The battle of battles takes place in this volume. After a great deal of anticipation and excitement, the highly hyped battle between Ichigo and Byakuya finally commences!

Not only does it occur within the pages of this volume, but it unfolds from start to finish. There is an abundance of bloodshed and an intense desire to win at any cost, which truly makes this volume incredibly impactful.

Amidst the chaos of the battle, one might overlook some of the other significant events happening in this volume. However, in my opinion, the best lines in this book are as follows:

"If we don't uphold the law...who will?"
"Sorry. I still don't get it. If I were in your shoes...I'd...fight the law."

To me, these lines echo the famous quote "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." They capture the essence of the entire battle at the Soul Society and, in my view, form the backbone of Bleach. What a remarkable volume by Tite Kubo!

Ichigo VS Byakuya is one of the most beautiful things up to now.

The intense battle between them is truly a spectacle to behold. Ichigo, with his unwavering determination and ever-growing power, faces off against the mighty Byakuya.

The clash of their swords and the release of their spiritual energies create a storm of epic proportions.

Each move and countermove is executed with precision and skill, as if they are engaged in a dance of death.

The onlookers can only watch in awe as the two warriors push each other to their limits.

This battle is not just a fight for victory, but a test of their wills and a demonstration of their true strength.

It is a moment that will be etched in the memories of all who witness it, a battle that defines the essence of what it means to be a warrior.

This volume is truly one of the most thrilling in the series.

We are treated to a fascinating flashback that delves into the past of Yoruichi and Soi Fon. Their battle reaches a conclusion that is filled with heartfelt emotions, making it one of the most memorable moments throughout the entire series.

The fight between Ichigo and Byakuya is nothing short of amazing, easily ranking among the best in the series. And who could forget the scene where Ichigo first reveals his Bankai? It's truly a sight to behold.

The artwork in this volume is simply epic and grandiose. Tite Kubo's passion for this story and these characters is palpable and leaps right off the page.

The reveal at the end of this volume is exciting and smoothly segues into the beginning of the end of the Soul Society arc. I can't wait to see how the manga unfolds this storyline and arc, and what adventures and challenges await our beloved characters.

Another great volume of Bleach!

This latest installment in the popular manga series does not disappoint. The story continues to unfold in a thrilling and engaging way, with new characters and plot twists that keep readers on the edge of their seats.

The artwork is as stunning as ever, with detailed illustrations that bring the characters and their world to life. The action scenes are particularly well-drawn, with a sense of energy and excitement that makes them a joy to behold.

Overall, this volume of Bleach is a must-read for fans of the series. It offers everything that makes Bleach so great - a captivating story, memorable characters, and beautiful artwork. Whether you're a long-time fan or a newcomer to the series, you're sure to find something to love in this latest volume.

Ichigo concludes his ultimate showdown with Rukia's elder brother. At the moment, I can't recall his name. And thus, this specific arc of the manga reaches its end. For so many volumes now, it has been an intense, second-by-second in-scene storytelling. As I continue reading, I truly have no clue where I'm headed next.

The confrontation with Rukia's elder brother unfolds in the classic Manga style. In fact, when I look back on it, it somewhat reminds me of the moment in "The Princess Bride" when Wesley and Inigo take turns saying, "I'm not left-handed." Both combatants gradually reveal their abilities a little at a time, engaging in increasingly powerful attacks, with plenty of banter back and forth in between. It's rather enjoyable, though.

Overall, this arc has been a thrilling ride, filled with excitement and unexpected twists. I'm eager to see what the next part of the story holds and how Ichigo's journey will continue to unfold.

This series is truly gold.

It stands out among others with its remarkable qualities. The storylines are engaging, filled with twists and turns that keep the viewers on the edge of their seats. The characters are well-developed, each with their own unique personalities and motives. The production values are top-notch, with stunning visuals and excellent cinematography.

Whether it's the action-packed scenes or the more emotional moments, this series has something for everyone. It has the ability to transport the audience into a different world and make them forget about their own troubles for a while.

In conclusion, this series is a must-watch for anyone who loves great television. It is a shining example of what can be achieved when talented people come together to create something truly special.

The best volume so far! It features a long awaited showdown between Ichigo and Byakuya. The character of Byakuya is truly remarkable. He reminds me of Itachi Uchiha, yet there is a significant difference. Byakuya is this cool big brother figure who is mostly on the right side. He has a certain charm and an air of authority that makes him stand out. On the other hand, Itachi of Naruto plays the double agent throughout the story. His actions are often mysterious and complex, adding an extra layer of intrigue to his character. While both characters have their own unique qualities, Byakuya's straightforwardness and sense of justice make him a favorite among fans. This volume truly showcases the intensity and excitement of their battle, leaving readers on the edge of their seats.

In December 2012 and December 2023, we witnessed an intense battle between Byakuya and Ichigo that dominated most of this volume.

We saw them bleed, engage in arguments, and yet, they both looked remarkably beautiful. Finally, Ichigo's Bankai was revealed, and he held his ground in the battle. In fact, he emerged victorious! We also learned the reason why Byakuya wanted to put Rukia to death, which seemed rather cold. However, I sense that there is more to this story than just his pursuit of upholding the law.

As a side note for future battles, Ichigo appears to have a dual personality within him, one that refuses to let him die. We have encountered this Hollow mask several times before, always saving his life. But this is the first time it manifests in his personality and takes over.

Meanwhile, Yoruichi is still locked in battle with Soi Fon, and we learn more about their history. Unfortunately, the battle is not yet over, leaving us with more to anticipate. Additionally, two guys randomly engage in a battle for sake (silly boys), and this too remains unresolved.

Now, we reach the end of the volume. Here, we are plunged right back into the mystery of who killed Aizen. Hitsugaya enters the chamber of the Council of 46, where all crimes of Soul Reapers are judged. To his horror, he discovers that they have all been murdered, with the blood dried for days. He realizes that all the orders regarding Rukia's death and the war against the intruders have been orchestrated by someone else.

At this moment, Izuru shows up and leads Hitsugaya away from the chamber. During the chase, he tells Hitsugaya not to pursue him but to go save Momo. As Hitsugaya runs off to save Momo, Izuru and Matsumoto begin to battle. We then find Momo piecing things together and stumbling upon the dead council members. From behind, Gin greets her.

The tension is palpable, and I'm eagerly ready for the next volume!

I absolutely loved it!

From the moment I laid eyes on it, I was captivated.

The colors were vibrant and inviting, drawing me in like a moth to a flame.

The details were exquisite, showing the care and attention that had been put into its creation.

It had a certain charm and allure that was impossible to resist.

As I interacted with it, I felt a sense of joy and excitement welling up inside me.

It made me forget about all the stresses and worries of the day and simply enjoy the moment.

Whether it was the way it felt in my hands or the way it looked from different angles, everything about it was perfect.

I can't wait to experience it again and again, and I will cherish this memory for a long time to come.

Loved it!

For me, this was the most highly anticipated battle ever since we first caught a glimpse of him.

And let me tell you, it was simply AWESOME!!!

However, Ichigo's Bankai wasn't quite as impressive as I had hoped. It didn't have the same impact as the others we had witnessed so far.

We sort of got a sense of what he truly was, and it sent shivers down my spine. Although it wasn't dwelled upon for long, just a quick glance, but it was enough to make an impression.

The plot within the Soul Society is definitely thickening with the discovery of the court. There are so many mysteries and secrets yet to be uncovered, and I can't wait to see what unfolds next.

Overall, this battle and the developments in the story have left me on the edge of my seat, eagerly awaiting the next installment.

I absolutely love the way Ichigo's bankai appears in that colored section.

It's truly magnificent and adds a whole new level of excitement to the story. The battle that follows, with the appearance of Blanco to save Ichigo, is intense and full of action.

The beginning, on the other hand, has a rather eerie feel to it with Gin and a surprise guest.

It sets the stage for what's to come and keeps the readers on the edge of their seats.

The combination of these elements makes this part of the story a real page-turner.

I can't wait to see what happens next and how Ichigo will continue to grow and develop in his battles.

Overall, it's a great addition to the Bleach series and I highly recommend it to all fans of the genre.

WUAAAA! I KNEW IT! I knew that sooner or later we were going to see the power of Ichigo's void, how strong it is! It doesn't make sense, and they only showed us a little bit. I really want to know more about this power.

Ichigo finally wins. This fight is a little bit too fast, but it was good.

What is Ichimaru's objective? Why is he doing all of this? There must be some deeper reason behind his actions. Maybe he has his own motives and plans that we don't know about yet. We need to keep watching to find out more.
