I find myself growing increasingly attached to these characters and the story.

This volume was truly amazing. The development of the characters has been so captivating, making me feel as if I know them personally. Each one has their own unique personality traits and backstories that draw me in deeper with every turn of the page.

The story itself has taken some unexpected twists and turns, keeping me on the edge of my seat and eager to find out what will happen next. It's like I'm on a thrilling adventure along with the characters.

I can't wait to see how the story progresses in the next volume and how the characters will continue to evolve. This series has definitely become one of my favorites, and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good story with engaging characters.

This is probably the best volume so far.

Yoruichi and Soi Fon commence the volume, and we are provided with a modicum of background information on both of them. It is actually managed rather proficiently, and the fight is intense and executed splendidly. Swift, which truly encapsulates both characters remarkably well. Subsequently, we have Ichigo pitted against Byakuya, and this is the battle that we have been eagerly anticipating. When Byakuya unleashes one of his most potent attacks and Ichigo simply swats it aside, the battle reaches an all-time zenith as both characters must unlock their ultimate forms...BANKAI!

The fights are characterized by a fast pace, brutality, epic grandeur, and a fantastical nature. This is purely an action-packed volume, yet it also harbors a great deal of heart as there are stakes involved and Rukia's life remains in peril. The sheer tenacity of Ichigo, pushing himself to the absolute limits to safeguard someone he loves, is truly remarkable. It is beneficial that the art is spot-on and the fight is actually fairly straightforward to follow while still looking magnificent.

Overall, this is what the entire arc has been culminating towards and it has paid off handsomely. Then, at the very end, the next arc begins to take shape with a significant cliffhanger. A solid 4.5 out of 5.

I knew it wouldn't let me down. In my opinion, this features the best fight in the entirety of Bleach. Ichigo's first Bankai and one of the best moments in the entire story.

The intensity and excitement of this scene are truly palpable. It's a moment that fans have been waiting for, and it doesn't disappoint.

I think any volume past this will struggle to beat it, but I'll be happy to be proven wrong. My favorite character, Ichigo, is back and stronger than ever.

With that, the Soul Society arc is done, and it was thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyable. The story has taken so many twists and turns, and this arc has been a real highlight.

Now, for Aizen. What will happen next? I can't wait to find out.

It's truly a fascinating and intense moment. The way the story unfolds during this instance is simply captivating.

The fighting in this volume was so good. The choreography of the battles, the power struggles, and the emotions on display make it a real page-turner.

We get to see Ichigo's inner turmoil as he battles against the hollow within him. It adds a new layer of depth to his character and makes us root for him even more.

The art in this volume is also top-notch, vividly bringing the action to life.

Overall, it's a great addition to the series and I can't wait to see what happens next.

Damn nobility! It is truly a form of useless pride. This pride that some nobles carry around as if it makes them superior is nothing but an empty façade. You, Byakuya, are so much better than that. You have the potential to see beyond this false sense of superiority and embrace a more genuine and meaningful way of life.


Don't let the trappings of nobility hold you back. Break free from the chains of this useless pride and show the world what you are truly capable of. You have the strength and the wisdom to rise above such pettiness.


Let go of the idea that being noble makes you better than others. Instead, focus on being a better person, a kinder person, a more understanding person. That is where true greatness lies. Byakuya, you are better than the damn nobility and all its useless pride. Prove it to yourself and to the world.

I like volume nineteen a great deal. As I previously stated in my volume thirteen review regarding my second favorite fight in the soul society arc, this particular volume contains my absolute favorite.

Ichigo dedicated the previous three volumes to intense training and managed to rescue Rukia from her impending execution, only to then face the formidable Byakuya in battle.

It is within this battle that Ichigo finally unleashes his bankai, a moment of great significance and power.

The build-up to this moment throughout the volumes has been thrilling, and seeing Ichigo reach this new level of strength and ability is truly captivating.

Volume nineteen is a crucial and exciting installment in the series, filled with action, drama, and the development of Ichigo's character.

It showcases his growth and determination, and leaves the reader eagerly anticipating what will come next.

The most epic fight between Ichigo and Byakuya took place, and it was truly an astonishing spectacle.

Ichigo, with his determination and growing power, faced off against the formidable Byakuya. The clash of their spiritual energies filled the air, creating a sense of intense drama.

Byakuya, known for his elegance and mastery of the sword, unleashed a series of powerful attacks. But Ichigo refused to back down. He countered with his own skills and abilities, pushing himself to the limit.

The fight raged on, with both combatants showing no signs of giving up. The audience watched in awe as the two warriors engaged in a battle of wills and strength.

In the end, it was a fight that will be remembered as one of the greatest in the history of the series. The epic struggle between Ichigo and Byakuya left a lasting impression on everyone who witnessed it.

Absolutely amazing!!

I'm gonna say it but don't come for me. I have to admit that for some reason, I'm not too fond of Orihime or Ichigo. Maybe it's their personalities or the way they interact with other characters. Orihime, for instance, sometimes seems a bit too submissive and dependent on others. Ichigo, on the other hand, can be a bit too hot-headed and impulsive.


Of course, this doesn't mean that I don't think they are important characters in the story. They both have their own strengths and weaknesses, and they play crucial roles in the plot. But for me personally, they just don't quite click. I know that many people love them, and that's great. Everyone has their own favorite characters, and that's what makes the world of anime and manga so diverse and interesting.


Maybe one day I'll change my mind and start to appreciate Orihime and Ichigo more. But for now, I'm just being honest about my feelings. And who knows, maybe my views will evolve as I continue to watch and read more of the series.

"Sorry, Byakuyo, I don't have any terrifying attacks like yours. Zangetsu taught me only one attack, Getsuga Tenshou."


To me, this seems to imply that Zangetsu is a kind of "homeless" being who knows only one attack. :D But Byakuya is really the king of flowers.


However, we should not underestimate Zangetsu or his single attack. Getsuga Tenshou may seem simple on the surface, but it could hold great power and potential. Maybe Zangetsu has mastered this attack to such an extent that it is more than enough for him in various situations.


And Byakuya, being the "king of flowers," surely has his own unique and powerful abilities. His elegance and skill in battle are well-known. It will be interesting to see how these two characters with their different styles and abilities interact and develop in the story.
