What amazing development! Is Aizen finally beaten and what will Ichigo do now without power? What will they show in the remaining 57 episodes? A lot of questions and I'm quite interesting what's next!

So Aizen is dead? :( I hoped that their fight would be longer. But I'm glad they didn't drag it.

And Ichigo is a normal human? I'm so glad I don't have to watch this big filler arc, it's probably just slices of life.

YAY Orihime and Ishida finally appeared.

That was a truly epic episode!

What Aizen turned in to in the end was disgusting! how to go from hot to not to hot again to not again and to even worse lol.

I knew Ichigo was going to say it was indeed his spiritual pressure chewing up all the scenery lol.

So Ichigo had to give in to Tensa Zangetsu to receive his powers, interesting but I did sort of expect that in a way.

Ichigo was all like "I'll defeat you in 1 strike" or whatever and I was like "yeah so he can get going to do his Sex Pistols tribute act concert" LOL!

When he did the final Getsuga Tensho I didn't expect his form to change again too. He looked super awesome with the black hair and red eyes. My mom even said when Aizen said something, she said about Ichigo "he's hotter than the other one now" lol. Ichigo did look super hot like that <3 (I just started using Firefox again and found a theme for it of that form on the first page under Bleach themes lol, awesome! there was also a cool Gin one and tons of them).

That attack Ichigo used the Mugetsu on Aizen was so epic! but it looked like it completely destroyed him but then he reappeared! D:

I can't believe Ichigo turned back to normal straight after that and lost all his soul reaper powers! D: now what's he gonna do the rest of the series? (is that what happened to his dad too? and that's why he knows about it?)

The Hogyoku not recognising Aizen was it's master after his Zanpakuto disintegrated and lost his powers was something I didn't expect but was a great touch.

Wow, I can't believe Urahara snuck in another Kido before when he did it on Aizen that just activated as he got weaker and sealed him, that was amazing! Urahara is so smart, you gotta hand it to him! that was a great strategy and so many moves ahead of Aizen.

So is the Soul King not actually a person or is it since Aizen called them an "it"? o_O

That was a great conclusion and I am kinda glad I saw it in the anime before reading it in the manga so it was a surprise for me. I'll have caught up to this in the manga soon I think, I am quite close to this now. I would have caught up completely with the manga had I started reading it when I started watching it (like September 2014 - but I took some breaks in between) like I originally intended to but then I thought I wouldn't but then I started reading it last November and have read 400 chapters so far.

So after this is all filler for the rest of the season? I kinda expected this battle to last until the end of the season with how long some of the previous ones have been tbh.

I think actually it would have been a great ending for the anime and manga if it just stopped there since it started with Ichigo getting his powers and could have ended with him losing them like a sort of mirror. Plus since Aizen was present the whole time and he was gone too it kinda would've made sense.

But I can't wait to see more even though I would have been a perfect end to it tbh.

(Oh wow, I didn't realise I'd written so much lol)

Is this...is this it? Aizen was brought down?

The final Getsuga Tensho is the final because you lose your shinigami powers afterwards. Is this what happened to Kurosaki Isshin? Did he lose his powers because of it? I can't believe Ichigo lost his powers.

What will happen next? and if this the end of Aizen what the hell happens in the rest of Bleach?
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you!

I've finally seen Final Getsuga Tensho But I did not understand when he said The Final Getsuga Tensho But it's bad that she did not keep much time And it 's also bad that it takes the power of Shingami And Too Is Me its me When it became Getsuga Tensho This is somewhat unfortunate Well the episode was legendary anyway

To be honest, the ending of this episode was an unexpected, very intense battle, the final Getsuga was mindblowing to me, but at a greater loss, so what will Ichigo do with all of his powers gone? And please don't tell me they will restore it with some silly way because they already chose to make a great deal out of the transformation, to begin with, sucks it was a one attack thing. But a pretty powerful one at that.
The animation when Aizen was being sealed was phenomenal, best single-handedly animated scene in Bleach by miles. I wonder what direction will the story take from now. I feel like we're probably just entering the final stage of the story as Aizen begged the question of the soul king and his ties to the balance of the world. Now that Hueco Mundo's king is dead (That old Arrancar), only one is left, unless there was some other contender(s).

Many hype moments and good climax, yet I can't help but think that the way Aizen brought down was a letdown. Not that I expected anything else, tho, given how OP he was, I prepared myself for an unsatisfiyng defeat of his.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Is Aizen really dead tho? Does he really look like the type of person that would endure a mere seal?

I like how Aizen's defeat is literally a red-herring fallacy — they overpowered Ichigo to an absurd level and then used Urahara to distract us from that fact, making it seem like the victory came to fruition because of Urahara rather than Ichigo, just to lessen (quasi-justify) the weight of Ichi's dumb power. I liked Aizen's speech as he was getting sealed away though.

My man Ichigo reaching heights beyond his limits. It's hard to believe that he lost his powers from using this form. Maybe the writers wanted something so strong it could kill anything, including any future villain, but gave it a once-off chance.

I would have loved to see more of Getusaga Tenshous final form. Also, no one was there to witness it up close but Aizen. I wonder if Urahara even saw it.

What I can't understand, was how Aizen became conceited to a point where he didn't realize that Ichigo would surpass him. He watched Ichigo grow in every fight. Did fighting Ichigo charge the Hogokyu further?

A little bit of fan inquiry here but, does anyone else want to know what lies beyond the Palace? Can you imagine generals and supreme creatures guarding that place? Maybe an aristocratic hierarchy.

So that's the end of one of the most well known arcs in Bleach, Aizen arc. Took too many transformations out of Ichigo, too many sacrifices to finally put an end to the all mighty Aizen.

Now with Ichigo losing all of his spiritual powers, I really wonder what's next for him.

"It's finally over......isn't it Ichigo??" ~ Rukia

Whenever you complete something, whether it's your school assignment or office project or heck even your favorite anime, it really feels both sad and great. Right now I just can't help but look back.....It was an awesome arc, beginning to end, excluding the fillers that is ;)

Anyways you might as well say that the first half of Bleach is over.........And I really had a great time!!

Final Getsugatensho!!

Aizen didn't die though, just got Sealed.
i predict the seal might be broken in the future.
maybe in upcoming Thousand Year Blood War Arc?
who knows...

Ichigo losing his soul reaper power because of this, ohhh wait so Isshin also using this technique right?
that's why he lost his power but regained it back when we saw him the first time as soul reaper around episodes 100ish?

wonder what happen to Isshin that made him using Final Getsugatensho as well.

The best of Bleach right here. This episode reminds me of why Bleach was once one of my all time favorites. The original anime really should have ended here, but no doubt I'm now hyped for the coming sequel.

man, the fight felt so lackluster. a few slashes here and there and a kido and that was about it. even ichigo's form disappeared in a second (which ive seen so many times before actually starting the anime, so i was mad hyped for it)
well whatever, seems like the deal w aizen is finally over (hopefully) dude really became a slave to the hogyoku and didnt have any self control anymore
urahara w the clutch once again, what a goat

anyway, his last form against ulquiorra and the form now r srsly so fucking insanely beautiful, the design is just perfect but sad that we wont see them a lot

Mugetsu Ichigo is my favorite form and it’s not even close. The long black hair and the mask. So amazing. Made me sad that Tensa Zangetsu was crying too. Finally Aizen got sealed though. Can’t wait for TYBW in two days since there will be more info about the Soul King

uhh okay wow that was a lot faster of a climax than I thought. I liked it, but it felt a bit too brief for what it was. I thought the sealing him after being weakened by an all out attack felt justifiable, rather than him being just defeated outright. I get why ichigo was as strong as he was, but dang, stronger than aizen in general just in that form? Idk thats kinda whacky lol. Aizen made me kinda second guess whether he was really the bad guy in this at the end, maybe ichigo was kinda second guessing himself too after hearing that vague lore. Aizen looked awesome, I wish he utilized his specialties a bit more, but guess when a nuke doesnt work against your enemy you kinda just give up lol.

Wow, so Aizen is defeated just like that? Ichigo's Final Getsuga Tensho didn't last long at all. I still don't understand how Ichigo got so strong in such a short amount of time and he will lose his Shinigami powers just like his dad? I feel like the final fight is a bit rushed but still the fight was awesome
