Bleach 532

And this chapter pretty much cemented my interest in the new arc - and also foretells that no, Kubo hasn't forgotten all the threads he's been weaving this entire time.  In fact, it may be now that they're finally starting to slowly come together.

Wow! If Masaki is back, I have some catching up to do! Rii, you tease!!

[rii_no_ame]

Yeah, she's been back for a few chapters now - it's a flashback arc. You'll enjoy it!

"Is anyone else seeing Orihime all over Masaki?"

No. Not at all. Apart from the physical resemblance there's just nothing in common between them. What Masaki has done in the past two chapters -confronting Ryuuken and going against the rules to pursue her own ideals and offing that Hollow in the way she did- are two things Orihime would never do. She lacks the agressiveness and general courage to engage in a fight like that or to even have such a direct verbal spat with someone close to her.

Well, I'm not sure I agree with that entirely, but yes, the physical resemblance was what I was referring to.
