Spoiler:
Well, Ichigo's dad's obviously a captain. They haven't said much about him though. It seems that he helped out Urahara and was exiled with him however many years ago it was. I'm not sure of any hard evidence behind that, but I read it somewhere. If they've already pointed this out, then don't mind me. I'm brain dead today... I would like to know how he met Uryu's dad though. They'd have to be pretty old to have participated in the shinigami/quincy war, but hey...anything's possible at this point.


Man, there's a lot for me to say here. I'd like to tell Andro that I did in fact notice the glow around Ichigo a couple weeks ago. I really can't believe I didn't notice it. I do wonder the point for it though. Just to say that Ichigo's special? >_> Seems kind of random to me.

On Grimmjow:

Spoiler:
I really doubt he'll defect. It'd be a foolish move on his part. Like Lethal said, he'd just be crushed by Aizen.

Doesn't he have to babysit Orihime or something? I dunno, but I read somewhere that he and Ulquiorra take care of her or something.


The Captain-Commander:

Spoiler:
They are making him out to be a bit of an arse. my bet's on him dying pretty quick here and sending Soul Society into choas. That eliminates the once great superpower that held the balance between life and death in order. Well, actually, since there are enough hollows to make Aizen a threat, Soul Society wasn't doing their job very well. If their main duty is to help souls cross over, then why the heck don't they have people out there helping people cross over?! Whoever said it is right, Soul Socitey's pretty useless. I wonder what Tite will do with them, really. Aside from the six or so higher ranking shinigami that they've been focusing on, they don't need Soul Society in there at all.

I also don't really see a lot they can do with them in future to make them seem powerful again. It's as if they just...died...again.


Vizards:
Spoiler:
Haha, the show isn't any fun without characters who know stuff they shouldn't. It could be that they know things just so Tite has a way to inform us. I wouldn't get your hopes up for some amazing explaination, we might never know what they were like when they were a member of SS. But it'd be kind of cool. You can look at them and sort of figure out what divisions they'd belong in. I'm drawing a blank on their names atm, but if you guys see what I'm getting at, then we can start theroies, lol.

Personally, I've always liked Shinji. He reminds me of Gin in a way, except he's nice(er). He's pretty badass, too. He made me uncomfortable in the first episode, but I dunno...he's just one of those character's you get attached to. I admit that his hair and teeth are creepy though.

Moving onto another subject here:

Once Aizen falls, the show/manga's going to end isn't it? I just can't see Aizen being another diversion...I can't really seeing a repeat of the Soul Society arc...whoah, hang on...nevermind. Could it be possible, that like with Soul Society, they're going to find out that Aiizen's not evil? That it's really this great king who Aizen wants to get to? Perhaps, this whole time, we've been decieved by the faces of the shinigami...and Ichi's going to end up allying himself with the hollows...Mehehe...I think I think I think too hard...


And that's all for me today. I'd like to count up the posts this weekend, if that's at all possible. And Rasler, I'd like to use you this week since there are so many manga spoilers. That work for ya? Just let me know. There's a lot to count up, and we'll probably break it up into a couple days.
