Too much caffeine.

[platedlizard]

GAH! I got the sudden impulse to have coffee this morning. And entire pot. Now normally I only drink tea, which apparently means that I'm not used to drinking the amount of caffeine that's in a pot of coffee. I literally feel like I'm dying, extremely shaky and nervous. Good thing I don't have anything important to do today. I'm drinking a beer in the hopes that the alcohol counteracts the caffeine.

Oh well!



I'm really really excited about Uliquorria's fight. I'm not a fan of that character, I think he looks too emo actually. But his release form looks badass and I like the detail that he can't release inside Las Noches because he can destroy it by accident. Ichigo was barely holding his own against Uliquorria's unreleased form, so I predict that he's going to get his ass kicked, and then just as he's about to be killed he'll do powerup OR Hichigo will get sick of kicked around and take over. You heard it here folks.

Rukia's fight looks interesting, and I predict that we cut to it pretty soon, I hope that she pulls out Dance #3 and kicks that guy's ass, he's being completely disrespectful which in Bleach means that he's going down to a humiliating defeat. I just hope that Byakuya isn't the one to give it, this is a fight that Rukia should shine in IMO, not him.





Pain is totally badass. I almost like him. Almost. I suspect that he won't be defeated by Naruto, who at this point will be lucky if he gets away. I think he's going to be defeated by Shikamaru and Ino's Dad, who will go after Pain's real body. And what's this about Pain "stealing" Kakashi? Is he going to use Kakashi's body next, and will Naruto have to fight his old mentor? Talk about mindfuck.

I want Ichigo and his Hollow to really pull out all the stops, go extra uber shiny bankai over 9000 and such. That, or I want Orihime to step up and, oh I don't know, save him by using her powers for something creative and interesting.

Oh god, Pain in Kakashi's body... *whimper* I don't know if I could take that! Naruto doesn't need anymore emofodder, guh! ;_; It'd be awesome to see Shikamaru kicking ass again, though!

Yes! Hichigo and Ichigo are just different aspects of the same person, and I think they need to work together more. I get the feeling that there's another level to their power, and it's time Ichigo accesses it!


The only way I'd be happy to see Pain using Kakashi is if it means that Naruto (or whomever) is able to rescue Kakashi and bring him back to life.

I have to wonder if that's not the whole reason for Orihime being taken, for Ulquiorra to continue playing with Ichigo when it seems Ulqui could crush him if he really put his mind to it. Is this some way to force Ichigo to do what the vaizards and arrancar couldn't, into a greater bonding with his Hollow?

Oh gah... the very idea of Naruto facing Kakashi at Pain's mercy is making me wibbly!

Sorry to take so long to get back to you. My internet has been flaky.

We've seen the Vizards (or at least Shinji) do Cero, which Ichigo hasn't done yet, so right now I think he's still less skilled then them. Which makes sense, they've been around longer. So before he powers up beyond them he has to get to their level. It does make sense that Ulquiorra is trying to force that growth... the whole point for the arrancar in serving Aizen is to ease their inner hunger/pain/loneliness. So observing someone else make that union between whole and hollow soul would be a good way to learn more about how to heal. OR Ulquiorra might be trying to force his own growth by pitting himself against someone with similar but opposite energies.
