Bleach, Vol. 34: King Of The Kill (2008) - Plot & Excerpts
Wow this volume was great!! And when things start to look bad, the captains come in for some fun too!It's really cool to see Ichigo and gang struggle against the Captain's abilities during the Soul Society arc, but now that they are on the same side you can wonder: "How in the world did they manage to survive THAT before?"Zaraki meets up with Ichigo and takes his place to fight Nnoitora, Kurotsuchi fights Szayelaporro, Unohana comes to heal, and Byakuya fights the man who was about to kill Rukia, (didn't catch his name).Of course they all brought their buddies too, and everyone brought their Assistant Captains except Byakuya, who brought Hanatarô. Ah, I missed Hanatarô. :3Pesche takes a sword from his pants, (and he doesn't even have pants, so don't think about that for too long), and Dondochakka throws his 'sword' up too, but it looks more like a club. They ended up going into the 'pass out society' along with Nel, who turned back into a child. I started laughing so hard when she popped back into a child! It was just so funny how sudden it was!What was up with Nnoitora putting his fingers in Orihime's mouth? That's just nasty, and he was asking to get bit, (even though Orihime never bit him).Grimmjow's body is lying around somewhere I bet, but he hasn't even been mentioned. :/Kurotsuchi is quite the creepy captain. Injecting things into people's bodies in preparation for battle? Poisoning everyone? Dang, I'm glad this guy is on our side now. I could tell he was a little bit upset when Nemu like, withered away, but he probably can just 'remake' her easily. *Shudders*. Creepy but true. It's also seems like a very horrible way to die, the way Szayelaporro did. In total slow motion, not understanding any of your enemies words and therefore not understanding what is happening to you? And then suffering for the next hundred years? Agh so creepy. That is a GREAT word for Kurotsuchi; Creepy. And merciless, and calculating, and freaky... I don't usually hand out five star ratings to volumes of BLEACH but this one deserves it. Kubo manages to balance the different fights running concurrently with relative ease, and no battle is short-changed. The Byakuya vs Zommari fight is especially brilliant as is Renji/Uryuu/Mayuri vs Nnoitora (although it gets a bit gross near the end of the volume). It seems like things will really be moving ahead in the next volume - perhaps out of Hueco Mundo even? One can hope.
What do You think about Bleach, Vol. 34: King Of The Kill (2008)?
The battle moves to a new stage as the Captains show up to fight the Espadas.
