I’ve been postponing this way too long, and the longer I wait, the more books keep piling up. In any case, it’s finally time to deal with the light novels I’ve read since I last posted some five months ago. I’ll try to keep it brief, partly because the reason I didn’t post about them in the first place was that I couldn’t work up enough excitement to write a full-length review. And partly because I’m lazy, obviously.
Despite bravely trudging through the following books, my to-read list has actually grown to an insurmountable 122 titles, reaffirming that I have some sort of sickness that compels me to buy books at a ridiculous rate.

Show Spoiler for Bleach Chapter 393 ▼
It took forever, but Yamamoto finally woke up and did something this chapter. It was certainly exciting to see the old man displaying his prowess and to see Aizen acknowledge that Yamamoto has more combat capability, but having seen the fire trap that Yamamoto was planning, I tend to agree with Aizen about the fact that he’s making his move too late since everyone else is incapacitated now. This is especially true given the fact that Aizen had Wonderweiss ready to counter Ryuujin Jakka (of course Aizen was ready for this). I assume that Wonderweiss defeated Kensei at some point, and while I have no doubt that Yamamoto can figure out a way to defeat Wonderweiss in a one-on-one battle, Aizen probably won’t give him that opportunity. The easy way to resolve this would be to have Ichigo fight Wonderweiss while Yamamoto fights Aizen, but that’s probably too straightforward to actually happen. Maybe Urahara will show up instead since he has past experience against Wonderweiss. Either way, I have a hard time imagining Yamamoto getting defeated at this point, just like I don’t think Aizen will be.
