1. Whatever

2. And yet you still defend this horrible piece of crap  ?

3. LMAO ! Yeah that's pretty much the dumbest thing i've ever heard. Naruto has actually been much more interesting than Bleach has been within years. How do you call the epic badass moments with Sakura or Konoha 11  boring  ? Sorry but you further prove that you're not the one for quality standards God.

So you're basically whiny about Naruto because you didn't get what you  want  ? Boo hoo! What we got from Naruto is alot better than what was  promised a while  ago. Sasuke is still going to fight Naruto  but after they both have an epic battle with the Juubi, Obito and Madara  with the help of their  friends. How in the blue moon do you find any of this  bad  ? Right you're love for Bleach blinds you from facts.

Oh yeah because Aizen was so much better within the Decide arc   chasing Ichigo's  friends around  pointlessly. Madara at least has an  excuse to still around  given  he's got everything under wraps and  the only  person who's a threat to him   is busy, Madara has proven that not only can he  physically crush Aizen  either as a Edo or  alive  but  he's shown to be a much better written villain than Aizen ever was.

Also who  said  Sasuke was a good guy ? Sasuke sure as hell didn't, he comes off more of an anti hero  seeing his characteristics  still remain the same, it's his path that's changed  and  really many people still hate  Sasuke  so  even assuming Sasuke  pulled a Jellal , he's not going to be forgiven so  easily.

Some plotholes ? Try plot canyons God !

Here's a few  really notable ones

1) First of all  QUINCES CAN'T HAVE  ZANPAKUTOS ! If Bachgestu is Ichigo's  Zanpakuto, then how  does Ichigo have a Zanpakuto  ?  Quncies don't  use Zanpakuto's and  shouldn't be able to form a Zanpakuto, let alone perfectly mirror a Bankai and Shikai  release !  Having Zangetsu as  Bach causes a plot canyon right away for it violates all established continuity  with this terribly written retcon.

2) Given Bach  purged all impure Qunicies of their powers  9 years ago,  Ichigo shouldn't have any Quincy powers let alone a Zanpakuto spirit that's secretly his Quincy powers . Hell going by the whole Masaki retcon, Ichigo shouldn't even have Zangetsu if he's based on Quincy powers so  way to  add into another plothole within a plothole Kubo.

3)Who is  Tensa Zangestu  ?   If Hollow Ichigo is the real Zanpakuto and if Zangestu is Bach from 1,000 years ago, then who the fuck is  Tensa  Zangestu, an even younger Juah Bach    ?

4) Isshin never using Final Getsuga Tensho to lose his powers

5) Masaki being attacked from the front by Grand Fisher yet getting a fatal injury on the back.

6) Nobody noticing the sudden lost of Reiatsu prior to Masaki's  death  regarding her losing her Quincy powers.

7) Masaki not having Ginto to fend off Grand Fisher. Uryu who was also powerless was able to fend off A MENOS GRANDE what those Gintos. I 'm sorry but i really refuse to by into the idea that Masaki, a woman within her 30's would be so ill prepared in case she somehow lost her powers and i really refuse to by that Grand Fisher would easily take her out powerless or

8) in the original Memories of the Rain, Masaki wasn't even shown to be spiritually aware during that time and yet in this flashback, she was shown to see spirits even before she was about to be killed off without any  powers . Nice continuity  !

9)We were told all the way back within 488 that Yamamoto didn't kill Bach 1,000 years ago and yet Bach needed 900 years for his heart to beat again ? Yeah that's called killing him or at least comatoasing him.

10)if Bach was somehow unsealed, wouldn't that be a massive  problem ! How the hell do you fail to notice Bach coming back to life ?

11 ) How was Bach even intact ? Granted Yamamoto stated his Bankai wasn't as powerful as it was before he died but his flames are still hot enough to reduce anything to ash so how was Bach not brunt to a crisp ?

12) If Yamamoto  knew Bach wasn't dead, why didn't  he  find him and  finish him off before he can be a serious  threat to the Soul Society again ?

13) For  ruthless killers  back in the day, the original  Gotei 13 must've really sucked going by the fact Unohana  was nearly token out by a child and Yamamoto sparred the life of some asshole.

14)Also if we're going by the math right and going by the Bleach timeline, Bach would've achieved full power within 1999 A.D., 2 years before the start of the series within Bleach time, WHY THE HELL DID HE WAIT 4 YEARS TO ATTACK THE SOUL SOCIETY ?Hell he could've easily token it over during the Fake Karakura Town arc given all the Shinigmai were fighting within the World of the Living in Fake Karakura Town or in Las Noches within Hucedo Mundo and easily ambush thew returning Shinigmai who would be too weakened to put up any resistance and bam, Soul Society is all his but no, due the laws of contrivance we have to have him wait 4 years for no reason whatsoever to attack the Soul Society.

15 )With all the Reishi being absorbed from Half Qunices, this further raises the plothole how no one noticed a Qunicy uprising. Seriously, there must be at least a few thousand half Quncies around the world and you're telling me that it took 9 years for Bach to steal their powers and yet nobody from the Soul Society noticed it at all ? It was explicitly stated that Mayuri hunted the Quncies down to it's last members and that all the surviving Qunices were monitored heavily by the Gotei 13 and yet you're telling me that the same SDRI system that easily detected Yammy sucking out dozens of souls within Karakura Town didn't detect a far stronger power level doing the same at a much larger scale ? Jesus, this Bach plot is adding more plotholes within a massive plot crater.

16)Even if Bleach flashback is happening within June 17 2003 A.D within Ichigo's timeline. WASN'T IT APRIL WITHIN THE FAILBRINGER ARC ! My goodness, this plot is becoming so contrived that it can't even keep track of time. There was no indication that two months past by, hell all the events seem to happened within the same month, this is just Kubo again pulling crap out of his ass so this entire plot feels like it make sense when it makes even less sense and the more i complain about this, the more i realize that out of my boredom, i could've commented on the timescale fail.

17)It was clearly stated that Bach purged all the non pure Quickness within the storyline in order to form his Quincy army by taking away all the powers of non pure blooded Quinces, the problem is that URYU ISN'T PURE BLOODED !

Uryu was born from a half breed Quincy and a pure blooded Quincy therefore, Uryu isn't a pure blooded Quincy ! He's either half blooded or 3/4th Quincy, either way there's no way in hell that Uryu should even have powers. Good god Kubo, even when you write a barely passable excuse why Masaki Sue pwned a Vasto Lorde but died to Fodder Fisher, YOU STILL SCREW IT UP BIG TIME !

Uryu alone ruins the entire Masaki retcon, his entire existence and the fact he's not a pure blooded Quincy with Quincy powers just proves the sheer stupidity of this entire retcon. This isn't even a plot hole, THIS IS THE PLOT GRAND CANYON OF FAIL !

18) Ichigo shouldn't have any Quincy powers or potential . Ichigo is even less of a Quincy than Uryu, Masaki or Karagatri . Ichigo is part human, part Quincy and Part Shingimai with Hollow powers, he's only 1/4 Quincy. This alone makes the entire bullshit plot device we spent 10 chapters on completely ineffective and makes it even more bullshit that Ichigo can use Blut Venne or any Quincy powers at all. In short ICHIGO SHOULDN'T HAVE THE POWERS OF A QUINCY DUE TO THE BACH RETCON.

19)Hell Ichigo was actually much more emotional and sad when he lost his FAILbringer powers back in that godawful FAILbringer arc than he was  recently learning the truth of Masaki's death. How is it that Ichigo gets more emotional over losing his powers than hearing about the death of his mother ? Ichigo was shown to be sickeningly overattached to her and yet you can't even write that right Kubo ? Ichigo should either be crying buckets of tears or recklessly charge towards Bach with rage. Thanks to your bad writing, you make it seem Ichigo cares more about power than he does about his family.

20)What is Uryu's reasoning for joining Vandereich ? If anything going by the fact that Bach himself killed his mother, he should be the very last person joining the Vanderiech . This is beyond idiotic, we just spent an entire chapter explaining how Masaki and Katragai died and Uryu joins the very people who killed his mother ?

21)WHY THE HELL BACH IS LETTING IN URYU ? Bach surely spent alot of time looking for pure blooded Quinces right ? Why the hell is he opposed to non pure blooded Quinces yet is recruiting Uryu WHO'S A HALF BREED ?This is beyond moronic and contrived, this is purely stupid. It's like Kubo doesn't realize he's contradicting himself within every page.

22) why did Bach spent time recruiting Uryu ? What the hell is so special about Uryu ? If anything the fact he needed to lose his powers to take on the weakest Captain in the Gotei 13 and can't even beat the second weakest Espada and did jackshit against Syzael shows he's pretty much useless and expendable fodder compared to any other member of Sterin Ritter . Uryu is barely Captain level without Lezt Still and is lacking the skill and experience of other Sterrin Ritter. NONE OF THIS MAKES ANY SENSE !

23)Assuming Uryu was joining the Vandenreich to secretly get revenge, does the  same guy who can't even kill Espada number 8 think he's going to kill the very same guy who fodderized the 3rd Espada and made her his bitch ? The same guy who pretty much one shotted Kenpachi ? The same guy who killed Yamamoto ? The same guy who's the only one capable of stealing Yamamoto's Bankai and the only one capable of using it ? The same guy who's a god among Quinces ?

24)WHAT WAS THE POINT OF ISSHIN LOSING HIS POWERS ? We spent the last three chapter explaining that Masaki wanted to live a normal life and be freed of her Quincy powers for some bullshit reason despite the fact she never seemed to want to lose her powers and apparently she didn't,  so again what was the point of Isshin losing his powers ? Hell this actually proved to be completely and utterly pointless and even counterproductive.

25) Why the hell Kisuke wanted to use a Shinigmai ?  Last time i checked, in order to cure Hollowfication, you only need a Quincy do it. According to what was said by Kisuke, Isshin giving her powers should've caused Masaki to lose all of her powers, both Hollow and Quincy powers. Kisuke clearly stated that in order to make Masaki completely normal, you needed a Shingimai and using a Quincy would only make her a Vizard yet... Despite having Isshin's power poured into her to stop her hollow powers, SHE STILL HAD POWERS ! WHAT WAS THE  POINT OF THAT ? Hell one can even say that was not only completely idiotic but counterproductive and a massively contrived and forced way to pair the two but having Ryuken give Masaki powers instead would've saved Masaki that day from Grand Fisher for she would be a Vizard.

26) It's all Kisuke's fault for even proposing the alternative, not only was that ineffective against negating all of Masaki's powers, it prevented her from having reserve powers in case their attacked again and Masaki had no Quincy powers. Did Kisuke ever think about the fact Aizen or some other villainous force might come after Isshin, or hell what about the damn GOTEI 13 who would look for Isshin ?

27) Speaking of the Gotei 13, no one within 20 years of Isshin's absence can find him or even searched for him ? Isshin was able to hide this long without even a hint of anyone looking for him or even a mention of his family, we spent 3 pages  learning every detail of Masaki's boobs and yet we get nothing in regards to whether they're were anyone looking for him or whether Isshin misses his family and friends within Shiba clan?

28) Rukia at the start of the series was an unseated officer and  yet after a month was  tracked  down by the Soul Society and found. Isshin a  Captain  is completely unnoticed with no one looking for him FOR  20 YEARS  !

29) This one is a bit more of a nitpick but it  proves my point. I love how Masaki had a D-Cup within chapter 536 despite being established flat chested within the first two chapters of the retcon and yet Adult Masaki within her thirties is flat chested, geez it almost seems like that last chapters big boobs was just blatant fanservice that had no point to the story and actually created more plot holes just by the way Masaki looks within the flashbacks. Also did Masaki get implants then breast reduction surgery ? Why bring this up ? Because this is further proof Kubo doesn't give care about continuity, if Kubo can't even keep breast size consistent, what thinks he can keep anything consistent.

30) Also with Hollow powers, wouldn't Masaki be even more powerful, not less powerful ?After all Arrancars have Heirro and Hollows are naturally tough to the elements. Masaki's Blut Venne should actually be alot stronger. Hell this plothole actually creates another much larger plot hole within the story.

31)Ryuken never wanted to be a Quincy last time i checked   going by his  dialogue within the Arrancar arc  but in the Masaki  retcon, he  didn't appear to be like that. Hell he was  quite loyal to the Quincy .  Why  didn't  Ryuken volunteer to lose his powers ?

32)Also Aizen is rather calm despite the epic failure of White, then again he apparently must've planned all this too happen. Seriously Aizen can plan 200 steps ahead of everyone but still lose to a 16 year old with not even 1/100th the skill or experience as all the people Aizen has beaten. ?

33)Masaki is a complete moron. She is aware that the Shinigami killed nearly all off her race right? Why the fuck is she friendly and introduced herself so easily to them ?

34) HOW THE HELL DO YOU SEAL BANKAI'S  WITH A SLASH  IN THE BACK  ?  You're doing it  wrong Aizen ! Byakuya clearly  stabbed  deep into Ichigo  back chapter 56  to seal his powers  and the bow was suppose to be  nearly  fatal,not  a mere slash in the back.

Second should Isshin's Shikai also be sealed ? It's terribly contrived that  someone  sealing the Soul Chain and Soul Sleep without including paralysis or incapacitation ,but just sealing Bankai alone  ? I'm sorry but i  refuse to buy that  it's that simple,   this  is  too ridiculous, even for  Aizen.

And most of those plothole are from the Masaki retcon alone and i haven't even gotten to the plotholes within the timeskip or FAILbringer arc.

Well you expect the Ten Tails to go do so easily ? He actually lives up to the hype so far which is much more than i can say for Aizen. No they're  using a  barrier to slow down the Juubi's movements, the same barrier which tanked a blast Aizen can only  dream of  performing on that scale.

Yeah the fact nobody cared about Sasabike  and surprisingly care little about Yamamoto. Seriously, for all of Yamamoto's badassery and power, i  expect a much bigger reaction to his death than people seemingly  not giving a shit about the most powerful Shinigami  dying.

Yeah the pointless idiotic Bankai training up against Qunices that can steal his Bankai and  pretty much fodderize him   ? Yeah real smart there Kensei.

Who honestly gives a crap about Komamura  ? Are you seriously trying to compare  Komamura or this crapfest of an arc to the awesome Pein Invasion arc   ? Komamura is a canonfodder captain who loses more battles than win any battles, his losing streak is almost as bad as Ichigo, Almost  !

Also God, i think you've must slept through the MUCH BETTER WRITTEN Minato and Kushina backstory which Kubo  tried to  rip off badly  with the Masaki retcon  but failed miserably. You must've also been too busy reading that " Thrilling " FAILbringer arc to notice there was alot of emotion and character development within the Team 10 fight, the Dauri fight, the rematch with Zabuza, Obito's  reveal,  Team 7's reunion, hell even the Tailed Beast  fight had emotional impact.

LOL projection much ? Are you kidding me ? You're trying to say that the newly introduced Naruto characters have no personality and are one dimensional, you know as opposed to the boring Nazi stereotypes of the Vandenreich, the bland and boring FAILbringers or the annoying Squad Zero who are mostly one dimensional stereotypes of characters.

Also those who live in glass houses  shouldn't throw stones God ! Allow me to disprove your Appeal to Emotion !

Ichigo actually used to be a bit of a rebel in terms of character. This is the same guy who pretty much fights with his idiot father, sticks up for the weak and defenseless even if their ghosts and mind you pretty much rebelled against the Gotei 13 just to save a friend. Now within the timeskip, Ichigo is so easily to manipulate as seen how he went with the FAILbrigners without even a second though and now he doesn't seem to have that smart, slightly aggressive personality that made him stood out from most Shonen characters anymore as he just mindlessly sits there without even questioning once about Isshin's past, not even asking questions regarding events.

Look back to Naruto again, Naruto didn't just sit there with an apathetic look on his ace when he learned about his parents and their origins and upbringings. He asked questions and interrupted moments of flashback expect when they were major like the fight with Minato and Obito. Also the Kushina retcon/Nine Tails attack was explained within only 5 chapters, The Masaki retcon is nearly twice as long any yet has failed to made anything work on any level.

Also note Naruto's reaction learning about how Kushina and Minato hooked up http://www.mangahere.com/manga/naruto/v53/c498/17.html http://www.mangahere.com/manga/naruto/v53/c499/2.html http://www.mangahere.com/manga/naruto/v54/c504/15.html http://www.mangahere.com/manga/naruto/v54/c505/4.html

And look how Ichigo acts despite knowing everything http://www.mangahere.com/manga/bleach/v58/c536/17.html http://www.mangahere.com/manga/bleach/v58/c536/18.html http://www.mangahere.com/manga/bleach/v58/c536/19.html http://www.mangahere.com/manga/bleach/v58/c537/15.html

See the problem here ? I probably might of even excuse the massive inconsistencies if Ichigo was being moved in some way by the story however Ichigo is almost entirely without emotion, either that or he's intentionally as bored as we are with this horrible retcon and aware of how contrived and forced it is.I mean i'm not expecting him to be happy about his mothers loss but he doesn't at least shed a tear of his mother's loss ? He doesn't get enraged by the fact his mother died ? Good lord, Ichigo looks more bored than angry.

So i hope this case against Bleach further proves not only it's  inferiority to Naruto in every single aspect   but explain how Bleach  lost  3 million readers within the last  3 years, no longer  even  ranks within the  Top 10 manga series in sales,  has  gotten critical panning by alot of  reviews with regards of it's  recent  volumes while  Naruto stood either 2nd or  3rd in sales and size of readership   and  Tokrio  replacing Bleach  as the third mascot of Weekly Shonen Jump along with Naruto and Luffy. Hell  just  a  year  ago  Bleach was cancelled   and  replaced  with Spring Time of Youth, a series spin off   based on  Rock Lee,  a  character who's only   9th  place within the  Naruto popularity polls, yeah when you lose your spot to a character who's not even within the Top  5 most popular characters  within the series.

And before you mention Fairy Tail's  recent postponement, it was postponed, not cancelled. Fairy Tail is on reruns mode and to the best of my knowledge, hasn't been replaced by  anything.

Therefore i've proven my superiority to you and Naruto's superiority to Bleach. Naruto is far from perfect and has alot of  flaws within the series  but to say it's anywhere as bad or has anywhere near as many flaws as Bleach  let alone inferior to that pile of crap takes some strong blind devotion to Bleach  or alot of drugs!
