Bleach theory re: Masaki

WHOA you guys.  WHOA.  I just realized something about Masaki Kurosaki.  (Ichigo's mother)

Spoilers up to chapter 530

Death of a Shinigami

Dead or just unconscious?  You never know with Ichigo...

So.  I'm a little worried that Ichigo will never be a shinigami again.  R.I.P. Zangetsu.  Who knows when we will see him again?!?

This drawing was modeled off of Michaelangelo's 'Pieta'.  I'm not saying that Ichigo is Jesus but maybe I am.

Another Manga Edit

Lyrics: "Dark Paradise", Lana Del Ray

Bleach: Chapter 423

Fact: If you replace the text in these two pages with Lana Del Ray lyrics, you will cry.

I've been cycling her albums on repeat as I write fanfic. 

I think it would be a good combo for a disgustingly melancholy AMV.

Aizen vs Urahara: Bleach/Sherlock mashup

Yes, you read that title correctly.
Because I just find it fitting.  They are the master manipulators of this story.
How many pieces does Aizen still have on the board?? How many does Urahara??
Is Ichigo one of them?

Manga panels from Bleach, chapter 315.
Quotes from Sherlock (UK) TV series, season 2, episode 3 "The Reichenbach Fall"
(the exchange is between Sherlock and Moriarty, btw)

Manga edit by me.  Because I'm insane.

IshiHime... i do what i want

If anyone notices that this was inspired by the running joke in Guillory/Layman's "Chew" (Image Comics), you win a GIANT INTERNET COOKIE.

Ahhahahaaahaaa. Had to/wanted to draw it. No apologies.

IshiHime is not totally convincing but I love these two characters.  Uryu's crush on Hime is adorable.  Until their characters are developed more (i.e: Orihime gets over Ichigo, preferably in a very self-confident, sick of one-sided relationship way) nothing is going to move forward. 

I am going to say something that is going to get me internet murdered, but I don't get UlquiHime.  *ducks*

It has inspired some really smoking hot fanart, that is truth.

But Ulquiorra is dead.  Dead and gone.  

I don't deny that Ulquiorra might have fallen in love.  (but this is a shounen manga so any romantic developments have to be KILLED PRONTO)

Orihime was sad when it happened but she didn't mourn afterwards.  She went right back to doting on Ichigo.

If you have been keeping up with the manga up to Chapter 528 and want to know my thoughts, please
