I'm tired of this horseshit, so I'm gonna lay the smack-down in this topic Bio Major Style:

Skin color is incompletely dominant, which means that the children usually exhibit a shade that is a mixture of their parents. That said, keep in mind that you don't inherit the skin tone, you inherit the genes that code for the skin tone. If Michael himself has any mixed ancestry, it's possible he carries alleles for lighter skin & passed them onto his children.

On the point of blue eyes, the allele for that originated around 6-10 thousand years ago*. In Europe during the Bronze Ages, it's estimated that 60% of people had blue eyes, with similar figures today. In the early 20th century of the United States, about 22% had blue eyes. Why is this important? So, what with the couple hundred years since the introduction of the slave trade, it would not be shocking if this runs in the families of some black people, let alone any Europeans they might happen to mate with.

So unless you have a family tree for him that goes at least 3 generations back on both his mother's & his father's side, you aren't really in any position to make any sort of intelligent commentary on his heritable traits.

Anecdotal evidence, despite what the name would suggest, is not evidence. Even so, you raise a good point, in that hair can be managed. But by "good point," I mean in general, not for your argument. YOU are the one who first mentioned their hair, so it's a very BAD point for you. You are quite literally announcing to us that what you said earlier was bullshit.

Of course, you're entitled to your own opinion of whether the kids belong to anyone from Michael Jackson to Jesus of Nazarath. In fact, your conclusion may even be correct. But your logic, if it can so be called, is just atrocious. If you could "tell by looking," we wouldn't have paternity tests in the first place.

Information on the new arc is being revealed each week. The second week's information is already up.

You have made me very happy good sir.

Script showed me the first week's thing, when I was searching for Week 2, I found a better list on the same site.

Ah. Well, still good find man.

The ice palace thing is interesting to me...common sense says it would probably be under Hueco Mundo, but that's boring & obvious, so I'm guessing it'll be under Karakura Town or, more likely, the Soul Society.

I have to imagine Hueco Mundo, only way for Soul Society to care, as well as the Arrancars. If it was in Soul Society I doubt highly the arrancar could even get there, much less show enough interest, or have enough knowledge of the goings on, to care.

I will be very upset if this shit skips Uryu on Kubo's self stated "friend themed arcs" and goes to someone fucking stupid like... I don't know, Grimmjow, Renji? Don't care, I want to see Uryu be a badass again!

1. To the best of my recollection, he never said "friend themed arcs." The next arc could quite easly be Isshin or Yamamoto. In fact, I believe he said way back when that there was going to be an Isshin Arc after a "short arc."
2. The last arc was Chad's & he sure as Hell wasn't a badass in it.

If Ichigo & Aizen can get to the Soul Society, I am led to believe that opening a Senkaimon is a natural ability of the Zanpakuto. Ergo, it should be quite possible for the Arrancar to go to Soul Society.

As well, I should think the Soul Society would be very concerned if shit was going down within their borders. As for how the Arrancar would know or care, well, we couldn't see why they would know or care about the FullBringers until we found out that Ginjo was the first Substitute & that they were more-or-less using Ichigo to lure him out.

Considering he was going to name the arc "Snipe" well...

Also it could be in Soul Society. If you remember their super max prison system is named after the Buddist hells, Aizen got sent to Avici, the 8th of the burning hells. Who's to say they don't have the frozen hells too?

That actually makes sense, although I was figuring "palace of ice" was going to be a metaphor, & it would actually be made of crystal or something.

True

Arrancar zanpakuto, and Soul Reaper ones do not work in the same way, so while it MIGHT be able to open a Senkaimon, I doubt it, and how would they even know when they're too busy opening gargantas to get around?

That's kind of like saying Renji's Zanpakuto doesn't work the same way as Ichigo's.

Gargantas can get into the Soul Society anyway, making it a moot point.

No, I was saying there was a racial difference, not a person to person difference.

Also, that is the point I was making.

Way to shift the goal posts. The fact is, ALL Zanpakuto have different effects. Doesn't mean anything with regards to their basic effects.

Your point was that they wouldn't be able to get into the Soul Society, which either way, they can.

I'm not shifting goal posts. I said Species X zans are different from Species Y zans, then you brought it down to persons within the same species. Also, they operate differently, Soul Reaper zans have souls with individual personalities, whereas a Arrancar's zan is more or less the hollow parts of themselves locked away in a sword.

I brought up the gargantas in saying that they wouldn't use a senkaimon. That said, I don't think I ever said they couldn't get in, just that they wouldn't want to, and that the Soul Reapers prolly wouldn't be cool with them "invading" the Soul Society.

Also, they do not operate differently. It was established way back when Isshin killed Grand Fisher that they operated under the same principles.

Thanks a lot for that.

It looks like Ulquiorra's not coming back for sure. And now I'm interested in seeing Unohana fight.

I like the "editor's predictions." Guy must have missed the part in Unmasked where it said everyone besides 2-3 of the Espada were dead. Nel doesn't count.

And how he wrote it was "very unlikely" for Hali to come back when Kubo himself said she would.

Actually, Kubo said he wasn't sure why she would leave Hueco Mundo.

Man, the anime adaptation of the Lost Agent Arc likes to add filler that spoils the plot. On the plus side, it let Orihime & Chad be cool for a little bit.

In case you don't want to watch the whole episode.

Well, Chad got to be cool at least. I'm a bit concerned that Orihime got one slice then went all mind fucked.

That slice was cool, though!

Orihime has difficult abilities to work with. Unlike a sword, it would look a little ridiculous if Tsubaki stabbed, pulled back, & stabbed again repeatedly. For example.

Tsubaki isn't supposed to stab, he is supposed to fly around slicing, it I remember correctly, which is pretty cool.

He was only ever shown stabbing, but I suppose he COULD do that.
