Bleach Chapter 376 – EXecution, EXtinction 2
This week’s title is the same as last week. If this do goes all the way to 6, like “The Lust”, then we’re gonna see Yammi and/or Wonderweiss kick the bucket.
I think I figured out why Hallibel’s the 3rd Espada. She just refuses to die. You can do anything to her, but she’ll just get up again. Aizen was even forced to attack her twice. The second time being more brutal than the first – he pierced her with his sword right above the heart and then he just cut her open like a pig. Not a very beautiful way to die.
But I guess, in a way, she deserved it. Not just because she’s one of the bad guys, but because she’s so naive. She even fell for the same mirror trick twice. Even though Toushiro’s wasn’t as good as Aizen’s. She should’ve at least known that Aizen is a master of illusion… Instead, blinded by her anger, she attacks head on and dies without having a flashback. Ah, well, another pair of boobs you guys won’t ever get to see naked.
As Hallibel falls to the ground, Aizen doesn’t forget to remark that his own strength surpasses all of the Espadas’ put together. He then challenges all of the Gotei 13 and the Vizards (whom he ironically calls Arrancar-wannabes) to come and get him. I would also like to add that Aizen’s ability to be an asshole beyond the extend of a normal human is also quite remarkable. He’s all of the Espadas AND a bag of chips (and also Superman and Kon).
Now, onto the last remaining Arrancar in Karakura town – the mysterious Wonderweiss Margera. He’s facing a formidable enemy in the face of Mashiro. There have been a lot of speculations that Wonderweiss is a Vasto Lorde, yet he’s losing so badly. An idiot who’s somehow able to sneak up on people like Ukitake and Urahara, but gets beaten by a hyperactive little Vizard. After kicking him a few times and smashing him into the ground Mashiro uses a Cero to finish the job.
And here Wonderweiss’ true strength comes into play – he disperses a powerful Cero with only his scream. The exact opposite happens to Mashiro – her mask suddenly cracks, due to reaching its limit. Her confusion gives Wondewrweiss the perfect opportunity to land a counterattack and break her annoying, yet cute face.
Now, many people wondered how come her mask broke, even though she stated some time ago that she could keep it on for over 15 hours. We get an explanation for that from Kensei, who warns Mashiro that her mask won’t hold out as long when she’s actually fighting someone.
As Wonderweiss aims the finishing punch, his hand is stopped by Kensei, who, unlike Ukitake, has no problem beating up kids.
Yay, Kensei! Go, beat ‘im up good! If Wonderweiss really is a Vasto Lorde and/or as strong as/stronger than Stark, then this is gonna be really quite the match. All you fans out there be prepared for the first of the Vizards’ bankai.

woot! great chapter! wonderwise’s face when he saw her mask break was hilarious. i also liked how kense seemed pissed at the end, i hope we see his bankai,…..mumbles something about kyoraku being a stingy bitch…but anyway, i wonder why this one was Execution Extinction 2? maybe seince this time the chapter started with hallibels execution like starrks last chapter?

btw what do you mean she fell for the mirror trick twice? i thought this chapter was the first time it happened to hallibel?

Hitsugaya used the exact same thing on her 20 chapters ago..
I hope that this battle doesn’t take more than 2-3 chapters. I really wanna see Aizen fight.

Yeah, this won’t last long. First hollow kensei and shikai dominate WW, then WW resurrection dominate kensei, then kensei bankai kills WW.
Although there still is a possibility that Ukitake interferes (don’t know how, don’t care who cures him), and kills WW.
The most powerful captains kill the most powerful hollows.

Intresting little chapter. Aizen said a couple lines more than usual in one chapter. hooray for that.
And indeed YAY for Kensei! I feel sorry any children he might have had. Finally WW goes totally ape. Hopefully longer than one punch in the face. I wonder how strong Captain Crazy Brain will do against a Vaizard who can go bankai. Which well Love and Rose havent shown us. Kinda makes me wonder is Kensei will end up using his.

I dont see Kensei beating Wonderweiss (as cool as that would be). He’ll probably have the advantage at first with his mask + shikai, then Wonderweiss will use Resurreccion and transform, then he’ll start beating up Kensei, and Ukitake will show up and end it.
Looks like MArt was right when he said the masks go away depending on how much power used, instead of a time limit. Hats off to you mart.

i dont know why you guys are so sure that ukitake is going to interfere in this WW/Kensei fight. the guy has tuberculosis, and had a fist penetrate his chest. I am a ukitake fan as much as the next guy, but under those circumstances, the 13th division might need a new taichou when this is all said and done.

Yeah, i thought two vaizard captains would be able to beat starrk, but instead kyoraku had to come to save their sorry asses. And maybe someone did some healing on him. Kira or the fat vaizard.
By Pretend3r, October 6, 2009 @ 12:55 pm
I wouldnt go that far bruji. The vaizard captains never went Bankai. ANd lets assume they could.
Also Starrk was caught off guard by kyouraku’s special abilities.

abviously you are a noob at reading manga, halibels abdominals were cut down and at the second blow she was just pierced through her left clavicula. she wasnt cut open like a “pig”, and certainly the first one was far worse since it cut ddnt pierce…
