Bleach chapter 356 color spread

And the color spread this week is:

Taaan Daaaaan! A super pimpin' portrait of Renji donning purple shades; accented with an ostentatiously bedecked bolster cushion, solidifying his mac daddy status. Heh.

Personally, I'm thrilled that Kubo is drawing portraits of the boys too. I was a little tired of all the mammaries, so this kind of male fanservice is glorious. I'm desperately hoping for a nii-sama or an Ishida portrait next, so MAKE IT HAPPEN KUBO!

Ok that's just cool. :) Renji needs some love. ^^ We'll probably get all the boys but is it too much of me to want/ask for Grimm and Ulqui to? lol!

[khyata.livejournal.com]

Yeah, seeing Renji all pimped out makes it almost a certainty that we'll see all the boys, yayyy! All I could think of was nii-sama and Ishida as soon as I saw this, hahaha.

Oh, an Ulq and/or Grimm solo portrait would hit the stratosphere of awesomeness, so lol! You're not alone. Though my inner cynic says that we wont see any arrancar in these portraits, sigh. :(

I find him horrid in that pic XDD *gets shot*

Seriously, I don't know WTF Kubo had in mind, but this is simply horrific: Renji looks off, chubby (his face) and the braids? He never wore them well, IMHO XD

At least, his tattoos are partly covered so I don't have to freak out about that XD

I understand why no one bothered describing this pic LOL XD But yeah, this is a nice change from the boobies spreads :elmo Unless we must now consider Renji as one of the girls? *gets shot again XD*

[khyata.livejournal.com]

I'm just relived that we got a boy for once. Meaning I can hope for Ishida or nii-sama or Shuuhei, tee hee!

[mikados.livejournal.com]

OH YESYESYES!!! I <3 this portrait of Renji nomenomenom <3 Ohh please Kubo-sensei let it be Ishida next pleeease ^_____^

[khyata.livejournal.com]

Ohh please Kubo-sensei let it be Ishida next pleeease ^_____^

That was my FIRST thought when I saw this spread, LOL! xD

[misumaru.livejournal.com]

I will quite happily stare at this picture from the mouth downwards, but... Renji, sweetie, I know you have terrible fashion sense, but what on earth made you pick that sunglasses/bandana/braids combo? O_o

Still, I'd much have this than the girls again. :3

[khyata.livejournal.com]

I wish his hair was simply down, no braids or complicated hairstyling. I think that that would have looked far better. But I'm totally with you on the 'rather have this than the girls' part. HELL YES. :3

[lady-leia-solo.livejournal.com]

OMG! I saw the spread on BA and yes Renji looks damn fine in his color spread though, I want his clothes though. I agree with you though that we finally get a color spread with the boys though, it's about damn time baby XD

[khyata.livejournal.com]

IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME, INDEED. 8DDD

I really like his shades. I still haven't decided as to whether they look good on him or not, but I like them. o.o

[shynishyshallow.livejournal.com]

...is he wearing Byakuya's scarf in a place of bandana?

[misumaru.livejournal.com]

His scarf's kind of green... But we can pretend, right? :P

[karkashan.livejournal.com]

Now that's a pair of some pimpin' shades...

[secila80.livejournal.com]

Ahhh, Kubo, what did you do to Renji?! Why does he look like a pimp?!! You know, he does look a bit groggy. Maybe Matsumoto got him drunk and decided to braid his hair and make him wear pimptastic purple sunglasses and sat him on a pimptasticly ostentatious sofa -- cause you know Renji would never sit so comfortably on something so posh.

[karenai.livejournal.com]

So maybe after a few spreads of individual boys, he brings out BOYS WITH TINY TOWELS AT THE HOT SPRINGS.

I'm actually kind of relieved to see his tattoos. I was looking at promo pics from the new video game and it had Renji's chest... tattoo-less. Sigh. It was present-time, too.

[misumaru.livejournal.com]

You're kidding me - was this HTS6? In game or promotional shots? They normally have a topless Renji costume as well... :(

[gully-moe.livejournal.com]

Purple glasses. O_O

Not a Renji fan, but I liked him best in the spread going up the stairs with Ichigo and Chad.

[vicious-melange.livejournal.com]

I think Renji doesn't look particularly good in this spread (it's the braids, methinks), but I love the fact that

1) It's a Renji color spread <3

2) It could mean that after all the girls spreads, it's the boys' turn (yeah, we're closer to boys version of the bikini spread 8D)

3) the pose and the couch are super sexy

When are you going to give us a Renji with his hair down color spread, Kubo? 8D

OMG OMG OMG THE CUSHION! THE CUSHION! THE CUSHION IS THE SEXIEST THING!

[antoinetteiv.livejournal.com]

OK OK OK OK so I'm using a computer right now were it doesn't let me see the color spread, (will get to laptop very soon!) but I'm hearing you praise a cushion Deb!!!O______O A CUSHION!!!!!!<33333333333
WE ARE PROPHETS RECIEVING REVELATIONS!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[nels-snape.livejournal.com]

oooo~ *likes this color spread a lot* Renji! Finally! <3
And yeah I agree, a color spread of Byakuya would be great *misses*

[blackmarquise.livejournal.com]

So, I like the color spread:
I think Renji 's hot and all.
I also agree that the glass and bandana combo is too much.
But , it 's still renji!!! I just want to jump him ( don't we all?)
I love the way his looking at us...
Does anyone know what the text is saying?

[peca-06.livejournal.com]

OOOOOH not bad *fufufu* my sister will be happy. She is "in love" with Renji and his tattoos. I have to agree with what you said Khyata. I was getting sick of busty ladies and Matsumotos in dominatrix outfits XDDD. I was hoping Kubo would start making some nice sexy BOY spreads and this is very refreshing. Ishida would be lovely *drools* (I am very content with the Ichigos I've been getting, but If he draws him again and without a shirt soon I won't complaint either XDDD). Thanks for posting this. I can't wait for the HQ one so my sis can drool over it LMAO! that'll be fun to watch ^_^.

[girls-are-weird.livejournal.com]

RENJI! awesome =3

love the clothes. love the pose. love the ambiance. HATE that thing on his head. it's dismal. *shakes head*

let's keep going with the boys, then, kubo-sensei. that means: ISHIDAYESPLZ.

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

Look, the last time we saw Mats before she got her color page she was missing a kidney and her fans got SKIN AND SERVICE GALORE. Ishida fans need this sort of thing. Our boy is amputated and gutted and until we see him next in the manga--YES, KUBO-SENSEI, A SEXY COLOR PAGE OF UYRUU PLEASE! <3

[naviji.livejournal.com]

All I care about is the fact that its...

RREEENNNNJJJJIIIIII <33333333333333

[khyata.livejournal.com]

I KNEW you would be happy! :D

[rionarch.livejournal.com]

[khyata.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, ok now that song is stuck in my head. o__o

[skyspat.livejournal.com]

Not keen on the braids or the shades, but the open shirt and the glimpse of tattoos, HELL YES. Renji has always been my no.1 Bleach hottie so I am SO happy to see him have his own spread.

I hope this doesn't mean something horrible is gonna happen to him @_@

[karenai.livejournal.com]

He, Rukia, and Chad, are all going to end up squished under Yammy's butt.

I'm actually not happy about this at all.

[cyanglow]

Too much clothing, Kubo. Nothing beats this Renji:

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

I must say. You're right. NOTHING will ever beat that Renji right there. That was the sexy Renji to kill all sexy Renjis.

Boys

[grrlgamer4ever.livejournal.com]

Well I'm not a huge Renji fan, but I hope this means there's other boys soon. I wouldn't mind Ishida or Byakuya, but what I'm really hoping is that Kubo will grace us with an Ulquiorra color spread. <3

[saiyanzrepublik.livejournal.com]

ZOMG THIS IS TOO HOT.

LOVE IT.

;D

[xilvrin.livejournal.com]
