Ichigo Verses Kenpachi Zaraki... A fight to the death?

This is a thrilling comic full of suspense and action. It is about Ichigo Kurasaki trying to make his way to save Rukia Kuchiki. Instead he stopped by the 11th division captian Zaraki Kenpachi. Both with immense reiastu (spritual power) it is a fight to the death. Kenpachi has never had so much fun, fighting an opponent as strong, maybe stronger than he is! As for Ichigo, he does not want to waste his time, he needs to save Rukia! Instead of spoiling the book how about you read it? It is one of my favorite books and I highly recommend this book. Enjoy!

Interesting End to the fight with Kenpachi

As the bunch are facing multiple challenges while trying to save Kuchiki Rukia, Aizen Sosuke is finally labeled as deceased. More tensions break between Soul society. Sado falls to Kyoraku, captain of 8th squad. Kyooraku, who hates fighting, spares him. Inuoe and Ishida aren't in this book. Ichigo is still at it fighting Kenpachi. When he finds that the sword Kenpachi has is nameless, Ichigo gets (in my opinion, stupid) arrogant in thinking that it's easy to beat him. Kenpachi than stabs him, and Ichigo's sword breaks. Stopping time, Zangetsu comes up. Next thing is a spoiler. Get the volume if you want to know. Meanwhile, Ganju and Hanatarou have come to the tower of repentance. But Ganju recognizes Rukia as the Shinigami who killed his brother. But too much time is wasted by Ganju being stubborn. Byakuya, like a hawk on prey, comes on the bridge (complete with throwing out tons of reiatsu(spiritual pressure)). Excellent volume. Definitely keeps you on your toes for the next one.

Chad is down, will Ichigo fall as well?

In this, the thirteenth volume of Bleach, almost the entirety of it is focused on Ichigo's continuing fight with 11th Company Captain Kenpachi (Kenny) Zaraki... it is, for lack of better terms, near epic... and the battle swings both ways several times as we gain insight and clarity into their motives and their relationships with their respective Zanpakuto swords. Meanwhile, elsewhere in the soul society, word is traveling down the ranks of the various companies concering the apparent murder of Captain Aizen... not to mention that Ganju is closing in on Rukia's location, but is someone waiting to prevent them? The art is as crisp as usual and the story flows as per normal, so if you're familiar with the volume spanning fights of series like Bleach, you'll not be disappointed. My only beef (storywise) is that Orihime and Uryu are MIA in this book, after a fatefull meeting was foreshadowed in the last volume. Ah, well. Pick it up, as Bleach, Vol.13 is a decent read in the continuing series.
