Bleach 309 "Pray For the Mantis" spoilers and discussion

[phantomfork]

It's Shiva the Destroyer in his glory O_O

Oh yes, he's definately Shiva!

Also wouldn't his fraccion have missing body parts in
their Arrancar form if that happened I mean look at Droy his mask was still bitten in his Arr-form.

yeah, I was thinking about that too. It's just that one page in Grimm's flashback that had me confused for a long time, and this was the only explaination that would satisfy me.

Maybe their bite marks are hidden under their clothes or something. It would be a little conspicuous if they all had large bandages on their body. Actually, maybe not. O_o It could just look like part of a uniform.

Back on topic with the chapter: I can only suspect that Nnoitra is the most powerful Adjuca we have seen so far only because Nel has repeatedly called him an animal for acting on his instincts exclusively and because of his hierro. Until an actual confirmed VL shows up I can't guess as to what distinguishing physical differences set them apart from Adjuca. (in Hollow form)

This is my third favorite Arrancar release. Looks really sweet. Thanks for the spoilers!

[Shinrin]

Urgh... if that is his release then kubo has failed to iron out the inconsistency given when it is stated that Dordonii can't release because his blade is broken.

I think you made a mistake there.

Refine from telling all the truth won't necessary make you a lier.


Your makeing it seem far to easy to grasp, when actually it is more like reallity aka chaotic.


I like Nnoitra's release, and the horns make it all the better, best part however is thinking about someone fighting useing 4 scythes... damn... even though he got 4 arms that is way more sick then Zoro from OP 3 sword style.

[AnimeGirlPan]

Nnoitra having extra arms and four swords?
d**** now he reminds me of a mortal combat character

Maybe his release is like some type of horned praying mantis? It would fit with his tough skin and extra long body.

I cant tell what the second panel is supppose to be...?

I cant tell what the second panel is supppose to be...?

Nnoitra's chest

[Tomodachi69]

I cant tell what the second panel is supppose to be...?

Looks like the right side of Nnoi's chest that apparently got cut but healed.

I was worried about Nnoi's release, since all the other ones have been sort of lackluster. This looks freaking awesome, though, and I can't wait to see Kenpachi fight this bug / Indian god XD

Also, I assume Ichigo and Nel are healed already? I mean, 'Hime works pretty fast. Unless, while healing Nel, she heals not only her injuries from Noitora just a few minutes ago, but also whatever is keeping her from her adult form. We'll see in future chapters, but in any case, this chapter and the next few will (hopefully? XD) be epic.

Kenpachi's release, which I think he has, better be on par with Nnoi's or better xp

[KurosakiNaruto]

Nnoitra reminds me of Vishnu with the arms and the Cobra hood.

[smach]

y'know what, i think it'd be pretty cool if ogichi came out some time soon, like right now while the beasts are going at it...or when is he ever gonna teach ichigo all he needs to learn (ie ceros n hopefully some other new attack)?
