This was nonstop action. Yoruichi now has to train Ichigo for three days to learn the Bankai and Uryū is tackling a diabolical villain of his own. I feel like the next volume is really going to lean into Uryū's POV and I'm here for it. I didn't really like him when we were first introduced to him, but he's definitely growing on me!

"Ichigo and Yoruichi race to save Ichigo's friends from Rukia's cold-blooded brother, Byakuya Kukichi. They arrive to find Ganju in tatters, and Rukia with him. Ichigo is bent on defeating her brother this time, but he is nowhere near prepared. Can he learn decades' worth of skill in just a matter of days?"

You bet he can! Because he's Ichigo! I'm struggling to understand why this manga is so successful. I just don't get it.

volume intenso ricco di avvenimenti. La scena in cui Byakuya inizia un confronto con Yoruichi è bellissima ma purtroppo è anche brevissima. Non vedo l’ora di leggere del prossimo allenamento di Ichigo! Nella seconda parte il focus è tutto sul magico duo Ishida - Inoue e sul loro orrendo incontro con quel ratto disgustoso del Capitano Kurotsuchi. Ho sempre odiato questo personaggio ed è bastato rivederlo per alcune pagine e già non lo voglio vedere mai più, manco disegnato piccolo piccolo sullo sfondo (spoiler: invece mi toccherà vederlo ancora un bel po’ di volte).

This was better than the previous few books. Orihime had some great scenes and the ending with the Quincy vs mad scientist was great. I’m ready to be done with the soil society arch but this had a great ending.

I’d dare to say that Bleach’s success has its roots in character design. There are way too many damn characters BUT you can recognize each of their faces. These designs are as unique as people. I’d extend it to the weapons as well.

As I sit here and dote on it I can’t find what makes Bleach so popular aside from what’s listed above. Uryu’s carrying the end of this volume.

Why does it take so long to get information? I have a couple new questions! On to the next volume!

Bleach Volume 14 continues the thrilling saga of Ichigo Kurosaki and his companions as they venture deeper into the Soul Society, determined to rescue Rukia Kuchiki from her impending execution. This volume is a solid addition to the series, delivering an enjoyable mix of intense action, character development, and gripping storytelling.

Tite Kubo does an excellent job of balancing the high-stakes battles with moments that further develop the characters' relationships and motivations. In this volume, we see Ichigo growing stronger and more determined, revealing a side of him that is not just about raw power but also about his deep sense of loyalty and justice.

The tension between the members of the Soul Society is palpable, and the internal conflicts among them are just as compelling as the external battles. The dynamic between Renji and Byakuya, for instance, adds a layer of intrigue to the plot, while characters like Ganju and Hanataro provide comic relief and a different perspective on the world of the Soul Reapers.

Overall, Bleach Volume 14 is an engaging and enjoyable entry in the series. It propels the story forward. With its great pacing, memorable characters, and an ever-developing plot, this volume proves why Bleach remains a staple in the world of shonen manga.

Ichigo akhirnya bertemu dengan Rukia.

Kurotsuchi taicho memang menjijikan kok.

Lots of action, preparing to fight, fights, injuries etc.

I don't know why I get shocked that every single one of these volumes for Bleach ends on a cliffhanger, yet I do! Just wish these volumes were longer.

no me gusto este capitulo

This book was much better. The battle scenes were more flushed out and I could really tell what was going on in them. I can't wait to see Uryu's battle next!
