The new story arc of Bleach: The Lost Substitute Shinigami

Tweet

I am so thrilled for this new story arc of Bleach! The scenes during the opening credits of the first episode for this arc seemed very interesting and exciting. Ichigo's bankai power (black and red spiritual energy) is spewing out from his hands like some sword while fighting enemies and that's while he's not in his soul reaper form! I love it!!! It's soooo cool! There's a lot of interesting new characters, too especially the members of the Xcution organization which as of now, I still don't know if they will be Ichigo's enemies or allies. But it seemed that they know Ichigo even before and have been searching for him. I also think they are soul reapers, too because the Xcution guy who bumped into Ichigo also carries a soul reaper badge. What's also nice in this new story arc is that the regular characters changed a bit especially with their hairstyles. Karin has grown her spiritual energy according to Ichigo. Both her and Yuzu are now sporting longer hairs. Ishida and Inoue have their hairs in different styles, too as well as Tatsuki. Ichigo, on the other hand is (I think) missing his soul reaper days and also Rukia, but is doing fine being a normal student with a normal life. He is being "contracted" by his school sport groups alternately like basketball and soccer and he's "lending" his skills for a price. Anyway, I am just so excited to watch the next episodes!!!!
