Tsukishima “From Today Onwards, You’re Coming With Me” – Bleach 477

This weeks Bleach 477 ended with an emotional image of Ginjo telling Tsukishima “From Today Onwards, You’re Coming With Me”.

This image was brought forward when Ginjo died by Ichigo’s new Bankai, and thus Tsukishima was willing to make Ichigo pay for what he had done. Riruka opened Tsukishima’s eyes to what Ichigo had done, Riruka mentioned that Ichigo had saved Ginjo.

At a very young age, as the image suggests, Tsukishima met Ginjo near the tree. As far as we know, Ginjo tells Tsukishima “Is that right?”, “Then you’re like me then.”. From this point on, I’m guessing that Tsukishima was thought how to fight and hold a sword by the hands of Ginjo.

This built their relationship but was never told again. Before Ginjo’s death, Tsukishima never had the chance to tell Ginjo that he looked up to him as a mentor and a friend. A past that could not be severed, and a bond that could not be saved.

Hopefully Bleach 478 will tell us more about their past, however I don’t want to see the whole chapter going into telling their past, but in fact for half to go into their past and half to go to the current storyline.

Kugo Ginjo Killed by Ichigo – Bleach 477

What a fantastic chapter! Ichigo kills Ginjo with his deadly strike which snaps Ginjo’s sword. During Ginjo’s last moments, he wonder if Ichigo and Ginjo were reversed. What different would that have made?

During last weeks chapter, Ichigo strikes him in the chest with his very powerful new sword. You can read about it here.

So during today’s Bleach 477 chapter, Ichigo and Ginjo keep fighting, even when Ginjo is in a disadvantage with the massive cut he just got from Ichigo. Both keep fighting to their full potential. As Ginjo becomes weaker, he finds out that his sword suddenly snaps, within that instant, Ginjo looses hope, he gives up and rests below on the ground.

“Ichigo… If the order we arrived was reverse, i wonder, would our positions be reversed as well?, would you be like me?, say Ichigo, if we were reversed, if we were, would we…?”, says Ginjo during his last moment. I’m pretty sure that he was going to end that sentence with, “would we be friends?”.

At this quick moment, Ichigo is attacked by Tsukishima, we saw his death, but no body was found. As Ichigo turns around, Rukia’s body, or to be exact, Riruka gets in the way. Her chest glows, as it opens, Riruka comes out. During this fast passed moment, Tsukishima strikes and see’s that he’s attacked Riruka with his real sword instead of his “Special Sword”, “This is the one that actually kills people!” she says.

Tsukishima insists on Riruka to move from her place so he can kill Ichigo. “Dont die, Ginjo!” Tsukishima shouts. Riruka replies, “Get it through your head already,Ginjo saved us. But the person who saved Ginjo is Ichigo…!”. As she says that, Tsukishima is shocked while Ichigo gives us the, I care but I don’t care look.

At the last moment, we see Tsukishima being saved by Ginjo. We see Ginjo smile and make Tsukishima happy. Ginjo takes Tsukishima under his wing, “From today onwards, you’re coming with me.”

What an amazing chapter! That was a little emotional, how Tsukishima cared for Ginjo even thought he wasn’t able to show it. It’s like the relationship between Meo and Tsukishima, Moe looks up to him, however Tsukishima doesn’t care. A past that could not be severed, and a bond that could not be saved! Great chapter deserves another great chapter! Read next week’s Bleach 478!

Ichigo’s Bankai vs. Ginjo’s Bankai – Bleach 476

In today’s Bleach 476, Ichigo and Ginjo both fight it out since Ichigo has made his mind up that he has to defeat Ginjo to prevent his friends and family from getting hurt.

I have to say that I thought Ichigo was a little dumb and seemed a little unresponsive with his thoughts at times, but from last weeks Bleach 475 manga chapter as well as this Bleach 476, I think that over time, Ichigo has really developed and can stand by himself to defeat his foes. Views last weeks manga here.

So in this Bleach 476 manga, Ichigo reminds himself that Kugo Ginjo was a Substitute Shinigami just like Ichigo is now. Ginjo doesn’t hesitate on revealing that “All of us have parents who were attacked by hollows before we were born.”, this means, “I’ve got some Hollow in me, same as you!”. After this shocking moment, which I knew was coming, I was blown away! Just thinking about how Ginjo’s Hollow Mask would look like would have endless possibilities! Comment below on how you guys think it might look like.

As Ichigo just acknowledges that Ginjo has Hollow Powers, he whips his sword to warn Ginjo that he has gotten a lot stronger from last time. “Bring it on, Ginjo. We’re Ending This.” Says Ichigo as he wants to end this fight with Ginjo. As they both go to attack each other, It’s resembles the fight between Ichigo and Aizen. Ginjo shouts “You Brat!!!”, just like Aizen. They Clash! and Bleach 476 “The Lost” begins!

As the fight progresses between Ichigo and Ginjo, we see Ichigo stays calm while Ginjo shouts at every possible moment. When Ginjo sends one of his more powerful attacks at Ichigo, we notice that Ichigo catches his attack just like Aizen’s attack on Ichigo during the other Arc.

At that moment, we see that Ichigo’s speed has increased as Ichigo quickly ends Ginjo’s streak. Ichigo strikes on Ginjo. “The Battle’s End!?” is what is stated on that page. But I’m pretty sure that Ginjo is still not dead, since he still has to release his Hollow Mask!

A great end to another fantastic manga. However next week’s Bleach 477 Manga Chapter will be the one to read! I definitely can’t wait!
