Chapter 334 spoiler of spoilers!!!!

[http://users.livejournal.com/_debbiechan_/]

I'm directing you to the spoilers because I can't help it--this week I want to talk about the chapter NAO! Spoilers gratis of 69 of 2ch, Spacecat of Bleach Asylum and translation by Danna here



So, as we all expected, the thrower of the fireball of last week's cliffhanger wasn't Uchiha Sasuke with his goukakyu no jutsu! IT WAS MOMO! We have Aizen calling her a trifle. We have Hitsugaya's reiatsu becoming disordered. We have Matsumoto not quite trusting her. We have Momo showing her stuff. We have, after two long horrible years of ohmygdKUBOhowCOULDyou? , a wonderful fiesty beloved character reviving out of a love coma to show that she can fight for the friends she betrayed for an illusion. And is this the perfect prelude to showing Orihime coming out of her own self-doubt and hesitancy to fire Tsubaki?

I'm so psyched!
 

Next week, a color spread.

It's about time.

YES! To both of those!

I'm so glad! I have never liked it when people have made comments about her pathetic character, so I am glad that she is going to have the highlight.

That is wonderful to hear!! Momo snapping out of it and channeling all that feistiness and anger towards fighting the enemy and helping her friends. I am glad to see that she isn't in a confused daze anymore. Show Aizen your not as weak minded as he thought you were!! YOU'RE STRONG!!! Yes, a wonderful prelude for Orihime too ^_^!

Oh boy, I see good in Momo but I still get the feeling she's going to fall back to Aizen. Although if this is a prelude to Orihime fighting Ulquiorra then Ichihime fans will be screaming canon like never before and thus the ship battle will only grow stronger.

I MISSED YOU SO MUCH MOMO ♥!

Debbie, tell your boyfriend that if Momo gets killed by some stupid arrancar, I kill him myself XD;;

[khyata.livejournal.com]

Oh god, its about DAMN TIME.

Two things:

- Momo, don't backtrack and succumb to Aizen's wiles.

- Hitsugaya, don't you DARE TRY TO PROTECT HER. Let the girl fight, FFS.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!! SO HAPPY HINAMORI'S BACK!!!! I can't wait to read the chapter!!

*does a happy dance in her swivel chair*

[celemna.livejournal.com]

STILL NOT BUYING IT.

If Hinamori can sell me, I will bow before the fountain of Kubo Tite, but until then she's still annoying to me D:

[araine.livejournal.com]

But I wanted cross-fandom hijinks!
*pouts*

Oh well, I is cool and happy with Momo.
Really, I am.

[kohi-no-tora.livejournal.com]

I'm going to have to go against the trend her and say Nuts! I was hoping for Vizard, Isshin and Ryuken, Team Urahara or some combination of the three.

[ab-jaded.livejournal.com]

It could be momo

But maybe it was Nanao - Nanao is a kidou master, and she haven't had so much light in the mangá for some time. Mabe it's time to show her zampakutou.

[moezychan.livejournal.com]

*laughs at the Sasuke remark* YAY! MOMO's back! I was hoping I was right!!!!! And I'm right! *jumps for joy* WE HAVE MOMO!

[idnh-azuresky.livejournal.com]

See, I hadn't liked Momo when I was reading the manga only - I thought she was weak-willed, obsessed, etc., etc. Then I saw the anime - and on that infamous part when she snaps her zanpakutou and charges at Gin, she had me sold. I really admired that kickass - yes, it was kickass - attitude of hers, when she didn't hesitate to go against an obviously stronger opponent to avenge the one she respected and loved.

Was she wrong? Well, yes, but others like, say, Ichigo, aren't much better about rushing with wrong conclusions. Should she have maybe thought deeper before going against Hitsu? Maybe, but he himself understood that she was under a lot of stress and confusion. I'm actually damn proud that she didn't just sit in her jail and just rock back and forth weeping for herself. She took action to do the right thing, even if it was hard for her.

What I didn't like was her part right after she woke up, when basically her role was helping everyone's favourite character, Hitsugaya, develop angst and deep hidden sadness and resolve to help his friend blah blah. So I hope it's not something similar again, when she falls back and it just creates oh-so much pain for Hitsu. Falling back won't bother me as much if it's for her own development, not others. So here's to hoping her role will be more for herself from now on!

Just one another note to already too-long comment: anyone notice the difference in Gin and Aizen's reaction to their vice-captains? Gin's proud of Kira; Aizen doesn't give a damn. Too bad we didn't get to see Tousen's reaction to Hisagi, although I guess the bond there isn't as complicated as the other two.

I want to join the Kubo-harem with you at this moment Debbie! I love Momo and I hates not being able to defend her from what people say, because they are true, and hated Kubo for that one chapter where she wakes up and proves herself to be completely physco.

[nooziewoozie.livejournal.com]

Lulz at Saucegay. You know, there was a time when he was twelve and wangsty, and dare I say, almost interesting. Now he's out pirouetting with his eyeballs. I mean, there's only so much you can stuff in your eyeballs. Jeez.

And yay! Momo is a) back! and b) hopefully not psycho and/or a fangirl! (Huh. It struck me that both of those are almost interchangeable.)

[balladbird.livejournal.com]

I'll take Momo's turn-around with a grain of salt for now. She's fighting without looking at Aizen, after all. I'll be a little disappointed if the readers are forced to accept that she resolved all of her emotional problems off-screen, without so much as a soliloquoy to show the transition. I don't think that's the case now, though.

we'll probably be asked to accept Momo's recovery at face value for now, with her true resolution not being until she's face to face with Aizen again.
