WOULD YOU GUYS QUIT SAYINT THAT THEIR QUINCIES!? THEY'RE OBVIOUSLY NOT! Jeez...

 

How are they "obviously" not Quncies? They're outfits are reminiscent of Quincies, "Vandenreich" has German roots, and German is the thematic language associated with Quincies. The theory Fusion mentioned about them having absorbing powers sounds possible, but that does not mean they're not Quincies.

These Quincy characters seem to have somewhat of a shadow-like alternate power. And Sasakibe claimed they can do bankai. Could they inherit abilities of other species?

 

I thought it was rather that they can absorb bankai, not that they can do it themselves.

and yay for mysterious alternate world.

 

 

Also, yeah I thought of the same thing (the arm cut scene)

It's getting off air because it wasted so much episodes? Well that's what the anime gets for going too far with spoilers. :\

 

It's not the anime's fault, or at least not all of it.

After Aizen, they did a whole, long filler arc before going to Fullbring.

But Kubo did not make it that far due to his terribad pacing.

You can see in the Fullbring arc they tried to extend episodes as much as they could. They would waste the first 5 minutes recapping the previous episode. It was bad.

They would have to do another filler arc to help fix this, but once you do so many in a row, along with Bleach's tanking popularity, you're wasting money.

Wait, Bleach is being canceled in Japan? Odd, I thought the series was still doing well over there. Guess not.

 

See, I don't think it is the pacing so much as almost nothing happening in the chapter. When you have something like that you are forced to make 2 or even 3 chapters into 1 ep and you end up catching up very fast because of that.

 

Also, of the 24 or so min of a One Piece ep the first 4 min or so are spent on Intro and Recap, so I don't think that is THAT big a problem. But since I haven't watched Bleach in ages I could be wrong.

My thinking was centered around on how during fights, he mostly uses big panels with flashy attacks with little to no dialogue to take up space, but that too.

True, but One Piece has made that a consistent part of its weekly releases, whereas Bleach didn't until that point. They were forced to do recap to stall.

Watched the penultimate Bleach episode today. I'm gonna imagine everything will be smashed together at the end. But in general it's pathetic how this all went and that Kubo should have been more wise enough to pace it so he could at least get the manga in.

 

Well when this all ends, it's back to MLP for me.
