Manga Read: Bleach Volume 42

Bleach volume 42 covers chapters 359 to 367 and I have only just finished reading them. The chapters are pretty short so it's quite fast to browse them through.

Despite the shortness, Kubo Tite had drawn many interesting plot twists into this volume. For a start we get to see Wonderweiss again and he's brought along a strange-looking friend. See the pictures below and you'll get the idea.



Arrancar Wonderweiss Margera









What is this strange thing?!


See the strange thing above? It looks so huge. Will the shinigamis be able to overcome it? Fret not. The vizards have arrived right on time to help the shinigami captains in their fight against Aizen.



The Vizards finally arrived. 

However this signals Wonderweiss to say some odd words that made the strange thing do this. See picture below:



Gillians released by the strange being


Lots of gillians were released by the strange being and this gave the vizards a chance to showcase their prowess. Hiroko Shinji almost hit Aizen but was deflected by Tousen at the last minute. How will the story continue from here?

The vizards used to be the enemies of the shinigamis but now they decided to band together with them in the fight against Aizen. However Shinji clearly specified that they are on Ichigo's side, not the shinigamis'.

So far the focus has not fallen back on Ichigo so I do not know how he's faring inside Aizen's prison. The next few chapters will reveal more story twists that promised to be more entangled than a Aldo hairstyle. Hee...
