The Bleach Club...2.

[PKMN Trainer Rex]

i know, the name is "Asian Gifts"

Lol, that is so unassuming.

i'm pretty sure not many people want a deadly weapon as a gift

I'm pretty sure males 13-25ish would want a sword as a birthday or Christmas present.

nevertheless, they also have every season of bleach in there INCLUDING the japanese released versions not before aired in the US, the guy there said they have an english subtitle option in there, but no english voices

they also have every issue of the bleach manga, and, including every unreleased in the US japanese books, though they aren't translated, and i cant read japanese, so i'll pass on the manga

Overall sounds like a kicka** store, you should tell them to get some TTGL stuff too.

EDIT: Nice job Ice. I'll be looking forward to the next one.

[minchan]

The Japanese bookstore in NYC that I go to (which is an hour away by train) carries Japanese manga. I buy them, because I can understand a fair bit of Japanese. Also I just like to give my little bit of extra support to the creators... Buying the Japanese and English version just provides extra support! =) And you know, the Japanese ones are cheaper, because they don't include localization costs. They're usually about 5-7 dollars, as opposed to the American releases which go for about 9-12 dollars nowadays. (This is manga in general, not only Bleach. Actually, I think I may have bought a manga volume which was 13 dollars before... Crazy.)

My store doesn't carry the Japanese version of Bleach (or any) anime though... But I think you need a region 2 DVD player for that anyway. Oh wait, actually, I think they might have a couple DVDs of some other anime, like... It might have been the Hetalia movie they had in Japanese, or something? I dunno. But it doesn't matter, because most Americans don't have a region 2 DVD player.

My store carries a few cosplay things, but mostly just some maid outfits, and not many. They have some Bleach (and Naruto, Death Note, etc.) T-shirts and occasionally some plushies of various popular series, like Bleach, Naruto, Hetalia, and some others. Those are the only ones I remember seeing plushies for in the past few times I've been there, but there are probably others... But back to cosplay things, they don't carry swords or anything like that, to my knowledge... They don't have the Bleach shinigami outfit, nor any other popular characters from any popular series... Just a few maid outfits as I mentioned before. They're technically just a Japanese bookstore, so... (They do sell CDs though - various J-pop, J-rock, etc. as well as anime soundtracks, including some from Bleach.)

[arceus03]

I think my replies would probably be the same to the others... yeah.

In a battle against each of the Captains, how would you fare?

    Spoiler:

Yamamoto
I win lol yeah. First thing I would do: RUN LIKE HELL

Soi Fon
Ah ha. She's fast, and I'm slow. Death in two strikes seems unavoidable. >.> The manga doesn't specify what kind of ability she has, but the Bount arc puts her Homonka as... poison. IF it really is a poison, I could simply neutralize it, but if it's her zanpakto's special ability, then I probably wouldn't be able to do anything. Bankai is a different story, since she doesn't like to use her bankai, mine would probably be able to outlast her shikai. XP But in the case of a bankai clash... again, RUN LIKE HELL.

Kira
.... You can't cut water. lol. I'd win.

Unohana
Awwwww. Not gonna fight her XP
Though, if I DO have to fight her...     Spoiler:

Show Spoiler

 
I still wouldn't! XD
 

Momo
lolz. *sizzle* I don't even need to go all out.

Byakuya
Ah, this is interesting. His Senbonzakura looks pretty scary, but my water is actually a perfect counter for his ability. He could blast it away with Kido, though, then send the blades inside, but I would be able to counter it with Kido as well. Woah, my Kido is actually higher than his. XD Plus, his tiny blades only move at high speed, while Tsukibana has both high speed and high pressure. And I can send some water underground while being shrouded with the water (if we're fighting on a solid terrain) to catch him unaware.

His shunpo mastery could be a problem for me if we were to fight unreleased, but in shikai, I have Tsukibana protecting me. Bankai is the same story except with lots more water and lots more pink blades. His Hakuteiken could be a problem for me, but I doubt he would resort to that, unless I would kill Rukia if he is defeated, or something like that. Though, if he does use it, I would try to counter by concentrating a huge amount of water, swirling it as rapid as I can and increasing the pressure as much as I could, while coupling it with a high-level Kido. I would be able to, at least, I figure, cut down the massive damage to maybe, half?

So, er, yeah. I might win, or at least force a draw against him.

Komamura
Giant hand woot. A tough opponent, with 100 Offense, Defense and Stamina, but otherwise lower Intellect and average Kido and mobility. I could probably win, if I can get some water inside him.... And considering that he would love to play with water.. lol.

Shunsui
No way I'd win. His games are too unpredictable. And I doubt that he has shown all his games. Unless, yeah, we had to play Western chess.. *er hem* Though yeah, if he can beat a Primera Espada without going bankai, I shudder to think what his bankai would be.

Hisagi
Ah. Another melee zanpakto. I can simply block that, or pull his scythe in. Then Kido his a*s.

Tousen (I felt like doing this. XD)
I can easily block his shikai. The first one by... plugging my ear with water, then surrounding myself with more water. lol. The second one is with my usual water protection, coupled with Kido, I might be able to block it.

His bankai is a bit similar to Zam's. I might not be able to see, or hear, or even smell, but as long as I swirl the water rapidly inside the dome, I should be fine.

Hitsugaya
rotrum woot Ice woo. Just for the reminder, he can not freeze Tsukibana, before anyone points out. Though, I might still let he freeze Tsukibana on purpose, then when he becomes careless (like Aizen pointed out), I could surprise him from behind.. eh. I might be able to force a draw, or a win.

Kenpachi
God. No way. This guy doesn't know how to stay down no matter how many times you cut him. >.> Still, unless I can cut down his tendons. He's the guy who doesn't seem to mind if my water covers him. If he becomes careless and lets me send Tsukibana inside his body, I could just do that.

Mayuri
I can negate his poisons easily, this shouldn't be a problem. Unless, of course, he comes with a lot of drugs that he can release while battling, airborne, etc. If he does, I'll probably lose, unless I can quickly clean the drug out first before it takes effect. Bankai is the same story over again, more poison and more antidotes. lol. Since poisoning and charging with blades is the only thing that Caterpie can do, I'd be able to defeat Mayuri somehow.

So yeah. If it's solely zanpakto-based, one-on-one, I'd most likely win.

Ukitake
I wouldn't fight him. :3 Just as he wouldn't fight Lilynette, yeah. Poor guy.

I might do one for my Arrancar later, if I feel like it. XD
 

God...I'm going to have to have chapter 13 have a huge recap over what happened. This is the last flashback chapter, since now ALOT has to be done to main story.

Good idea, since honestly... I lost track of your story

I'm back! But I'm so sore >.< Walked 16 hours, over 2 days, with a bag 1/4 of my weight on my back.

Arc Vs Unohana
I agree with all the tea parties that the others have mentioned, but Unohana would win if they both fought together. I think that she would - probably - be powerful enough to rival Yamamoto, if she really went all out. I have no proof to back it up (besides Shunsui being afraid of her), but it's just a "feeling".

Blue Vs Kenpachi
We die from watching.

Welcome back! Had fun?

Heck yeah. Look at her stats. 100 Offense, Intellect and Kido. *shudder* I wanna see her fight soooooo bad >.<

XD WIN

This is my first chapter of my fanfic. I would L.O.V.E some feedback and suggestions!

He... Oh yeah. I forgot, you're a guy. *fails at life*

It's looking good. There are some wrongly-used words and whatnot, but otherwise, it looks fine. And a cliffhanger, oooh!

About the system, though, a diploma? That's certainly something new. We don't exactly know how the shinigami got their zanpakto in the first place, but most fanfics before (that features the Academy) usually have all the zanpakto already with the shinigami, not given at an event or something. If that made sense

Answering the Captain topic made me think of another one:

How would you fare against the 10 Espada?
I'll answer this later. Use spoilers, maybe? Since some of the members only watch the dubs, IIRC.
Also, you can use your Arrancar profile if you want to. Or both, if you feel like writing a long-arse post

[MasterCharizard15]

Describe your reaction to the death if each squad Captain (Minus your own), bonus points if you can tell how you would react if more than half were killed.

...morbid topic FTW!

I'll answer the Espada question later....

Shinigami first. :P

Yammy
Ewwwwwww. Massive eww time alert. Apart from a big body and immense strength, he lacks the strategy in fighting and would randomly fire off Cero, Bala and punches. Either way, released or not, I'd get Tsukibana inside him and damage his heart/brain. He's too big, I can choose the entry points from anywhere.

Starrk
Starrk would be a tough opponent. He can fire off his Cero at amazing speed, and if he calls out his wolves, I'm dead meat. So.. RUN LIKE HELL

Barragan
Ah, this old dude. Honestly, I don't know if I could scratch him at all. He can make Kido rot. I don't know what would happen to water though. I mean... water doesn't rot away. No matter how long time passes, water will still be there. Therefore, if his abilities doesn't affect me, all I need to do would be avoid his Respira while trying to get some water inside his body.... Wait, he's a skeleton. >.> Oh crap. Ah well. I guess I could try breaking his bones or whatever. Also, he hasn't shown any ability to deflect Hado, so I could try that too.

Gran Caida... I don't honestly see how that could be a problem, since he doesn't seem to have any special abilities with that ax. Another problem is that he could probably slow the time around me so I can't run fast enough to avoid his Respira, but he only seems to be able to slow down things that are around himself... So yeah. Back to breaking bones with water. >.>

Harribell
It's going to be a water party! Our abilities are pretty similar. I can't see a way I could abuse Kido in this fight, since... yeah. Electric with lots of water around isn't a good idea when you can control only half of those. In the end, I think it'll be more towards a battle of stamina and intellect; which of us would be wiped out first and make a blunder. In that case, I think she'd win. But if I could get her somehow unaware of Tsukibana (too many water around), I could just probably pull Zetsu. So... draw?

Ulquiorra
I wouldn't fight him, or ILPy is never going to forgive me for eternity. lol. Also, he has that second Resurreccion. *shudder* In any case, I think I'd lose. Again, RUN LIKE HELL

Nnoitra
I think my fight with him would go the same way as Kenpachi. He wouldn't go down that easily when cut, but if he becomes careless I'll cut his tendons... You know the drill.

Grimmjoww
His long blue hair is too sexy, I don't wanna fight him Anyway, he's another one of those speedy physical sweepers like Garchomp Ulqi and Icchi, and I'm bad at countering those. For the third time, RUN LIKE HELL

Zommari
Ah ha. This one I'd win. Pretty certain of it. I could pull a Byakuya if he happens to get my limbs, but since Kido can block his Amor, I'd sit behind a barrier and send Tsukibana to screw him while eating a bag of cookies. Heck, I think Byakuya could have beaten him without even going bankai. His immobility makes him an even more dead meat. His barrier could be tough, but eventually it'd fall down if I hax Kido upon him.

Szayel
Another mad scientist, ugh. Anyway. I could negate his carbon-copy ability by simply enveloping a layer of water over myself. If he happens to make a voodoo doll of me, I'd be able to heal my organs, but it'd still hurt. I'd try to avoid it as much as I could. Last resort would be to slash his wings away if they envelop me. Since he cannot be killed by devouring (who wants to eat him anyway, save for a sick babylike Caterpie?) I'd use the same old way. All in all, his abilities don't really affect me much. I'd be able to win, at least force a draw.

Aaroniero Arurueblarghoweveryouspellhisname
Pretty simple fight. I'd Kido his tank off. His Resurreccion might be enormous, but so is my bankai. And transforming into Unohana won't work, unless he has somehow (EWWWW) eaten Unohana before. He lost to Rukia - that would be a benchmark enough. He could try to mimic Kaien, but Nejibana would be a poor match to my Tsukibana, being fully melee.

All in all, whether I'd win or lose would be based upon whether or not I can pull off Zetsu fast enough while the opponent is unaware. So... 3 losses (Starrk, Ulqi, Grimmjoww), 4 wins (Aaroniero, Szayel, Zommari, Yammy), 3 probably win/draw/lose (Harribell, Nnoitra, Barragan)... Not too shabby.

I'd do my Arrancar version later, if I don't feel too lazy. XD

 

[Da14u.C]

Oh gods.

you're welcome

^ He's our local narcissistic moron =]

LIES! I am extremely humble about my goodlookingness

I'm English, and even I didn't get that worked up about it.

meh. Lame Englishwoman

Welcome back.

A lot of them.

thank you ILP at least SOMEONE gave me a decent welcome back (coughcough)

^ You're a hard worker. And yes, it's correct, I'm pretty sure.

Dauc is back. Good god, where are my earplugs? Whoops, I mean "Hi Dauc, how's it going?" You've missed quite a bit, btw. Most of us have new / revised Zanpaktou, myself included, and several of the squads have new members that have appeared since Golde vanished, so we're having trouble keeping track of them all. Oh, and I created an entirely new fanfiction / RPG character profile.

Why on earth would you need earplugs?
oooh, i feel behind. i guess i will revise my zan after doing a ful review of all of ya'lls its gonna be interesting to see what i come upwith

Golde vanished? YES!!! HAHA!!! I WAS RIGHT!!
I TOLD HIM/HER (i alway forget O.O ) THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE GREAT GRADES IN UNI AND BE ACTIVE AND SHE/HE DID NOT BELIEVE ME!!! HAAAAAAAAAAA

i love being right and since i am always right i just love existing because of how amazing i am

Rank the other Zanpaktou here based on how much you would like to use them?

Oh, jeez, hang on, let me find them all christ almighty >.<

Cell - Siska - Kido

Kusari - Shinkiro - Kido

I'll Rank them later
EDIT: Ranked in Spoiler
    Spoiler:

Show Spoiler

 
1) Kida - Ryookami - Multielement - It's my own, so obviously I prefer it over anyone elses.
2) Arceus03 - Tsukibana - Water - I'm partial to Water types, and Tsukibana is so pretty =3
3) Rotrum - Yuki Sendou - Ice - Also partial to Ice Types as well, and with the revamp long distance attacks would suit my fighting stratedgy
4) Cell - Siska - Kido - I love the shikai because Archery is awesome, and I always loved the idea of charging arrows before firing them with different spells, plus hummingbird, aww.
5) EonMaster - Tanryoku no Rei - Spirit - The only reason this isn't higher is because i'm not really one for close quarter combat, which the Shikai is kinda designed for
6) VizardBlue - Kagebu - Shadow/Kido - Manipulation of shadows and moving through the dark, totally my thing =D
7) Senbonzakura - Mugenyume - Kido - being able to change the state at which somethign exists would be very useful, turning a solid projectile into liquid to reduce damage
8) I Like Pokemon - Kagirinai-Kuuhaku - Time/Space - I would eventually confuse myself XD
9) SapphireDragon - Shippu no Hana - Earth/Wind - Uses the same sort of Element ideas, and the fan reminds me of Temari
10) MasterCharizard - Iroriryuu - Fire - Fire is not my favourite but it has a Dragon Spirit plus I could use Death Canon >D

 

you did not even have the decency to include mine in your ranking
where is the love NL?

p.s. sorry i haven't been online in a bit, i just moved into a new house internet was installed today (you should have seen how facebook-deprived i was.... it was so sad)

btw, pictures are up ojn facebook for those who have me (of my new house). go lookie NL, ILP, flash step, and comment

I'm pretty sure males 13-25ish would want a sword as a birthday or Christmas present.

i agree. when i was 13, I got a legit sword from St Malo in France, and though I am not voilent kid, i was sooooo psyched, i walked around with it everywhere before airport security seized it when i was leaving the country -.-

i need to catch up with bleach!
gonna be fun

[Northern Lights]

^ Suck it up
I forgot about your Zan actually, because you're not with a Squad. Also, no offence, but your not in my Top 10 of Zanpaktous i'd like to use. I HATE Wasps.

Ice Heart: I've come to your graduation so I can whisk you away to my squad =P
I like it, you've set us up quite nicely here, hope you continue.

[I like Pokemon (...)]

@rex: they sell FF swords and SC swords, as well as various other anime weapons, they sell samurai swords, katanas, longswords, broadswords, throwing knives, regular knives, weird scorpion blade gauntlet things, tons of sharp pointy weapons

oh, and they also sell a few asian robes, some buddha statues, and some fairy fanservice statues

If I ever get any money, remind me to waste it on anime stuff, 'k?

i'm pretty sure not many people want a deadly weapon as a gift

I sure do!

    Spoiler:- Chapter 1: First Frost:

Show Spoiler

 

The room was dark. Only a single ray of sunlight dared to enter the confinements of whatever was making its bed here.
“Go fetch Kumo no joō for me.” a man chuckled in a sinister way, almost demonic.
“Yes master.” A more timid voice this time…a girl’s voice.
The eyes of whatever was behind the mask of shadows was planning something, something dark.

A sinister chuckle, possibly the same one at the end of the chapter? But he asked the girl to do the work, instead of himself doing it, so I'm not too sure. Kumo no joou could be a person or it could be a thing: whatever the instructor had on him (inside him?) that the assassin took.

The sun broke through the window and shined brightly into a small oriental home. Heisei awoke from the light pouring into his eyes. The window was open and he could feel the goose bumps rise on his skin. He loved this feeling. He thought it felt fresh and rejuvenating.

New font? o.o

Today was the day of Heisei’s Academy graduation. He had been training there for six years. He and the rest of the graduating class would be receiving their diplomas. He had been waiting for this day for a long while. He planned on heading to the 13 divisions after his graduation to further his training.

Something that just bugs me is the sentence structure. You use too many simple sentences, try and use complex and compound sentences for more descriptive text:
"Today was the day of Heisei's Academy graduation; he had been training there for 6 years. He and the rest of the graduation class would be receiving their diplomas. He had been waiting for this day for a long time, and he planned to go to the 13 Court Guard Squads (this is the official English translation, but I think most people stick with the Gotei 13) after his graduation to further his training."
It flows more easily. If you were speaking the story, you wouldn't pause after every point you made. It's just something that makes it more easy to read.

He stepped outside to see the fully in-bloom cherry blossoms. It was a perfect day for a celebration. He ran his figures through his hair. He could tell it needed combed. He stepped over and looked into a Koi pond. He thought he looked pretty fancy for his graduation.

He heard a rustle in the grass and swiftly looked up. It was his childhood friend Munoda. He was also wearing his graduation cloak.

Again, here. You have 9 sentences, when you could probably cut it down to maybe 5.

“Before I give this student his diploma, I want to say something.” Heisei was surprised that the director had something to say. Was it to put him down, embarrass him? These are all the things he thought.

This was about the time he noticed Captain Kida of Division three. A captain was here to watch his graduation. The director spoke again.
“In all my years of training..” Heisei watched as the old grey haired man continued with his speech. “I have seen many, many bright, powerful students. Of these, Heisei has become one. He has…”

Then Heisei suddenly noticed a black and purplish flash out of the corner of his eye. He turned swiftly but not before he saw Captain Kida flash out of her seat. When he turned he saw the director had fallen to the floor, he was covered in blood. Heisei could hear a sinister laugh in the distance…

That's... very interesting. The director was going to say something good about Heisei, it seems, and the 3rd Captain was likely there to take someone (or maybe specifically Heisei?) into her Squad. That could've been what the director was leading up to.

Kida flashed out of her seat, but I doubt it was her who killed the director, but she could have gone after the actual killer himself. Perhaps I'll just wait for the next chapter.

 

I'm pretty sure males 13-25ish would want a sword as a birthday or Christmas present.

I definitely fit into that demographic.

Welcome back! Had fun?

...Sort of.

Describe your reaction to the death if each squad Captain (Minus your own), bonus points if you can tell how you would react if more than half were killed.
I'll just say I'd be very sad.

thank you ILP at least SOMEONE gave me a decent welcome back (coughcough)

I wonder if I'm too nice to you...

Why on earth would you need earplugs?

This is why:

Golde vanished? YES!!! HAHA!!! I WAS RIGHT!!
I TOLD HIM/HER (i alway forget O.O ) THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE GREAT GRADES IN UNI AND BE ACTIVE AND SHE/HE DID NOT BELIEVE ME!!! HAAAAAAAAAAA

And I'll prove you wrong. Give me 3 years, and I should start Uni (that sounds so far away, and so close at the same time XD).

How would you fair against the Espada?
    Spoiler:

Aaroniero Arururie
Or something like that. Quite easily, I think, if Rukia is on par with him, I should be able to beat him in terms of Me > Rukia > Aaroniero. I don't really have any reason to be particularly weak against him.

Szayel Aporro Grantz
That would be a FUN fight! But ultimately, I'd out-Xanatos Szayel, not unlike Mayuri. To be honest, I think I'd enjoy this fight as much as Blue would enjoy fighting Kenpachi.

Zommari Leroux
I can block his Amor like Byakuya: with Kidou. His defensive shield just makes him a sitting duck to my powers.

Grimmjow Jeagerjacques
His name is hurting my mind.
I'm not so sure. He becomes a lot more powerful in his release state, but I don't have a very clear advantage over him. If he hits me enough times, then I'll probably die quite easily.

Nnoitra Jiruga
He's a short-range fighter, so I have him handled. When I cut him, he probably won't expect anything of it and just regenerate. He's arrogant, but I can beat him with some ease.

Ulquiorra Schiffer
I beat him with my glomp attacks.

Tia Harribel
She's powerful, and she attacks with water. My abilities don't really affect water, so when she releases, I'm pretty screwed.

Barragan Luisenbarn
His powers have no affect against me. He can speed up time so everything rots: I can slow down time equally so I am unaffected. Kidou, however, is useless against him unless I hit point-blank in a blind-spot (which is possible if I don't let him know my abilities until later). Ebony can still be used against him, though, so I can do at least SOME damage, even if it isn't a lot. So draw/win.

Coyote Starrk
While I wouldn't be able to completely counter his ceros, I should be able to hold off most of them. His wolves would probably be unaffected by my powers, and unless he brings out his Reiryoku sword, and let me get close, I can't really hit him. Most of the time, I'll lose.

 

[arceus03]

Old topic. New elements. Get ready for two cool posts 8D

What would your Fullbring be?
Fullbring Name: Queen’s Reign

Item: A black Queen chess piece made of glass, attached to a piece of string that I keep around my right wrist.

Activation description:

I flip my hand and grasp the Queen with my hand. Once activated, the Queen transforms into a long double-bladed staff that can be split into two parts. (Inaba's shikai, Raiku, from the filler, is somewhat how it looks like)

Ability Details:
Queen’s Reign allows me to move in any 8 directions (as in a Queen’s movement in a chess game) without the expense of energy at the speed of sound anywhere in line of sight. The 8 directions are the same as the compass direction, meaning, the 8 directions are at 45 degrees from each other, and only in 2D plane, meaning no dashing upwards or downwards. Essentially, it would seem as if I was teleporting from one place to another. Also, since vision limitation and blind spots and whatnot would allow me to only see at most five directions (left, right, forwards, northeast and northwest), if I were to close my eyes, I would be able to see the remaining 3 directions (backwards, southeast and southwest) in my head. This is mostly useful when I want to dash backwards for certain reasons.

Second ability:
Fullbring Name: Check-

Activation description:
This is an ability that is only available when ILP and I are together. Standing back-to-back and holding our chess pieces in our hands, I say “Check” and ILP says “Mate”. A giant 8x8 chess board springs up beneath our feet. Anyone who is within the range would have to ‘play chess’.

Ability details:
Once inside, everyone (excluding ILP and I) are assigned a random chess piece and a random color. Different pieces have different effects:

Pawn: A pawn piece gets enhanced offense, but lowered defense.

Knight: A knight piece is unique. It can teleport to any of the square in a Knight-like movement.

Bishop: A bishop piece gets enhanced speed, but lowered offense.

Rook: A rook piece gets enhanced defense, but lowered speed.

Anyone inside the board can move freely without being restricted to chess piece-like movement, retaining their original abilities. So the Knight piece has 2 options of mobility inside the square; teleporting or moving normally.

Also, the colors play an important role in here. You get assigned to a random color. If you are fighting an enemy with the same color, the overall damage will be reduced to both you and your opponents, and vice versa. And... that's about it. Battles are carried out normally. You cannot exit the board until we cancel it ourselves or both of us get hurt so bad that it could cause us to cancel it. External forces (energy blasts, whatever) from outside cannot hurt those who are in the board area - it would simply disappear and reappear at the other side of the board. Similarly, energy blasts from within the board will dissipate if it reaches the board edge.

As for us, we retain our normal abilities as everyone else. Our offense, defense and speed are boosted very slightly - not as much as the other pieces, but in return, we are not placed under any restrictions. We are confined in the board as well. Any opponent fighting us would have their enhanced features - as well as restricted features - doubled, except for the Knight piece. Meaning, if a Rook piece were to fight me/ILP, he/she would have really tough defense but horrible speed, etc.

[I like Pokemon (...)]

What would your Fullbring be?

Fullbring Name: King’s Reign

Item: A black King chess piece made of glass, attached to a piece of string that I keep around my left wrist.

Activation description:

I flip my hand and grasp the King with my hand. Once activated, the king transforms into a small dagger.

Ability Details:
King’s Reign means that whenever I get hit, it is like the attacker also got hit by the same attack: we both feel the pain, and we both get the wound.

Second ability:
Fullbring Name: -Mate

Activation description:
This is an ability that is only available when Arc and I are together. Standing back-to-back and holding our chess pieces in our hands, Arc says “Check” and I say “Mate”. A giant 8x8 chess board springs up beneath our feet. Anyone who is within the range would have to ‘play chess’.

Ability details:
Once inside, everyone (excluding Arc and I) are assigned a random chess piece and a random color. Different pieces have different effects:

Pawn: A pawn piece gets enhanced offense, but lowered defense.

Knight: A knight piece is unique. It can teleport to any of the square in a Knight-like movement.

Bishop: A bishop piece gets enhanced speed, but lowered offense.

Rook: A rook piece gets enhanced defense, but lowered speed.

Anyone inside the board can move freely without being restricted to chess piece-like movement, retaining their original abilities. So the Knight piece has 2 options of mobility inside the square; teleporting or moving normally.

Also, the colours play an important role in here. You get assigned to a random colour. If you are fighting an enemy with the same colour, the overall damage will be reduced to both you and your opponents, and vice versa. And... that's about it. Battles are carried out normally. You cannot exit the board until we cancel it ourselves or both of us get hurt so bad that it could cause us to cancel it. External forces (energy blasts, whatever) from outside cannot hurt those who are in the board area - it would simply disappear and reappear at the other side of the board. Similarly, energy blasts from within the board will dissipate if it reaches the board edge.

As for us, we retain our normal abilities as everyone else. Our offense, defense and speed are boosted very slightly - not as much as the other pieces, but in return, we are not placed under any restrictions. We are confined in the board as well. Any opponent fighting us would have their enhanced features - as well as restricted features - doubled, except for the Knight piece. Meaning, if a Rook piece were to fight me/Arc, he/she would have really tough defense but horrible speed, etc.

[Eon Master]

^ I'm so jealous of that ability. That's amazing.

In a fight against each of the Espada, how would you fare?

Yammy Rialgo

Counting him as the 0 Espada here. I'd win, no problem. As Arc said, his body is too big while his brain is too small by comparison; too predictable. His regenerative abilities are also inneffecient against someone once they're at his level or higher :/

Coyote Starrk: Mhm. Yeah, I'd have a lot of trouble with him, mainly because his attacks are really freaking hard to dodge. I'd probably manage in Bankai, thanks to my superspeed and Jyuusei Shuusoku, but it wouldn't be an easy fight by any means. Although, I'd probably ask if he wants to just skip the fight and go for drinks with me and Shunsui xD

Barragan Luisubarn: BS HAX. Yeah, I'm useless against him :/

Tia Halibel: See Starrk. It'd be slightly easier because she's not as fast or durable, but still not easy.

Ulquiorra Schiffer: It'd be interesting to pit his fighting style against mine, but ultimately his Segunda Etapa is roughly equal in power and speed to my Bankai, meaning I probably lose in the end. I might pull out a victory by using Garou Hantoriku, but his regeneration makes that very unlikely.

Nnoitra Jiruga: Easy win for me. Nnoitra is arrogant and slow, not to mention that he has no defensive skill besides his Hierro. He relies on it way too much, making him a giant target for my attacks. His release's many arms might be an issue, but my Bankai could easily handle it.

Grimmjow Jagerjacques: He's a kitty, I'm a wolf. Not exactly much of a fight there. Although, I could always take the easy way out and use catnip xD

Zommari Leroux: Soifon could create more quasi-clones than him, and I'm faster than Soifon. His release might be a problem for me, but I could deal with it easily enough.

Szayelaporro Grantz: He's dangerous. If he seals my Bankai, I'd be fine with just Shikai. However, if he releases with the seal on my powers still in place, I'd be in trouble. His arrogance, however, would probably be his downfall.

Aaroniero *insert name here*: Yeah, I'm too lazy to spell this now. Especially since this fight would be a joke.

[minchan]

ILP - that's an awesome fullbring. XD I should make one when I actually have a chance. XD

when did I say Eon was dead. I said Seijuro Arashi was dead. Think about it...

I like this description a lot.
i made it just for you

damn it. I knew I forgot to edit something.

A very interesting concept, and I was not too far off with the "another species discovered". And the 49.7492681 was to make it sound more sciencey, correct?

i'm honored that you're honored to get the everloving shit kicked out of you. Granted, you do last the longest of the three newbie. And on that note...

Luke, BMJ and Ice: in the coming chapters you will be hurt badly. This does not reflect my personal views of you. Ask Eon and Zam they got beat to hell last fic and we're still friends.

Somewhere along the lines, all the decades align

(Yep. Owl City.)


(Twelfth Squad labs, Unknown Time)

“It’s ALIVE!” She called out, almost alone in the dark chamber she had sealed herself in. Next to her was a green-haired woman dressed in green clothing, and in front of the two was a long table with a kid laying on it-A 5’4” teen.

“Good Job Lemon-Sama.” Lamia said, brushing her green hair from her face as they gazed upon the other.

“We did it Lamia, the perfect bioroid. Model I.L.P. My masterpiece. Awaken. Henceforth your name shall be Ryuu Schiffer. Codename I.L.P.”
_______
(Sereitei, Unknown time)

The blood red moon let off a dull glow, coating the city in its bloody essence while maintaining a certain darkness. But this night was no time for sleeping. This night. Was a time for death. The majority of Sereitei was destroyed and the rest of it was under quite likely to be next. The destruction clearly began in the center, and it was spiraling all throughout the Soul Society.

In the exact middle of the Sereitei, stood the Captain of the Special Tactical Assassination squad, Bahamut. Once known as Aleph. Once upon a time.

Several small trails of ruin spread from the center of the Sereitei, at the end of each one was a captain. A captain defeated. There were only four of these lines at the moment. But in the center. Lied the bodies of hundreds of shinigami. Almost all of them, infact.

“Why this change of heart…” asked Jordan angrily, his body beaten, his Zanpakutou returned into its sealed state. He couldn’t walk. He was kneeling with his sword as a weak sort of support system. A miniature Iroriryuu stood in front of Jordan, breathing out weak embers in an attempt to stop Aleph from coming any nearer.

“Good bye now.” Aleph smiled as he kicked Iroriryuu into Jordan-propelling him straight to the outer wall of the Sereitei. “And that makes Jordan, Jin, Dauc, and Kusari. Which captain shall go down next?”

The other captains stood silently in the ruins, they hadn’t interfered. It was a one on one at a time fight. An unspoken rule of sorts. Death itself lingered in the air as Cameron whispered. “I’m sorry. Kokuchouyaku Senshu.”

Instantly bullets of the most pitch black material one could ever see attacked the water-coated shinigami in one fell swoop. “Aleph…no matter how thick your armor is, I only have to pierce it!” His blade became pitch black, barely visible in the blood-drenched light, and grew large and long. Before the bullets even stopped striking, his rushed forward and stabbed into Aleph with all his might.

His blade broke as water quickly covered him. The water became blood red, but the cracks of the water pressure affecting his body could be heard even through the water. Even the most stoic captain cringed. The contents of the water were quickly ejected in another direction. No one dared look in that direction.

“…I see. The Kido Corps Captain, The Third Captain, and the captain Commander are missing. You’re all small fries to me.” He yawned and shunpo’d towards an apparently small metal building as all the remaining captains fled, tears streaming down their cheeks as they prepared to regroup. Yet another battle lost, with so many casualties. It appeared the end was near.
_________
(Twelfth Squad Laboratory #13, Unknown time)

Beep. Beep. Beep.

Twelfth Captain Ryuu Schiffer blinked awake from his groggy and half-awake state. He didn’t know what time it was. He knew he had fallen asleep sometime in his office. How exactly did he know? He was still in his office. He groaned bitterly as he looked around his office. The room was dark and only the dimmest of lights filtered through his window. His desk was messily full of papers, ideas, folders, drawings. On the side of the mess in a clear folder was a series of papers. He stopped moving and just stared at these papers for a moment.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

He pulled them out with clearly dead hands, slowly and carefully. The cover pages were made up of an essay, “The Weaponry Revolution,” by Narcisse Dauc. The next pages were some sketches by Dauc. The first sketch was of lightweight battle armor. It was equipped with motors that enhanced the movements of the wielder as well as a system of reiatsu conductors that allowed the user to manipulate pure reiatsu, Sistema R. The second sketch was a very thick and heavy armor, which relied on internal weapons, specifically small light refractors (LAZORZ,) as well as large shoulder-mounted, partially-solar powered, “Hi-Zol Cannons”. The last one was equipped with wings. Large metal wings. Complete with guns, bombs, shields, a laser reflection system, and remotely-controlled “Strike Shields.” This set-up was all controlled by Sistema URANUS, a highly mental and reiatsu-straining system. All of these were highly reiatsu and mentally straining on the user. At the top of each design was a stamp. A stamp that said disapproved.

The next several papers were different designs. The first was of lightweight battle armor that would man a hoverboard-type piece of equipment. The hoverboard was where all the weapons were. A medium-sized version of the Gravity Cannon equipped on the Sereitei’s first Interdimensional-Ship (To Earth we go! With cargo!) was mounted on the board. As well as several turrets. The next was a heavy armor with shoulder mounted “Heavy Claymores” and a massive “Revolving Bunker” attached to its arm. A weak prototype anti-gravity device had to be equipped for it to even move. Lastly, there was an incredibly lightweight armor equipped with powerful jets and only powerful rifle. All by Ryuu Schiffer.

“My last legacy…” He murmured quietly to himself. “Maybe they were denied as well as Dauc’s for a reason…”

Beep. Beep. Beep.

The two series of weapons/armor are virtual opposites of one another. Three require the utmost reiatsu control in order to work all the systems in conjunction with the battlefield. The other three rely entirely on the mechanical feedback system, where the machines are reacting to the movements of the person. The designs, in essence, were very similar, but their weaponry was completely opposite. From long range to close range, vice-versa, and from owning a battlefield to sniping out a single opponent.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

He finally woke up. He disregarded the remaining papers.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

A triple-A class alarm? No, even higher. He reached for the intercom button. “Status?”

“Anomalies in Sectors L4, H3, M2, and K9.” Came the reply, all areas outside of the Rukongai by several miles.

“What KIND of anomalies?” Ryuu asked, a hint of skepticism in his voice.

“There are gravitational, Spatial, and minor temporal distortions in those areas.” The voice said, urgent.

“…Send probes to examine. We don’t know what we’re dealing with.”

“Yes sir” The lone night-shift guard who was still awake replied.

It was Ryuu’s job to check up on this. But it was night time. And he was sleepy. Therefore. He slept.

One week later the night-shift guard would be declared missing. Three months after that Ryuu would realize those drones were never sent. It would be too late then.
_______
(One Month Later. Captain’s Meeting Hall)

“I’ve been discussing with Ryuu about the disappearances of shinigami. We have made a joint movement to use a revised version of Ex-captain Narcisse Dauc’s Experimental Weapons Project. Although previously, this has been denied, it is within our belief that the only way to track down the source of these disappearances is by sending out shinigami armed with and trained with technology rather than Zanpakutou.” Magnus said, the voice of a true leader making itself known.

“For this motion to pass (A/N: I felt parliamentary when I wrote this. Yet I know nothing about the Parliament. Go figure) someone must second the movement and the remaining Seven out of Nine must approve the idea. I will make the final decision when all is said and done.” Golde intoned neutrally.

With that said, the remaining nine captains went up to the table and began to examine the designs that were placed upon the table for them to see. Magnus was relaxed, calm, collected. Ryuu was shivering in a corner. Golde was eating a rather large (And out of season) Marshmallow rabbit
________
(Modern Day. Unknown Coordinates, Earth.)

Two figures stood slowly in the empty plains, grass waving in the rough breeze. The sky was clear and the bright sun gave promise to a happy world. The two figures weren’t so positive. In front of them were two stranger figures. One of them, a white tiger, the other a blue Chinese dragon. Out of the ordinary, at the very least. Clouds slowly began covering the sky, coming from an unknown source, as lightning streaked and thw winds picked up.

“Found you.” A kid, around fourteen at the oldest, yawned. In his hand was a Nintendo 3DS. He wore simple clothing, a T-shirt and cargoes.

The beasts backed up as the weather worsened. A girl, maybe seventeen, yawned. “Let’s get this over with.” She said, getting herself into a fighting position.

Lightning crashed upon the two as a tornado began spinning around them…
________
(Captain’s Meeting Hall. Continued.)

“…I see, A unanimous decision.” Golde muttered, there goes clinging onto the old ways. “Maybe they’re just bad with technogloy…” he said under his breath as the captains all anonymously voted.

Magnus just smirked as if he had known all alone with Ryuu got out of his corner and sighed in relief.

“I suppose I can do nothing other than approve your plea” (What terminology did I just switch to?) Golde sighed. He snapped his fingers as Golde’s Captain Commander Seal of Approval, a reiatsu-charged lightning bolt, suddenly appeared at the top of each paper. An amused tone suddenly entered Golde’s voice, “Whoever can lead a team of normal shinigami fighting and training for the same purpose as those in the EW project and surpass the resulting team will get a reward. Only one of you may be the leader.” Cameron promptly pushed every one else out of his way and forcibly volunteered to lead the team.

And so begins the EWX and OTX teams.
______
(Later that evening)

“Now, you all (Were forcibly) volunteered to join the OTX team. Saph, Cell, Erin. Let’s get to training, shall we?” Cameron cracked a whip.

Erin darted behind Saph, who jumped behind Cell, who rolled up into a little ball. Cameron sighed, “This is gonna be a looong day…”

---Meanwhile---

“Okay, before you get your hands on any weapons or armor, you need to get used to the weight and the weapons systems.” Magnus stated, looking at the lined up Kai, Gira, and Min.

“But sir, I’m strapped to the ground with tons of weight.” Gira sighed.

“Sir, this weight is nothing…in fact the booster currently has me upside-down…” Min said, struggling to control the physically responsive equipment, every movement she made was counterbalanced and surpassed. She was used to standing up. Somehow, she ended up upside down. She attempted to correct herself by using her temporary rifle as an oar. She ended up oaring Gira-not that he noticed under the weight.

“These weights are light. And I love this~” Kai smiled, waving the Chakram over his head like a rope in one hand and taking potshots at the wall with the other.

Magnus sat down and sighed. “I’ll be locking you in here for three hours to get used to the weights. Bye.” He promptly got up, walked out of the door, and locked said door with an audible Click.
---Never said they began smoothly.---

 

My Full Bring!

I'm only partially serious about this fullbring. The idea came to me for a certain character in my fanfiction...

I'm using ILP and Arc's format.

Fullbring Name: Blueprint
Fullbring Item: Reality.
Activation description: Reality itself flickers: Space and Time are slightly distorted for about a minute before activation before stopping entirely.

Fullbring Ability: The user stops time momentarily and in that time he sees the world as a 3-D blueprint type...thing. Because there are therefore no obstructions, his sight becomes momentarily absolute. He can "rewrite" the blueprint within his sight but he must follow the laws of physics (IE. Can't make an unstable/floating structure and drop it on someone when the time freeze is over with) and organisms with mildly significant reiatsu interfere with the blueprint-he can't form anything that goes inside of where they exist (IE. can't make a spike through their body.) The main purpose of Blueprint is to defend, to remain in a territory where the user knows all and everyone else is blind, and to relocate the user (Cannot move other people either.) While there are absolutely no offensive capabilities, it is a perfect retreat weapon. And while he can stay within Blueprint indefinitely, the longer it lasts the higher chance someone with a high enough reiatsu can, of course, shatter it.

[Lucario0708]

wait, who am i going to get the everloving shit kicked out of me?

who am i going to be fighting? oh God if it's ILP his zan can kill me in seconds, eon, he could be pretty fast and deal a ton of damage, but I don't see him killing me, but i do see a long fight, granted between us it could go either way, if i can manage to keep dodging so i can notice the slightest mistake, POP goes the revolver

also, those fullbrings make me want to make my own fullbring

oh and

In a battle between each of OUR captains and you, who would win?(If you are a captain you can skip yourself)

Me vs. Eon
Since we are both fast, i can see this going on for a long time, as i stated above, it may go either way, he could be too fast and hit me while and dodging/flying around, or i could manage to dodge long enough to find a weakness

Me vs. ILP
I die, he can stop me dead in my tracks by slowing me down, though i can try to hit him with my long range bullets, he can just slow down time and do a matrix dodge, not only that, but he can make my bankai armor so heavy i won't be able to fly OR walk

Me vs. NL
tough one, his zan could rip me to shreds if i'm not careful, but i'd prolly last longer than my fight with ILPy

Me vs. Rotrum
me dead, he's too fast

Me vs. Arc
I'd be to busy eating the cookies he makes to fight in all seriousness, he will bake me poison cookies, and i cannot resist eating cookies, so i die
in a real battle though, I still die, arc is extremely dangerous with his water zan, he could use his water to refract my light

i'll do the rest later, but now, may i have permission to make a fullbring (not sure i need permission, but asking anyway)

[kusari]

Haha sounds good. I guess my dude is gunn a die lol.

no death. just crippling wounds.

I have no idea what Rasca is, but Cielo is sky in like, three romance languages.

you have the Cielo part right. HINT: the arc takes place in a city.

wait, who am i going to get the everloving shit kicked out of me?

who am i going to be fighting? oh God if it's ILP his zan can kill me in seconds, eon, he could be pretty fast and deal a ton of damage, but I don't see him killing me, but i do see a long fight, granted between us it could go either way, if i can manage to keep dodging so i can notice the slightest mistake, POP goes the revolver

You're not fighting a captain. Just an Acacian. And comparing you to him is like comparing a toaster to a supercomputer.


Fullbring coming soon.

This was a great episode!
My favorite part was the reigai Omaeda. XD
He's just better than Omaeda in practically every way.
Might even turn Soifon straight.

I thought that the reigai Hisagi and Ikkaku would be more willing to use their zan's abilities.
Also kind of knew that Yumichika might not attack his reigai.
I wonder which Yumichika Luppi likes better.

The omake was hilarious too.

Aaroniero Arruruerie
Unless he's got a power to counter my shikai, he's pretty screwed.

Szayel Aporro Grantz
I can probably take him out easily if he isn't able to analyze my powers before hand.

Zommari Leroux
Might be similar to the fight between him and Byakuya.

Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez
This would be one of the more fun fights. Might have a bit of trouble when he uses his resurrección.

Nnoitra Gilga
I might have trouble cutting him, but I have mid to long-distance fighting advantage. Close-range fighting would not be desirable.

Ulquiorra Cifer
Kind of like a mix of Grimmjow and Nnoitra. I'd probably be screwed if he went Segunda Etapa.

Tia Hallibel
Idk. Maybe win, probably closer to chance of a draw. Small chance I'd lose.

Baraggan Luisenbarn
Oh jeez, I could only win if I turn his powers against him. My bankai might have chance of not being affected as much.

Coyote Starrk
Probably a fight of who can overwhelm the other first. Wouldn't be a quick win at all.

Yammy Llargo
I'm pretty sure I could beat him pre-release.
Post release would be pretty difficult.
His shear mass might help him against my shikai.
Probably would have to use my bankai.
 

The death of ANY captain would probably rip a hole in our Jive...

High five for your cool choice of words there.

[arceus03]

Golde vanished? YES!!! HAHA!!! I WAS RIGHT!!
I TOLD HIM/HER (i alway forget O.O ) THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE GREAT GRADES IN UNI AND BE ACTIVE AND SHE/HE DID NOT BELIEVE ME!!! HAAAAAAAAAAA

Him. lol. And do I need to tell you my pointer for last semester? But that would make me sound like a jerky nerd

Kida flashed out of her seat, but I doubt it was her who killed the director, but she could have gone after the actual killer himself.

Ahh. I didn't see it in that sense. XD My first thought was that the director is some kind of impostor and Kida had noticed he was doing something to Ice.

Coyote Starrk: Although, I'd probably ask if he wants to just skip the fight and go for drinks with me and Shunsui xD

Tia Halibel: See Starrk.

Grimmjow Jagerjacques: Although, I could always take the easy way out and use catnip xD

You ask Harribell out for sake? XP *runs away*

lol catnip. I saw a video on Youtube. The cats were like, high. XD So freaking cute

ILP and Arc: you two have way too much time on your hands.

It just so happened we were online at the same time on WLM. And yeah, I'm a bit free this semester. 2 months with only 4 days of 2 hours class per week, one subject.

Golde
I'm dead meat. >.> His electric zanpakto would force me to rely on Kido alone, and I'm pretty sure he could negate those with electricity, too. So back to my previous strategy which is RUN LIKE HELL

Cell
Ah. Cell is a bit more interesting. His zanpakto relies on Kido mostly, which is akin to mine. He could abuse Electric-based Kido to exploit my weakness, but I could counter those with Kido as well. In the end, it'll be more towards a battle of strategy, intellect and stamina. I would say victory could go to either of us.

Kida
She'd be a tough opponent because of her versatility. Thankfully, her new zanpakto no longer can control Electric, so I'm a bit safer compared to her previous version. So yeah, high chance for either of us to win, or at least force a draw.

Flash Step
I believe I do not need to explain.

MC
See above All in all, MC's zanpakto is a stronger version of Flash. I might have some problems fighting him due to some of his bankai abilities, but I think I would mostly win.

Eon
*shudder* Back to normal strategy: RUN LIKE HELL. His shikai is enough to wipe me out. Bankai, however, could be quite different, since being touched alone causes a huge pain to him. In that case, I would concentrate all body of water around me in a huuuuuuge bubble, which means that he would have to charge through if he wants to fight me, which would be... hell.

Zameric
Zam is a bit interesting. In shikai, he certainly had me beat since I wouldn't be fast enough to escape his blades. In bankai, though, even though I'd be paralyzed, I could still control my water so it's a different story altogether. If I were to fight him, I'd force him to go bankai (taunting? XD) or I myself go bankai and block his blades. Lots more water makes it easier.

rotrum
Ice vs water <3 I believe my fight with him would be the same as it would go with Hitsugaya, maybe a bit more challenging. The result would depend on how favorable the situation is to us, so there's another 50-50 chance of winning.

Blue
Another interesting fight, since our zanpakto have no advantage with each other. If it comes to strategy, I'll have her beat, but she'd be like Kenpachi and still charge nevertheless. I could cut her tendons but she'd connect back the bone to the muscle using... shadows. (Yeah, we had a fight, and that's what she did, basically >.> ) So yep, victory could go to either of us.

ILPy
...I can't fight myself. ANYWAY. If I do, I'll make sure to hold the blade before he releases. XD If not, crap. I'll just stay at a range and fire off Kido or mentally send Tsukibana to fight her. I don't want to end feeling like a beached whale >.> In terms of strategy, I beat him at chess we'd probably guess each other's moves so perfectly we could say afterwards, "I felt like Aizen back then". Then... another 50-50.

kusari
Again, his zanpakto has no advantage over mine, and I over his. The Volt Tackle ThunderPunch could be quite a problem, but not troublesome enough to prevent me from using shikai. The electric version of Air Cutter (in bankai) could hurt, but I'd have a LOT of water around for me to worry too much about that. Plus Kido, again, for the umpteenth time, victory could go to either of us.

 

Oh, I believe the front page links Senny's zanpakto to Zam's.

[I like Pokemon (...)]

^ I'm so jealous of that ability. That's amazing.

ILP - that's an awesome fullbring. XD I should make one when I actually have a chance. XD

Thanks guys, though it was mainly Arc's ideas.

In fic related news: the next chapter rings in the start of an arc within an arc. this will affectionately be reffered to as "Los Rascacielos Mini Arc." Try and figure that one out.

The other captains stood silently in the ruins, they hadn’t interfered. It was a one on one at a time fight. An unspoken rule of sorts.

DIDN'T WE LEARN FROM THE FIGHT AGAINST AIZEN?!

His blade broke as water quickly covered him. The water became blood red, but the cracks of the water pressure affecting his body could be heard even through the water. Even the most stoic captain cringed. The contents of the water were quickly ejected in another direction. No one dared look in that direction.

That was damn bloody.

He pulled them out with clearly dead hands, slowly and carefully. The cover pages were made up of an essay, “The Weaponry Revolution,” by Narcisse Dauc. The next pages were some sketches by Dauc. The first sketch was of lightweight battle armor. It was equipped with motors that enhanced the movements of the wielder as well as a system of reiatsu conductors that allowed the user to manipulate pure reiatsu, Sistema R. The second sketch was a very thick and heavy armor, which relied on internal weapons, specifically small light refractors (LAZORZ,) as well as large shoulder-mounted, partially-solar powered, “Hi-Zol Cannons”. The last one was equipped with wings. Large metal wings. Complete with guns, bombs, shields, a laser reflection system, and remotely-controlled “Strike Shields.” This set-up was all controlled by Sistema URANUS, a highly mental and reiatsu-straining system. All of these were highly reiatsu and mentally straining on the user. At the top of each design was a stamp. A stamp that said disapproved.

The next several papers were different designs. The first was of lightweight battle armor that would man a hoverboard-type piece of equipment. The hoverboard was where all the weapons were. A medium-sized version of the Gravity Cannon equipped on the Sereitei’s first Interdimensional-Ship (To Earth we go! With cargo!) was mounted on the board. As well as several turrets. The next was a heavy armor with shoulder mounted “Heavy Claymores” and a massive “Revolving Bunker” attached to its arm. A weak prototype anti-gravity device had to be equipped for it to even move. Lastly, there was an incredibly lightweight armor equipped with powerful jets and only powerful rifle. All by Ryuu Schiffer.

“My last legacy…” He murmured quietly to himself. “Maybe they were denied as well as Dauc’s for a reason…”

They sound quite cool.

“There are gravitational, Spatial, and minor temporal distortions in those areas.” The voice said, urgent.

Hmm...

“Found you.” A kid, around fourteen at the oldest, yawned. In his hand was a Nintendo 3DS. He wore simple clothing, a T-shirt and cargoes.

The beasts backed up as the weather worsened. A girl, maybe seventeen, yawned. “Let’s get this over with.” She said, getting herself into a fighting position.

Lightning crashed upon the two as a tornado began spinning around them…

This should be interesting... Very interesting indeed.

“Now, you all (Were forcibly) volunteered to join the OTX team. Saph, Cell, Erin. Let’s get to training, shall we?” Cameron cracked a whip.

Erin darted behind Saph, who jumped behind Cell, who rolled up into a little ball. Cameron sighed, “This is gonna be a looong day…”

I lol'd.

 

My Full Bring!

I'm only partially serious about this fullbring. The idea came to me for a certain character in my fanfiction...

I'm using ILP and Arc's format.

Fullbring Name: Blueprint
Fullbring Item: Reality.
Activation description: Reality itself flickers: Space and Time are slightly distorted for about a minute before activation before stopping entirely.

Fullbring Ability: The user stops time momentarily and in that time he sees the world as a 3-D blueprint type...thing. Because there are therefore no obstructions, his sight becomes momentarily absolute. He can "rewrite" the blueprint within his sight but he must follow the laws of physics (IE. Can't make an unstable/floating structure and drop it on someone when the time freeze is over with) and organisms with mildly significant reiatsu interfere with the blueprint-he can't form anything that goes inside of where they exist (IE. can't make a spike through their body.) The main purpose of Blueprint is to defend, to remain in a territory where the user knows all and everyone else is blind, and to relocate the user (Cannot move other people either.) While there are absolutely no offensive capabilities, it is a perfect retreat weapon. And while he can stay within Blueprint indefinitely, the longer it lasts the higher chance someone with a high enough reiatsu can, of course, shatter it.

Why do I feel like I've slightly inspired you in some ways? I really like this Fullbring, it looks really cool.

who am i going to be fighting? oh God if it's ILP his zan can kill me in seconds,

>D

And comparing you to him is like comparing a toaster to a supercomputer.

I'm not THAT good...

@ Ant & Arc's Fullbring
Awesome Furbling combo you guys! 8D

I thought that Furbling only existed in the other Club?

ILPy
...I can't fight myself. ANYWAY. If I do, I'll make sure to hold the blade before he releases. XD If not, crap. I'll just stay at a range and fire off Kido or mentally send Tsukibana to fight her. I don't want to end feeling like a beached whale >.> In terms of strategy, I beat him at chess we'd probably guess each other's moves so perfectly we could say afterwards, "I felt like Aizen back then". Then... another 50-50.

Oh, I believe the front page links Senny's zanpakto to Zam's.

Don't forget, I've beaten you in Chess too
And yeah, that was a mistake. It was fixed in my post quite a while ago, but Golde hasn't been on since I fixed it. I've PMed him, so he should get around to it eventually.

[Northern Lights]

Me vs. NL
tough one, his zan could rip me to shreds if i'm not careful, but i'd prolly last longer than my fight with ILP

... *breathes* I . AM . A . FEMALE ... *snarl*
Why do you think my Zanpaktou using the all the powers of Mother Nature. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

Rotrum: I think I've missed chapter 3 ... why are 2nd, 3rd and Commander suddenly "missing"? But then Golde pops up later in the chapter? >.<

Ilp and Arceus03: Aww, wow, you have a paired fullbring, which is pretty cool, kinda reminded me of the giant wizards chess board in the Philosphers Stone XD

[Eon Master]

Topic:

Golde

Urrrrgh. Hard fight right off the bat. In fact, I don't think there's any way I can win. Sure, I'm faster, and I'm probably roughly equal in power, but I have no stamina, and no Kido to balance that. In other words, I'm dead before too long.

Cell

Hm. Cell's intelligent enough to figure out how to exploit my weakness and play to his strengths, but the same holds true for me. I think it'd end up being a contest of skill and power, with the more powerful one (me) winning out. It wouldn't be an easy fight by any means, though.

Kida

As Arc would say "RUN LIKE HELL" Mhm. Idk how I'd fare here. Kida's attacks are very powerful and her combinations are dangerous, but they take time to set up. Time isn't exactly a luxury you can afford against someone with my speed level. Still, she understands that I'd do just that and probably have some sort of counter waiting, so I'd have to play by ear until I figured out how to win. Could go either way.

Arc

Mhm. Arc's powers aren't exactly useful against me. His protective water bubble thing also fails against my Bankai. (And please, don't say "IT'S NOT A BUBBLE!" because the physics in play won't be stopped by completely encasing yourself in water either. Less damage, perhaps, but not much else.)

Arc: *Water Bubble*

Me: *flying leap into an eight-sided Jyuusei Shuusoku, blasting right through the bubble*

Arc: X.x

Or I could just come straight down while using the same move. Squish.

Mhm. Idk why people think that my Bankai can't do stuff like that just because it's primarily close range. Circ said the same thing at school when I showed the draft to him. It's not easy, but it's possible. And I can still use Tsuzuri Raiden. I suck at Kido, but Hado #11 isn't exactly difficult to pull off.

Flash_Step

Hrm. Tough one. Flash is offensively weaker than me in every area but Kido and long-range, but his stamina would quickly become an issue. I'm sure I could work around it, but I'd still have a very difficult fight on my hands.

MC15

Urgh. Another really difficult fight. Just like Flash, except MC has more power and better defenses, at the cost of slightly less stamina. That theoretically makes it easier, but MC's fire is more easily manipulated and he'd probably try Arc's bubble trick with flames. It wouldn't work, but an eight-sided Jyuusei Shuusoku isn't exactly easy to pull off and I'd lose a lot of energy. And my limited Kido doesn't do much to help against MC, other than aiding dodges of his attacks. We're pretty equal, all things considered.

Senny

Senny doesn't exactly do well against powerhouses, if my RPG fight against him was anything to go by. Unfortunately, I don't have elemental abilities anymore, but I can still charge my weapons with extra spirit energy to increase the damage output and stuff. In a war of attrition, we'd probably just end up tying :/

Zameric

I'm safe so long as I keep moving constantly. Zam can't use his bigger attacks if I'm close enough to him, since they'd take a little while to summon up and I'd exploit the timing. My abilities are better against multi-angled attacks anyway. Plus, if I use Bankai, I could pick out the portals of his swords and react to where I would need to in order to escape his surrounding or mass-area attacks. His Bankai would be my death if he caught me in it, though :/

Rotrum

Being one of the few people who is almost as fast as I am, this would be a difficult fight. Ultimately, I think he'd win because he's slowing me down the whole time. That and his attacks are really hard to avoid, and difficult to block properly as well. I might force a draw if I went all-out from the start, falling back on Garou Hantoriku when things got rough, but idk how much punishment I'd be able to take that way. So, either I have to win really fast, or I lose. Pretty similar to what'd happen if I fought Byakuya, actually.

Blue

...mhm. She definitely would be the hardest fight by far, even more difficult than Golde. Her Zanpaktou is basically the perfect foil for mine (not counter, but it finds a way around my attacks), and she can take assloads of punishment and just laugh it off. The only thing that might save me is that I could pick out her attack pattern after a while and react to it, or use Bankai and keep on the move so she can't get a lock for a decent attack. I don't think I'd win, but it's possible. Still, much more strategy-based than losing to Golde.

ILP

Forget 30 Xanatos pile-up, try 90 or more. We'd just be mindfucking the audience the entire time.

...in all seriousness, I'd probably lose unless I could grab his Zan before he releases. Time/Space is not exactly easy to fight against. However, what I could do is force a game-changer (my specialty). Let him hit me, then break off his blade while it's in my body. I'd take a hard hit, but his Zanpaktou's powers would fade (no Zanpaktou can retain its Shikai or Bankai while broken), making the fight roughly equal. Then I might win, if I can finish it before I pass out from blood loss / pain. The only reason why I haven't tried that on other people is because I'd get beaten before I had a chance to make it work.

kusari

Yikes. His Zanpaktou is a really good match for mine, but I'm much faster than he is, so I might pull out a win. Idk. His planning abilities and mine are roughly equal, but all he needs to do is score a few small hits to equal several powerful blows on my part. It's tough to figure. Maybe we'd just settle for going for drinks after we got tired of beating on each other xD


First chapter either tonight or tomorrow, depending on how tired I am when I get home from practice.

[kusari]

kusari
Again, his zanpakto has no advantage over mine, and I over his. The Volt Tackle ThunderPunch could be quite a problem, but not troublesome enough to prevent me from using shikai. The electric version of Air Cutter (in bankai) could hurt, but I'd have a LOT of water around for me to worry too much about that. Plus Kido, again, for the umpteenth time, victory could go to either of us.
[/spoil]

I picture that as pretty awesome looking.

I'm not THAT good...

I was actually comparing Luke to his opponent. Comparing you and him would be toaster to the average computer.

kusari

Yikes. His Zanpaktou is a really good match for mine, but I'm much faster than he is, so I might pull out a win. Idk.

I'd be honored to drink with you sir.

Not much else to say.

Fullbring coming sooner.
