If I don't say something now I'm going to pop!

The last few weeks have seen a flurry of complaints about Ichigo's characterisation including such staments that 'he's not himself,' 'he's just an empty shell' and others along similar lines. After the most recent chapter I finally had to step up and say something in Kubo-sensei's defence. Specifically everyone who is making these complaints is dead wrong.

( How that I have your attention and ire! )

So in conclusion what we seeing at the moment may not be Ichigo as we normally know him but it is indeed Ichigo. In fact I would go further and say that it is Ichigo truly in harmony with himself in a way that he's never been before. So all I can say to this new state is VIVA ICHIGO!
