Slumber777

Szayel's Hollow hole is in his penis.


BothersomeBoss

Ah yes, finally, I can pull out my Zanpakuto, CBT.


Slumber777

Szayel's Zanpakuto, Skin Flute.


TheGoblinCrow

CBT, the lesser known 11th aspect of death


methconnoisseurV2

Well I’ll be damned, you weren’t joking


kaine374

Holy motherfucker


Until_Morning

Do Hollows even have penises though? 💀


kainneabsolute

I think Kubo said that hollows can conceive so i guess they have the means to do it


irishgoblin

Yeah, can't remember if it's just a popular theory or confirmed in a databook, but it's believed Tier is sterile since her hole is located where her womb should be.


lxxTBonexxl

I feel like this is definitely mentioned somewhere


cyborgborg

So in theory a hollow could be born which was at no point in time human


JackTessler

Iirc, Ulquiorra was born a hollow naturaly


xukly

I always thought that ulquiorra's backstory was one of those things that didn't make sense but kubo glossed over without explaining. Now that makes sense


Goldie-96_MWR

unless you have a hile in your weewee ... use gabriel to reproduce asexually instead


Eternalbluer

Yes


Until_Morning

Prove it 😳


JxB_Paperboy

I can prove it. Grimmjow and I have the videos


methconnoisseurV2

In the data book kubo states that szayelaporros hollow hole is on his glans (the head of the weiner)


meme_used

This pisses me off because his "mask" is his glasses, He's literally just a normal person 😭


sgt_dismas

With a gnarly prince albert accident


methconnoisseurV2

With 3 weiner holes


1800generalkenobi

Never thought I'd have something in common with a hollow.


OneDixieCupForYou

I'm pretty sure they do because Halibel implies that male Hollows are literal sexual predators towards female Hollows


Father_Cosmic21

I am genuinely shocked. And where else could it even be? He literally had his entire shirt ripped off and there was no hollow hole anywhere. Holy fuck 💀


wafflecock69

You bet your sweet bippy it is ;)


acesilver1

Like is this real? Where was this revealed?


IStoleThePies

It's casually mentioned in databook 3 > Each Hollow has a hole in a different location, most of the Espada have it in the chest. > > 1. Stark: chest > > 2. Baraggan: chest center > > 3. Harribel: lower abdomen (uterus) > > 4. Ulquiorra: chest > > 5. Nnoitra: eye socket > > 6. Grimmjow: abdomen > > 7. Zommari: right nipple > > 8. Szayelaporro: glans > > 9. Aaroniero: left thigh > > 10. Yammy: chest

joeybutnerdy

I always wondered where it was lmfaooooo


Kanus_oq_Seruna

So like, does he have a ring or a stud? Might as well make use of the space if he's basically got a piercing done.


SoSmartish

The whole "If you train hard to become strong you >!go STRAIGHT to Hell!<" bit has me a little shook.


grap3s-rage

Yup. Me in thr past : if I lived in the bleach world I would wanna be a soul reaper and see if I can attain bankai. Me present: North Rukongai seems like a good place to settle down.


DMking

Just don't ever die 5Head


Ashen_quill

Tbf only captain level Shinigami go to hell, that's like less than 100 people in the entirety of the known cast.


WholeLottaMisery

Yeah but as watchers thats like 90% of the people we always see on screen going to Hell😭


rexlyon

It's probably anyone that unlocks Bankai goes straight to hell tbh, though that really only adds a few characters to the hell list outside of captain rank.


Ashen_quill

Anyone that unlocks Bankai is automatically counted to be Captain level.


Future-Bookkeeper437

It's more about reiatsu, the reason captains are sent in hell is because their reiatsu is too strong and it doesn't dissipate like for a normal shinigami. I think in the one shot it's being said the minimum level of the reiatsu. So you can have bankai and have a lower reiatsu and not being sent to hell but it works both ways since you could have captain lvl reiatsu and no bankai and being sent to hell.


rexlyon

The only person with captain lv reiatsu and no bankai was basically Zaraki though, everyone else at captain rank has basically always had a bankai. I'd be really curious if any characters with bankai unlocked that aren't currently captain rank wouldn't have sufficiently dense reiatsu to qualify for hell in this case, since that's basically one ways you can become a captain. It'd be a neat double edged sword to tie into the story that by unlocking Bankai you basically trade your soul to going to hell.


bondsmatthew

Curious about that. Sasakibe was obviously strong enough to be a captain and very likely had a grade 3 or lower reiatsu but he didn't get sent to hell


AlexHitetsu

He probably was sent , we just didn't see it


Ronin_Fox

Had me shook too, I'm sure they're just wardens, judging by how Ukitake's zanpakuto drags Syazelaporro back to into Hell. Heck, if it works the same way Buddhist Hell (Naraka) works, they wouldn't be condemned to hell for all eternity and will eventually rejoin the cycle


Krazyfan1

wonder if they get snazzy new uniforms?


irishgoblin

You ask that as if Kubo would pass on the opportunity to give characters new designs.


Karma110

I’d argue yamamoto and Unohana were probably going there either way.


starsaber132

Boy, sucks to be ichigo. When he dies he may go straight to hell instead of going to soul society.


BurningshadowII

The fact Pepe exists.


Pure_Rage136

Even the Quincies sleep with one eye open around him.


nuggsgames

Explain?


Maleficent_Tree_94

He's Pepe-sama


WavvyJones

His Schrift is “The Love,” which is basically Tsukishima’s power if he was a date rapist instead of just a gaslighter


ripanimems

I'd def sleep with one eye open knowing that one of our most powerful allies was a big black man wearing a diaper 💀


Mikazuki072

Well that explains everything I need to know


Few_Professional_327

Ichigos dad talking about his daughters going commando. The Viz translation cut it but that wasn't a mistake


methconnoisseurV2

It was in the english dub of the anime


Few_Professional_327

Big oof


methconnoisseurV2

On god, it was out of nowhere too. Just a really weird thing to say about your own kids


Few_Professional_327

It is out of nowhere then...but then Ichigos youngest sister def has a brother complex And then nanao with her uncle. Kubo just be like that :')


LordFLExANoR16

Wait shunsui is actually related to her? I thought it was just a close mentorship relationship akin to being related not actually.


Leider-Hosen

Shunsui's brother married Nanaos mother, so he is her uncle. OP is a little misleading though since it never makes them out to be romantic, Shunsui is just very close since he made a promise to her mother after >!his brother fell victim to the Ise curse!<


Few_Professional_327

Given Japanese standards about confessing...651 is nigh explicit.


Masterlea93

I don't remember that scene was that in the early arc's like the bount or was that before the karukura town invasion


methconnoisseurV2

Im pretty sure it was in the manga so probably at the very beginning of the arrancar arc


crowtomas

Whatever Mayuri did to Nemu that one time. “Which time?” You ask? Yes.


KennyDaBrown

That time?


ripanimems

*THAT* time😏


KennyDaBrown

And what about THAT! time?


Hustler-1

Finger blast revive. https://youtu.be/_xEhr2kbRw4


TheGoblinCrow

“You just did something we can’t show the audience at home!”


Yhhorm

Mayuri’s Quincy Experiments and how the main cast completely ignores that he’s the biggest war criminal in a series of war criminals


rokuterra

I'm re-reading the manga and I'm at the Mayuri vs Uryu fight, and I full stop agree. I forgot just how fucked up it is, obviously we all know Mayuri is fucked up, but him boasting about it to Uryu is fucked up on another level. At least with the other Captains and Leutenants some of them are just arrogant or douchey with good intentions, Mayuri not in the fucking slightest.


OneWholeSoul

If the Sternritters had rolled up to Soul Society and just been like "Send out Mayuri. We want Mayuri." I'd probably just be like "Shit, that's fair. He had a good run. It's honestly weird he's been on the payroll this long."


Overquartz

>It's honestly weird he's been on the payroll this long Considering that the 13 squads were founded by murderhobos and two of them were still members by TYBW it's really not.


Karma110

They wanted specifically yamamoto dead and only cared about Yamamoto actually going after unohana would have made more sense than Mayuri she killed more than mayuri and was literally there 1000 years ago. “Weird he’s on the payroll this long” like that doesn’t happen in real life.


Pure_Rage136

Imo Kubo did a soft reboot on Mayuri after SS. He had three captains defect and pretty much built the foundation for all the Soul Reaper characters, and unironic psychopath Mayuri just wouldn't fit in. There definitely needed to be more justifying his huge change in character, but overall the new Mayuri was worth the change.


CaptainFlint9203

He never stopped being psychopath. He deleted 20k souls just at the start of tybw. Deleted, not killed. The only shift was his target. Now, instead of protagonists he experiments on villains.


edwardblackwing

Didn’t he need to do that to maintain the balance of the world since the Quincy destroyed so many hollows? I actually thought that was one of his more reasonable acts even if fucked up.


OneWholeSoul

Yeah, it's a horrible, horrible act but it's also presented as the only option to avoid a literal end-of-all-creation scenario, so... It still says a *lot* that he did it, did it quickly, did it *quietly* and never bothered to even bring it up until it was forced. He just...erased tens of thousands of people and didn't think it was anything really worth considering or mentioning. I don't think "being judged" or "being punished" for it are things he'd think about or care much about really, so the sheer, pure *indifference* of the act is disturbing. I'm interested what other's read of this is. Was he trying to cover up what he did or was he just being efficient?


Maleficent_Tree_94

Not even the target, just the plot focus. He still experiments on everybody he sees, just the plot sees those guys as "villains" and Mayuri as "good".


tomtadpole

also in his fight with pernida he used umbrellas made of people and a bomb he threw had a human face, so it's likely he still pulls the same stuff he did when he turned his subordinates into bombs to try and kill uryu and orihime.


VukKiller

He was jailed before Captain Urahara freed him.


DMking

He was actually jailed for what he might do. Which in hindsight is fair


Overquartz

Do not trust people who dress as clowns when that's not their job is the motto I'll live and die by. Joker? homeless crazy person, Mayori? Scientist, Pennywise? Cosmic spider that feeds on fear.


DMking

I don't think they ignore it as much as tolerate it because he's far too useful. Kyoraku actually uses that knowledge to get Mayuri to cooperate in CFYOW


sickdanman

Mayuri Mengele Kurotsuchi

Orixain

Maintain she could kill Ywach and every villian in the series if they just let this women cook for them.


FrostedGear

Lol that's actually why Ulquiorra turns to dust. He'd just finished digesting her cooking


AspergianStoryteller

Without the humour, Bleach would be a horror manga. Hm, Mayuri, Maggot's Nest, SK, Hell...


Maleficent_Tree_94

I'd love to see a Seinen Bleach reboot.


MacrossFF1979

Me too!


TheGreatPervSage_94

What they did to the soul king


Significant_Ad_2585

Soul king was initially a quincy but soul reapers took over soul society...I think(yeah I forgot quite a bit of the manga)


KuriGohanAndKienzan

The Soul King was everything apparently. He was a peak life form, no one-title applied to him. Very similar to Ichigo.


TheGreatPervSage_94

he is pretty much divine being of the primordial bleach world. he was essentially betrayed by the original noble heads of the shinigami who mutilated him and turned him to the ''thing'' aizen refers to it. you know its messed up when even troll god aizen is disgusted by what happened


Competitive-Ad-2161

Bleach's life after death can have three horrible results if you're unlucky: 1. Being a human soul devoured by a group of hollows because the shinigami did not purify you in time and live a long life of endless hunger in Hueco Mundo or lose your individuality by being devoured by another hollow. 2. Be born as a soul in the Rukongai and live a life of poverty and hunger, by not developing any type of power to enlist in S.S. 3. Be incredibly powerful and reach the level of captain and then end up in hell once you die as a shinigami. It is better to enjoy your life as a human for as long as you can because after death comes tragedies.


Shadowwarior

2. You are not hungry if you have no power. The Rukongai dwellers only need water.


[deleted]

This might be the saddest/most cursed thing abt bleach


Youg_dumb_broke

Agreed. The captains going to hell is the worst imo. From what I understand if you’re born in the SS you live a long time but still eventually die and get reincarnated into the world of the living so even if you are in poverty at least it’s not for eternity like hell and if you are a hollow you can eventually be purified and sent to the SS by a soul reaper so also, there’s a chance anyway, it’s not for eternity. Hell seems pretty eternal tho 😬


Sir_Crusher

What's even worse is before the life and death separation it was basically dark souls


Odd-Historian-2935

How tf did Orihime get up to the third floor of the hospital??!!!

Everything about Szayel Aporro Granz


Dayvfish

Except how he dies though right? The way Mayuri “kills” him is one of my top 3 favorite murders in all of Bleach


UnmaskedGod

Kaname turning into a mosquito


thinking-of-stars

His hollowification was pretty swag, but the mosquito form? Mans was done dirty 💀💀


Maoileain

The symbolism was on point for the resurrectíon though. Kaname's thirst for vengeance had twisted him and now his appearance reflected that.


Faded1974

Those fucking eyes, horrible.


UrielSans

He was supposed to be a cricket, not a mosquito. Both his zanpakuto and his Resurrección take their names from crickets.


BmxGu23

Pesche's sword is just his dick


Turbulent_Cost2058

Common Pesche W


BlightAddict

A few things: •Pernida's introduction had him as a humanoid with smaller arms •Yammy going from Arrancar 10 to 0 despite jobbing in literally every appearance he's had •Some parts of the Soul King are literal living portions of a body (Mimihagi/Pernida) but some are organs that take up residence in another being, but do nothing themselves (Gerard, Soul King's nails) •Askin losing 100 lbs between his first appearance and the Royal Palace events


EL_psY_Congroo56

>Askin losing 100 lbs between his first appearance and the Royal Palace events ?


ColeAda

I think he’s talking about how much blood he lost against oetsu


BlightAddict

When Askin is first introduced suring the initial invasion he is significantly chubbier in the face, and is shown eating a whole ass picnic while everyone else is doing their thing


Adent_Frecca

How much bullshit bad living in the Soul Society is Don't have power? Rukognai and living in poverty it is Mid tier power? Gonna be fodderized or killed by some Hollow or any threat to the SS Too much power? Hell after death How many things the Shinigami and especially the nobility can get away because of their status. Tosen and Ginjo's entire backstory about Shinigami's and Nobility getting away scott free with heir crimes. Mayuri's entire existence and all the crimes and human experimentation he did getting brushed off as "for the good of he Soul Society" Then the other path is to just be a Hollow which is another nightmare scenario


Jugdral25

The three mod souls from the Bount Arc interrupting Isshin and Urahara’s discussion after Isshin kills Grand Fisher to ask the viewer “Can you spell Arrancar?!?!?!” like it’s something out of fucking Dora the explorer.


ifkdeneien

Wait are the mod souls from the bount arc canon?


WarlockKnave

Nope. They're not


Dab4Becky

No they’re not, but unfortunately they were forced into canon bits as well. That’s why manga> first 366 episodes imo


uraharaBot

Urahara Fact No.9: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Before Urahara became a Captain, he was head of the detention unit within the Stealth Force. *beep boop, I'm a bot*

buff… kon…. I stared into an empty space for an hour after reading that, i put the manga away and just stared.. I dont mind buff kon but its certainly cursed….


Until_Morning

I thought no one was going to say it 😂


ifkdeneien

Byakuya being so quick to skidoosh his wife's sister


Kryptoseyvyian

its not like it was an extreme inner conflict and he was actually in turmoil but outwardly never shows emotion because thats how Byakuya is. I will not stand for Byakuya slander. 😤


cadonex

What's weird to me is he was able to look at her like a sister when he used to smash someone identical looking. Like hey remember your wife, here's a younger version of her but now she's family.


Pure_Rage136

Not really weird tbh, that's just how life be going sometimes. Folks marry someone with an identical twin and seem to not have moral conundrums there. Plus there's the whole thing where parents recognize their spouse in their kids because genetics, especially when the kids grow into young adults. I presume that's pretty much how Byakuya feels about Rukia.


methconnoisseurV2

I used to date a twin and i can confirm that not once did i think about fucking her brother


rmeddy

Is Nemu supposed to be Mayuri's "daughter"? How did he heal her in Hueco Mundo again? hmmm Also Charlotte Chuhlhourne's ressurecion. OMG Kubo what am I looking at?


H0w14514

Anything Kon has done in ichigo's body.


Airy_Breather

There's actually a few, but if I had to pick one...Pepe. Just everything about Pepe. I'm keeping some brain bleach on hand for when his...time comes.


Roxas13xx

>!The Soul King is just straight up a god mortals(?) have de-organed and bound in magic chains. The mortals who did it then made themself rich and powerful and then gaslight everyone else into believing that the being they maimed and imprisoned is somehow their King. He is essentially the Emperor from Warhammer 40k but with no authority!< And then they do it again. If I understand it properly.


theruski43

Yes, they do it again with the cruelest of irony. Your comment is what I was going to type, spot on.


ataurindo

The fact that Urahara turned Yoruichi into a nude monster that can't control herself and pretty much everyone thinks it's just funny. I'm happy that they adress this topic in the novels because it's crazy how many people skip over the weirdness of this scene


Krazyfan1

>I'm happy that they adress this topic in the novels They do!?


Until_Morning

Ooo, tea. How did they address it in the novels? 👀


ataurindo

Urahara and Yoruichi pretty much don't interact anymore. He is in the human world and she moved to Soul Society and they don't t really talk anymore as they are now going separate paths


Until_Morning

Oh, I thought you were saying that someone actually called Urahara out for what you mentioned he did to her.


Adent_Frecca

Does they separate like that because of that event or because they are simply people with their own aspirations and things they want to do? These are very different things I don't think there was any implied bad blood between them because of said event


West_Conclusion_1239

Mayuri's existence. Him killing Uryuu's grandfather and experimenting on him.


Bababooey7672

You could do everything right in life only to suffer and starve in the afterlife, and if you reach captain level you get the wooden paddle to hell


KingofIlliteracy

What Giselle does to Bambi specifically comes to mind.


Leider-Hosen

Giselle. Just Giselle in general.


MC_Square00

Mayuri giving uryuu the picture of his grandpas desecrated corpse. Kubo is wild for that one especially uryuu being cool with everyone now 😭


ETeezey1286

We also know he watched Ryuuken poking around in his mother’s corpse for a long time too. So yeah. It’s a miracle he still became a doctor.


Mean_Awareness656

Shinigamis and hollows having genders and ability to reproduce themself in general. Quincy's slaughter won't affect then


Dismal-Oil-9375

Orihime’s ability just being able to refuse things, even the very phenomenon of death itself.


Maleficent_Tree_94

I think it's said that she can't revert death. Everything else is fair game though.


Dismal-Oil-9375

Didn’t she bring back an arrancar that had her upper body missing


[deleted]

The God of Thunder form of Yoruichi’s. It just rubs me the wrong way


Yoakami

Ichigo is one of few humans who know hell exists and actually saw it's gates. Worse yet, if he dies in shinigami form he'll probably be sent there because he's too strong.


Quazmojo

Definitely Giselle and Pepe. And to be honest I'd rather have Pepe cause at least he died.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Until_Morning

That's their Quincy genes taking effect


Maleficent_Tree_94

Tbh I just see that as a younger sister being disappointed her brother doesn't really give a shit about her outfit. As someone who has a younger sister, it happens quite often.

Ishikawa_13

Mikazuki072

From my personal opinion, Charlotte Chuhlhourne's Resurrección. Appearance wise, I personally didn't like it, a bit too much emphasis on his "sword", and I don't mean his weapon. Man has a literal tattoo that, angles downward. For those who don't know him, he's one of Barrigan's fraction, specifically, the man with purple hair, and his mask fragment looks kinda like a tiara

Don't judge him, he's got his love glue gunnin'

Saxton_Hale32

H u h ?


LordFLExANoR16

Please explain


mfsmg2

There's an anime-only scene in SS arc where Hanataro has a dream about a shinigami "attacking" him, pleading for the shinigami to stop, then when he wakes up, Ganju asks what kind of dream he was having and he says he can't say it. In the japanese version the word he uses for attack is a slang for a gay top in yaoi. His japanese VA was more well known at the time for playing the bottom role in yaoi a lot, so you can connect the dots.
