Oh my god, I just realized something! This whole fight was filler, just to showcase the remaining people's techniques. 🤣

I hate fillers...

but you gotta admit that Kubo is good at just killing people off

Harribel's death was oddly satisfying

No, no, no. In Bleach, no death is confirmed, unless you see them dissipate or looks with blank eyes off into space. People got cut in half before and survived, what's a slash in the abdomen, right? 🤣 Though since Halibel isn't really important, it's likely she died, along with Stark too.

This means that Tite is going to introduce a new cast of antagonists, since I highly doubt Aizen, Gin and Tousen will be the only ones. There'll be new characters, and maybe some possible defections (unlikely though). Oooh right! Wonderweiss is still there too, and Yammi.

Meh, 5 antagonists are way too few people against the overwhelming amount of protagonists. Tite probably has more characters planned.

Super strong characters that can match against the Zero Squad.

Kinda slow there, Doc. 🤣

Seriously though, even though he showed some people's shikais and bankais, there are still characters whose shikai and/or bankai are still a mystery (Too many characters to list on here), characters who we have yet to see fight (Sasakibe, Unohana, Isane, Iba, Yachiru, Nemu), and then there are all of those sub-plots that have been left hanging for hundreds of chapters (Aizen's start of darkness, Which division Isshin used to be a captain of and why he left, the origin of the Hogyoku, etc).

Something tells me that Kubo will finish Bleach without providing answers to some (if not most) of these questions. 😐

Just because someone's head was chopped off doesn't mean they're dead. That's just silly.

But... Weren't the Arrancar supposed to be stronger than Gotei 13 captains? Toshigo got his ass handed to him by Arrancar 11 or 13 or something, and yet he fights Espada 3 on even ground?

The power level fluctuations just make no sence... At this point it really doesn't even matter whether or not Kubo introduced 10 more supposedly "uber-Vastro Lordes"... All they would manage to do would be to show off and help Aizen escape...

Fast forward 1-2 years later or 15 minutes of Bleach time, and all of a sudden the obviously weaker good guys would be fighting on even ground with the Vastro Lorde and winning no doubt...

Kubo should at least explain how the Gotei 13 captains got stronger... It would've made more sense for this Arc if Shinji and his Vizards had fought againsts all of the Espada. Then we wouldn't have Kenpachi (who lost to Ichigo's shikai) beat a stronger Espada than Ichigo wih KENDO... 😔 (I'm obviously not counting Ulquiorra fight because Ichigo used cheats...)

i think pirate meant it as a funny
but you right (i.e. is Grimmjow really dead?)
Starrk + Harribel are most likely dead although i would like to think not. Starrk seemed far too weak and Harribel had too fine a body 🙂

what i think is gonna happen is either one of the two

1. Aizen, Gin and Tousen will fight with the good dudes, they will not win
   but instead escape and this will start a new arc where ichigo and his friends try to track him down, yet this would be knew for kubo, because all his enemies where already at an exact destination, such as in a tower or a castle. in this case kubo would have to work out a little more mystery into his story.

2. the good dudes will kill aizen, probably have chapters talking about what everyone went on to do with there life, the end.

why because i am the president of the student council of course

I'm pretty sure Aizen is gonna pull some ace-in-his-sleeve-dues-ex-machina, and get ever so closer to his goals, till some other strong character comes and slows his progress, but not enough to stop him...

And then Ichigo somehow saves the day
Hollow level 3?
DBZ anyone?

Not really, cause the way he killed off Zommari and Aaroniero were done pretty horribly.

ichigo lets him down and they don't show his reflection story

[color=red]Spoilers[/color]

ハリベル様が　最後の力を振り絞り　愛染っ！！　と腹に突き刺すが　鏡を割った状態みたいにな り
Harribel, with her last ounce of strength, cries "Aizen!!" and stabs him in the abdomen. However, it's just a shattered mirror.
愛染　　面倒なことはさせるな　私に二撃めをさせるな
Aizen says things like, "You're causing me such trouble. Making me attack you twice."
見たいな事をいい後ろから型らへんをずぶりと突き刺し　ハリベル様は落下…
and then skewers her from behind. Harribel falls...
さあゴテイ１３隊？と中途半端な仮面ども　かかってきなさい　な事をいい
Then he asks the Gotei 13 captains and rest of the vizards to come.
場面は変わり　マシロさんへ
Scene changes to Mashiro.
マシロ　　あららエスパーダさんみんなやられちゃったね…
Mashiro: "Look at that. The Espada were defeated..."
しかしｗｗが復活しマシロへ襲い掛かる
But WW revives and attacks her.
2人の攻防が続き　６９が　いったん仮面を戻せ！もう時間が限界だろ　というが
The two have an exchange, and Kensei yells at her to temporarily put away her mask because there's still a limit.
いうこと聞かないマシロが突っ込み途中で仮面状態がとけ
But she doesn't hear him and as she's making a riposte her mask dissolves.
ｗｗの一撃を顔面にうけて吹っ飛ばされてしまう
WW fires at her face and she's blown away.

６９が吹っ飛んだマシロを抱きとめ
Kensei catches her in his arms,
俺はガキにだろうがなんだろうが手加減しねえぞ
and says that kid or not, he's not going to go easy on him.
って所で　完です
The chapter ends.

Ouch.

answer to number one:

Quote from silent killer

My guess is Aizen has another castle on top of Las Noches where his real army is. 😔 😔 😔

I thought we already covered what would happen.

Sarcasm just doesn't work over the internet.

Quote from Identity Crisis

Ouch.

So now we have to go through yet another fight that won't move the plot forward at all.

Yay.
