Annie's Spoilers

[ravens_rising]

Annie's spoilers are up at BA!

And because discussing spoilers is much more fun than studying for that final I'm going to fail tommorow...

One of the things I find most interesting, actually, is that Annie says Halibel turns to Yamamoto after thinking that she's defeated Hitsugaya. Is she going to try to take him on?? Seriously? Maybe people are right, and she is arrogant. Hmm. Yamamoto could take her down pronto.

The rest of the Hitsugaya scene... >_> Blargh. I guess Hitsugaya is going to end up being really powerful. Meh. I guess we'll see how this goes, but at the moment it's really irritating me. I'm still half hoping this is a fakeout- you know where you think someone's dead, they get up and find out they're not... and then someone shoots them in the back of the head and they really die. (I finally saw the episode last week where Kate dies in NCIS. This happens there, so I guess it's on my mind. I've seen similar before, too.)

I am now really worried about Soi Fon. Barragan's ability sounds pretty... harmful. He broke her arm?? And how far can his aging powers go? I don't know what she can do to protect herself from him... Nevermind if he can make her an old lady, even the fact that he can slow down time is problematic for her. Isn't one of her best skills speed? Not as quick as Yoruichi, of course, but still... Hrm. Also, I think Annie's alternate translation for Barragan's release frightens me more than the one she chose. 'Decay' worries me more than 'deteriorate'. I guess it just... sounds more serious. *shrugs and bits nails*

On the other hand, at least from scans it looks like Barragan's release is going to be pretty awesome looking. That's something, I guess.

Now let's talk about Barragan's reveal. I'm not sure I get it. If we take it just from what Barragan said and what he can do... Each Espada has a certain power over an aspect of death. His is aging, so he can slow time. But have we seen this in the others? Some of them, maybe- Grimmjow certainly brought destruction. But did, for example, Mayuri cause madness? Did Ulquiorra bring emptiness/desolation? I wonder if that has anything to do with Ichigo's transformation, now that I think about it...

And then Stark's of course. After Kubo makes a big deal out of it this chapter, naming all the Espada and their corralations, he must at least be going to bring this in with Halibel and Stark. Why Halibel is sacrifice should be really interesting too, but since I'm a silly fangirl I'm more concerned with Stark's loneliness at the moment. Does this mean perhaps he has some control over.. emotions? Like depression/loneliness? When I started considering this I was like, "I wonder..." and then debbiechan said in the comments exactly what I didn't know I was thinking. She's wondering now if maybe Shunsui's friendship with Jyuu will come into it. O_O Do you have ANY IDEA HOW EXCITED I would be if that happened???? *crosses fingers, arms, toes, eyes* PLZ.

Heh. Well, that's my two sense on the situation. Chime in all you want, I love discussing Bleach. Obviously. In case you hadn't noticed. :p

I THINK HE'LL COME BACK SOMEDAY TOO. OR AT LEAST SOMEDAY WE'LL GET FLASHBACKS. BUT PROBABLY NOT FOR A LONG TIME. =/
I am... relatively fond of UlquiHime. I have friends that like it a lot, but I only really started liking it after Ulqui's 'death' scene.

That scene was so cute and bittersweet. T_T
I liked her more in the beginning. Now she's just weak. But she IS gorgeous. Mmm!
