Bleach Chapter 461

Ehh......all I can say. Ginjou's outfit is pretty neat though.

Duh, it was no surprise about Ginjou's identity as the first substitute shinigami - he was holding the shinigami badge when he first appear.

Yep. Definitely a re-hash of the yu yu hakusho Chapter Black Saga: humans with unusual powers appear out of the woodwork, a bad guy that held the same title as the main character before, the closest confidant to the main antagonist is an effeminite-looking man, and the other characters watching from afar since its a battle that only those two can settle just because.

how did it end? I wonder if Ichigo will get the powers that Ginjou back.

Sigh so very true, if only this foreshadowing was more cleverly done. I'm sorry did Ichigo just say he missed with his slash last chapter. He has failed on so many levels in such a short amount of chapters, guess just running your sword through someone doesn't work in Bleach world. Instead you create an energy blast with your sword and throw at them.

Ah, Yu Yu Hakusho! Great Anime & Manga! Don´t really remember that arc though! Still, shame on Kubo for copying it

Yusuke was killed by Sensui, but was brought back to life/reborn as a demon due to a genetic trait from his demonic ancestor centuries ago that finally awakened due to his training in using spirit energy. Him and Sensui squared off again and were even until Yusuke's ancestor took over his ancestor took over his body and pretty much slaughtered Sensui who was already dying before the saga began due to a disease he contracted.

During Yusuke's rematch, Sensui switched between using his powers as a balance between defense and offense to purely being offense due to the increased power Yusuke received, which, looking at the last page of this chapter with Ginjou possessing armor similar to Ichigo's fullbring, seems rather similar to that arc of YYH.

I do not at all see this being anywhere near Yu Yu Hakusho. Mention any similarity again and I'll revoke your manga pass.
jokes.

Just don't mention it though cause it makes me wanna cry when I think that YYH's name is being dirtied in anyway

even through a low caliber manga somehow being compared to IT

So I'm assuming Ginjou is eventually going to become a hollow-like monstrosity. Taking in account of Bleach law (there will be no such thing as logic used, you will observe the villains transformations, and Ichigo needs to face something hollow-themed to go all out), it must happen. Ginjou seems to have failed/not have the ability to regain his former shinigami powers, and, if the explanation that fullbrings are derived from hollow reiatsu, then Ginjou should currently be at a surplus, and ultimately an instability, of hollow reiatsu. He has two or more fullbrings within his possession(with the latter being more likely, since it is easily assumed that he killed the last group of fullbringers, whilst absorbing their powers). I figure when he exhausts his own personal reiatsu while fighting Ichigo, he will either attack the fullbringers that are there, extracting their powers as well (however not killing them, nobody good dies in Bleach, only Tsuki can die), or just lose control on the spot. Ginjou goes into rage mode, Ichigo goes bankai, takes a dump on Butter-Ginjou, fullbringers are free from their "accursed" powers, everyone's happy, the end, onto the (hopeful) final arc.

While I probably am over-analyzing to a gross extent, this is just what's on my mind.
