I love that Ishida is so fucking clueless about his dad. XD It's a very traditional anime theme, no one ever loves money for the sake of loving money -- they love it so that initially you can think they're dicks, until later it's revealed that it's all for the good of his family, and he just chooses to express it as if money is more important than his family. Of course, Ryuuken is also a dick. Like father like son.

To be honest with you, I have very few memories of Chad's fight, except that I think his opponent was the one who got me interested in a plot point that lol is never going to fucking come up again. Hollow arm what?? But then, I only really remember Dordonii, of those early fights. He's the guy who gave us our insight into why the Arrancar follow Aizen, and his poem was fascinating, and I liked his dorky chocolate metaphor. The reason I call Szayel Aporro a god-moder isn't because he's whooping Ishida and Renji, but because he just won't fucking die. It's like, "Haha, I am invincible to all your best attacks because I've seen them before!" "Okaaay, well, we use one you haven't seen yet." "......well, well my room is sealed! You can never escape it! Also, I have thousands of minions to fight you! Also I can make clones of you!" "Okay, well, we'll fight them and bust open your room." "...WELL I CAN CRUSH YOUR ORGANS WHILE YAWNING." "Ow. wtf." And that's gone on for like. Forty chapters or something. The Orihime rescue has had this same problem: you were defeated by Ulquiorra? Well, now Grimmjow is here with a healer. You defeated Grimmjow? Well, now Nnoitra is here and he's going to fight you. Nel defeated Nnoitra? As if, we haven't even seen his release yet! For forty chapters. XD And I know it's shounen and we're nearing a dramatic climax, and I'm not one of those people screeching about how the HM arc is so much more inferior to the SS arc and KT has jumped the shark, but all this time and there's been... no plot movement at all. Everyone is still standing exactly where they were when Rukia had the one really cool fight of the arc (and the only really meaningful fight of the arc, and the only fight that took no more than 4-5 chapters, like EVERY fight in the SS arc -- one of my favorite fights in the series to date is Gin-Hitsugaya, and that thing lasted like, five minutes) and died (skjdfhskg come ON KT can Orihime get OVER THERE PLEASE). I'm impatient. :(

/TANGENTIAL COUNTER LONG RANT

I don't know. All I know is that my fandom dialogues are like,

Slashfen: kfjsjkfjhs Ichigo/Renji!!
Me: I guess. I kinda think they're just friends.
Slashfen: fkgskjlsk Gin/Hitsugaya!
Me: .......not really, no. Pretty sure Hitsugaya's sole interest in him was Hinamori's continued health and happiness.
Slashfen: sfkjjhsfs Ichigo/Hitsugaya!
Me: ...you're just reaching now, aren't you? They haven't had a single significant conversation.

That's what happens a lot. XD I will watch that AMV when I get home from work.

And yes! Byakuya-Rukia are weirdly well-suited. You'd think they really were biological siblings.

Yupyup, though I'm not as clued into the thematics of anime! Not money-wise, anyway. But, if we ever had to wonder why Ishida's such a bag of douche: oh, hello, Ryuuken! The way to show your son that you love him is to disapprove of and insult him in every possible way. Yup :D, GOOD GOING CHAMP.

I really liked Dordonii's fight *_* omg, the mass mass loads of insight we got into him, into Arrancar, even into Ichigo! And I do also like his poem. Dordonii is just so cool. I also enjoyed Cirucci's fight, if out of a biased Ishida-fan way. Also, because, you know -- her willingness to mutilate herself in order to attempt to win. But admittedly, I also don't remember much about Chad's fight, which I now declare as another example of the KT shaft! *cough* -- YEAH SZAYEL GODMODES LIKE THAT, TOO. It's pretty crazy. The Hueco MUndo art is getting pretty ridiculous like that. Hah, maybe a thematic way of reinforcing how potentially suicidally dumb this was? "Oh, let's charge into a place where at least ten far beyond captain level Hollows live. Also, how are we uh, getting out of here?" I'm also impatient. :/ RUKIA. RUKIIAAAAA.

I--I love your fandom dialogues. If I got involved in fandom discussions, mine would also go like that. True, re: Byakuya/Rukia. Gives the pairing that extra bit of dissstuuuurrbing.
