I did not expect that.
So who is the strongest now?
Maybe the top 3 still have some things up their sleeves.

Stark FTW!
yammys still a piece of shit

remember what uliq said when he released his sword he said that the espada 4 and above weren't allowed to release inside the dome because they were too strong for the dome, so that must mean he is weaker than number 4. and since uliq can do a second stage release and according to him no one else he knows can that means he is the strongest espada i am thinking.

So Kubo just set it up for Ichigo to save the ****ing day again after the other espada are finished off? Is it sad that I am not surprised by this?

Anywho, looking forward to more of the captain fights, and quietly hoping that Halibel pwns Hitsugaya and the espada finally get win. But with Hitsugaya being the most popular character and all, I highly doubt that.

wtf is up with 0?
Stark is the primera so hes the strongest right.
Yammy seems more like filler instead of one of the strongest.
Hopefully Halibel destroys Hitsugaya.

Yeah... I have a feeling that Stark would still be the strongest, if we don't take into account Ulquiorra's second release. With the second release (Espada Bankai?) Ulquiorra was probably the strongest, and he only lost because of Ichigo's hax.

Hitsugaya just has to lose if he doesn't have another power tucked away somewhere. There's no way he can beat the #3 when Kenpachi who used his new moves, lame as they were, barely beat #5.


Only if he has a second release. I doubt that he would be able to beat Ulquiorra's second release without his own, no matter how strong his first released form is.
Only reason Ulquiorra lost was Ichigo's "sleeping power". That's always what happens when you mess with the main character in a shonen manga.

Well I must say: I laughed. For two different reasons.
First: Yammi was right. No espada ever said the numbers went from 1 to 10.
Second: Seriously, is story ever going to move on??

Yes! Halibel's fight was featured again. Go Halibel, murder that bastard!

But yeah, hell yeah. Yammy's not as useless as I thought he was. Hopefully it will be some of the other shinigami locked in Hueco Mundo who come to finish it off rather than Ichigo.

This had me quite excited for a simple transition chapter. Looks like Bleach is poised to get entertaining again now that we're finally able to move away from Ichigo.

I'd like it if Ulquiorra was, but I bet that even though Aizen hadn't seen his second power-up, he knew about it, so Stark probably is the strongest.
This chapter was boring, I can't stand Yammy. Hope he gets his ass handed to him quickly, I don't want to read about him for more than 3 chapters.

major contradiction by Kubo, I guess. The U.S. release says essentially the same thing.

Either Kubo is the God of Trolls, or he just thought to himself, "Fuck past continuity! I'm doing it how I want it, when I want it, and you bitches better eat my illogical, shitty writing up and beg for seconds!"



First things first: What the fuck is Yammy supposed to be in his released form?

But Yammy HAS to be the strongest Espada now. If he isn't and Stark is still the strongest, then what the fuck is the point of having Yammy #0? It would be just an shallow plot twist that did absolutely nothing.


OBJECTION!

yammys # was a surprise who knew he knew how to use magic marker lol.

Can't yammy just be both? 10 when not released and 0 when released. makes sense in my book.

4 and above cannot release inside dome, yammy is a #10 releasing to become #0, so that rule does make sense when it come applying to this.

Can't you guys read? True grave unit said that no ESPADA ever said the numbers went from 1 to 10.

But yeah, I bet that Kubo just thought of the 0 thing recently. Ulquiorra almost knocked Yammi out after he lost his arm. There's no way a weaker Espada can boss around a stronger one.

One rule of thumb in shonen manga is that everybody gets progressively stronger, So if Yammi fights before Stark, he is weaker. I don't count Ulquiorra because he had the 2nd release thing going.

It would be funny if Wonderweiss (retarded little one) turns out the strongest without even being in the Espada. He did manage to surprise Urahara, after all.
