We’ve waited almost 3 weeks now and its nearly time for Bleach 480 to be released. This post will combine most important things from the earlier chapters which you may have forgotten from the three-week wait. I have terribly missed Bleach Manga as it was absent but something that had fed that hole was Naruto Manga, some crazy things have happened there.

So if you’ve read Bleach manga, you would have remembered that Ichigo’s Fullbring had been stolen by Kugo Ginjo himself. This power was then shared out within the Xcution crew. They all had transformed into their Fullbring Form. At this point, Ichigo was stabbed by Rukia with a special sword which had a storage of captain level spiritual pressure from Zaraki, Byakuya, Renji, Rukia and more.

Ichigo was stabbed right in the heart, which meant all the powers had now transferred to him. This meant that Ichigo had instantaneously gained his Shinigami powers back. This time he had looked insanely powerful. The battle began between Ichigo and Ginjo. It all went down as both Ginjo and Ichigo had opened their Bankai.

Renji’s opponent was Jackie Tristan, she lost but still lives. Yukio faced Toshiro and lost, he still lives. Zaraki had a quick match against Giriko, he had died. Tsukishima faced Byakuya, they had an interesting match, he still lives. Moe who faced Madarame lost but still lives. Riruka challenged Rukia, she still lives and still has her Fullbring abilities. And lastly Ginjo faced Ichigo, they both had a fantastic fight, Ginjo died happy while Ichigo lived.

Tsukishima was very angry with his death as he was Ginjo’s apprentice, he looked up to Ginjo. Tsukishima tried to stab Ichigo was Riruka came in the middle to remind Tsukishima that Ginjo had died happy as it was Ichigo who gave him happiness. Injured Riruka was taken back to Urahara’s to recover until she escaped.

Ichigo quickly went to Soul Society to get Ginjo’s body back so he could have a proper burial. As seen in the image above, Ichigo meets most of the captains with the addition of Shinji, Kensei and Rose (Rojuro Otoribashi) as possible new captains. Ichigo confronts Yamamoto to ask his permission for his body to return to the real world.

After all that, you’ve finally caught up from just a few chapters back. Ichigo has really gained some balls to actually go up to Yamamoto to ask him this. Furthermore the episode will release on the 8th February, and once it’s released I’ll be telling you guys all about it. If I’ve missed anything important from this please do tell me by commenting on this post.
