Update: The Karakura Kids now have cards as well!!!

I hope you don't mind but your post about your Ginrei story got me thinking about what a meeting between him and Ichigo would look like. It'd be explosive at the very best but maybe not as bad as everyone fears since Ginrei has experience dealing with short-tempered brats and Ichigo has experience dealing with strict old men considering his zanpakuto is one. Byakuya would still have a mild panic attack though.

For Ginrei, it would depend heavily on the context of their meeting. I cannot imagine Ichigo giving even a single shit what Ginrei thinks. I can see Byakuya getting all worked up about it, but on the other hand, at least Ginrei isn’t picking on him. Some possibilities:

Middle of giant battle, Soul Society is in shambles:

Ginrei: Ah, look at this brave and noble youth. A credit to the humans. We must support and protect him.

Everyone is at a Squad 10 Barbecue for Some Reason:

Ichigo: Yo, Byakuya, can I borrow your scarf? I need it for an impression I’m doing of you.

Ginrei: Ha, ha, Grandson, he has called you by your first name, such disrespect!

Ichigo: Hey, Old Dude, can you pass me the barbecue sauce? A+ mustache, by the way.

Ginrei: The insolence–! Grandson, where has your adjutant gone? I need him to hold my beer!

Conclave of Noble Families:

Byakuya: As you see, there are more Shiba.

Ginrei: I loathe the Shiba.

Byakuya: I know. Everyone knows.

Family Dinner:

Rukia: Hello, Grandfather! This is Kurosaki Ichigo, who is my boyfriend in this scenario. He is 15 years old, has orange hair, and is a human but sometimes also a Hollow, a Fullbringer and/or a Quincy. He has never brushed his hair in his entire life.

Ichigo (wearing a t-shirt that says “Be Gay, Do Crimes”): Yo.

Ginrei: I’m going back to my lake house.

I would love to see a fic on this.

What if Renji were the one who initially gave Ichigo his powers?

As requested by our-flame-never-goes-out. :)

Of course, it was Rukia who, in canon Bleach, gave Ichigo his original powers and then trained him in the ways of being a shinigami. But what if it were Renji who was sent to Karakura Town on a supposedly routine assignment, only to find himself losing his powers to some weird human? How would Bleach be different then? 

1. Renji would sacrifice his powers out of “weird-hair solidarity.”

In canon, Rukia’s motivation for giving Ichigo her powers was based partly on not wanting a family of humans to die, but mostly on the fact that Ichigo just looked so much like Kaien. But in this new reality, Renji’s motivation would be based largely on the fact that Ichigo has weird hair, just like him.

(later)

Byakuya: Renji….I understand.

Byakuya: This boy….has weird orange hair that reminds you of your own weird red hair.

Ichigo (bleeding on the ground): THAT was your motivation??

Renji: Hey! Don’t judge me!

2. Renji would follow Ichigo to school (in terrible clothes).

Like Rukia, Renji would stalk Ichigo until Ichigo agreed to be a shinigami. Unlike Rukia, though, Renji would show off his penchant for, just, really terrible clothing.

Renji: Yo.

Ichigo: WE HAVE A UNIFORM HERE, MAN!

Ichigo: Also what are you doing here?

Renji: Being a lot cooler than you, to be honest.

Ichigo: That is just not true.

3. Renji would sleep under Ichigo’s bed.

Unable to fit in Ichigo’s closet due to being giant, Renji would instead just sleep under Ichigo’s bed.

[hollow warning sound]

Ichigo: Where the hell is that noise coming from?

Renji (appearing suddenly from beneath the bed): Ichigo, let’s go!

Ichigo: HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN UNDER MY BED?!

4. Renji would still do chores for Urahara.

After all, like Rukia, Renji would need help with his mysterious “powers not coming back” affliction. And so would buy stuff from Urahara’s shop.

Urahara: All right! Your total comes to….sweeping my shop!

Renji: …or I could pay with money?

Urahara: No, that doesn’t feel right.

5. Chad and Renji would send a hollow to hell together.

I bring this up only because I want you to imagine - really imagine - Chad picking Renji up, and throwing him into the air to fight the hollow.

Renji: You are freakishly strong.

Chad: You just watched me swing a telephone pole like a baseball bat.

Chad: This surprises you?

6. Eventually, Byakuya and Rukia would come to arrest him.

I have decided that in this universe, Renji and Rukia have basically switched places: Rukia is the lieutenant of Squad 6, and Renji is an unseated officer. He’s also in Squad 6, though, because Renji still secretly wants to beat Byakuya. Naturally enough, when it comes time for Renji to get arrested, his childhood friend and the super scary captain he admires from afar come for him.

Rukia: Abarai! Abarai Renji!

Renji: K-Kuchiki Rukia, is that you?

Rukia: …

Rukia: You know, it hasn’t been *that* long since we were in school together. Why are we being so formal?

Renji: Well, from my side it’s mostly because of the scary, murderous look you have on your face.

Rukia: That’s fair.

7. Ichigo’s first big fight would be against Rukia.

And he’d nearly lose, too. Because in this universe, Rukia never hesitates to use her shikai.

Ichigo: Ice powers? Do all of you shinigami have elemental powers?

Rukia: How ignorant you are, fool!

Rukia: You don’t even know that my brother, a famous captain, has flower petal powers!

Ichigo: Flowers are basically an element.

Rukia: FLOWERS ARE SO NOT AN ELEMENT

8. In jail, Renji would mostly be sad about losing Rukia.

He just can’t get over how depressing his life became after he and Rukia went to shinigami school. First he ended up in the remedial class while Rukia went to the top, then she got adopted by some hot-shot captain, and then she became lieutenant. And Renji ended up as some unseated officer. It’s no wonder he’s about to be executed, he thinks.

Renji: Maybe if I had trained harder.

Renji: Maybe if I had practiced kido more.

Renji: I just got so tired of blowing myself up!!

9. But Rukia would defect to save Renji.

After her epic fight with Ichigo and 20 minute flashback, I mean.

Rukia: Ichigo, I am on my knees begging you! You have to save Renji!

Rukia: Because sure, he may be a big dumb idiot sometimes, but he is MY big dumb idiot!

Ichigo: …

Ichigo: Man. We’re both so shippy with that guy.

Ichigo: Is this an OT3 sort of situation, do you think?

Rukia: FOCUS

10. Rukia would have to fight Byakuya.

She’d meet Ichigo during his training for bankai, let him know that Renji’s execution has been moved up, and then go off to fight her captain and brother, Byakuya.

Byakuya: Rukia….are you really going to fight me, your brother, in order to defend a scruffy peasant?

Rukia: If I have to, yes!

Byakuya: Respect.

Rukia: What?

Byakuya: I mean I will never let you get away with this.

11. Ichigo would rescue Renji at the very last second.

And then do his best to strike a cool pose on top of the scaffolding…while holding Renji.

Renji: PUT ME DOWN

Ichigo: Dude, I carry a sword bigger than me. I’ve got this.

Renji: THAT ISN’T REALLY THE POINT

12. And would then throw Renji directly at Rukia.

This would not work as well as the opposite did in canon.

Rukia: WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU FOOL?!

Renji: OH MY GOD I’M ABOUT TO KILL RUKIA

Ichigo: Wait, why did I think Rukia could catch Renji?

Ichigo: Oh well I’m sure it’ll be fine.

Heres my own redesign of s1 Nya I did for funsies!

I always wished she had a less formal outfit (because lets face it, a qipao isn’t exactly casual) but it was too iconic to just completely remove, so I gave her a jacket! I also added some subtle hints to her being a mechanic/Samurai X; her toolbelt, goggles and the oil smudge on her cheek!

Not much else I would really change about her character in s1 (except her … questionable writing but that’s a talk for another day..,,!)

Child of Demeter Congratulations and welcome to cabin 4! You are a demigod child of Demeter, goddess of the harvest and agriculture, presiding over crops, grains, food, and the fertility of the earth. As such you have a natural inclination toward the culinary arts and possess the ability to control plants, sense them, and make them grow faster. Additionally, but in rare cases, you might be able to teleport through plants and summon Karpoi and Satyrs to your aid. Something you can look forward to is working on the strawberry fields alongside cabin 12 and enjoying the first ripe strawberries.

Not bad, the quiz had some fun questions. I'll tag my mutuals if they want to try it out.

@getsusun, @doomsminion, @headcanonsandcupcakes

child of zeus Congratulations and welcome to cabin 1! You are a demigod child of Zeus, the king of the gods and ruler of the sky. Aside from being more likely to die before the 6th grade, you possess the ability to summon storms and rain clouds and perhaps even shoot lightning and electricity! Children of Zeus have enhanced leadership qualities and naturally assume positions of responsibility in whatever group they are in. Much rests upon your shoulders!

Harribel Hollow Queen Outfit

Isshin reacting to all of the insanity during TYBW would be the funniest shit.

Shit Isshin might say (if he saw zombie Hitsugaya and zombie Matsumoto)

As requested by anon. :)

Hitsugaya and Matsumoto were recently turned into zombies, because that is a thing that happens in Bleach now. But what if their old captain, Isshin, finally returned to Soul Society and saw them as zombies? What sorts of things might he say?

1. “T-Toshiro! Why are you wearing a Quincy uniform??”

2. “I know my absence probably left you with abandonment issues, but Yhwach is not your new dad!”

3. “I know his facial hair is magnificent, but even so!”

4. “Rangiku has abandonment issues too, and you don’t see HER joining the Quincy!”

5. “I mean, you haven’t joined the Quincy, have you, Rangiku?”

6. “…….or don’t answer me. That’s okay. It’s cool. I know you’re probably mad.”

7. “Just - how could you join the Quincy, Toshiro????”

8. “Not that I hate the Quincy. My wife was a Quincy. But there’s Quincy, and then there’s Quincy, if you know what I mean.”

9. “Also, why are you so…….gray?”

10. “For that matter, why is Matsumoto so gray?”

11. “And why are you both staring at me with blank lifeless eyes?”

12. “Also, why haven’t either of you reacted at all to my sudden appearance, even though you must have been wondering for like twenty years where I was and what happened to me?”

13. “Also why aren’t you blinking?”

14. “Wait a second………….are you guys zombies?”

15. “Oh my fucking god you guys are ZOMBIES!”

16. “I leave for twenty years, and you BOTH get turned into ZOMBIES?!?”

17. “Toshiro, you’re supposed to be smarter than that! Rangiku, you’re supposed to be WAY more sensible than that!”

18. “Love the new hair though, guys. Seriously. Great look for both of you.”

19. “So, uh, I guess this means no big reunion, huh?”

20. “I was gonna say how proud I was of both of you, and how sorry I was for the way I left, and I was going to blow both of your minds with the news that I’m Ichigo’s dad! That’s right - I raised the kid who keeps saving the universe!”

21. “But now it just seems so….pointless. Can you guys even hear me?”

22. “Grunt if you can hear me.”

23. “Grunt if you can’t hear me?”

24. “Man. I can’t tell if you guys aren’t talking ‘cause you’re just that mad, or if it’s the zombie thing.”

25. “I guess I shoulda talked to you guys in the world of the living, huh?”

26. “Back before you were zombies.”

27. “That would have meant Ichigo finding some things out earlier, but then, maybe that would have helped him.”

28. “I’m just…….I’m really sorry.”

29. “…”

30. “I really gotta stop waiting so long to talk to people!”

Why Isane still went after Rose and Kensei's bodies

lmao the screenshots

My first thought was that she didn't believe Gremmy saying they were dead but then I read the chapters for this episode and she did scan their pulse so she know they were dead in the manga. Then, I remembered the Echoing Jaws of Hell Arc one-shot Kubo wrote.

The Reisai ritual from the Hell arc

Renji talks about how captains who died in battle would get this ritual and we also know that shinigami who are greater than third class reishi are captains and they have to be cast into Hell. Kensei and Rose are Vizards adding to being captains so they would fit that category after the war if they weren't saved by Mayuri.

Now of course, most of the captains including Kurotsuchi, Soi Fon, and others didn't even know about the true purpose of the ritual so how could Isane know about it? (Even though the true purpose doesn't need to be known to do it)

Eh, I would just chalk it up to her being Unohana's lieutenant and Unohana being a OG Gotei 13 and the head canon of her having to send her fellow captains to Hell and knowing she would soon be in it.

Anyways, I kept seeing people asking why she went after their bodies when they were dead already and thought of this.

Orihime Rikka outfits! + Silly Ichihime extra

I've started watching Shugo Chara, crating this was my Canon event. I have no self-control. I was unable to draw ANYTHING unless I finished this shit.

This is the post, just a bunch of Hime Designs

Concepts:

Shun-no: nurse??.

Ayame: wife kind of outfit.

Lily: superhero.

Hinagiku: Superspy, that is an alien, so doesn't know how to dress.

Baigon: samurai??

Tsubaki: assassin

I don’t know if Segunda Etapa and Ichigo’s Dangai version of his Bankai/Mugetsu could be considered equals. Vasto Lorde Ichigo overpowered Ulquiorra’s second Resurrecion and then Dangai Ichigo was overpowering Hyogoku Aizen’s multiple forms who claimed he was transcending hollows and Shinigami.

Mayuri’s surveillance bacteria are by far Kubo’s greatest “has no relevance except this one fight” concept. Someone should ask him about it at Klub Outside.

the official and fan translations really don't agree on chapter 552:

but if Bankai and Resurreción are equivalent, then Segunda Etapa and Final Bankai are equivalent, and Ulquiorra did it without any drawbacks whatsoever

from chapter 348 it apparently wasn't the first time he'd ever used it, so he could use it as many times as he wanted. Uryū was there for most of the fight (although he admittedly didn't see the transformation), and Uryū:

was infected with surveillance bacteria per chapter 303

in other words Mayuri, via SRDI staff like Akon, should've had footage, if not far more advanced telemetry, of an Espada using Segunda Etapa, the equivalent of a Shinigami's Final Bankai, and should have known it was theoretically possible to stabilize the latter

this man apparently never researched the matter for even an instant, not on Shinigami or on his resurrected Arrancar, nor did he ever talk to Kisuke about it (nor did Ichigo, Uryū, or Orihime) because if that research ever had happened, TYBW would've been the time to use it or at least mention it as being unready

this dude literally has footage of someone operationally going from an atomic bomb (~20 kt) to a hydrogen bomb (~200–1,000 kt) in lethality and shrugged and went meh to play around with Privaron Espada and Arrancar corpses

are you kidding me

what, did Akon or Hiyosu or somebody delete the footage?

also how the fuck did Ichigo never mention having seen Segunda Etapa after having lost his powers from using Final Bankai? especially when he'd literally seen Uryū lose his powers from using Letzt Stil only to gain them back? Ichigo dude why were you moping around for 17 months when you literally knew people who'd used equivalent powers who either didn't lose them or got them back soon after

like it is INCONCEIVABLE that Mayuri and Kisuke don't know about Final Bankai (Kisuke literally showed up as it ended versus Aizen) and couldn't analogize it to Segunda Etapa and Letzt Stil, and yet neither of them shows any apparent interest in it whatsoever

some scientists

"Oh, the hydrogen bomb? Meh, I don't wanna be Edward Teller, I'm a Robert Oppenheimer kinda guy."

this is likewise INCONCEIVABLE when Kisuke and Mayuri should know Wandenreich is coming, despite their apparent total lack of preparations

unless they deliberately ignored the research avenue to let Wandenreich kill as many people as possible

then they both roll out smartphones and internet streaming by NBFH to bring down Shinigami culture hmmmmm no conspiracy there no sir
