BLEACH, THE FINAL

FRONTIERBy

dj Date Masamune

Also, friendly reminder from Kenpachi-sama…

Need to Knows

• Panel will be available online + my resources on my blog• Will upload .pdf of PowerPoint that will be available post-con

• Contact info. • Take a business card before you leave

• If you have any questions left, feel free to ask me after the panel or e-mail me

• ‘Discussion panel’ is nothing w/o the discussion part ~^.^~

How It’s Going to Be…

• For every arc, I’ll do a super quick, super basic summation (accompanied by a crapload of pics), then everyone else can add in their own things, move the crap on rapidly, rinse & repeat• i.e., everyone gets a chance to talk

• So, none of that “anime expert”/“I know more than the panelist” b.s.

• Important mindset to have: Bleach is a recently ended train wreck you can never look away from

Hollow Ichigo

Some Interesting Things w/ the Pilot Ch.

• Ichigo's hair = black (on the cover)

• After giving her powers to Ichigo, Rukia shrinks in size

• Orihime dies and is taken to Soul Society at the end

• Souls are given a ticket to enter Soul Society (vs. konsō)• Concept of tickets is reintroduced in chapter 546 of the manga.

• Hollows do not have masks

• Ichigo's shihakushō has a star pattern under both its sleeve, while Rukia's has a flame pattern.

• Ichigo's Zanpakutō = size of a standard Zanpakutō.

• *Orihime's father, who had died three years before Orihime's death, arrives to take her to Soul Society. Rukia identifies him as a Hollow and reveals that he killed Orihime so that she would stay with him forever, because she had stopped praying for him and seemingly forgot about him• In the anime, it was her bro, Sora Inoue.

• Rukia = 3rd Division (Gin Ichimaru)

• The Kurosaki family runs a mortuary rather than a medical clinic• Either way it’s ironic >.>
