To establish himself as the 6th ranger of Ichigo's team
Well the captains know everything. Urahara, Yoruichi and Soifon know about the time paradox and that his real name is Lelouch vi Britannia. The phantoms know the part about his real name, but they know nothing about the temporal paradox
And Ichigo and his nakama are completely left in the dark
Yeah but all the damage she was taking in the process FROM holding back and STILL had the ability to curb stomp him into the ground shows how badass she is even after getting scruffed up a bit
Thank you
No Shonen style power up during THIS arc, just some natural increase in endurance, strength, dexterity etc.
The whole reason lelouch is going from the bottom arc is very akin to Goku and Krillin's training in dragon ball. If you extend your human limitations and if Ichigo becomes stronger as a human he will naturally EXPLODE when he ups to Shikai and Bankai.
Hey same for the Adjuchas then. If Aaroniero is the ONLY Gillian that means Grimm and Luppi were both Adjuchas and Grimm RIPPED THE MESS out of Luppi. Imagine what would've happened if he fought Zommari or Szayel hmm?
Talbumosuke is reading this stuff out of Aizen's notes and documentation. Reports have to be written very descriptively in the military. Word of God himself confirms that there is a sector of the Seireitei archives that contains ALL POSSIBLE INFORMATION THAT IS THERE WHETHER ONE WANTS IT TO BE THERE OR NOT. That being said, only the captains only the captains have proper access.
How else would Aizen be able to make the calculated decision to create Wonderweiss. Surely the man isn't THAT insecure in his own superority that he wouldn't think, without prior knowledge that he is not stronger than Yamamoto
Like I said, Gin no longer has a reason to Heel Face Turn except to get the Hogyoku. Gin's SOLE REASON for becoming a SOUL REAPER (never mind a captain that was all to stay as Aizen's second) was to get the Hogyoku. With Aizen gone, Gin decided he'd try and backstab Tal and take the Hogyoku. Now Talbumosuke is promising it to him in exchange for his loyalty. He even EXPLICITLY STATES that if Gin doesn't consent to cooperation that he'll outright kill him. As far as Talbumosuke knows Gin has nothing him personally. He just wants the Hogyoku. He has no reason to believe Gin has Chronic Backstabbing disorder. How is Talbumosuke supposed to know that Gin and Lelouch have some common ground and that Gin will betray him if Lelouch can give him a better counter offer. He can't. Talbumosuke is not that smart. Doing that would make him omnipotent and too close to Aizen. He is the unskilled but strong to Aizen's weak but skilled. However, he will ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS lack in the planning and intelligence department in comparison to his sensei. Talbumosuke, while a good gambiter (after all the retreat fell right within the margins of his plans) CAN be outgambitted. It's hard, but it's not impossible. He is VERY BAD at Xanatos Speed Chess. He can make a very complex and successful Xanatos Gambit but he is not skilled enough to properly play Xanatos Speed Chess
lol
More or less
I've had a few people congratulate the hilarity of the MP omake. One person was completely lost for not knowing what Monty Python is (heresay and blasphemy I know)
