.... A nice link! .... A link to Bleach 236 Goodies. ...... HERE!

So what happened in this chapter? ......
Nobody guessed right the identity of the saviour. Grimmjow got his hand blown by Hirako. And since Hirako came up just now, it wouldn't be polite to make him go away right after such a good work. XD ..... Hirako took all the spotlight this week. That is, until Ulquiorra showed up and put an end to all the fun. .... What? ..... Luppi's not dead? ..... and it looks like Inoue isn't kidnapped either.

Next week: ......... *I don't know* .... What will happen next week? ....

Will Hirako and Vaizards continue teaching Ichigo? What will the Gotei 13 do? ..... Inoue? What about her? Is she free?

Predict the next chapter! ..... But for current chapter discussions go visit 235 Discussion Thread!

Is grimmjow dead now??[br]Posted on: July 21, 2006, 08:58:31 AM_________________________________________________sorry stupid question i read the raw one and tought ouquira ( don know his name) killed grimmjow. grimmjow is my fav character so sorry.

[strider123]

No, GJ ain`t dead he just got beat up pretty bad!

Now, i have a strong feeling that next week we`ll see Chad and Renji as well as Ichigo goin` back and train because, in his current state, he looks lame... he lost in both battles with GJ... i think it`s time that he realizes that if he doesn`t get any stronger now, he will be a burden.

I think Orihime will end up healing Grimjow, I doubt he will face off against Ichigo totally armless, I bet Inoue will heal all of the arrancar, and yes Ichigo will learn to hold his mask much longer.

[RegulasFade]

Um hasnt anyone noticed that Orhime is standing OUTSIDE the barrier. Infact it looks liek tis HER barrier. And shes still inbetween worlds whats more.


Any thoughts

[Predator]

Let's stick to predicting the next chapter instead of discussing this chapter.

I think, next week we'll find out that Inoue was just healing both injured Shinigamis and she was given a message for Soul Society, Ichigo and everyone else. Ichigo will be really pissed, but he'll go back training with Vaizards at the end of the next chapter.

[RegulasFade]

Well because any dessicusion about Inoues situation is like youve just posted above,, in essance a pediction for next chapter.

[ryderdm3]

Inoue IS standing outside of her own barrier and most likely healing the two wounded shinigami. Check out the raw or scans, you can clearly see her feet are outside and below the barrier.

Anyway....my prediction...guaranteed to be atleast 85% incorrect.

Chapter starts off showing Ichigo, Rukia, and Shinji. Shinji removes his mask and rukia is thinking about the kind of power these guys, including Ichigo, have. Shinji scolds Ichigo and tells him that he wasn't ready and how he nearly cost his friend's life again. The scene switches to Urahara who is wondering why they left all of a sudden, but remarks whatever it was couldn't have been good.

We then switch back to Inoue who is clearly shown healing the two shinigami that were nearly killed before. She has finished the healing but they are both really out of it. She tells them to stay calm and leave immediately, for she was able to bargain to save their lives if she goes with the arrancar. Ulquiorra returns and tells Inoue to get going, for they have no time to waste. Inoue, with tears in her eyes, begins walking towards Ulquiorra and the opened portal to Hueco. As she nears we get some off the page comments from someone and then two people shunpou in front of Inoue.....It's Captain Ukitake and Captain Byakuya!

[midnight789]

MWAHAHAHAH Inoue has started on the path to the dark side, soon she will be darth inoue!!!
and rukia didnt get her head blown off so you all don't owe me 2 cents yet.....
As for the next chapter I believe it will be alot of talking.

[sahugani]

regarding inoue, there has been alot of buildup for her becoming a force to be reckoned with. despit her first hollow fight, tsubaki has failed to kill or even harm anyone, so he will get the chance at some point. She considered herself useless, chad only trusted her healing abilities when he went against yamii, the vaizard and urahara didn't want her to fight, and aizen wants her time manipulation (assuming she actually is going with uliquiorra). She went through training to inprove herself and i think very soon, she will need to put these skills to the task and she will kick ass. I don't know when it will happen or the circumstances leading up to it, but i strongly believe that inoue will be the one to kill uliquiorra. She could have made a deal to go with him, in which case, she'll sabotage the arrancar from the inside while ichigo and the others fight to save her. if she does stay though, Kubo will keep her powers secret the longest, only revealing them after chad's "bankai" stage, ishida's change of heart, possibly more bankai's (probably matsumoto), and ichigo's vaizard powers

[Substance]

ichigo hasnt won a fight since Soul Society eeerrrr. Beside's that I know ichigo will continue Training with his newly aquired friends...hopefully he can find a way to last longer in prehollow mode...(hopefully it was just exhaustion or lack of power why he wasnt able to last longer) Maybe discover that his dad is a shinigami...(if im correct he doesn't know yet) WHAT IF HIS DAD HAS HOLLOW POWERS ZOMG!!
i think ulquiorrai is going to regret underestimating ichigo because from what i've comprehended thus far he doesnt see ichigo as a threat at all...


run on's FTW!

Ichigo's track record's sucked so far:

Arc 0:
-draws vs Grand Fisher
-loses vs Byakuya

Soul Society Arc:
-beats Jidanbou
-beats Ikkaku
-draws against Renji (sorry, "the other guy passed out due to bloodloss before me" isn't a victory)
-draws against Kenpachi (again, it ended in mutual defeat)
-draws against Byakuya (call it a draw, since he both needed his hollow's help, and at the end Byakuya was able to flee)
-loses to Aizen

Human world arc:
-loses to Yami
-loses to Grimjaw (fight was cut short but it was obvious he would've lost)
-loses to Grimjaw (again!)

Ichigo isn't even the main character anymore. He may be "special" but certainly far less "special" than the rest of the cast.

That belongs more in the 236 discussion thread And Ichigo loosing that much makes it even more interesting for me. I mean No "I rule everything" character and he still has to grow a lot...also his enemies are extremly strong so he hasnt a easy path to walk.

For the upcomming chapter we will probably get a analyse of what hat has happened right now. Probably Urahara has discovers something new as always. Hirako will tell Ichigo that he is still far too weak and needs to improve more. Also we will get to know what Inoue is doing since her status is still unclarified even it looks like she isnt in the beam.

[graphic_content]

I actually predicted right....Ive never predicted right...ever....I know it isnt worth much...but it still feels pretty good (makes sandwich) (about Hirako coming in last second)...

I would have to agree with 'des', considering all the action we have been seeing lately...the story does need a little down time...(but if we get action, I won't complain)...Im guessing Urahara is more than likely gonna be leading this conversation (considering his knowledge of all things nobodys knows), and introductions are in order for Hirako to the rest of the gang...more than likely they wont be taking to kindly to him at first...his group did use 'forbidden techniqes', Im expecting some angst to arise...but nothing but composure from Urahara...whose known (somehow) from the start...

i wonder...does Urahara somehow feel responsible for thats all happened considering that he was in fact the creator of the (crystal thing whose name I cant remember - right now) Everyone, in essence is fighting to clean up his mess - in a manner of speaking - Its kinda the classic example of technology goin to far - inventing something that should have never existed in the first place kinda thing...Im thinking that his 'always casual' demeanor is a way of hiding the fact that he knows hes responsible - and now he must depend on others to help bring down what he essentially started -

no...im not Urahara bashing - Im actually a big fan...just thinking 'out loud' something character development-wise.

[gans88]

I'd have to agree on some of ur comments graphic but his casual demeanor is not a way of hiding the fact that he;s responsible. He already expressed his greif to ichigo when ichigo came back from soul society. I'm just guessing that he's the type of guy that doesn't want to get any worried. Just imagine, if urahara was a total wreck and always acted depressed then wouldn't that send chills to his "students"?? Urahara also stated in one of the manga chapters to yourichi something about losing there lives when its all done. So I think he acts the way he does to keep everyone calm and that everything is not as bad as it may seem. Sure we know that aizen is a shinigami whos' maxed out every kind of technique to its fullest shinigami potential. But I"m pretty sure that urahara has probably done so too since he made the hougyko. Same goes for yamamoto just because he's old and seems like one damn crazy fighter when needed to be. As for the next chapter I think ichigo is gonna go through another blaming himself stage since orihime is most likely gone considering uquliro said mission complete. Hiroka, rukia and ichigo will have some convo about some stuff and then it'll end of with ichigo saying he'll save orihime. or could possibly end of with a comment with urahara saying that things are gonna get very difficult from now on since aizen has orihime. And then he'll explain thats the reason why he didn't want orihime to fight because if she got caught then things could get difficult.
