Bleach Chapter 396 – The Bite

Post Author: J-sama

Yama was dead, because his last attack was the limit of his powers (not to mention it requires you to cut off your arms and legs as a sacrifice), I told you Aizen lost an arm (being heavily burnt counts as lost) from that same attack, and I told you One Piece is the best manga ever (it’s the best manga ever, yeah). That’s 3-0 for me. Now as for everything else, things have only just begun to get interesting – when even Byakuya starts drinking coffee, then you know it’s bad.

The chapter starts with Yamamoto’s fire attack on Aizen. Like I said last week, this was the commander’s last attempt to kill his enemy with an attack that is as powerful as a bankai. Unfortunately it’s almost useless, as Aizen gets away with just a charred left arm and a few minor bruises and burns.

I was thinking after last chapter – if Yama was able to survive just a little longer and knew that his side would lose, then he could’ve just given Aizen the King’s key, so that at least the people of Karakura would be spared. But that of course would go against his moral code of protecting the king at all costs. Well, one thing is certain – we won’t be seeing any more old people in Shounen Jump this year.
