It's not so much what he does as it is the way he does it.

I don't think he cleaned up his act so much as... His dastardly evil actions are occuring off screen where no one can see. It sort of annoys me that he gets away with it.

Somewhere he is taking people's eyeballs out for fun and killing pandas to see how the world would react with them gone.

Kidding! He is likely poisoning women and immolating the people under his charge some more.

He makes everyone else look angelic by comparison

No one, I think the point of his character is supposed to be that he basically gets away with everything. Afterall he got OUT of jail to become a captain.

Mass murder, Genocide, and Child Abuse is apperantly small time stuff. Though I guess that also brings the problems that THE SOUL SOCIETY SUCKS! into play.

I REALLY hope we are talking about the same character.

Since I'd assume "Mass murderer who gets away with everything" could describe a lot of characters.

Mayuri is definitely a Karma Houdini, but i get the impression that alot of the really horrible stuff he boasts about these days he isn't actually doing anymore.

I mean, we havn't seen him turn anyone into living bombs lately; Mayuri seems to have graduated from 'psychopathic murderer' to 'crazy nazi'.


What Mayuri does show is that the Bleach universe isn't black and white, which is nice; Soul Society really isn't a very nice place, but it's better than the alternitive.

He sort of goes all the way through psychotic and comes out the other side.

The Soul Society is supposed to be a throwback to earlier times where the obvious flaws and barbarianism present in the system are supposed to be obvious and nostalgic.

The Soul Society is supposed to suck!

Though I didn't need Mayuri to show me the Black and Grey of the Soul Society. Afterall
1) It is a system based upon power rather then competency, intelligence, or otherwise.
2) It is a Feudal system when I think about it. Basically the Soul Society says "We will protect you, but you work for us now and live in poverty"
3) Everyone is either a Thug, Negatively Honorable, or Homicidal.
4) Their laws do not protect people of lower classes from higher classes...

Honestly where is the WHITE in the Soul Society? Their "Healer Crew" is genuinly unliked.

Still better than the alternative.

Well the Alternative to the Soul Society is Barbarism

Still I don't have to like it.

I don't have to like the fact that basically a Soul Reaper can walk into my house and kill my family for fun and I have no legal discourse.

I don't have to like the fact that the Captains basically can do whatever the heck they want.

The alternative is everyone gets eaten by Hollows.


And what the hell makes you think you're special enough to warrent a Shinigami's attention? They're all too busy being uppity to give a shit about the real world except to stab any Hollows that turn up.



Might makes right, and i'm here to tell you that that little truth is pulled right out of reality.

I don't know, plenty of them have demonstrated a wanton disregard for basically anyone. I wouldn't be surprised if Malyuri tests his experiements on the general populous first.

That and the Soul Society is pretty repressive against the people in general anyhow.
