#Bleach bount arc

[seafea-the-kity]

> Virgin Filler:

"We'll only have this be like, five episodes tops. We won't really even try or anything. Just to give the mangaka enough time to get further ahead of us."

> Chad Bleach Filler:

"So how's that filler arc coming? We need to let Tite Kudo get further ahead after concluding the Soul Socity arc."

"We've got an entire filler arc in the works."

"Oh cool, so like, ten episodes?"

"It's going to be longer than the entire Soul Socity Arc."

"Wtf"

"And we're introducing three new allied characters that will have close relationships with the main cast."

"Ok, but you'll write them out, right?"

"No. They'll be around for the rest of the series."

"Wtf? Ok, but you'll like shove them in Urahara's shop or somewhere were they won't appear often, right?"

"Yes."

"Oh thank god..."

"Expect for one, who will live in Ichigo's room with Kon."

"Wtf?!"

"And she'll take part in one of the first major scenes of the canon arc."

"WTF?!?!"

I know Bount arc is not canon and this scenario is kinda corny and hyperbolic, buuuuuuuut :

Would be funny if some Sternritters (or absolutely peak comedy if Elite Guards [minus Pernida because we all know why]) are being assigned by Yhwach to protect Ishida from the Bounts and also revealing much earlier that he's his future successor (ofc could lead to Canon Divergence), thus Ishida getting the Damsel in Distress Princess treatment and adding much much more chaos into the Soul Society vs Bounts conflict

The Bount Arc features many things and one of them is a rare glimpse of a place I had previously assumed didn't even exist: The Squad 11 Captain's Office.

As I said, I generally refuse to believe that Zaraki maintains any sort of "administrative space"--I think Yumichika does all the squad paperwork on a Formica, diner-style table that somehow died and got sent to Soul Society in the "officer's lounge", which has orange shag carpeting and smells mysteriously like Miller High Life (the Champagne of Beers).

Even so, this place is beyond my wildest imaginings. The pink walls? The elegant, arcing windows, spilling natural light into the room? It's hard to tell from this shot, but the chairs are purple:

The couches look oddly like the Squad 6 couches, but they are not--the Squad 6 couches are wingbacks and don't have that wooden frame along the back and sides, and they have legs so they are up off the floor. Also, Zaraki has a very similar mysterious paperwork tray-table to the one Ginrei had in the Zanpakutou Rebellion arc. Zaraki's seems taller. Also, why is there actual paperwork on it???

I can only come up with two possible explanations for this:

Squad 11 has a Captain's Office, but Zaraki never uses it, so he let Yachiru make all the decor decisions. This would explain the pink walls, and we know she likes Byakuya's house, so maybe she cribbed the rest from him. Possibly even stole the furniture out of the dumpster the last time Squad 6 redecorated (which I assume happens, like, twice yearly)

This isn't even their office. They're just squatting in Byakuya's digs while he's out running around in Rukongai.

Update!!: A few episodes later, they were still sitting here (over the same time period that Renji, Matsumoto and Hitsugaya ran from the Seireitei to Kusajishi, for the record) and it was identified as Squad 11, so I guess option 1 is the winner!

Uryu being the softest cutie pie in this world makes me so weak. It's like, come here, let me protect you from all the bad things in this world.

Clash! Kenpachi Zaraki vs. Maki Ichinose

[mey-rin-is-fabulous]

I think a Bleach spin off of Hitsugaya and his dads would be great.

this arc is a gift to me personally

“It doesn’t matter what kind of fish it is!”

This scene is so important to me:

[Bleach e86]

Matsumoto has an actual, canonically-stated limit to the amount of Shenanigan she can take, and these three found it. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

“A whale?”

“A shark?”

“It looked like a rockfish.”

“It doesn’t matter what kind of fish it is!”

[memethebum]

No bc sometimes I think about this Bleach filler and can just imagine all the Studio Pierrot directors frantically searching for how they can add to the ichiruki agenda and then being like “wait wait guys have we looked at other shonen love interests” fjdjsks

[precautionarypeapod]

I just had to talk about the trial of Young Thug. I know next to nothing about him and as far as I read he's on trial for organizing a gang. Well another person in this case also has a lawyer who went up to defend her client and I can't believe what this lady says.

She LITERALLY starts to say her client has nothing to do with this by equating him to ANIME FILLERS. Specifically the Bount Arc from Bleach.

This is probably the strangest arguement made in any trial I have ever heard. And what does it say about the Bount Arc that someone who passed the BAR finds a way to equate "Having nothing to do with this" to how not related and not important to the story of Bleach as the fucking Bount Arc?

Wild.

In whatever AU Fear No Evil takes place in, the Bount were such a threat to Shinigami that the only option the council had was to call a truce. After a thousand years of continuous war.

The Bount have reishi that is toxic to Shinigami. The Bount really fuck up the balance of souls with the way they eat souls from most other species. Most importantly, The Bount do not file back into the spirit cycle when they die. Their fractured, worn out souls simply disperse when the body they're attached to dies.

The main threat to the Bount were the Quincy, but thanks to the Gotei 13 that's not much of a problem for them anymore.
