Bleach Manga Chapter 355 – Azul-Blood Splash
Ah, since the end of Ichigo’s transformation, the entertainment rate of Bleach has somehow decreased. The ripping in half of cute little Shiro-chan has certainly helped me regain my carnivorous appetite.
The chapter starts off with Komamura using a kidou spell to heal the wounded vice-captains. If you remember from 10-15 chapters ago, they were all severely injured. The first one to awake is Kiram who is shocked to see that the captains are being overpowered by the three Espada.
In the most interesting of the three fights Shunsui faces the first Espada - Stark. Neither of the two opponents has yet to use any power-ups and are curently just testing their speed. They’re both surprised to see that they’ve underestimated each other. Stark, however, manages to land a hit on Shunsui’s hat and barely scratches the shinigami’s forehead.
The author takes us to Hitsugaya, who is struggling to keep up with the thrid Espada – Halibel. Now, I know Hitsugaya’s young and all, but failing so miserably, while using bankai is just pathetic. I mean, the bitch uses water, couldn’t he at least try to freeze it something?! I think his bankai really hasn’t matured enough. He only has one ice flower left, though the fight hasn’t lasted for very long. Anyways, it’s interesting to see Halibel’s fighting style. It’s a mixture between Byakuya’s and Ichigo’s. She uses high-speed attacks, can fire “Proyectyl azul” (Blue missile) much like Ichigo’s Getsuga Tenshou and her resurreccion is similar to Byakuya’s bankai – millions of small particles can attack you at the same time, having no blind point. But instead of small metal blades, Halibel’s little killers are water molecules. I’m guessing that’s how she was able to cut Shiro-chan’s right side off – water molecules can dissolve anything, when used in an extremely high concentration (and high temperature and so on). And there’s also lots of water in the air, so it shouldn’t be a problem to strike a single captain from such a distance. But luckily this is just a theory of mine. If it turns out to be real, then Halibel is indeed extremely powerful and with her type of power, the only one who could stop her is probably Yamamoto. The other, even less likely possibility is that since Halibel’s water powers are similar to Aizen’s she has a mirage ability. Or the least interesting possibility – that she used a super fast Proyectyl azul.
While Halibel is busy getting more and more naked.. uhh.. I mean.. kickin’ Hitsugaya’s ass, Soi Fon and Omaeda are losing horribly against the second Espada – Barragan. So far the shinigami’s attempts at damaging the elderly-looking self-proclaimed “King of hollows” are futile. That fact annoys Barragan and he decides to quickly finish off his opponents. His weapon is revealed – his throne! Apparantly it can shapeshift into a viking axe. Perhaps it morphs into other stuff, too. A razor for those moustache would be nice. next comes Omaeda’s “time to shine”, with another one of his ridiculous questions. I think it was pretty obvious to all the readers that when Yamamoto and all of his captains go to war, they certainly wouldn’t go around placing seals on themselves. It’s a serious battle, they need all the strength they can get. The poor fat guy really looks sad when Soi Fon announces that she’s already fighting at her full strenght. Still, I haven’t seen her use her bankai… I thought all captains except Kenpachi have a bankai. I’m sure she can to better than this.
Yet Hitsugaya’s fight leads me to believe otherwise. Like I mentioned before, Halibel uses her resurreccion – Tiburon (Shark) and instantly turns Shiro-chan into shark-food. (And she looks sexy doin’ it!) According to Kubo Tite’s ranking list from after the Soul Society ark, Hitsugaya should be on par with Gin and Byakuya, yet he always seems like he’s the weakest captain. My prognosis on this is: Komamura is going to fight Halibel now, while Hitsugaya recovers inside the kidou barrier. meanwhile Shiro-chan is gonna have a long fight-talk with his dragon and emerge more powerful than ever to kick the Espada’s ass.

Well I can’t see J coming back to write these chap summaries anytime soon. I guess I’ll do one this week, though I find very little to say about these latest chapters. I found the whole Ulqui finds redemption just before he dies a little cliche. The whole Ichigo suddenly getting restored left a bad taste in my mouth, like when you use cheat codes to beat your friends in a game or something… I hope Kubo knows what he is doing, essentially he just showed us that Ichigo is a god and thus destroyed any tension of him really losing in future fights. Ahhh well, back to this chapter. Napp– I mean Yammy, feels Veget– er.. Ulqui’s death and turns into a Great Ape to fight Rukia, Chad and Renji. I have trouble believing Yammay is the top Espada…. Meanwhile Shiro-chan is getting his ass handed to him by “Underboobs” Halibel. The End. And I can’t believe you guys didn’t put up this awesome spread that came with chapter 353, remember our motto here at BleachedIchigo! It’s all about the….
