Bleach - Chapter -108
Turn Back The Pendulum
This chapter lives out of the series normal chronology so, I’m considering it to be a one-shot, although I’m not certain. The chapter number "-108" means this happened 108 chapters before chapter 1. I will now be moving this to the Bleach Section.
I loved this chapter. It goes back a century in the plot and shows us what things were like when Urahara was in Soul Society and Aizen was still A lieutenant. But, there’s more surprises.
I recognized Aizen immediately from the first panels. He goes to his captain. Although the hair was a little different, I though this shinigami to be Ukitake. And then the surprise. He was Hirako Shinji! And some of the others that belong to the Vaizard were also there.
The story in itself isn’t important, but it was really cool to see all this characters come together and interact. Kyourako has some funny moments with his lieutenant.
Kyourako talks about the Zero Division. This division consists of powerful captains and protects the royal family. This means there’s still some strong shinigami left besides the captains of the Gotei 13. So, even if Aizen gets the Key, he still has to go through the Zero Division.
Also, I though Aizen hadn’t turned evil yet at this time, but the last panel shows otherwise.
All in all, I really liked this chapter and wouldn’t mind some sequel chapters.
Yeah, this chapter wasn’t a one shot. Kubo said this will be on for 8 weeks, so we’ll get a continuation for it:)
