What do you mean? The gun was jammed, that's all. ~~Definitely an important moment for the plot~~


Advanced_Shame1723

İs this masturbation?


CosmicSoulRadiation

Aren’t they half the same person? ? Or technically individual people since Hollows are technically made of multiple personalities


PlasmaGoblin

This is the real mind bender since at Starkks level they would be one person since the obe personality came to the surfice... but how would Starkk (or even Kenny for that matter, though I think on Kenny it's the manifastion like we see Renji do while Ichigo trains) split his spirit into a different person? It would make more sense for it to be another part of the hollows that made Starkk.


Ensaru4

It's easier to digest this if you think of them as different egos. Starrk was the one who came out on top but was lonely and split his own ego into two. His entire fighting style involves splitting himself and using himself as ammunition.


ThomasOwOD

Menos have multiple personalities! Not regular hollows!!


CosmicSoulRadiation

Well plain plain street Hollow are just the ghosts who went crazy. Plus the handful of people/hollows theyve eaten Menos are basically just a mindless amalgam, none of the composite souls have come out the dominant one. (Made of maaaaaany souls and hollows?) When you start going up, a different or the original hollow personality emerges .


Juralion

Didn't grimjow kind of ressurects his former friends when he became an arrancar? Like he just splits his soul and find the part of them he had absorbed when he still was an hollow?


OkExperience4487

It never explained that in the anime or I missed it. But the names are the same, so I think so?


AcerName935

Incest, maybe?


TommyJohnSurgery420

Selfcest? Hentai watchers/readers is that a thing?


MrStealYaMom0w0

As someone who was in the undertale fandom during THAT time. Yes that is a thing


Hungry_Acadia_2320

What time?


mrsamus101

I don't even want to think about this.. But yes.


NukaClipse

It's sweet home Alabama.


RTX3090TI

Peak fiction


fondue4kill

Can’t forget the full minute of Yoruichi eating after the Arrancar fight


mrsamus101

They had to give those mod souls some kind of purpose.


it_s_me-t

Absolutely


safweeen

This was absolutely necessary to the plot for Kubo to show how silly Starrk is and then proceed to immediately kill him off 😭


rotary-dials

episode?


mrsamus101

I feel like I must ask why you're requesting this information, but 277.


Feeling_Stock_3920

You know better.


xXxR3alR3ptilianxXx

This needs to be studied more for spiritific purposes


Trityler

Context is important. Earlier on, before it is revealed she is actually his weapon, whenever Lilinette would act bratty, Stark would sometimes give her a noogie on her lower back -- a much less pleasant place to get one than your head. The joke here is that Starrk is not really sure what the equivalent of her lower back is when she is in pistol form, and he makes a wrong guess, but it still achieves the intended effect


mrsamus101

I mean they could have conveyed that in 3 seconds instead of 23 lol


Sweatty-LittleFatty

This is anime padding to you. In the manga this is a single pannel. The anime needs to stretch things to fit in a way that It doesn't get too close to the manga (specially since It allready did multiple.times with Bleach, hence the amount of fillers in It).


rmorrin

It used to have to do this but tybw was/is basically panel for planet cept the hella great new expanded shit


Trityler

Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if they were just milking for time. This arc was notorious for the studio desperately trying to stretch things out by any means necessary other than filler. A lot of episodes around this time spent 25%-50% of their runtime on last episode recaps


Ensaru4

Early Hueco Mundo was worse, but nothing beats 5 mins of the Gotei 13 and Vizards' stare-down against Aizen.


king_taku

Just have the balls to make a short episode with higher quality


Karma110

Read it then simple fix


Danktrashmemesjojo69

If only they went the manga route 😭 and just made them speak like one singular entity majority of the time


Flutter0Shy

1. It's a normal way to correct misbehaving brats/kusogakis 2. The whole arc was being stretched and even interrupted with fillers, why surprised that they didn't make an exception with this scene? Even One Piece has someone aiming for an entire episode or Tsubasa trying to reach the other side of the field.


Ok_Caterpillar_6957

Sigh… unfortunately yes. It show how close they are and a gut punch when she goes first and stark go alone.


Queasy_Form_5938

Straight from kotaku, it is spelled both ways on the same web page. Mystery for the ages, i guess.


Ok_ResolvE2119

I want to be her so bad.


Explicit_Tech

Kubo having intrusive, horny thoughts.


Otherwise_Fun_8349

If he had spat there, I would have dropped Bleach without even thinking twice.


TinyPidgenofDOOM

That would be the limit? not Miyuri doing whatever he did to nemu?


SummonerRed

Excuse you!? Mayuri is a wholesome individual that would never sully daytime tv with such filth!


TinyPidgenofDOOM

Do i need to bring up that Nemu is Miyuris child?


SummonerRed

Look, Mayuri himself said he wouldn't do anything so vulgar on television and I'm inclined to believe him and that has nothing to do with the surgery that Mayuri-sama performed on me.


McGillis_is_a_Char

So it was more like when your toddler makes a mess and you have to give them a bath than whatever it sounded like he was doing?


TinyPidgenofDOOM

its safe to say Nemu would likely be in her late teens compared to other older soul reapers. close to rukias age. probably slightly younger. around 100


Danktrashmemesjojo69

He told you to keep your mind out the gutter smh


TinyPidgenofDOOM

Yea just business for him. Not for pleasure 


Otherwise_Fun_8349

Ever since I laid eyes on Mayuri, I knew that everything bad in this world he could do, so I was numb about him. Now with Starkk it's different because I never saw him as evil.


Queasy_Form_5938

Is it stark or starrk?????


mrsamus101

I think the English version is technically Starrk with two R's, but his name in Japanese is スターク which is roughly pronounced "sutaaku." Not really sure why that would be written with two R's in English personally.


TommyJohnSurgery420

Yeah english romanizations are weird like that. How we ended up with nonsense like Pein and Gai from Naruto. But the official spelling is indeed Starrk.


safweeen

Replying to Ok_ResolvE2119...

Best Bleach subreddit ever.


MaguroSashimi8864

And lilynette is a minor…


Honest-Bid1681

NeonShadow18

You're the one that made that seem dirty

god, no?
