My controversial liked Bleach character is Nnoitra, not because I like his personality (he's a piece of shit) but the whole symbolism:
- praying mantis hating females
- his hollow hole being in his head meaning the original human who became the hollow probably blew his head with a shotgun - connected to his aspect of despair and him still chasing death even after.. well death
-the strongest skin espada actually being the thinnest skin one in reality
it's just super well done if you ask me, and no one ever really appreciates it.
Plus the cover for chapter 309 might be my favorite Bleach page ever.
This is a top 5 scene in Bleach for me.
To truly appreciate this scene you have to remember the context. Chad just unlocked this new mode, literally a page before Nnoitra appears and it looks absolutely insane the way it broke the entire building apart. Not even 2 pages later and this is what happens 😭
Imagine if Zoro unlocked Asura for the first time defeats Kaku, and then used it 2 pages later and it gets negged 😭
This scene is etched into my mind forever.
