  • It's taken me a while, but it's time to talk about Can't Fear Your Own World volume 1! This light novel acts as a direct sequel to the Bleach manga, helping to both fill in the gaps at the end of TYBW, but also to tell a brand new story about Shuhei Hisagi, the noble houses, and the truth of the darkness at the heart of Soul Society! Let's discuss!

      @jadenwilliams4807 3 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      I found it on a trip to Michigan and the whole way back home I read it completely enthralled. By the end I had shed my expectations of just reading it for the lore and bits that patch up the ending, to genuinely appreciating the story it was telling. It's effective as a mystery and as a vessel for lore and story patches. I cannot wait for volume 2!

      I actually very much dislike the expansion on Shuheis Zanpakuto. It makes me wish the book wasn't canon because of how generally useless is, like not everyone can have super cool broken powers but the fact that Shinji and Shuheis bankais are soooo situational its annoying.

      they should do one of the beginning of the soul society. In that arc they can show the first battle of the quincy against the shinigamis and their loss, they can explain more the lore of the SS, unohana bankai, and can go on on. The second novel can be kisuke, there can explain all the problems that appear throught the years and why urohara do the things he do, and more with yoruichi being the second protagonist (there a novel already of them, i dont know the content obviously, but tite only need is to draw it, because the creator of this novel said he will not do it, only kubo).

      It's probably for the best. Sure Grimmjow's is violent and enjoy fighting like Nnoitora but unlike Nnoitora he is very prideful and would never uses cheap tactics like Nnoitora did. And even if Hueco Mundo is finally at peace Nel and Harribel still can't afford to let their guard down ever again to ensure that another invasion never happened again. And with Grimmjow's always challenging them both for the top spot even stronger each time they will get stronger themselves and able to prepare if anyone tries to attack Hueco Mundo again.

    Looking back this gives chilling context to the time Shunsui went to the real world and gave Ichigo's human friends those tickets to visit him, the implication being that his stay in Soul Society would be permanent. Given what we know and what was planned for him, I'll admit that I'm not feeling too bad about Gotei 13 getting utterly sunk and put near collapse in the war. Their inane tactics and twisted code of 'honor' sure helped.

      And this man is immortal who shrugged off getting torn through by Yhawch and absorbed.

    Great review of volume 1. Things really pick up in 2 and 3. And you're right about Tokinada not being a very complex character, but he's still a very compelling and enjoyable villain imo and he's become one of my more favorite characters. He's sort of a parallel to Aizen in that they both find out the truth that "God is Dead". But while Aizen is an Existentialist who tries to replace God and impose his own meaning on the world, Tokinada is a nihilist who embraces the meaninglessness of the world and just uses it as an excuse to indulge in sadistic pleasure and cause unnecessary evil. He really is like the Joker of Bleach.

    I'd say Tokinada and his nihilistic sociopathy is a product of Soul Society's itself. He knows what was done to the so called Spirit King and the avarice involved, he knows what Shinigami from top to bottom are willing to do to maintain the balance be it assassination/genocide or turning their naive top hero into a puppet. He even alluded to the deliberate sacrifice of Soifon's brothers in that meeting about restoring the houses in a 'they'll eat each other' moment worthy of the Joker. Aizen is right Gotei 13 will probably fall thanks to it's own corruption, inflexible brutality and lies. Notice all the threats to them comes from their own shadows or from past atrocities. Sure they've reformed being humbled in the war but it may be too late.

    • @hadiyazid

      I think after the Quincy invasion, Kyoraku tries to change the system of the Gotei 13 by making the administration system more transparent and accessible while still preserving the one million years old decorum. Four of the current Captains had been living in the Human World for a century and one of them spend more time with humans. So I would like to think the mind set has become more relax because of Ichigo.

    CFYOW does raise an interesting point. The zanpakuto that Tokinada uses isn't his original one but the family sword, in the same way as the Ise sword. And as Tousen proved with Kayko, a person doesn't have to be the original owner of a zanpakuto to wield it. So question. Do other noble houses have family zanpakuto? Especially the five noble houses who have been around since the beginning.

      I been theorizing about this since Nano revealed jer zanpakutou.
      So, a zanpakutou is a literal piece of the user, a part of their soul. So if the zanpakutou still has that soul fragment when the user dies it may still carry the will of the user so that's why Tosen could use Suzumushi because he had a deep bond with his death friend, I'm guessing the same logic applies to zanpakutous like Nanao's that passed through generations.
      This raises some questions like for example, Byakkuya was dead (damn fangirls that brought him back) after As Nodt had stole Sennobon sakura so if he had remained dead, could had Rukia use senbon Sakura after killing As Nodt? Like he left that piece of his soul to remain with her and saw her worthy. Imagine Rukia wilding 2 bankais at the same time. UNSTOPPABLE.

    I think you might have misinterpreted something regarding the Royal Guard. I read this beginning portion of the book as, during TYBW Arc, Ichibe was the only member to not die and subsequently resurrected the other members that were killed. If all Squad Zero were to die, they could never come back. At least one member needs to survive in order to revive the rest.

      Ichibei's resurrection was by a different means than the rest of the royal guard. Due to his connections with names, Ichibei can be resurrected as long as someone says his name, which Ichigo does for him during the TYBWA. Then in CFYOW Ichibei explains that, thanks to their oken bones, any member of the royal guard can revive the others, as long as the soul kings palace exists, so yes, at least one of them needs to survive to revive the rest, but Ichibei acts as a sort of safeguard to revive the others by having an alternate means of reviving

    I wish the Soul Society had been more of a focus in the story because it could've been really interesting. The Soul Society is fucked up. It's a military dictatorship which has committed countless atrocities (and continues to commit them, see Mayuri) and the vast majority of the souls which end up there live like medieval peasants. and the shinigami obviously don't just kill hollows, they must also be the police and the army keeping the population of Soul Society subjugated with violence. We only see this aspect in the Soul Society arc, after that the shinigami become basically 'the good guys'. but Urahara or Ichibei are only the good guys in contrast to characters like Aizen, who, while justifiably rejecting the corrupt status quo, is characterized to be a complete psycho, so there can be no doubt in the audience's mind that the shinigami are correct in stopping him from destroying the world as they know it. but really those top shinigami are simply protecting a deeply corrupt and unjust system in which they can be at the top of the food chain. imagine what a fucking story we would've got if Aizen hadn't been just a power-hungry psycho, but a complex villain who would revolt against the establishment because of its obvious corruption. shame it didn't happen and we got this weird 'the shinigami are basically the good guys, but some of them are Morally Ambiguous™, but don't worry, only their means are morally ambiguous, their goals are totally virtuous and fine"

    I love your channel. But one thing that you might've mentioned in volume 2 and 3 videos (I am yet to watch) is that Tokinada DID have a reason. He wasn't just evil for the purpose of being evil! Same as Aizen and Yhwach. The whole thing revolves around that "thing" as Aizen called it. All of their hatred is connected to them not understanding or maybe fully understanding what the Soul King actually is. There's a bit in the novels where Tokinada asks his dad about the Soul King and when he asks him about what was before the Soul King, his father unexplainably gets furios with him.
    The thing about Bleach is that it has an unreal amount of potentiak but we are still yet to see some major things which is frustrating. Aizen's backstory, Soul King origins (more in depth), the fifth Noble House, Hell and the whole thing with primordial world, chaos, balance. Relationship of Hell and the 3 other realms...

I mean if the second is an option, I don't think it would be all that bad. Sure, it would get lonely some times but if he's in command and control, he could always have and make new friends in his immortal life.
