Some nicer(?) spoilers.
Yhwach changes the future so Ichigo never kills him (he actually says that Ichigo had killed him).
Uryu appears and fires the arrow. It weakens Yhwach and transfers his powers to Uryu. But Uryu collapses since he can't handle The Almighty. Yhwach pleads for him to return the power before it's too late, but Uryu refuses.
Kira appears and attacks Yhwach, but gets another hole opened in his stomach from an attack from Yhwach's bow.
Ichigo tries to kill him again with a Getsuga but it fails and the sword is completely destroyed leaving only the handle. Yhwach says he still has plenty of power left and brings out Yama's bankai. Says he's going to turn them all into ashes.
Grimmjow, Halibel and Neliel appear and all fire GRC at Yhwach. It fails because Yhwach is using Zn T West, the fire cloak. Mayuri saves them.
The surviving royal realm invasion forces arrive and hold Yhwach at bay while Aizen fuses the hougyoku to Ichigo's zangetsu to restore the blade and grant Ichigo protection from the flames.
Secret SignatureHoly shit. Kubo remembered Halibel
Forever liveblogging the AvengersFake as fuzz Kubo remembered Harriet my ass.
Mileena MadnessThat actually sounds pretty fun. Wonder what'll happen to Aizen, since they both say he gives up the Marble.
Really does sound like a second-to-last chapter, as well.

Where are you guys getting spoilers on Tuesday?
An all out melee would probably be our last chance for Love and Shinji Bankais, too.
Any thing that uis a last minite win... is pretty much gonna mean we're gonna get a non ending for Bleach... or worse we'll just get a Soprano style cut to—-
The issue after this coming week's - the one everyone's speculating will be the end - is actually a double-length issue because the week after that is the Obon Festival, where everything goes on break.
Obon happens to be the Festival of the Dead. Careful not to trip on that symbolism, now.
Not double length. Just double issue. For Jump that means having the same amount of content but not serving as the issue for both weeks.
The first set of spoilers sounds plausible but rushed. Second is super unlikely for how much it would need to cover and how bizarre that direction would be.
New spoilers confirm next week is the last chapter...

Mileena MadnessYour link is broken.
Yep, definitely going with a fake-out "new" series to finish the story off.
I doubt it.
Latest spoilers.
Aizen and Ichigo have eyesex a chitchat about how Ichigo's immunity to KS came in handy for this moment.
Bach goes "Muhaha,I've broken through your illusions and undone my death in the future!"
Uryuu's arrow negates his powers for a while.
Ichigo prepares a GT,attacks,but Bach blocks it with one arm,and completely destroys the sword.
Out comes the (original cleaver apparently) Shikai and cuts him in half anyway!
Secret SignatureIt's better to just wait until pics are out to posts rumored spoilers.
Every accusation by the GOP is ALWAYS a confession.Γ6 Good memoriesβ¦ I had almost forgotten how bizarrely awesome the anime's first OST was.
So they plan to see if this final attack sticks, deal with the outstanding plot threads, AND provide a satisfying conclusion in one chapter?
Oh this is gonna be a trainwreck.
A beautiful, beautiful, trainwreck
Say to the others who did not follow through You're still our brothers, and we will fight for youSeems the latest spoilers are confirmed. And it's ending next chapter.
This is majorly fucked up.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."Meh, it's too late for me to be mad.
I didn't read the spoilers, but I wouldn't be surprised if Kubo just didn't give a crap anymore and let the bad guy win.
There's still several things that make me suspect the hand of editorial here. The abrupt disposals of Gerard and Haschwalth (no Vollstandig for the latter, even!), the lack of resolution for stuff like why the Soul King's body parts have merged with people, the leftover substitute badge in the human world, etc., the still-unrevealed Bankais, and so forth.
Is there really any question that it's an axe? I doubt leaving the series basically unfinished was Kubo's wish.
Sounds fitting for a rush job. Hope they aren't true.
