Mmm, I didn't even properly register the passing of Halloween, so the suffering was apparently all hogged by you and you alone! =P

Actually, while I couldn't care less about the story of Bleach (was there any in the first place?), I still did finish it because there were quite a few abilities / transformations that I just wanted to see. Unfortunately, only 1/3 Bankai I wanted to see the most have been revealed in the end, but there were still a fair few interesting ideas embodied by the various Shikai, Bankai, and Quincy Schrifts. However, beyond the expected revelations concerning the Great Warriors and few other characters (which can be revealed who knows when assuming it's revealed at all), there isn't basically anything that SIU hasn't altered at least once since its first foreshadowing / introduction; not to mention that vast majority of the actually interesting things (in my opinion) covered by the original setting blog posts has been scrapped in favour of what is turning out to be rather stale.

Well, this way you get to enjoy all the pleasures and upsides of Brexit, you could have missed all of this fun were you to live in Japan!

I pursue Aikido there days; mostly Aikikai, but I also explore Yoshinkan on occasion (in case you know what I'm talking about). My Japanese is only at an early-to-mid beginner level, so I can produce some rudimentary sentences, but that's about it; learning Kanji makes the process quite glacial. My plan is to use the little I do know to reach my destination and encounter people, and then properly learn whilst immersed in the environment. Korean isn't really on my radar, though I did learn (and long forgot) a few things for the purposes of ToG ambiguities and their interpretations (one can learn Hangeul in one sitting without getting a sore a$$--voice of experience!).

PS: Indeed, a round of applause to us--the expensive paper holders!
