Royal Guards Arrive! Cage of Life – Bleach 600

Bleach 600 shows the potential of all Royal Guards in one place as all the Quincy’s are captured within the Cage of Life created by Kirio Hikifune, while Ichibei Hyosube hid the Royal Palace and created a fake surrounding for them. Senjumaru still live after the technique used by Ichibei to fake her death.

Bleach 600 begins as Lille Barro looks down at Senjumaru and how her head is literally blown off while Gerard Valkyrie shouts at him mentioning how Yhwach will walk past there and he’s going to have to clean it up. He asks help from Pernida helps him out by removing her from there. They mention that there doesn’t seem to be anyone from the Zero Division who didn’t die straight away.

Lille looks at the Palace and shoots them down, he then bows down to Yhwach as he mentions that everything has been cleared and can pass. However seconds later, everything around them begins to change, we also see Senjumaru on the side as she mentions that the Real Palace is hidden by Ichibei.

Ichibei realises that the fact that she gave it away means that the cage had made it in time, Lille shoots but a pole of wood covers it, to which we see Kirio Hikifune there, she mentions that it’s been a long time she’s made such a big confinement. They’re all covered with a cage of trees and the read intentions show as the curtains go away.

Lille tries to shoot however nothing happens, even if he hits on the space, the tree tries to get in the middle. Gerard laughs at him, while Kirio mentions that handling food is the same as handling life. She cooks to create life and produce the ingredients inside her.

She then shows on her hand a piece of twig with a fruit on it’s end, Lille is told that his bullets are made of reiatsu and thus the tree just eats it up and can eat much quicker. They can go as wild as they want, the Cage of Life will definitely keep them inside.

Next up Oetsu Nimaiya appears with his rap mentioning that he’s the number one Zanpakuto creator, he counts down to mention that slow fry can’t pass as he removes his own sword from a water bath he brought, he mentions for all of them to come at him together, the battle of the Zero Division begins here. Bleach 600 shows the beginning of the Royal Guard battle!

A great chapter with lots of awesome and crazy stuff, Nimaiya is awesome, he’s crazy and amazing. Plus the fact that they’re all still alive, although I’m not sure about Kirinji, they will definitely fight in an awesome way. Also Nimaiya and his sword will definitely cut someone. Can’t wait for next week’s Bleach 601!

          Well Yamamoto’s Zanpakuto is the most destructive Elemental Zanpakuto. Zaraki’s Zanpakuto is the most destructive Meele Zanpakuto, and Retsu’s Zanpakuto is the most destructive Kido Zanpakuto. But man I am expecting Oetsu’s Zanpakuto to be badass.

          Yup exactly, from what I see on the bleach wikia sternritter page, N is the only one that’s not been filled in yet. We’re missing a character for this letter. Maybe it’s his last one? Who knows, however at the moment it seems like an epic thing thats happening right now 😀

            This seems debatable to me. The first time Chapter 599 was released, Kubo called them Sternlighter. Not Sternritter. They all have a different uniform with a black six pronged star symbol. This is a group apart from the Sternritter. So N is technically the only letter left, but so is M, X, and C. And we have three Quincy that have yet to be lettered. Mr. Shirt and tie, Shaz Domino, and Mrs. Black eyes.

              Sternlighter was mentioned on the mangareader website, they get translations wrong at time, I saw that but disregarded it as mishap and just went with Stern Ritter. I usually trust mangastream with translations and names and such.

                Oh well that makes sense but I believe these four are not Sternritter. They used to be, but got promoted by Yhwach to be Sternlighter and his Elite Guard to kill the Royal Guard. Plus the uniform and symbol shows me they are a different group. Sternritter have a Trench coast with a colar and hood. The star pentagram on the back is the symbol of the Wandenreich. But these Quincy wear Trench coats with three right buttons up on each other and no colar. And they have a black six pronged star symbol on the left side if the uniform the same symbol used when Jugram formed the Key spell and created the six pronged star out of Reishi.

      Good match ups! I still think Yhwach has two more Sternlighter members left hiding. Or maybe three. Cause The Quincy always outnumber the Shinigami when it comes to Military. Gotei 13, like 18 or so Captain level Shinigami including Vice Captains. But Sternritter have 26 and counting.

        No doubt he has more people somewhere..but I think they might be down below or in hueco mundo somewhere..I think he legitimately brought these four with him..since the little symbol had six points..hascwalth was in the middle while ywhach and uryu were on one leaving four points available for Pernida and co..but the little scenario with Askin is suspicious.. Like I don’t get why he was saying does he have a choice..like its so fishy to me cause if that was the case of him getting chosen he should have stepped on that tower the minute ywhach gave Blondie and uryu that speech..it really feels like Askin and Blondie are planning something or Askin and Uryu but I think its B and D..those two are becoming shady to me.. The fact that Askin was being sarcastic about hikifunes trap..makes me think he knows they will lose to the RG

          For Askin he’s just surprised how strong Kirio’s trap is. It absorbs Reishi attacks which is all Quincy use. I believe Pernida can break this cage with Telekinesis. Its true the Jagdarmee are in Hueco Mundo. Look at it like this, Yhwach Jugram and Uryu show up and in counter Tenjiro. Than When Shutara comes, Nianzol shows up, than when he was killed, The Sternlighter show up. So if Ichibei, Kirio, and Oetsu show up shows me Yhwach will revel more Quincy to fight them. Not just these four.

      Seems like a good match up, however it seems like Nimaiya can take all of them at once which I find truly epic! One thing that I find weird is Pernida who still hasn’t shown his body or technique. It seems like he could use it without moving his body.

              That’s a goodnight. I’ve seen it many times and have seen it in Bleach. I have never done that and never will. I respect women too much. I mean I was raised only by my mom and my two older sisters.

              Examples I have seen are with Mashiro, Hiyori, and Lisa. Sense they were Vice Captains 112 years ago, some people assume they are still at that level, even though they have proven to be Captain level Visord. Another is Harribel. Some Made Treads That Say Ulquiorra is stronger than her and one time I saw that Grimmjow was stronger. Which is complete poo cause Ulquiorra said himself Stark, Barragon, and Harribel are much stronger than him. Than again with Yoruichi And Byakuya. Some think he is stronger than her which again is poo. Than again with Unohana being compared to Aizen, Kisuke, and even Yamamoto. We all know she’s Mich stronger than Aizen and Kisuke, only Yamamoto can really match her power. Than again with Rukia and Renji. Even though she killed As Nodt, a very strong Sternritter, with her unmastered, Bleach Wiki still has yet to put Great Spiritual Power for her abilities and powers section. Same with the Visord women. And again with Liltotto’s crew. We have seen all four of them fight but Bleach Wiki has yet to give them Lloyd Great Spiritual Power, but all other Sternritter except Gueanel Lee. They did for Bambietta, I assume it’s because they haven’t stolen Bankai, but Pepe and NaNaNa haven’t yet they both have Great Spiritual Power? Hope ya’ll see my point :/

    Uryu as “The Archangel”would be fucking amazing…but if “A” was 2 be Juha (ywhach)Bach I’d have 2 go with “The Ass”…OK all jokes aside .very good chapter. Tho I’m not shocked I’m very happy Shutara survived.She’s by far one of my favorite female bleach characters along with Yoruichi,Soi con & the fallen Bambietta..(Still Royally pissed off at what that zombie bitch giselle did 2 her) but you guys are absolutely correct in saying females in anime don’t get the credit or respect they deserve…well maybe sakura gets a bit more than she deserves . So with Ichigo & co. Being shot cannon style back 2 the soul palace does that mean Byakuya,Renji,Rukia,Zaraki ect. & the missing Yachiru as well as the remaining SR have no way of accessing the Soul palace therefore are out of the appending final battle? I will say my faith in the Zero squad is restored ..well I’m still kinda concerned with kirinji. It I very unsettling seeing calm ywhach is but the immense power he’s hiding will only be matched & overcome by the power Ichigo is hiding. I’m really hoping and counting on seeing something like Uraharas Bankai when he arrives..I bet its epic. On a final sad note (Bleach anime episode 364 was last week & the fight between Ichigo & Ginjo is going down which mean only 2 episodes remain till the anime ends 😦 unless of course theres plans of it being renewed? I really hope so..this final arc would be so fuckin sweet in anime. Later everyone

    I no this is a troll and u will forgive me for it but somehow I can’t shake the feeling that yamamoto’s bankai has some kind of Phoenix abilities. What I don’t understand is why kubo of all this years finally revealed yamamoto’s bankai and then kill him off? Isn’t he supposed to be invincible at that state? Plus the fact that his zanpakutou is the only one left at the hands of the Quincies makes ME wonder more.

    For me there are 3 possibilities here, 1 yamamoto and yhwach made a plan long time ago to invide the soul palace and take down the soul king together since yamamoto and yhwach are the oldest and the strongest soul reaper and Quincy to ever lived, with soul king being the only the oldest of them all.

    2. Yhwach stole yamamoto’s bankai just for the obvious reasons, which is to use it for himself when the goin gets tougher.

    3Or yamamoto intentionally allowed himself get killed easily so he can come back later on to take revenge on Yhwach himself. Afterall his bankai did have the ability to resurrect all the people it cut down. And forgive me for the troll

      That’s a possibility. Yamamoto’s Bankai is made from the flames of the sun. He said the more he uses it, he can destroy the Soul Society, his enemies, and himself. His Zanpakuto can’t revive him, Riyun Jakka is just an immensely destructive Zanpakuto. Now Unohana’s Zanpakuto Minazuki is different. We have yet to see what it can do and how powerful it is. Yhwach was almost killed by Yamamoto before. But Kubo killed him off to foreshadow what happened 1000 years ago when the Shinigami vs Quincy happened.

        Yamamoto grew old and his peak was way before him. Even with such an immense zanpakuto,his body wasn’t able to defend against the real Yhwach when his attack truly came. I guess after the 1000 year wait, it had to be Yhwach’s victory as he’s gotten a lot further than before. He’s planned everything. And yeah agreed with Nick 🙂

And it’s safe to say Gerade, Lille, and Pernida were the original Sternritter M, X, and C 1000 years ago during the first 1000 year blood war. Hell they probably created the Wandenreich using the Reishi Shadow from the Soul Society. And I bet they’re are more members that we have yet to see. Same with the Jagdarmee. Quilge Opie was the Executive Hunting Captain of the 1st Jagdarmee. That tells me there are more Quincy that are Captains of the Jagdarmee and have letters. But Qulige was the only one that was also a Sternritter. Sense there is no Sternritter J.

He wanted to be god, he wanted to see the Soul Palace. But yet he could never do that. Yet Yhwach did it so easily and it’s pretty obvious he’s been there before. I do believe the Shinigami were the ones that started the first 1000 Year Blood war. Yamamoto killed so many Quincy, Shinigami, and Humans 1000 years ago Yhwach feared him and Unohana for that very reason. But after seeing such blood, death, and destruction, the Shinigami had something they wanted to protect. And the roles reversed. Now the Quincy are blood thirsty killers. I do believe Yhwach is the son of the Soul King. I also believe Orihime is connected to the Soul King and his family as well. I never understood why her parents feared her so much they abused her. I wondered why. I believe when Orihime comes to the Soul Palace and See Yhwach. Some of that will be explained. I bet she is a special war potential as well. That’s just my opinion. With Kisuke he’s obviously hiding a lot of things. For one thing hiw did he create a vaccine with a Shinigami’s Soul and a Quincy’s Heilig Pfeil?? It’s safe to say he killed and experimented on many Quincy during the Quincy Massacre. Hell even Ginjou said Kisuke has a lot of secrets and he shouldn’t be trusted. I know Ginjou knows him, Isshin, and Masaki.

    I think orihime is a lot closer to the soul king than we think…her story will be told soon.. And urahara makes me think he will actually be the final villain…yea soul king will be a villain but I think they will find out someone is pulling some strings that they never would have guessed.. I don’t see Urahara as a good guy he’s way too shady for my taste..hell all of them are up to something.. Where the hell is Tessai cause I don’t believe he’s been spending his time at that shop..but we’ll see

      I believe Tessai should have been helping Hachi, Hiyori, Love, and Riza gather the energy that was there when the Quincy began the unbalanced again when the Wandenreich took over Hueco Mundo.

          Guess they had other plans? ? Again who specifically didn’t come to Yamamoto’s funeral? Cause I thought all the Captains came to his office and saw his Zanpakuto was only left. Than Shunsui cheered them up. I believe Mayuri wasn’t there. Was Unohana there?

            The fact that kubo hasn’t showed us their zanpkatous or explained whatever the hell he meant by the royal families have special items…or even how they actually got banished or why did they leave..but the only big clue for me is what aizen said to Urahara about “it” and I believe yoruichi and tessai are in on it..he probably tells yoruichi everything..so we’ll see who’s actually the evil ones..and I believe mayuri is evil in his own right..little piece of me thinks he actually cares about the shinigami but I’ll just wait until this RG fiasco is over with

              Ya we’ll see how that goes. I want to see Yoruichi use her Shikai soon. And Tessai too. Kubo will show us they’re Quincy rivals soon.

    I’ve never fully trusted Urahara & him being the “end boss” would be jus tha kinda twist I’m dying 4. One thing that really bothers me..going back is how Aizen played a major role in Ichigo’s creation….what if (& I’m going waay out on a fuckin reach here) but wouldn’t it jus be an awesome twist if “Pernida”was jus a sternritter/stern lighter given name & is actually Yoruichi

      Meh I doubt that. If anything it would be more of a twist when Aizen returns, Kubo has one of the Elite Guard kill him. Like Pernida or Askin 🙂

      Who’s? Yoruichi? Well for one thing she’s The Flash Goddess. No one can catch her cause she is so fast. That’s why she didn’t have central 46 use the banish Kido on her like they did Kisuke and Tessai. Not even Sui-Feng and Byakuya can catch her. Only Kisuke can. When he runs super fast, but she is still faster. Hey I think Tenjiro is the same speed as her. He’s so fast it’s crazy. Flash Goddess vs Lightning Fast 🙂

    Chapter 601 was okay. My only thoughts are that Gerade, Lille, and Pernida are not dead. Not even close. If Askin can survive having his face cut by Oetsu’s Zanpakuto, than they are alive too.

      Yup its true it seems Oetsu is the strongest of the Royal Guard. In my opinion, the 2nd strongest is Shutara, than Ichibue, than Kirio, and Tenjiro is the weakest. I don’t believe any of them are dead or defeated.

    I think ichibue and hikifune are stronger than shutara..whatever ability she does have I don’t think it would affect ichibue and hikifune with that life ability is pretty crazy I bet she can insta heal by eating but O believe Askins ability is Karma based..and what he said about “when his bigness found me I wasn’t dead” made me think that all the sternritters we seen are actually dead and he’s still alive along with Uryu of course

      That’s a possibility. That’s just my opinion about Shutara. Remember the Sternritter are all human. When the die, instead of there souls going to the Soul Society like other human souls like the Fullbringers did, they’re souls go to Yhwach. I personally believe The Deathdealing means if Askin dies, he’ll come back and do something. He said he hates that ability. I think Giselle is the only Quincy that’s dead and not alive.

    I personally don’t see Shutara being that strong very tricky and fast yea but not that super OP..and I know quincies are humans but what Askin said would have no point really if that was the case..I’m starting to think some of these people are alive but others are really dead..BG9 is not human, Jerome looks like a hybrid that isnt really human, Gremmy was a brain, Ryod/Lloyd yea they look like humans but no human has a third eye, As Most looks dead already, Gigi I’d dead already, and we have Pernida that does not look human..and what you said is like karma..if you do something you will receive whatever punishment afterwards..anyway I wonder if we will see the sternritters in soul society..I’m looking forward to see what the femritters are doing but more importantly if meni, candy,Nana, and shirt&tie are dead..wonder if Gigi will cause a second zombie invasion

        That actually makes sense. No Wonder He Hates Fighting. Your right, his case is the same with BG9, Giselle, Gremmy, and Jerome. Probably Pernida too. As for Shutara. She’s actually very fast. Her skill in Shunpo allows her to go get Rukia, Renji, and Byakuya from the 4th Division and than get Ichigo’s broken Bankai from the 12th Division and came back to the group for Captains and Royal Guard in a matter of seconds. She also appeared right next to Yhwach when he took a step up. She’s very fast. And her Zanpakuto ability to manipulate cloth is badass. I mean that fake palace and her clone looked so real.

            True we haven’t seen those to fight yet. But we will eventually. Same with Liltotto’s crew. They are not dead and will fight in the upcoming 3rd Invasion and fight they’re respective Shinigami or Visord Rivals. So far only Giselle has a rival. But what’s bad writing is killing off these Elite Guard like this. Why introduce a new group that’s way stronger than the previous group and just kill them off?? That’s stupid. So no Gerade, Lille, and Pernida are not dead.

              I agree he has been bad with all of the off paneling as well..don’t get it at all but I think it was to show us that oetsu ain’t no joke or none of the RG will sit around and talk to you while fighting…its like right to the point..but I doubt their dead..if you look Pernida did something which looked like she forcefully moved her brain out of the way before oetsu threw that sword? so she/he is likely got a normal wound not fatal, whatever Gerards “Miracle” does probably allows him get up after taking a fatal blow like a “miraculous recover”, Lille is the only one I’m not sure of but maybe we haven’t seen all of his ability he still has his eye closed so maybe since he was slashed diagnolly maybe he can reverse it to being a horizontal slash..but I don’t think he’s out yet..but I do feel like oetsu has not even shown anything so its more of a quick “We’re not going to play around with you little bitches anymore”

                That makes sense. Agree about Gerade. Pernida It Seems She Was Saying Rua… Than she got attacked. But she’s not done. Neither is the other ones. Its like when Gerade attacked Shutara, he broke her Shikai but she’s fine. When though that’s a clone. And Nianzol was completely redirecting Tenjiro’s attacks. So I bet the next chapter will show them all getting serious.

    I don’t think so. I think if Askin can heal people he will heal Gerade, Lille, and Pernida. And than they will get serious. If The Deathdealing is a product with Blood, what if it’s similar to The Zombie? His blood is his weapon and he can heal people with his blood like Giselle can. If they want to escape the Cage of Life, I believe Pernida can. The Compulsory seems like a telekinetic ability and she can Jedi Force the Cage apart. Sense Oetsu us under the Deathdealing control, It seems Askin will fight Oetsu. Or disable him for the moment than that leaves an even number of Royal Guard vs Elite Guard
