Bleach Chapter 576

The continuation of the Gremmy vs Kenpachi chapter was for the most part disappointing. As Gremmy slowly adapted to psychopath mode becoming more and more violent the battle did become more exciting, however that was all the changed. Gremmy’s attacks are still completely ineffective on Kenpachi and Gremmy seems to have taken little notice of this fact. His fighting style is becoming more extreme though, as we saw at the end of the chapter where Gremmy decided to throw a meteorite at Kenpachi (cause he can I surpose?). Then for a period of time, they just seemed to get into mud slinging matches where they were saying that each other was far more boring that the other, its was strange but it was also very funny.

Kenpachi continued to relentlessly cut down Gremmy time after time, with Gremmy paying little attention as he ‘healed’ himself almost immediately after he had been cut. Gremmy seems to have realised that the initial shock of being cut delays his reaction time of which he can then heal himself. This delay could prove to be potentially fatal to him and starts to panic.

Kenpachi seems to stop for a moment and almost take pity on him asking him if he imagined himself ‘dying’. From here Gremmy decided to get serious again, he split himself in two, or made a clone of himself to make his most powerful attack.

He then procends to dream up a meteorite that is capable of destroying the Seireitei in its entirely. To this Kenpachi then follows up with a badass comment, but its still doesn’t make much sense. Even if he does cut it into little pieces, it will still completely destroy the Seireitei.

The problem I have with this fight, is that 1. We have no idea what the limit to Gremmy’s power is, why can’t he just dream up and entire army of himself and wipe everyone out? Why can’t he just image Kenpachi to be dead? 2. He is a terrible match for Kenpachi, Gremmy, is just throwing giant things at Kenapachi continuiouly, he is not physically strong, or powerful, he is just using different tricks one after another. Which have all proved to be ineffective.

I give this chapter a 6/10, it was entertaining, but we need more than this, there is not much content and it felt very slow. I’m sure that these battle’s will look absolutely amazing when they get animated so it wont matter then, but for now, we need more progression and more content to make sense of this fight.
