A.D.D. (Bleach 427 and rantings)

Sorry about the late post folks, but you know how it goes. School and work always get in the way of having fun. :-/

Anywho, enough about boring shit, let's talk about our favorite strawberry superstar.

Haven't read 427 yet? Well stop now, and click here.
No, not Inoue. Well, sort of. In the latest chapter, we enter to find Inoue chasing after the rumors swirling around Ichigo's sudden disappearance at from the school grounds. Ishida calms her, saying that is was only his boss, when Inoue points out that she's felt some strange aura surrounding crimson Shinigami. Odd seeing a Ichigo should have any reiatsu remaining . . .

(Writer's note: So yeah, it looks like everyone is gonna start noticing the return of Kurosaki's reiatsu soon. I mean if Inoue & Ishida can sense it, I'm sure Isshin has too. Speaking of, I'm interested to see where this next chapter is going, but we'll get to that soon enough)

Ishida plays it cool and shrugs off the idea as Inoue rushes off to work (I guess she working at a bakery now, given the art for the title.). Meanwhile at the batcave, I mean Ikumi's shop, the Unnamed Stranger finally spills his unusual request: he want to investigate Isshin Kurosaki.

Now I figured we were going to get some background info in Isshin soon but not like this. Also U.S. is creepy as shit. He's pretty much stalking Ichigo, carrys around ramen for no reason and kinda reminds me a of young Aizen.

Creepy . . .

Anyway we take a break from the intensity at Ikami's to check on the young baseball ace, Jinta. Looks like he's grown a bit and decided to take on the "Wooden Sword" Ryu look. Suits him well actually, since they are both worthless pricks with just enough of a redeeming value to them for you to like them. But only a little. Ururu done some growing up too, and it looks like she might be in school (note the outfit she's wearing). Tessai also shows to beat the crap out of Jinta, who is harassing some school boys. I sure hope we see Genocide mode again soon.

Soon after, someone come by looking for Urahara. It's Karin! WTF? Ichigo mentioned that he powers had started to mature, but is she really wanting to train with Urahara? Or is she just looking of answers? I hope it's the later, 'cause I'm not sure if the world is ready for three Kurosaki warriors.

So yeah, not a bad chapter, all in all. I'd give it an 8/10. Didn't see the whole Kiren thing coming (should have, since Kubo REALLY fond of foreshadowing), but it could lead to an interest side-plot. What I'm more interested in is what Isshin is hiding from Ichigo. We've always know that many to be a quagmire of mystery, so watching Ichigo dive in will be a welcome way to spend the next few chapters. My predictions? Either a) Isshin knows about Ichigo's returning powers, which stem from his bloodline (Which means we will finally lean some more about Masaki; maybe she is was a Shinigami as well, but I have the feeling that she might be much more than just that. It seems to me that she could sense reiatsu at eh very least, given that she was able to protect Ichigo form Grand Fisher.) or b) he's partial responsible for Masaki's death. Or c) it's a bluff, and U.S. doesn't realize that Ichigo already knows that his dad was once a Captain. >.<

Anyway, look out for posts on OOO 10, Fallout: New Vegas (almost have that beat, but I keep dicking around with side quests), and Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 coming soon. ish. Now back to school work. T_T
