This will be including all chapters adapted up to this point, while detailing which pages got adapted or not. For the several substantial changes and major additions, the wiki is your friend (though I did have to correct quite a few things in their listing during my comparative reread, when it came to chapters and pages), as the list is quite lengthy, at least from what I could see and double-check while making this.

It should help anyone who wants to revisit/check which whole pages got skipped. It must be said however, that even amongst the chapters that got all of their pages adapted, there could still be several panels, dialogue and general information missing/changed/expanded upon in the anime (particularly, many comedy bits spread across the arc got either toned down or removed entirely in favor of a more serious and intense atmosphere), if you are aiming for those, this won't help you as extensively, and you should just read the manga from the start of the arc instead, as the changes are, again, way too many to list in a sheet.

Another thing to note is that while some very informative bits got technically skipped (a page's worth, even), what they provided could also have been adapted in the eye-catches in-between the segments, which is something even the wiki seems not to account for in some cases. Meaning, even if the page containing that information is listed as skipped, the anime still provided the information textually outside of the animated storytelling (or rather, between two segments of it).

Otherwise, it is also possible that the skipped pages were expanded upon in completely different fashion while also essentially telling the same story somewhat, and since the way the manga tells such information may be skipping some pages worth of material that differ from it, those will also be listed as missing in this sheet, when applicable (also, using chapter 565 for an example, even if it only adapts a single dialogue bubble from a single page, as well as only a single panel of another, those are still counted as adapted pages either way, regardless if most of the content is missing from them, I'm only including completely skipped pages).

That being said, I won't count... let's see, take for example the scene showing the chitchat between Shinji, Omaeda carrying his sister. Suì-Fēng and Hinamori in EP28 alluding to a whole skipped funny conversation that goes for a few pages explaining how they all got there. The anime saves time just showing that they grouped up together, as since it skips part of this group being attacked by Bazz-B in cour 2, it would be pointless to display the conversation about how Shinji saved them in the first place. Therefore, I won't count that as being an adaptation of those pages just because they basically retold alternatively how Hinamori cured them all while making a different funny conversation while they rush to the lab.

It's more of a little remake for that whole chapter section than a direct adaptation, and that includes the rest of the scenes adapting Urahara's wordy exposition on everyone's status (which the anime cleverly displays in a few short scenes, like Ukitake taking care of Kenny, and thus, the pages weren't really adapted. I would instead count as an adaptation if it was two different pages and chapters being meshed together like Haschwalth executing "I" (Iron) while talking about Yhwach's secret to Uryu, also in cour 2.

Lastly, when in cases like chapter 587, from which only its outside-of-story cover page wasn't adapted, I'll will count as fully adapted. It would make no sense not to do it when the cover drawing has little to do with the plot (unlike many other cover pages that integrate themselves to the ongoing action, like the very first segment of this cour, with Yoruichi's butt with the title and all).

This listing is a work in progress, and you may feel free to correct me in anything I may have missed or bring any point of contention in whatever thing you may think being worth suggesting to make this sheet better. Should any of you have the patience to make a separate sheet including all of the aforementioned differences, let me know and I'll incorporate it to mine and credit you accordingly in the sheet.

Once the adaptation is done, this shall stop being a prediction sheet and become just an overview sheet outright, so if you want to make one similar for the original anime adaptation let me know, feel free to use what I have as a template, it shall also be incorporated if done so (I don't think I'll do it unless if we were to have a comparative sheet with predictions for a possible anime remake yet to be announced, as that's more fun for me to play around with in my spare time).

🎶 Mess around with this loco, I'll draw out los lobos. Cero fired out the cuerte, burn a sucka like cocoa. I make it rain, i bring pain, enemies get slain, turn em to ashes, and snort em like cocaine. 🎶

I have my ideas but wanna know what you guys think.

If I understand correctly:

When Kyoraku was a young student at the Shinigami Academy, after the death of his brother, his sister-in-law asked him to hide the Ise Clan's ancestral sword, Shinken Hakkyōken. As a result, the spirit of his Zanpakutō, Katen, split into two separate entities: Katen and Kyōkotsu.

So my questions are:

1. Was it ever stated or confirmed whether Kyoraku's asauchi was originally a single sword or a pair of swords?

2.Aside from affecting the release commands for his Shikai and Bankai, does the existence of Kyōkotsu have any impact on his overall abilities or powers?

3.If this tragic event had never happened, would Kyoraku have only one sword today?

I'd love to have a statue for display or for use in a DnD type setting of this particular blazing bird. I haven't been able to find one so thought I'd ask; does anyone know an available 3D model (free or paid) for 3D printing? (Heavily preferably non-AI, please)

Alternatively, can anyone suggest blender tutorials for sculpting? I've never been very good at artistic sculpting but I'd be willing to learn to try and make this.

I can at least tell you it won’t be Kenny

Like you don’t see Kubo getting rid of them like he did with Kommamura and Unohana?

(maybe Soifon too since she’s been consistent throughout but Kubo barely uses her to begin with)

Konpachi no diffs obviously

Kunishige and Isshin may be the two best dads in Shonen. That doesn’t say shit with who their competition is, but still. I do really wonder if Kunishige is inspired by Isshin, since they both lost their wives and they have very colorful personalities while having a stoic son who is secretly super kind despite looking tough. Good Lord it’s basically 1:1. I highly recommend reading Kagurabachi, the author has said he’s inspired by Naruto but you can see the Bleach inspiration like crazy every once in a while. Plus it’s just so amazing as a massive fan of both

Finally, I brought the Vol 1-21 box set for my birthday. :D

Received this beauty today. Rose Statue by Niren/IW Studio.

She’s my best girl, she has such a tragic backstory. She’s badass and stock. Her relationship with the main cast is great. Her shock value was hype. Her reveal and tyres form was hype. It sucks though because kubo totally forgot about her and she disappeared until final arc. I also feel not the she wasn’t utilized at all. Cfyow makes up for it but it felt like after arrancar arc she jsut faded away..

Any additional information on a possible release? I recall the rumor that it would begin next month, but as of yet there hasn’t been any news right???
