It will because Bach is also Aizen. Everything according to keikaku.

So I totally read your comment as "... has to do with Bleach" had me confused for like 30 seconds lol
Bleach needs Aizen back as the main antagonist so bad, I don't care how much shenanigans Kubo has to pull just make it happen!
"Manhwa" is the actual Korean word for "comics". "Manfra" is just ridiculous gibberish.
Not calling it "bande dessinée" simply because the style was inspired by Japanese comics is absurd on several levels.

Bleach 536
Cute chapter. It certainly explained a lot of stuff. Hopefully we get a decent explanation about how Masaki died. I would have liked more stories centered around Masaki and Isshin.
Naruto 629
Kakashi used Talk-no-Jutsu. It doesn't affect Obito. My god. His reasons are horrible. Rin is fake because she died. You're a fake because you broke your promise. Please stop. Obito wants to put the entire world in an illusion of eternal happiness because he thinks the world is fake. He wants to make a fake world because he thinks that the current one is fake.
By the way, how did the Village of the Mist find out that Rin could be turned into a Jinchuuriki? Or was she just being used as a transport so the Five-Tailed Beast could pop out of her like a chestburster alien? So many questions...
One Piece 708
I'm interested in what Don Chinjao's "real plan." Bartolomeo looks to be an important character in the future. Cavendish doesn't feel that necessary though. Unless he gets more backstory, he'll probably end up being a one-shot character that Oda cameos on his title-cards.

I'm not sure what basis they have for this claim -- maybe something they saw in the issue that wasn't included with the spoiler pics -- but Manga-News seems to believe that Aku no Hana is heading towards an ending soon. Apparently something Oshimi said in his author's comment for the issue?

One Piece 708
Lots of things are happening with characters I still don't care about, so it's basically a giant mess that I don't care about.

He said it wasn't the final episode yet. I believe that's all.
Seems to me they misunderstood: the author just said that because the latest episode has a "happy ending" feel to it.

Bach is Aizen's father.
Aizen has Quincy powers too.
Didn't use them because no fucks were given.
Aizen is then the father of all the Stern Ritter? Why? Because fuck logic, he's goddamn Aizen.
Soul King then turns out to be evil and drove the Quincy and Shinigami to war because it amused him.
Straight up wackiness. 
I think this is highly likely.

That last one would not surprise me in the slightest. Shit none of that would surprise me at this point.

I dont understand why Soul King would be evil, what has he been doing for 1000 years or whatever, just twiddling his thumbs and sipping tea?
Well that's effectively what he's been doing through the entire show's run so far, so it's not a hard sell to extrapolate backwards

Perhaps he got bored?
Shit, if I was being perfectly honest, if I were in his position, I'd be doing some things for my own amusement as well.
Maybe not THAT severe, but I would nonetheless.

Is Arakawa going to be able to do Silver Spoon and that adaptation manga at the same time? And license Silver Spoon already someone!

We still know very little about the Soul King or what purpose he actually serves correct?

Only thing we know is that his design looks like a prototype/concept art of Dr. Manhattan.
Not that that means anything, but it's worth noting nonetheless.
Angry Grimace
Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
He's going to be chaotic neutral; one of those Gods who just destroy mindlessly (these occur a lot in Science Fiction/fantasy)
We don't know how long this adaptation is going to be or how long SS is supposed to run.
Shojo pick isn't surprising. General winner is awful.
Edit: no idea what the other general winner is about.
Looks like a seinen comedy-drama baseball manga whose main character wants to make lots of money.
I like Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso, if only it gets updated more often. Prison School winning makes me laugh.

I really hope thats not the case, would definitely put Bleach on a path towards having a really awful ending.
It's already on that path, at this point we may as well hope that we get the most entertainment value available on the way.

Aizen wins would be anything but an awful path
I mean the current path is going to be awful. Aizen winning would be so bad it would loop back around to amazing.
Guys, Aizen is done. He's been reduced to secondary character. Just accept and let it go.
Naruto
Okay, poor choice of word aside, I think people are really missing Obito's point. He doesn't blame Kakashi for Rin's death and he bringing Rin back to life via Edo Tensei or Rinne Tensei doesn't mean shit to him. For him, the root of all evil is the Shinobi system. He hates it, and bringing Rin back wouldn't do anything to change the system, we could say that a revived Rin would be as much as a fake to him. For him, mass hypnosis is the only possible way to end the Shinobi system. Naruto believes in forgiveness instead and Obito mocks him for it, thinking Shinobi will never let got their hatred.

A girl by the seaside-END
Finally decided to start reading this manga this month. I read the last 100 pages today and didn't see the second to last chapter coming at all. Spoilers contain late chapter spoilers but not with much detail.
Overall, once you read this, you'll be hooked until the end. It's really another great series by Asano, not as good as Punpun, but up there. All that's left is to catch up on Goodnight punpun. Read up to page 125 before but stopped. Really looking forward to anything Asano makes in the near future.

Seeing a completely different Isobe not only in terms of looks but personality as well shocked me. Someone who was gloomy and depressed, saying his old brother cast a curse on him, etc into someone happy was strange lol. However, it seems things doesn't end well since the police comes to him after the last interaction with Koume.

Naruto A-
Excellent chapter, Rin's death explained and Obito's motivations further detailed.
I'm guessing that Obito wasn't really stabbed through the heart and what we're seeing is genjutsu.
Bleach F+
Boring chapter. We really didn't need all those pages about how the two fell in love.
One Piece
I don't even care.

Yeah, you don´t know what you are talking about. First it was never shown how Masaki died. There was a mystery about that which the Bleach fandom have speculating for a long time. Secondly she already lost her power when Isshin saved her. Third you don´t know what a plot hole is.
No, it´s not something he made up last week. It was something carefully planed for a long time, or else Kubo would have showed us how Masaki exactly died, and Grand Fisher remembering killing her.
Aizen know about Ichigo his whole because he helped creating him when he created the hollow which Masaki in which bit Masaki and almost turned her to a hollow, then she needed Isshin´s help to keep her hollow constrained.
Ichigo awakened his shinigami powers because of Rukia.
Ichigo awakened his hollow powers later on.
Ichigo awakened quincy powers by directly contacting quincies in a war.
Hahahahaha, Jump tries to push Toriko all the time for it to get this somewhat ok sales. Reborn sold better than Toriko iirc.
SNJ is a sales beast. I did not know that.
We never saw how Masaki died.
Kubo did not retcon anything. We never saw how she died.
Ichigo´s powers awakened because he come in contact with other powers. That seems to be really hard to understand to you.
Highly likely.
Aizen is not done, not by a long shot.

Shinobi no Kuni End
The story was great. The art was good. It could've been longer. 9.5/10.

For real, what part of that screams good guy?
Freesia volume 3
This volume is way more confusing than the ones before. What's real? What isn't? It's not only the characters in the story having some type of mental issues, reading this is giving me mental issues too, as I fail to understand certain relationships, like, for example, the one between the protagonist and what I believe is his live-in girlfriend, who was happily fucking someone in front of him just in volume 2 while he was having breakfast... but was that part real? Or was it an hallucination? Fuck if I know, but it's still interesting even if all is so fucked up.
Full Swing volume 4
The whole narrative style keeps being pretty cool. It's really interesting to have the author focus on a character (or a trio, in the case of chapter 2 of this volume) and tell that part of their story for one chapter and moving to another character i nthe next, while keeping everyone in the same world, so they always make an appearance, or are background figures. It gives a sense of reality to the whole story.
Another aspect about how good I'm finding this comes from the type of stories. It's always something that, broken down, is pretty simple, but is told well and concisely, making both each tale have a good impact on me as a reader.
Silver Spoon volume 4
Arakawa is great. The story doesn't even start and I already realize how great she is by having Hachiken point to me that the illustration on the rib of the volume is a swindle and before even that, with the illustration after the cover, where everyone isn't smiling anymore as they hold cleaning utensils.
Seeing Hachiken put so much effort into turning Butadon into bacon was inspiring. I can't help but notice how much my appreciation for this character has grown. I didn't like him too much at the start and look at it now, his suffering is worth of appreciation and his struggles have me cheering him on.
Tamako is such a great character, able to destroy everyone's happiness with a simple phrase. I love her.
I'm really curious into finding out what's the deal between Aki and Ichiro, which has Hachiken really troubled.
S.A. Special A volume 4
The best part about this series are the sd reactions. I read a volume and find myself going all d'aaaaw.
Finding out that Yahiro isn't really that big of a piece of shit is disconcerting while seeing Hikari's level of dumbness is both funny and maddening, though more funny as I can't help but laugh when seeing her struggle so much, especially about not realizing her own feelings as well as Kei's ones.

I am Korean.
I still think that the Soul King's not a person at all which is why it horrified Aizen so much.

I second these:
Check out some of these:
Saikyou Densetsu Kurosawa / Legend of the Strongest Man, Kurosawa
Good-bye (TATSUMI Yoshihiro)
Kami no Kodomo / Gods Child
Sekai no Owari to Yoakemae / Before Dawn and the End of the World
Samehada-Otoko to Momojiri-Onna / Shark Skin Man and Peach Hip Girl

I think the ultimate would be if it's just something that eats SS souls and shits them back into the human world.
Manga gaf, I need your help.
If you are willing to help, a while ago I had started reading a manga and saved it for later but forgotten the name of it.
I can discribe it.
There is this girl with red hair and convinces the lad to become her knight. And she is like a demon or something, there is this maid with glasses.
