Except he lost his Shinigami powers when Byakuya first "killed" him. That's why in the more recent chapters he found out he had a fake Zanpakutou, it was just the Quincy power masquerading ever since.

Which is why it confuses me how, when the Shinigami power was destroyed, the Hollow part of him, which always existed since birth, didn't immediately poison the Quincy portion.

Byakuya didn't destroy his Soul Reaper powers. He severed his CURRENT powers, which were based entirely on Rukia's powers that she lent. That's why his "Zanpakuto" had the same hilt as hers. As seen with Uryu's fights in Soul Society, if Byakuya had properly severed Ichigo's soul chain and soul sleep, Ichigo's entire body of Soul Reaper powers would be gone, and no amount of healing or repairs (maybe barring Orihime) would be able to fix it. As they say it in the series, characters that go through this will "never be Soul Reapers again".

Urahara initiated the training to draw out his natural powers, much like Xcution pulled out his Fullbring. It's at this point that his hollow powers awoke because Urahara severed his soul chain allowing him to begin turning into a hollow through encroachment. It's also the first time Zangetsu/Bach appeared under the guise of a Zanpakuto to Ichigo. It's likely Urahara forced Zangetsu/Bach to act to protect Ichigo (after all, it seems Bach doesn't want Ichigo dead, but rather he wants Ichigo to defect to the Quincies) from the hollow consuming him. Whether it'd poison him is unknown though, as he still was part Quincy and Soul Reaper, even if those powers were not active. If it did, it's undoubtedly the hand of Zangetsu/Bach that kept him from dying.

Alright, after reading the chapters again I can accept that.

But what about his final fight with Aizen? He's told that the final form of Getsuga Tenshou would remove all Shinigami powers from him forever. That alone should have meant his death, since it did specifically state he no longer can see Shinigami or wield a Zanpakutou. The Hollow side of him should have poisoned the Quincy at that time, especially since the Fullbring is explicitly stated to be based on drawing out said Hollow power.

The latest in Blue Exorcist is doing its best to confirm my theory that Izumo is half demon. I first thought this was the case when she said something to Rin about how lots of other people in the Knights of the True Cross are part demon.

Supposedly this is Bleach's last story arc, but knowing Kubo he'll make it drag on for the next three years or so first. And there's probably nothing stopping him from making a "Bleach: Second Gig" or something. I can't see him giving up his private cash cow, personally.

Last I heard he's thinking about going back to Zombie Powder after Bleach is over with, but who knows if that will actually happen.

I think we're just about at what is not entirely unlike the end of Naruto. Almost.

I've just been reading for the hopefully super dumb ending.

Too bad this fight is like 10 volumes long with stupid bullshit going on every few chapters.

And I like how everyone has shown up.

So I think Kill La Kill is really picking up

Episodes 1 and 2 were pretty good but the new ep really left me with a strong impression. Now that all the exposition is out of the way I think the rest of the show is going to be really exciting.

I get the feeling there's no way we're avoiding a fairly pointless fight between Naruto and Sasuke over the position of Hokage since they're both calling dibs on it similar to the end of Zatch Bell, except they were actually supposed to fight in Zatch Bell. Going to be really disappointed if so, especially if they stretch it out forever.

Me too, but I'd also like to see him do a full story of one of those one shots. I liked the idea behind Bad Shield United.
