I switched to Opera now, and this blog is looking win. You were able to change the look of the date and title; great job man!

This blog is looking crazy. It's staying for good right?

Ain't Wonderweiss a vast lord?

The espada have flopped so hard. Indeed Yammy is still alive but since Aizen has already written off the entire espada his chapters are numbered. He would've been better off dying a death by falling down a flight of stairs in heuco mundo...if he hurries up that can still happen!

Aizen is awesome. It doesn't feel like he's overconfident; he just seems to be perfectly prepared like he has everything planned out. I still can't guess as to what he's trying to do...all I recall him saying is assembling vast lords and reaching the king of soul society.

Kensei will kick ass. I can't quite see why Mashiro's mask broke against Wonderweiss when she's supposed to be able to wear it for 15 hours but it was clear to me that she couldn't finish the job in short time. Wonderweiss is resilient and I think he will take a good hiding from Kensei, I just hope we'll be able to see a more savage Wonderweiss in #377.

Director Fire Dragon is really just one of Yuri's servants? That sucks quite a bit don't you think? I don't like how characters like him end up cos in the end they're just a means to an end in the eyes of the person they serve.

I also think that Yuhwa is part of the council. It makes sense seeing as she wanted to approach Paul who is working alongside Fire Dragon. She didn't take many steps to reprimand Muyoung after he disposed of him.

It would be good to see how Jeeha fights finally. Seeing as Rud didn't disappoint I expect good things.

With regard to the Yuri and Vera relationship: I wonder if there will be anything special about it. So far it seems like Yuri neglected and suppressed her sister so that she could stay at the top. Perhaps all of Yuri's behaviour towards her sister is closely related to the ritual she tried to perform to sync her ki with nature...hmmm. Yuri seems like a self-centred megalomaniac at this moment in time. I can't see a redeeming quality in her yet and I prefer Vera's way playing a leading role. Gangryong is in very dangerous place right now lol.

Yea she's always been capable of transforming. She can also transform parts of her body. When she fought against the generals during the Order invasion arc she was transforming into otherworldly creatures.

Ah man...DGM DGM...Hoshino needs to save this manga from the depths of hell. It was once brilliant and I think it can be again but the loose ends and lack of continuity need to be addressed thoroughly. I also question Bass, why the Noah are wearing some stupid constumes. What's the need for this and will it be explained? They should definitely go back to suits and formal wear cos these popstar costumes suck!

I wonder why Lulubell chooses to be in animal form when she looks so good as a human. The 13th Noah called Mightra reminded me a bit of the 7th Espada from Bleach. I hope he/she isn't as awful. And Wisely is the 5th Noah. He isn't Skin's replacement. In fact, the earl says that they are to search for Skin's replacement. Wisely is 5th and appears to be the last of the Noah to be reincarnated in this generation. The 14th killed the Noahs 35 years back and Wisely has only just been reincarnated.

The excess level of blood and gore is a plus though for me, the third exorcists are currently lacklustre. I'm quite eager to see the benefit of their power in action. The alma matter stuff is currently confusing me but I'm hoping 188 can clear up some of this confusion.

The earl's human form has a bizarre look. Seeing him reminded me of Mana (a guy whose real face we've not even seen yet). When we saw his silhouette back in chapter 158 I thought he'd look a lot more hard and sinister. He isn't looking so tough at this moment in time. I wonder what he is going to do with this invasion...though I have to say, it's awesome that he is coming with just Road. And as she is just looking like a doll it makes him look even more badass cos he looks like he is doing it all on his own haha!

My last words on this chapter: Wisely is killer; so many of the Noah family are male; it's good to know more about the nature of the Noah memories; Tyki you look too bishi; Lulubell turn back into a human; Skinn, I hope you get a worthy replacement!

I really, really, really hope that one day, somehow, DGM can feature in the weekly magazine. Please Hoshino....lol!
