Actually, the Kyuubi was not all surprised that Minato could enter Kyuubi mode and expected no less. It was more an admiring "I didn't know you could do that" than a "You're not supposed to be able...

Actually in the real world evil is still determined by the intent. That's why there's killing for self-defence and the difference between manslaughter and murder. And insanity pleas.

Of course,...

Yup. That's why I think this sudden show of humility is an actual effort to raise the morale of his subordinates.

So far in this arc, Kubo pandered to NaruHina fanboys, Itachi fanboys, Oro fanboys, Hashirama fanboys and who knows what else. I find it best just to enjoy it for what it is :).

What those pages imply is that Ichigo didn't get his zanpakutou properly. It's done that job, and now Ichigo is getting his proper zanpakutou.

It'd be nice if we got a fleeting explanation of how...

The entire point of the Asauchi undertaking was that he did not create his zanpakutou properly the first time around.

Honestly, I don't think it matters anymore HOW he got his first zanpakutou....

Naruto has near-perfect chakra control (due to his sage training), that's why. That's why he can mold chakra that would normally be dangerous to the average human into something that is beneficial...

I love this post. Great insight. I thought it was a dew drop falling from a leaf signifying a new morning, but I never was good at properly interpreting manga panels :)).



He was referring to...

Based on the Japanese spoilers, yeah, it's plural. Madara called it "bijuu-domo".

Yeah. Hachibi was supposed to take the bijuudama (probably die in the process). Minato teleported it away.

Japanese "double issues" are not what you'd expect them to be :lol:. Double issues mean that it's 1 week's worth of manga in two weeks. Weekly manga magazines have a certain number of issues per...

Since Ichigo is Hollow, Shinigami, Human and Quincy, there is nothing really opposite to him.

Or maybe there is an unknown factor somewhere.

Probably, except that IIRC, Shirosaki is an entirely fanmade name. Kubo never used that, AFAIK.

It's also possible that Isshin was forced to dispose of the Quincies and chose to escape himself with the help of his family. It could be why the Shibas were ostracized.

I'm not sure, but I think you can attack during blut vene. You just can't enhance it with blut arterie at the same time.

If Masaki had raised Ichigo, Ichigo wouldn't be as lost as he is right now.

Masaki and Isshin seem to both have this same demeanor where they keep calm in the face of an unknown strong enemy....

The Japanese believe that girls of marrying age should avoid getting scars because it diminishes their value as wives, and Masaki just didn't give a damn, or even a second thought to it.

Tobirama also changed between then and now. Note how he blamed the Uchiha's fickleness on hatred in this chapter, while in the present time he blamed it on love.

Clearly something big happened in...

How lame does it sound?

Sounds fine (and plausible) to me. And actually flows much more smoothly from what we already know. At least a version of it. It's akin to curses through generations (like...

Kubo's at the top of his game right now. Best few chapters we've had for quite a long time.

Rimi actually has the upper hand. So many wasted panels on the stupid Rimi-Miu fight. Just Miu getting berserk, then getting hit, then repeat. Over and over again.

Lol, I was waiting for "clinch" since he implied that he can grapple too.

I think I've seen too much real boxing and read too much Ippo.

Good points. They probably have their own intentions, but we know that Minato at least was confident with leaving everything behind to his son.

That's thinking too much into it.

If they kill Oro, they're unsummoned. Plus, theyd need a reason to do anything first. That's assuming of course, sneaky as Oro is, that he doesnt have other...

Why would he need to restrict them? They won't do anything.

Oro can just stop the summoning if ever they try something funny. Blocking their personality was for making them do stuff against their...
