| I think the best thing about this episode was the ED... but that's not a bad thing, the ED was particularly enjoyable, and fairly original. The episode was, well, what did you expect for a filler? Not bad at all, not excellent either. Anyway, I want to see more of Urahara this year!! we've got some decent build-up, now I wonder what they're going to do about it! lets reflect on the last year... Well, the anime ended, and then miraculously began again. (I'm not up-to-date on the manga so... :P) But the art style changed didn't it? does anyone agree? I mean, there was that one-year time-leap after the anime (almost)ended (and did Orihime's voice/personality change or what?) But I'm really amazed by how much the art style has changed since it first began, and it's definitely improved. I personally really like where the art style is gone, of course it's not perfect, and there are other shows that boast much more impressive art and animation, but it's pretty good for this kind of show. As for the plot... well... who knows. |
A pinky-promise ain't something you take lightly -- Sakata Gintoki GINTAMA... I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOUR LEVELED-UP RETURN!!!! I'M WAITING FOR YOU... KINTAMA!!!!!?!! For the rest of you waiting with me... GO READ GINTAMA NOW!! (start at 372 where the anime left off) And everyone else, GO WATCH GINTAMA!! IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!!!! |
| only watched the ending... XP |
| Zen mood charging.... <img src="http://myanimelist.net/signature/Lugaro.png" /> |
| First half wasn't that good, second half was much better, though still not great... The ending was the best part of the episode! Very creative! |
| Not bad for a filler but I hate fillers. Nice to see all the captains again. :p |
| Filler. -_- Skipped. |
| I did laugh a few times for the kite flying part, but found the kimono a bit boring. Oh well, it's filler. What do you expect? |
| I wont comment on the episode, because it was just boring. BUT new ending is really nice! Aqua Timez in Bleach one more time! |
 |
| First part was fun, second part was boring. |
 |
| Eh.Filler is Filler. But the ending is pretty good.To me,Bleach have some of the best openings & endings in anime. Foreshadowing Fun:Ichigo is gonna become a superhero. |
| My Devianart Oh & Space Brothers is still the best anime ever,in my opinion.Even when competing with Attack on Titan. |
| Best part was the new ED "Mask" Loved it! |
"Wait for the signal, and I'll meet you after dark" |
| Seems the highlight of this episode was the ED. So i'll discuss it. Pretty good, but the mask on Ichigo looked one of those guys from the Hell movie. Other than that, still good. The animation scheme was eh... tolerable. I prefer the original animation from the first few years, leading up to the Arrancar arc. |
| . |
| Really loved this New Year's Special! Kaien... xDDDDDD. I also thought Rukia looked really beaaautiful. :3 And the end was hilarious. I also love the new ED so much. I really the video, really touching. :) Aqua Timez... LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE them. :333 ^ I like Mayonaka no Orchestra better though, this song didn't fit their singing style well IMO. 5/5 |

| It was lame, but was a filler, so I don't care. But there's one thing that I liked in this episode: Kira's Skrik reference, it was hilarious. |
| It's a lovely filler. We saw soul society again and Kaien part was so fun :D :D |
 |
HenriqueC said: But there's one thing that I liked in this episode: Kira's Skrik reference, it was hilarious. Me too. Kite wasn't really good. The dance was better, but they could have at'least animated the dance. New ED was pretty cool. Not sure if it was related to the plot or just typical "Ichigo, we are your friends!" song & video. Preview looked like Ichigo is going to lose his eyes for a moment...awesome! Shinigami's cup = meh. |
| Shitty filler is shitty, but I liked the new ED! |
 |
| I'd almost forgotten Hinamori even existed. |
 |
| this ending was weirdly good, i lol'd at the smile at the end from the phone i knew toshiro was gonna try to save her, but i didnt think he would go bankai like that. well next week is back to canon, yay!! |
     |
| Yeah, throw in a filler in an alreadx crappy arc. *sigh* |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Although it was a filler, it was nice to see the squads again. |

If that was Aqua Timez I'm really starting to dig them...Star Driver OP <3 |
 |
| I was at first amused by the first half, but it got really old really fast. Kira was so getting set up, he knew it, I knew it, everyone but Hinamori knew it, I think. ^^; By the end, I was like, wth, another half an ep of this? And then thankfully they started the dance storyline, which I thought was much better than the first one. ^^; I could totally tell what Renji was doing... Rukia would have gotten a good shaking if I could have gotten my hands on her. >>; Poor Renji, shutting himself in his room. ED was interesting. :3 Always love to see sun dogs, even in animated form. I liked the music, and the animation was neat, though I'm not sure if it has anything to do with plot. Doesn't matter, though. Omake was great! :D Quincy dance recital. *lol* |

| The first episode was kind of fun, the second one kind of boring. xs |
This was a struggle to make it through this one. I am super intrigued by the ending credits. |
| I guess it was OK... Its not like Im against special epsiodes but this was lame XD Well anyway its Bleach after all so I didnt skip any part of the ep. |
 |
| Im just running through, catching up with what I have now that Bleach has ended. I read the manga so I know about the fullbring stuff and whats gonna happen etc but this episode was kinda nice. More so for the second story with Rukia and Renji. I seriously wouldnt mind if they just did a series of 'Daily Lives of Seireitei'! |
 |
| The new ED was awesome! |
 |
| I liked this one, even though it was a filler. Too bad we didn't see Rukia dancing. :< I LOVE the new ED <3 |
| I liked it~~~ |
| first part I laughed a lot...but second was boring a least sexy Byakuya saved it a little^^ |
 |
| The ED was good the episode not so much... |
 |
| First half was fine, but I didn't like the second half. Some of the characters acted OOC. Not "feeling" the ED yet. |
| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| Another boring filler. |
  |
| Meh it was okay, but still boring. Enjoyable nonetheless at least. |
 |
| Must be a pain to just wait for the english release, huh. |
 |
| I've honestly never seen a kite flying even in an anime before, let alone one that turned into an all out brawl. That's an accomplishment...right? |
| Poor Toshiro lol. Kite flying lol, so random and unexpected for this filler lol. It all turned in to a fight which was so odd lol. I liked the funny kite fight between Ikkaku and Soi Fon. I want a Kenny kite! |
 |
| The omake at the end was hilarious what the hell is the Quincy Dance Recital! xD |
| The kite part was really funny |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| Hisagi 8D!!!!! oh, feminist- wow- new 11th squad kite, and 4th.. HISAGI!!! -you just stood there and watched? he's much more relaxed and carefree in this episode than usual .w. ... prediction; kimono will be ruined. -and would you look at that. -Renji, youz needs a time wizard now -w- wow, Kaien... WOAH- that new ending... ....the extras are reenacting the episode h-uh? |
 I like to comment Episodes as i Watch them. |
| This new ending is the last one for sure, sounds amazing! I can't believe i'm about to finish the anime! |
