Why on earth is the old man STILL standing there?

When Aizen was inside his fire, why didn't he increase it's size a bit and burn them all?


EDIT: By old man I mean the old beard leader captain.


I was wondering what Yamamoto was doing all that time too... Last I remember he did something in this arc was when he killed Harribel's Fraccion and that was so last year.

And I can't believe Toshiro got himself provoked emotionally by Aizen when he mentioned Momo where moments ago he was talking about captains fighting because of duty not hatred.

The new OP and ED was OK but I miss the last ED it kinda grown on me.

The op is a spoiler only if you know what happen latter on.
I beleive that since this arc is now over in the manga they will finish it and once it is over we will have ton of slice of life filler which would kind of fit giving the current situation.

No it's far from over, Kubo said that there'll be two more arc, one of them being 2-3 years long and the other 6-7 month I think.

New OP was great. ED was okay but it was visually pleasing.

However, when a show does stuff like that when they show a bunch of scenes from the previous episodes in rapid succession, it's a big sign that the show could be ending. Especially in that ED.

The anime won't be ending. The manga just got to a part for the first time in years where an actual break would make sense. The manga's got 4 years at the most left, so the anime will probably get very close to the manga, go to filler for almost 2 years (yuck), and then finish up soon after the manga.

Love the OP! Although i miss the old one, but they're getting better :) Very spoilerific though!
The anime seems very close to the manga, but knowing bleach they expand 4 pages of talking in the manga into 10 minutes in the anime, so we still have a long way to go.
I'm looking forward to the next few episodes animated :)!

You guys think that the fight is going slow and that all the captains and Vizards did not go all out when attacking Aizen, but they've all seen his Shikai, so they don't know whats real, so its always good to keep pace.. even Soifon said that they're fighting for survival...

New OP I really don't like at all. I prefer the last one with the fast lyrics I felt more emotion from it. The ED is not bad at all, but really never really a fan of EDs. >.> As for the episode itself the recaps feel like we may get fillers. I used to remember them recapping to the 5-8 min in rapid succession and we got fillers.

I also don't get the whole if you read the manga so of course its spoilers. How can that be entirely true? I haven't read the manga at all, and the OP just brings up more questions to me. With being a typical shonen anime, you so know they are spoilers. >.>

Studio Pierrot =/= Kubo. Didn't Studio Pierrot said they really wanted this anime to end back in the Soul Society arc, but they saw the potential of the whole Aizen thing and if Aizen arc is truly over I can almost agree with everyone in thinking the anime could be ending. Though them recapping a lot is what Bleach has been doing since the 200s. :P (Their attempt of trying not to catch up to canon) I honestly don't think anyone is too far from seeing what will happen to the anime. Everyone's guess could be right. >.>

As for me - best Bleach opening. Great song, great art. And did you see THAT Yourichi's expression? You can almost feel her emotions. Thrilling piece of masterpiece.

I am also thinking that, anime at least, is closing to an end. Anime is just 30 chapters behind the manga, so if manga will still continue, anime will have to either take a long break, or produce even longer filler arcs (which I believe would be just too much for even most hardcore Bleach anime fans). We will see. :)

Either way I can't wait for the next episodes. This studio proved many times over that with just animation and soundtrack it can make Bleach chapters and story way better than it is in manga.

They wouldn't throw it, they will let it rest for a little and then milk it again as Bleach 2nd season.

But i don't think they will be that wise.

Or they can milk it into another big filler arc like they did once they reached the end of SS arc to leave time to the manga to step in the next arc.

New OP is an interesting take for Bleach, usually the OPs are more character-focused and spoiler-heavy.

Same old Bleach with its same old flashbacks. Even flashbacks of five minutes ago. *rolls eyes* Are they running out of material?

I feel as if I am the only one who thinks this is Bleach's best OP. I don't think we could have had any better OP for this season, and I love all the expressions on the characters faces and the emotional feel set in the OP. It will really go well in this position of the anime/manga now.

I think this is Bleach's greatest OP as well. Very artistic and while it had spoilers, they weren't super-obvious. Song kicked some serious ass (cause it was SiD and all)

Finally a song that beats Alones for me.

Like I said ending a cow that can still be milked is very stupid. They won't end it and i'm pretty much sure of it.

Finally a new op.ed but the previous change and echoes was way better. op song sucks plus the music video also sucks how they show traffic lights without any bleach characters. I havent read the manga and I see no hint for spoiler at all. They tried way too hard that the mv looks like a random video of Japan's city places. Even the muramasa or other filler op was way better.

And the ep sucked too. Its because they talk much and they even repeat what they already said 5 moarrrr efffing times. lol I couldnt help but wanted so bad to turn it off by so much fails in this ep when I expected Ichigo to finally become vaste lorde and kill them all.

It's to represent the battle people can't see. That's why the building is destroyed at the beginning, the crane is randomly cut in half and the clouds split apart with no one there.

The best opening so far, by far. I love SID, and it's a beautiful song. But just WOW at the animation. ALL openings have 'spoilers' in. They are only spoilers if you're really searching for them though. I was so happy to see a glimpse of BISHIGO.

I also gotta say, that those that think the opening sucks probably don't have any sense of anything remotely artistic and are perhaps slightly....thick? LOLOLOL j/k

I found the OP good. Much better than the last one. ED was ok. Animation stats have fallen.

OK episode. Now I'm depressed. The manga is STILL continuing? Like, what more is there after Aizen? Meaning Bleach will end? I don't want that. I can go through fillers.

This has been simmering for awhile in Hitsugaya. They could have changed the translation to "I'm going to violently rape you!" & it wouldn't change the meaning at all. Isn't it cute how everyone's coming together to protect Ichigo? We all know how horribly this is going to turn out.
