Bleach Chapter 352

[loolaa]

Bleach is finally getting interesting again and surprisingly it's during the Ichigo/Ulquiorra fight. I had a few 'woah' moments during this chapter. Haven't felt like that since Rangiku was injured months ago (omg HOW is she doing...? :(
As soon as I saw Rukia I realised just how much I'd missed her. It was so nice to see her and that she was holding up and kicking Rudobon's butt. Though I wasn't all that happy to see Yammy. The guy pisses me off. I don't understand why he isn't dead yet. Far more interesting Arrancar have died before him. Still I'm hoping, and it propbably will happen, that Chad gets to kick his butt in return for the beating Yammy gave him when he first showed up.
Still, Yammy's opening scene was pretty impressive:



I was pleased to see Renji too, my fave out of the 'nakama group'. I was wondering when we'd get to see these three again.


My favourite bits though were 1. Uryuu. OMG. He's been so amazing in the last few chapters, such a hero. He really stood out in this chapter too, trying to protect Ichigo's humanity. Whatever humanity Ichigo has left anyway.



I was gutted when Ichigo stabbed him. It was bad enough a couple of chapters ago when he had his hand cut off. Poor Uryu's going through the wringer at the moment.

And 2. Orihime surprisingly, not because she's finally stood on her own two feet and taken responsibility for her own safety, but because she seems to be finally realising that she needs to. And she's realised that it was because she called out to Ichigo that he became this new Hollow thing.



I'm hoping the boring 'Hueco Mundo Orihime' that has pissed me off over the last god know how many chapters is going to become a likable character again. I miss her quirky humour so much.

But man, when Ichigo eventually becomes himself again, he's gonna be even more angsty knowing what he's become. Knowing that he's almost killed Uryu. I kind of miss bratty Ichigo from way back. Cocky, bratty Ichigo always entertained me.
