiments" doesn't bode well... EDIT 2: Courtesy of TvTropes:Foreshadowing: Isshin once lamented how it's rare for Ryuken to call him "Kurosaki." When he married Masaki, Isshin discarded his last name, Shiba, and took on his wife's family name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 WellIt's not that ridiculous, is it?I mean, they all behave alike, look alike, plus it also ties in with Urahara's relationship with Isshin with Kyoraku. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2 reasons are she was born like that and/or Kubo wanted to make her one. Not sure what other reasons their would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think so? The personality thing I can kinda see - Isshin has Kukaku's vitriol - but tbqh I didn't see physical resemblance at all until the flashback. Plus, Isshin's name breaks the Shiba sibling naming pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
