I've been wanting to revitalize this community for awhile. I know
kari_izumi is quite busy, and since Christmas, I've been working two jobs because this economy is so lovely. I still see this comm on my profile keep thinking that I should try to do something to keep this place active.
Anyway, since things seem within the story seem to be getting a little more intense, I would like to try to start posting weekly spoilers and discussions. I know we're not a large community (yet?), but you have to start somewhere.

sheetz @ FLOL 藍染「殺しはしない~その傷では意識を失うのも難しいだろう
Aizen says stuff like: "I didn't kill you...It'll be hard to even pass out from those wounds...
この戦いを見ていろ」みたいな
Look at this fight."
火柱からおじいちゃん
Yama comes out of a fire column.
くんのおせーよ、お前倒したら十三隊は終わりだ、こなきゃよかったのに、
とかぼろくそいわれててかわいそうでした。
He says stuff like "When you are defeated the Gotei 13 will be finished. I wish I didn't have to come."
じじい「貴様程度がわしを斬れるか~」
Yama: "You think somebody like you can cut me down?"
藍「斬れるとは思っていない~すでにきっている~」
Aizen: "I don't think I can...I already am"
じじい「ほざけ!」
Yama: ”How dare you!"
藍が瞬身の術でおじいちゃんの後ろに。
Aizen shunpos behind yama.
おじいちゃん振り返ったときに刺されてた。カワイソス。
When Yama turns around he's stabbed.
藍の腕をじいちゃんがつかむ
Yama grabs Aizen's arm.
じじい「藍染捕らえたり~」
Yama: "I've caught you, Aizen"
藍「捕らえてどうする?これが本当に私の腕とでも?」
Aizen: "So what will you do? Assuming that really is my arm?"
じじい「・・・目で見て~~~~」
Yama: "...I see with my eyes..."
「腹に刺さった刀の霊圧を読み違うことはない」
"It's impossible for me to mistake the reiatsu of a blade that's pierced my belly."
ここらへんワケワカメ
「機は今熟した」
"Now is our opportunity."
火柱一杯 藍染びっくり
There's a huge pillar of fire. Aizen is surprised.
おじいちゃんの地獄みたいな技
The technique is similar to Yama's fire prison.
「おぬしの戦いすべてがこのための隙になったのじゃ」
"This is the opportunity all of your fighting has been for."
部下たちが切られている間にこの技をしかけていたらしい。
Apparently as the underlings were getting cut down he was preparing this technique.
ひでぇなおいw
That's terrible. lol
じじい「わしと一緒に死んでもらおう」
Yama: "You'll die along with me."
「下がれ黒崎~」
"Stand back, Kurosaki."
いちご「!」
Ichigo: "!"
お前を巻き添えにするわけには~
"You shouldn't get entangled."
藍「他のやつらは良いのか?巻き添えになるぞ」
Aizen: "And the rest are fine? They'll get entangled."
じいちゃん「皆覚悟は出来ている~」とか
Yama says stuff like, "The others are prepared"
じじいの後ろにワンダーライスとかいう子
WW appears behind Yama.
じじいが刀の後ろに降りるが素手でとめられる
Yama brings the sword down behind him, but WW stops it with his bare hands.(not sure about this line)
そしたら炎が消えた 部下を犠牲にしたのに
The flames are extinguished, even though the underlings have been sacrificed.
じいちゃん「何故消えた~?」
Yama: "Why was it extinguished?"
藍染「他のすべての能力をすててただ一点を特化させれば君にも勝てる」てきな?
Aizen: "Casting aside all other abilities, if I were to allow you that one specialization you could win."
「ワンダーライスは唯一の改造破面、彼のレクスシオンの名前はエスティンギル
"Wonderwyce is a unique, modified arrancar, his resurrection's name is Extingir.
君の技を封じるために作られた」
And he was created to seal your abilities."
「さらばだ山本~」
"Farewell, Yamamoto"

Hitsugaya's injuries seem to be making up for the ice mirror business, since it's pretty much the same injury. It's a little less severe, but it still has a similar effect. I do kinda wish the only grievous injury getting dealt wasn't chopping off limbs, but I think this is where the growing limitations of the genre come into play. There is considerably less tolerance for violence shonen, and a look at Bleach compared to, say Fist of the North Star, makes this a little more apparent.
Naturally, I wonder what happened to Kensei. He didn't necessarily lose, but Wonderweiss headed off to fight Yama-ji when he knew there was fire, kinda like a moth to a flame (bad pun intended). Getting a full fight from Kensei, especially since he went bankai, would probably be a bad thing, since this manga isn't very good at giving much time to characters who've already showed us all their power.
Though this is one of those depends you have to wonder about the planning. From what I've seen amongst fans, a lot of people like Wonderweiss and had high hopes for him. Making him a tool to specifically fight Yama-ji kind of cheapens his character. Then again, it's not like there was much development there in the first place. What I do like is his interest in butterflies, as his ressurecion makes him a huge butterfly. That's what really catches me here and makes me wonder if this idea was something Kubo had in mind for awhile.
I'd like to know people's thoughts on Yama-ji's potential to die. I think that he's probably the one with the biggest potential to be a huge and very meaningful (both to the plot and the shinigami) death.

Also, since we're trying to things kicking around here again, if there's anyone out there with some kind of analysis (character, pairing, fight, etc), theories to share, or anything in that vein, please post. We want your teal deer, your thoughts on yaoi. We'll listen to anything, so long as it (and the discussion that comes with it) is well-thought and respectful, since our only real rule in here is the Golden Rule.
