Also
>Rukia is now Abarai Rukia and lives in Renji and her house.
Didn't she keep her name?

Lisa? Well that's neat.

We're definitely missing illustrations. Where's the middle one?

>Itsygo confessing
>to Orihime
Absolutely disgusting.

To irrelevant for the guy who took the photos, I guess.

To the Hinatafag from the previous thread: give me ten moments of Hinata talking to somebody (and not just replying once with something like 'yes') other than Naruto or thinking of anything that does not relate to Naruto. Heck, give me five. I'll wait. Until then, Orihime is objectively better as a character.

What do you expect? Kubo isn't all about the romantic crap.

What about the Yoruichi/Kira, and Renji sketches then? The novel is suppose to have 10-11 pages of illustrations.

>healer
>useless
ok

Well it makes sense that she would give it up despite Kuchiki being the better name. Her niisama swore on his parents tomb that Rukia would be the last person of Rukongai descent he would welcome in the family. Rukia probably took Renji's name out of consideration for Byakuya.

>Didn't she keep her name?
She uses Kuchiki for the captains meetings. Supposedly, the reason for this is considered "cute"

Maybe Byakuya personally asked her to?

You're talking about quantity over quality right now. Orihime is just the author's waifu. Nothing else. Having a fuckload of scenes doesn't make a character good. Just whored.

I don't know, no matter how much I see canon Ichihime, I just can't warm up to it.

>Orihime is just the author's waifu.

Where do people even get this from? Rangiku was always known to be his favorite since Kubo has stated this fact quite a few times over the years. The only female characters he out-right stated as his favorites were
Yoruichi/Rangiku/Orihime.

Why can't bitter IR cucks just leave instead of crying every single thread

Translation of the invitations

Dear sir/madam season of frosty nights.

(okay that sounds weird in English, but the above is basically a greeting you may find on Japanese Wedding invitations for weddings taking place in December)

We would like to extend our happiness that you are all well. We grew up together from childhood, after getting through the Shino Academy, we stood together on the battlefield gripping our blades in the Gotei 13.

Souls Society was just beginning to recover after the last Great War, wherein we gripped each other’s hand instead of the blade to create a new path.

This time, we have decided to host our wedding ceremony.

With the feeling of gratitude to everyone who we are forever indebted to, we would like to host a small banquet.

Thank you for your continued support, we sincerely request your attendance.

I don't see Rangiku being forced. Even though that would have been a little better than Orihime.

Where was Orihime forced though?

Look at this novel for instance. It's supposed to RenRuki's but Orihime is stealing the show.

wish you kys

Did they ever explain exactly how they replaced the Soul King?

Literally how? We don't even know the entire contents of the novel which is 256 pages. Plus the person providing the spoilers in the first place is a huge Orihime fan. Orihime had quite a presence in one of the previous novels so I don't know why people are surprised.

Will we ever see what happened to Aizen?

According to the second chapter of this novel, Yhwach is the one to replace him or something like that.

But Yhwach is dead

yes, they took yhwachs corpse

back in prison

As I thought, you can't. Hinata's charterization is empty and lifeless, she never feels like an actual human being.

what does that mean exactly

He deaded, but his powers didn't fade away, so they used him like a battery

...

I don't know why you are judging a character by how many people they've spoken to. Are you a normalfag or something?

People on 2ch confirmed that the novel has 10 pages of illustrations. We're missing three and they're the Yoruichi/Izuru, Renji, and Chads sparring partner sketches. If no one posts them by the 27th/28th, I will since my copy should arrive by then.

Thanks Kubo, for fucking everything up

Did they explain exactly why God is a weird dude in a castle?

Kubo never said an RR sketch would be unconvincing, they completely twisted his comment in the novel.

Not explicitely. But the Soul King is heavily implied to be a prisoner deprived of power and body parts at best and a corpse at worst. The Hisagi novel will explain that more probably.

That's hilarious. Especially the concern trolling.

If it's so shitty and bad and un-romantic then why stress it?

I see that this picture has brought in a new wave of salt and Orihime hate.

Good.

Because that's how characterization is built, through the character's thoughts or conversations.

>Kubo is the master of emotion, or at least that's what I felt until my OTP didn't happen

I love tumblr.

What is his real comment?

The tears of shippers are just wonderful.

>Kubo is the master of emotion, or at least that's what I felt until he told me I was delusional. That's when I realized that HE fucked up.

Fixed for this amusing mental state. dat cognitive dissonance.

Which comes from their all around interactions with the world, the character voice and thoughts are justo two of those things.

Nothing will top this one.

This is really getting to them.

It must be hard having to constantly convince yourself that you're right, when reality is so against you delusions. I would feel bad for these Ichirukists if they all weren't so obnoxious.

Oh they were quick to betray their Queen alright.

No. That alone won't carry a character unless the author is trying to tell a story only through imagery, which is not the case here. 'I used to always cry and give up' and Naruto saying she's a shy weirdo are the only things we really get to know of Hinata as a person, independent from her love interest.

...

The day we started getting more spoilers on the novel was also the day it was confirmed that the IR proposal in the musical was indeed fake.

What do they have to say about Ichigo? Or did they already turn on him?

Kuchiki Rukia died so Abarai Rukia could live.

I just feel strangely cheated. On top of all the loose ends he left behind, Kubo has to go and half-ass the completely unnecessary romance parts as well? I don't care who wins what as long as the author actually puts forth some effort.

Underwhelming is a good word to use when describing the ending. Say what you want about Nurudo, but at least that went out with some fanfare and tied things up appropriately (with a exception to the "yeah...sorry" thing)

They turned on Ichigo back in August then loved him again for a bit when the last volume cover was released and he was back to back with Rukia then went back to shitting on him and now they just hate him in general from what he it seems. They only like him when he's with Rukia.

The loose ends are being tied though, little by little. We got info on some of the missing characters in the novel, the prologue talked about SS reforming, and the second chapter talked about the SK.

Are these novels canon?

This novel was supervised by Kubo. I consider it canon, but if you don't then that's that.

>yeah...sorry
He was eating a Milky Way.

What's there to feel cheated about? The manga ended in August. It was known this novel would come out months ago, the assumption was it would have IR and RR. The romance is no surprise.

It includes the extra drawings and comments from Kubo we never got in the final volume. We know the fates of characters like Urahara and Yoruichi now. We know who the new lynchpin is.

I am not mad at this novel at all.

Put it in the manga.

No one's reading or translating this maybe-canon-maybe-not moon runes book shit.

I think most novels had illustrations by Kubo himself, so you may as well consider them canon. As far as I know it's Kubo himself who decides the plot points and the respective writer just puts it into a (for him) natural way + expands on that.

>It's a best girl a.k.a Orihime wins ending
ah, truly a masterpiece

>Orihime
>best girl
Lol, no.

>No one's reading or translating this maybe-canon-maybe-not moon runes book shit.
Someone already translated the prologue and first two chapters.

and the official release date is in three days on top of that

>best girl
No need to go complete retard there, user.

>t.skeletonfag

Assuming this novel reveals the fates and answers questions regarding the futures and relationships of all the remaining characters and that the Hisagi novel answers the things it advertises (Soul King, noble families, Ginjou, Tosen, possibly Hisagi Bankai) in a good way, what missing things would remain?

I can only think of Quincy past and Shinji Bankai.

If it was IchiRuki it would have already been translated.

Look at how triggered you fags get over someone personally thinking Orihime is the best girl.

Nah, the other five light novels haven't even been officially translated.

...

...

People are already reading it. People are already translating leaks. People are already sharing the pictures.

It hasn't even been released yet.

The official release date changed actually since it's already in stock on Amazon.jp. My copy should be arriving either the 27th or 28th.

She's not though, and the people who think she is are wrong.

Wait what? Are those from Komamura's clan?

Look how buttblasted you get over people disagreeing with your retarded opinion.

>The official release date changed actually since it's already in stock on Amazon.jp
amazon gets them ahead just like games. That's why games arrive one day before release (for me). That doesn't change the official release day.

I think she is, and there's nothing you can do it about it. Have fun whining.

Found another good IchiHime doujin today.

And strangely enough, this doujin is years old but pretty similar to the outfits Ichigo and Oriheime have on in the novel.

Scans when it shows up in the mail.

>Childhood friend won
Masaka.

But is it /h/ senpai

I find it funny. God forbid people have different opinions.

These novels might provide good closure.

Have fun having shit taste.

Orihime is underrated just like Riruka.

You have a shit opinion then expect to be called out on it. This is Sup Forums after all.

>Orihime
>Not worst girl
Kill yourself.
